    Chen Momo finished her work and glanced over to the corner, noticing that there was still no movement near the restroom.


    Senior Luo Xi had been squatting in the restroom for almost twenty minutes. Why hadn’t he come out yet?


    Could it be that this senior liked to take advantage of paid restroom breaks?


    “Mu Mu, where’s the senior?”


    Ai Xue walked back in, carrying a phone from outside, having been in touch with the university regarding some national policy support for college students’ entrepreneurship.


    She still had some savings, but most of her money was already invested in this cat café. Now she didn’t have much left, and if she could not make a decent income from it, she might have to ask her family for money to keep the café running.


    What would she say if her mother asked why she was so intent on running a loss-making cat café?


    Tell her mother she did it to have a reason to be with her senior?


    Mom would definitely say, “Isn’t that just a boyfriend?” However, senior Luo Xi didn’t seem to have that kind of affection for her. Who knows, maybe after finishing this month, he would resign the next month and leave.


    Chen Momo glanced at the restroom: “Your senior is still squatting in there, Xiao Xue. Does he have some kind of gastrointestinal disease? It’s been twenty minutes, and he isn’t out yet. If it’s not constipation, then he must be aiming for paid restroom breaks. If it’s the latter, it seems very unreliable. Aren’t you afraid the money spent can’t be earned back?”


    Ai Xue laughed, “Well, it’s my money being spent, not the cat café’s, so you don’t have to worry, Mu Mu.”


    Chen Momo was amused, “I’m not worried about the money. I’m afraid you, silly girl, will be deceived of both your emotions and finances, and you’ll come crying to me with nothing left!”


    Ai Xue playfully hit her best friend, “You’re overthinking it. Senior isn’t that kind of person.”


    “Alright, alright.”


    Chen Momo said resignedly: “Do you have a way to make him fall for you?”


    “For the time being… no.”


    Throughout her university years, Ai Xue had also tried several different strategies, both direct and indirect, but Luo Xi really seemed to have no interest in her. He even cared more about his games than talking to her on the phone!


    This semester, he even blocked her for three months because of it!


    To be honest, when she found out from Luo Xi’s roommate that he had blocked her for that reason, Ai Xue’s first reaction was to feel devastated.


    From her first year to this semester of her junior year, although they weren’t always in touch, they had developed some kind of camaraderie, right?


    I can’t even compete with a mobile game!


    But soon after, relief followed.


    The senior hadn’t blacklisted her because he got a girlfriend!


    That night, by chance, she also saw a series of pictures of Luo Xi petting cats, and since the cat café she and Mu Mu were preparing to open was about to launch, she thought of inviting Luo Xi to work at the café.


    Ai Xue remembered that Luo Xi indeed liked cats a lot.


    When she entered the university in her freshman year, she joined the Volunteer Association, although at that time she didn’t know Luo Xi since the association had too many people.


    Later in her freshman year, she signed up for a group activity, something about giving safety lectures to students at an elementary school.


    After the event, as everyone left the school and was ready to leave, they saw a white cat that had been run over by a car lying on the road.


    All the volunteers disgustingly avoided the bloodied cat carcass, except for the senior who stayed behind after everyone left and buried the cat in the nearby farmland.


    She left later than the others because of something and ended up helping Luo Xi out of curiosity after seeing his actions.


    Ai Xue still remembered their conversation at that time.


    “Senior, why bother burying it? Couldn’t you just throw it in the trash bin by the roadside?”


    Luo Xi had replied: “No particular reason. I just saw its fur and remembered the cat back at home. If I hadn’t seen it, it wouldn’t have mattered, but having seen it, I would feel uneasy if I did nothing.”


    “Does your family raise cats?”


    “We used to. Now the cat lives with my grandma. Considering its age, it must be about… Oh, thanks for your help. How about I treat you to milk tea?”


    That was their first meeting. Sёar?h the Novёl?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.


    There weren’t any dramatic or heart-stopping storylines.


    Sometimes, liking someone is just because of the small things they do.


    “Excuse me, is this the cat café? Do you have any sets for sale?”


    A young person dressed in white clothes walked into the shop and smiled at the two people at the counter.


    Ai Xue put away her memories.


    “Hello, customer.”


    Chen Momo quickly came forward and said, “Our cat café has just opened with discounts. The single person cat-petting coupon is only 50 yuan, and you get to pick one out of five beverages, plus we throw in snacks and toys that the cats love!”


    “Of course, you could also sign up for a membership card for even more discounts. Top up with 1000 yuan and get an extra 200 yuan for free.”


    “I’ll just have the single person package, and for the beverage, I’ll have a cup of your coffee here.”


    The young person took out their phone to scan the code, then found an empty seat to sit down. He didn’t seem to have any intention of petting cats, just sat there playing with his phone.


    At this time, Luo Xi came out of the bathroom and saw Ai Xue and Chen Momo whispering to each other; he wondered if they were really about to fire him.


    He actually quite liked this job, anyway. It was better than being squeezed by his superiors in that company, plus there were lots of little kittens to pet.


    Too bad cute cat-eared girls didn’t exist in reality…


    Luo Xi approached and said, “Sorry, I had a bit of a bad stomach yesterday.”


    “No worries, senior. Just do as you see fit.”


    Ai Xue said somewhat apologetically, “The job we assigned you was to feed the cats, basically a cat caretaker, but in reality, it’s just doing odd jobs. You can learn more about the various aspects of our cat café, and I will hire more hands later on, but for now, I can only ask you to bear with us for a while.”


    Chen Momo muttered under her breath, “And then before you know it, he turns into the boss.”


    “Mu Mu, what are you saying!”


    The two girls immediately started tussling with each other.


    Luo Xi smiled and looked towards the inside of the cat café.


    There were about twenty customers at the moment; the shop could accommodate up to 30 customers at the same time, any more than that would reduce the comfort level.


    Suddenly, Luo Xi’s gaze met with that of a young man in white sitting on a sofa.


    The other party held a phone in their hands and smiled faintly at him, mouthing the words silently:


    “I’ve found you.”


    Luo Xi narrowed his eyes, his sense of alert heightened.


    Who is this person?


    He sidestepped the two women and sat down opposite the young man in white, on the sofa across from him.


    Luo Xi said softly, “Who are you?”


    The young man smiled and replied, “Just someone with the same kind of identity as you.”


    “You’re a college student too?”


    The young man laughed and said, “Haha, I graduated long ago. You should know I’m not talking about a regular identity.”


    A thought flickered through Luo Xi’s mind: “How did you find me? Are you with the Dreamland Travel Bureau?”


    “I’m not one of them. As for how I found you, look at this.”


    The young man rummaged through his bag and eventually pulled out a roasted pig trotter.


    Luo Xi: “…”


    Was this the roasted pig trotter he lost last night?


    “I won’t hide it from you; I have a talent that allows me to locate someone by an object they’ve touched before,” the young man said with a smile.


    “I only had my suspicions at first, but now I’m sure. Bro, your counter-surveillance awareness isn’t up to scratch.”


    Luo Xi said sternly, “What do you want from me?”


    The young man looked up at Luo Xi, grinning broadly:


    “Bro, looking to buy some hacks?”


    Luo Xi: “???”
