Chapter 7: Deep Night After Night

Later, the bed project turned into an absolute failure.

Yu Linfei didn’t have the heart to ask Little Black to sleep in that chaotic-looking and embarrassing 囧 bed. He sat on the sofa discouraged and held Wen Cheng in his arms, muttering, “Aiya, why is this bed so difficult to make? It’s so troublesome, don’t you think so Little Black?”

… It’s not that the bed is too difficult to make, but that you’re too stupid. Wen Cheng motionlessly let Yu Linfei stroke him, feeling drowsy… in fact, to some extent, it was good to be a cat. Besides eating, there was also sleeping.

“Eh?” Like he suddenly thought of something important, Yu Linfei suddenly called out.

“Meow,” he replied languidly. Wen Cheng was too lazy to lift his eyelids.

“Little Black, you haven’t eaten yet.” He’d suddenly remembered that He Yi had told him not to let the kitten go hungry. Yu Linfei held Wen Cheng and went to the corner of the living room where the cat food dish was.

On the food tray was the premium cat food brought by Qin Xin, with the tidy kitty litter box beside it.

Yu Linfei put Wen Cheng next to the cat food and crouched down to touch Wen Cheng’s head. “Little Black has to give up milk. Hurry up and eat, and gege will play with you after you eat.”

Who wants to eat cat food! Wen Cheng snorted in disdain and directly pointed his butt at the dish.

“… Don’t have such a bad attitude.” Yu Linfei had to force a smile and brought the plate up to Wen Cheng’s face. “Eat a little.”

“…” Wen Cheng continued to ignore him.

“Okay… let’s not eat cat food first. Let’s start with an appetizer, yes?” There was really nothing he could do about Little Black. Yu Linfei had no choice but to search through the bag Qin Xin brought for half a day before he finally found a can of cat food.

“… Meow.” Do you think you can buy me by switching to a can? What a naive boy!! Wen Cheng was very disdainful at Yu Linfei’s attempt to seduce him, looking with contempt in his eyes.

“… This is tuna with corn…” Studying the can in his hand, Yu Linfei took a look at Wen Cheng and asked, “Will you eat this?”

“…” Wen Cheng nearly rolled his eyes. How did he think he could answer his words!

“… Oh, it smells good.” Using a screwdriver to open the can, Yu Linfei involuntarily swallowed a mouthful of saliva… he seemed to have forgotten to have breakfast…

“No?” Passing the can to Wen Cheng, Yu Linfei thought, “This should taste good, it’s so fragrant, Little Black really doesn’t want it?”

Was he the kind of person who’d bend over for a can! Wen Cheng proudly raised his head –– don’t joke, just using a can to make him compromise, Yu Linfei was too… huh? What was Yu Linfei doing? Finding that Yu Linfei had really begun to try and eat his own can of cat food, Wen Cheng’s hair immediately exploded out!! Was Yu Linfei a beast!! Even the cat’s canned food!

“… Aiya, it tastes really good.” With a fork that came out of nowhere, Yu Linfei ate with extraordinary relish. Although his idea at the beginning was just to try the taste of cat food… but he didn’t expect… that this cat food was no worse than canned human food.

“Meowu, meowu!!!” Seeing that his food was almost completely eaten by this unreliable owner, Wen Cheng was furious. He immediately bit Yu Linfei’s trousers and was eager to bite his trouser legs right off!

“… Haha.” Yu Linfei knew that he was in the wrong, laughed twice, and handed the can over to Wen Cheng.

But this handing over was no good, as it let Wen Cheng see clearly that in the can, apart from a few scattered pieces of corn, the tuna had all turned into floating clouds. Wen Cheng felt that living was too sad… and then, he ran away.

Wen Cheng, hiding under the sofa, had been seriously hurt. Why was the world so unfair to him? He was killed by this son of a bitch Yu Linfei and still had to be kept by him, kept, even his cans weren’t let go, so hateful… wuwuwu!!!

Yu Linfei knew that things were bad when he saw Wen Cheng running away. For a while, he couldn’t help but laugh at how he couldn’t resist eating Wen Cheng’s canned food. However, his sofa wasn’t as mobile as He Yi’s. If Little Black didn’t come out, he really wouldn’t be able to get to him. In desperation, Yu Linfei could only rummage through the bags again.

Fortunately, Teng Fengyu had also bought him another can with this flavor.

Opening the can and putting it in front of the gap of the sofa, Yu Linfei thought of a strange uncle luring a child. He kept calling to Wen Cheng, who was shrinking under the sofa. “Little Black, Little Black, come out and eat… Gege opened another one for you… be a good boy, this time gege won’t rob you, good boy… be obedient.”

The result was that after half a day of coaxing, Wen Cheng ignored all of Yu Linfei’s advances, as he was determined to stay under the sofa. He thought scornfully, who cares about your rotten can? Wen Cheng, with all of his pride, swallowed down a mouthful of saliva and touched his deflated stomach with his paw. He decided to stand against Yu Linfei until the end!

When Yu Linfei saw that his attempt at abduction didn’t work, he could do nothing but get up from the floor. As everyone knew, once cats started acting tsundere… it was really a terrible thing… Although he wanted to wait for him to come back out once he was hungry, when he thought of all the dust underneath the sofa, he started to worry that a kitten with such a weak immune system could get sick because of this. Moreover, if the cat enthusiast He Yi knew that he’d angered the cat by stealing Little Black’s canned food… he couldn’t let himself be laughed at to death!

“Who made canned food taste so good?” He began to seriously consider getting a new couch with no gaps beneath, as he sat on the couch and… involuntarily… ate from the newly opened can with a fork. He shouldn’t be blamed. While eating, he tried to think of excuses to comfort himself. Yu Linfei thought, really, why did the canned food taste so good… and he didn’t have breakfast again. Well, next time he would ask Teng Fengyu to buy more of this flavor. Though hey, he didn’t know what the other cans tasted like…

Wen Cheng, lying on his stomach under the sofa, didn’t know that his food was going to be completely eaten by this deceiving owner. He laid there and thought that if Yu Linfei came to persuade him again, he’d give Yu Linfei some face and come out. However, he hadn’t seen Yu Linfei come to coax him for a while. Depressed, Wen Cheng looked at his shrunken stomach again and decided to go out and see what was happening.

But as he looked, his lungs almost burst in anger!! Yu Linfei, that lying bastard, was actually sitting by the table eating his own canned cat food!! There were also several empty cans beside the table; it seemed that if he wasn’t stopped, he would finish all the cans!!

“Meow meow meow!!” A feeling of grief swept through Wen Cheng’s whole body. It was like he was possessed by a Tibetan mastiff, shooting like a bullet towards Yu Linfei –– or rather the leg of his chair.

The moment when his head hit the chair leg, black bloomed before Wen Cheng’s eyes, then colorful spots of light appeared, revolving around his head… The spinning Wen Cheng fell directly to the ground.

Yu Linfei was scolded, severely scolded by He Yi.

He held the phone far from his ear and could still hear He Yi’s roar. He even had the illusion that He Yi’s saliva would come out through the phone… well, he deserved to be scolded.

Looking at the Little Black lying in the basket on the verge of death, Yu Linfei began to thoroughly reflect on himself. He Yi was still roaring in his ear, “Yu Linfei, are you a man!! You have to steal even the cat’s canned food!! How old are you, huh? You also let Little Black hit his head!! I’m telling you, if you can’t raise him well then I’ll raise him myself!!! Don’t you know that you have to hide from the cat when stealing the cat food, or else the cat will be very angry!! Next time, pay attention!!”

“You mean I can eat it but have to do it secretly?” Yu Linfei was very focused.

“Yes,” He Yi, lacking in confidence, responded in a low voice, “Which flavor do you think tastes the best?”

“…” Yu Linfei.

And so, the two owners discussed the variety and taste of cat food. He Yi, as an experienced cat owner, recommended several cat food brands that he liked very much.

Wen Cheng started to seriously think about how to kill Yu Linfei as he overheard the phone call from the basket. He couldn’t stand this bastard anymore!!! Meow!! With tears in his eyes, he felt the bulging bump on his head and really felt that he was about to die.

“Okay, let’s not talk anymore, Little Black seems to be awake,” Yu Linfei said to He Yi, hearing the small meow coming from the basket, “It doesn’t seem like a big problem that he hit his head, right?”

“I don’t think so, a kitten can only be so strong.” He Yi didn’t take Yu Linfei’s worry too seriously. To be honest, he felt that Yu Linfei wasn’t really worried about Little Black’s head, but rather about how to please Little Black. As chinchilla cats had a very strong ego… if Yu Linfei kept angering him… he didn’t know how many white-eyed looks (1) Yu Linfei would receive in the future.

“Oh, that’s good,” Yu Linfei said, “I’ll hang up first.”

“Okay.” He Yi said.

Hanging up the phone, Yu Linfei picked up the two cans left and headed over to Wen Cheng.

“Try it, little kitty… Gege left you two of the best kind.” Yu Linfei smiled through his guilty conscience.

“Meow.” He wasn’t in the mood to make trouble with Yu Linfei again, with his hungry stomach sticking to his back and his sore forehead. Wen Cheng let Yu Linfei feed him from the can before he fell listlessly back in the basket.

Looking at Little Black’s appearance, Yu Linfei felt deeply distressed. He carefully avoided Wen Cheng’s injury and gently touched his drooping ears, comforting, “Gege will buy you more canned food in the future. Don’t be angry, Little Black, okay?”

What a fart. Wen Cheng rolled his eyes. Yu Linfei, don’t think that you can smooth this over like this, I’m determined to avenge this!!

The author has something to say:

= = Yu Linfei is not an excellent owner… this chowhound is doomed to never be a good owner _ (: з 」∠) _

Translator Notes: Chowhound can also mean good-for-nothing. I can not believe this chapter. I really can’t. A lot of the comments on jjwxc were about eating cat food too… apparently the fish ones don’t taste good…

I love this chapter. I would advise readers not to try cat food though.

1. White-eyed look is a dissatisfied look, or one where someone is looking down on the other. The idea is that the eyes roll over or down to show the white part of the eyes. I usually translate this to rolling eyes.
