Chapter 44: The Counterattack of Madam Black Cat (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
“…” Xia Liang was being rubbed on the chin.
Although she as a human being refused, her cat instinct overtook her human mind. She enjoyed Ji Yue’s soft chin-scratch and even lifted her chin up a bit so that Ji Yue could give a better scratch.
“Haha…” Ji Yue chuckled at her enjoyment. He rubbed her even more gently and started to stroke between her ears.
A while later, Xia Liang realized that something was not right. Looking at what she was doing, she couldn’t believe it!
Now that she was in a cat’s body, did it mean she would act like a cat?
Xia Liang raised her hand, no, her little paw to cover her face. She was so desperate and helpless.
However in Ji Yue’s eyes, she was super cute and adorable to do that.
He had never seen a cat covering its face with its paw. He had this weird thought in his mind.
Was she shy or what?
He saw himself as a rational and prudent man who saw things with logic judgment and evidence. But how could he have such an absurd idea now?
Ji Yue was surprised by his reaction. But then he came to his senses. He must have encountered too many strange things altogether lately, which drove him a bit crazy.
Despite this, he still moved Xia Liang’s paw away and held her in front of him, then pressed his face against Xia Liang’s.
“Meow!” What are you doing?
A big face just approached her all of sudden. Xia Liang was startled and terrified to push away Ji Yue’s pretty face.
That was how Ji Yue was slapped by a cat on the face.
As Xia Liang didn’t use her sharp nails, he didn’t feel a thing but a soft and comfortable ball of fur on his face.
He was not mad at all. Instead, he got her paw in his hand and kissed it.
“Meow!” Let go of me!
Xia Liang’s eyes were wide open and she struggled to get away.
“Good girl, don’t move!” Ji Yue put her on his lap and stroke her head gently.
Xia Liang stopped struggling after a while.
On one hand, she was too small to get away from Ji Yue.
On the other hand, she could touch her Light Brain with the other paw while she was lying on Ji Yue’s lap because as Ji Yue was holding her paw and she was on her belly, she didn’t have to worry about falling over again.
But her paw was too small. After she tried so many times, she didn’t open the Light Brain until she was nearly at the edge of dead beat. Then she raised her paw and started to check it through…
Ji Yue was amused while he was watching her the whole time. But he didn’t laugh out loud this time because that way he might disturb Xia Liang and he might not have a chance to keep enjoying such a funny thing.
In his eyes, Xia Liang was like playing a game by touching two fingers together, then moving them apart again and again.
It was a boring game in fact, not funny at all.
The funny thing was that you had never seen a cat playing fingers and she repeated it again and again tirelessly.
Besides, that cat got a serious face while she was staring at her own paws.
Ji Yue was deeply intrigued by her weird actions. He just stayed still and watched her patiently, expecting to see more that he had never seen.
Xia Liang checked her credits . Only 25 credits left now!25?!
She was shocked. She couldn’t believe what she saw. She had to check it again.
It was still 25!
Why only 25? What happened?
Even if her mission to save the female lead failed, she killed the supporting female lead after all, stopped the war between the immortals and evils, meaning the world didn’t collapse…
Hold on. World collapse?
Was it because Jun Wuqing eventually turned into an evil and chose to ruin the world? Was it the reason her mission was judged as a failure?
She managed to check the status of her last mission with her little paw.
As she expected!
The system judged that she failed her mission. She didn’t get any rewards and even lost 50 credits for it!
She was devastated to see the result!
All she had ever done before was in vail. She had to start from scratch. And she had to complete this mission as a cat!
She was mad about Jun Wuqing. What didn’t he listen to her? Why did he choose…
She tried everything to save him. But he chose to die and destroy the whole world…
After a long time, she calmed herself down and accepted what had happened.
The past was the past. She couldn’t undo it. So she had to move on.
She opened another interface to check the current mission. But she was confused by what she saw.
It simply said,
The Nangong family was a prestigious family that could be traced back to ancient time. It had a history of a few hundred years. The family was highly respected because of its wealth and power that could affect a few countries.
However, weird things had happened to the family for recent one year. The old lady died of an illness and the old master was still sick in bed. Their eldest son went missing and their second daughter went mad, even the youngest son ended not so well.
The entire family was torn apart and all fortunes were swept away like it was cursed.
Her mission was to find the reason and remove the curse.
Remark: due to lack of information, this is all information the system obtains.
Xia Liang turned off the Light Brain and realized that she had no idea what was going on even after reading her mission.
For starters, who was the man holding her?
“Meow!”
She covered her face again, speechless.
Somebody help! She was desperate to know how to communicate with a human as a cat.
