At the other side of the cafe, Elizabeth was elegantly perched on one of the cafe tables as she was surrounded by Coco Sun, Leigh Zhao and a bunch of girls who kept on making all sort of embarrassing noises.

“Elizabeth, you’re so cute!”

“My darling, please stay there. Let me take a photo of you.”

“Look Xiao Wei! Elizabeth’s fur looks so fluffy and comfy to touch.”

“Her eyes are so beautiful. They shine exactly like two sapphire gems.”

Displayed in front of Elizabeth was a spread of cat food. A grand total of four canned food, two servings of dried fish, two servings of snacks and one serving of frozen fish biscuit; all of them were arranged neatly in a row and presented to her.

Elizabeth lowered her head and happily gobbled down the food which was presented in front of her. As she was indulging herself in the food, she experienced a sudden jolt in her head and weird noises came out from her throat as she gagged.

‘Uh…’ She puked a mouthful of undigested food into the can.

The girls surrounding Elizabeth immediately started to panic and scream in shock.

“What’s happening to Elizabeth?”

“Is the food quality bad?”

“Boss! Elizabeth just vomited!”

“Don’t worry guys.” Zhao Yao suddenly appeared behind the girls and assured them with a warm smile. “She just ate a little too fast. Ragdolls like Elizabeth tend to have a weak digestive system; some term it as a “glass stomach”. They tend to regurgitate their food when they eat too fast or when they are unable to digest their food occasionally. No big deal.”

“Poor thing! She can’t even eat when she wants to…”

“Poor Elizabeth…”

“Boss, I really pity Elizabeth, is there nothing we can do to help her?”

Zhao Yao sighed and replied, “It’s my fault… If I had known that you guys would feed all the canned food to Elizabeth alone, I wouldn’t have sold you that many cans. Elizabeth’s stomach really can’t take that much food. Even if she eats, it is best for her to eat food that aids her digestion.”

Upon hearing Zhao Yao’s explanation, Coco Sun instantly felt remorseful for her actions while Leigh Zhao doubted his words.

Coco Sun asked, “Boss, in that case, do you sell any of those?”

One of the girls named Xiao Wei answered, “It’s not your fault boss, it’s our fault for feeding her too much. We want to buy food that is suitable for Elizabeth!”

Coco Sun tugged on Zhao Yao’s sleeve and whined, “Boss, sell it to us please!!”

Zhao Yao secretly laughed to himself as he thought: ‘It’s so easy to earn money from these women.’ He examined all three of their clothing and realized that they were all branded luxury goods; it was clear that they came from rich families. This was also the reason why he introduced so many snacks and canned food to them.

If they were normal students like Yan Xiao Qing, he definitely wouldn’t have recommended them to buy food for the cats.

In the next few days, with the help of the intelligent supercats and the effects of Celestial Beats, the cat cafe began to have more and more customers each day. It didn’t take long before Zhao Yao earned a total of over RMB10000 in profits.

Zhao Yao’s cafe gradually became more well-known as the customers helped to spread the word while some brought in their family members and friends to visit.

One day, an unexpected guest arrived at Zhao Yao’s cat cafe.

Xiao Ming stood by the front door of the cat cafe as he glanced around the cafe. He could see customers enjoying themselves in the cafe together with Baiquan and Xiao Shi Yu who were busily working their hearts out. His wandering eyes were eventually fixated on Zhao Yao who was playing computer games on his laptop at a corner of the cafe.

All this time, he utilized all the resources he could get his hands on and went through all the surveillance footage at the mall and the zoo in search of the guy.

Although Zhao Yao had been trying his best to avoid the cameras, he wasn’t a professional and when it came to fighting, it was almost impossible to avoid being filmed on the cameras.

Uncle Ho sent men to collect the surveillance footage of the mall and the zoo but Xiao Ming also secretly hired people to leave a copy for himself.

After some cross-referencing and comparison with multiple footages, Xiao Ming concluded that the person seen at the villa, mall, and zoo was the same guy. He managed to get a closer look at the guy’s face through Jin Jia Jia and the gaming streams.

Even with his identity confirmed, Xiao Ming wasn’t confident in finding that one person out of millions of people in Jiangmen City with just a picture of him.

That was until he saw…

The purpose of making his way down to the cafe was to confirm the guy’s identity and determine if the guy was indeed Zhao Yao whom he had been looking for all this while.

Seeing that it was indeed Zhao Yao who was playing computer games on his laptop, he grinned from ear to ear as he was more than 80 percent sure that he didn’t get the wrong guy.

“What a smart move; camouflaging himself in the midst of commoners. He obviously has a body of supernatural strength and extraordinary powers. Who would expect him to blend into the crowd and set up a cat cafe for himself?” Zhao Yao just became even more mysterious to Xiao Ming at the thought of that.

Xiao Ming reminded himself of his purpose of traveling to the cafe and walked into the cafe with a sincere look.

“Welcome!” Baiquan greeted him as he stepped into the cafe and started to introduce the things he could do in the cafe while passing him the menu.

Meanwhile, as Xiao Ming immersed himself in the field of Celestial Beats, he felt a strong urge to relax and loosen up.

“It is obvious that there’s something special about this cat cafe. It’s his shop, after all, it can’t simply just be a normal cafe.”

He once witnessed Zhao Yao’s powers and experienced the mysterious effect of Celestial Beats so he did not believe anything that was written on the menu. He knew it had to be some sort of trickery done by Zhao Yao.

He ordered a cup of latte and slowly walked towards Zhao Yao.

Zhao Yao seemed to have felt someone walking towards him and lifted his head up, only to see Xiao Ming standing in front of him.

“Master.” Xiao Ming greeted Zhao Yao with sincerity. Zhao Yao stared at his face and frowned, “Who are you looking for? I don’t think I know you.”

Zhao Yao panicked a little and thought to himself: ‘How did this fellow find his way here? It would be troublesome if he could recognize me. Worse still, if more people know about this, they might just associate me with the masked man.’

Xiao Ming continued, “Master, it’s me. Don’t you remember me? We met at the villa and…”

“Enough enough.” Zhao Yao knew he could no longer act his way out of it and shook his head. “Sit down and lower your volume. Don’t disturb my customers.”

Xiao Ming sat down cautiously, looked at Zhao Yao eye and hesitated to speak. He couldn’t think of a way to begin speaking.

Zhao Yao curled his lips in discontent and asked, “How did you find me?”

Xiao Ming knew he would ask him this and immediately whipped out his phone and loaded a webpage. It was a thread on a forum page titled ‘Jiangmen City’s most mysterious cat cafe’.

Zhao Yao browsed through the thread and realized that it was indeed his cat cafe on the forum. There were photos of his cafe and he was even seen in the background in one of the photos.

Zhao Yao didn’t know whether to cry or to laugh.

He sighed and whispered to Xiao Ming, “Who else knows about this besides you?”

“No one else, only me.” Xiao Ming replied immediately. “Don’t worry, I understand that you do not wish to expose your identity. I’ll make sure that this doesn’t spread to any other person.”
