Chapter 515: Having a Girlfriend So Soon?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Zhang Zian was eating lunch while sitting on his recliner. He occasionally checked on the time.

Lu Yiyun finished her meal quickly by the cashier's desk in the outer room. She was really looking forward to this new and exciting trip.

The Zhonghua Road Primary School that Little Celery attended was actually Zhang Zian's old school as well. All the kids from that neighborhood went to study there. But he hadn't visited his primary school since he had graduated, and the campus must look much different than it did in his memory.

Since his shop was close by the school, he and Lu Yiyun would arrive on time even if they left a little bit later. What he was worried about was the possibility that Wang Qian and Li Kun would drink too much at their party and wouldn't show up at the shop on time. If that happened, he would have to make last minute plans with Lu Yiyun. They alone couldn't manage to bring that many kittens and puppies to the school.

"Let me ask you a question. Why do you think I should go with you?" Relaxing on the cat tree, Fina peered down at him.

Zhang Zian wiped his mouth and replied with a preplanned answer. "To show off cats' abilities, of course. Think about it. A lot of people, including students and their family members, will be there at the school celebration."

He put down the lunch box and used his fingers to demonstrate the numbers. "Nowadays, children are treasured like jewels by their family members. One child will bring at least one parent to their school, and in some cases, kids will even bring all of their family members. Do you know how many people will be there at the school? Don't you think this is a good chance for you and the other kittens to display the skillful nature of cats?"

Fina frowned and seriously considered what he was saying.

He had to get Fina to the school, otherwise the situation there would be too messy. If Fina was there, at least he wouldn't have to worry about the kittens getting lost.

"I'm bringing both puppies and kittens to the school. You don't want to see the dogs steal the spotlight from cats, do you?" He knew that Fina was very concerned about the reputation of cats, and he used these possibilities as bait to persuade it.

Fina accepted the bait. It mused, "In that case, it really is a good opportunity. Imagine that, you're nothing more than an ordinary human, but you're still considerate of us, the highly acclaimed cats..."

Zhang Zian said shamelessly, "Of course! I'm a selfless man who cares about the world."

"Bulls**t!" Snowy Lionet spat. Then it said to Fina, "Your Majesty, let me go with you!"

"This is none of your business!" Zhang Zian rejected its request. "Just stay here in the pet shop!"

"No, I'm going! Or I'll castrate you while you're asleep!" Snowy Lionet threatened him.

Richard fluttered its wings and flew onto his shoulder, "Quack! I'm going with you, too!"

Zhang Zian didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Okay, then let's all go together. The school is just walking distance away anyways." He said decisively, "Grandpa Tea and Galaxy, come with us."

"Meow! Isn't there going to be a lot of people at the primary school?" Galaxy was playing hide and seek with Wendy. When it heard the conversation between Zhang Zian and Fina, it knew that a large amount of students and parents would be showing up at the anniversary celebration that day.

"It doesn't matter, we're considered as staff members since we're there to provide props. We'll probably have access to the back stage. Little Celery and her classmates are performing the last show in the celebration, so there won't be as many people backstage by that time," explained Zhang Zian.

"Meow! Galaxy wants to go!" said Galaxy eagerly.

When Richard showed up at Binhai University, Old Time Tea followed Zhang Zian and went to the university as well. Sure enough, it wanted to have a look at a primary school this time too. But Old Time Tea had to travel in its invisible state, otherwise its appearance would be even more noticeable than Uncle Li's Christmas costume.

While he was making the agreements with the elves, the door to the shop opened. Wang Qian and Li Kun rushed in, one after another, with flushed faces. Apparently, they did drink at the party.

"Sir we're late! Please reprimand us!"

"No, you're not. You're here just in time. How'd your final exams go?" Zhang Zian asked casually, making Old Time Tea invisible.

Wang Qian and Li Kun cried bitterly, "Sir, please don't bring up such a sensitive topic! We can only hope that we didn't fail every subject!"

Zhang Zian smiled, but scolded them, "Of course you flunked your exams, you never focus on studying! Forget it, just help me pack. Wait a minute, are you still sober?"

"Absolutely! The only reason we drank a little alcohol was because our classmates were encouraging us to drink at the party!" They swore to Zhang Zian that they were sober. However, their breaths still smelled like alcohol. Even if they weren't drunk, they must have drank a decent amount of liquor.

As long as they could still walk, Zhang Zian didn't care whether they were drunk or not. He immediately began assigning tasks to them. "Well, Wang Qian, you can go outside to bring in some carriers. Li Kun, you go to that tricycle-renting place and borrow a tricycle."

Wang Qian and Li Kun set out to take care of their responsibilities.

Lu Yiyun turned off the computer at the cashier desk and helped Wang Qian and Zhang Zian put puppies and kittens into the carriers.

When Li Kun returned on a tricycle, they worked together to load the cages onto it. After the tricycle was loaded, Li Kun would ride it to the school. Wang Qian was also carrying two carriers in his hands. By principle, Zhang Zian wanted to bring as many puppies and kittens as possible to give the school a more impressive show. Lu Yiyun also brought Jasmine with her to support Zhang Zian's plan.

Zhang Zian put leashes on Famous and Zhan Tian, who would be the main act. All of the kittens and puppies were merely frosting on the cake.

For the past several mornings, he had been playing games with Zhan Tian in the green field behind his shop. Zhan Tian had become much closer to him. Despite this, he wasn't sure if it would still be obedient while pulling the sled. All he could do was cross his fingers and hope for the best.

When everything was ready, Zhang Zian pulled down the metal shutter and locked the door. On it, he posted a note that read: Dear customers, please come back tomorrow. The shop owner has a girlfriend and they've headed out on a Christmas Eve date.

Wang Qian widened his hazy and drunk eyes. He asked, "Sir...do you think anyone will actually believe that?"

Li Kun, who was usually very cautious, echoed his concern. "Yeah, he's right. Sir…it would be impossible for you to find a girlfriend. Absolutely impossible!"

"It's a bad lie! It only confirms that you don't have a girlfriend!"

"You think you're being clever, but you're only lying to yourself!"

The two of them took turns speaking. Lu Yiyun wanted to laugh, but didn't dare do so. She had to turn around and pretend to cough a few times.

Zhang Zian exclaimed, "And you told me that you guys didn't drink that much? This is your f**king alcohol speaking!"

"It's true, we didn't drink that much!" said Wang Qian desperately.

"Yeah and we could only tell you the truth after drinking!" Li Kun knew he was in trouble. He tried to defend himself, but he only made himself look worse.

Zhang Zian remained calm and decided that he should not lower himself to the same level as these two drunkards. He was certain that some customers would believe what he wrote in the note, and that tomorrow, someone would ask him whether his girlfriend was beautiful or not.

"Let's go! We're heading to the Zhonghua Road Primary School!" he pointed in its direction confidently.

Wang Qian and Li Kun praised him at the same time "To our great Master, who has always bullied the weak and feared the tough!"
