Chapter Six: Cat Meows (Part Two)

Translated by Lime

Translator's note: In this chapter, Lin Lan fully realizes that she is able to understand cats, and we finally meet Snowflake! Again, the actual meaning of the cats will be (in parentheses). Also keep in mind that Wang Xiuzhi = Mother Lin and Lin Youyu = Father Lin.

Please keep in mind that chapters 6-8 have not been thoroughly edited or re-translated yet so there will be mistakes.

On the first day back home, Lin Lan realized that she was able to understand the language of cats.

And it was already determined that this wasn't an illusion.

When normal people would encounter this scenario, they would think 'Why?' or 'How could this have happened to me all of a sudden?' Lin Lan was no exception.

After recalling her experiences in the recent past, Lin Lan remembered that on her trip to Greece, there were the stories about the Greek gods, the wishing pool of the moon goddess, and the joking legends of the locals. Finally, she thought of when she said goodbye to those two stray cats at the front of the hotel.

It was true that when she got into the car, the two cats meowed at her.

She had this special ability the last day she left Greece, and it was most likely because she had made that wish at the moon goddess' wishing pool the day before.

That day, she had dropped the coin, and the spirit answered her wish.

... The whole situation sounded like nonsense. If it didn't happen to her, Lin Lan would have only regarded it as a random internet paragraph joke.

But now the internet joke had become true.

This was the first time she realized, and covered her stomach with grief.

"It's a big loss!" Lin Lan's face filled with remorse, "If I knew earlier that my wish would really come true, I would never have made that wish!"

Her appearance was exactly the same as Father Lin when he sighed about the high-end buildings in the street right across from them.

Look at what she missed! This loss was more than one billion yuan!

Thinking more and more, Lin Lan's heart ached. She turned to the snack shop with a distressed look and picked up a shopping basket and quickly filled it up.

She needed a large amount of cola, potato chips, and candies in order to comfort her heart.

As the owner of the building's daughter...bah, the landlord's daughter, the shopkeeper recognized Lin Lan and gave her a discount. Lin Lan smiled and thanked her.

"Did you request a holiday in order to come home?" The shopkeeper asked before Lin Lan left.

"No, I resigned." Lin Lan stopped and turned back. Sooner or later, everyone in the building would know anyways, so it was better to just be upfront about it. "I'll find another job here. I won't keep running away to larger cities."

The shopkeeper was stunned at hearing these words, and then nodded vigorously, saying, "You should have done this from the beginning, how could it be so easy in a different city. Your mom used to talk to me about this, but now she doesn't need to. Those youngsters who went to go work in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, how many of them grew up there? Are most of them not going home still? Like I said, being at home is the best. Lan Lan, staying here and finding a job is more convenient. If you start dating here, no one will dare bully you."

The shopkeeper's words came out nonstop, but in the end, they were genuine.

Lin Lan just smiled and didn't speak again, carrying her bag out the shop.
