: Until Death Do You Guys Apart
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When the Mercedes-Benz stopped at the entrance, it didn’t matter if Xiao Niu was ready to make a payment, or if other people were choosing pets; they all paused for a moment, and stared at the car doors curiously. They were curious as to what kind of cat Xiao Yan would bring out. In the end, from the co-pilot seat, she took out…a cat carrier—the cat did not show its face at the moment.
It would be false to say that Zhang Zian wasn’t the least bit curious either. He also quite wanted to know what kind of temper the cat had that was so bad. Xiao Yan locked the car doors, and walked into the shop carrying the cat carrier. The gazes from the people around her made her feel a bit awkward. She coughed lightly and said to Zhang Zian,
Should I let it out here? It will toss around ferociously the moment it enters the bathroom…


As you please, anywhere is fine,
Zhang Zian replied.
She placed the cat carrier gently on the floor, unzipped it, and softly said,
Rainy, come greet everyone.
A grayish-black colored cat paw stretched out first, and was followed closely by a cat’s face that was speckled with white spots. Although the whole view was not seen, Zhang Zian had already determined that this was a hybrid of the Dragon-Li cat. Its special characteristic was the feature of its high nose bridge—foreign cats usually had flat and collapsed nose bridges , but this was the exact opposite of the ethnic characteristics of the people of the region.

Master, isn’t this a Dragon-Li cat? It’s similar to the cat I have at home!
exclaimed Wang Qian, who was raising a Dragon-Li cat a home. Zhang Zian nodded in recognition of his judgment. Black Jack and Gu Tianle exclaimed in astonishment,
The wealthy would actually raise cheap cats like this?
Their eyes turned upon the Mercedes car parked outside. Suspicion rose in their hearts, and they discussed in confusion,
Is she really wealthy or faking to be wealthy? This car can’t be rented, right?
Their discussion was a bit loud, and Lea was afraid that Xiao Yan would feel awkward or that the crowd would start to quarrel, so she tried to smooth things over by saying,
What cheap cats? As long as they’re cute, right? I think this cat is pretty cute.
She crouched down to pet the cat’s head as she spoke, and Xiao Yan hastily stopped her.
Be careful!
This cat’s fur immediately flared up, it made a whole circle with its body accompanied by a scream, and stretched its front paw upwards like lightning to scratch Lea’s hand! Considering the speed of reaction of a human, Lea would definitely not be able to dodge this bloody disaster. It seemed as if additional claw marks would have to appear on that small chubby hand.
Just at this time, Fina, who was lying on the princess bed, abruptly stood up, and cried out with a meow! The Dragon-Li’s claws instantly shrunk back even faster than they had probed out. It hasn’t had the chance to observe its surroundings when it came out of the cat carrier, and had not noticed Fina. Due to the many people, many cats, and many dogs, it also had not distinguished Fina’s smell. Fina’s rebuking cry actually scared it so much it rolled around in place, and then lay down, afraid to move. Lea was shocked. She retracted her hand and put it back into her pockets; her face was pale. The crowd was silent, and all eyes gazed back and forth between Fina and the Dragon-Li cat. One, they were surprised at how wild this Dragon-Li cat was, and two, they were shocked at its attitude of surrender towards Fina. Black Jack couldn’t help but to inquire again,
Is this golden cat really not for sale?
Zhang Zian didn’t bother to answer.
Xiao Yan apologized to Lea,
Sorry, did it hurt you? I didn’t have time to say that my cat doesn’t let strangers touch it at all…
Lea was very generous. She had already recovered by now and laughed,
It’s alright, it’s alright. It’s my bad. Everyone should learn from me as well, and not casually touch a stranger’s cats or dogs.

Black Jack was met with a mild rebuff by Zhang Zian and exclaimed while angrily touching his nose,
I really don’t understand why someone would raise this type of cat. It’s cheap and worthless, and its temper is so bad!

Not only did he not understand, but other people more or less felt awkward as well. To raise a cat like this was certainly very hard work, and it would definitely wrong people. You would have to compensate money if it hurt others, and the main point was that the cat itself wasn’t a valuable cat, so was it worth accommodating like this? This Dragon-Li cat was raised very well. Its body was robust and symmetrical, and its fur and beard shone. Even its cries were vigorous; the owner must have spent a lot of effort on it. No matter what others thought, Xiao Yan still loved it dearly. She stroked its back with her scarred hands and gently comforted it.

Do you guys know how to choose cats?
Zhang Zian asked suddenly. This topic was strange and unexpected, and everyone’s thoughts were forcefully turned around.

This still has to be questioned? The breed should be picked first, of course, and then pick the ones with good conditions.
Black Jack looked on with disapproval, with an expression of,
I read little books, don’t lie to me
.
This opinion represented the majority of the people, and a lot of people in Snowy’s live broadcast room agreed.
I think that health is the most important. No matter what type of breed, it could not be exchanged for health. Cats aren’t flower vases,
Lea replied. People who already had a cat or a few uncle cats even more so agreed with Lea’s point of view—nothing could be exchanged for health.
Li Kun was moved with a sudden inspiration, and felt that this was the chance to prove himself in front of master. He thus rushed to answer,
Master, you’ve always said to choose cats with characteristics. Disciple thinks that you should see if the cat draws near to humans. If the cat’s temperament is short-tempered…
He glanced at the Dragon-Li cat as he spoke.
Then it shouldn’t be included in the range of selection.


You guys are all correct.
Zhang Zian agreed with their views first, then changed his tone and immediately said,
These are all important reference factors for choosing cats, but they are not the most important. There is one condition that surpasses all these factors.
Everyone looked at each other, and there were non-stop guesses in the live broadcast room. Even more people requested that the store manager should stop talking in riddles, and to just directly say it. Zhang Zian pointed at Fina, then at the Dragon-Li cat, and spoke,
What do you guys think; which cat is better among these two?
Fina, who was already a bit angry at the Dragon-Li cat’s arrogance, moved her ears and narrowed her eyes. She looked directly at Zhang Zian with cold eyes that dispersed a murderous intention like the sharp edges of a blade. How could he compare her honorable identity with an ordinary Dragon-Li cat?
At the unattended corner of the staircase, Galaxy keenly felt the murderous intention. He stared at Fina with countless stars shining in his eyes. After a moment, the stars disappeared, and Galaxy returned to his usual state of looking charmingly naïve, because he saw the upcoming future. The crowd was surprised for a moment as well. Those two cats could not be compared. Although they did not know what species Fina was, her manner was outstanding; anyone would think that Fina was better. However, Xiao Yan whispered in a low voice,
I think my cat is better.

Zhang Zian nodded slowly,
That’s right. Just like how humans fall in love at first sight, the most important thing is fate of the eyes for this so-called choosing of the cats and dogs.


Fate of the eyes has nothing to do with the type of breed. It has nothing to do with lineage, condition, health, or characteristics. There’s nothing more marvelous than fate of the eyes. Once the fate of the eyes meet, it’s like the wedding vows of a Western wedding. Whether it was for better or for worse, for rich or for poor, in health or in sickness, in happy times or sad times, to accompany each other for life from now on, and never give up until death do you guys apart.
In the end, Zhang Zian concluded,
Instead of saying that you chose the cat, it would be better to say that you both chose each other.
The bullet screen in the live broadcast room was at rest, and everyone present was totally quiet.
Fina’s eyes re-opened, and her gaze grew brighter and brighter. They were like a pair of aquamarine moons that emitted brilliant light. Notifications rang on Zhang Zian’s cellphone.
