“That troublesome?” Zhao Yao listened to the bearded man and gazed at the bustling Parisian streets while frowning. “Currently, it is 3pm. There are six more hours before the meeting.”
Roly Poly saw Zhao Yao’s expression and lay on his head, saying, “Zhao Yao, why don’t we tour Paris?
There are a lot of famous tourist attractions like Louvre museum, the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame cathedral and the Champs-Élysées. Let’s indulge in the romantic Parisian atmosphere. Shall we have an afternoon tea at the Alfresco café?”
“What is there to see? Just watch tourist videos.” Zhao Yao pondered, “Shall I go home and have homemade chicken? After staying abroad for many days, home is still the most comfortable.”
Elizabeth scoffed, “I don’t want to go home. I want to tour the Eiffel Tower and take pictures on the Champs-Élysées!!”
Zhao Yao coaxed, “That is not fun. The most expensive places are tourist attractions. Do the French tour these lousy places? If you want to have fun, go to places that the locals frequent. The tourist attractions are meant to earn foreigners’ money. The food is expensive and tasteless. You will definitely regret it.”
“I want to take pictures.” Elizabeth said with excitement, “I’d like to send the pictures to my group of friends, like Sweetie Pie, so that they know I am in Paris.”
Elizabeth got to know Sweetie Pie on the internet and she was part of her group of friends. Zhao Yao said, “Elizabeth, that is an incorrect attitude. Are we here to take pictures? Touring is immersing yourself in the local food and culture and not just taking pictures.”
Elizabeth frowned, “If I don’t take pictures, who will know that I have been in Paris?”
“Silly cat, when you send messages to your circle of friends, you can choose to indicate your current location.” Zhao Yao shook his head and said, “Take a picture holding a cup of Starbucks coffee and describe yourself enjoying a rare afternoon break. After that, casually indicate your location. Isn’t that more sophisticated than taking Eiffel Tower pictures?”
Elizabeth nodded and said, “Seems reasonable.”
Zhao Yao said, “Of course, don’t publish tour photographs. It is too conventional. Immerse yourself in the local culture.”
Elizabeth asked again, “How do I immerse myself?”
Half an hour later, Zhao Yao brought the bearded man to an internet café, which was difficult to find in Paris. Zhao Yao pointed to the people playing games inside and said, “Look, this is the local Parisian culture. Immerse yourself. It isn’t easy finding one of these cafés.”
Elizabeth was fuming. “Why would anyone travel to Paris just to access the internet?”
Zhao Yao caressed Elizabeth’s head and said, “Don’t be angry Elizabeth. As a cat, you have to be merry. If you don’t like internet cafés, I will get a French baguette for you. It is a Parisian delicacy. Since we have come from far, it will be a pity if you miss it.”
Five minutes later, in the Extradimensional Belly, Elizabeth stared at the French baguette in anger. She was extremely infuriated when she noticed Youyou bakery on the packaging—Jianghai Baoshan District XX road XX building number.
Elizabeth hissed in anger and glared at Zhao Yao. “Zhao Yao, are you trying to fool me with this bread?”
Zhao Yao was playing computer games as he said, “Well, Elizabeth, how could you say that I am fooling you? A true Parisian baguette is as hard as a brick. You wouldn’t be able to chew it.
I have done my research. The owner of the Youyou bakery opposite our cat café is highly skilled. Their ingredients are of high quality and the price is value for money. He clinched the seventh spot in the National Bread Competition. After continuous improvement by the owner, his French baguette is more suited to our taste, definitely more tasty than Parisian baguette.”
Elizabeth was fuming as she chewed on the French baguette. “I made cakes for him and he only bought a baguette for me? He is tricking me.” She got angrier as she munched on the bread. She looked at Zhao Yao, who was focusing on his computer game and wanted to wreck the computer. She cursed him in her heart, “Computer games, computer games, addicted to computer games for the whole day. Doesn’t he notice that there is a beautiful ragdoll cat here?”
The bearded man was also brought into the Extradimensional Belly. Zhao Yao did not feel at ease leaving him alone in Paris, so he shielded his five senses and placed him inside.
At this instant, a black figure pounced on Elizabeth from the back. Fortunately, she dodged it.
Elizabeth turned around to look and saw Mango sprawled at her previous position, shaking his buttocks.
His body was almost the same size as Matcha, however, his face was twice bigger than Matcha’s. Elizabeth sighed. “Well, Mango, you are no longer the cute little blue kitten.”
Mango meowed and pounced on Elizabeth again. Elizabeth rolled her eyes and emitted crimson rays, controlling Mango. “Mango, go and find Brother Roly Poly so that he can teach you to behave.”
Looking at Mango beat Roly Poly to the ground, Elizabeth sighed. “This silly kid, how do you expect to attract female cats like this?”
Roly Poly said, “Wow, why is this silly kid so strong?” He wanted to become invisible to escape but his efforts were in vain. He could not outrun Mango and was pinned down by him. He could only moan in pain.
Elizabeth felt very light as if she was being lifted up.
Zhao Xue buried her head into her long fur and said happily, “You’re so adorable Elizabeth, why are you so cute?”
Turning her head, she saw Zhao Xue carrying her. She rolled her eyes and said, “Miss, I have already worked today. I do not attend to customers after working hours. If you wish to cuddle cats, come early to the cat café tomorrow.”
Zhao Xue was disappointed. Elizabeth’s eyes emitted crimson rays and she controlled Zhao Xue to put her down.
Elizabeth shook her head at Zhao Xue’s dejected gaze. “Women like you love to cuddle so much. Let me give you 20 dollars for you to buy a dog and you can cuddle all you want.”
Time passed quickly. Zhao Yao suddenly smashed his computer mouse and yelled angrily, “D*mn, someone cheated. Why do I always encounter cheaters?”
Rice Cake lifted her head and said, “Zhao Yao, that person just now didn’t cheat…”
Her mouth was immediately covered by Cheese. “Do not speak any further Rice Cake. It is Zhao Yao’s excuse.”
“Who says I am finding excuses?” Zhao Yao shouted furiously, “He obviously cheated, I shot 30 bullets and he didn’t die.”
Cheese nodded and said, “Yes, it was blatant cheating.” He spoke privately to Rice Cake, “Rice Cake, do not argue with Zhao Yao or you will be mistreated by him.” He promised himself to protect his sister from the tyranny of that man.
Zhao Yao suddenly looked worried. “Already 10pm? Darn it, I am late by one hour.” He stood up and shouted, “Let’s go! Stop playing. We are starting work. All you know is play.”
