The moment she stepped into the cat cafe and exposed herself to the influence of Celestial Beats, she could feel every single cell in her body begin to relax as her thinking slowed down significantly; it felt like she was in a sauna.
No, it was many times more comfortable than a sauna.
Yan Xiao Qing asked, "How is it? Isn't it comfortable? This effect is produced by the vibration of the bones within the cat; it is massaging your body."
This was also the reason why Xiao Qing is a regular customer here. Xiao Qing always sat in front of the computer all day long and had been suffering from neck and shoulder discomfort for some time. But ever since she stepped into the cat cafe, all the discomfort disappeared into thin air and it felt like she was back to her healthy self.
An Xin gently closed her eyes and nodded as she immersed herself in relaxation.
Xiao Qing dragged her to sit down on a vacant seat nearby.
Coco Sun removed her head from the cat's furry belly and greeted, "Hey Xiao Qing! You're here!"
"Yeah, Coco. I brought my roomie along."
Standing beside Coco Sun, Leigh Zhao stared at the two of them.
Coco Sun and Leigh Zhao have been regular customers of the cat cafe; they come almost every day. In fact, all three of them were studying in the same school so they've got to know each other for some time by now.
Compared to Yan Xiao Qing who could only afford to visit the cafe twice or thrice in a week, Coco and Leigh Zhao were much more affluent. They bathed in Celestial Beats every day; one of them managed to resolve his sore neck while the other managed to sleep better and got rid of her dark circles.
As Xiao Qing and An Xin were making their way to the cafe, a slightly plump orange cat had been trailing behind them. When An Xin glanced over to look at it, the orange cat meowed as it placed both this snowy white paws beside each other and did a praying action.
An Xin noticed something unique about its ear and asked in curiosity, "What's wrong with its ear?"
Xiao Qing replied with a slight doubt in her voice."It looks like a Scottish Fold but they are rarely orange in color. I'm pretty sure its ears weren't folded the last time I saw him."
Zhao Yao noticed the two of them standing beside him and explained, "Matcha here is actually a mix between a Scottish Fold and a Lihua cat. He has yet to mature fully before but recently it's ear folded on its own."
"Oh is it?" Yan Qing exclaimed excitedly and lifted Matcha up with her hands. Matcha reacted by delivering a flurry of kicks towards Xiao Qing's chest which made her giggle uncontrollably.
Xiao Qing brought Matcha to An Xin and offered, "An Xin! Come on, hug it!"
An Xin hesitated for a while and replied, "I think I'll pass... I'll just have a look, the clothes I'm wearing today can trap fur easily."
"There's no harm in hugging it... Look at how adorable he is! Come hug it, I'll take a picture of you."
Under the influence of Celestial Beats, An Xin seemed to be more comfortable with cats as her perceived threat of cats gradually died down. As she stared into Matcha's huge beady eyes, she suddenly felt that cats were actually pretty cute.
Suddenly, the orange cat flipped around in Xiao Qing's arms. It exposed its white furry belly as it started to lick his paws and rubbed its paws across its face.
Matcha secretly thought to himself: 'Hehe, you're about to fall victim to my killer move. '
The action of a cat rubbing its face was a classic way of getting someone to fall in love with them. An Xin saw how defenseless and harmless the orange cat looked as he rubbed his face and couldn't stop looking at him.
As she stared at the cat, a ghostly voice spoke to her in a tempting manner. It was Yan Xiao Qing's voice.
"An Xin... Touch his belly, this cat won't bite."
An Xin hesitated for a moment but eventually gave in and gently stroked Matcha's furry belly. Somehow, she loved how it felt and continued to stroke its chin, paws, ears and every other place. She couldn't stop stroking Matcha.
At this moment, her mind was in a completely relaxed state. She became so lazy that she didn't want to do anything at all. Neither did she want to revise anymore nor did she want to leave the cafe. She just wanted to hug the cats while lying down and waste her entire day away.
Zhao Yao spoke softly."Ladies, please order something to eat or drink. You just need to order a drink each at the very least and you can stay here all you want."
She took a quick glance at the menu and raised an eyebrow. The drinks cost much more than she expected but when she felt how warm and fluffy Matcha was as he laid in her arms, she bit her lip and ordered a cup of mocha.
Yan Xiao Qing hesitated a little too as she saw the prices but painfully ordered a cup of latte eventually. She wasn't as rich as Coco Sun or Leigh Zhao who could easily afford such drinks; the cost of going to the cafe several times a week was already burning a hole in her pocket. However, although she was broke from visiting the cafe, she loved the ambiance of the cafe and spending time with the cats so much that she still ends up going to the cafe frequently.
Zhao Yao noticed how contented and blissful An Xin looked and smirked as he spoke into Matcha's mind."Nice work Matcha! We have a new customer!"
"Don't call me Matcha." Matcha replied with an arrogant tone."Call me George-Matcha~ No one can escape the charm and temptation of George-Matcha's snowy white paws and folded ears."
At a corner of the room, a little girl was stroking Roly Poly's back continuously back and forth. Roly Poly eavesdropped on the conversation between Matcha and Zhao Yao and mumbled to himself, "Pfft, so cunning..."
The little girl who was stroking Roly Poly was just 10 years old and her name was Xiao Yu as addressed by her mother. Her mother personally brought her here because she knows that Xiao Yu particularly loves big fat cats and Roly Poly is exactly the type of cat that she loves. Ever since then, Xiao Yu has been Roly Poly's regular customer.
Her mum is a full-time employed woman. The mother hugged Dust Ball in her arms and gently closed her eyes as she luxuriated herself in the soothing ambiance of the cafe. Ever since she visited the cat cafe, she felt much more youthful than before. She used to wake up in the middle of the night due to neurasthenia. But recently, it seemed like there is a gradual improvement in her condition as she never once woke up in the middle of the night ever since she visited the cafe. As a result, she looks much more lively and energetic than before. The only person who wasn't too happy about this is her husband. He complained that she hasn't been spending much time at home lately which led to unfinished household chores.
She gently stroked Dust Ball and thought to herself: 'Alright, let's just stay here for a little while more. I'll go back and wash clothes half an hour later. '
Dust Ball, on the other hand, was focused on chewing on the can of food which the woman held in her hands.
Dust Ball glanced at the woman and cunningly thought to herself, 'Woman, I'll let you hug me since you so kindly brought me a can of food. Once I'm finished eating, you're of no value anymore. '
The mother and daughter were similar to Coco Sun; they have been here for the past few days and got to know each other's faces. The mother was poshly dressed and it was clear that they belonged to a well-off family, explaining why they could afford to visit the cafe that often.
Besides, the cat food sold in the cafe, be it canned food, frozen food or snacks, were all healthy food for the cats. They were all premium cat food which naturally meant that they were expensive.
The can of food which the mother held in her hands cost about RMB30 but Zhao Yao sold it at a ridiculously high price of RMB100. Though the food was clearly overpriced, some customers who could afford it would still end up purchasing them for the cats.
Hence, besides the drinks, Zhao Yao was actually earning quite a big sum from the cat food which the customers purchased. This would give him a large sum of earnings by the end of the month, which meant that he would also receive huge amounts of experience points as well.
