Increased Appetite

By the time Jiang You came out of the space, the temperature in the living room had already dropped.

Da Zhuang lay in the cat bed with a bow-shaped bandage on his head, gnawing on a strawberry butt.

She actually bandaged me herself. But I don't dare take it off. If I remove it myself, will this human get angry and stop hanging out with me?

But these scars on his body were proof of his strength as a purebred tabby cat!

It was his first time wearing a bandage, and it felt a little strange.

Should he take it off or not?

He cast a glance at the human in the distance.

Forget it. If he took off the bandage, not only would she beat him, she would probably stop giving him fruit too.

Da Zhuang struggled repeatedly between dignity and desire.

In the end, he successfully convinced himself.

It wasn't that he didn't resist because he lacked the strength.

It was because he was going easy on that human. After all, she was under his protection. Why should he quibble with her?

After preparing himself mentally, Da Zhuang lowered his head and continued gnawing on the strawberry.

When he ate, he always ate his favorite things first. Only after finishing those would he consider anything else.

The same went for strawberries. He ate the tips first, gnawing them clean before eating all the strawberry butts together, along with any strawberry leaves that hadn't been removed completely.

Hmm, should I let this newly acquired human underling follow me from now on?

Bah, bah, bah. She should be the one following me!

After finishing the strawberries, Da Zhuang began gnawing on a large Chinese cabbage Jiang You had given him.

He had to admit, this Chinese cabbage was crisp and sweet!

As long as it came from the space, he wouldn't even spare the cabbage core.

Thus, Jiang You saw a tabby cat hugging a cabbage core and gnawing on it with relish. Because Da Zhuang was covered in bandages and had trouble moving, his entire body was sprawled over the cabbage as he ate.

Jiang You lightly nudged his butt with her foot.

Da Zhuang turned around ferociously. When he realized it was her, he narrowed his eyes and meowed.

He looked a little as though he was acting coquettishly, but that fierce cat face had absolutely no cuteness to it.

It was like a muscular northern man covered in tattoos making little punching gestures at you. Anyone who didn't know better would think he was about to punch you to death.

Jiang You walked over to the sofa and sat down, then beckoned to Da Zhuang.

The big brother immediately stuffed the last bit of cabbage into his mouth and hobbled over.

"Meow?" Why are you calling me?

Jiang You took out a basket of fresh strawberries and some cherry tomatoes. "I picked these for you."

"Meow!!!"

For me?!!!

When he saw what she held, the tabby cat's entire tail stood straight up.

Oh my goodness!

All for me!!

He anxiously circled around Jiang You's feet.

Jiang You poured the fruit from the plate into his special bowl. "Eat up. There's plenty."

"Meow!!!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Da Zhuang immediately plunged his entire body into the basket.

Jiang You was also getting ready to eat dinner.

She took a serving of pork stewed with pickled vegetables, a serving of fried pork, and a serving of hot-and-sour cabbage from the space.

For the staple food, she had ten large, white steamed buns.

She also took two cups of iced drinks.

As her amount of exercise continued to increase, Jiang You's appetite grew rapidly as well.

The food she had brought out was enough to feed at least two grown men, but she polished it all off by herself.

In the end, she even ate half a fried chicken before she felt somewhat full.

After dinner, Jiang You gnawed on duck neck while drinking milk tea.

Her cheeks moved a few times before she spat out a piece of bone. Before the bone could hit the ground, Da Zhuang sprang up, caught it in his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

Jiang You took an untouched duck neck and gave it to him.

Da Zhuang turned his head away. I don't eat handouts!

Jiang You shrugged. "Suit yourself." Then she continued gnawing on her duck neck.

But just as she spat out another bone, a cat covered in bandages flew past her eyes and caught the piece of bone in its mouth again.

Da Zhuang bared his teeth, duck neck dangling from his mouth, and arrogantly flung himself onto the floor.
