"Are you getting in or not?!"
Watching the wizards chat beside his Pumpkin Carriage as if no cat existed, the carriage driver finally lost his temper. The whiskers at the corners of his mouth twitched. "Don't think one little dried fish will make me wait around for long!"
The Zoogs pulling the carriage thumped their chests hard, expressing their wholehearted agreement with the driver.
"My apologies." As a witch, Jiang Yu always knew how to ease the mood at the right moment. She gave the driver a slight bow and smiled apologetically.
The tabby driver's narrowed eyes suddenly flew open, revealing clear amber eyes. When the witch lowered her head slightly, the little white cat ears in her hair gently twitched—such a subtle difference was as clear to a cat as a firefly in the night.
"Oh, this is not your fault, milady."
With a flip, the tabby jumped down from the carriage. One paw tugged at the wide brim of his hat, while the other extended amicably toward the witch as though to help her aboard. His eyes were full of infatuation, and his voice returned to its previous syrupy tone. "For an elegant and noble guest such as yourself, I could wait in the snow all night."
A thick black tail blocked the tabby's path.
"Does Wusa City get snow too?" Zheng Qing looked at the Pumpkin Carriage driver with a smile that did not reach his eyes.
The tabby's gaze followed that black Cat tail to a dark red Wizard Robe, then up along the robe to the face of a faintly smiling male wizard.
His whiskers immediately drooped.
"Destination!" The tabby held out a paw toward Zheng Qing, his tone stiff. "Fare in advance!"
"Please take us to the Wusa City Museum, thank you." Xiao Xiao
