Chapter 113: Working Is Impossible, This Cat Won't Succumb to Cat Treats and Canned Food

“Li Li, we’re near the school.” Li Hao looked at the familiar street and said to Li Li, who was running ahead.

“Meow~（I know, I’m very familiar with this place. ）” Li Li stopped and said after hearing this.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

How could he not be familiar with this place? He was a famous “male” celebrity here.

“Li Li, I’m going to work. You can play around here slowly. If you can’t remember the way home, wait for me here in the evening, okay?” Li Hao smiled as he rubbed Li Li’s round head and started running again.

“Meow~（Foolish Litter Shovel Officer, you underestimate me. How could I not remember the way?” Li Li couldn’t help but shrug as he watched Li Hao’s disappearing figure.

He trotted towards the bakery. There were not many people on the road now. Begging for food on the roadside definitely wouldn’t work, so he might as well go to the store and ask for food.

“Fat Li Zi, you’re here?” The employee, who was soliciting customers at the entrance of the bakery, smiled and greeted Li Li when she saw him coming.

“Meow~（Yes, Sister Employee. I’m here to beg for alms. I wonder if there’s any breakfast?” Li Li replied and rubbed against her leg.

“You little rascal, are you hungry? Stop rubbing, stop rubbing.” The employee laughed and patted Li Li’s body that was leaning against her leg: “Sister will go get you some bread. If you keep rubbing like this, Sister won’t be able to move.”

This little fat cat was really heavy, she was rubbing against her so much that she was almost unsteady.

“Meow~（Oh, oh. ）” Hearing this, Li Li immediately stopped rubbing.

Seeing this, the employee rubbed Li Li’s big head and said, “You greedy cat, you stopped immediately when you heard it was inconvenient to get you food, didn’t you? In your eyes, is Sister not as important as food?”

“Meow~（Of course not, Sister, you’re as important as food. ）” Li Li said seriously, blinking his big eyes at the employee.

As if to say, look how sincere my eyes are? How could I be that kind of cat?

“Alright, alright, you little Pig Cat, stop looking at Sister like that, it’s creepy.” Seeing this, the employee got up and scolded with a smile: “Sister is going to get you some bread, you little Pig Cat, don’t run around, okay?”

“Meow~（Got it, got it. I definitely won’t leave before I eat. Sister, you can go get it with peace of mind.” Li Li immediately sat down after hearing this.

Seeing this, the employee felt relieved and went to get the leftover bread from yesterday.

After seeing her leave, Li Li began to look around. He wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but he felt that there were fewer people on the street recently.

He wondered what had happened?

“Fat Li Zi, come and eat a pineapple bun. Sister specially saved this for you.” Just as Li Li was thinking, he heard the employee’s voice behind him.

Then, a pineapple bun was handed to him.

Seeing this, Li Li immediately forgot everything else and opened his mouth to eat the pineapple bun.

No matter what happened here, it didn’t have much to do with him. After all, he was just a little kitty.

“Fat Li Zi, have you seen Da Ju Zi recently? Sister hasn’t seen him for a long time. If you see him, can you ask him to come over for dinner?” The employee asked as she watched Li Li happily eating the pineapple bun.

She hadn’t seen Da Ju Zi since he and Fat Li Zi had their fight.

She didn’t know if Da Ju Zi had gone somewhere else or if something had happened to him.

“Meow~（That orange cat hasn’t been here for a long time?）” Li Li paused. He didn’t expect that orange cat to keep his promise and not come here after losing the fight. But since Sister Employee asked him, he might as well use his network to pass on the message.

Anyway, he didn’t care much about that orange cat. Because that cat couldn’t affect his status as the overlord of this area at all.

“Fat Li Zi, you’re listening carefully, right? Then I’ll leave this matter to you.” The employee said happily seeing Li Li stop eating.

“Meow~（No problem, leave it to me. ）” Li Li nodded his big head and continued eating.

“What a cute and smart Fat Li Zi.” The employee praised seeing Li Li nod.

It was said that Fat Li Zi was very intelligent, and it was indeed true.

Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly found that her vision was shrouded in shadow. Looking up, she saw a familiar figure, and her heart panicked: “Bo…… Boss.”

She didn’t expect the boss to come to inspect so early in the morning. This was the end, being caught by the boss feeding the cat during working hours.

“Hmm, are you feeding the cat?” The middle-aged man nodded and asked, looking at Li Li who was eating bread.

“Yes, I’m using the leftover bread from yesterday.” The employee nodded quickly, emphasizing that it was leftover bread.

She didn’t want the boss to misunderstand that she was using freshly baked bread to feed the cat. She was already slacking off during work hours.

“Okay, I got it. You go to work first, I’ll feed this fat guy.” The middle-aged man said and reached out his hand.

The employee was stunned for a moment, then quickly handed the bread to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man squatted down skillfully, rubbed Li Li’s big head and said, “Fat guy, is the bread in my store delicious? Do you want to apply for the Lucky Cat position in my store? My initial offer is still valid, three cat treats and four cans of cat food a day.”

“Meow~（No, no, I’m a cat who likes freedom. Don’t think that you can bribe me with three cat treats and four cans of cat food, no way. ）” Li Li shook his head directly. As the saying goes, life is precious, but freedom is more expensive.

Don’t think that he would work for the price of three cat treats and four cans of cat food a day.

Even if the other party offered a hundred times the price, he might consider it.

“How is it? Are you scared?” The baker asked the employee with a smile.

Slacking off at work and being caught red-handed by the boss, how exciting is that?

“Indeed.” The employee nodded. She wasn’t just scared, she was almost scared to death.

“You haven’t been working here for long, so you don’t know our boss very well. Let me tell you, our boss has several cats and is a real Experienced Litter Shovel Officer.” The baker whispered as he looked at the middle-aged man who was feeding the cat: “The boss has always wanted to recruit Fat Li Zi to be our Lucky Cat, but he hasn’t succeeded in enticing him.”

“If you can lure Fat Li Zi into the store to be the Lucky Cat, the boss will definitely be very happy.”

“Ah? There’s such a thing?” The employee was stunned. No wonder the boss wanted to feed Fat Li Zi himself, so that was the reason.

“Of course, let me tell you, the boss’s other stores all have a Lucky Cat. According to the boss, having a cat in each store brings good luck.” The baker explained with a smile. Their boss had seven stores, and each one was doing well.

You could say the boss was superstitious, but it had to be said that it did work.

“Okay……”

The employee couldn’t help but laugh after hearing this.

Did the boss really think that having a cat in each store would bring good luck? In her opinion, it was just that he wanted to have a cat to pet in every store.

Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly saw the Big Fat Li Zi get up and leave.

“Little Pig Cat, are you really not considering being the Lucky Cat in my store?” The middle-aged man asked, holding the empty packaging bag.

This Little Pig Cat ran away after finishing his food, without even intending to stay and play with him. He was really a greedy cat who only cared about food.

“Meow~（I told you, I won’t stay and work. If you can increase the reward a hundredfold, I might consider it. ）” Li Li replied and left with small steps.

He still had to pass on the message for Sister Employee, how could he have time to chat with the boss?

“Sigh! Failed again.” The middle-aged man watched Li Li’s departing figure. After he left, he entered the bakery.

“Boss, did you fail to recruit Fat Li Zi again?” The baker said with a smile.

“Yes, this greedy ghost only eats bread and doesn’t want to work for me.” The middle-aged man nodded.

“Then why don’t we get another cat, Boss? There’s more than one cat in our area.” The baker suggested.

Didn’t the boss just want a Lucky Cat? That was easy. There were many stray cats in the area, they could just get another one.

“I know, but I just want to recruit this Fat Cat. But if you can bring other cats, it’s not impossible.” The boss said, changing the subject.

“Okay! Then Boss, you should prepare a cat room in the bakery. I’ll bring you a little guy tonight.” The baker said confidently. He happened to feed a Pig-nosed White Cat on his way home every night.

Since the boss said so, he would kidnap this cat tonight and bring it over tomorrow morning.

“Okay, let me know when you get it tonight. I’ll cover the food and all other expenses, and give him a salary of one thousand yuan per month.” The boss said generously after hearing this.

He directly finalized the matter, leaving the employee dumbfounded.
