My Cat Has Superpower?!
Chapter 278 - 277 Strange Sounds

Chapter 278: Chapter 277 Strange Sounds

For a moment, Lu Zixun felt a sense of urgency.

"Why on earth would I agree to become a eunuch!"

But luckily, the next thing Lin Siyin said gradually put Lu Zixun at ease.

"No need, Da Ju is still young, let’s talk about it in a few years."

Lin Siyin shook her head, indicating her disagreement.

Fortunately, Lin Beisheng had only mentioned it in passing and didn’t insist on castrating Lu Zixun then and there.

Relieved, Lu Zixun looked out at the scenery passing by the car window.

He noticed the familiar bun shop, and the owner was still the same one from before.

The customers were as plentiful as ever, only the owner’s expression had softened considerably.

A small cat walked by the side, and the owner lifted the broom, about to shoo it away, but after a second thought,

the owner slowly lowered the broom he had raised high, took two buns from the side, and placed them in front of the cat.

While the cat was eating the buns, the owner even raised a hand to pet its head.

Seeing this contrast from the past, Lu Zixun’s mouth curled into a knowing smile.

Could it be that the lesson he taught the owner in the alley had left a shadow, changing the owner’s personality since then?

That was something Lu Zixun wouldn’t know.

In a spot hidden from the rearview mirror, he took out a black card worth around one million from the System Space and used Magnetic Field Control to send it into the bun shop.

Having completed the sequence, Lu Zixun’s tail wagged with a light-hearted air.

Although the owner had been quite unpleasant before, without him, Lu Zixun would not have triggered the system, nor would he have met Lin Siyin.

Now, he might have starved to death in some back alley.

In a way, the owner could be considered a benefactor to Lu Zixun.

Thinking back to the owner’s past attitude, Lu Zixun chuckled to himself internally.

A benefactor with such a lousy attitude was probably unique to him.

"We’re here."

As the car stopped, Lu Zixun found himself returning to this very familiar place once again.

It had been several months since he’d last been back.

He looked around the surrounding streets, a sense of unfamiliarity washing over him, feeling a poignant sense of "times have changed."

Taking down the luggage from the trunk, Lin Beisheng held one bag in his hand and looked at Lin Siyin, "Carry your cat and get going. Hurry up and cook dinner for Little Yin, I have to go back for the evening self-study session."

Taking a suitcase from Lin Beisheng’s hand, Lin Siyin set Lu Zixun on top of the suitcase and looked unsatisfiedly at Lin Beisheng, "Dad, you said you were very busy today. If I’d known, I would’ve come back myself."

"Just on the way to pick you up, no need to waste that money."

Lin Beisheng smiled and then feigned displeasure, "What’s the problem, can’t I pick you up?"

"Of course, there’s nothing wrong."

Murmuring under her breath, Lin Siyin pouted at Lin Beisheng, "I’m just afraid you’ll get tired. Later, you still have to attend the evening self-study session. Are you not coming back tonight again?"

"Hmm..."

Thinking it over, Lin Beisheng nodded, "Probably not coming back. After all, these students will be in their senior year soon. We can’t slack off for a moment."

"Ding!"

The elevator reached the fifth floor, and Lin Beisheng took out the keys to open the door to the apartment.

The decor inside hadn’t changed, giving Lu Zixun a feeling of familiarity.

Lin Beisheng placed the suitcase into Lin Siyin’s boudoir, and headed towards the kitchen, saying, "Little Yin, take a rest. Dinner will be ready soon."

During dinner, Lu Zixun stared at Lin Siyin with longing, smelling the aroma of the food, and forcefully ate a bite of cat food.

Though it was top-grade cat food produced from the System Space, it had a similar taste to Teddy Bear Biscuits and wasn’t bad.

But Lu Zixun usually treated it as a snack, and hadn’t had it as a main meal in a long time.

While Lin Beisheng was serving food, Lin Siyin looked down at Lu Zixun and gave him an apologetic look.

Instinctively expressed, "Da Ju, sorry for the inconvenience. I’ll give you some crayfish to eat later."

After dinner, while helping Lin Beisheng clear the kitchen of the leftover food, Lin Siyin handed him the teaching materials for his classes.

Checking the materials in the folder, Lin Beisheng spoke, "Take a break these couple of days, and come with me to Yu Ren High School next week to be a teaching assistant. You can earn some pocket money."

"Click."

Lin Beisheng closed the folder, stood up to straighten his clothes, and advised, "When you’re home alone at night, make sure to lock your door well. Don’t open it immediately when someone knocks; look carefully before opening. Also, if anything strange happens, call Dad right away. The most important thing is..."

Before he could finish, Lin Siyin interrupted him, pushing on Lin Beisheng’s back and saying,

"I know, Dad. I’m already twenty this year; I’m aware of these things. Hurry up, otherwise you’ll be late."

"You..."

Shaking his head in resignation, Lin Beisheng stood by the shoe cabinet, putting on his shoes, then reminded again, "I will send you the materials when I get to school. Look them over when you have nothing to do at home, otherwise you won’t even know what a teaching assistant does."

"I know, I know, naggy."

Unexpectedly, upon seeing how fussy Lin Beisheng had been, Lu Zixun couldn’t help but scratch his ear with his hind foot; it was almost callused.

Finally, having sent off Lin Beisheng, Lin Siyin took a long sigh of relief back at home.

She looked at Lu Zixun and complained, "It feels like Dad was really naggy this time around. Sigh, what a headache."

Hearing this, Lu Zixun nodded in agreement; the Lin Beisheng he met this time indeed didn’t quite match the Lin Beisheng who had chased him out of the house last time.

Yet the concern for Lin Siyin hadn’t changed.

"Alright, I need to tidy up a bit. Boys can’t watch."

After washing the dishes in the kitchen, Lin Siyin headed for the bedroom. Lu Zixun, who initially wanted to follow, was pushed out by Lin Siyin.

"Meow meow meow?"

Lu Zixun stared at Lin Siyin with a questioning look, puzzled.

He had seen everything before, and now she was keeping secrets from him; he couldn’t figure out what was happening.

"Humph."

With a slight smile and a snort, Lin Siyin closed the bedroom door.

And at the door, Lu Zixun could also hear the sound of the door being locked from the inside.

"Is that necessary?"

Muttering to himself, Lu Zixun turned, leapt onto the sofa, took out a tablet, and started binge-watching shows.

Ever since Su Nian recommended quite a few dramas last time, Lu Zixun too had joined the army of drama enthusiasts.

In the room, Lin Siyin wasn’t just tidying up; she was actually preparing a gift for Lu Zixun.

"Hehehe."

Just as Lu Zixun was intently watching a TV series, he suddenly heard a strange sound.

Furrowing his brow, he paused the video to listen carefully for a while but didn’t hear anything else.

Just when Lu Zixun thought he might have imagined it, Lin Siyin opened the bedroom door, looking frightened at Lu Zixun.

"Da Ju, did you hear any strange noises?"
