Erbai the cat and 012 the blood vine are different species. Their friendship is nothing more than friendship between foodies. Usually, they are the only two non-humans on the table, so they became friends... or rather, pet friends?
The two of them maintained communication and contact when living in different places thanks to the knowledge and guidance of Erbai, a high-IQ meow who has more experience in human life.
Alien animals and alien plants domesticated by humans are not as intelligent as humans, but they are also "low-intelligence non-human protected species." Their interaction with humans is much deeper than some relationships between humans. Some people may even fall in love with the exotic animals or plants they raise...
In order to do business with this unique group, the merchants have also worked hard. They have developed a wide range of touch-screen optical brains communication devices for exotic animals, exotic plants, or other exotic pets. The built-in application texts are very few, and the communication is mostly using patterns and voices. It is simple and easy to claw.
Alien animals can communicate with their owners through the optical brain, connect with other alien friends, watch pet cartoons, play pets' favorite mini-games, go to various pet learning classes, and even pet malls... as long as their accounts have enough credits!
Of course, the owner can use the communication device and their personal optical brain to bind with their pet's optical brain to monitor their pets' dynamics.
For example, as an alien plant, 012, has no sound. As an illiterate who just came out of the ravine, it can't read words either. It's difficult to use its optical brain to communicate with its friend, Erbai. But fortunately, the optical brain for pets has many vivid emoticons in the dialog box!
Ling Yaoyao secretly peeped into the screen of 012 and Erbai's chat interface several times, and she simply laughed!
The voice message sent by Erbai is a string of "meow meow meow" in different tones, and then emoji of all kinds of cat toys, dried fish or cat snacks it wants to eat, and the link to buy them... Erbai also strongly recommends a cartoon, "Meows Rule the Empire"!
The baby blood vine 012, who has just started to learn to use his pet light brain, is much more pitiful.
It could only send a bunch of emojis...
And the most frequently posted is an emoji of an interstellar plant with question marks on its face.
With its little friend, Erbai, 012's life suddenly became sophisticated. From only thinking about eating, drinking, sleeping, basking, taking a bath, and growing tall, it became an Internet-addicted baby...
However, its hobby of surfing the Internet still ranks behind the first few important things. 012 will definitely not delay its eating, beauty sleep, sunbathing, bathing, etc. time for surfing the Internet.
Every day at 8 o'clock in the evening, 012 will send Erbai an emoji of interstellar plant snoring with "Zzzz...", indicating that baby blood vine is going to sleep. It will hardly turn its communicator on anymore.
Unless Ling Yaoyao makes supper and wakes it up, then 012 will wake up to eat and play with her for a while.
This kind of regular and healthy work-then-rest routine like an elderly makes the night owl, Erbai, very crazy! It can only browse the Internet slowly by itself.
There is no other way. In order to prevent people's cute pet from being abducted or to stage a cross-racial internet love and hatred, pets optical brain usually will not allow a random pet to add friend. The owner's relatives and friends' pets can add friends and contact only with the owner's permission.
Old Cai is in a high position at his work. In order to prevent his cat, Erbai, from ruining his image, he did not allow Erbai to add friends casually before.
Earlier, Erbai had been peeping at another researcher's tall, strong and white handsome cat at the Food Therapy Research Base for a long time. Erbai rubbed Mr. Cai's leg for a long time and tore three sofas at home before Mr. Cai finally agreed to allow it to be friends with the handsome Meow from the researcher's house...
However, Erbai was hit hard by the fact that the handsome Meow disliked its black fur and white paws and rejected its friend application.
Erbai, whose heart is hurt, turns its grief and anger into appetite. Now it feels that only dried fish and all kinds of delicious seafood are its true love.
It was purely an accident that Erbai could get to know 012 by eating... In addition, 012 has a beautiful host who can make a lot of delicious food, so Erbai will often take the initiative to contact 012.
Facts have proved that holding 012's thighs is really useful. Now, it asked its owner to let Erbai freeloads an unexpectedly delicious meal!
012 thinks Erbai could only eat cat food at home. It is indeed a bit pitiful. As a friend, it should share some fish to eat together. Erbai taught it a lot of information, such as how to use the optical brain. 012 can also repay its favor this way.
As for why it was painful, it is because 012 feels that the portion of the dishes is too small. It was a bit unwilling to give it to Erbai for free.
The friendship between foodies has such a contradiction. They want to have a partner to share food, but they hate to have another party grab food.
Of course, Ling Yaoyao would not refuse 012's request to invite its friends to visit.
She explained the situation to Old Cai through the communication device.
Mr. Cai is in the Imperial Food Research Center building with a bunch of senior master food assistant therapists. They were discussing the specific rules of the second round of this year's New Students Cup Auxiliary Therapy Competition.
He was very envious of the good luck of his pet, Erbai, and said angrily, "Yes, I will remotely give instructions to my robot butler to send it over. When you finish eating, remember to ask the cat to bring me back a share."
Just after he finished speaking, Old Cai immediately changed his mind, "No, no. Can you make one more portion now? Send it to the location where I am at the fastest wind-like speed. It doesn't need to be too much. We already had lunch. Just make two or three dishes... Those old guys laugh at my prospective disciples. They thought you could only make delicious and effective food in the ideal environment of the Star Network, but the curative effect in reality must be average. They said that I advocated the wrong idea of promoting ancient Chinese delicacies, and it is ostentatious. I am so angry!"
Ling Yaoyao knew that her master wanted to use her skill to slap those master food assistants who were stubborn and conservative in their concepts!
Advocating the promotion of ancient Chinese cuisine is actually Ling Yaoyao's philosophy and goal, but her personal strength is definitely limited.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Cai would actually bring it up at the Imperial Food Research Center!
However, if she wants to be convincing, the few ancient Chinese delicacies she cooks on Star Network are definitely not enough. In real life, she also needs to produce some concrete evidence.
Old Cai did all of this for her, so Ling Yaoyao naturally doesn't mind cooking a few more dishes. She said concisely, "Okay, you wait."
The food storage freezer in Ling Yaoyao's dormitory also stored a lot of fresh fish. This was originally the food she used to practice making "a full fish feast."
Ling Yaoyao quickly made Fish Head with Chopped Pepper, Fish with Pickled Vegetables, Steamed Sea Bass, and Fried Small Yellow Croaker, all with spare portions.
She also made another Squirrel Mandarin Fish and Fish Bite Lamb, which made it up to six dishes. She put them in the insulated food box and sent them to Old Cai. It takes about half an hour to reach the Imperial Food Research Center building where Old Cai is located.
Erbai was also sent over by the housekeeper robot from Mr. Cai's home. Erbai and its little friend 012 gathered around the table and slobbered at a table of delicious fish.
Alien beasts of the interstellar age have good physiques and can eat human food. As long as they consume pets' digestive potions every month, they can get rid of any hard-to-consume things in their body.
Ling Yaoyao also has two vegetarian dishes to make it into eight dishes. Each portion is not too large. It is enough for one person and two pets.
Among them, Ling Yaoyao made a lot of Fried Small Yellow Croaker. She prepared it so Erbai could bring some back as a snack.
The two little friends ate the perfect fish banquet, and they were a little bit too full. Erbai was lying on the sofa with its stomach bulging, watching the holographic projection of "Meow Rule the Empire." It felt extremely happy.
The cat reluctantly refused to leave. It happily decided that it would wait here for dinner... It can only eat cat food if it goes back, who would like it! As for the food made by Mr. Cai... it tastes not as good as cat food!
To be honest, Erbai wanted to betray its master a bit and changed a s**t shoveling officer!
The relationship between the alien beast and the owner is not static. When encountering a host who is not good to their alien pet, the alien beast has abilities. Even if it can't beat the host, it will be no problem to defect and escape. They can choose to go back to the forest to live themselves or go to the alien animal rights protection center to find another suitable owner.
But when Erbai thinks about it, the old man Cai is unaccompanied and very pitiful. If it goes away, how pitiful he would be. Erbai decided to forget it and bear with its current owner. It is not a big deal to be more like the silly white sweet 012. See how much it could freeload a delicious meal from 012's owner, the old man's apprentice.
As a scheming meow, Erbai's crystal clear lake blue eyes turned as he was thinking.
012 is holding its small flower pot, pattering to wash its vines, and then go to the window to bask under the sun.
It thinks that "Meow Rule the Empire" is too naive. It can only deceive Erbai, this silly white sweet!
[T/N: "Silly White Sweet" is an internet buzzword, meaning a person who is too naive. They are cute and pure, but their silliness often cause problems for people around them.]
012 thought, how tired it is to rule the empire. Just finds a good master, eats and sleeps well every day, and waits for feeding, don't you know how happy it is!
Ling Yaoyao looked at the two little cute creatures living in harmony and felt that her heart was softened. She washed away the smell of food on her body, held Erbai for a good hug and fluffed its hair, and kissed the jealous 012's little vines.
After playing with them for a long time, Ling Yaoyao entered the study and went to the Star Network.
Erbai usually takes the high and cold image and doesn't like to be close to people. But for the sake of the delicious meal just now, it was too embarrassed to refuse Ling Yaoyao's claws... As a result, several of its hairs were scattered.
After Ling Yaoyao left, Erbai complained a little bit hopelessly, "Your master is really terrible! My flesh is tragically ravaged and molested! I am a dignified fourth-level snow-stepped cat with the ability to control ice and snow! What beautiful fish to eat... Sure enough, there is no free lunch in the world, meow..."
012 was very angry. It slammed its tentacles on Erbai's body and patted its paw. "The master is mine. You bad cat, you robbed my master's arms. How dare you dislike it!"
Erbai suffered a little bit of pain and wailed, "What? How dare you hit me. This lord cat is angry. Do you really treat me as a pet who only knows to eat fish!"
When it saw that a cloud of frost had condensed on Erbai's paws, the baby blood vine 012 was not afraid at all. It is very sensibly warned, "My level higher than you, and I am about to be promoted to level 5. You will not be able to beat me. Besides, if you beat me, no matter if you win the fight or not, don't even think about coming to my master's house to eat fish anymore."
Erbai thought for three seconds, then retracted its claws. It admitted, "...Big brother, please let me go!"
Erbai is a cat that can bend and stretch for food!
Ling Yaoyao didn't know any of these at all. After she entered the study, the two little cute pets outside actually had so many scenes!
After she went to Star Network, Lin Yaoyao posted the instructional videos of Squirrel Mandarin Fish, Fish Bite Lamb, Winter Melon with Dried Shrimp Skin, and Vinegar Cabbage on Weibo, and then made some portions for the "Ancient Chinese Gourmet House" and updated it simultaneously.
Because the portion is so small, every dish can only be divided into ten to twenty portions at most, which simply cannot meet the needs of more and more customers.
Ling Yaoyao has a lot of things in her hand and is unlikely to spend a lot of time on it. Except for a separate portion for Xiao Qi, her long-term guinea pig, the rest of the portion was auctioned for the highest bidder. The dishes are new, and within the next ten minutes, people are free to bid. The highest bidder will win the food.
However, the highest price cannot exceed ten times the set reserve price. If the number of people exceeds the specified quota, a winner will be randomly selected from the highest bid.
The reason why ten minutes is set is to make it easier for her fans who have turned on notifications for her new product. It would reserve enough time for them to go to the Star Network.
Ling Yaoyao's move was adopted by many well-known senior and master food therapists. It stands to reason that Ling Yaoyao did it as a newcomer seemed a bit over-confident. However, the customers who favored her liked her food more than many more prestigious senior and master food assistant therapists.
Especially after it was revealed that "Eleven" was probably the contestant with the top five submission in the food therapy group of the New Students Cup Auxiliary Therapy Contest. The new dishes in the "Ancient Chinese Gourmet House" were hard to buy. Many people were obviously willing to offer a price ten times higher than the highest price, begging the lucky ones to transfer the food to them.
After Ling Yaoyao put the last vinegar cabbage on the shelf, she glanced at the purchase list of the first two fishes.
The first dish, Squirrel Mandarin Fish, the first buyer is "Zhen" and the second buyer is "Famous World"...
The second dish, Fish Bite Lamb, the first buyer is "Famous World" and the second buyer is "Zhen"...
Ling Yaoyao was stunned. 'F**k, what's the situation?'
Before mentioning the people represented by these two names, more importantly...
She blacklisted "Zhen" for purchase! Who knows how he can buy her food every time, which means that the two brothers must have found a hacker to hack the Star Network to forcibly buy the food every time...
"Zhen" is Xiao Zhen. Why he did this, Ling Yaoyao could barely understand. Probably he could not pursue her, so he wanted to eat the supplementary food she made for comfort?
Look at Xiao Zhen's review score... Five-star review!
Comment: "Eleven, I'm sorry. It turns out that I ran into you on the Star Network so early. When you first made the Fried Cucumber with Perilla, it was a pity that I didn't know how to cherish it. I won't disturb your life. I just hope you can allow me to use this method to watch you and witness your growth silently."
Ling Yaoyao was completely indifferent. Suppose Xiao Zhen didn't want her attention or attract sympathy. In that case, he could register a new username to snap up the purchase without revealing his identity.
And this "Famous World," is it just a coincidence that Xiao Ming's account win the bid?
She took a look at the review of "Famous World"... also a Five-Star review!
Comment: "The dishes are delicious, and the auxiliary treatment effect is very good. You are very different from what I thought before. If you are interested in mechas, you are welcome to sit in my passenger seat."
Ling Yaoyao: '............This is absolutely not a coincidence!'
It's impossible for Xiao Ming to know that she already knew that "Famous World" was his, but Xiao Ming definitely knew that "Eleven" was Ling Yaoyao... Shouldn't Xiao Ming avoid her?
Could it be that she has attracted Xiao Ming's attention instead because she did not actively pester him and harass him?
'Damn it!'
Not long ago, she was planning how to disturb the marriage between the heroine, Su Qinghe, and the hero, Xiao Ming. It would be best if she could disturb Xiao Ming's original inheritance of the throne...
