Chapter 239 A Fantastic Night: Encountering a Cat as Shameless as You
In the quiet and peaceful morning in Yuecheng, China, a clean and tidy room in a building was deserted, with only faint sounds of conversation coming from the living room outside the door.

At a certain moment, a red door frame suddenly appeared near the inner wall. It opened from the outside, revealing a completely different scene in terms of layout and decoration. A young man stood in the center of the door frame, craning his neck to look around the room.

According to the time difference, it should be around 8 a.m. the next day in Yuecheng. My parents have finished breakfast and are getting ready to go to work.

Hearing his mother's nagging coming from outside the room, Li Xiaoen couldn't help but smile.

Tentatively, Li Xiaoen reached his hand into the doorway, into his own room in Yuecheng.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the moment the arm crossed the doorway and reached the other side of the ocean, it suddenly shrank, transforming into the arm of a tiny kitten.

"..."

It's true, using the Anywhere Door turns you into a cat.

Li Xiaoen shook his head helplessly and withdrew his hand. He carefully examined his arm and palm, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there was nothing wrong. He then resolutely stepped over the door frame.

The height of her field of vision suddenly dropped. Li Xiaoen first lifted her leg and took two steps forward, but lost her balance and subconsciously fell forward, her hands landing on the ground.

Once a cat becomes a real cat, its physical structure and habits will also change.

Li Xiaoen raised one hand to examine it carefully. Despite feeling helpless, he couldn't resist his curiosity and quickly went to the wardrobe. He used all his strength to push the wardrobe door open and saw his full appearance as a cat.

With a round head, short fur that is black and gray-white gradient, and emerald eyes, it looks plump and chubby when it squats on the ground, clearly a tabby cat from China.

It has a tail?

Li Xiaoen lowered his gaze and tried to control it with his mind, and surprisingly, he was able to swing it continuously without any hindrance.

After getting used to his cat-like body, the novelty wore off, and Li Xiaoen tentatively returned to his school dormitory through the opened "Anywhere Door." As soon as his entire body stepped outside the door frame, his field of vision increased, and he returned to his original form.

What's going on with these clothes?

Looking at the clothes he was still wearing, Li Xiaoen raised an eyebrow and shook his head with amusement.

Whether it's in the Doraemon anime or his childhood fantasies, why would he get caught up in such trivial questions?
After going back and forth several times, Li Xiaoen settled into his room at home before returning to his school dormitory and closing the "Anywhere Door".

If something had to be done, otherwise these two-day limited-time props would be a complete waste, Li Xiaoen sat in front of the computer and couldn't help but start thinking.

At one point, as if remembering something, Li Xiaoen quickly stood up and went to the open space in the room, his eyes showing excitement.

……

In England, on the outskirts of London, stands a vast manor house with a grand, classical, and imposing stone palace at its center.

It was already late at night, but the lights were still on in a luxuriously decorated room.

The bright, high-hanging full moon casts a soft, silvery light that shines through the open window and illuminates the face of the girl sitting by it.

The girl had long, flowing golden hair, a fair, oval face that was both gentle and beautiful, and a hint of melancholy lingered in her clear, emerald-green eyes.

At one point, in a dark corner of the spacious room, the tightly drawn curtains suddenly swayed for a moment before quickly disappearing, and a tabby cat peeked out from behind them.

Is this Victoria's room?
After scanning the room's luxurious yet elegant decor from all angles, Li Xiaoen thought to himself and activated his [Eye of Insight].

With the entire room laid out in his mind and confirming that no one would disturb him, he then moved his limbs toward the girl sitting by the window.

"aim……"

Approaching the girl from behind, Li Xiaoen opened his mouth, but could only utter such sounds.

Startled by the sudden sound, Victoria shuddered and quickly turned around. Seeing no one in front of her, she lowered her gaze and found a tabby cat sitting on the ground.

"Where did the cat come from?"

Victoria paused for a moment, then, seeing the cat sitting obediently on the floor, looking at her with its bright emerald eyes, her tension eased slightly. She turned to look around the room, frowning in confusion. "This doesn't seem to be an English breed..."

Keeping her distance from the cat, Victoria searched through various windows and doors, but unfortunately found no way for the cat to enter, and shook her head in frustration.

Why does this cat's gaze look so familiar?
Keeping her distance, Victoria searched for information online and confirmed that it was a Chinese tabby cat. Her thoughts were somewhat complicated. She would turn her head from time to time to carefully examine the cat, looking at the meaning in its emerald green eyes, which were the same as hers. She vaguely felt a sense of déjà vu for the young man she had been thinking about day and night.

Suddenly, an absurd thought popped into Victoria's mind. She snapped back to reality, shaking her head in a state of bewilderment, both amused and exasperated.

Have I been thinking too much these past few days, and subconsciously hoping that kind of thing will happen?
Feeling helpless, Victoria tried to approach, crouching down and raising her hand towards the cat's head, gently calling out to it.

"Hello, little cat..."

"Meow……"

With a soft cry, Li Xiaoen chuckled to himself and leaned his head closer.

"what……"

Upon touching the kitten's soft, delicate fur, Victoria's wariness quickly turned into surprise. "It's so cute and well-behaved!"

Victoria tried gently tugging at the kitten's back, and seeing its bright green eyes, just like her own, her affection for it grew even stronger. She picked up the tabby cat and placed it on her soft bed.

"Oh, yes."

As if realizing something, she reached out and lifted the kitten up, looking down at its body.

"Meow……"

Initially somewhat confused, Li Xiaoen suddenly realized what was happening when she noticed Victoria's downcast gaze. She exclaimed in surprise, bent her legs to shield herself, and began to struggle violently.

"Ha ha……"

It turned out to be a male cat. Seeing the kitten shyly covering itself, Victoria couldn't help but laugh out loud and reached out to soothe it on the head, "Okay, okay, I won't look at you anymore, alright?"

"Your fur is clean and you're in such good health, you obviously have an owner. Can you tell me where your owner is?"

Victoria tentatively asked again, but as soon as she spoke, she met the cat's unforgettable, teasing gaze, and she couldn't help but be momentarily distracted.

That look in your eyes clearly conveyed the message: You're so naive, trying to communicate with a cat.

"A cat, daring to make fun of people?"

Victoria raised her eyebrows and glared at her menacingly.

"Meow……"

With a soft hum, Li Xiaoen stood up and looked around. He paused for a moment at the basketball craft on the bedside table and the panda doll lying on the bed before finally finding the girl's phone. He approached it and patted it with his paw to indicate that it was her phone.

"You want to check your phone?"

Victoria's eyes widened, and she asked incredulously.

She had never seen such a clever cat before, one that even knew about cell phones.

With doubts in her heart, Victoria carefully examined the tabby cat's entire body, noticing that it kept its lower body tightly hidden at all times. She found it very strange no matter how she thought about it.

This shameful attempt to cover up her embarrassment, coupled with her understanding of the intelligence of a smartphone—if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have suspected it was some kind of AI-made robot cat, or a person in disguise. Unlocking the phone, Victoria let it fiddle with it, and to her astonishment, she saw that under its control, WhatsApp opened, and she accessed her chat with Sean Lee.

The screen was filled with messages; the young man had been sending her greetings for several days in a row, but she hadn't replied to a single one.

"who are you?"

Victoria's face darkened, her heart pounding. Her eyes suddenly sharpened as she stared intently at the little tabby cat in front of her. "Or rather, whose message are you trying to convey?"

Faced with the shouting and questioning, the usually intelligent tabby cat seemed oblivious, and instead slapped the phone screen with its paw, managing to type out a few incomprehensible letters before sending it.

"Hi……"

Seeing this, Victoria didn't bother to examine the tabby cat. She quickly grabbed the phone, deleted the message, and held it tightly with both hands until a while later, when the young man still hadn't replied, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, she couldn't help but purse her lips, her thoughts beginning to wander and ponder.

It should be around 7 PM at school, and I haven't seen any messages. What is Sean doing?

Could it be that she's with Sophie?

Thinking of this, she felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. As she pondered, the tabby cat jumped onto the bedside table again.

It was another gift from Li Xiaoen.

Victoria frowned slightly. Even though she didn't believe in the existence of magic that could turn people into cats, she couldn't help but start to waver.

A tabby cat from China, with eyes that look a lot like Li Xiaoen's, suddenly appeared in her room. It's exceptionally intelligent, knowing to open its phone and chat, and now it's jumped onto the bedside table and started messing with that basketball...

A series of unbelievable events connected, and the more unbelievable things occurred in her mind, the more likely they became.

"kitten……"

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Victoria softly called to the tabby cat, "You were sent by Sean, weren't you?"

The tabby cat didn't react at all; it just kept patting a button set up under the basketball with its two front paws.

"Let me do it……"

Feeling a pang of sympathy, Victoria quickly spoke up and reached out to press the switch.

As the basketball was returned to its original position, the patterns on its surface began to rotate and illuminate with a soft glow, while a pleasant melody filled the room.

Seeing this scene, Victoria's expression softened, and her red lips curled up slightly.

Immediately afterward, under her gaze, the tabby cat jumped off the bed, snuggled up to her lap, and closed its eyes.

"..."

You even know to put on music to sleep; you really know how to enjoy yourself...

The soft, furry touch on her thigh made Victoria's expression turn strange. She shook her head with a helpless smile.

This shameless attitude really resembles that of a young Chinese person in America, far across the ocean.

Feeling a pang of emotion, she picked up her phone again to take a look. Seeing that the young man still hadn't replied, a hint of reproach appeared on her beautiful face.

Taking a deep breath, Victoria stroked the unusually well-behaved tabby cat she had just met, and began to wonder where the cat should go.

Even if she were to keep her by her side, she certainly couldn't live in her room; she could put her in the living room of the suite outside the room.

As she pondered the feasibility of the matter, she suddenly heard a strange noise and looked down at it.

Before him, the cat seemed to hesitate for a moment, then raised its head and began to look around.

"Hold on."

Victoria stood up and walked towards the door, but returned a moment later with a plate of various small kibble cat food and a glass of drinking water.

"Come here, I got this from someone, it's your cat food."

Victoria placed the plate on the ground and waved with a smile.

The tabby cat jumped off the bed and tentatively approached, only sniffing the cat food on the food bowl before raising its two front paws to cover its head, shaking its head and hiding its eyes.

"Don't you like it?"

Victoria paused for a moment, "Then what do you like to eat? It's late at night, so it's not easy to find something you like to eat..."

Upon hearing this, she was met with a fawning and expectant look from the cat, which made her thoughts even more complicated—that look was so lifelike, just like Li Xiaoen's.

"Okay, I'll go and make you something simple to eat."

With a sigh, Victoria stood up, took the tabby cat, and walked out of the room to the makeshift kitchen outside the living room.

Victoria glanced at the various foods in the refrigerator, anticipating Li Xiaoen's preferences, and took out a bag of potato chunks and fish chunks, heating and frying them in a pan.

"Okay, do you like this?"

Victoria placed the food on the plate and tentatively pushed it towards the tabby cat. Seeing that the cat only glanced down at it before lowering its head to eat, she breathed a sigh of relief.

It really does look so much like it.

After a few days of calm, Victoria's mood finally stirred, and for the first time since returning, she felt excited and energetic.

After the kitten finished eating, it was already one o'clock in the morning. Victoria was still too excited to sleep, but considering her dark circles, she had no choice but to go back to bed.

Goodnight, little cat.

Victoria wrapped some spare cotton clothes together and let the tabby cat lie down under the bed. She smiled, greeted it, and closed her eyes with a smile.

The next day.

Upon waking from a sweet dream, Victoria's first action was to roll over and look under the bed. Seeing that the tabby cat was not in the blankets, she was taken aback and quickly got up to search the room.

Still unable to find it, she opened her phone, intending to call for help, but paused when her eyes fell on the new message.

Victoria, you finally replied to me.
What message did you retract? Did you like me or miss me?
I also want to tell you that I miss you too…
After staring blankly for a long time, Victoria's mind went blank. After a long silence, she finally smiled with relief.

└Nothing, I just wanted to tell you that I met a cat with a shamelessness just like yours┐

After typing a reply and sending it, Victoria held her phone in both hands and unconsciously moved to the window, looking out at the lush green meadow and taking a deep breath of the fresh early spring air.

"Thank you, little cat."

She spoke softly, a smile playing on her lips.
