Chapter 56: Laughing My Fangs Off
Hearing the kitten’s fierce meows, Xixi raised her little head to look at Jiang Yuan and said wistfully, “Older Sister, Jin Gang is fierce to me again! It must dislike me!”
“Let me talk to it.” Jiang Yuan squatted beside Xixi, lowered her head slightly, and looked towards the kitten under the bed.
In the dim light, the kitten’s eyes gleamed.
Jiang Yuan tentatively spoke, “Jin Gang, hello, I’m Jiang Yuan.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the kitten immediately meowed irritably, “No calling, no calling! You hateful two-legged beasts!”
The kitten’s reaction was a bit strong, and Jiang Yuan frowned slightly, finding it strange, “Jin Gang, why do you think two-legged beasts are hateful?”
Xixi blinked her eyes, her chubby little face full of confusion and curiosity.
What is a two-legged beast?
“Hateful! I told you not to call, and you’re still calling!” The kitten was very angry, “If you call again, believe it or not, I’ll bite you!”
The kitten slowly peeked out from under the bed, its cat eyes, previously hidden in the darkness, exposed to the light, looking fierce in a cute way.
It was a lovely Golden Shorthair.
Xixi, having been threatened by the kitten a few times, already had a psychological shadow and hid behind Jiang Yuan, scared.
No calling?
Jiang Yuan narrowed her eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and a faint understanding appeared in her eyes.
She probably guessed the point that made the kitten break down.
Her lips moved slightly, “Jin Gang?”
“Ahhh, don’t call!” The kitten meowed fiercely.
Jiang Yuan raised her eyebrows slightly and, as if playing a prank, called again, “Jin Gang.”
“Ahhh, I’m going to bite you!” The kitten’s fur bristled, its body tensed into a bow, its gaze ferocious, looking like it was ready to attack at any moment.
“Older Sister, should we go out first?” Xixi was scared of being bitten by the kitten and trembled.
She didn’t know why Jin Gang had become so fierce; it was a clingy kitten the first day it came home.
The next day, she woke up and the sky had fallen!
Wuwuwu, if I had known, I wouldn’t have slept that day!
Jiang Yuan looked at the kitten, a smile appearing in her eyes, “Don’t you like this name?”
“Who would like such an unpleasant name!” The kitten shouted, then suddenly froze. Its round cat eyes lost their anger, leaving only confusion. It realized something.
“Huh? You two-legged beast can understand me?”
“Yes, I can understand.” Jiang Yuan said softly, “Can you tell me why you suddenly stopped paying attention to Xixi and were fierce to her?”
“I originally liked human cubs very much!” The kitten explained, feeling wronged. “But it hurt my heart and gave me such an unpleasant name. If other cats knew I was named after a monkey, they would laugh their fangs off!”
“I am the most beautiful cat sister in our litter!” Calling me Jin Gang is too much!
Jiang Yuan knew it was impolite to do this, but she couldn’t help but laugh, “Pfft—”
Xixi’s chubby little face was full of confusion, “Older Sister, what are you laughing at?”
“Look, look!” The kitten was both wronged and angry, “Even you are laughing at me! Ahhh, I’m going to bite you!”
It bared its teeth and charged towards Jiang Yuan with its short, uncoordinated legs, but was picked up before it could bite.
Jiang Yuan held it in her hands and coaxed with a smile, “Good kitty, don’t be angry, I’m here to solve the problem for you.”
At close range, the kitten’s nose twitched, and it smelled her comforting scent. Its bristled fur immediately calmed down, and it was no longer fierce.
It asked pitifully, “How will you solve it?”
“You don’t like the name Jin Gang, so let’s change it.” It was such a simple matter.
Hearing this, Xixi asked curiously in her soft, milky voice, “Jin Gang doesn’t like this name? Why, it sounds nice!”
The kitten immediately retorted, “It doesn’t sound good. If it sounds good, you use it yourself!”
Jiang Yuan’s upturned lips couldn’t be suppressed, and she found it funny, “Xixi, if it were you, would you be willing to use the name Jin Gang?”
Xixi’s eyes widened, and she shook her little head like a rattle, “No, I’m a girl!”
Jiang Yuan patiently explained, “But the kitten is also a girl. The reason it was angry and ignored you is because you chose a boy’s name for it.”
“Ah… do kittens also need to differentiate names by gender?” Xixi was extremely surprised.
“Yes.” Jiang Yuan nodded, “Shall we change its name?”
Xixi obediently agreed, “Okay!”
Jiang Yuan then asked the kitten, “What kind of name would you like?”
“A sweet name!” It was a vain kitten.
Jiang Yuan pondered for a moment and suggested, “How about Candy? Candy is very sweet.”
“Candy…” The kitten’s eyes instantly lit up, and it nodded vigorously, “I like this name! I’ll be called Candy from now on!”
Jiang Yuan turned to the human cub and asked, “Xixi, the kitten will be called Candy from now on, okay?”
“Is it a name the kitty likes?”
“Yes.”
Xixi looked at the kitten and said softly, “Candy, I’m sorry, I didn’t know you didn’t like that name.”
Candy was a smart kitten and knew its little master didn’t intentionally bully it, so it meowed softly, “It’s okay.”
Xixi turned to look at Jiang Yuan, waiting for the translation.
Jiang Yuan said, “Candy says it’s okay.”
Xixi breathed a sigh of relief and carefully asked, “Candy, can I hug you now?”
Candy meowed.
Of course.
Jiang Yuan placed the kitten into Xixi’s arms.
Candy immediately rubbed its head against its little master’s face.
With Jiang Yuan’s help, the human cub and the kitten made peace.
Seeing Candy nestling obediently in her daughter’s arms, Rong Yue was shocked.
She had originally thought her husband was joking, but it turned out to be true.
Jiang Yuan had only been in the room for a few minutes and had already tamed the kitten.
“Yuan Yuan, what’s going on with Jin Gang?” Rong Yue couldn’t help but ask.
Candy, nestled in its little master’s arms, stiffened abruptly.
Xixi looked back at her mother, her little face turning serious, “Mom, Candy is called Candy now, not Jin Gang. Don’t say that in the future!”
Jiang Yuan briefly explained the reason for Candy’s tantrum.
Rong Yue looked astonished, “It was actually dissatisfied with its name…”
Jiang Yuan chuckled lightly, “Actually, most animals have their own thoughts.”
“No wonder they say many animals have spirits.” Rong Yue nodded, “It seems I need to pay more attention in the future.”
Ten minutes later, Jiang Yuan was preparing to leave, but Rong Yue warmly insisted she stay for dinner.
Xixi tugged at her hem, and Candy pawed at her pant leg, acting cute to stop her from leaving.
Jiang Yuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, and just as she was about to agree, her phone rang in her pocket.
The caller ID showed “Gu Yiwei,” and she paused, almost forgetting who that person was.
