Song Cha looked at You Ming An and shook her head in refusal, saying, “Sister An, I can earn spirit stones myself and take care of myself.”
You Ming An smiled, her previously cold expression softening with a hint of warmth. “Cha Cha, I know you can take care of yourself. But I want to buy you something, just to fulfill my wish.”
Hearing You Ming An’s words, Song Cha looked at her in surprise. However, perhaps after considering something, Song Cha ultimately did not firmly refuse. Instead, she slowly nodded.
“Sister An, for you, I’m willing to spend your spirit stones. But… it’s better if it’s a little less. If it’s too much, I would feel guilty.”
“I’ll listen to Cha Cha.” You Ming An said this without much thought; in fact, she only said it to temporarily appease Song Cha.
She actually wanted to bear all of Song Cha’s expenses. Song Cha had met so many people, and many were willing to give her money. In such a situation, how could You Ming An feel good about it?
Clearly, among those people, she was the one closest to Song Cha. They had known each other in a past life, where she was Song Cha’s master. In this life, they were so fated that they signed a life contract without knowing each other.
So, in a way, she was the one most suited to be with Song Cha.
Yet others had jumped in first, using their spirit stones to curry favor with Song Cha.
But their flattery was ineffective; she was the one with the deepest connection to Song Cha.
Thinking this in her heart, You Ming An finally maintained her balance: “Cha Cha, let me take you shopping.”
Having just returned from earning spirit stones, You Ming An was still in a show-off mood, and the only person she wanted to impress was Song Cha.
She wished she could buy the best things in the world right now, placing them before Song Cha to show her sincerity.
At that moment, Song Cha felt a bit moved by You Ming An’s words.
Not long ago, Shao Yumiao had been taking her shopping.
But recently, due to her prolonged seclusion, Song Cha hadn’t bought anything for a long time. In this situation, she naturally wanted to purchase some items.
However, even though she really wanted to go shopping, Song Cha held herself back.
The current situation was that You Ming An had just returned and had only mentioned wanting to buy her something.
If she agreed right away and went along, even if You Ming An didn’t think much of it now, it could become an issue if she felt it was inappropriate later on.
Moreover, You Ming An had just come back and must be very tired.
In this case, it would be more appropriate to welcome You Ming An back properly.
Thinking this, Song Cha smiled slightly and declined You Ming An’s suggestion, saying, “Sister An, you just got back and should be tired. Let’s talk about this another day.”
You Ming An: “……”
Hearing Song Cha’s words, You Ming An felt a bit dissatisfied. She was eager to buy something for Song Cha.
But You Ming An didn’t want to upset Song Cha, so she refrained from saying anything else.
However, her initial displeasure quickly vanished when she heard Song Cha’s next words.
Song Cha smiled at You Ming An, saying, “Sister An, you just returned and must be quite tired. Let me prepare a table of spirit food for you.”
You Ming An: “!!!”
After hearing Song Cha’s words, You Ming An instantly became excited.
Song Cha said she would prepare a feast for her, and upon hearing this, You Ming An immediately recalled her past life.
In her previous life, You Ming An was just a little kitten, and Song Cha was her owner. Back then, Song Cha would always find cat food and canned food in various gift boxes to feed her.
However, despite that, there were times when Song Cha would cook special meals for her.
Song Cha could make cat food.
Although… those meals weren’t particularly delicious, they held a unique flavor for You Ming An.
Every time Song Cha prepared a meal for her, she felt immense joy, believing that the food contained Song Cha’s love for her.
And that love was incomparable to the tasty canned food.
Now, Song Cha was saying she wanted to cook for her.
From what Song Cha implied, she intended to prepare a whole spread for her.
In the past, even as Song Cha’s beloved little kitten, she would only make a single bowl of food for her.
But now, Song Cha wanted to prepare an entire feast.
If a bowl of cat food represented deep love, then a whole table of food must signify an even greater affection.
“Thank you, Cha Cha!” You Ming An’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she looked at Song Cha, wishing that the food would appear before her instantly; she had to eat it all.
You Ming An’s anticipation was so evident that Song Cha could see it clearly.
Yet, it was this clarity that left Song Cha feeling puzzled.
You Ming An was so strange; why was she so eager for her cooking?
But no matter how much Song Cha thought about it, she couldn’t figure out the reason behind it.
So, in this situation, she decided to stop pondering and instead focus on preparing a meal for You Ming An.
Regardless of why You Ming An was looking forward to her dishes, it was still a wonderful thing for her.
“Sister An, wait for me, I’ll start cooking right away,” Song Cha said, opening the door to the cave and gesturing for You Ming An to come inside.
You Ming An didn’t refuse Song Cha and followed her into the cave.
Once inside, Song Cha headed to the kitchen and began to seriously prepare the dishes.
Before her retreat, Song Cha had visited the market one last time.
This time, with some money to spare, she didn’t hold back and bought over a thousand spirit stones worth of spirit beast meat.
Now, this spirit beast meat was about to come into play.
Song Cha took out the meat, ready to chop it and start cooking.
But before she could even pick up the knife, another person entered the kitchen.
It was clear that this person was You Ming An.
“Sister An.” Song Cha looked at You Ming An and called out.
You Ming An nodded slightly, “Cha Cha, let me help you with the cooking.”
Song Cha: “……”
Hearing this, Song Cha turned to You Ming An and shook her head in refusal, “Sister An, I want to personally make you a feast.”
You Ming An: “……”
After hearing Song Cha’s words, You Ming An’s heart softened instantly.
She looked at Song Cha, feeling completely moved.
It was no wonder You Ming An had such thoughts. Song Cha was truly too important to her.
In her past life, when You Ming An was still a cat, she left her mother at a very young age and was raised in a pet shop.
That pet shop was not a very good one.
Although You Ming An was not exactly abused in the pet shop, she was kept in a tiny cage every day, eating only the cheapest cat food.
Just when You Ming An was living a miserable life, Song Cha appeared.
Song Cha bought You Ming An.
Suddenly, in You Ming An’s already small world, there was only Song Cha.
She lived in Song Cha’s home, seeing only Song Cha every day, eating only the food that Song Cha provided, and only talking to Song Cha.
As a little kitten, she was imprinted with Song Cha’s presence in such an environment.
At that time, Song Cha would occasionally take the little black cat, You Ming An, out, but they didn’t meet many people.
Moreover, You Ming An was not interested in those encounters at all.
The only person she cared about was Song Cha.
Growing up in such a situation, You Ming An’s world contained only Song Cha.
To her, everyone else was an insignificant outsider, excluded from her world.
Upon hearing Song Cha’s words, You Ming An did not leave the kitchen; instead, she stood at one side, seriously watching Song Cha cook.
As she watched, she felt incredibly happy.
Heaven still favored her.
After arriving in this world, she gained a human form, which meant she had the possibility of being with Song Cha.
And in this situation, she also met Song Cha who had crossed over.
Now, Song Cha still cared so much for her, wanting to cook for her with her own hands.
“Cha Cha, you are so good to me,” You Ming An’s voice was no longer cold; it had become soft.
Song Cha: “……”
“You are my Sister An, if I don’t treat you well, who else can I treat well?” Song Cha looked at You Ming An gently, sweet words flowing easily from her lips.
You Ming An: “……”
Seeing Song Cha’s expression, You Ming An felt even happier.
Amidst You Ming An’s joyful mood, Song Cha quickly prepared the meal.
She carried one plate after another and set them on the table.
“Sister An, it’s time to eat.” Song Cha looked at the table filled with meat dishes, her smile becoming even more sincere, “Sister An, you are from the demon clan, so I specially made you meat.”
At this point, Song Cha paused, “I like to eat vegetables, but for Sister An, having meat just this once is no big deal.”
You Ming An: “……”
Hearing Song Cha’s words, You Ming An couldn’t help but widen her eyes.
She never expected Song Cha would say something like that; Song Cha actually claimed she liked vegetables and that having meat just for her was no issue.
You Ming An strongly disagreed with that statement.
Unlike others who easily believed Song Cha’s claim of liking vegetables, You Ming An was very familiar with her. She was the cat raised by Song Cha and was well aware of some of her habits.
Given this familiarity, You Ming An had seen Song Cha eat meat more than once.
In fact, it would be more accurate to say that not only did Song Cha like meat, but she also enjoyed it quite a lot.
You Ming An had witnessed Song Cha indulge in meat, often eating more meat and less vegetables.
With all this knowledge, how could she possibly believe Song Cha’s words?
You Ming An felt that Song Cha was deceiving her.
However, this deception did not anger You Ming An; on the contrary… it made her somewhat happy.
Yes, You Ming An felt a bit happy.
Ever since she arrived here, her memory had become much stronger than in her previous life.
Things she couldn’t quite remember in her past life were gradually coming back to her.
In this context, You Ming An recalled that Song Cha had once told a guy she had marked as a backup that she didn’t like eating meat and only preferred vegetables.
And You Ming An had always been quite jealous of that.
But now that Song Cha had said the same to her, could it mean… that she was also one of Song Cha’s backups now?
Just thinking about this made You Ming An’s heart race a little faster.
