Chapter 19

While the snow eagle was perched on the tree waiting for a reply, the little cat was leisurely running out and squatting in her usual spot beneath the tree, staring at him.

The snow eagle: “……”

He felt a bit lost.

The little cat was indeed wearing the smart bracelet on her neck, so had she seen the message or not?

The snow eagle felt uneasy under her gaze, his heart full of restlessness.

She hadn’t replied to his message, yet here she was, staring at him. So what did that mean?

He felt melancholic.

At this moment, the golden tiger came out of the villa, shot the snow eagle a hostile glance, and swiftly picked up the little cat in his mouth.

The little cat, who had been intensely gazing at the snow eagle just moments ago: “???”

“Meow?”

What was happening? She just wanted to have a “friendly chat” with the snow eagle, so why was the golden tiger stopping her?

To be honest, after spending a few days with him, the little cat felt that this tiger was a bit clingy.

It was a far cry from the cold, impatient image he first gave her.

But when she thought about it, the snow eagle had also originally given her the impression of being cold and fierce, but after spending time together these past few days, he had turned out to be gentle, approachable, and a very easygoing eagle!

The little cat, Qing Liu, thought to herself and suddenly realized she had never actually seen her litter box cleaner.

It had been several days already, and every day she ate and slept, slept and ate. Even her habit of strolling through the jungle had been paused ever since the last accident.

Qing Liu had observed that since returning from the jungle that day, the golden tiger, the snow eagle, and the brown bear still frequently went out hunting and brought the prey back to the villa, while the panda and the fire fox rarely left. Most of the time, the three fluffy ones just lay together in the sun, eating food, and sometimes the panda would take them upstairs to the media room to watch movies.

With today’s advanced technology, they were watching holographic films, which were especially thrilling.

Although life was very enjoyable, upon thinking about it now, something felt a little off.

It seemed like there was no one here acting as the litter box cleaner in this villa?

Qing Liu was being carried out the door by the golden tiger. It was around four or five in the afternoon, and she had no idea where the golden tiger was taking her.

The snow eagle, seeing that the little cat had been carried off by the golden tiger, opened his smart brain again and checked the message page—still showing “Unread.”

The little cat hadn’t read his message. If by bedtime tonight, there was still no reply, the snow eagle planned to think of another way, like sending roses to the little cat.

The live stream audience was getting anxious:

【Why doesn’t the little cat look at the smart brain? She hasn’t even opened it during the live stream these past few days.】

【Damn, the snow eagle finally took the initiative, and the little cat must see it!】

【The snow eagle is still too traditional. This way, he won’t win over the girl. He should learn from the brown bear, who already has roses prepared.】

—

The brown bear held a carefully prepared rose in his hand, ready to give it to the little cat before bedtime.

In the world of the fluffy romantic variety shows, there were two main ways to express affection: one was sending a heart-fluttering text message, and the other was leaving a rose at the other person’s door.

If the little cat wanted to go see the sunset with the brown bear, she would accept his rose.

The brown bear felt nervous and anxious, his heart racing fast as he held the rose.

Ever since the accident in the jungle, he hadn’t felt comfortable showing too much interest in front of the little cat.

He was afraid she might dislike him.

But later, he noticed that the little cat didn’t seem to dislike him at all. She still treated him the same as before, even showing concern for him—she made sure to check that he ate all his meals, making him feel valued.

Because of this, he gathered the courage to prepare the rose and wanted to ask the little cat out on a date.

This was his last chance for a date. The confession segment was the day after tomorrow, and he had to make sure to build up enough rapport with the little cat before then.

Stealthily, the brown bear entered the little cat’s bedroom and carefully placed the rose in her cat bed.

The ribbon on the rose had a cartoon bear logo, so she wouldn’t mistake it for anyone else’s gift.

After doing all this, the brown bear quietly left the room.

Just like the snow eagle, anxiously awaiting a reply from the little cat, the brown bear also sat on edge, waiting for her response.

However, they waited from the afternoon into the night, and then from night until early morning, but there was still no response.

The reason was simple: the little cat hadn’t come back at all.

Since the afternoon, after being carried off by the golden tiger, the little cat hadn’t returned to the villa, and of course, the golden tiger hadn’t come back either.

The viewers in the live stream, with their god-like perspective, were both criticizing the golden tiger for his slyness and feeling sorry for the two male guests.

【Although I’m supporting the golden tiger, I’m still shocked by his shamelessness.】

【When it comes to scheming, no one can compare to the golden tiger! He’s so devious!】

【Seeing the brown bear and the snow eagle waiting nervously, I really want to tell them that they shouldn’t wait for someone who’s not coming back. The little cat’s been taken away by the golden tiger!】

【Poor brown bear and the snow eagle! They’ve been waiting all afternoon for nothing, while the golden tiger stole the little cat first!】

—

No one had expected it, not even the calm and composed snow eagle, accustomed to the ups and downs of the business world, that the golden tiger would act so unpredictably.

Everyone had been thinking about how to impress the little cat, hoping she would make a choice on her own.

The golden tiger didn’t ask, didn’t send any heart-fluttering messages or roses—he simply, bluntly, carried the little cat away.

By the time the other furry guests realized, the golden tiger had already taken the little cat to the top of a high mountain to enjoy the beautiful starry sky.

Watching the stars from the peak of a mountain was truly a magnificent sight.

Qing Liu was extremely excited. When she was a healer in the game, the stars she saw were digitally synthesized, and they couldn’t compare to the real beauty of nature.

She gazed at the countless stars in the sky and the brightly colored nebulae, and felt that the scenery in the real world was so beautiful.

The golden tiger nestled on a large rock at the mountain top, while the little white cat lay on top of his head, looking up at the stars.

The two furry creatures stayed in that position for a long time, without moving under the endless sky.

Although the viewers in the live stream felt sorry for the brown bear and the snow eagle, seeing how romantic the golden tiger and the little cat were, with the broadcast showing such a beautiful scene, those who had originally planned to criticize the golden tiger immediately switched gears and started shipping them instead.

【But still! The golden tiger is just too good at this!】

【Help, they look so good together! Suddenly I don’t feel bad for the brown bear and the snow eagle anymore!】

【Scheming tiger, you totally deserve a wife!】

—

The golden tiger took the little cat to the mountain to watch the sunset, then the starry sky, and the next morning, they enjoyed a breathtaking sunrise over the sea of clouds. The scenery was so stunning that Qing Liu couldn’t bear to leave, completely not aware that the confession segment was waiting for her next.

The golden tiger went hunting, and after filling the little cat’s stomach, they slowly made their way back to the villa.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the villa was very tense.

Aside from the panda and the fox fire, who were still eating and drinking, both the brown bear and the snow eagle were in a very bad mood.

They had already received a message from the production team, asking them to choose a confession target and prepare for the upcoming confession segment.

But with the current situation, what were they supposed to prepare for?

The person they were supposed to confess to was nowhere to be found.

When Qing Liu returned to the villa, she didn’t notice anything unusual. She immediately pounced into the panda’s arms, rolling around on the panda’s belly under the sun.

The panda lowered her head and looked at her, then glanced at the brown bear, who was quietly sulking in the corner, and the snow eagle, who was coldly perched in the tree. The panda gently poked the little cat’s belly, hinting that she should go cheer up the two upset ones.

The little cat, however, didn’t understand her hint. After all, she had been so focused on the scenery last night that she hadn’t gotten much sleep. Now that she was back, she immediately fell asleep on the panda’s belly.

She fell asleep in an instant.

And she even started playing with her little gourd.

While waiting for the little cat to come over and act cute to cheer them up, the brown bear and the snow eagle were left feeling speechless.

The panda, feeling a bit awkward, held the little cat and, noticing the gaze from the brown bear and the snow eagle, quickly placed the little cat onto the golden tiger’s back.

It was like she was getting rid of a hot potato.

The golden tiger gave her a satisfied glance before leisurely heading upstairs.

The snow eagle: “…”

The brown bear: “…”

The golden tiger, with the little cat in tow, returned to the bedroom and noticed the rose in the cat bed. He paused for a moment, and just when the viewers thought he would throw away the brown bear’s rose, he didn’t do that.

He actually held back. After carefully placing the little cat in the cat bed, he lay down beside her to rest.

The rose from the brown bear was very eye-catching. Every time the golden tiger opened his eyes, he would see the red rose beside the little cat.

He endured and endured, but eventually, he couldn’t hold back anymore. He grabbed the rose in his mouth and tossed it off the bed.

Live Stream Room:

【I thought the golden tiger was finally being a gentleman, but it turns out he’s still so petty.】

【Looks like the brown bear might come in and start a fight soon.】

【Sis, do you remember? Since coming back from the jungle, the brown bear hasn’t even entered the little cat’s room!】

The brown bear might feel guilty inside. Although his admiration for the little cat hasn’t faded, he has become much more reserved compared to when he first arrived.

The next morning, the golden tiger began preparing for the confession ceremony.

Before arriving, he never imagined that he would actually find a partner here, so he hadn’t prepared anything for the confession.

His mother had even asked him whether he should prepare clothes and gifts, and he had sarcastically replied to her at the time.

Now, it was a clear slap in the face.

When Qing Liu woke up, feeling full of happiness, she did as usual and rushed straight to the dining room!

But something seemed different today.

She walked around the dining table twice before it dawned on her: huh? Where are the other five fluffy ones?

Why are they all gone?

Where’s the sister Panda?

Her favorite sister Panda was also missing. Wasn’t she always sitting in the yard sunbathing?

She ran out into the yard, but couldn’t find her either.

Qing Liu was full of question marks.

The viewers in the live stream were also full of question marks:

【I was just about to say, why isn’t the little cat preparing for the confession ceremony?】

【Yeah, exactly! Even if the clothes and gifts are ready, she still needs to do her makeup, right? How could she sleep in until 9 AM? Everyone else got up at 7 and left!】

【Uh, is there a possibility that the cat doesn’t have a confession target, so she doesn’t need to prepare?】

【But even if there’s no confession, isn’t there still the ‘face-to-face’ segment? You know, the part where the six guests sit together and eat!】

After the confession segment, regardless of whether any couple successfully holds hands, they all have to face each other using their real identities and reintroduce themselves. During this segment, those who might have chosen the wrong person to confess to could have another chance at a different choice!

This is a major highlight—what female guest wouldn’t dress up beautifully?

So why isn’t the little cat preparing at all?
