Chapter 94 - 94: It’s Ugly, But It’s Gentle



Some adoption centers require a certain fee for cat adoption. This fee would be used to treat sick stray cats and provide food for animals that hadn’t found homes yet.

Some people disagreed with this and preferred to spend extra money buying a cat they liked from elsewhere.

Lin Gantang understood their policy. She paid the fee, signed the adoption agreement, and placed the calico cat into a cat carrier.

A few days earlier, someone had called in response to a job posting. Lin Gantang had scheduled her for an interview at the store tomorrow.

She first took the calico cat to a pet store for grooming and a check-up and then returned home.

Upon arriving home, she found her father standing before the cat carrier, silently contemplating.

“You went through all that trouble just to bring this thing back?” he exclaimed.

“Even the Little Leopard Flower we found before was better than this,” Mr. Lin declared, contemplating a decision. “If you like it, you can keep it at home. I’ll convince your brother to let you keep it. Otherwise, all your customers might be scared away by it.”

“It may not be the prettiest, but it’s gentle,” Lin Gantang defended the calico cat.

“Hiss…” Mr. Lin looked at it again and found it increasingly unattractive. “Is it because you’re short of money? I can transfer some funds to you. Go buy a Ragdoll cat or even a Siamese cat.”

“Don’t judge a cat by its appearance. You should consider its future capabilities!” Lin Gantang argued.

Mr. Lin gave up trying to persuade her and quickly opened a picture of Little Leopard Flower to soothe his eyes.

He used to think Little Leopard Flower was average-looking, but now with a comparison, it turned out that it was quite handsome. Truly Yanqing’s “son”, Little Leopard Flower was the most handsome!

The next day, Lin Gantang arrived at the bookstore on time.

The girl she was interviewing was named Qian Ruoxi. She had a ponytail, giving off a youthful vibe.

“Do you have any experience taking care of cats?” Lin Gantang asked as she invited her to sit down.

Qian Ruoxi appeared somewhat nervous. “I’ve had cats at home for several years, and I’ve also worked as a salesperson in other stores. I know how to tidy up and handle cash.”

Lin Gantang reviewed her resume and asked a few more questions. Qian Ruoxi seemed well-prepared and answered confidently.

“Do you have any concerns about the salary?” Lin Gantang inquired, closing her resume.

Qian Ruoxi shook her head. “None.”

“We emphasize a relaxed and casual atmosphere in our bookstore. You don’t need to be nervous. If you’re unfamiliar with something, you can learn it. I won’t be too strict or demanding with my employees, but I do expect them to have the necessary skills and not be lazy.”

“I understand.” Qian Ruoxi nodded. “If you hire me, I’ll do my best.”

“Great.” Lin Gantang placed the resume aside. “Since the store is newly opened, until we hire another person, you may have to handle some miscellaneous tasks. This includes taking care of the cats and managing the books. I’ll also be in the store during this period.”

“Okay, when should I start working, boss?” Qian Ruoxi asked.

“Tomorrow. The remaining books will be delivered tomorrow, and I might need your help organizing them.”

Qian Ruoxi assured her that she would remember.

Lin Gantang left the bookstore and went to another adoption center. However, this one had more dogs available for adoption, and the cats were mostly kept in cages. They seemed to have been strays for a long time, and some were a bit aggressive. When they saw strangers approaching, they either avoided them or puffed up defensively.

Lin Gantang had to give up on adopting from there.

Upon returning home, she saw her father standing proudly in front of the cat carrier, nodding from time to time.

“Miss, you’re back,” Butler Lu informed her.

Mr. Lin quickly turned around and enthusiastically introduced, “Gantang, take a look. Dad bought these for you. How do you like them?”

A Ragdoll cat and a Scottish Fold were sitting obediently inside the cat carrier.

“How can a big shop like ours have just one cat? You’ll have to wait forever to find a suitable one,” Mr. Lin boasted. “Look at these little ones in front of you. Such good looks! This is what it means to have an impressive appearance!”

Mr. Lin intended to restore Lin Gantang’s somewhat distorted sense of aesthetics.

Lin Gantang’s initial reaction upon seeing the two cats was that the calico cat would look even uglier in comparison..
