The Nutrition is Too Good - Chap 16.1
Rong Mian glanced at his phone again.
He said to Kong Sandou, “He still hasn’t replied to me.”
“That’s not right,”
Kong Sandou replied, feeling a bit frustrated.
She leaned in to take a look. “My photography skills are clearly so good…”
Although Kong Sandou was still angry at Rong Mian for drinking behind her back, dogs have quick tempers that come and go quickly. When she heard that Rong Mian wanted to take a picture to send to Zhong Yi, she immediately happily handed over the role of photographer. She helped him with his pose and adjusted the lighting in the room, taking a long time to select the most satisfying shot.
Rong Mian felt a bit embarrassed, but encouraged by Kong Sandou, he finally sent the photo to Zhong Yi.
However, Zhong Yi never replied.
At first, Rong Mian thought that Zhong Yi was too busy with other arrangements and didn’t have time to respond.
But until around 11 o’clock at night, there was still no movement from the other side of the conversation.
Rong Mian finally realized that something was wrong.
Rong Mian felt a bit uneasy. He didn’t actually expect Zhong Yi to compliment his tail or anything like that. He just wanted to share with Zhong Yi what had happened to him, thinking that this was something friends could do.
He remembered the night when he and Zhong Yi had met in the restaurant restroom. He wanted to show Zhong Yi his tail, but he was angrily rejected.
However, Rong Mian also thought that since Zhong Yi knew he was a cat and they had become friends, it meant that he shouldn’t dislike cats.
‘Perhaps it’s just because he doesn’t like to see tails.’
Rong Mian thought that it could also be because his tail wasn’t good-looking enough, so Zhong Yi didn’t want to reply to him on WeChat.
Rong Mian used to not understand why Kong Sandou would be so anxious and unable to sleep because she couldn’t pass a game level. But now, for the first time, he felt anxious on a social media app because of Zhong Yi.
“Maybe my tail isn’t attractive enough,” Rong Mian said softly.
He looked a bit sad, and Kong Sandou became worried.
“That’s impossible!” Kong Sandou said angrily. “You were the runner-up in last year’s tail beauty contest at the store, and that was when Uncle Yun won first place.
Moreover, among the ten customers on X’s reviews, three of them specifically mention how cute you are…
Rong Mian held his phone, lowered his gaze, and remained silent.
Kong Sandou looked at him, then suddenly turned around and noisily moved the nest from the corner.
“Your favorite pumpkin nest.”
Kong Sandou said, “Now, take off your clothes and turn back into a little kitten to sleep. Stop thinking about it, Zhong Yi is a good person, he definitely won’t be the kind of person who ignores messages.”
However, Zhong Yi did see the message but intentionally chose not to reply.
He was completely shocked at that moment. No matter how much he calculated, he never expected this child to directly send him such bold and explicit photos.
Zhong Yi stared at that tail, feeling the rush of blood to his head, and a buzzing sound began ringing in his ears.
Zhong Yi even took the time to look at it several times, just to make sure he wasn’t misinterpreting anything.
His nephew’s little daughter, who is in her second year of junior high, loves to play cosplay. She would often wear bunny ears and colourful wigs as part of her hobby. This falls under her own interests and hobbies, which Zhong Yi understands and respects.
However, in this particular photo, Zhong Yi could clearly see that the child had even taken off her pants. If she wanted to wear a small tail or something, she could have just attached it outside her pants.
He couldn’t understand why there was a need to take off the pants and where exactly the tail was supposed to be inserted…
Zhong Yi really didn’t dare to think too much about it.
Was he accompanying a guest? That tail, was it also forced by his so-called regular guests…
Zhong Yi felt a bit suffocated in his chest.
He looked at Rong Mian’s side face in the photo. If the expression on this child’s face was shy or sad, Zhong Yi could still accept it.
But the boy’s complexion in the photo was calm, just like the first time he unzipped his pants in the restroom, his expression was innocent and serene, without any other emotions, as if… he really didn’t care.
This situation was actually the most terrifying, indicating that he might have already become accustomed to being numb, that such a naive and young boy thought commodifying his own body was a normal thing…
Zhong Yi took a deep breath and picked up his phone.
Traditional Chinese Medicine:
[Are you meeting with guests?]
Rong Mian froze for a moment.
Why would Zhong Yi know about his meetings with guests… Rong Mian lowered his head in confusion.
He thought for a long time, finally remembering that it might be because that day when they went to eat sushi together, Zhong Yi overheard the phone call he had with Uncle Yun.
But later on, I drank a bit more alcohol and forgot about this matter.
Rong Mian didn’t think there was any problem with it.
Although he didn’t like meeting with guests, he never thought that meeting them in a cat café was a bad thing, nor did he consider hiding it from Zhong Yi.
Rong Mian believed that since Zhong Yi knew he was a cat, he would understand his part-time job situation during his free time.
So Rong Mian chose to tell the truth.
Rong Mian: [Yeah]
Rong Mian: [I met with a few regular guests.]
There was silence on the other end again. Rong Mian held his phone and waited for a while, then opened the fashion nail salon app.
