The middle-aged man shook his head as he listened to Sun Meng’s words, “We do not have enough people to take him down.”

“Not enough?” Sun Meng stared at him with her brows raised, “Didn’t you say that his defense in the café is weaker than before?”

“This is a comparative term, not an absolute term.” The middle-aged man explained slowly, “Look at that corner of the café. Then, look at the opposite side. Have you noticed the guy staring at his phone and the other guy staring aimlessly around the café? Also, observe the person who has been waiting at the traffic light for the past 10 minutes ...”

Sun Meng was stunned by all these people that she had failed to notice. She finally realized just how extensive his defense was. She had clearly underestimated his power.

“This is why I said that his defense is weaker only in a comparative term. Even if the two of us manage to infiltrate the café undetected and manage to annihilate everyone inside it, we still have to deal with his subordinates luring outside the café. Within 5 minutes, the police will arrive. In 10 minutes, we will be the most wanted person in town. If need be, the army might even be activated.

Furthermore, my ability to possess someone else’s body requires a particular set of conditions to succeed. It will be meaningless even if we manage to barge into the café and get hold of this old man by creating a huge commotion.

Also, at least half of his subordinates protecting him are apostles. Given our strength, we would still require at least two to three minutes to eliminate them.”

Sun Meng scratched her chin as she processed all the information flooding into her head. Also, she had to suppress her urge to barge in right now and rescue Elizabeth from Zhao Yao’s clutches. She asked, “So what are you going to do now?”

“I’ll be getting Nessie and Barbie to help us out. I’ll need some time to gather information on the sentry system and the power of the apostles.” The middle-aged man continued with a straight face, “We only have one chance. We need to eliminate all his guards in an instant. Then, I’ll occupy the old man’s body, so we cannot afford to screw up.”

“An instant?” Shun Meng sniggered, “That seems a little difficult.”

“Hmph,” The middle-aged man nodded his head and said, “Actually, I recently found a cat with lots of potentials. From the looks of it, I will not be able to act anytime soon. I must succeed.”

...

Inside Starry Starry Pet Hospital, a teenager secretly crept into Dr. Liu’s office and went straight to the corner of the room. He reached his hand towards the cage resting against the wall.

A beautiful white cloth draped over the cage, but there was a menacing grant ringing from within.

However, the grunt immediately stopped when the teenager began reaching his arm forward.

“Who are you?!”

A grin crept onto the teenager’s face. However, his body froze when he was about to remove the piece of white cloth. He stared dumbfoundedly at the cage and it seemed like he was processing an influx of information rushing through his head.

Suddenly, he retreated from the cage and hurriedly dashed out of the office, leaving behind the Pallas’s cat’s menacing growls.

“Don’t leave! Come back! Open the cage!”

“I have a precious family heirloom to show you!”

...

Inside the café, everyone was oblivious to the impending crisis that was slowly inching towards them.

After Old Man Zhuang and his entourage left the café, Shi Yu secretly came to Zhao Yao’s side and began questioning him.

“Do you know who that old man is?”

Zhao Yao raised his brow and replied nonchalantly, “I guess he’s some high ranking government official, but I’m not sure.”

“He’s not just any high ranking official. He is a super duper high ranking official.” Shi Yu immediately whipped out her phone and flashed a photo in Zhao Yao’s face. It was an old and grainy photo, but he could recognize it as a screenshot from a news channel.

“Oh, he has been on TV? No wonder I found him so familiar.”

Shi Yu grew even more flustered when she noticed Zhao Yao’s neutral expression.

Shi Yu continued, “Don’t you want to climb up these rungs of the social ladder? This guy is an extremely powerful and influential figure. You can become good friends with him by using your healing power. He might even invite his influential friends over in the future. If the results are good, you might be their assistant that would provide this treatment to them once or twice every week!”

However, Zhao Yao remained indifferent to everything that Shi Yu said. If he really craved for money and power, there were so many avenues which he could rely on given the current power that he had.

The main reason he even bothered opening this cat café was for the experience points from his monthly mission.

Zhao Yao gave his usual nonchalant reply after hearing Shi Yu’s pitch, “Oh, is that so? Is that what Inspector Ho told you?”

“I’ve also done my research.” Shi Yu said as her eyes burned with concentration, “Do you intend to live off of this cafe for the rest of your life? Shouldn’t you use your superpower to make a fortune now? Isn’t this your opportunity?”

Zhao Yao just uttered a few words to appease her, “Indeed. Indeed. I’ll try my best.”

“Try to be nicer to that bodyguard called Ah Wei. Stop acting as if he owes you millions of dollars. Haven’t you heard that powerful leaders always share an intimate relationship with their bodyguards?”

Zhao Yao answered, “Hmph, yes, I understand.”

Zhao Yao finally heaved a sigh of relief after pacifying Shi Yu with some meaningless words. Deep down, he thought, “This is troublesome. I have no intention of climbing up this arbitrary social ladder. I just want to eat, enjoy and then die. Why are there so many powerful leaders here?”

Suddenly, a shadow appeared from the corner of his eyes and leaped onto his lap.

It was Matcha. He began rubbing his body against Zhao Yao’s chest and exposed his white belly. He stared at Zhao Yao and commented, “Zhao Yao, you’ve turned so handsome recently.”

“Speak up, what do you want?” Zhao Yao answered coolly.

Matcha immediately went to his feet and placed his front paw on Zhao Yao’s chest, “Zhao Yao. My emotional memories have returned and began flooding my mind once again. Every night when I dream, I dream of Princess Qian. I wake up to a wet pillow every single morning.”

Zhao Yao curled his lips and grunted, “Is it because of your eye booger disturbing your eyes?”

“What am I supposed to do?” Matcha cried as he clutched his head and screamed in despair, “This cannot continue. My mind is flooded with images of Princess Qian, and I just can’t seem to forget about her. I can’t eat. I can’t shit. I just want to flood the apartment with urine.”

“I think you are just horny.” Zhao Yao rolled his eyes and slapped against Matcha’s head, “I’m sure you’re capable of settling your urges. You just have to find an avenue to vent your emotions.”

Matcha wagged his tails in anger, “Zhao Yao, what are you talking about? Do you actually think that my love for Princess Qian is limited to mating? I love her for who she is. It is never about the dirty things in your head.”

“I understand. Your love for her body is an innocent love. You just want to share a physical bond with her.” Zhao Yao continued annoyingly, “However, it is useless. I gave you an idea but you cannot persevere.”

“No, I have thought through this carefully. The physical distance between her and me is the reason. A long-distance relationship is a taboo in any healthy, stable relationships. There will never be a happy ending. I need to meet Princess Qian and confess my love to her. Our relationship can only be salvaged if I do that.”

Zhao Yao was indifferent to Matcha’s concerns and sniggered, “Originally all your dirty thoughts were confined to that tiny head of yours. Now, you are going to translate them into action?”

Matcha just pounced onto Zhao Yao’s calf and continually rubbed his head against his legs, “Please, Zhao Yao! I’m going to die if I don’t see her.”

“I think you mean you are going to die if you don’t mate with her.” Zhao Yao said helplessly, “Alright, I’ll come up with a new idea.” He thought, “I can’t keep using my illusions to cover up for him. I need to come up with an idea to distract him and make him work for a few weeks. Hmph, maybe I can even strengthen his fighting spirit and make him work harder when entertaining the customers.”

In Matcha’s eyes, Zhao Yao’s eyes were burning with hopes of a brighter future.

Suddenly, Zhao Yao spoke, “From my twenty odd years of experience, whoever who initiates in a relationship will be the one on the losing end. Your job is to make yourself more attractive and make her chase you instead.”
