Chapter 78: The Cat Needs to be Neutered

Translator: Zayn_

At this moment, Zhizhi’s eyes were half-closed, looking like it was about to wake up.

After the doctor examined it, his expression relaxed a lot. “It’s fine now that it’s awake. It’s very healthy and there are no signs of a cold.”

Song Qingyou thanked him and continued, “Zhizhi is a stray cat. Please give it all the necessary inoculations.”

“No problem.”

The doctor put his hand into his pocket. “Other than the vaccine, your cat seems to be seven months old. Do you want to neuter it directly?”

“Neuter-” Song Qingyou was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.

“Then we’ll do it!”

As the two of them were discussing sterilization, Jiang Zhihan, who had fallen into a coma again, regained consciousness in the cat’s body.

He opened his eyes in a daze and heard the two people beside him talking about something… Neutering?

“Aiya, it’s awake.”

The doctor exclaimed, “This cat’s eyes are really beautiful. They are dark green.”

Song Qingyou stroked the cat’s head. “Zhizhi.”

Jiang Zhihan looked at Song Qingyou, who was squatting down, and subconsciously said, “Meow-”

“You actually took the initiative to call me today. Zhizhi, are you feeling unwell somewhere?”

Facing Song Qingyou’s suspicious gaze, Jiang Zhihan turned his head to the side and ignored her.

“Doesn’t your cat meow?” the doctor asked with a smile.

“Yes, not only does he rarely meow, but he also doesn’t lick his fur.”

“Don’t worry. Pets are like humans. They all have their own personalities.”

Hearing the doctor’s words, Song Qingyou relaxed.

“You go and clean the cat first so that it can get vaccinated and stuff later.”

Song Qingyou thought the doctor had forgotten to ‘neuter’, so she couldn’t help but remind him, “About the neutering

“Shh— ” The doctor quickly signaled her to be silent.

Then he said in a low voice and pointedly, “You should know that cats are very vindictive, right? If your cat knows about this…”

Everything was said without words.

“In short, you have to cooperate with me to put on an act later. Otherwise, the cat will hate you.”

Song Qingyou nodded solemnly, then took Zhizhi to take a shower.

Seeing that Zhizhi was still very reluctant to help her wash certain parts of his body, Song Qingyou felt that the doctor was right.

He was already so reluctant to be touched. If he knew that she was going to cut off that thing… Wouldn’t Zhizhi hate her?

Therefore, as soon as she dried the cat, Song Qingyou showed off her acting skills.

She looked at the doctor hesitantly.

“Doctor, can you not give Zhizhi the vaccine? He might be afraid of pain.”

“No, we have to do it! This is a must!”

Not only did he have to get a vaccine, but he also had to get anesthesia!

The doctor replied firmly and reached out to snatch the cat.

Song Qingyou took a step back. “Zhizhi is still so young. He won’t be able to take it if we give him a few shots!”

“Even if he can’t stand it, he has to!”

The doctor’s expression was fierce.

It was obvious that he had acted this scenario out many times.

Jiang Zhihan, who was tightly hugged by Song Qingyou, was confused.

Isn’t it just a vaccine? How could he be afraid?

And Song Qingyou… even when facing a typhoon and tsunami, she didn’t show such a terrified expression, right?

Was there water in his head?

Jiang Zhihan couldn’t take it anymore when he saw the two of them fighting over him.

After struggling for a while, he hugged the doctor’s hand with both his paws and urged him with his eyes, ‘Hurry! Take me to get a vaccine! Don’t keep fighting here!’

The doctor met the cat’s eyes and was stunned. “Miss Song, you cat… is quite obedient.”

Song Qingyou’s mouth twitched.

Thinking that her cat seemed to be very smart, she continued to act. “Doctor, you can’t do this! 1 won’t allow it!”

She had perfectly portrayed a willful little girl who was worried about the cat’s safety.

The doctor snatched the cat away. “It needs to be done! Xiao Li, stop her!”

Another doctor who was also wearing a white coat responded and stood between the two of them.

“Zhizhi-”

Song Qingyou reached out.

She looked like Xu Xian who had seen Bai Suzhen enter Leifeng Pagoda.[l]

Jiang Zhihan’s mind was filled with question marks. It was just a vaccine. Did it have to be like this?

Or was Song Qingyou afraid that he wouldn’t be able to take the vaccine?

‘Who are you looking down on?¹

With that thought in mind, even though Jiang Zhihan hated being hugged, he still stayed in the doctor’s arms and watched him close the door.

He was as obedient as she could be!

The girl who claimed to be Song Qingyou’s fan was waiting inside.

As soon as the doctor placed the cat on the operating table, she said happily,

“I didn’t expect to not only meet Sister Qingyou, but also have the chance to help Zhizhi cut o! Hahahahahaha…”

The doctor rolled his eyes. “Don’t laugh so pervertedly. You might scare the cat.”

“Oh, oh.” The little girl immediately covered her mouth.

Jiang Zhihan couldn’t understand.

‘What does cut o mean?¹

Before he could figure it out, his attention was attracted by the syringe that the doctor took out.

“I’ll give it the vaccine first.”

The little girl saw that the cat was motionless and couldn’t help but praise, “Zhizhi is so brave. It’s not afraid of the injection. Does it know that the injection is for its own good?”

The doctor, who had never watched the live broadcast, sneered. “What are you talking about?! Some cats weren’t afraid of injections because their reactions were slow!”

Jiang Zhihan suddenly turned around.

Who was slow to react?

Unfortunately, it was useless no matter how much he glared at him. The doctor did not stop at all as he continued to administer the vaccine.

The little girl explained, “You didn’t watch Man vs. Wild. This episode was really good. Zhizhi even saved Sister Qingyou a few times! Any other cat could be said to be slow, but Zhizhi was definitely not slow!”

“Is that so? 1’11 go and take a look when I’m free.”

The doctor threw away the used needle and gave the little girl a look. “You have to be prepared next.”

“It’s alright!”

The little girl grinned. “Zhizhi is so calm even after getting the vaccine. It won’t be a problem even if you cut it later…”

“Sigh, but it’s a pity. From now on, Zhizhi will become a little eunuch.”

Before she could finish her sentence, Jiang Zhihan was shocked!

What did this person just say?

Little eunuch?

Him?

After all this time, they were actually going to neuter him?!

Jiang Zhihan’s dark green eyes were filled with disbelief.

He had never come into contact with pets before, so he didn’t remember that cats needed to be sterilized at six to eight months old!

At this moment, he realized what Song Qingyou and the doctor’s confusing behavior at the door meant!

So these people were treating him like a fool!

However, he was not a real cat. If he was really sterilized, what if it was reflected on his main body?!

Therefore, he had to escape!

“I still have to be careful.” The doctor’s voice sounded again. He took out another needle.

Jiang Zhihan didn’t even need to think to know that the needle was definitely anesthesia!

His two cat ears slowly flattened and his tail rose higher and higher. His eyes stared at the surroundings, waiting for an opportunity to move.

The little girl who was pressing on him seemed to think that he was not struggling and was not very vigilant. She even raised her hand to wipe her hair. Jiang Zhihan took the opportunity to escape her grasp, jumped up and onto the top of the cabinet opposite him!

“All! Zhizhi-”

“Doctor! It ran away!”

When the little girl called out, the doctor quickly put down the anesthetic needle and and went to help catch the cat.
