Chapter 307: New Stunts

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Zhao Qi and Song Bai were enthralled by the unexpected gossip of the past.

After Zhang Zian finished speaking, they kept asking him questions, longing for more details.

Zhang Zian gradually became impatient. He waved his hand and said, "Not that I don’t want to share with you, it’s just that I really don’t know much about it. I just happened to learn about the drama from my parents."

He heard about the issue on a summer night in the past, when he came back home from college for summer vacation. He and his parents went to the rooftop to enjoy the cool evening, and his parents were talking about some news, while he was playing his cell phone. He was engaging in their conversation only from time to time, so he had only heard limited contents of the news. Zhang Zian’s parents also felt it was a pity that Dragon-Li cats were removed from the breed catalog of the CFA. Because once recognized by the CFA, there would be many benefits to Dragon-Li cats, such as promotion of status. Though CFA was only a non-governmental organization in the United States, there were no counterparts in China, and generally, the pet industry in China had been using the CFA standard.

"What a pity... but why did the CFA refuse to return those cats to the Great Wall Club?" Zhao Qi’s patriotism was inspired — she was indignant at the CFA and felt sorry for the Great Wall Club.

Song Bai also thought that what the CFA did was impenetrable.

Zhang Zian was relatively calmer, "Don’t judge too fast. What I said just now is only one version of many rumors, and it’s hard to tell whether it is true. No one knows exactly what happened except the insiders. Besides, there must be reasons that CFA chose to keep those cats, perhaps there were some misunderstandings during communication…anyways, there’s no going back now."

He put the black Dragon-Li that he had been holding in his arms on the ground, stroked the back of its neck, and said to them, "What I mean to let you know is that, the most important thing is that you like Dragon-Li cats, and there’s no point in fixating on their conditions."

The black Dragon-Li felt very comfortable being stroked by Zhang Zian, and it narrowed its eyes and uttered some "purr, purr" sounds.

Song Bai hated to see Dragon-Li cats miss the chance to make their names known internationally. He wanted to fight for them. Hands trembling slightly, an idea was sprouting in his head. Maybe to some extent, he could achieve something that the Great Wall Club failed to do—introduce Dragon-Li cats to the whole world!

Perhaps this was not enough to make the CFA re-admit the Dragon-Li cats, but at least he could let more people in the world know about the existence of Dragon-Li cats, so that more people would begin to like such cats from China.

But then he sighed again. His vlogs usually just attracted hundreds of views, so how was he going to make Dragon-Li cats popular?

Zhao Qi and Zhang Zian didn’t notice his complicated thoughts at this time. They were teasing the black Dragon-Li using their fingers. The black Dragon Li was chasing their fingers lively, like a black ball of fur rolling on the ground.

"Can you make it perform a stunt?" Song Bai hesitated for a long time, and finally made this request.

"Of course." Zhang Zian stood up, and smiled mysteriously at Zhao Qi.

Seeing his pretentious smile, Zhao Qi was reminded of what he had said before, and she suddenly had some hunch—"Your cats have learned new stunts?"

"That’s right! Even a pet shop should keep up with the times!"

Zhang Zian was smirking loftily, like he had become the best in the world.

After his pets were returned from the clinic, although he was still suffering from a cold, he insisted on working. He asked Fina to teach the kittens a set of new stunts with more complicated and lengthy movements that would astonish everyone…too bad no one was going to award him banners and medals.

"The new stunts are way more complicated than merely walking in figure eights." Zhang Zian pulled out his cellphone and switched the screen to the music player app, "It’s better when accompanied by music."

"Accompanied by music?" said Song Bai, whose jaw was dropping. The kittens could also understand music?

Eyes wide open, Zhao Qi excitedly urged Zhang Zian to start. Zhang Zian had promised her before that after the introduction of new stunts, he would teach them to her Lan Lan for free. But even if the new stunts were nothing special, she would not waste such a free teaching opportunity. She didn’t care if Zhang Zian would call her a stingy person.

Holding his camera, Song Bai was also looking forward to the new stunts. The views and influence of this vlog on YouTube completely depended on how great the abilities of Zhang Zian cats were.

"The special effects will be more impressive if more cats perform together." Zhang Zian put the black Dragon-Li together with other kittens, and then clapped his hands three times.

Receiving the instructions that Fina had rehearsed with them before, the kittens immediately stopped playing. Squatting on the floor quietly, they raised their faces to look at him, just like a group of trained soldiers.

"Ah!!!" screamed Zhao Qi excitedly. She was melted by their cuteness.

Indeed, for cat lovers, this scene alone was enough to melt their hearts—dozens of cute eyes were gazing at them, because usually cats were too proud to glance at humans.

Even Song Bai, who had not raised cats before, was moved by them. He held his camera and went to shoot next to Zhang Zian, focusing on the black Dragon-Li among the kittens.

Zhang Zian clapped his hand again while starting the music player.

Accompanied by drums, the music with strong beats started to be heard from the cell phone speaker, and the kittens immediately began to dance in unison!

The prelude to the song sounded very familiar. Before Zhao Qi figured out what song it was, the kittens had been marking time with their paws to keep in sync with the drum beats.

"You are my dear, little apple..."

"Like the most beautiful cloud in the sky..."

"Spring comes here again and brings flowers all over the mountain..."

"I harvest the hopes that I planted..."

Accompanied by the extremely popular song "Little Apple", which was frequently used in public square dancing, the kittens were dancing in small steps with their cute little short legs. As the music fared, they would move forward, backward, shake their heads, nod their heads, jump a little bit, swing their bodies, raise their left front paws to wave in the air, and then raise their right front paws to touch their faces. After every two lyrics, they would also twist their waists to face another direction, as if a group of lovely children were dancing.

"You are my dear, little apple..."

"I can never love you enough…"

"Your blush warms up my heart..."

"You kindle the passion in my life..."

The most surprising was that every move they took was precisely when the drum beat…the elements where the kittens waved their paws and touched their faces were also especially charming, like they were cleaning their faces. If the girl groups from Korea and Japan were acting cute while dancing, then the kittens were born to be cute!

As the cheerful and brief song ended, the kittens also stopped dancing and stayed at the same spots when the music began, then raised their little faces to gaze at Zhang Zian.

Zhao Qi was almost breathless, partly because of the cute kittens, partly because she was pissed off by Zhang Zian.

"Why?!" She shouted angrily, "Zhang Zian! Why do you have to choose ‘Little Apple’?! Is there no other song in this world?!"

According to her understanding of Zhang Zian, this guy was definitely inspired by the aunties that were dancing to the song in public squares!
