Chapter 163: No Raw Food


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


It was evening time.


Zhang Zian was resting on the recliner.


Since the gla.s.s door was broken, the cold wind rushed into the store without anything stopping it. The store was as cold as it was outside. He didn't want to fall asleep in case he caught a cold in his sleep; therefore, he sometimes stood up to move around and sometimes played hide-and-seek with Galaxy.


"Grandma Tea, more tea for you?" he asked Old Time Tea.


Old Time had turned back into the laid-back, quiet, old cat. It was sitting on the electric blanket with both front paws tucked into its chest, happily watching TV. It could have a drink of tea by only dipping its head and not moving another muscle.


"I'm okay. I have plenty," Old Time Tea smiled.


"Okay," Zhang Zian didn't get up. He was planning to close the store in a bit.


"Do you really understand the meaning of 'I have plenty'?" Fina stood up from the highest cat tree, staring at him.


Zhang Zian was confused. "Doesn't it mean what it reads?"


Fina was worried about Zhang Zian's intelligence. Soon, it raised its head, "'I have plenty' means I already have enough tea. It is time for dinner! I don't understand why you are so stupid!"


Really?! That was interesting.


Just say the word if you are hungry. Why do you have to speak on behalf of Old Time Tea?!


Zhang Zian turned around to ask Old Time Tea, "Grandma Tea, are you hungry?"


Old Time Tea said peacefully, "Well, I am okay." When it said that it was okay, that meant it was hungry, because it was not demanding like Fina.


"Okay, I will cook," Standing up, Zhang Zian saw Galaxy sitting at the gate, watching pedestrians walk by.


"Galaxy, are you okay?" he asked. Ever since the naughty kid incident, he had become extremely alert.


"Zian, I am fine," Galaxy turned around and said.


Zhang Zian felt that Galaxy was not as scared of strangers as it used to be. When it first arrived, it was both curious and terrified of humans. It would always secretly observe humans behind the gla.s.s door. Whenever someone walked by, it would curl up, scared. Now, it sat in front of the broken gla.s.s door comfortably. Only when someone landed their eyes on it would it slightly curl up. Sometimes, when a customer walked in the store, it would escape and hide. There was definitely more curiosity in its heart than fear.


Now that the gla.s.s door was broken, so was the defensive wall towards humans in Galaxy's heart.


Zhang Zian recalled Old Time Tea's words: "When something is broken, a new and better replacement has to be established." He looked at Old Time Tea. There had to be great wisdom inside its sophisticated mind.


"Don't just stand there. I am starving!" Fina raised its front paw to pound on the cat tree angrily.


"It is unfortunate I have a demanding pet like you…" Zhang Zian sighed and walked upstairs, "When will I find a girlfriend? One that is gentle, caring and good at cooking…"


"What are you talking about? How dare you say something behind my back?!" Fina was even angrier. It jumped down the cat tree but Zhang Zian had already left.


"My majesty," Old Time Tea laughed, "I think he was just joking with you."


"Tut!" Fina's belly growled. "I was the distinguished pet in the old days and I never suffered from hunger. Now, I have to push him to cook for me every day."


As Fina was complaining, Galaxy noticed that across from the road, the street vendors Aunt Li and her husband came to start their dinner time business.


Zhang Zian took out the chicken breast and fish that he had prepared ahead of time. As usual, he turned on the oven, put the meat in, set a timer and started baking.


The oven didn't turn on, nor did the light inside even flicker.


"What's wrong? Did I forget to plug it in?" Zhang Zian stuck his head behind the oven and confirmed the oven was plugged in. He turned on the kitchen hood to make sure the circuit didn't trip. The kitchen hood was fine.


"Oh no. The oven is broken?"


He pounded on the oven in the hope of fixing it before he once again tried to turn on the oven.


Still nothing.


"Sh*t!"


The oven was from his parents. It was old but it had been functioning just fine. Today, it finally gave up.


Honestly, an oven wasn't expensive. However, should he get a new one from the store now? He was fine without food for a bit or he could even eat something else for dinner. However, Old Time Tea and Fina would be out of food. Especially troublesome was Fina; if he fed it the cat food from the store, it would not be good. When Fina was hungry, it was even more grumpy. Thinking that he had to tell it the bad news about not having food for at least another hour or two, he was terrified.


He tried several times. It didn't work. If he could just cook the fish and meat with the stove… No, this was way too difficult for him to try.


Walking around in the kitchen, he was out of ideas. So, he walked downstairs slowly.


Fina was not done complaining yet. Once it saw him it started questioning, "Dinner is ready? How come it is so quick today?"


Old Time Tea was also curious. It knew that food wasn't ready because it didn't smell any aroma from the chicken or fish.


Zhang Zian cleared his throat and said, "I have a suggestion. How about we try something new today?"


"What is it?" Fina stared at him, coldly. "I am listening. However, don't even try to trick me like you trick others."


Zhang Zian felt helpless. Fina knew all his tricks. It wasn't easy to trick it. "Fina, maybe you don't know. There is a country to the east of ours, across from the sea, named j.a.pan."


"Yeah, I know this," Old Time Tea said. "I am curious: what is the relation between j.a.pan and dinner?"


Glancing at Fina's angry face, Zhang Zian said with all his courage, "In reference to j.a.pan, people there love one way to eat fish, called sas.h.i.+mi. In fact, sas.h.i.+mi originated from ancient China, but it became popular in j.a.pan. It started over 2000 years ago, in the same era you used to live in…"


"Well, don't talk nonsense. Tell me how to eat sas.h.i.+mi," Fina said as if it saw right through him. It stopped his BS.


"In fact, sas.h.i.+mi is another word for raw fish…" Zhang Zian hid himself behind Old Time Tea as he spoke.


"How dare you to tell me eat raw fish?! How dare you to compare me with those uncivilized crooks?!" Fina was angry for real this time. Its hair was exploding. "I never eat raw food!"


"My Majesty, please don't be mad." Old Time Tea paused the TV and tried to help calm down Fina. "Buddy, why did you suggest eating raw fish? Honestly, I don't really like raw food."


"Well…" Zhang Zian said, "Grandma Tea, the oven broke all of a sudden. If you guys can wait, I will get a new oven from the store… But right now it is a busy time, so the store might be busy."


Tilting its head, Galaxy was staring at the street cart across the road.


Aunt Li and her husband moved a few folding chairs off their tricycle and started their cart. They lit the portable lamp, turned on the stove, heated up the cooking surface and waited for their customers.
