My neighbor has a Ragdoll cat. So well-behaved and pretty! I want to pet it so badly, so badly, so badly!

My neighbor looks a little familiar, but he's so fierce-looking, with a cold expression. I didn't dare say I wanted to see his cat.

Now I know why he looked familiar... He's actually a nice person. I'll try again another day.

Moving day was a total disaster. Jiang Yu went out onto the balcony for some air and accidentally locked eyes with her neighbor's Ragdoll cat.
A few days later, she mustered up her courage and knocked on the neighbor's door. When it opened, a guy in a black tank top stuck his head out. His features were sharp, his expression cold and fierce, and several bloody scratches stretched from the corner of his eye down his cheek.
She stared at the somewhat familiar face, her mind going blank. She stammered several times but couldn't manage to ask to see his cat.
After realizing her neighbor was the crush she'd met once before, she found another chance to knock on his door. This time, she didn't see the fierce-looking neighbor, but she got a complete rejection.
Unexpectedly, when she opened the door the next day, her neighbor's Ragdoll cat was sprawled outside, lazily flicking its tail.

Gu Yi thought something was off about his cat.
His usually lazy cat had recently started running to the balcony all the time, jumping around and acting far too lively.
He opened a pet blogger's account that he'd followed for a long time to look for answers, but the blogger's recent posts seemed a little strange too.
They weren't animal facts or cat-care tips, but questions to followers about how to pet the neighbor's cat.
There was nothing he could do. He liked the post and left, until he saw the blogger's latest update.
The blogger said she'd been rejected. The neighbor who rejected her had a Ragdoll cat named Maizi.
Gu Yi looked down at Maizi, who was scratching the sofa, and pondered for a few seconds.
The next day, he brought Maizi to his neighbor's door.

Well, I got rejected.
He said Maizi, his cat, has a bad temper.
What a lousy excuse for turning someone down. The kitten is clearly so gentle.

?!
I just opened the door, and my neighbor's cat pounced on me and grabbed my pant leg!
That fluffy little head kept rubbing against me. So cute!
But my neighbor is really irresponsible. He accidentally let the cat out of the house. How dangerous.

Maybe it wasn't an accident. The kitten has shown up at my door at the same time every day for five days. I suspect my neighbor did it on purpose.
7.4
My neighbor said he didn't know the kitten had snuck out, and I was overthinking it.
7.5
What should I do if my neighbor's cat won't leave me alone?
8.15
Maybe it's not just the cat.
Yeah, someone even clingier than the cat.
|| Little Scene ||
Jiang Yu came across an anonymous question in her Weibo Q&A box.
"Do you still like your neighbor's cat?"
"Ginger Fish: Yes! But I don't like the neighbor!"
A few minutes later, Jiang Yu got a private message from a username that made it obvious who it was, but she didn't call him out.
[Maizi Guzi: Why don't you like the neighbor?]
[Ginger Fish: He's too fierce.]
[Maizi Guzi: Fierce how?]
[Ginger Fish: Too fierce when he kisses me.]
[Ginger Fish: Next time, I'll bite him.]
[Maizi Guzi: You're kind of... just like my cat.]
[Ginger Fish: And you're kind of just like my neighbor.]
[Ginger Fish: T^T]
Both are each other's first love, one-on-one pairing, happy ending.
