Am I A God?

The small kitten was eager to pounce but held himself back. Matcha looked at him and asked, “What is your name?”

“I am Milk Tea.”

“A country bumpkin’s name,” Matcha thought. “Where did this kitten come from? Although Zhao Yao wants me to take care of him, I better investigate properly and find out where he came from. After verifying that he is not my son, I will be able to clear my name.”

Matcha smiled sweetly at his thoughts and said, “Milk Tea, who is your mum? Where is she now?”

Milk Tea blinked his eyes and felt Matcha was more affable with him. He happily replied, “My mum is my mum. She said she was going on a long trip and wanted me to look for you, daddy.”

“Don’t call me daddy, call me Brother Matcha!” Matcha corrected Milk Tea and said, “Did your mum say where she was going?”

Milk Tea lifted his head and thought for a while before saying, “Mum said she was going to a beach place. When I am a grown-up and financially independent, she would come and fetch me.”

“Perhaps his mum found him too troublesome and ditched him to enjoy herself.” Matcha pondered for a while and asked, “Do you remember where you were staying?” Milk Tea nodded and Matcha smiled with satisfaction. “Bring me to your place. I will help you find your mum.”

“Can we find mummy?” Milk Tea’s eyes illuminated like twinkling little stars that twinkled at Matcha.

“Of course.” Matcha thought, “Hmm, after finding his mum, I can pay a visit to Cat Street, hehehe.” He immediately recalled his lack of money. “I have spent all my money. This is troublesome. Who can I borrow from?”

Matcha immediately thought of Elizabeth who was a famous broadcaster with a sizable daily income.

Matcha reminded Milk Tea, “Remember, whoever asks you, say that you are my distant relative’s son. Never divulge that I am your daddy. Do you understand?”

Milk Tea nodded and immediately rushed forward to rub against Matcha but was pushed back by him.

“If you are unable to answer, just look at me. I will reply for you. Do not answer blindly. Do you understand?”

Milk Tea nodded and gazed at Matcha’s swinging tail.

Matcha walked towards Elizabeth and Milk Tea followed him like a small little tail trailing behind him.

Matcha smiled merrily at Elizabeth and said, “Elizabeth, lend me some money.”

“Trash.” Elizabeth glanced at Matcha but was attracted to Milk Tea, who was standing behind him. She looked curiously at Matcha then Milk Tea. She asked with curiosity, “This is…”

“My distant relative’s son.” Matcha explained, “He is here for the summer vacation. He is from the rural areas and is a bit of a country bumpkin. Do not be bothered by him.”

Elizabeth rolled her eyes in disbelief. She turned to Milk Tea and asked, “Little brother, what is your name?”

Milk Tea blinked his eyes and looked at Matcha who introduced him, “He is called Milk Tea.”

“Shut up.” Elizabeth activated her power of illusion to fend off Matcha. She gazed at Milk Tea and asked with curiosity, “Milk Tea, what is your relationship to this d*mn cat? Do not be afraid. Tell me honestly. He will not bully you with me around.”

Milk Tea and Matcha looked almost alike which piqued Elizabeth’s curiosity so she became extremely nosy.

Milk Tea kept quiet and looked at Matcha. However, Matcha was laughing heartily and chatting with an illusory Elizabeth so he was unaware that Milk Tea was looking to him for an answer.

Elizabeth probed further by asking, “Milk Tea? You look almost like Matcha and you are much younger. Are you his son?” Elizabeth could not resist laughing and thought, “How can Matcha have a son? I am thinking too much.”

Milk Tea was trembling with fright when he recalled Matcha’s words, “If you are unable to answer, just look at me, I will help you reply.”

Milk Tea looked at Matcha again and tried very hard until he was almost squinting.

Elizabeth looked puzzled at Milk Tea’s behavior. “Why are you always looking at Matcha?”

Milk Tea stopped his breathing and said nervously, “I… I am Milk Tea, the son of a distant relative of Brother Matcha. I am here for the summer vacation.”

“I am surprised Matcha has relatives.” Elizabeth shook her head and released Matcha from her power of illusion. “I have no money.”

“Ah, Elizabeth, weren’t we having such a good conversation just now?” Matcha did not realize that he was in an illusion just now and he begged, “Lizzie, lend me some money. Once I have a Death Exemption Ticket, I will give it to you.”

“Death Exemption Ticket? That is not a bad deal.” Elizabeth lifted her head pridefully and asked, “Do you think I will need it?

“Besides, you cheated so many cats before who knows if you are cheating me right now. I don’t believe you.”

Matcha pleaded for a long time but Elizabeth would not yield. Suddenly, he noticed Milk Tea and kept his wits. He said privately to Milk Tea, “Milk Tea, help me plead for money.”

“Ah?” Milk Tea said nervously, “But… but I haven’t pleaded before. I do not know how to plead.”

Matcha said confidently, “I am going to teach you the skills of survival. I will say a sentence and you follow.”

Milk Tea said, “Sister Lizzie, do not blame Matcha. He did it because of me.”

Elizabeth asked bewildered, “What do you mean?”

Milk Tea said, “Cry it out.”

Elizabeth frowned and asked, “What did you say?”

Matcha scolded Milk Tea in private, “I want you to cry, not asking you to say it out.”

Milk Tea said as instructed, “I want you to…”

Before Milk Tea completed his sentence, Matcha rushed forward and covered his mouth. At Elizabeth’s strange gaze, Matcha exclaimed, “Do not say anymore, Milk Tea. Do not spill out all your sorrows again.”

Elizabeth asked bewildered, “What are you up to?”

Matcha replied sadly to Elizabeth in private, “This kid… his mum is an ordinary stray cat without any fighting capability. He is still small and unable to control his superpower. One day, he saw his mum being bitten by a stray dog and… and…”

Matcha sobbed uncontrollably as he covered his mouth. He continued the private conversation with Elizabeth. “He witnessed his own mum being eaten by the stray dog.”

“Ah!” Elizabeth jumped in fright. She turned towards Milk Tea and looked at him with motherly love.

Matcha said privately to Milk Tea, “Spare me some money.”

Milk Tea looked absent-mindedly at Elizabeth and said, “Spare me some money.”

Elizabeth asked gently, “Milk Tea, why do you want money?”

Milk Tea repeated Matcha’s words, “I want to buy food for my mum.”

Matcha said privately to Elizabeth, “Because of the huge blow, he lost his memory. He forgot his mum had passed away. We did not dare to tell him the truth.”

Elizabeth was all in tears. Covering her mouth, she looked tenderly at Milk Tea.
