Wang Feng's behavior didn't seem like an act, and he had no motive to vouch for a cat he didn't know, which ant the mysterious liquid in the cup was very likely indeed delicious.
Ma Lu looked at the Ragdoll cat, who was also looking at him. Although it didn't speak, its eyes clearly said, I didn't lie to you, did I?
The two then returned to the restaurant, where Ma Lu fetched a clean cup from the sterilizer and placed it in front of the Ragdoll cat.
"Make another cup for a taste."
"You gotta be kidding , dude. There's nothing wrong with my kidneys; I've just peed 5 minutes ago, why would I need to pee again?" complained the Ragdoll cat.
"Even if your drink tastes good enough, if you can't make it quickly, I can't sell it in the store," Ma Lu said, spreading his hands.
The Ragdoll cat sighed, "Okay, hand a bottle of liquor."
"Do you need alcohol to make that special beverage?"
The Ragdoll cat shook its head, "No need; theoretically, I can drink anything. Liquor just makes it easier for to pee."
"Alright then." Ma Lu bought it a bottle of Erguotou, opened the cap and passed it over. The Ragdoll cat didn't ask for a cup but chose to blow into the bottle, chugging it all down in one go.
Then they started a staring contest again.
"It's pretty boring just waiting like this, give a cigarette will ya."
Ma Lu lit a Yuxi cigarette he had just bought for it, watching as it puffed smoke for about three minutes.
Afterward, the Ragdoll cat suddenly raised its eyebrows, "Oh, here it cos!"
Having said that, it stood up like a human, spread its legs, and started peeing into the empty cup, filling the entire cup in no ti.
It even spilled a little on the outside.
Ma Lu picked up the cup, still warm, and without hesitation, took a big gulp right there.
Liliem removed her hand from covering her eyes, curious, "How is it, how is it?"
Ma Lu didn't say anything but just scooped so and held it in front of her.
Seeing the layer of foam on top, Liliem wore a complex expression but ultimately trusted Ma Lu and poured so into a kettle, starting to drink it.
"Hey, this taste... it's too delicious."
Liliem had only intended to have a taste, but before she knew it, she had finished what was in the kettle. She couldn't help but refill it with the spoon, and drank again, "Oh no, I just can't... stop."
Her little face had turned red, and as she was talking, there were footsteps outside the door. Ma Lu swiftly scooped up Liliem, who was getting a bit tipsy, and tucked her into his pocket.
Soon after, Wang Feng's figure appeared at the door. Ma Lu opened the door, and Wang Feng scratched his head, sowhat embarrassedly.
"Boss Ma... um, do you have any more of that cat urine beer? I drank mine too quickly and would like to savor it again... Don't worry, I'll pay this ti."
"Oh, oh, oh, that was just a trial production, we only made a little bit of it and haven't started officially selling it yet, it's all gone."
"Is that so?" A hint of disappointnt flickered in Wang Feng's eyes, but then he grabbed Ma Lu's hand and earnestly implored,
"Boss Ma, you must put such a delicious drink up for sale soon."
"I'll try to arrange it as soon as possible, and I'll be sure to notify Boss Wang first when it's on the shelves."
After sending off Wang Feng, who kept looking back with every step, Ma Lu closed the door again, only to see the ragdoll cat spewing another smoke ring.
"I told you, I wouldn't lie to you, that's my... excrent. The psychological pressure is much bigger on than on you when I drink it myself."
At this point, Ma Lu thought of another question, "How did you first discover your golden finger?"
"......"
The ragdoll cat fell silent.
"Alright, let's skip that question," Ma Lu said, "Next question, how many drinks can you produce in one day?"
"I've never tried, theoretically, as long as I keep drinking water, I'll keep peeing. But that'd be too miserable, no different from my previous job. In fact, I think this qualifies as cat abuse. I could file a complaint with the International Association for Small Animals, or just post it on TikTok."
"Don't worry, we at Universe Infinite Canteen always put the physical and ntal health of our employees first and wouldn't force..."
Ma Lu hadn't finished speaking when he was interrupted by the ragdoll cat.
"Unless you buy alcohol."
"What did you say?"
The ragdoll cat repeated, "Unless you let drink the kind of alcohol I had just now. What's it called? It's quite strong, and I'm starting to feel a bit high."
"That was Er Guo Tou from Niulanshan, 53% alcohol by volu."
"Cool, I want two cases, every day, and cigarettes... As long as I have cigarettes and alcohol, I can work tirelessly for you like a shorthair cat slave in the Catnip Plantation, day and night."
"Wait a mont, you just said drinking water was too miserable, and even ntioned contacting so international small animal organization."
"Drinking water is a no-go, but drinking alcohol is fine," the ragdoll cat said, "After all, I'll still pee after drinking alcohol, so it doesn't matter where I do it. This doesn't count as work for ; it's entertainnt. You know, being a pet cat, though worry-free about food and clothing and no longer having to work, also lacks a lot of fun."
"The people here, including my fiancée Xiao Yan, have almost pathological expectations for little kitties. I can't smoke, I can't drink, I can't swear, because it's not cute.
"To maintain our relationship, I made a great sacrifice, a really great one, so I want to make up for it doubly during this period. I want to do everything Xiao Yan forbade to do—no... actually, forget it. I'll just stick with smoking and drinking; the rest is too much of a hassle.
"My employee onboarding plan is to get plastered at your restaurant, ohoh, that sounds pretty cool, like I'm beating up capitalism. I need to write that down, where's my notebook?"
After downing a 500ml bottle of Er Guo Tou from Niulanshan, the ragdoll cat was noticeably drunk, searching intently for a nonexistent notebook.
Ma Lu said, "How about we discuss the employnt contract once you're sober?"
"No, no, no, I'm very lucid right now. Actually, this is going to be the most lucid I'll be for a while."
"Alright then, your conditions should be fine by us, we can et them. If you don't have any more concerns, we can sign the employnt contract."
"Print the employnt contract on my butt! Hahaha, you evil capitalist, you just love these dirty gas, don't you." The ragdoll cat said this while sticking out its butt, stretching its body into a long line.
"To avoid any regrets once you're sober, we'll stick to A4 paper."
"I don't know, I don't like A4 paper much, I'll probably shred it with my claws."
"No worries, I have a backup copy. By the way, I don't think I've asked yet, what's your na? Or would you prefer I call you Mr. Furball, like Xiao Yan does?"
"That's not my na, it's just so silly na that woman ca up with, she wouldn't stop calling that even when I didn't agree, kept calling that, actually my na is..." the ragdoll cat began to say but then paused, collapsing back into the chair like a deflated ball, muttering.
"It doesn't matter anymore, none of it's important... I'm just a pet now, you might as well call Mr. Furball."
