Chapter 251 - 141 Saving a Cat, Local Bully_2
...
On Flower and Bird Street, a young man was strolling along with a black cat, casually playing with a walnut.
The nearby bird and flower vendors greeted him warmly—not because they knew the young man well, but purely out of respect for the black cat.
After some probing, Xu Qing learned from the vendors that his cat wandered here every few days, becoming quite well-known along Flower and Bird Street.
As they entered a less crowded alley, Xu Qing asked, "Does Xuan Yu often come here to play?"
"Not often, just occasionally wanders around..."
"Ha." Xu Qing chuckled lightly. Cats are naturally fond of birds and butterflies, so he thought Xuan Yu probably came for those.
As they passed through the alley, a vendor selling cats and dogs was arguing with someone.
"This is a purebred Lion Cat. Look at its snow-white fur, its sturdy build, and those two different-colored eyes—one blue, one green! This is a tribute cat from the Imperial Palace, beloved by noblemen. Ordinary cats can’t compare!"
While speaking, the vendor suddenly noticed Xuan Yu passing by. "Look at that cat, pitch-black like a burned egg. You couldn’t even get a hundred copper plates for it!" he scoffed.
