Next, Zhao Yao sought out Red Packet.
He felt that their trip to Chuan Xiao District had helped them bond. He trusted him enough to let him roam freely in the belly. The cat was now flopped on the floor, eyes glued to an anime that lit up his tablet screen.
He immediately tensed when he noticed Zhao Yao approaching.
"Don't stab me! Don't stab me!" he cried, scrambling to get onto his feet.
Zhao Yao rolled his eyes. It seemed like Red Packet's impression of him was very much shaped by his performance at Chuan Xiao.
He patiently explained what really happened to the frightened cat, whom gradually calmed down. Zhao Yao tentatively reached out to stroke his back.
"Hey," he started, "I still don't know what your power actually is."
Red Packet eyed the human suspiciously.
"Good luck, I guess. I seem to be able to make money more easily from anything I do."
