As soon as the question settled in the air, Lucius instantly jumped onto the table and turned its head away, expressing its firm refusal to enter the bathroom. It was only then that Gu Luoxin recalled that cats were supposed to hate water. He couldn't help but chuckle when he noticed how similar Lucius was to its owner. 

Gu Luoxin did not insist further. "Okay, no bathroom tour for you, then. I will just wipe your paws here." Still topless, he strolled over to the wardrobe and rummaged around for a small towel he usually used when he exercised once in a blue moon. "Aha, found it!" 

After dampening the towel with warm water in the bathroom, he returned and pulled a chair over to the table. He took a seat and offered a hand to the black cat, whose expression had taken a somewhat distant look by now. "Let's clean your paws first, shall we?"
