Bai Ziyu had guessed wrong… No one would care about changing clothes in front of a pet.
After all, the two of them were completely different species.
Moreover, it was her adorable little cat.
Who would feel embarrassed about being seen by a kitty?
Some people would even pick the cat up and shower her with kisses.
As the cat in question, she turned away.
“Meow.”
She’s actually changing right in front of me.
“Meow.”
What a pervert.
Bai Ziyu had no intention of peeking.
After all, she wasn’t some weirdo who enjoyed watching people undress.
Besides, the black cat had her own considerations.
She couldn’t stay a cat forever.
If she ever met someone she could fully trust, becoming human again was her ultimate wish.
A human body was far more convenient than a cat’s. She could even ride amusement park attractions… though she would still have to hide her ears and tail carefully.
Otherwise, if her true identity were discovered…
It would be a disaster.
“Meow~”
I’m so pitiful~
While Bai Ziyu was sighing inwardly, rustling sounds continued behind her—the soft friction of fabric against skin.
The black cat sat crouched on the floor, staring at the bathroom door.
Yet her thoughts kept drifting, imagining what the scene behind her might look like.
It wasn’t entirely her fault… A girl was changing clothes right behind her, and she couldn’t leave. It was only natural for the sounds to draw her attention.
Bai Ziyu was no saint.
She couldn’t endure it forever.
“Meow?”
Are you done yet?
The black cat grew a little impatient.
She kept pawing at the tiles, unsure whether the girl was really taking that long or if her sense of time had become distorted.
There was no clock in the bathroom, so Bai Ziyu had no idea how much time had passed.
But the unbearable feeling tormented her every second.
The black cat had never seen Luo Yunzhi fully naked—only the reflection when she bathed—so her imagined scenes held no improper allure.
Yet compared to any beautiful image…
She just wanted to get out of here.
“Meow?”
Does the bathroom even have spare clothes?
“Meow.”
I don’t think I saw any.
Bai Ziyu’s thoughts were a mess.
She forced herself to stop imagining and focus on something else.
When they entered the bathroom, she hadn’t noticed any other clothes.
The black cat had a faint bad feeling. Before she could dwell on it, the figure behind her finally finished changing.
Steam from the hot water filled the air, creating a thin mist that made everything look slightly hazy.
Luo Yunzhi gathered her clothes and tossed them all into the washing machine.
She added detergent, then turned on the machine.
Whoosh—water began flowing noisily again.
It sounded rather loud.
“Ugh… I need to change into a new set of clothes.” The girl’s tone drifted over softly.
Her original outfit was soaked with foam and couldn’t be worn anymore.
Changing wasn’t a big deal anyway.
For Luo Yunzhi right now, the most important thing was still her black cat.
The bath wasn’t finished yet.
She slowly walked behind the black cat.
And squatted down.
“Little White, it won’t take long.”
The girl spoke.
“I’ll be done washing you in a moment.”
Luo Yunzhi placed her hand on the black cat’s head and couldn’t resist rubbing vigorously, messing up the fur even more.
The black cat let out a discontented “meow,” clearly still refusing the bath.
She stood up again and pressed herself closer to the bathroom door.
But Bai Ziyu still couldn’t open it.
She gritted her teeth, completely at a loss for what to do, and could only stand there frozen.
She emptied her mind.
Out of sight, out of mind.
“See? You can’t escape even if you try.” Luo Yunzhi’s voice was full of laughter.
“So you might as well behave and listen obediently.”
The girl tilted her gaze slightly.
A full-length mirror stood in the bathroom, reflecting the figures of both the girl and the black cat.
The black cat looked like a sulking fluffball, standing there venting her resentment, while the girl happily stroked the little cat’s head with a face full of joy.
She thought for a few seconds.
Then shook her head.
“Perfect. Since my clothes are already wet anyway, I’ll just change into something new later.”
The girl reached out and lifted the black cat by her belly, holding her up.
Bai Ziyu was full of resentment and tried to struggle free, but Luo Yunzhi pulled her close, pressing the cat’s entire back against her chest in a hugging embrace.
The black cat froze instantly.
Her mind went blank.
“Then I’ll just bathe with you.”
The girl smiled gently.
Luo Yunzhi’s clear voice echoed in the bathroom. The black cat finally pinpointed the source of her bad feeling.
The girl… she wasn’t wearing anything at all right now.
Completely bare, she held the black cat against her chest.
Bai Ziyu panicked slightly. Her nose caught the faint citrus scent.
She could feel the girl’s body heat and even detect her heartbeat—fast, like pounding drums.
“Meow!”
Y-y-y-you!
“Meow!”
M-m-me!
At that moment, Bai Ziyu could barely form words. She had no idea what to say.
This was the first time she had ever been in such an awkward situation.
The black cat’s eyes inadvertently glanced toward the full-length mirror nearby. In it, faint silhouettes appeared.
She quickly shut her eyes… Bai Ziyu didn’t dare look.
What frightened her most was that if she saw the girl without clothes, and one day she really transformed back into a human, Luo Yunzhi might bashfully beat her to death.
The girl’s strength was something the black cat had already experienced that day in the bathroom.
The black cat went completely limp.
Her mind wandered.
“Hehe, you’ve finally given up.”
Sensing that the cat in her arms had stopped resisting, the girl felt her earlier words had worked.
The corners of her mouth curved into a victorious smile, as if she were a triumphant general and the black cat was her prize. She lifted her high.
The overhead light poured down, bathing both girl and cat in a soft glow.
“Don’t worry, Little White. I’ll definitely wash you until you’re sparkling clean.”
Luo Yunzhi blinked.
And made the promise.
“Meow.”
Whatever…
The black cat replied weakly.
She just wanted this torture to end quickly.
She kept her eyes tightly closed and silently counted the seconds in the darkness.
Luo Yunzhi drained the previous water from the bathtub and refilled it.
Then she plopped herself into the water with a splash.
Waves surged outward, wetting the tiled floor.
She still held the black cat, submerging most of the cat’s body in the water as well.
“We’ll both smell nice and clean~”
The girl giggled.
“Then I’ll take you out to buy something delicious.” Luo Yunzhi let the water splash around her.
A slight movement sent ripples spreading outward.
The black cat felt like a toy being played with at will. But at the mention of “something delicious,” she perked up a little.
“Meow.”
Hurry up.
