Chapter 361 Summoning the Cat-Eared Girl
Qin Yue put away the card, smiled, and stepped aside: "Congratulations on passing! Please welcome the bride, Vivian."
Vivian's figure slowly appeared at the top of the stairs.
She walked down the stairs step by step, her gaze always fixed on Lin Feng.
Lin Feng stood still, staring intently at her.
Vivian walked up to him, stopped, tilted her head to look at him, and spoke with a hint of coquettishness:
"You made cheat sheets beforehand, didn't you? You still managed to guess correctly!"
Lin Feng smiled and said, "I've been making cheat sheets about everything concerning Madam all the time."
Vivian paused for a moment, then her cheeks flushed slightly, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but curl upwards: "Smooth talker."
........................
The fourth level is in a room on the second floor. On the long table in the center of the room, there is a huge jigsaw puzzle.
There are at least two hundred pieces, and the design is a photo of Lin Feng and Leng Meng.
There was a timer next to it, with red numbers showing 05:00, and the numbers were currently at a standstill.
Qin Yue said with a smile, "Groom, the guardian of this challenge is Leng Meng. You have to complete the puzzle first before she will appear."
"The rules are simple: complete this puzzle within five minutes. If you're even one second late, Leng Meng won't be coming out today."
"Five...five minutes?" Qin Weiguo couldn't help but gasp. "A normal person would need an hour to put together this 200-piece jigsaw puzzle!"
Qin Yue smiled even more brightly: "That's why we say this is a test of the groom's ability and sincerity."
Lin Feng stared at the pile of fragments, his lips twitching.
Lin's mother, standing nearby, was so anxious she kept stamping her feet: "This...this is too difficult! Xiaofeng has never tried anything like this before!"
Su Wan smiled and comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, Feng will definitely have a way."
"What can we do? He can't do magic—"
Before he finished speaking, Lin Feng moved.
He raised his hands and formed a strange hand seal in front of his chest.
Wild Summoning, activate!
"A cute creature roaming between dimensions, descend upon us according to an ancient covenant—the tsundere cat-eared girl!"
He closed his eyes, his thoughts shooting like arrows into the void.
Soon, the air in front of Lin Feng began to distort. First, a slender, fair hand reached out, its fingertips slightly curled, carrying the languor of someone who had just woken up.
Immediately afterwards, her long, silver-gray hair cascaded down like a waterfall, with a pair of fluffy cat ears twitching gently, as if trying to catch the subtle sounds in the wind.
Finally, there was the fluffy, long tail, with a dark ring around the tip, which slowly swept across the air.
The cat-eared girl is fully revealed.
She was wearing a short cheongsam, the hem of which barely covered her thighs, revealing a section of her fair upper legs.
She was barefoot, her slender ankles were bare, and a red rope was tied around her ankles with two small bells hanging from them.
The cat-eared girl yawned, revealing two sharp little tiger teeth.
She raised her hand to rub her eyes, her voice still languid from just waking up: "Ugh...who disturbed my afternoon nap?"
The room fell into a deathly silence.
Then--
"Holy crap?!?!"
"W-What is this?!"
"A catgirl?! A living catgirl?!"
"Where did the groom come from?!"
Lin's mother opened her mouth wide, unable to speak for a long time. She pointed at the cat-eared girl, trembling for a long time but still unable to utter a single word.
Qin Yue coughed and said, "...The rules don't say that skills can't be used, so he's taking advantage of a loophole."
The timer started ticking: 04:59, 04:58...
Lin Feng strode up to the cat-eared girl and pointed to the pile of fragments on the table: "Help me put this puzzle together, the faster the better."
The cat-eared girl glanced at the two-hundred-piece puzzle, twitched her ears, and flicked her tail: "That's it?"
The next second, she moved.
Everyone only saw a blur before their eyes—the cat-eared girl's figure turned into a blur and instantly appeared in front of the long table.
Her hands moved so fast they were almost invisible; she muttered to herself as she pieced together the puzzle:
"This one with the bride's glasses is on the left... This one with the groom's shirt is on the right... This one has a solid color background, stacked according to the shades of color... This one has wrinkles on the edge, that's the texture of the clothing..."
The guests were dumbfounded.
"How...how did she divide it?"
"I can't even see clearly, how does she know which part is which?"
The cat-eared girl didn't turn her head, but her ears twitched, as if she had heard the questions.
A small smile curved her lips, her tone tinged with smugness:
"You two-legged creatures can only glance at things a few times per second. As for me—"
Her hands moved without pause, and another fragment flew precisely to the left.
"I can see the details of every single frame in thirty frames per second."
Thirty seconds.
Forty seconds.
One minute.
The cat-eared girl stopped, dusted off her hands (which weren't actually dust), and wagged her tail gently: "All done."
Everyone looked at the table—
Two hundred puzzle pieces are now perfectly fitted into the photo frame, forming a complete group photo.
In the picture, Lin Feng and Leng Meng sit side by side, their eyes crinkling with smiles.
Qin Yue opened her mouth, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes, but she still slowly spoke, announcing in a deep voice: "Challenge... complete."
The cat-eared girl leaned closer triumphantly, placing one hand on Lin Feng's shoulder, her amber eyes sparkling:
"Hey, I've helped you so much, shouldn't I get a reward?"
Lin Feng nodded: "A reward is a must. What do you want?"
The cat-eared girl's gaze fell on the parrot on Su Wan's shoulder: "I don't ask for much—just give me that parrot as a reward."
Upon hearing this, the "talkative" person was taken aback at first, and then—
"Gah!!!"
Its eyes rolled back, and it fell straight off Su Wan's shoulder, flapped its wings a couple of times, and lay motionless on the ground.
Playing dead.
The cat-eared girl's eyes lit up even more: "Look how cute it is, and it can even play dead! I like it even more!"
Lin Feng's lips twitched.
"No, the parrot won't do; it's part of my family."
He took out an exquisite iron box from his spatial storage, which was tied with a dark brown ribbon.
The cat-eared girl's nose twitched, and her ears instantly perked up.
"This is……"
Lin Feng handed her the box: "These are handmade chocolates; they should taste better than the ones you've had before."
The cat-eared girl took the box, opened it a crack, peeked inside, and then—
"Meow!!!"
Her amber eyes lit up instantly, and she hugged the chocolate box tightly, snuggling against Lin Feng.
Thanks!
Lin Feng was a little overwhelmed by her rubbing against him and took half a step back: "If you like it, that's fine. You should go back now."
Ripples spread through the air, and the cat-eared girl's figure gradually became transparent, until only a silver-gray afterimage remained, along with a soft—
Bye-bye~
The sound of the bells faded into the air.
Several male guests looked on with a sense of loss, one of them muttering, "She's gone...she's really gone..."
"I haven't seen enough yet..."
"That tail...that ear...my God..."
Qin Yue glared at them: "Stop drooling!"
Just then, a figure walked in from outside the door.
Leng Meng smiled faintly, her gaze fixed on Lin Feng.
Lin Feng went up to her and took her hand.
"That catgirl is quite cute," Leng Meng said casually.
Lin Feng felt a chill run down his spine.
"She...she's just a feline!"
"Oh?" Leng Meng raised an eyebrow. "Then she rubbed against you."
"That's...that's a cat's habit! Cats like to rub against people!"
Leng Meng reached out and straightened Lin Feng's slightly crooked collar:
"Alright, I'll deal with you properly tonight!"
