The mascot of the wishing shop is a cat.

Chapter 496 Discussion

After finishing his meal, as usual, Meros's body gradually shrank, eventually transforming into an elegant little black cat.

He gently stretched his body, then curled up into a ball and lay quietly on the chair.

Seeing this, Lin Xiyue smiled and walked over, carefully picking up Moros.

Moros enjoyed being held by Lin Xiyue. His eyes were half-closed, and he would occasionally make soft snoring sounds, as if to tell Lin Xiyue that he was comfortable.

Recently, Meros has been expending a great deal of energy to nurture that soul.

In addition, he is restricted by the rules of Maple Star, which often causes him to revert to cat form in the afternoon.

Nevertheless, Meros showed no signs of discomfort; on the contrary, he seemed to enjoy the state.

Perhaps because of the series of events that had happened before, Meros's possessiveness towards Lin Xiyue grew stronger and stronger.

He always liked to cling tightly to Lin Xiyue, whether in her arms or beside her, which made him feel that his appetite was suppressed.

"Let's go to that small private room."

Lin Xiyue, holding Molos, turned to look at He Hailuo beside her and said with a smile.

He Hailuo nodded and followed Lin Xiyue toward the semi-enclosed private room.

These small private rooms are actually individual cubicles separated from the main hall by beautiful partitions.

Each small booth can accommodate about four to five people, which is convenient for guests who come to learn how to make the product to communicate with their friends, while ensuring that they are not disturbed by other guests.

"Please sit down, let's talk."

Lin Xiyue smiled and spoke softly, while gesturing for He Hailuo to sit on the sofa opposite her.

After He Hailuo slowly sat down, Lin Xiyue also sat down opposite her.

She gently stroked Meros's silky soft fur, feeling the comfort and relaxation it brought her.

However, perhaps because Lin Xiyue's attitude was too serious and formal, He Hailuo appeared somewhat reserved and nervous as soon as he sat down.

Her back was ramrod straight, her hands resting on her knees, trembling slightly, as if she didn't know how to proceed with the conversation.

"Okay, okay."

Upon hearing Lin Xiyue's voice, He Hailuo snapped back to reality as if struck by lightning.

Like a primary school student being called on by the teacher to answer a question in class, she stood up reflexively and answered in an unusually loud voice.

This sudden action not only surprised Lin Xiyue, but also startled Molos, who was pretending to sleep in her arms. He looked up and curiously stared at He Hailuo.

"Hehe, it's okay, don't be nervous, it's nothing serious."

Seeing this, Lin Xiyue couldn't help but laugh out loud and quickly waved her hand, gesturing for He Hailuo to sit down.

Her laughter was like a spring breeze, warm and friendly, which made Heheluo's tense nerves relax a little.

"Oh, okay, okay."

Hehelu responded softly, then sat down in the chair somewhat awkwardly.

Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her hands unconsciously gripped the hem of her clothes, as if she hadn't fully recovered from her nervousness.

"Would you like some fruit first? Anqing wanted to give you this, but we've already started eating, so we'll leave it here for now. The fruit is very fresh!"

Lin Xiyue noticed He Hailuo's discomfort, so she smiled and said.

Upon hearing this, Heheluo smiled with relief and nodded.

"Well, it's delicious."

She casually picked up a grape from the fruit plate, put it in her mouth, and chewed it gently.

The sweet and sour taste spread in her mouth, which made her feel a little more relaxed.

"Are you relaxed a bit? Well, let me explain it to you first. Just listen, and if you have any questions or anything you don't understand, feel free to interrupt me and ask."

Seeing that He Hailuo's condition had improved, Lin Xiyue continued.

Her tone was soft and gentle, making people feel very friendly.

"You came here to find out what happened next, right? I've already given the diary you gave me to Lingyan's captain, Lingye. You should know him, right? He's a very responsible person, so I think he's already started investigating this matter."

Lin Xiyue looked at He Hailuo and spoke at a measured pace.

Hehelu listened quietly, a hint of nervousness on his face.

"Also, I remember you were bewitched by Fei Bo before, right? But you don't have to worry now, because he has been caught, and I heard that he is being held in a special place. That place is very secure, and he has absolutely no chance of escaping."

Seeing this, Lin Xiyue continued.

Lin Xiyue spoke casually, as if she were talking about something perfectly ordinary.

However, Hero's mood did not improve much as a result.

"Oh, that's great!"

Hearing Lin Xiyue's words, she breathed a sigh of relief and then said softly.

"Okay, I've told you most of it, so you can rest assured. As for the rest..."

Lin Xiyue seemed to sense He Hailuo's unease, and she continued.

At this point, Lin Xiyue seemed to suddenly remember something and abruptly stopped speaking.

"Amo, could you go and get those two dolls for me?"

She looked down at Meros, who was lying on top of her, then gently patted his back and said softly.

Molos opened his eyes groggily after Lin Xiyue patted him. He looked at Lin Xiyue, then at He Hailuo, seemingly not fully awake yet.

"Meow~"

With a soft meow, Meros slowly raised his head.

His movements were graceful and natural, like those of a real cat. He arched his back, forming a perfect curve, and then slowly stretched out his limbs, fully enjoying the comfort of the stretch.

What's even more interesting is that his paws are spread out like flowers, making him look incredibly cute.

After completing this series of movements, Melos lightly jumped off Lin Xiyue's knees, his movements as natural as flowing water.

His steps were light yet steady, as if he knew his surroundings perfectly.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared through the doorway, leaving only a fading "meow—"

Not long after, that familiar "meow" sound rang out again.

Melos returned to Lin Xiyue's side with light steps.

Of course, Meros brought the two dolls with him.

However, this was completely unexpected by Heheluo.

She was secretly wondering how Meros would bring the doll over.

Was it curled up on his tail, or bitten in his mouth? However, the truth surprised him greatly.
