Chapter 559: Allergic Reactions

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Snowy was deeply sympathetic toward Vivi, who could not touch cats because of allergies. Vivi's situation was probably like a fat girl who had made up her mind to lose weight but was struggling in front of a cup of delicious Sundae.

"What should I do?" Snowy scratched her head. "Should I bring Snowball to another room?"

"No, no need. I'll just wear a mask..." Vivi rubbed her nose and pulled out an anti-smog mask from her pocket. "I will be fine if I repress my urge to touch it..."

No matter how casual Snowy was, she could not bear to see her guest wear a mask at her home because of her cat. She said decisively, "Let me put my cat away!"

"Sorry to trouble you..." Since Snowy insisted, Vivi hid in the corner of the bedroom to clear the way. Vivi gazed at Snowball in Snowy's arms with an eager expression.

"It doesn't matter. You are allergic to cats. This is the only solution." Snowy took Snowball out of the bedroom and saw that her mother had left with Aunt Zhou. Her father was still reading newspapers on the sofa.

Upon hearing the sounds, Jiang Tianda looked up at her and said, "Want to go out again? No way!"

"I'm not going out!" Snowy twitched her nose and made a grimace.

She took Snowball to the guest room, put it on the bed, stroked it on the back and said, "Snowball, that girl is allergic to you, so you need to stay here for a while. I will hold you back in my room after she's gone."

Snowball meowed and didn't understand what had happened. Snowy waved at it, closed the door to the guest room and returned to her bedroom.

"Vivi, are you feeling better? Do you want me to get some medicine for you, the medicine for rhinitis?" she asked with concern.

Standing in front of Snowy's desk, Vivi was rubbing her nose while enviously looking at a photo of Snowy and Snowball. She smiled bitterly. "I'm sorry. I'm okay. I will be well a while later as long as there is no cat present..."

"Vivi, when did you find yourself allergic to cats?" said Snowy, who sat back in her chair.

Vivi recalled, "A few years ago. Someone sent me a cat and I liked it very much. Just like you hold Snowball, I had been holding my cat in my arms all day long. As a result, I had serious allergic reactions. I didn't want to believe I was allergic to cats at first. After screening the allergens at the hospital, it was determined that I was allergic to cats. I was dead inside when I heard about this…"

"How serious could your allergic reactions be? Were you exaggerating?" Snowy was stunned.

"That is the case. I was not exaggerating," Vivi said with certainty. "When I started sneezing, I thought I had caught a cold. I ate all kinds of cold medicines, but they didn't work. I insisted on staying with my cat for a few days and the cat became familiar with me. And then I was reluctant to leave it…"

"What happened to that cat?" Snowy cared about the fate of the cat.

Vivi said with regret, "I had to give it away."

"Alas!" Snowy sighed sorrowfully.

Silence prevailed in the room. Vivi and Snowy had different personalities and hobbies. Snowy was not familiar with the entertainment industry or the celebrities, while Vivi was an amateur at games. Their conversations were awkward and uncomfortable.

"By the way, in addition to playing games, what do you like to do in your free time?" Vivi changed the subject.

"Live broadcast, outdoor live broadcast." Snowy did not hide this hobby. She did not think hosting live broadcast was shameful.

"Outdoor live broadcast...is it interesting? Do you need to travel abroad to host the live broadcast?" Vivi had some interest in this topic. But she had confused the concept of live broadcast with traveling.

"Err, no, I basically host live broadcast locally. I would look for some delicious food and fun places in Binhai City and then broadcast them to netizens," Snowy simply explained.

"Is there any delicious food or fun places in Binhai City? How do I not know that?" Vivi asked in confusion.

"Yeah!" Snowy said with certainty. "But you must go and discover yourself."

Since they had nothing better to do, and to prove her own words, Snowy turned on her laptop, found the video footage of her previous live broadcast programs, and pointed out some interesting places in Binhai City to Vivi.

"Wow, you went to a pet shop to host live broadcast before?" Vivi was surprised to learn that Snowy had hosted live broadcast in a pet shop. For Vivi, a girl allergic to cats, a pet shop was basically a forbidden land.

"Yeah, I've been there more than once."

Snowy happily opened the videos of the pet shop and showed Vivi.

"Wow! Really? The kittens in this shop can actually dance?" staring at the screen, Vivi asked incredulously. She saw that in the video, many kittens were dancing neatly in a queue. If it weren't for the sounds and figure of Snowy in the video, Vivi would really think they were the special effects in a movie.

"Of course they are real. Snowball can dance, too. Do you want to watch it dance?" Snowy asked.

Vivi hesitated for a while, and finally refused very painfully. "No need to...I'm sorry, Snowy. If I see a kitten dance in front of me, I definitely would want to hold it up regardless of my allergies…"

At the sight of Vivi's struggle, Snowy stuck out her tongue and was glad that she was not allergic to cats.

"Vivi, are you allergic to dogs?" Snowy changed the subject.

"Dogs? Well… I don't seem to be allergic to dogs, but I don't feel much about dogs..." Vivi said helplessly, "I still prefer cats..."

This was tough.

Snowy was very sympathetic for Vivi, who liked cats so much but was allergic to them.

When this topic was over, the room became silent again.

Snowy was very anxious. She peeked at the watch. Only less than half an hour had passed. She didn't know when her mother and Aunt Zhou would be back from the hair salon. Maybe they would have lunch outside and visit other places in the afternoon. Was she going to chat with Vivi awkwardly for the whole day?

"Vivi, do you want to go out and play?" Snowy asked tentatively.

"Going out ... there is fog outside..." Vivi looked out of the room worriedly.

"It does not matter. We just need to put on masks." Snowy actively persuaded Vivi.

"Where are we going? My mother won't let me go to those dubious places." Vivi said hesitantly.

Snowy rolled her eyes and suggested, "How about going to the pet shop? You want to go there too, don't you?"

"No! No! Absolutely not!" Vivi waved her hands and refused in horror.

Snowy held Vivi's hands, "Listen to me. Vivi, since you like cats so much, it's bad for you if you repress your desire for too long. Let's go watch the cats in the pet shop. Rest assured, I will prevent you from stroking the cats. We will wear masks and look at the cats without touching them. What do you think?"

Snowy was just looking for some excuses to go out to play. If Vivi agreed to her suggestion, Snowy would have confidence to ask for her father's permission.

"Well..." Vivi thought a little bit and nodded, "Okay then."

Snowy found that she really had underestimated the extent to which Vivi liked cats.
