When Famous heard "Binhai County," it jumped up as if someone had stepped on its tail.

Wu Ning wasn't able to understand Famous, but its barking shocked her. The resting servants quickly came to her defense with long rods and guns, and nervously asked, "My lady, is everything okay?"

Their master had ordered them to escort the young lady into the mountains to visit the cat and dog. It used to be an unpleasant task, but ever since the cat and dog came to the mountains, wild beasts and thugs started to slowly disappeared. Plus, the young lady was always nice to the servants, so the trips to and from the mountains were relaxing and lighthearted. The servants didn't want the young lady to get hurt, if that happens, the old master would definitely break their legs.

"It's okay." Wu Ning told them to stay put.

She wasn't sure why the dog was suddenly excited, it usually looked bored and disinterested in everything. Wu Ning knew that the dog wouldn't hurt her. With how mystical they were, if they really wanted to hurt her, the servants wouldn't be able to stop them.

"Please, calm down. If I did something wrong, please let me know and I'll fix it." Wu Ning bowed towards Famous.

Old Time Tea was frowning as it looked at Famous, not knowing why it reacted so extremely.

Famous said, "Old Time Tea, did you hear what she said? Where she's going?"

"Binhai County, what about it?" Old Time Tea asked, befuddled.

Famous thought that it had heard wrong, but it wasn't possible for Old Time Tea to have misheard her too, which meant that Wu Ning really was moving to Binhai County.

"Where is Binhai County?" Famous asked quickly, ignoring Old Time Tea's question as it was the least of its concerns.

Old Time Tea pointed northeast, "I don't know the exact location, but it's in that general direction. It's very far away, a myriad of rivers and hills apart."

Famous looked in the direction Old Time Tea pointed, and only saw endless hills and mountains. However, Famous thought it saw a medium-sized city at the end of the horizon.

Famous thought for a moment before asking, "Old Time Tea, if a small town was given a hundred years, could it develop into a city?

Old Time Tea nodded. "It's possible."

"Is it possible for the name to remain the same, but 'county' changed to 'city'?" Famous asked.

"Of course," Old Time Tea answered with certainty. "Why are you asking such questions, Famous?"

Things were starting to connecting in Famous' mind, so it impatiently told Old Time Tea of its discovery, "Old Time Tea, do you remember what I told you before? The city where the Amazing Fate Pet Shop is located is called Binhai City!"

"Is that true?" Old Time Tea was astonished.

"Yes!" Famous said. Although Pi had to change the city's real name to Binhai City in its novel, reality wasn't going to change.

"So Binhai County is going to turn into Binhai City in a hundred years?" Old Time Tea finally understood Famous' initial reaction.

Famous corrected, "Not even a hundred years, probably in a few decades, before the establishment of new China. Then, an unknown pet store will open in the city, which a boy named Zhang Zian will inherit."

"I see." The discovery stirred something in Old Time Tea. It didn't need Famous to go into details to know what would happen, it was like everything was falling into place.

"Could it be a coincidence? Two places with the same name could happen," Old Time Tea said.

Famous thought of the possibility, but felt that it couldn't be coincidental.

Wu Ning patiently waited, watching the cat and dog as if they were having a heated discussion. Although she wasn't able to understand them, she had a suspicion that the cat and dog spoke a similar language.

If she didn't know any better, she'd think that the cat and dog were fighting.

She glanced to the side where the bushes were and saw the black-and-white cat happily bouncing around. It seemed to only care about having fun, not really concerned with what was happening.

There were a lot of things going through Famous' head, there was a lot that it wanted to say.

Famous suddenly thought of a possibility, and hurriedly asked, "Old Time Tea, what were you thinking about earlier?"

"What was I thinking about earlier?" Old Time Tea was thrown off guard by the random question.

"When Wu Ning said that she was going to Binhai County, I saw you deep in thought. What were you thinking about?" Famous stated.

"Oh, I was just thinking of where we would go after Wu Ning left," Old Time Tea answered. "She said that she'll repay us, but we've already benefited a lot, we've gotten spoiled. Without her, we'd have to brave the cold and harshness of the wild, we might even have to live off raw food and drink blood."

"So, you want to follow her to Binhai County?" Famous asked.

Old Time Tea frowned. "The thought crossed my mind, how did you know?"

"Why didn't you mention it?" Famous asked, ignoring its question.

"I wanted to get your and Galaxy's opinion before making a decision." Old Time Tea quickly glanced at Galaxy. "We're companions, we should make our decisions together."

"So you're saying, if it was just you, and you didn't need to consult with us, you'd accompany her to Binhai County?" Famous finally asked the most crucial question.

Old Time Tea nodded. "The world isn't safe, the trip could be dangerous. I'm worried that something will happen to her."

Famous figured it out. In the real history, Old Time Tea must've followed Wu Ning to Binhai County.

"Famous, what do you think?" Old Time Tea asked seriously. "Do we stay here, or do we go to Binhai County?"

"Do you even need to ask?" Famous looked around affectionately. It loved the relaxing in the sun, but it was time to say goodbye. "Although I really want to stay, I know that we have to follow her, or more accurately, follow you."

Famous had been troubled recently. With the wild beasts and thugs long gone, how was Old Time Tea supposed to collect sufficient strength of faith? There was no longer any opponents in its current locations, so it was time to change locations.

Wu Ning was still awaiting a reply, although she was unsure of how they were going to give her one.

Famous tried to explain, but she couldn't understand. Eventually, it just waved its front paws, gesturing for her to hurry on home.

"If that's the case, may we meet again in the future!"

Wu Ning bowed once more as she reluctantly told her servants that it was time to leave. With each step she took, she kept waving, thinking that she'd never see them again, much less repay them for saving her life.

Famous wasn't the slightest bit sad, he happily watched her leave as he thought about how surprised she'll be when they surprised her in a couple of days. There was no need to worry about how they'd locate her, his nose wasn't just a decoration.

"Famous, don't we need to discuss it with Galaxy?" Old Time Tea pointed at Galaxy.

Famous shook its head. "There's no need to discuss with the little fool, as long as it can play hide-and-seek, it'll be fine. Old Time Tea, you don't have to worry about what we think, just do what you want. We need to start packing. Are the potatoes done?"

Old Time Tea noticed how quickly Famous changed the subject.

Famous removed a well-roasted potato from the stove and ate it while it explained some of its theories to Old Time Tea.

Old Time Tea understood a little. Maybe there was a deeper reason for why its elfin version appeared in Binhai City.

Watching Wu Ning and company leave, it started to look forward to the trip. It said in a low voice, "Was everything predestined? A great union ending in separation, there must be a reason!"
