Nobody had seen the cat.
Where did this cat come from?
Xiang Wan felt thrilled at the sight of the cat. She walked slowly towards it in fear of scaring it away.
The cat was on high alert as its fur was standing up as it eyed Xiang Wan defensively.
"Meow!"
"Meow, meow…" Xiang Wan mimicked the cat's meowing.
In order to bond with the cat, Xiang Wan thought she needed to start by sounding like one.
This might seem childish, but it was a very effective method most of the time.
She managed to attract the cat's attention successfully.
The cat now arched its back warily, but it didn't run away.
It looked like this might work!
"Don't be afraid! Meow… don't be afraid…"
Xiang Wan squat down as she cautiously reached out her hand to stroke the black cat's fur.
"Meow—" The black cat felt alarmed at her action. It turned around and leaped away.
