After planning till midnight, both cat and human slept to their heart's content as if they have already saved the world.
The next day, in the afternoon, outside Su Qiqi's bedroom. One of the house servants came to knock on her door as it was getting late.
Su Qiqi woke up hearing the knocking, she opened the door, and what came into her view was a woman standing in front of her in a maid's black and white outfit. She bowed ninety degrees and greeted her in a loud voice,
"Good afternoon Young miss."
Su Qiqi looked at her with a bewildered expression.
"Is this some sort of cosplay?"
The maid looked at her in confusion not understanding what she meant.
Su Qiqi and the maid looked at each other for a whole minute in silence before realization started kicking in Su Qiqi's little brain. She closed the door with a bang and pulled on her hair as she shouted,
"AHH! It was not a dream!!"
"Why are you shouting early in the morning stupid human!"
"The talking cat is also here!"
The cat opened one eye to look at the human who finally decided to check in with reality.
'Heh! This cat thought this stupid human was quite accepting of the situation, it looks like she took all this as a dream.'
He shut his eye back to continue sleeping, without the least bit of care.
Su Qiqi soon realized the gravity of the situation, she ran to the sleeping cat and shook him awake.
"Hey talking cat, I don't think I can do this. Please send me back."
The cat opened his eyes and gave her the look that said give up.
"That's not going to happen. You better prepare yourself for what's going to come."
"But-"
"No buts, this cat will send you back as soon as you have served your purpose."
"And when will that be?"
"Didn't we discuss it yesterday night, you just have to follow through with the plan."
Although the plan they discussed last night sounded easy she kept having a feeling that there was something wrong about it. But she didn't delve into it too much. She picked up the cat and said,
"Fine! Didn't you say we need to do preparations? Let's go then, the earlier we are done with it, the better."
"Impudent human, keep this cat down this instant!"
Su Qiqi kept the cat down and apologized,
"Sorry-sorry I was a little anxious."
"At least get dressed properly or are you planning on going out in your nightdress."
"I forgot!"
She looked around the room. There were three doors in the room aside from the huge glass door to the balcony. She opened the first door it was the study room. Then she opened the second door, It was the door to the walk-in closet. It was a huge walk-in closet with many shelves in it.
"Woah! Can she even wear these many clothes in one lifetime?"
She stepped inside the closet and looked at varieties of clothes, footwear and accessories. These were all the things that Su Qiqi has never even dreamed of. she felt a pang of jealousy in her heart which was immediately replaced by ambitious thoughts,
'Some day I will be a top author, then I will also have a huge closet!'
After exploring the closet, she chose a thigh-length black woolen dress and paired it with stockings and boots.
"This is the least goddy dress I could find. I don't understand rich people's fashion, why do they have to dress like they are attending red carpet events."
Walking out of the closet she went into the next door. When she entered inside she was shocked to see that the bathroom's size was about the same as her whole apartment. She looked all around the bathroom with curiosity-filled eyes.
"What's the need to have such a huge bathroom? Why is there a television inside the bathroom? Is this a bathtub or a swimming pool?"
It took her a while to understand how the bathtub functioned. She filled the bathtub with hot water and took a long bath.
"It's been so long since I had bathed in hot water."
After taking a bath, she got dressed and walked out of the bathroom.
"Let's go, I am-"
The rest of the words got stuck in her throat because right in front of her was the dressing table. What made her stunned was not the products kept on the dressing table but what she was looking at in the mirror.
"She.. she looks exactly like me!... Well not exactly…"
The person in the mirror had a ruddy complexion and long waist-length hair. She also looked plumper than Su Qiqi but their face looked the same.
She swirled in front of the mirror, twirled her long silky hair. She pinched her smooth and soft cheeks and at last, she looked down at her chest area. She cupped her ample bosom in astonishment as she thought compared to her flat self, this person had the fat in the right areas.
"What's taking you so long?"
She quickly let go and coughed to hide her embarrassment.
"Let's go."
Su Qiqi left her room, the maid was still standing there, Su Qiqi gave her a smile and went ahead, the maid also followed behind her wordlessly. But after taking a whole round of the corridor she realized she was back in front of her room.
"Is this a house or a labyrinth?"
"Young miss, Are you looking for something?"
Su Qiqi tried to act as normal as possible, as she asked her:
"I have been feeling a little forgetful, can you show me the way down?"
"Yes, Young miss, this way."
Although the maid had a smile on her face as she said this, inwardly she was worried about her young miss's mental health.
They soon reached the stairs but looking at the spiral staircase Su Qiqi started feeling dizzy. She had grown to have a fear of stairs, walking 6 floors down from her apartment daily.
The maid worriedly held her hand and asked,
"Young miss, are you alright?"
Su Qiqi weakly nodded her head, looking at her pale face the maid suggested,
"Why don't we take the elevator instead?"
Hearing the word elevator, Su Qiqi gained her spirit back.
"We have an elevator?!"
The maid gave her a weird look before asking her to follow behind.
After entering the elevator she couldn't stop herself from taking a nice feel of the elevator by touching it here and there. She wanted to engrave this memory forever as she thought,
'I should use this elevator daily, who knew when I will be able to see an elevator again when I get back home.'
The cat who was looking at her vague behavior, couldn't keep looking at her. He closed his eyes and thought,
'This stupid human doesn't feel embarrassed but this cat feels embarrassed for her.'
When the elevator opened Su Qiqi was once again stunned by the huge living room in front of her.
She didn't get to take a good look at her surroundings as a man in a suit walked up and stood in front of her. His back was ramrod straight, with a touch of seriousness on his face. On the left side of his suit jacket was a badge pinned that read "Butler Li". He gave her a slight bow as he greeted her.
"Good afternoon young miss."
"G-good afternoon."
Butler Li straightened his back and looked at Su Qiqi for a long time wordlessly with doubtful eyes.
Although Su Qiqi looked calm on the outside, she was panicking inside.
'Oh no! Did he find anything out?'
