Strange Life of a Cat

Chapter 270 - 270 263 The Wealthy Cat

?Chapter 270: Chapter 263: The Wealthy Cat Chapter 270: Chapter 263: The Wealthy Cat Since there was no need to pay the bill, no worry about the phone getting cut off, and one could do things without exposing oneself or fear of being tracked, and still find amusement, what a great deal it was. No wonder private detectives were becoming so numerous; there was a high market demand, and making money seemed easy, especially with businesses like catching mistresses and gathering evidence seemingly having a lot of financial potential.

However, Zheng Tan had no intention of getting involved in that sort of work. Helping Teacher Xiao Bai was a favor due to her kindness to Zhuo Xiaomao, and at the same time, Zheng Tan wanted to deal with Zhang Dong, nothing more. Once this matter was over, Zheng Tan would have no interest in doing this kind of work for anyone else.

Having resolved the annoying issue of topping up the phone, Zheng Tan’s mood was exceptionally good, and even the speed of his paws playing mobile games was much faster that day. There were fewer mistakes than before, and he achieved a high score in one go.

Even though he no longer needed to pay for his phone bill, Zheng Tan was still proactive in earning and spending cash. Each time Xiao Guo took him to shoot promotional videos and advertisements, Zheng Tan did not hesitate to take overtime pay from Xiao Guo. He used to be impatient with the errors made by the other ‘cat bosses’ at the pet shop, but now he was hoping that those cats would be uncooperative so he could earn some extra cash.

Zheng Tan planned to save this cash instead of using it to pay for his phone. He was preparing to set it aside for emergencies. Sometimes, even if there was a large balance on the card, it was useless without cash in hand.

That day, because it was the weekend, both children were at home. Jiao Ma was dragged out shopping by a few colleagues, and Mr. Jiao was not around either.

Mr. Jiao didn’t have absolute days off. After lunch, he had run back to the courtyard again. Since being promoted to Professor, Mr. Jiao had applied for another good project. Now he had several projects on his hands. With many topics to work on, he was very busy. Now, several senior students who wanted to enter his research were also participating. There were also a few juniors and sophomores. Some wanted to familiarize themselves with the laboratory since the gap between undergraduates and postgraduates was significant, and the experiments they could conduct independently were limited. They needed to prepare early if they wanted to develop in this direction, while others were attracted by Professor Jiao’s current reputation and the projects he had at hand. After all, following a teacher with projects and topics that produce results did not only mean earning “wages” during the period, but it was also of great help for their future. They hoped to publish an SCI paper before graduating to boost their standing, which would help in competing for scholarships and aid in job hunting after graduation.

Mr. Jiao’s reputation in the Institute had indeed increased a lot, especially when someone from higher up was looking out for him. It couldn’t be helped; those big shots had taken Professor Jiao’s red genetically modified nest mice, and it would be unreasonable not to give him some support.

When Zheng Tan occasionally headed to the Life Science Institute, he had heard students discussing the situation of the teachers in the Institute a few times. Once, Zheng Tan even overheard a discussion about which of the young professors (referred to as ‘green peppers’) would most likely take over Dean Xie’s position. Among them, Mr. Jiao’s name was mentioned the most.
