Zhang Zian looked at the notification on the phone screen incredulously.
How is this possible?
That gold-digging cat?
I didn't buy it a diamond ring today. Why did its favorability increase?
Did it … did it pick up my bank card?
Let's put this question aside and look at Fina's origin.

[Unlocked History]:
The world's domestic cats were born in Egypt!
At the latest 4,000 years ago, on the fertile alluvial plains on both sides of the Nile River, advances in farming technology greatly increased food production. For the first time, humans began to store surplus food on a large scale, followed by a growing rat infestation. In order to deal with the rat infestation, ancient Egyptians tried to domesticate African desert wildcats into domestic cats. This was the beginning of the alliance between humans and cats, and the origin of all domestic cats in the world today.
Cats had a sacred and noble status in the ancient Egyptian Kingdom.
2900 years ago, the Cat Goddess Bastet became the official god of Egypt, and the status of cats reached unprecedented heights.
Ancient Egyptians banned cats from being taken out of the country, but 2500 years ago, domestic cats still arrived in Greece and gradually spread from there.
2000 years ago, the expansion of the Roman Empire brought domestic cats to all parts of Europe, and in the Western Han Dynasty, they came to China and India through Mesopotamia. Unfortunately, China had already set the twelve zodiac signs two weeks ago, and domestic cats were absent because they were late.
In the 15th century, in order to resist the rat infestation on the ocean ships, Columbus brought domestic cats to America.
In the 17th century, domestic cats appeared in Australia.
In the 19th century, explorers' ships carried cats to the North and South Poles.
At this point, domestic cats completed their global occupation.
However, no matter how the genes of domestic cats spread, their roots and most glorious period were always in Egypt.
In ancient Egypt, cats would be mummified and buried after death, and the owner's family would shave their eyebrows to show mourning. People who hurt cats would be sentenced to death.
It could be said that the ancient Egyptian Kingdom was the world's first real cat slave country, unprecedented.
The Fina Paris family had been respected for generations as the guardians of the Ptolemaic Dynasty of Ancient Egypt and the Great Priest of the Bubastis Bastian Shrine. Among them, Fina Paris XIII, who was the favorite of Cleopatra VII, was the most respected. During the annual Bastet Festival, 700,000 adult men and women would flock to the holy land of Bubastis to offer their most precious gifts and pray sincerely to the Bastet Divine Palace.
With the support of a huge amount of faith, Fina Paris XIII became an elf in the world.
Half Epic, half Legendary, just a step away from Godhood!
Without a doubt, Fina Paris XIII was the cat closest to the Cat Goddess. She was the ancestor of all cats, the queen of cats.
[Unlocked True Name]: The Golden Cat of Cleopatra VII!
…
Zhang Zian almost joined the UC Shock Department!
The name Cleopatra VII was unfamiliar, but the synonym "Cleopatra" was well known to everyone!
No wonder this guy was always so domineering and cool. He didn't even put mortals in his eyes …
Everything made sense.
Nile tilapia, Persian dates …
Fina called the yuan pink paperaa, but Zhang Zian didn't understand. It said pa-per-aa, which was the ancient Egyptian papyrus, meaning "the property of the pharaohs." It was also the origin of the English word "paper."
Fina claimed that it was rich, and maybe it wasn't bragging. At that time, Cleopatra almost turned the Roman Empire into a province of Egypt. She lived up to the famous saying — men conquer the world, women conquer men, and cats conquer women.
Even now, purebred Egyptian cats were extremely rare. Purebred Egyptian cats basically didn't exist in China. Zhang Zian had never seen an Egyptian cat, not to mention that Fina was an original Egyptian cat from 2000 years ago, so he wasn't sure of its breed. It wasn't until the guy in the trench coat offered to buy Fina for 200,000 yuan that he understood. He didn't expect it to be Cleopatra's favorite cat.
"Master?"
"Mr. Store Manager?"
Seeing that Zhang Zian didn't say anything, everyone asked.
Lea rubbed her eyes and said, "Well said, Mr. Store Manager. You didn't choose the cat, but you chose each other."
Jiang Qianxue hugged her Persian cat tightly and buried her face in its fur. He could still hear her sobbing.
Xiao Yan was sobbing. She sniffed and said, "I picked this cat up from the roadside a year ago. It was raining heavily that day, and it was put in a cardboard box. It was completely soaked, and it just stared at the passersby. It didn't run or bark. Whenever someone came near, it would wave its paws to scare them away … "
Zhang Zian sighed, "It must be waiting for its owner to pick it up."
"I don't know why, maybe it's what you call fate. I took one look at it and felt that I couldn't just leave it alone." She gently stroked the Dragon-Li cat. "So I brought it home with the box and named it 'Xiao Yu.' When it first arrived home, it was very fierce. It made a mess of the house, even the food bowl and the water bowl were knocked over … Even now, a year later, it is still not very close to me. When I take a bath, it is even more troublesome, scratching and scratching everywhere … "
Zhang Zian analyzed, "Maybe the experience of being abandoned on a rainy day left too painful a memory for it. Every time its body was soaked, it would think that you were going to abandon it too, so it fought very hard. Because it was abandoned once, it didn't want to be abandoned a second time. "
"Then … can it still shower normally?" Xiao Yan raised her head and asked with red eyes.
Zhang Zian wasn't sure. Dragon-Li cats were rebellious, and this one was traumatized. He looked at Fina and asked for its opinion.
It was unknown when Fei Na had laid down again. Her eyes were closed, and she only nodded her head slightly before meowing twice.
Xiao Yan suddenly felt that the muscles on the back of the Dragon-Li cat relaxed, and it softly leaned against her feet. It raised its head, and its eyes were no longer uneasy and alert, but full of trust and peace.
"You can take it to shower. You should know all the steps, right?" Zhang Zian asked.
"Yes, but …"
"Don't worry," he said.
Xiao Yan plucked up her courage, picked up the Dragon-Li cat, and walked into the bathroom. It didn't resist at all. Usually, when it saw the sink, it would be angry.
The shower process was very smooth. Compared to before, it was like a different cat. Xiao Yan couldn't believe her eyes. What shocked her even more was that it could actually meow in a low voice, and it even took the initiative to rub its head against her arm. This had never happened before. In the past, it could only make threatening growls.
While everyone's eyes were attracted by the Dragon-Li cat, Zhang Zian quietly walked to Fina and whispered, "What did you say to it?"
Fina said lightly, "I just told it that it doesn't need to worry anymore. That person will not abandon you. You can trust her and rely on her."
Awesome, my golden cat.
