The bullet screen fell silent for a moment, then erupted with a flurry of question marks.
The streamer, a large orange cat, noticed Lu Mingming's comment and giggled, her voice laced with amusement. "Don't tease me, I'm not a new streamer, I won't be fooled."
Lu Mingming, worried about the kitten's health, urged again:
【Mingming Can't Wake Up: I'm serious, kittens need more nutrients. Eating only vegetables long-term will lead to malnutrition.】
The large orange cat streamer's expression shifted. "Please stop talking nonsense. My kitten weighs four pounds at six months old!"
The bullet screen collectively expressed envy:
【Eating a Big Bowl of Spicy Strips: Your kitten is too lucky. Other kittens I've seen only weigh a little over three pounds.】
【The Highest Good is Like Water: Followed. My kitten just won't gain weight, sigh.】
Four pounds?!
Lu Mingming's brows furrowed into a deep '川' shape.
A normal six-month-old cat should weigh between five and seven pounds! She couldn't imagine how much hardship the little kitten had endured!
【Mingming Can't Wake Up: You can switch to raw chicken or boneless fish soon, and supplement with goat milk for nourishment.】
The large orange cat streamer felt Lu Mingming was deliberately picking a fight. She immediately retorted indignantly, "I used to be a chef at a four-star restaurant and learned new dishes from the great 'Nine-tailed Fox.' What do you think you are?"
【Eating a Big Bowl of Spicy Strips: @Mingming Can't Wake Up, what are you talking about? Are you really a beastkin?】
Lu Mingming pursed her lips and replied honestly.
【Mingming Can't Wake Up: ...No.】
Like a stone dropped into a thousand ripples, over a dozen comments flashed across the screen.
【Eating a Big Bowl of Spicy Strips: Good heavens, I can already smell the stink of a pure-blood human, gag—】
【The Highest Good is Like Water: Pity the streamer, being questioned about her skills by a pure-blood human.】
【Love at a Corner: I hope I don't catch the plague after the stream.】
【Eating a Big Bowl of Spicy Strips: Get lost, don't embarrass yourself. Pure-blood humans are indeed disgusting. Liars' tongues rot.】
The barrage of insults left Lu Mingming dazed and her thoughts in disarray.
What she didn't know was that the beastkin of today had long lost their ancestral memories. Although they retained the genes of humans and beasts, they were imitating and adopting the lifestyle of pure-blood humans for their societal existence, which was, in fact, inherently unsuitable for them.
The little white cat had been quietly observing everything. Seeing Lu Mingming so distraught from the insults, its heart softened. It raised its tiny paws, intending to use its usual trick to help her leave the stream.
However, as soon as it extended its small furry paw, Lu Mingming firmly grasped it. She glanced up at the smart timetable on the wall—it was five in the afternoon.
Then, she took a deep breath, looked at the little white cat's confused, chubby face, and seemed to make an important decision.
【Mingming Can't Wake Up: If you don't believe me, I can immediately live-stream the preparation of correct cat food to prove I'm right.】
The large orange cat streamer sneered at this. "Alright, then let's all wait and watch the show. Don't be a deserter."
Lu Mingming exited the stream, browsed the operation manual on the StarNet, and clicked to create a room.
The next instant, Lu Mingming appeared on camera, wearing a loose beige sweater, in a clean and tidy kitchen, exuding warmth.
Lu Mingming took a photo of the little white cat's profile and its small paws to use as the cover image.
As for the stream's name, Lu Mingming casually chose "
Everything was ready.
Lu Mingming clenched her fist to calm her emotions and pressed the "Live" button.
After the stream started, Lu Mingming remained silent and began preparing today's cat food.
As for the little white cat, it lay on the soft sofa, bored, and fell asleep.
Lu Mingming took out the frozen chicken breast she bought from the supermarket to thaw, and washed the pumpkin, preparing to peel it.
Both chicken breast and pumpkin are low-allergen foods for felines, very suitable for a kitten like the little white cat whose information is completely unknown. Even if it had a sensitive stomach due to a long period of being stray, it would be able to accept them easily.
Lu Mingming muted the stream's notification sounds, fearing it might disturb the little white cat's sleep, and thus didn't notice the small numbers continuously growing in the top left corner.
At this moment, the number displayed in the top left corner was: 128, indicating that 128 people were watching the stream live.
Just then, a comment slowly floated across the screen, which Lu Mingming immediately noticed:
【Jasmine: The streamer is so pretty!! She's a beautiful sister!!】
Since she couldn't see the viewers throughout the stream, Lu Mingming was surprisingly not nervous. She blinked at the camera, her voice like a gentle spring trickle:
"Hello everyone, I'm Mingming Can't Wake Up, you can call me Mingming. This is my first live stream. Please continue to watch the cat food I'm making today."
With someone breaking the ice, the bullet screen immediately became lively.
【The Highest Good is Like Water: Came from next door.】
【Happy Orange Cat: Heh, let's see what tricks you can pull off.】
【Jasmine: What's going on here??】
【Sheep Doesn't Like Eating Grass: Interesting, a new streamer is being targeted.】
Lu Mingming kept her head down, diligently peeling the pumpkin, and after a short while, looked up to find the bullet screen had become quite quarrelsome.
Lu Mingming tucked a strand of hair from her ear, leaned closer to read the chat logs, and guessed the situation. She then explained, "There was a small disagreement with the streamer next door. Don't mind it; you'll know the result when I'm done."
After briefly clarifying the misunderstanding, Lu Mingming placed the sliced pumpkin and chicken breast into two separate pots, added water, and let them simmer. The next step was to wait until they were about one-third cooked.
Lu Mingming took the opportunity to glance at the little white cat. Its long tail lazily draped over the armrest of the sofa, hanging down in a straight line, and she could even hear faint snores. It was so cute she wanted to pet it a few more times.
At this moment, Lu Mingming also had some free time to look at the bullet screen.
【The Highest Good is Like Water: What are you making? I've never seen this before.】
Lu Mingming replied amicably, "The main ingredients are chicken breast and pumpkin. Friends with felines at home can try this. My baby is only a little over three months old, so I'll just need to chop the chicken breast a bit finer later."
【Sheep Doesn't Like Eating Grass: This is the first time I've heard of such a method. Are you sure it's okay, streamer?】
【Eating a Big Bowl of Spicy Strips: Doubtful. I don't know what kind of innovative dish this is. I wonder if it will poison the animals.】
Lu Mingming said seriously, "Please rest assured, everyone. I've made this many times before, and the little ones at home love to eat it."
As pure-blood humans gradually moved towards extinction, the use of most ingredients and recipes was lost, leading beastkin to deliberately neglect their inherent beast genes. The habits of wild beasts to hunt and eat raw meat, passed down for hundreds or thousands of years, were forcefully altered, making the lives of beastkin in the current interstellar era devoid of joy.
The current culinary standards in the interstellar era were probably equivalent to the primitive society. A group of beastkin didn't know how to process meat, so most opted for vegetables and fruits that didn't require additional preparation.
For instance, when Lu Mingming cared for kittens before, she always fed them entirely raw meat. Currently, it was only because she was concerned about the little white cat's health that she cooked the ingredients slightly.
As soon as the pots came to a boil, Lu Mingming used a large spoon to scoop out the pumpkin and chicken breast to cool.
The pumpkin had become soft and mushy, easily breaking into two pieces with a spoon. A faint sweet aroma filled the air.
Lu Mingming put on heat-resistant gloves and cut the chicken breast into fine shreds. The chicken breast was not fully cooked, with tender raw meat mixed inside.
"Remember to drizzle the broth from the pot over the cat food. If you have the means, you can also prepare some plain yogurt to aid digestion for your little ones."
Lu Mingming said, holding the spoon, and carefully poured the broth over the chicken breast. The fragrant meaty aroma spread throughout the hall. The little white cat, roused from its sleep, slowly opened its eyes. What smelled so good?
As the aroma spread infinitely, several comments exploded in the stream.
【Little Rabbit Loved by Everyone: *Sniff sniff* It smells so good, I'm genuinely hungry while working painfully!】
【Jasmine: Streamer, streamer, have you considered becoming a chef? I'm willing to hire you at a high price!!】
【Tomato is Not Eaten by Dogs: From a wolf's perspective, this looks good.】
However, mixed within was an unfriendly remark.
【Eating a Big Bowl of Spicy Strips: Heh, I see all the other animal attendants cook their food, but you're leaving raw meat. Are you intentionally trying to make us sick?】
【Eating a Big Bowl of Spicy Strips: You guys are all idiots, believing a pure-blood human? Is the beastkin living with you being abused? Hurry up and show us the kitten on the cover! Otherwise, I'm calling the police!】
Lu Mingming saw that comment and recognized it as someone causing trouble from the adjacent stream. Her tone immediately soured slightly. "May I ask if you have a problem?"
