Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

The menu included the prices for beverages such as Latte, Caffè Americano, Caffè Mocha and other commonly seen drinks.

However, the prices were a few time more expensive than usual cafes. The price range was between 100 RMB and 120 RMB.

The woman pointed at the menu and remarked, “Are you guys crazy? One cup of coffee for 100 RMB? Is your coffee made of gold?”

Shi Yu wanted to explain the reason behind it, but Zhao Yao was growing extremely impatient. He stated, “This is the average price for a cup of coffee in a cat café. The money that you pay is not only for the coffee; you are also paying for our service and the opportunity to play with the cats.

If you can’t afford it, it simply means you are not our intended customer. You may take your leave.”

“You!” That was not the answer the woman had expected. Her face turned red then purple and shouted, “You’re just trying to cheat our money! The stray cats in your café can be found all over the neighboring districts, and you expect me to pay 100 RMB for that? You might as well go and rob a bank instead! I will never buy coffee from your café...”

“Get lost.”

The woman’s lips curled in disgust after hearing Zhao Yao’s words. A glimmer of red light flashed across his face. Suddenly, the woman felt as though she had lost control of her body and she started walking towards the exit of the café involuntarily.

Shi Yu did not notice the anomaly with the woman. She just smiled and commented, “I don’t think that’s the best way to treat your first customer.” After all, she had one year of experience in the sales sector. Zhao Yao’s disrespectful treatment towards the customer was an out of bounds behavior for all salesperson.

Zhao Yao shrugged his shoulders and replied, “It’s okay, and people like her will never come to our café and buy anything from us. If any customer comes in with a similar attitude, just chase them away.”

Shi Yu laughed in response, but she thought, “No businessman will ever chase a customer away.”

After taking a few steps out of the cat café, the woman had regained control of her body. She stared at her body in shock, “How did I ... How did I walk out of the café? Was I possessed?” She turned around and stared at the café behind her. She wanted to return and reason with Zhao Yao but gave up the thought eventually.

“Hmm, his business will not be here for long. Why should I even bother reasoning with him?”

She then continued walking towards the shopping mall.

Shi Yu focused on the menu and realized that what the woman said did make some sense. She told Zhao Yao, “Zhao Yao, is our price a little too expensive?”

“How is this expensive?” Zhao Yao continued, “Our coffees are freshly brewed, and you get to play with 22 cats. This experience is definitely worth more than 100 RMB.”

Shi Yu was left speechless by Zhao Yao’s response. She scanned the boxes of Nestle coffee lying on top of the bar counter and thought, “You don’t even have a coffeemaker, and how are you ready for tomorrow’s grand opening ...”

After this period of interaction, Shi Yu began to understand Zhao Yao a little better.

Zhao Yao was quite a miser when it came to minor things in his café, contrary to how he behaved when he bought his house and car.

However, she did not know that the bulk of Zhao Yao’s saving had evaporated because of the money he had spent on his cats.

Shi Yu’s face curled into a smile, as she proposed, “How about we do some promotional event? Maybe we can offer our beverages at a discounted price or even have a buy 1 get 1 free promotion?”

“We don’t need it,” Zhao Yao immediately shot down the suggestion, “I’m telling you, the price in our café will only go up and never go down. I’m going to do a stock check on our ice inventory. In the future, if the customers order any chilled beverage, add as much ice as possible.

Hmm, try to increase the temperature too. That way, they will be more inclined to buy a chilled beverage.”

Shi Yu was astounded by what she had heard, and she secretly agreed with what the woman had mentioned earlier.

“We truly are a café which is out to cheat the customer’s money.”

However, Zhao Yao did not agree with it. He understood the power of Celestial Beats and how much comfort it would bring to the customers. It was like having a fire to keep you warm during the cold winter.

Your organs, skeletons, and muscles would be freed from the pressure of working day and night, and finally, be allowed to rest. Zhao Yao knew that everyone would love it.

However, he was afraid that Celestial Beats might attract too much unwanted attention.

Hence, he began writing a few words on a giant cardboard.

Shi Yu curiously went to Zhao Yao to take a peep at what he was writing. She could not help but rolled her eyes when she saw the content.

It wrote:

This shop employed the state-of-the-art technology from MIT. By combining the Chinese principle of Leiyin and the magnetized marrow and nano-bones present in the cat’s body, the cats were able to radiate an electromagnetic wave which would be beneficial to your health.

The human body would be exposed to this radiation when you are playing with the cats. It would improve your immunity, endocrine system, and your physical health condition. You would feel like you had reborn after leaving our cafe.

Shi Yu did not believe a word Zhao Yao wrote and thought, “Isn’t this pseudo-science? I’m sure he made all this up, even an elementary student would see through his lie.”

However, Shi Yu did not care about it. In her eyes, this was the government’s effort to prevent the apostles from committing any atrocities. He could continue doing whatever he liked as long as he did not hurt anyone.

An idea suddenly sprang in Shi Yu’s head, “Wait, Zhao Yao is an apostle; don’t tell me this is his ability?” She suddenly grew very curious as to what his power was, which made Zhao Yao so confident about his cat café’s business.

“Maybe he has the power to brew a perfect cup of coffee?”

...

Meanwhile, the red-haired woman had stepped foot in another café on the other end of the shopping mall.

It was far superior to Zhao Yao’s café in terms of its furnishing, size, ambiance, equipment and even the service of the staff.

When the woman entered the café, it was packed with customers. 7 or 8 college students were even queueing up for their coffee.

This café had been the most popular café in the college town. Its modern design coupled with a wide variety of coffee that was reasonably priced had attracted teachers and students over in drove.

The woman chuckled as she saw the bustling business in the café. She was the owner of this café.

A waiter approached the woman and asked, “Ms. Mayer how is our competition?”

“It’s just a café run by a bunch of rookies, they will last for at most three months,” Ms. Mayer replied nonchalantly, she continued, “Furthermore, and our styles are opposites, so there’s nothing for us to worry.”
