Chapter 5: Temptation

Mina was a beastkin of the cat race. She had not eaten for three days.

Mina already knew what her ending would be when she was caught and put into the dungeon. She would either die or be toyed with by the humans. Today was the day to meet her fate.

She was filled with regret. She should never have believed in the hypocritical humans. She regretted believing that humans would actually be kind enough to give her food. She did not think that she, a dignified cat warrior, would be caught by the humans, even though she hadn't eaten for 2 days and didn't really have any strength to fight.

She had been sold to the nobles for the price of one silver coin and was subsequently locked up in this cold and smelly dungeon. Today was the third day she had been caught, and she once again heard the sound of a human.

She tried to stand up by using the wall. Her movements were so slow that it seemed like she would fall at any time. However, she stood up completely in the end and staggered from the corner to the front of the human.

Appearing in front of her was a human who was holding a tool that was emitting a strong light. She tried hard to open her eyes. I will not succumb to humans!

It didn't matter to her that the human in front of her looked quite handsome, was very young, and emitted a faint, fresh fragrance. Three days ago, she could fight 10 of him, but right now, it was hard for her to even stand. Why do I see two of him? No, there's four of him now...

Boom!!!

The corner of Liu Feng's mouth twitched. He sighed as he looked at the catgirl who had passed out in the dungeon. He once again started to smash the old lock, deciding to bring some locks with him next time.

When Liu Feng came to the catgirl's side, he checked her pulse and found that she was still alive. He took out a bottle of water from his storage space and fed the catgirl a bit of water and carried her out of the dungeon.

Warmth. That was the only feeling that Mina currently had. It was much better than the cold dungeon, just like being in the embrace of a mother.

Eh? Wait a minute. Dungeon?

Mina abruptly opened her eyes and saw an unfamiliar ceiling. She wanted to get up, but she didn't have the strength to do so. She scanned the surroundings with her eyes. She was in a room that she hadn't seen before, and she was lying on a bed with a soft quilt covering her. This quilt is really warm, wait, no, that's not what's important right now.

Mina yanked the quilt and looked at her body. Upon seeing that she was still wearing the same clothes, she patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Creak..."

The door opened, and Mina immediately became vigilant.

Liu Feng came in with a plate of porridge in his hand. He looked at Mina and said with a smile, "You're awake?"

"Yes!" Mina nodded seriously. Her tight face and continuously shaking ears indicated that she was nervous.

Liu Feng raised his eyebrows as he had expected her to ignore him.

"Come and eat something, you must have not eaten anything for a few days." Liu Feng said, putting the rice porridge on the table.

"I'm not..." Mina wanted to refuse, but her stomach growled.

Growl...

It instantly made Mina's face red. She screamed in her head. The great cat warrior will not accept human alms! Besides, hypocritical humans would definitely put sleeping drugs in the food. Even though this human doesn't have a hateful, unpleasant stench, he would definitely use some sort of a scheme.

"You won't eat it?" Liu Feng asked. He shrugged, picked up one of the bowls, and started to eat. The tempting rice porridge emitted a pure rice fragrance.

"No..."

Growl...

Her stomach growled again, which made Mina's face even redder, and her cat ears drooped.

"You really won't eat it?" Liu Feng kept putting rice porridge in his mouth, and his eyes were flashing with laughter. I can't believe that this catgirl is getting embarrassed.

"Really, no..."

Growl...

Her stomach growled again, and her mouth began to secrete a lot of saliva. Her eyes were staring at the bowl of porridge in Liu Feng's hands.

Liu Feng shook his head, got up with the rice porridge, and went to the catgirl's side. He shoved the porridge into the catgirl's hands, smiled, and said, "Eat. In life, you can have nothing, but you cannot starve."

Growl...

Without waiting for Mina to reject him, her stomach growled again.

The next second, a spoonful of rice porridge was shoved into Mina's mouth, making her eyes widen in surprise. As she tasted polished rice porridge, she thought about the last time she had eaten porridge made with polished rice. It had been many years since then, and she was surprisingly able to eat it again in this place.

Liu Feng looked at the dazed Mina, smiled, and walked away silently.

When Mina regained her senses, she glanced around a bit. She didn't see Liu Feng, so she swallowed her saliva and started to eat the bowl of rice porridge in her hands.

"Delicious, so delicious..."

Mina shoved spoonful after spoonful of porridge into her mouth, and her eyes started to water. She indulged in the taste and smell of the rice porridge.

She remembered that polished rice porridge was something that only the high nobles of the humans could eat. She had only eaten it once by accident, and she instantly fell in love with the rice porridge.

Mina quickly finished the bowl of rice porridge in her hands. She turned her head and stared at the other bowl of rice porridge on the table. She secretly glanced at the door and then at the empty bowl in her hand, and an argument began in her head.

"You already ate a bowl, so why not eat another one?"

"No, just because this bowl is safe, it doesn't mean the next bowl is safe. Did you forget that humans lied to you?"

Mina felt that there was an angel Mina and a devil Mina arguing in her head about whether or not to eat another bowl of rice porridge.

"Are you stupid? If the human wanted to harm Mina, he would have already done so..."

In the end, devil Mina won the argument...

Idk, the title is called temptation, and then there's a line that says, "Temptation from the Tip of the Tongue". Not really sure what was going on, so I included both. I also included an image if you're confused at what I'm talking about.
