  The supermarket was too busy for the employees to clean the fish thoroughly, so Lin Nuan still had to wash it herself and dig out the dirty parts.

  The British Shorthair cat that had been lazing in its nest under the warm sunlight opened its eyes at the sudden smell of the fish. It cocked its head to the side in the direction of the kitchen. After a momentary pause, it leaped from the nest and ran towards the kitchen while meowing.

  Lin Nuan placed the dirty innards into a plastic bag and went to throw it away, in case it stank up the house.

  When the fat cat saw Lin Nuan heading outdoors with the plastic bag in hand, it threw aside its aloofness and hurriedly meowed to act cute, raising its front paw to hug Lin Nuan’s right leg.

  Lin Nuan used her leg to gently move the cat aside.

  Seeing that Lin Nuan was leaving, the fat cat wrapped its soft body around Lin Nuan’s legs and rubbed its face against Lin Nuan, walking between Lin Nuan’s legs to butter her up…


  When Lin Nuan went left, it would go left; when Lin Nuan went right, it tripped from suddenly losing support, before going right to continue rubbing against Lin Nuan’s legs.

  This was an especially observant cat—it knew to fear Fu Huai’an, and it knew that buttering Lin Nuan up would get it good food!

  Pride was non-existent when it came to fear and delicacies!

  Lin Nuan had also raised a cat before previously, and she had never let Mushroom eat these kinds of foods…


  For one, she was afraid that the raw food would upset the cat’s stomach. Secondly, Lin Nuan felt that it was dirty, and there would be a raw meat stench after the cat eats it.

  Lin Nuan threw the fish innards along with other trash into the outdoor bin. Once the fat gray cat saw that there was no more hope to get to the fish innards, it sat down by the door. Suddenly, as though it remembered something, it ran back into the house with its tail standing up.

  When Lin Nuan returned to the kitchen, she saw the gray cat squatting beside the sink with its head tilted to the side as it tried to extend its paw towards the fish Lin Nuan left soaking in the water.

  Once it saw Lin Nuan return, the cat immediately retracted its paw and licked its lips. It then turned around and jumped off the counter, escaping the scene swiftly.

  Lin Nuan washed her hands and marinated the fish before keeping the spare ribs with carrot and corn soup she made for Tuan Tuan over low heat. After a short pause, she added more cat food into the cat’s bowl.

  After she was done, she glanced at Tuan Tuan, who was happily drawing in the living room with his butt sticking into the air. She sat down with her laptop in the dining room and carefully read through the papers Liu Mingchen had given her that morning. When she encountered something she didn’t understand, she would quickly search the internet and also take a quick look at the soup to ensure it wasn’t boiling over…


  The sunlight gradually slanted towards the west and shone into the house through the tall windows, covering the floor and furniture in a layer of soft warmth.

  The first floor of the entire villa was extremely quiet, with only the sound of the soup boiling in the pot and that of Lin Nuan flipping through the documents or typing on her laptop.

  Despite this, it felt like a tranquil time.

  Hearing the sound of light and quick footsteps, Lin Nuan shifted her gaze away from the laptop to look towards the living room.

  Tuan Tuan wore his cartoon slippers with both hands behind his back, looking as though he was holding something. He silently ran over cutely to the entrance of the dining room as he stared up at Lin Nuan. His gaze seemed to be beckoning Lin Nuan to call him over…


  Under Tuan Tuan’s anticipating gaze, Lin Nuan placed down the papers in her hand and motioned with her hands for Tuan Tuan to come over.

  Tuan Tuan jogged happily towards Lin Nuan. He didn’t show his work to Lin Nuan straight away; he was afraid that he would disturb Lin Nuan when she was busy.
