Chapter 2: 03 I'll take him back

  "What's with your expression?" asked the cat who couldn't help but ask.

  "You're pretty and... a bit different." He tilted his head towards the door, "Forget it, let's go."

  Xi Yu stood awkwardly in place, looking up to see that Miao Miao and Bai Mu Si had both walked to the door. Miao Miao stopped in her tracks and turned back to look at her, and she quickly looked away, not wanting Miao Miao to see her disheveled state.

  "Hey, what's-his-name, aren't you going to catch up?" Typical spoiled rich kid tone.

  Xi Yin's heart beats rapidly, wanting to go but unable to bring herself to do so. As she hesitates, the cat-like creature has already grabbed hold of her.

  "Let's go." The cat said excitedly to her.

  They followed Bai Mu as he walked on the playground, not saying much, but roughly understanding that he was 13 years old and had come here to take a girl back to be his sister. "Being alone is too boring, and those who are too young are too noisy. You two are just right." He put his hands in his pockets, his tone as calm as his father's.

  She secretly measured him, her heart pounding suddenly.

  He's really handsome, isn't he? Even just his back is perfectly flawless.

  The warm sunshine in March is like a shy girl, and the cat senses Hei's intention, so it secretly makes up its mind to bring them together.

  Let Xi Yin and him go, she doesn't mind being an orphan, anyway it's only two years, fourteen years old, should be going to compulsory junior high school.

  And besides, I have a good time for myself, how can I leave?

  "By the way, where did Liang Chen go? I haven't had a chance to look for him these past few days. I don't know if he's angry or not. Speaking of which, she left without saying goodbye this time, and he saw it too. Sigh, thinking about it makes me feel like I'm not human."

  "Excuse me, where is your Dean's office?"

  The cat heard the sound and raised its head, seeing a tall and thin man standing in front of it. Although his eyebrows and eyes were handsome, they carried an unmistakable fatigue, as if he had weathered many storms. He politely stopped them and was asking for directions.

  "The office is just...". The cat meowed hard trying to explain, but the man was confused. She helplessly waved her hand and said "Let's go, I'll take you there."

  "Thank you. The little girl is very cute." The man stretched out his hand and touched her hair, smiling with narrowed eyes.

  She shrugged and dodged, glanced at Xi Yin, sneered and said: "Well, I'm leaving, you two play." After finishing, she quickly turned around, not giving them a chance to speak.

  The man immediately followed her. There are many guests today, she suddenly became curious: "Are you also here to adopt a child?"

  "You can say that," the man said with a smile, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. "He's my son, I'll take him back."

  "Oh." A faint sense of loss welled up in Meow's heart, and she fell silent, letting the man rattle on with his questions.

  Finally, the man knew better than to say anything more and shut his mouth.

  She was just feeling lost, if her own father would come to pick her up one day that would be great. She remembered the night she ran away, so hungry on the platform that she was drowsy, she saw a father and daughter not far away, the father lifted his daughter high above his head, their smiling faces pierced her eyes like needles.

  The little girl later gave her one yuan coin.

  Watching her innocent smile, the cat thief fled with force, leaving the girl standing in stunned silence.

  Later on, she walked back, the coin was still lying on the ground, shining with a cold light, and she picked it up.

  Unconsciously, she had arrived at the office. As soon as she entered the office, she saw Liang Chen standing there with his back to her, his figure still as solitary and cold as ever.
