Chapter 198 The Kitten Was Immersed in Water

Chapter 198 The Kitten Was Immersed in Water

The little bread was found by the woman brought by Zhang Ran. When Lin Shutang saw it, it was held in the woman's arms. Under the dim light, it was not very clear. The little bread's eyes were blinking with difficulty, and it looked like it was about to fall asleep.

"Little bread." Lin Shutang walked quickly forward and took it, only to find that the kitten was wet all over and trembling uncontrollably.

"Ms. Luo, thank you." After saying that, she didn't bother to say anything else to the other party and hurried to find Li Yansheng with the cat in her arms.

Li Yansheng got the news and was already waiting at the elevator entrance.

After getting in the car, Lin Shutang kept an eye on the kitten in his arms. Seeing that its spirits were getting worse and worse, he asked anxiously, "Can you go a little faster?"

Hearing Lin Shutang's voice, which was almost crying, Fan Sizhu felt very embarrassed.

It's already 80 miles per hour, if it goes any faster it will be speeding!

Li Yansheng lowered his head and carefully observed the cat in Lin Shutang's arms. It must be cold, but it's not a big problem. He reached out and turned up the temperature of the air conditioner. Then he put his hand on Lin Shutang's shoulder and patted it gently. "Don't worry, we'll be there soon."

About thirty minutes later, the car stopped at the nearest pet hospital.

When the doctor examined Xiao Mianbao, Lin Shutang stayed at the door. She was sitting at first, but after a few minutes she couldn't sit still anymore and stood up again.

It had only been brought to the deer park for about a day, so the relationship wasn't that deep. But Lin Shutang always felt that since she had adopted it, she had to be responsible for it. It was because she hadn't watched it carefully today that the kitten suffered.

Li Yansheng's phone rang, "I'm going out to answer a call."

He walked to the hospital entrance, stopped at the steps, and lit a cigarette for himself.

The call was from one of his subordinates, reporting what happened tonight.

"Ms. Luo said that when she saw the cat, it was soaking in the bathroom sink. But that's a blind spot for surveillance." As if unsure whether to speak or not, the person on the other end was silent for a moment, then after some hesitation, spoke up: "Only five people went in that direction during that time period. Two diners, two employees, and the other one was Ms. Luo."

Li Yansheng lit the cigarette ash in the flower bed and took another puff. The orange light flickered, and his face, facing away from the street light, was dark and unclear.

"Boss, do you need to call everyone over to question them?"

"Not for now."

"OK."

The washstand is about 1.2 meters high. A kitten a few months old wouldn't be able to reach that height. This incident was almost certainly man-made.

Before returning to the hospital, Li Yansheng made another phone call.

At around eleven o'clock, the doctor came out with the kitten.

Lin Shutang felt so distressed when he saw the kitten that was still listless.

"Luckily, it wasn't in the water for very long, so not much water got into its lungs. But it was pretty frightened. It's very scared now. Be careful when you go back, as it might hurt you."

Lin Shutang didn't say anything. Li Yansheng nodded and said, holding the cat box, "Okay, thank you."

On the way back, Lin Shutang still didn't say anything.

Combining Xiaomianbao's reaction and the doctor's words, she was almost certain that someone had maliciously put the cat into the water.

"Sir, Madam." Aunt Lu was watching over the people cleaning the cat's room today. She cleaned it again after the people left, so she didn't rest until after twelve o'clock.

Seeing the two of them coming back, she reached out to take the kitten from Lin Shutang's arms.

As soon as he stepped forward, Li Yansheng raised his hand to stop him: "Go and rest first!"

"Okay, sir." Aunt Lu didn't know what happened, but she could see that both of them looked unhappy.

That night, Lin Shutang brought the kitten to the master bedroom again. However, she didn't say a word until she turned off the lights.

Looking at the girl with her back to him, Li Yansheng turned sideways, reached out to hold her in his arms, and then leaned in.

Feeling the warmth approaching from behind, Lin Shutang lowered her head and looked through the quilt at where his arms were around her waist, without rejecting his approach.
