Tigers are already quite large, and now that the little girl was sitting, Theo's big head could rest directly on her arm. His mouth revealed enormous fangs and a tongue covered in barbs.

Compared to a cat, a white tiger has a larger face, but its ears aren't as big.

The fair hand stroked the fluffy head, and Theo seemed to enjoy it, rubbing against it.

"I know it! I love furry little animals the most."

Qi Jiu's voice was soft, it was unclear whether she was speaking to someone else or talking to herself, and her expression softened considerably as she stroked the white tiger's big head.

Wu Chi and the others, who had overheard everything: "..."

"A furry...little animal?"

Is this a small animal? A small animal that could kill someone with a single swipe of its paw? A small animal that could devour a person in one bite? Does the master have some misunderstanding about the term "small animal"?

Wu Chi paused, looked at the three people beside him, and sure enough, he saw confusion and bewilderment on their faces.

At this moment, Qi Jiu looked up at them and said, "Isn't that right?"

The rhetorical question seemed to carry a certain...threat?

"Yes, yes, yes! Little animals! So cute! I can eat them one by one, no, no, look at those little ears, haha..."

Wu Liang's smile was a little stiff, but he still didn't dare to complain, and he didn't dare to let the smile fade.

Finally, a solution was found for this matter.

The four of them had just stepped out of the office when the cell phone lying on the table started buzzing, causing the table to vibrate slightly.

Looking at the contact information above, Qi Jiu subconsciously withdrew her hand from the white tiger.

"Awooo—"

Baihu's voice was so loud that it could be heard throughout the entire room and hallway.

But behind that powerful voice, there seemed to be a hint of grievance. The white tiger stretched out its large head, wanting the girl to touch it.

To comfort her, Qi Jiu reached out and patted her twice, saying as she did so, "Don't make a sound later, or you won't get any meat to eat."

The white tiger remained silent, and the little girl then answered the video call. She placed the phone on the table, letting the tiger lie down in a spot out of the camera's view.

"Ah Lin?"

The man in the video seemed to be in a good mood; before he even said anything, a faint smile played on his lips. He was looking at her with tender eyes.

Qi Silin nodded, his eyes narrowing slightly as he looked at the background behind her.

"You're not in the M organization? Your brother let you go?"

"Not really. Something came up and I'm here to take care of it. The course isn't over yet, and I'll be going back later. This is just a temporary arrangement."

Upon hearing this, Qi Silin nodded knowingly.

This time, however, Qi Jiu was a little confused. "Did you find money on the street? You seem to be in a good mood?"

Although the man shook his head, he couldn't hide the smile on his face. "No, I don't need the money right now. I just wanted to vent my anger, which I'd been holding back for a long time."

"To vent?"

Qi Jiu seemed not to understand, but seeing the expression on the face opposite her, she smiled and did not ask any further questions.

They were both busy with their own careers, and it had been quite a while since they had last met. Now that they finally had some free time, they naturally wanted to talk more.

When I hung up the video call, the white tiger behind me had already started to doze off. Its mouth was open, its tongue was slightly curled up, and the whole cat looked sleepy.

Its own alertness made it stand up immediately and rub against the girl. The girl, whose face clearly showed exhaustion, found it amusing and led it directly to her bedroom.

The next day, the girl, who had a biological clock, had just sat up in bed when she saw that the white tiger, which should have been lying by the bed, was now standing by the window, looking at something.

Meanwhile, in a manor on Continent D.

Lin Wu sat on the sofa, listening to his younger brother's conversation with Qi Jiu, a bitter look flashing in his eyes.

They shouldn't have been like this; they should have been even closer than Lind.

Although the computer in front of him was on, his attention was completely elsewhere.

After finally waiting for Lin De to hang up the phone, Lin Wu pretended to be indifferent and glanced at the data on the computer screen.

"What are Joel's plans? He can't just leave it here with me forever, can he? This isn't a storage room, and I'm not a kindergarten teacher."

Linde pursed his lips and smiled. "Brother, could you make an exception? There's already a good chance with Joel, it should be ready soon..."

"You brat, it's not that I'm unwilling, but Joel is still a foreigner. How can you guarantee he's a good person?"

Lin De seemed to have anticipated his brother's response, and the smile on his face slowly faded. "Brother, don't worry, Qi Qi is already..."

"OK."

Linde, who hadn't even finished speaking, was left speechless: "???"

Wait, what a double standard! Qi Jiu is fine as soon as he's mentioned? He hadn't even finished speaking!

Seemingly noticing his younger brother's speechlessness, Lin Wu subconsciously cleared his throat. "I checked the Klin family. Mingyan isn't quite there yet. We need to hurry. Qiqi should have already started making moves."

Meanwhile, Mingyan was sitting in his study, extremely busy.

The documents on my desk were already a mess, and now the phone on my desk is ringing. I'm completely overwhelmed.

Ming said that even if he didn't want to answer the phone now, he would have to answer it if the phone was too noisy.

After hearing something said on the other end of the phone, Mingyan's already unpleasant expression turned even uglier. "What did you say?!"

I don't know what's going on lately, but so many contracts have disappeared in just a few days. If this continues, the Klin family will be finished!

The study quieted down. Mingyan sat in his chair, staring at the messy documents on the table, and for a moment he was lost in thought.

"What on earth is going on lately?"

In just a few days, most of the cooperation has been lost. How is that possible?

Looking at the notices and messages sent by his subordinates on the computer, Mingyan suddenly frowned. "Xingyue Group..."

I met Qi Jiu, the boss of Xingyue Group, just a couple of days ago. I don't know why, but Qi Jiu actually stole their cooperation with Klin and Mi's.

Why is that? What did the Klin family do to offend Starmoon?

But recently, besides the Star Moon Group, many other powerful families are vying for Klin's cooperation. Why is that? Many of these families have never even met him before…

Instantly, countless questions flooded his mind, but he still couldn't come up with anything.
