Cat glanced at Ye Mingshi and said, "You're not allowed to talk nonsense. Cat isn't that kind of person."
Ye Mingshi gave her a look that said he understood perfectly and didn't need any explanation.
The cat continued drinking its soup, ignoring him.
After a while, the cat suddenly stopped eating, as if it remembered something, "Last night... I think I saw Kino."
My memory is a bit hazy, and I don't know if it's true or not.
Ye Mingshi was not surprised. He said, "Ah? Brother Mu? That's not surprising. Yesterday was the anniversary of the death of Jin Er and Brother Mu's mother. In previous years, Brother Mu would come to drink with Jin Er."
The cat immediately asked curiously, "Why?"
Ye Mingshi said, "Why is there a reason?"
Cat thought for a moment, then asked while biting her spoon, "Does Ah Jin... really love his mother? It's been so many years, why is he in a bad mood?"
Cat felt that human emotions were very complicated and she couldn't quite understand them, but she cared a lot about Ah Jin's unhappiness.
Ye Mingshi suddenly fell silent, even though she had been laughing so loudly just moments before.
He ran his fingers through his hair, walked out, and sat on the sofa before saying, “Cat Cat, Jin Er… he’s not quite like us. His birth was an accident, and on the day he was born, Aunt Mu died in childbirth. Although Jin Er doesn’t say it, and the Mu family never mentions it, Jin Er has always felt that he killed his mother.”
Upon hearing this, the cat felt as if a stone had suddenly fallen into its heart, making it feel very heavy.
How could something like this happen to Ah Jin?
The cat buzzed and said, "Yesterday was also Ah Jin's birthday."
Ye Mingshi nodded, "Yes, but Jin Er never celebrates his birthday, and no one dares to celebrate it for him unless they're looking for death."
The cat is a little sad.
She suddenly remembered "Missing One": widowed, widowed, lonely, alone, disabled, one must be chosen; it is a curse that no one can defy.
Could it be that Ah Jin really inherited the "Missing One" technique?
Suddenly, the cat asked, "Ye Mingshi, why did you say that Ajin is different from you?"
Ye Mingshi said, "Wasn't that enough just now? Sigh, it's all a coincidence. Who would blame Jin Er? But those involved are often blinded by their own perspective, so what can be done?"
Cat didn't ask him any more questions. He felt that Ye Mingshi hadn't told her everything either, but it didn't matter what else was being hidden.
"Have you finished eating? Where are you going? I'll take you there," Ye Mingshi said.
The cat picked up its coat and said, "Let's go to Yingchuang."
Ye Mingshi stood up as well, "Hey, I thought you were going to come with me to find Jin Er and comfort him."
The cat said, "Ah Jin doesn't need the cat's comfort."
If this were something that could be easily comforted and forgotten, Ah Jin wouldn't still remember it after all these years.
...
When Maomao arrived at Yingchuang, she found Jiuyunchi.
"Jiuyunchi, would you like to invest in my company?" Maomao asked bluntly.
Jiu Yunchi looked up at the cat, seemingly unsurprised by her words, "Are you ready?"
He knew that Maomao had been making arrangements for her company all along, and the fact that she was only speaking up now meant that everything was ready.
Cat nodded, "The door can be used directly by me. Now that the things I need most are ready, the company establishment can be brought forward."
Jiu Yunchi asked her directly, "How much funding do you need?"
Cat laughed, "Hehe, Jiu Yunchi, I won't take yours for nothing. This is my proposal. You can read it before making a decision."
Jiu Yunchi flipped through it and was somewhat surprised by the detail in the proposal; Maomao had really prepared it seriously.
This is a very substantial project proposal!
After closing the file, Jiu Yunchi replied to Maomao very carefully, "I'll evaluate it and give you an answer when I get home tonight."
The cat nodded.
Jiu Yunchi suddenly asked, "You came back last night, where did you go?"
The topic changed so quickly...
The cat said, "I'm going to find Ah Jin."
Jiu Yunchi rubbed his temples. Actually, he had guessed it, but suddenly felt a sense of helplessness, like "a daughter is not meant to stay at home once she grows up."
But Maomao asked, "Jiuyunchi, could Ajin's father be the successor of 'Missing One'?"
Jiu Yunchi said, "That's possible. The Fengmen sect's continued strength is inseparable from 'The Missing One's Skill'."
The cat then asked, "So, who will be affected by the curse of the missing door?"
Jiu Yunchi slightly turned his chair and looked at Maomao, "If the prophecy of 'Missing One' comes true, it will either be you or your descendants. Why are you suddenly asking this... Mu Jin's father died young, which may indeed be related to 'Missing One'."
Upon hearing this, the cat gave a soft hum and murmured, "No matter what the curse is, it cannot harm Ah Jin."
Jiu Yunchi didn't hear clearly, and just as he was about to ask, Maomao said again, "December 12th is the Eight Gates Battle, which happens once every twenty years. Jiu Yunchi, will the Jing Gate participate?"
Jiu Yunchi narrowed his eyes slightly and quickly made a decision: "I'll participate."
He used to stay away from the Eight Gates because the Jiu family couldn't withstand any accidents, but now, besides him, the Jiu family also has Maomao and Jiu Yebai, so there's no need for the Jingmen to continue hiding their identities.
The cat stroked its chin. "Then you and Jiu Yebai need to prepare well!"
...
night.
After learning about the Eight Gates Battle on December 12th, Jiu Yebai was naturally full of ambition.
Jiu Yunchi also went home earlier than usual today, bringing his investment plan with him.
Jiu Yunchi said, “The investment is divided into three stages. The first stage is 500 million. After your company has established itself in Beijing, the second stage will add 2 billion to expand outwards. The third stage, 6 billion, will be used to upgrade your industrial chain.”
The cat looked at it and was very satisfied! "Jiu Yunchi, you won't lose out."
Jiu Yunchi nodded. "I've always trusted my judgment."
Soon after, Jiu Yunchi asked again, "We're about to register the company, have you decided on a name yet?"
The cat said, "Azure Rainbow."
Jiu Yunchi asked, "Why did you choose such a name?"
The cat casually remarked, "It sounds nice."
Actually, the cat had thought about it carefully! This would be a name that would accompany her for a long time, but she still couldn't think of one she liked.
Qinghong... The place where Ah Jin used to live was called Qinghong Palace, which was the closest place to the Star Sea.
With the funding issue resolved, Maomao quickly registered the company and began setting up operations in earnest.
Only the Jiu family knows about this.
Ye Mingshi went to Cat Food No. 1 a few times, but couldn't find any entertainment news about Cat Cat these past few days, and couldn't see her in private either. Ye Mingshi finally called Cat Cat.
"Is there something you need?" Cat asked as soon as she answered the phone.
Ye Mingshi felt a little wronged by the businesslike tone. "Cat Cat, why haven't you been active lately? Have you considered the feelings of your fans? You should at least update your Weibo."
