Qiu Qiu proudly bumped my shoulder and said to me jokingly, "Did you hear that? You must cherish me!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" I responded repeatedly, cooperating with her helplessly.
Qiu Qiu narrowed his eyes and smiled, but still rejected Mingsi's invitation.
"Auntie, you can see that my shop is a mess because of the cats. I have to clean it up before I go home. Besides, these cats need to be placed somewhere. It's really inconvenient for me to go out to dinner with you."
Qiu Qiu cleverly promised: "Next time! Auntie, next time I will treat you to a meal and ask you to try the best restaurant around here."
Qiu Qiu had already said this much, so Mingsi couldn't force her any further.
"Okay then, just tell Xiaoshan if you need any help." Mingsi stood up and prepared to say goodbye.
Qiu Qiu patted my shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, I won't be polite to her."
Mingyuan put the kitten in his arms down, stood up, cleaned the cat hair off his body, and prepared to leave.
But the kitten seemed reluctant to leave Mingyuan, and kept clinging to his feet and rubbing against his trouser legs.
I laughed and joked, "Uncle, it seems this kitten can't bear to leave you!"
"Why don't Mingyuan stay?" Mingsi suddenly suggested, "It's a good opportunity for him to help Qiu Qiu deal with these kittens, so she doesn't have to make a fuss about catching cats herself."
Mingyuan was a little surprised, frowned slightly, and looked at Mingsi with suspicion.
Qiu Qiuze was pleasantly surprised, but still cautiously asked Mingyuan's opinion: "Uncle Mingyuan, will this cause you any trouble?"
Mingyuan glanced at Mingsi, then looked down at the cat that was still acting coquettishly at his feet. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded.
He added venomously, "I just can't bear to see these kittens being tortured by you."
However, Qiu Qiu didn't take his words to heart. She smiled and flattered Mingyuan: "Thank you, Uncle Mingyuan. Don't worry, I will definitely treat you to a meal when I'm done!"
Mingyuan looked at him helplessly, then turned around and hugged the other cats.
Watching Qiu Qiu and Mingyuan busy in the store, Mingsi forced a satisfied smile and took me out of Qiu Qiu's cat cafe and found a restaurant nearby for dinner.
After meeting Qiu Qiu, Mingsi's favorability towards Qiu Qiu increased sharply, and he even praised Qiu Qiu highly during the meal.
"Qiu Qiu's personality is really likable. She looks carefree, but she speaks with high emotional intelligence and is not pretentious. She is a very nice girl."
I nodded in agreement: "Yes, Qiu Qiu's personality has been like this since she was in school, and I like her temper too."
Mingsi suddenly thought of something and chuckled.
"And I found that your uncle's venomous tongue has no effect on her at all, because Qiu Qiu doesn't take it to heart at all."
Hearing Mingsi say this, I couldn't help but think that she deliberately forced Mingyuan to add Qiu Qiu's WeChat, and also took the initiative to propose that Mingyuan stay to help with these things. A guess came to my mind, but this guess shocked me a little.
I asked tentatively in surprise, "Mom, you're not trying to match Mingyuan and Qiu Qiu, are you?"
Although Qiu Qiu is carefree and doesn't take many things to heart, she is also a very serious person once she falls in love. Then Mingyuan's sharp tongue will not go in one ear and out the other.
And with Qiu Qiu's hot temper, it would be easy for her and Mingyuan to have a quarrel and turn the roof upside down.
