Chapter 15 "Little girl, you must accept the kitten..."
Qi Ying's eyelids jumped when he heard what the man said. He turned around and looked at the person beside him and said, "Don't talk nonsense. There is no one waiting for me. I was just playing games."
Xia Ruoxin opened her eyes wide: "What kind of game can also make phone calls?"
Qi Ying ignored her, took his tape measure back from her neck and started working. He didn't ask what game Qi Ying was playing until Xia Ruoxin came home from get off work. He left with a foxy look on his face. Only after the people left did Qi Ying breathe a sigh of relief and continue to busy himself with his own things.
By the time we closed the store, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.
Qi Ying was tired after a day's work. He yawned while tidying up the desk. The bride's heavy-work wedding dress had been completed, and the groom's suit was also very satisfactory to the other party. On the wedding day, Qi Ying would go over to check it again and help deal with some minor problems with the wedding dress, and then the order would be completed.
The customer who bought the windbreaker wanted Qi Ying to mail it, so Qi Ying placed an order for the courier to pick it up at home tomorrow morning. After doing all this, he brushed his teeth, washed his face, and went to bed.
Halfway through her sleep, the cell phone next to her pillow rang. Someone was calling her.
Qi Ying did not wake up, but continued to sleep soundly with his head tilted.
At this moment, Xing Xiaochu was walking on the street, holding his mobile phone and waiting anxiously.
Qi Ying said she would come back after work, so why hasn't she returned home yet at one or two in the morning?
Why can’t I get through to Qi Ying’s phone?
Will something unexpected happen to Qi Ying?
Xing Xiaochu was very worried, but she didn't dare to walk around. After all, she was unfamiliar with the place. She could only stroll back and forth near the community, trying to see where Qi Ying would come back from.
But there was no one on the street in the second half of the night. Only the lights of the roadside signs were still on, making Xing Xiaochu's shadow very long.
The further she walked, the fewer signs there were. Xing Xiaochu didn't know where she was. She was preparing to go back while calling Qi Ying. As soon as the call was connected, two people staggered out from the entrance of the alley.
Xing Xiaochu's heart tightened and he stood there motionless.
The two people could not be seen clearly from a distance, but judging from their shapes and heights, they should be two alphas.
Xing Xiaochu's hand holding the phone trembled involuntarily. She was afraid of alpha, especially in this situation.
The two figures were getting closer and closer, and Xing Xiaochu could even smell the strong smell of alcohol on each other. The phone on the other end of the phone rang for a long time, so long that when Xing Xiaochu thought the other party would not answer, Qi Ying answered the phone.
"Hello?"
Qi Ying was still very sleepy. She was lying on the bed and didn't see clearly who was calling. She put the phone to her ear and heard Xing Xiaochu calling "sister" anxiously. Then there was a "bang" sound, as if the phone fell to the ground, which woke Qi Ying up suddenly.
She sat up from the bed, glanced at her phone and found that it was indeed Xing Xiaochu calling. After two hellos and no one answered, Qi Ying knew that the situation was not good!
Qi Ying immediately jumped off the bed, grabbed a coat and put it on, then opened the game.
As soon as she entered the game, Qi Ying found herself at her doorstep. She immediately opened the door and looked around the house but couldn't find Xing Xiaochu. Finally, she discovered that a pair of shoes that Xing Xiaochu often wore was missing at the entrance, so she knew that she must have gone out.
Suddenly, Qi Ying broke out in a cold sweat.
It was the dead of night. What was Xing Xiaochu, a little kid, doing out in the middle of the night?
Qi Ying hurried downstairs, and the game seemed to have telepathically sent a notification -
'bite--'
[Hello dear designer, your Xiaochu is in some trouble in the alley opposite Xiaonanmen, go and help her~]
Qi Ying frowned and ran away without saying a word.
What a broken system! How come it acts as if it doesn’t care when Xing Xiaochu is in trouble? There’s even a wavy line!
Qi Ying even wanted to wave it!
There were no cars on the road in the second half of the night, so Qi Ying simply climbed over the guardrail and ran to the opposite alley. From a distance, he saw Xing Xiaochu being surrounded by two people. The three of them were pushing and shoving each other, and he became angry.
"What are you doing!" Qi Ying shouted at the people over there.
The two drunks turned around and looked at Qi Ying with bewilderment. They only saw clearly when Qi Ying rushed to the place. No wonder the system said that Xing Xiaochu encountered some "little trouble" in the alley.
“Meow—meow—meow—”
Xing Xiaochu was holding a palm-sized kitten in her arms. The kitten was crying in fear. Xing Xiaochu also looked up at Qi Ying and called her "sister" in a low voice.
Drunk No. 1 turned around and said to the kitten, "Stop meowing... Look, someone is taking you home... Hiccup."
Drunkard No. 2 said: "Kittens...kittens should be raised by girls...hiccups, little girl, you must accept the kitten...you must accept it..."
Qi Ying: “…”
She pushed the two of them aside, pulled Xing Xiaochu aside, frowned and asked her, "What's going on?"
Xing Xiaochu held the kitten in his arms, not knowing how to explain.
That was how it was then.
Xing Xiaochu made a phone call and called her sister in panic, but she accidentally kicked some debris nearby and fell, and her phone flew out and broke.
The two drunkards behind her came over. Xing Xiaochu was frightened and curled up, not daring to move. Drunkard No. 1 had red cheeks and unzipped his jacket with an obscene smile. Xing Xiaochu closed her eyes in fear, but the next second she heard a cat's meow, and then a warm little thing was pressed against her face.
Then the two drunkards pushed and shoved Xing Xiaochu to accept the kitten.
Qi Ying was also stunned after hearing this. She lowered her head to look at the little kitten curled up in Xing Xiaochu's arms. The kitten looked to be about two months old, which was the age for weaning. Its fur was soft, and its little orange tail was standing upright, and it meowed vigilantly.
Qi Ying wanted to reach out and touch its little head, but the little kitten still greeted her in a baby voice.
Very cute.
Two drunks came up again.
Drunk No. 1 said: "Its mother is a cream cat."
Drunk No. 2 said: "It's in the bar next door. Hiccup... We stole it."
Drunkard No. 1 said again: "Shh, don't tell its mother, its mother is super fierce..."
Drunkard No. 2 laughed so hard that he hiccupped, and said to Xing Xiaochu: "Kittens, hehe, kittens should be raised by little girls, hehehe...hiccup."
Qi Ying: “…”
Qi Ying wordlessly separated the two drunkards from Xing Xiaochu and said to them coldly, "Get lost."
The two drunkards were not angry. They walked away arm in arm, leaving only Qi Ying and Xing Xiaochu in the alley, as well as the meowing little orange cat in her arms.
Xing Xiaochu lowered her head to comfort the kitten, and the kitten clung to her chest and tried to get into her arms. Xing Xiaochu timidly looked up at Qi Ying, and while comforting the kitten, she whispered to her, "Sister, I'm sorry... I've caused you trouble again..."
