Seeing Yu Chaoxi's guilty look and her reluctance to look at him, Huo Linyuan felt both helpless and amused.
"You weren't afraid of water when I bathed you before? Why are you so brave today?"
The hot water switch was on the wall, and the bath towels were originally hanging on the rack. Huo Linyuan could already imagine the cat doing parkour in the bathroom.
Yu Chaoxi lay listlessly in his arms, burying her head in his suit jacket, pretending not to hear.
Huo Linyuan couldn't do anything about her. He gave her a few words of reprimand, then took a dry towel to wipe her body, then used a hairdryer to dry her hair, and finally checked the places where her hair had been plucked.
"Sweetie, does it still hurt?"
Yu Chaoxi nestled in his arms, acting pitifully and coquettishly. Her round, brown cat-like eyes drooped down into semicircles, making Huo Linyuan's heart soften.
Huo Linyuan felt that Yu Chaoxi had only scratched Qiu Wanzhen with her claws today, which was too easy for her.
"Next time someone bullies you, bite them with your teeth. You even bully me with your teeth, so why don't you know how to fight back when it comes to other people?"
Huo Linyuan used two fingers to pry open her mouth, rubbed her little sharp teeth, and gestured for her to bite with that spot.
Yu Chaoxi let out a howl and bit his index finger, pretending to rub it fiercely. She rubbed it on the left and then on the right. When Huo Linyuan took it out to look, the damage was zero.
He couldn't help but chuckle. "Fine, next time you can just use your claws to scratch."
After retrieving the documents, he took Yu Chaoxi directly to the company.
Almost every other day thereafter, a white plush toy would appear on the floor where the president's office was located, strolling around with elegant cat-like steps.
The secretaries in the secretariat all recognized it as the cat from the official account, and they all transformed into loving aunties and uncles, feeding Yu Chaoxi snacks and fruits.
Every time Yu Chaoxi went out for a stroll, she would always bring back all sorts of things.
...
The Huo family's old residence.
Qiu Wanzhen was crying to Old Madam Huo, "Old Madam, Mr. Huo won't take me in. He had Aunt Chen kick me out."
"And look at what Mr. Huo's cat has done to me."
Old Madam Huo was extremely disappointed in Qiu Wanzhen. She had sent Qiu Wanzhen to Lanyue Bay, but she was kicked out without even seeing Lin Yuan, and was even bullied like this by a cat.
Ultimately, it comes down to her lack of ability.
However, Madam Huo still didn't want to give up on her and decided to create a few more opportunities to help her.
"Alright, the Qin family matriarch will be celebrating her birthday in half a month. President Qin and Lin Yuan are good friends, and our whole family will be attending the banquet. I'll bring you along, so you'd better live up to my expectations."
Qiu Wanzhen nodded quickly.
Meanwhile, Yu Chaoxi also recalled an important plot point from the book: half a month later, at Old Madam Qin's birthday banquet, Huo Linyuan was drugged and almost lost his chastity. From then on, he kept his distance from women.
Cat thought for a moment and realized she could use this situation to strengthen their relationship. But what if, after a while, Huo Linyuan actually started treating her like a pet?
Of course, the most important thing was how to persuade Huo Linyuan to take her to the banquet.
On the day of the banquet at the Qin family, Yu Chaoxi used all her acting skills, acting cute and charming, following Huo Linyuan like a little tail, and if he still didn't allow it, she would cry, make a scene, and throw a tantrum.
Huo Linyuan was about to get into the car and leave when a certain disobedient little cat tried to climb into the car with him.
Aunt Chen felt a pang of sympathy. "Sir, why don't you take her with you? I think she's usually very well-behaved and won't cause any trouble in the Qin family."
"Meow!" Yes, I'm very well-behaved!
Left with no other choice, he had to take the cat with him when he set off for the Qin family.
Today is Madam Qin's sixtieth birthday, and Qin Heng, the president of the Qin Group, is hosting a birthday banquet at the Qin family's old residence. The Qin family holds a high position, and it's no surprise that families with close ties to the Qin family will send representatives to attend Madam Qin's birthday celebration. Many people in Beijing are hoping to use this banquet to get to know the Qin and Huo families, these top figures in Beijing's social circle, so there are quite a few attendees.
When Huo Linyuan arrived, the rest of the Huo family had already arrived.
Qiu Wanzhen, who was accompanying Old Madam Huo, had her eyes glued to Huo Linyuan the moment he entered the room.
She had only seen President Huo from afar before, but today was the first time she had seen him up close. Huo Linyuan was even more handsome than she had imagined, and Qiu Wanzhen couldn't wait to go up and make her presence known.
Old Madam Huo stopped her, smiling as she said, "Haste makes waste."
Both of her sons inherited the best features of both her and Mr. Huo, and are handsome. Mrs. Huo had several lovers when she was young and was almost never single, so she felt that her second son's lack of interest in women was entirely due to his lack of experience with romantic relationships.
Now that she and Mr. Huo are getting older, they've settled down and broken up with most of their lovers. They just want a grandson to play with, but Jincheng is already all grown up. So she's set her sights on her second son, who is still unmarried.
Old Madam Huo took out a packet of medicine from her bag and quietly handed it to Qiu Wanzhen. "Wanzhen, you are the daughter-in-law I have my eye on. Lin Yuan is just a blockhead. You have to take the initiative for you two to have a chance."
"In a little while, secretly put it in the wine glass and have the waiter bring it to Lin Yuan. I've booked a hotel near the Qin family's place. Don't let me down after that."
Qiu Wanzhen's heart raced. Did Old Madam Huo mean that she and President Huo should have sex?
Soon, as if she had made up her mind, she took the medicine packet from Madam Huo's hand.
All of this was broadcast to Yu Chaoxi by the system.
