"Thank you." After politely thanking her, Qiao Zhen left with her suitcase.
Seeing Xu Li staring intently at Qiao Zhen's retreating figure, Yu Kewei shook Xu Li's arm. "Ali, weren't we going for a walk?"
Xu Li pushed Yu Kewei's arm away, saying, "I like her. It's best if we keep our distance from now on." Then he chased after Qiao Zhen's retreating figure.
Yu Kewei frowned as she watched Xu Li chase after Qiao Zhen. Her hands clenched into fists at her sides before she turned and left. She absolutely, absolutely, absolutely could not give up on Xu Li!
Qiao Zhen heard hurried footsteps behind her, stopped and turned around, "Mr. Xu?"
Xu Li grasped Qiao Zhen's wrist and asked with some anticipation, "Is our relationship more than just that of sugar daddy and mistress?"
Qiao Zhen shook her head. The slight gleam in Xu Li's eyes shattered his expectations. "Everyone knows we were boyfriend and girlfriend, but we broke up several months ago. If you don't have anything else, can you let go? I'm busy cleaning today."
"I'll help you hire temporary workers."
Xu Liqiang wrapped his strong arms around Qiao Zhen's waist, picked up her suitcase with his other hand, and forcibly took her away. He said in an unquestionable tone, "No matter who your sugar daddy is, dump him and be my girlfriend."
Poverty limited her approach to things, and Qiao Zhen pretended to refuse, saying, "No, I really can't refuse this."
Xu Li's expression didn't change at all. He was powerful and influential, and he could criticize anyone in a matter of minutes. "Since you won't push him, I'll let him push you instead."
Qiao Zhen's expression was somewhat serious. "She can't push me away either."
Xu Li led Qiao Zhen into his villa, then personally placed all of Qiao Zhen's luggage in his bedroom before going out to have his assistant bring over some daily necessities. He also asked his assistant to check the owner of the villa two doors down to his right.
"I'm going to the pet store to buy a cat." Qiao Zhen came out of the bathroom and saw Xu Li, who had just put down the landline. She said jokingly, "This is a democratic society now, you're not going to restrict my personal freedom, are you?"
Xu Li looked at Qiao Zhen thoughtfully, considering the pros and cons of restricting Qiao Zhen's personal safety.
Qiao Zhen looked at Xu Li's serious expression and said, "Hey, are you serious? I was just joking. Can you not take it seriously? If you don't take it seriously, I can pretend to get along with you peacefully."
“Okay.” Xu Li immediately suppressed that thought, picked up his car keys, and took Qiao Zhen to the pet store.
Qiao Zhen looked at the Corgi's chubby little butt and couldn't move her feet, but she didn't have the patience to take care of this little cutie. Besides, she bought the cat to give Chu Chu a body to be reincarnated.
Her main problem was that she felt resentful. Both Chu Chu and she had been dragged into this mission by Xiao Ling and the other systems, so was it really so wrong for her to be so sarcastic towards Xiao Ling?! Okay, it was, but that couldn't be a reason for Chu Chu to comfort Xiao Ling instead of comforting her!
"I want a cat! Preferably a little orange tabby." Qiao Zhen said firmly, her mind looking at the trembling Chu Chu, feeling extremely relieved. "Also, cat food, cat litter, cage, money is not a problem, it has to be the most suitable for it."
Qiao Zhen finally sat in the passenger seat of Xu Li's car, holding the kitten. "It would be best to build it a toilet, a pool, a cat bed, and a small blanket."
"They'll all be there." Xu Li watched as Qiao Zhen placed the kitten on her lap, and he felt a pang of jealousy. He silently shifted his gaze to the car window, feeling rather uneasy.
Qiao Zhen assumed that Xu Li was impatient because she was making too many demands, so she didn't say anything and just lowered her head to tease the kitten.
Qiao Zhen: [Chu Chu, isn't this little orange kitten adorable?]
Chu Chu: [qaq Yes...yes.]
Xiao Ling: [Is being weak, helpless, and pitiful what you humans consider cute?]
Qiao Zhen: [Please be careful with your grammar. I'm a fairy, and whether you're a fairy or a human, everyone has different things that make them cute, and fluffy and chubby is what most people find cute. Also, please don't change the subject. I was just asking Chu Chu why she was being so evasive. I'm so sad, sob sob ╥﹏╥]
Chu Chu: [I'm so scared, waaaaah... tears streaming down my face.JPG]
Qiao Zhen: [Don't be afraid, Xiao Ling is here to share your joys and sorrows, okay? Otherwise, I really don't know what else I might do.]
Xiao Ling: [You immortals are truly despicable!]
Qiao Zhen: [Five emoticons upside down.]
Little Zero looked at the five emoticons that had disappeared from its emoticon library and burst into tears.
Qiao Zhen blocked her senses from them. She lovingly carried the little orange kitten to Xu Li's villa. She lifted the kitten's front paws and waved to Xu Li, "Thank you for taking me in, Major General Xu."
Xu Li looked at the woman and the cat, and found the little kitten being held in the woman's arms extremely annoying. He suppressed the strange thoughts in his heart without showing any emotion, and said, "My room is for you only."
"It's okay, I can sleep in the guest room with Little Chrysanthemum." Qiao Zhen took the bags from Xu Li and then placed the cat bed in a corner of the guest room.
That evening, Qiao Zhen played with Xiao Juhua in the living room, while Xu Li looked at the messages sent by his assistant in the study.
The villa that Qiao Zhen mentioned belongs to Qiao Zhen herself, and she hasn't had any intimate contact with any men recently, the closest one being Fan Zhou.
So Qiao Zhen's sugar daddy is a non-existent person. Xu Li felt very happy when he learned this news. He picked up the phone he took out of the drawer yesterday, opened the blog, and secretly decided to fight to the death with Qiao Zhen's haters.
