In the restaurant.
Uncle Xie's meticulously prepared cat food was so good it could be mistaken for human food. From the ingredients to the seasonings, this one meal was worth more than Bai Li's monthly salary.
"Meow meow".
Thank you.
Before the meal, Bai Li, as usual, offered a polite thank you and a grateful nuzzle.
Uncle Xie stroked the kitten's head, his face glowing with cuteness, feeling that the cat food was definitely worth the money.
A meal for the cat, and one kitten will rub against you willingly.
Great deal!
Bai Li lowered her head, ate a few bites of cat food, and then drank a few sips of water. The water Xie Chen drank was a different kind, priced at 2400 yuan a bottle on the official website, more expensive than the water used to make the cat food.
"Lili, I've read the contract."
A dinner was also placed in front of Xie Chen, but it consisted of vegetables and a simple meat dish.
He is very strict about his physique. In addition to paying attention to his diet, he also spends two hours a day in his home gym.
When Bai Li heard him mention the contract, she quickly looked up at him.
"I have signed in the guardian section."
Xie Chen said calmly, "Later, when you need to sign, put your paw print on the place."
"Meow!"
OK!
After agreeing, Bai Li lowered her head and continued to rummage through the cat food.
Xie Chen finished his meal in a few bites, and then casually asked Bai Li, "Lili, do you want to come work for me?"
Previously, he didn't feel any reluctance to let go of the little kitten he picked up from the roadside.
The kitten is special; it can understand its own meows.
The kitten was also very cute, just the way he liked it.
For these two reasons, he reciprocated with a bit of goodwill.
That little bit of kindness wasn't enough to support him in doing many good deeds before.
Things are different now.
Having experienced the kitten's disappearance, its live-streamed plea for help, and its getting lost after crawling into a cardboard box, Xie Chen, who rushed to rescue the kitten each time, has come to a clear understanding that he wants to raise this kitten well.
"Meow."
Sir, I have a job now.
Bai Li reminded him that one cat cannot do the work of two people.
Bai Li works as a seafood deliveryman and the pay is very good, so she doesn't want to change jobs for the time being.
Xie Chen slowly wiped his hands with a wet wipe: "You'll be my doorman, and I'll pay you ten thousand a month."
The basic salary in the seafood restaurant contract was less than 10,000 yuan a month, and he didn't add too much, afraid that the little guy would think it was outrageous.
"don't want."
Bai Li still refused. He tilted his head, looked at Xie Chen with his beautiful amber eyes, and meowed, "Sir, you don't need me to work for you."
The security guards at the entrance are all very capable people, and they clearly don't lack manpower.
Xie Chen thought of a few other jobs, but Bai Li wasn't stupid.
What he needs is a job, not the job that his husband sets out for him.
While refusing Xie Chen's advances, Bai Li finished his meal completely and gulped down his water. Finally, he climbed into Xie Chen's lap and sat down.
"The job at the seafood shop is good enough, I'll take this one."
Bai Li meowed, "Sir, I'd like to leave my paw print."
"good."
Xie Chen used his own inkpad to have him press his claws on it. After that, Xie Chen, on a whim, had him press a few more marks on his calligraphy as well.
Xie Chen has a habit of practicing calligraphy, and his calligraphy is widely recognized as excellent.
Night falls.
Bai Li, who loves cleanliness, was taking a bath in a tub, while Xie Chen casually posted a few photos on Weibo.
He has many followers on Weibo, but he posts very little, especially daily updates, which he rarely posts.
Countless die-hard fans are screaming in the supertopic, hoping that their missing idol will come back to life.
That day, their howling actually reached its target!
"Aww, my brother posted an update!"
"Oh! Class representative, please summarize what the meaning of my brother's post is?!"
"Report! The class representative is here. He's ranked number one in my brother's comments. Go check it out!"
[Xie Chen V: Show off.]
[Photos of calligraphy characters with cat paw prints x3]
The number of comments under this Weibo post has increased dramatically.
The top comment: Research complete. This calligraphy guy posted it before, and now he's posting it again. Why else? Just look at the claw marks on it.
After being reminded, everyone noticed the light-colored cat paw prints.
In the super topic, the long-time fans were a bit confused.
"That can't be right. My brother used to hate it when people touched his writing. I remember him saying that he really disliked that kind of behavior..."
“I also remember that once when my brother was on a show, his calligraphy was dirtied by a cute pet on the show. His calligraphy was taken away on the spot, and he didn’t even want it himself.”
Given all of the above, fans are already very impressed with the cat that dared to step on the character "brother" with its paws, even though they haven't seen its face yet.
This cat must be something special!
While taking a bath, Bai Li was completely unaware that her claw marks had been seen and discussed by many people.
For example, he had no idea that Xie Chen was an absolute superstar in the music industry.
All he knew was that the man was a good person, rich, and good-looking.
I've taken a shower.
Bai Li looked at the cat bed on the bed, a little hesitant. He tugged at Xie Chen's hand, his wet eyes fixed on Xie Chen, and meowed, "Sir, will the cat bed stay on the bed from now on?"
"Um."
Xie Chen took his pajamas and patted his hairy head: "You go to sleep first, I'm going to take a shower."
Bai Li certainly wouldn't go to sleep first; he still needed to stay by his master's side so that his master could get a good night's sleep.
Fortunately, Bai Li always runs to Xie Chen's place at night, so the cats sleeping comfortably in the cardboard boxes under the overpass are not worried about their big brother at all.
After an unknown amount of time, Xie Chen turned on the bedside lamp to its dimmest setting.
"good evening."
He looked at the cat bed right next to him and whispered to the little kitten lying in it.
"Meow."
good evening.
Bai Li pretended to close her eyes, but after a moment, she secretly opened them again.
Black mist would gather in Xie Chen's room late at night, swirling around him and preventing him from getting a good night's sleep.
With Bai Li around, the black mist can no longer affect you, sir.
For Xie Chen, this night was undoubtedly another good dream.
The next day.
Bai Li ate another luxurious cat meal at the villa before taking the contract and her husband, who was coming along, to the seafood restaurant.
The seafood restaurant owner's face lit up with joy when he saw Bai Li.
"You've arrived."
He looked up and saw the man wearing sunglasses following behind Bai Li.
"Hey, you look familiar? Are you Bai Li's guardian?"
Xie Chen took off his sunglasses, revealing his handsome face, and said calmly, "Hello."
boss:"???"
The boss looked bewildered: "Holy crap, you look exactly like a perfect replica of Xie Chen."
Xie Chen: "..."
Xie Chen greeted her fully: "I am Xie Chen, Lili's guardian."
Boss: "Huh?"
The boss was shocked again: "Holy crap, it's not a high-quality fake."
The seafood vendor never expected that Xie Chen would walk into his shop.
Xie Chen never expected that Lili's boss was actually his biggest fan, a die-hard fan.
"Ten years ago, when you first debuted, I loved listening to you sing."
I'll go to every one of your concerts!
With Xie Chen's reputation established, the boss glanced at Bai Li and immediately decided that Bai Li would deliver the lightest goods from now on.
"I'm entrusting Lili to your care."
Xie Chen left Bai Li there and said goodbye to the boss.
The boss watched Xie Chen walk away, still marveling, "I never thought I'd actually be able to meet my idol in my lifetime."
He looked down at Bai Li and said, "You're such a lucky charm."
To express his gratitude for the lucky bag, the boss asked him to deliver the first order from the nearest nearby shop.
"You only need ten orders a day."
The shopkeeper put the two packaged shrimp into a bag and tied it to Bai Li's back.
It's not heavy; compared to a trailer, it's especially easy to move.
"Go ahead," the boss said with a smile.
Bai Li also took the order form with the address written on it, and with her short legs, she started delivering the goods.
Bai Li delivered three orders in the morning, and had a break from 1 to 2 pm.
He took advantage of this time and ran to the bottom of the overpass.
"Meimei, Diandian, Dahui."
Bai Li solemnly convened a meeting of the cats: "I now have a really good job, and from now on, you won't have to collect scraps anymore."
"Once you get your salaries, I'll take you to rent a big house."
When it comes to renting a house, Bai Li has another idea: he wants to rent one near his husband's house.
"Big brother."
Meimei, who often works with Bai Li, said, "I also want to work."
“I want to make money. Last time, many stray cats were kidnapped by bad people. Some of them don’t even have enough to eat. Winter is coming soon. They said that many cats freeze to death every year.”
"I want to earn money to buy cat beds and cat food for cats that can't take care of themselves, just like you take care of me and Dian Dian and Da Hui."
In the eyes of most humans, a cat's life is worthless.
Many people are interested in keeping a cat, but if something unexpected happens, such as the cat getting sick, or if they have to move and can't take the cat with them, they often say they resort to the simplest and most brutal solution—
The cat was lost.
Every year, countless pet cats are abandoned.
This city is vast, capable of holding countless people. Yet, it also seems so small, unable to accommodate even a sick, abandoned cat.
"I'll send you there for a few days first, and then I'll recommend you to the boss."
Bai Li admires independent and self-reliant cats.
In people's minds, cats are just pets, little toys.
But cats that are left unattended need to work very hard to survive.
Seeing that her older brother agreed, Meimei nodded.
Before I knew it, it was past one o'clock again.
When Bai Li went to deliver goods, he took Mei Mei with him so that Mei Mei could help him get familiar with the business.
He didn't carry anything heavy, and the boss took good care of him, trying to let him deliver orders that were nearby.
While delivering their last order, they also encountered Brother Black Feet Cat.
The three cats walked and talked.
"Hey Blackie, don't you have to work every day?"
"No need, I'll collect protection money," Black-footed Cat said. "A kitten like you doesn't need to pay me protection money anymore."
They were too young, and life wasn't easy for them.
Bai Li nodded happily. After nodding, he asked Black Feet Cat Brother, "Brother Black, if I get bullied and don't pay the protection fee, will you help me?"
"meeting."
Black-footed Cat Brother affirmed, "All the cats in this area are under my protection."
No sooner had Black-Foot Cat Brother finished speaking than, coincidentally, the person receiving Bai Li's seafood delivery opened the door.
Their eyes met, and Bai Li stared wide-eyed at the person who came to collect the goods.
The kiln owner didn't expect to see Bai Li either. He looked down and met the gaze of the little kitten carrying something on its back. He was silent for a few seconds.
"You changed jobs."
The unscrupulous brickyard owner spoke to him calmly, then squatted down to take something.
"I just ordered a fish, is that what you were carrying on your back?"
Bai Li reflexively took two steps back, her round eyes filled with resentment.
Although his memory is poor, he still remembers the grudge that the unscrupulous kiln owner owed him wages!
I've been taking pictures of paws for so many days, but I haven't found anything!
"Meow!!!"
Black guy!
Bai Li turned her head and loudly complained, "I work for him, but he doesn't pay me and he even kicks me."
"That kick really hurt."
Black-footed Cat narrowed his eyes, his sharp gaze locking onto the ruthless boss's face.
"Meow?"
You're pretty bold, aren't you? You dare to touch my kittens on my turf?
This shows they don't take him, this black-footed cat from another continent, seriously.
With the fierce and naturally combat-oriented cat brother protecting her, even the little kitten Bai Li dared to raise her head and howl fiercely at the heartless boss.
