Daniel couldn't understand what the kitten was meowing, but he could understand what Xie Chen was saying.
"Thank you, you have excellent taste."
Daniel showered him with compliments, saying, "The watch you're referring to is from the Big Bang series. This watch is set with 1280 diamonds. 1280 diamonds, thank you. You should know that the quality is quite excellent."
Bai Li, sitting in Xie Chen's lap, tried to process Daniel's introduction.
After a while.
Bai Li still didn't understand what the Big Bang was. Not wanting to appear ignorant in front of his teacher, he pretended to understand and nodded, saying, "Meow."
Wrap it up.
Xie Chen stroked the kitten's soft fur and casually said to Daniel, "How much? I'll take it."
"I bought it for 72.56 million back then. This watch has collectible value. I'm offering you 80 million. Isn't that excessive?"
Bai Li: "..."
Bai Li was stunned: "Meow?"
How many?
Daniel ignored the kitten's meows and instead smiled at Xie, repeating the price: "Eighty million, Xie. You shouldn't be short of that amount of money."
Eighty million.
This time, Bai Li heard it clearly.
He was completely stunned; his previously surging emotions deflated like a balloon suddenly punctured.
"Smack."
The balloon exploded.
The cat is gone.
"Meow, meow."
Bai Li looked down and counted the eighty million units on her paws. When she looked up again, her beautiful amber eyes were filled with despair.
I don't have 80 million.
After working for a month, the boss only paid me eight thousand yuan.
The kitten's meows were tinged with a hint of crying, and its eyes were filled with tears.
Xie Chen's throat tightened. His wicked intention to tease the kitten was instantly replaced by regret after hearing the kitten whimper.
"cough."
They've gone too far again.
He cleared his throat, and just as patiently coaxing the cat as he had been earlier, he said, "Lili, are you sad? We were just joking with you. This watch is worth eighty million."
Bai Li, who felt like a useless cat who couldn't afford a watch, looked at Xie Chen with teary eyes: "Meow?"
Really?
"real."
Xie Chen was already quite adept at conning the cat: "Nobody wants this watch. Look, he's put a lot of watches here, hasn't he? He put so many because they're hard to sell."
"Thank you, I—"
Daniel listened in disbelief as Xie Chen said no one wanted his watch, and was about to refute him.
These watches are all priceless and unavailable; he's hoarding them and won't easily sell them unless the price is high enough...
How did it come to Xie Chen's mouth and become "can't be sold?"
Xie Chen, who was comforting the cat, glanced coldly at Daniel.
Daniel shut up: "Fine, I won't say anything more."
He saw a blatant threat in Xie Chen's eyes!
Daniel, forced to remain silent, stood with his arms crossed, watching as the usually aloof Xie now coaxed the cat in a soft voice.
Tsk.
That's really strange.
Daniel almost wanted to record this scene and show it to those who were wary of Xie.
Bai Li was unusually cautious about Xie Chen's words.
Are you lying to the cat?
Bai Li tilted her head back and said to Xie Chen with a broken heart, "This watch is so shiny, it might really be expensive."
"Not expensive."
While Xie Chen was comforting the cat, his gaze inadvertently fell on his ring.
"Look, isn't my ring sparkly too? This one isn't expensive."
"Three yuan."
Bai Li sniffed and reached out a paw to touch the ring she had bought.
Xie Chen: "?"
Xie Chen was stunned for a moment. After a long while, he finally found his voice: "Lili, what did you just say?"
Bai Li lowered her head, her meows still carrying a hint of sadness, but she still honestly answered the gentleman's question, "A sparkly ring, three yuan."
Xie Chen had many guesses about this rough, low-quality ring that he couldn't even take off.
Among these speculations, he also wondered if the little kitten in his arms was a purchased item.
But then I thought it was unlikely. The kitten was busy working, why would he give him a ring?
The case is now solved.
He calculated when the ring appeared; at that time, the kitten hadn't yet been brought back by him.
Bai Li, who only buys five-cent steamed buns, bought him a three-dollar ring.
"Stupid Lili."
Xie Chen had received countless gifts since childhood, and none of them were cheap.
This ring was, without a doubt, the cheapest and lowest quality gift he had ever received.
But Xie Chen felt that this was the best gift he had ever received.
Since his parents disappeared, Xie Chen's heart, hardened by being surrounded by wolves, was now willing to melt away to create a warm little world.
In their little world lived a tiny, snow-white kitten, no bigger than the palm of your hand.
Cute and innocent, she seduced him, making him want to possess her forever.
"Meow."
Bai Li, who was inexplicably called stupid, retorted unhappily, "I'm not stupid."
He just sometimes has a bad memory and often forgets things, but he's not stupid.
Xie Chen lowered his head, forehead to forehead with his, his tone deep and pleasant, carrying a hint of indulgence: "Hmm, Lili isn't stupid, it's me who's stupid."
I was too slow to realize right away that the ring was a gift from the little guy.
Xie Chen was truly patient and quite adept at coaxing cats.
"Lili, a sparkly ring only costs three yuan. How much do you think a sparkly watch would cost?"
With this comparison, Bai Li finally began to believe it a little: a sparkly watch might not be so expensive after all.
"Three, thirty yuan?"
Bai Li boldly revealed a figure: he had never researched any high-end, limited-edition collectible watches; his knowledge was limited to the watches sold at night market stalls.
The watches there are very affordable.
"Lili is great."
Xie Chen blatantly lied: "I guessed it right away."
“Daniel, give me this watch for thirty dollars, my cat will pay.”
Daniel: "???"
You're dreaming.
Just as Daniel was about to call the police to report a robbery, he caught a glimpse of Xie Chen's gaze out of the corner of his eye, and his lips twitched.
"Okay, okay, okay, thirty yuan."
Daniel glanced at the kitten in Xie Chen's arms, pulled out a hundred-yuan bill with his paw, and meowed at him.
"give change."
Xie Chen served as the translator.
What else could Daniel do but give her seventy dollars in change?
After getting his change back and secretly taking a bank card from Xie Chen, Daniel couldn't help but complain, "Xie, is this how rich people play?"
Bargain the price and get the cat to pay.
Anyone unaware of the situation might have thought Xie was communicating with the cat.
Xie Chen impatiently lifted his eyelids, and the latter took out his watch and immediately fell silent.
"It's so beautiful."
Bai Li liked sparkly things. He touched the watch face and the diamonds on the watch body with his paws and said happily, "I gave it to you, sir."
"Yes, Lili gave it to me."
Xie Chen put on the watch, replacing his original watch, which was also worth millions.
Bai Li looked at Xie Chen's wrist, then at the sparkling watch, and thought it matched perfectly.
After buying the watch, Daniel gave Xie Chen the Cat Brand wearable phone.
The phone looked like a cat's wristband, with a high-tech projection screen. The virtual projection screen was magnified in front of the cat, and if the cat wanted to use the functions, it only needed to extend its paw and operate it on the virtual screen.
Xie Chen put the phone on Bai Li's front paw and helped him familiarize himself with its functions.
"This is the dial button. My phone number is saved here. Lili, please press it."
Bai Li tentatively tapped the dial button.
The next second, Xie Chen's phone rang.
After testing the call button, there are other software apps as well.
"This is WeChat."
Xie Chen registered a new WeChat account for Bai Lixin, and the account only had himself on it.
"Open WeChat, and you can chat with me by text, voice, or video."
One function after another, comparable to a normal smartphone, no, this is far more powerful than a smartphone.
Because, what Bai Li herself didn't know was that her phone also had location and tracking functions installed.
Under Xie Chen's guidance, Bai Li became familiar with all the apps.
Finally, at Bai Li's request, Xie Chen also added Tan Yi's phone number and WeChat account to his contacts.
"gentlemen."
Bai Li clung to the phone, even happier than if she'd received her salary: "With this, can I call you anytime?"
"Um."
Xie Chen took out his phone and was adding a new name to Bai Li's WeChat contact.
"You can call me anytime in the future."
Bai Li saw him typing and quickly went over to take a look. He could read and understand what Xie Chen was writing.
【Lili】
Xie Chen's note for him.
Bai Li patted Xie Chen's wrist and looked at him expectantly.
"Sir, add a heart after Lili."
Bai Li had just filled in Xie Chen's name in her notes, which was "[Li Li's Mr.]" followed by a heart.
Xie Chen raised an eyebrow. After reading Bai Li's note, he filled in a new one that echoed Bai Li's.
【先?先生的漓漓】 is followed by a red heart.
After changing the nickname, Bai Li even made sure her profile picture was the same as Xie Chen's.
Xie Chen's current profile picture is a landscape photo he just took.
Such a landscape picture is not suitable as a WeChat profile picture for a little one; it seems too dull.
Xie pondered for a moment and then came up with an idea.
He has quite a few photos of Bai Li, as well as various photos of kittens working, all of them cute and lovable.
Xie Chen didn't use the photos of the kitten working; instead, he picked up Bai Li and took two pictures on the spot.
In the photo, only Xie Chen's hand is visible, along with a kitten whose entire body is exposed.
In these two photos, the hand gestures haven't changed, but the kitten's pose has.
Xie Chen changed his profile picture to a new one and thought it looked pretty good.
Bai Li was also very happy.
"gentlemen."
He tilted his head back, his beautiful eyes filled with Xie Chen, and his meows carried a hint of smugness: "You used my picture as your profile picture, do you think I'm cute?"
A smile flickered in Xie Chen's eyes as he hugged the proud kitten to his chest: "Yes, Lili is very cute."
More lovable than anyone, everything, and everything he had ever met before.
Daniel doesn't understand human-cat interaction at all. He made money again today and is in a great mood.
Seeing that the two were about to leave, Daniel tried to persuade them to stay.
"Thanks, would you like to have dinner here? I can make you tomato and beef soup."
Xie Chen had no interest in the tomato and beef soup. He said indifferently, "No need."
Uncle Sher must have prepared a meal at home; Daniel's eating style doesn't suit him.
Not long ago.
The person and the cat got into the car and went home.
For the first time ever, Bai Li didn't sleep in the car; he was playing a game on his phone.
The game is called "Cut the Watermelon," and it was supposed to have ads, but Xie Chen spent money on it, so there are no ads at all.
Bai Li was so engrossed in slicing watermelons that she couldn't tear herself away. Even after returning to the villa and seeing Tan Yi, she was still reluctant to part with the game.
"Third Brother."
Bai Li saw Tan Yi appear at Mr. Xie's villa, jumped off Xie Chen, and went to find Tan Yi.
The conversation started uninvited, all because of my younger brother's WeChat friend request.
"Him? Where did he get his WeChat?"
Puzzled, Tan Yi let her younger brother climb onto her lap and looked up to ask Xie Chen.
"Third Brother, I have a cell phone!"
Before Xie Chen could answer, Bai Li raised his paw, showing off his phone to Tan Yi.
"You can make phone calls, use WeChat, play games, and browse the internet."
Bai Li was quite taken aback by her new phone.
After carefully examining the new phone, Tan Yi's heart skipped a beat.
"Lili, how much does this phone cost?"
This kind of high-tech gadget is considered a luxury item; buying it would cost a lot of money.
"Ten yuan."
Bai Li said in a crisp voice, "The gentleman said that this is something that others don't want, so I bought it for a very low price."
Tan Yi: "..."
How could someone else have lost this?
"Thank you, Mr. Xie."
Tan Yi turned her gaze to Xie Chen: "The thing Lili is wearing..."
"Others don't want it."
Xie Chen used the same excuse he used to fool the kitten to fool his brother.
But it's obvious that the kitten's brother isn't stupid.
"Name your price, and I'll transfer it to you." Tan Yi was clear-headed; he didn't want to owe Xie Chen any favors.
"Ten yuan."
Xie Chen said calmly, "Lili has already given it to me, so there's no need to pay again."
He didn't mention the real price, and it was unclear what he should offer in the short term.
Just as they were at an impasse, Uncle Xie came out and greeted them, "Sir, Lili, dinner is ready."
"Tanyi, why don't you stay too? We've made a lot for dinner, so let's all eat together and have a lively meal."
Tan Yi glanced at her younger brother on her lap and did not refuse.
He also wanted to personally taste what the Xie family's food tasted like, and why Lili loved it so much.
Half an hour passed.
Tan Yi, who had successfully eaten her fill, looked at her beloved younger brother, who was still focused on eating, and felt a pang of sadness.
No wonder my younger brother was reluctant to leave...
The Xie family's food is so delicious!
Of course, he was referring to his and Lili's meal. Xie Chen ate vegetables for dinner, which didn't look appetizing.
"Uncle Xie".
Tan Yi sincerely thanked Uncle Xie, saying, "Thank you for taking care of Lili. Also, your cooking is delicious."
Xie Bo chuckled and said, "I'm getting old, so I like to tinker with these things. If you like, you can come to our house for meals at mealtimes from now on."
Tan Yi shamelessly said, "Then I'll give you another living allowance."
Uncle Xie didn't need his living expenses, but seeing that he insisted, he let him be.
One day later.
Bai Li, being held by Tan Yi, waved her paw at Xie Chen: "Sir, I'm going out."
He had already arranged with his third brother that he would use these two days of his vacation to accompany him to work.
Xie Chen nodded, his expression unreadable.
Bai Li was a little reluctant to leave. What would happen if her husband couldn't sleep well at night after she left?
But Third Brother has already agreed, so he can't go back on his word.
The little kitten, filled with inner turmoil, lay on Tan Yi's shoulder as Tan Yi carried him away, watching Xie Chen until Xie Chen was completely out of sight before finally sitting back in Tan Yi's lap.
"Lili, we're going to be on a car ride for several hours. You can get some sleep."
Their destination was a filming location in a neighboring city. It would have been faster to take a plane, but Lili couldn't transform, so they would have to check her in as luggage if they flew.
Tan Yi doesn't have a private plane and doesn't accept his younger brother as baggage, so he had to choose to go by car.
Bai Li wasn't sleepy at all.
He looked out the car window at the scenery, worried that Meimei and the others might not be able to take good care of themselves, and also worried about his husband's sleep at night.
well.
I'm really worried.
To cheer up her younger brother, Tan Yi simply showed him an old film that had a particularly good reputation in the industry.
Halfway through the movie, the listless kitten suddenly perked up.
"Meow!"
The gentleman sang this interlude!
Tan Yi: "..."
I'm experiencing depression, and my younger brother is too clingy to strangers. What should I do?
