Bai Li's meows were incomprehensible to anyone present.
But they can understand when a kitten points to a cup and asks for water.
Those who had never seen Bai Li and Xie Chen before were gasping in shock.
Isn't this kitten going too far? It's one thing to sit on the boss's lap, but it also wants to use the boss's cup?
"Meow, meow meow."
Sir, would you like some water?
Bai Li tilted her head back, her beautiful amber eyes glistening with moisture, as if they were filled with a layer of water vapor, making one's heart inexplicably soften.
"boss."
Anna, being perceptive, noticed Bai Li wanted water and quickly said, "I'll go get some."
"No."
Xie Chen reached out and took his glass of water, which had just cooled to lukewarm, and placed it in front of Bai Li.
Bai Li was extremely thirsty. She pawed at Xie Chen's hand and lowered her head to drink.
After drinking half of the glass of water, Bai Li sat back on Xie Chen's lap and let out a long sigh of relief.
Xie Chen put the cup back, then handed the hand with the sparkly ring to Bai Li to play with. He looked up and continued talking about serious business with the people in front of him.
Bai Li couldn't understand those official matters.
He held Xie Chen's long, beautiful hand and played with it by scratching at it with his paws.
"Boss, the proposal has been submitted."
"Boss, the finance department discovered a discrepancy when calculating income and expenditure."
"Boss, our initial review of the advertisement is complete. We have a few time slots for it to be launched, and we need your approval."
In addition to reporting on his work, Xie Chen was also arranging tasks.
Bai Li nestled in his arms, playing while trying to understand what her teacher was saying.
After listening for a while, he raised his paw and rubbed his eyes.
I'm so sleepy.
The gentleman seemed to be hypnotized as he talked about business.
After an unknown amount of time, everyone in the office left, leaving only Anna.
Anna wore a gentle smile, especially when she looked at Bai Li, her eyes filled with affection.
"Boss, the guest list for tonight's yacht is here."
"When you take Lili there, be wary of these people; they are somewhat hostile towards you."
"And these few people have bad tempers; I suggest keeping Lili away from them."
"In addition, some guests brought children."
When Anna handed over the list, she also pointed out the details of each guest.
Xie Chen's gaze fell on the paper as he listened to Anna carefully recount the information.
"Lili, would you like to go on a yacht ride?"
He lowered his eyes and asked the kitten, who was still playing with the ring on his hand, "What? A yacht?"
The country bumpkin cat tilted its head back and asked blankly.
Xie Chen thought for a moment and then changed his words: "A big ship, a very beautiful big ship."
"I want to sit!"
Bai Li's eyes sparkled as she excitedly told Xie Chenmiao, "I know about big ships! My brother told me about them, and he said he would build me a big ship and put it in the lake behind the mountain so I can ride on it and paddle."
Hearing his tone, Xie Chen raised an eyebrow: "So Lili has been on a large ship before?"
Bai Li's excited meows froze instantly, and her expression visibly wilted.
After a few seconds of silence, the listless cat meowed softly, not very excited, "Never sat on it before."
"My elder brother went down the mountain before he finished building the boat."
After descending the mountain, he never saw his elder brother again, and his memories of him became increasingly hazy.
Seeing his downcast mood, Xie Chen reached out and patted his head.
"It's alright, we can take the big ship tonight."
Bai Li nodded, and suddenly stood up as Xie Chen patted her head.
He braced himself on Xie Chen's body with his paws and climbed up.
Seeing that he was struggling to climb, Xie Chen simply picked him up.
"What's wrong?"
Bai Li was held up so that he could face Xie Chen directly. He stretched out his paws, carefully hiding the sharp hooks, and used his soft paw pads to hug Xie Chen's face.
"gentlemen."
The kitten, suddenly touched by emotions, rubbed against Xie Chen's face, its meows filled with gratitude.
"It's so kind of you."
I took him on airplanes and big ships, and I packed him snacks every day.
Such a kind gentleman, Bai Li doesn't know how to repay him.
It seems like simply allowing my husband to get a good night's sleep each day is too little of a reward.
Bai Li considered this a minor act of gratitude, but if the butler knew, he would probably kneel down on the spot.
Before Bai Li arrived, Xie Chen's insomnia and emotional instability had become so severe that he had to receive emergency treatment from a private doctor on several occasions.
And there were also the bottles and jars of medicine that Bai Li had personally witnessed around Xie Chen...
It's fair to say that without Bai Li's quiet reassurance, Xie Chen would likely have already fallen into an uncontrollable situation.
Xie Chen listened to the little kitten giving out friend cards again, and he patiently accepted them, pinching the pink plum blossom-shaped paw pads, continuing to sit as the good guy in the little kitten's eyes.
"cough."
Anna watched as her usually aloof boss interacted so affectionately with this little kitten, and she felt like she was about to be blinded by the sweetness.
She cleared her throat, glanced at the time, and reminded him, "Boss, you can set off now."
"Okay, I understand."
Xie Chen placed the kitten, which seemed to be acting cute, on the table for the time being, prepared all the things he needed to take, and then left with the kitten.
You don't need to bring food; there's plenty of delicious food on the yacht. But you should bring your own snacks.
You need to bring a litter box and bags of cat litter.
Bring along probiotics that target gut health issues.
Xie Chen personally checked all of Bai Li's necessities before getting into the car.
They won't be back tonight; they'll be staying on the yacht. He has a private room on that yacht.
Night fell.
Having finished dealing with the matter of the meeting, Bai Liu didn't ride in Xie Chen's car this time, but went to Xie Chen's villa in person.
He sat down steadily on the ground, his sharp eyes fixed on the scene at the doorway.
Sitting here, he's certain he can stop Xie Chen from returning with his brother.
The autumn night was filled with a cool breeze. The gray-white kitten was a little bigger than Bai Li's body, but not by much.
He shook his fur, pretending he wasn't cold.
On the other end.
The car arrived at its destination. Before getting out of the car, Xie Chen had made preparations, wrapping the kitten in his arms tightly with a thick blanket the size of a towel, not letting a single gust of wind in.
The wind was gone, but Bai Li felt suffocated.
"Meow meow".
Sir, I can't breathe.
Bai Li was inside the blanket, struggling to stick her head out.
Xie Chen was worried that the kitten would get cold, but he also didn't want to suffocate it.
"Sweetie, we're coming right away."
Xie Chen spoke in a low voice, quickened his pace, and soon boarded the yacht.
There are many people on this yacht tonight; everyone who wants to board needs to bring a gold-embossed invitation.
Xie Chen doesn't need to.
His face is more useful than any invitation.
"Mr. Xie, please follow me this way."
There were professional service staff who attentively led the way.
"Meow, meow!"
Sir, I need some fresh air.
Bai Li is still relentlessly fighting for her freedom.
There was still wind on the yacht, but it disappeared once you entered the interior.
Xie Chen put the blanket away, finally allowing Bai Li to breathe freely.
"Sir, it smells good."
Bai Li sniffed and smelled the fragrance in the air.
Xie Chen hugged him and whispered, "Lili, look up."
Upon hearing this, Bai Li obediently looked out from Xie Chen's embrace.
He was stunned when he saw it.
"There are so many people."
The yacht had several more floors inside, and they were standing on the first floor. There were already quite a few people on the first floor. The women were all impeccably made up, and the men were all dressed in suits with smiles on their faces.
"Sir, what are we doing here?"
Bai Li tilted his head back and asked Xie Chen, puzzled. He had originally thought that when Xie Chen mentioned taking a large boat, he meant the kind that could be rowed.
But now that he's on board, he realizes that this kind of large ship can't be rowed.
"There's an auction here."
Xie Chen slowly explained to the kitten in his arms, "What are you talking about? It's an auction."
"I'm here to film something."
Bai Li paused for a few seconds, then nodded: "Let's take the picture then."
As long as she can be with her husband, Bai Li doesn't care where she is.
Besides the auction, there were other activities on the yacht. The auction was held at midnight and was hosted by a prominent foreign figure.
Although Xie Chen had to wait for the midnight show, he planned to take the kitten to see other exciting events as well.
In the past, he wouldn't have joined in such a commotion, but the little kitten in his arms was incredibly curious, its amber eyes constantly scanning him up and down.
"Sir, I want to walk by myself."
Bai Li likes to be held by his master, but his master has been holding him for a long time, and he's afraid of tiring his master out and making his master dislike him.
"You're too small to walk down by yourself."
Xie Chen refused his request. Such a tiny kitten would be invisible to the guests on the yacht if they didn't look down, if it were placed on the ground.
If you can't see it, you're more likely to step on or bump into it.
Bai Li couldn't get down, so she had no choice but to continue lying on Xie Chen's arm.
A while later.
On the platform in the center of the first floor of the yacht, stood a host.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is an honor to meet you all here tonight."
"To help everyone relax, I have a small activity for you to participate in."
The host smiled and explained the details of the activity: it was just a regular lucky draw, a small perk for everyone who came.
"Everyone can draw once from the raffle box."
"One first prize winner, two second prize winners, and three third prize winners."
This is an activity with little technical content. Those who are interested can try their luck, while those who are not can simply ignore it.
The kitten being held by Xie Chen was clearly very interested in the lottery.
"I want to draw!"
Bai Li held up his paws; as a country bumpkin cat, he had never played a lottery before.
Xie Chen naturally indulged his request.
Just as the lottery began, a phone call came in urgently. The caller was Anna.
Xie Chen understands Anna, and Anna personally arranged his schedule for tonight.
A phone call at this time can't possibly be about something trivial.
He picked up Bai Li and was about to walk out to answer Anna's phone call.
But as the lottery began, Bai Li stared intently at the lottery box, eager to draw a prize.
Xie Chen: "..."
Xie hesitated for a few seconds, but eventually gave in to the kitten's wet eyes.
"I'm going outside to take this call. I'll come find you in a bit. Be good."
Xie Chen handed the kitten to the bodyguard he had brought, instructing him to look after it.
The bodyguard had a face with a thick beard and a cold demeanor; he looked like a tough guy.
now.
The tough guy was holding a tiny kitten, barely the size of his palm, and he looked rather bewildered.
"Little kitten".
After Xie Chen left, the cold and tough man lowered his voice and nervously communicated with the kitten: "I...I'm a bit strong. If I hug you too tightly, just remember to meow once."
He had followed his husband all the way here, but he knew that the cat he was carrying was no ordinary cat; it was his husband's most precious and beloved feline.
He didn't dare to hurt him.
Bai Li blinked and patted the tough guy's hand reassuringly.
"Meow."
Don't worry, I'm very strong!
Outside, Xie Chen listened to Anna's report on the recent events at the company, a shadow of gloom crossing his eyes.
"Have the public relations department handle this overnight and suppress the news in the shortest possible time."
"Investigate, this data leak is definitely related to internal company issues..."
The two were discussing business on the phone.
Inside the yacht, Bai Li was being held by a bodyguard. Just as he was about to put his paw into the raffle box, a hand suddenly slapped his paw away.
"The people participating in the lottery are humans, what's a kitten doing here? Just for the fun?"
"Hey idiot, get out of my way with the cat, don't get in my way."
bodyguard:"?"
Can.
Such an arrogant idiot, he hadn't seen one in a long time.
