As soon as Xie Chen appeared, all of Bai Li's attention was focused on him.
He jumped off the long-haired man's lap and rushed to Xie Chen like a gust of wind.
Xie Chen bent down and scooped the kitten, which almost lost control, into his arms.
"good."
After only a short while, Xie Chen was surprised that the little guy was so clingy.
Bai Li rubbed against his palm, and upon seeing her master, she began meowing and told him everything that had just happened.
This behavior is also commonly known as filing a complaint.
After listening to Miaomiao's complaint, Xie Chen lowered his head and pinched Bai Li's paw.
"Does it hurt?"
Bai Li, with her paw being pinched, obediently replied, "It doesn't hurt, my paw is fine."
Aside from the slight pain when I was being filmed, I'm fine now.
Although he said he was fine, Xie Chen still held his hand tightly and kissed it.
The warm touch felt like an electric current, and Bai Li felt her claws go numb.
The interaction between the two people was observed by a drunk man not far away, who gave a self-deprecating laugh, turned around, and left.
Bai Li's bodyguard also stepped forward and repeated what Bai Li had already said.
Xie Chen's face was unreadable as he carried Bai Li into the yacht.
"Young Master Ma."
The men Ma Quanxing had sent out to catch the cat all returned to Ma Quanxing's side: "We couldn't catch that cat."
"What??!"
Ma Quanxing glared at his good-for-nothing lackey: "It's just a kitten, and you can't even catch one?"
"That kitten wasn't alone at all, and, Young Master Ma, we've also discovered something incredible."
"explain."
"The cat, the cat belongs to Xie Chen?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Quanxing, who had been in a fit of rage, went blank for a few seconds.
"You, you repeat what you just said."
The henchman gritted his teeth and repeated, "The cat belongs to Xie Chen?"
Less than a minute after they finished speaking, before Ma Quanxing could even process the news, Xie Chen, dressed in a suit and tie, slowly walked into the hall, carrying a snow-white kitten.
A round-headed kitten was perched on Xie Chen's arm; it was none other than the one he had sent to catch.
"Young Master Ma."
The henchmen were clearly afraid of Xie Shen, and they asked hesitantly, "What should we do now?"
Ma Quanxing's eyes flickered.
What to do now...?
The best thing to do now is to go up and admit your mistake, apologize, and let this matter rest.
But if that's the case, he still won't get the first prize.
"Don't follow me," Ma Quanxing said impatiently. "Let me think about it myself."
After dismissing his henchmen, Ma Quanxing looked around the field, seemingly looking for someone.
In the lobby.
Bai Li handed the lottery ticket she had won to Xie Chen, her beautiful amber eyes brimming with joy.
"Sir, this is the one I won! It's for you!"
Xie Chen looked at the lottery ticket and heard the bodyguard say how difficult it was to win.
He raised an eyebrow and deliberately asked the little kitten in his arms, "Are you really going to give this to me? Doesn't Lili want the reward that's been redeemed?"
Bai Li didn't know what the first prize could be redeemed for, but no matter what she got, nothing was more important than her husband!
He firmly pressed the lottery ticket into Xie Chen's hand, meowing, "No, give it to the master."
He didn't have anything special. When he went to work, he earned some wages, bought gifts for his husband, and then saved up the rest to open a cat cafe or raise other poor cats.
In short, he only wanted to give this rare first prize to his husband.
Xie Chen looked at the determination in the kitten's eyes, paused for a moment, and then accepted the prize ticket.
The lottery ticket could be redeemed on the spot. After redeeming the first prize that Ma Quanxing had been longing for, neither Bai Li nor Xie Chen felt much.
The reason was simple: the first prize was Zhou Zhifu's admission ticket to the ball.
When Bai Li was delivering seafood, she received two admission tickets from Zhou Zhi.
He thought about it and realized that this particular one didn't seem particularly necessary.
The country bumpkin cat was unaware of Zhou Zhi's status in the dance world.
Xie Chen knew Zhou Zhi's importance, but while he appreciated her dancing, he wasn't fanatical about it at all.
Compared to Zhou Zhina's highly anticipated dance, he would rather watch his little kitten perform a few cat-themed calisthenics routines for him on the floor at home.
Xie Chen casually put the admission ticket back into Bai Li's cloth bag and led him to the second floor.
The second floor is quieter, and the food is more refined.
Xie Chen filled a plate with delicious food, placed it in front of Bai Li, and personally fed him.
"The auction will officially begin in half an hour. Lili, if you see anything you like later, just raise your paw to tell me."
The auction on the yacht was of a fairly large scale, with strict entry requirements. During the auction, no one was allowed to enter or leave at will, let alone move around freely within the auction area.
Bai Li didn't know the rules, but after hearing Xie Chen's words, she shook her head.
"I don't want anything."
What isn't he? A greedy cat, now that the master is here, and he's found the third brother...
As for her fiancé, there's still no clue.
However, overall, his life is still quite good.
The gentleman only needs to film the things he needs to use; Bai Li doesn't need anything.
Fifteen minutes before the auction began, Xie Chen led Bai Li into the venue and they sat down in a spacious private room.
The private rooms also include a tatami mat, a bathroom, and rattan chairs, so whether you want to sit, lean back, or fall asleep, it can satisfy your needs.
As soon as she entered, Bai Li jumped down and walked around the private room to familiarize herself with the place.
Xie Chen dismissed the servants in the private room, so it was just him and Bai Li there.
As the auction began, the host, all smiles, displayed the items one by one.
Xie Chen's target was a seemingly unremarkable diary.
It is said that the person who kept the diary was Princess No. 1 of the Y Kingdom. Princess No. 1 had been dead for ten years. This diary was originally a royal secret, but somehow it was leaked.
The starting price for this auction item is very high.
After inspecting the territory, Bai Li sat on Xie Chen's lap, watching him raise the price again and again.
In the end, to Bai Li, that number sounded like an astronomical figure.
"alright."
If we take a picture of that diary, Xie Chen's goal for tonight will be achieved.
This diary might hold some clues he might find about his parents.
Thinking of this long-awaited clue, Xie Chen lowered his eyes, rubbing the kitten's soft belly. His slightly tense emotions dissipated, and he felt instantly much more relaxed.
"Lili, is there really nothing you want?"
"Meow."
No.
Is Bai Li stingy? She doesn't want to spend money recklessly.
He didn't want to spend the money, but Xie Chen wanted to. However, the auctioneer would read out the prices, and that wouldn't fool the little kitten. After thinking for a few seconds, Xie Chen decided to wait until after the auction and buy something elsewhere.
While they whiled away the time at the auction, outside, Ma Quanxing had already checked all the surveillance areas and blind spots.
Zhou Zhi's tickets are too hard to get; Ma Quanxing has tried many methods, but to no avail.
With Zhou Zhi's comeback this time, tickets were scarce, and those who participated in the ticket scramble were all people extremely interested in Zhou Zhi...
These people have everything they need, and even if Ma Quanxing wanted to pay a high price, he couldn't buy any extra tickets.
About an hour later.
Bai Li was in a daze and slept for a while, until Xie Chen carried her out, at which point she groggily opened her eyes.
"Meow?"
Sir, shall we go to sleep?
Xie Chen hummed in agreement: "I'm going to sleep."
He had a bedroom on the third floor of the yacht. There wasn't much to do at the moment, and the little kitten in his arms was still drowsy, so even if the lower two floors were lively, he didn't plan to go and join in.
A few minutes later.
Xie Chen placed the kitten on the bed in the bedroom. Seeing that the kitten's eyes were open, he instructed it, "Lili, I need to go downstairs to get your things."
"You stay here and wait for me."
Bai Li nodded and watched him leave.
The style of this bedroom is minimalist, which is Xie Chen's consistent style.
Bai Li didn't really like this style; he preferred warmer colors.
Not long after Xie Chen left, there was movement at the door.
Hearing footsteps, Bai Li subconsciously assumed that her master had returned with his things.
He ran to the door, grabbed the doorknob with a "thud," and used his chubby body to press down, easily opening the door.
The door opened, but standing outside wasn't the teacher, but the boy who had been so mean to him.
"I hadn't even knocked yet, and you already opened the door."
Ma Quanxing hadn't expected things to go so smoothly. His naturally swollen eyelids drooped, and he acted almost instantly upon seeing the small, snow-white figure.
"Meow!!!"
Bai Li was gripped by the back of his neck, but his claws had been ruthless, scratching a deep mark on the back of Ma Quanxing's hand.
"hiss--"
Ma Quanxing gasped in pain, gripping Bai Li's nape tightly as he muttered, "You little beast!"
The little bastard who arrested people—if it were any other time, he would have skinned that beast alive!
Ignoring the bleeding wound on the back of his hand, Ma Quanxing hurriedly carried the kitten downstairs.
On the artificial balcony led by the small door at the corner, Ma Quanxing finally offered his hand to cover the kitten's mouth.
"Meow!"
Bai Li saw Ma Quanxing raise his hand to slap him, and dodged it by tilting his head.
The demon core within his body was ready to be activated at any moment.
Bai Li is no pushover, is he? A soft-hearted kitten who was captured? In just a few steps, he splashed around and added to Ma Quanxing's antics.
Ma Quanxing never expected that this tiny kitten, no bigger than a palm, would have such a fierce temper.
"Hold."
He cursed, "A beast is a beast, its whole body is full of wild energy."
"Behave yourself!"
Ma Quanxing brought the cat over because he wanted to find the admission ticket. He had seen it when he was redeeming the ticket; it was stuck to the kitten.
Xie Chen's door was too dangerous, and Ma Quanxing wanted to deal with the kitten after finding the ticket, so he simply took the kitten out.
Bai Li's cloth bag is easy to spot.
Ma Quanxing only touched it twice before he pulled out the ticket.
Bai Li kicked his paws, naturally unwilling to have his ticket stolen! Although he already had two tickets, he didn't want to give this one to the bad guys!
The demon core is being activated.
Just as she was waiting for her strength to explode, Bai Li's body suddenly became suspended in mid-air.
The next second—
The little kitten, about to start a fight, was suddenly grabbed by the scruff of its neck and thrown hard into the water outside the yacht.
After losing the cat, Ma Quanxing didn't even glance at it again, grabbed his ticket, got up, and left.
Bai Li: "!!!"
Bai Li desperately meowed, trying to call her master over.
He hasn't even conquered the giant bathtub in the villa yet, let alone this sea!
Can a dry cat drown?!
Seeing that she was about to fall into the water, Bai Li closed her eyes in fear, feeling that she would never see her master again.
But as expected, the sound of splashing into the water did not occur.
Bai Li was caught in mid-air by a pair of hands.
Not only was she caught, it seemed like she was also held in someone's arms.
Bai Li: "..."
Startled, Bai Li, her heart pounding, mustered her courage and opened her eyes a crack.
In his blurry vision, a wisp of white curly hair came into his line of sight.
At the same time, there was a trembling, familiar low voice calling out.
“Lili”.
Bai Li hadn't seen her older brothers and sisters in human form much on the mountain, but she was extremely familiar with their true forms and voices.
At that moment, he recognized the voice – it was his sixth brother!
Bai Liu never expected that while he was sitting on an open-air yacht, his younger brother would suddenly appear out of nowhere.
Looking at the little kitten in her arms, Bai Liu took a deep breath and buried her face in the kitten's soft belly.
It's been so long since I've seen my little brother. I need to give him a good cuddling session!
Bai Li let his sixth brother suck on his soft belly. When his sixth brother had sucked enough, he stretched out his paws and hugged his sixth brother with a wronged expression.
"Meow meow".
Sixth Brother, have I been abandoned?
Bai Liu: "?"
Bai Liu snapped back to reality in a second: "What did you say??"
Bai Li pointed to the large yacht, then to herself, and recounted the events with a meow: "I was originally in my room on the big ship when a particularly wicked person tricked me out, stole my things, and then dumped me on the ship."
"Just like that, whoosh! I was thrown into the air!"
To make it clearer for Sixth Brother, Bai Li even held up her claws and gestured to him how she flew out in a flash.
Bai Liu's face darkened as he watched the kitten meowing and gesturing.
Where did this come from? You stupid human?
He lied to his brother, stole his brother, and then made his brother fly away in a flash.
Bai Liu's anger was rising rapidly, but she still managed to keep a straight face.
"Good girl."
He held his younger brother tightly in his arms, looking at the large yacht that had just caught up with him. His voice sounded gentle, but his eyes were cold.
"Come on, Sixth Brother will take you upstairs to have a look."
"Later, let's make that guy fly out in a flash too. What do you say?"
