Chapter 27.02 (2/2)

Ding Ding was uncomfortable with the way he was looking. She shyly smiled and said: “This is He He’s cat, Xiao Bao. These two months, I have been looking after it. You recognized it, right?”

“It looks like it has change a lot.”

“Yes ah, it has grown a little but gain a fair bit of weight.”

Zheng Xie gave a small smile, reached out and gently touched Xiao Bao’s ear. Before it turned around, he quickly retrack his hands. “You are bringing it over to play?”

“I need to travel for a week. So I am leaving it here in the foster place during the period.” Combined with Ding Ding’s words, Xiao Bao gave a desolated and pitiful cry.

“Since you are busy, I leave first.” Zheng Xie turned around to leave. Just as he turn, he heard her gasp. When he looked back, Xiao Bao had jumped out of her arm and ran ahead while Ding Ding hastily chased it.

Xiao Bao runs around in circle like it was playing hide and seek. Xiao Bao ran nearer to Zheng Xie and suddenly stopped and looked at him with its eyes rolling. Ding Ding breathlessly picked it up, looked at Zheng Xie embarra.s.sedly. “Xiao Bao is very naughty. Yesterday, I brought it over to let it adapt to the environment but today it is probably still do not like it here.”

“Can you not send it to other friend’s place?”

“Ren Ran are not home during these period of time. Other friends….. I think Xiao Bao will be better and more professionally taken care of here.” Ding Ding said seriously while gently touching Xiao Bao’s head, with the hope that it will co-operate. But it refused to co-operate, and gave a cry before indenting its head into her arms with a look as if it has been ill-treated. Ding Ding was embarra.s.sed.

“You will only be away for a week on business trip? Then give it to me.” Zheng Xie regretted after finis.h.i.+ng the sentence. He just did not know what and how he are able to make such a decision.

Ding Ding hesitated for a whole. Soon, she broke into a delightful look and carefully hand Xiao Bao over to him. “Then, trouble you. I will come and pick him up after I return.”

Zheng Xie took over Xiao Bao in a very calm and steady hand. His face remain unchanged, although his posture of holding the cat seems awkward.

Ding Ding waved him goodbye. As she was leaving, she thought, Zheng Xie is not even afraid of snake, how could he be afraid of cats? She knew then that this is certainly the indirect influence of He He.

Yang Wei Qi saw Zheng Xie coming back holding the cat and laughed. “Did you pick up or buy the cat? You look like you were holding onto a bomb.”

Zheng Xie amnesty stuffed Xiao Bao into Yang We Qi’s arms: “Just helping a friend to look after it for a few days. Its name is Xiao Bao.”

“This cat is really honored. Can actually labored everyone.” Yang Wei Qi laughed and touch Xiao Bao’s head. “h.e.l.lo. I am Yan Wei Qi.” Xiao Bao’s claw almost caught her hand.

Yang Wei Qi smiled: “It seems that it does not like me.”

“There is no such thing. It is just naughty and recognized people. This is He He’s cat.” Zheng Xie tried to comfort her while admitting the ident.i.ty of Xiao Bao. Xiao Bao sensuously closed its eyes showing that it does not have any care in the world.

“Its temper is so different from its master.” Yang Wei Qi said with a frustration.

On the way back, Zheng Xie went to buy Xiao Bao some food. He studied every cat food and pet supplies with Yang Wei Qi in the supermarket. They stuffed the shopping basket full. Xiao Bao was staying quietly in the basket. As they were pa.s.sing the dog toy shelf, it suddenly jumped out of the basket and picked up a large bag of bones.

Zheng Xie put the bag into the basket while Yang Wei Qi laughed.

Xiao Bao is pleased and continued to bounce wanting to bite the package with interest.

Yang Wei Qi cannot helped but laughed. “In the future, when you become a father, your children will be spoilt by you.” She suddenly thought of the meaning behind those words and suddenly started to blush.

Zheng Xie as if is not aware, continued to say: “Maybe. I have not been around children for a while already. I am sure you have seen enough of these.”

“Did you not say that you would be only cat-sitting for a week? You have bought enough for a month.”
