Chapter 10: Sky-priced Hamster House (2/2)
“Not that much, so no need.”
Yan Jin shook his head. Xiao Yu thought they were going to say something like ‘they’re like close brothers, no need to be so calculative’ or something, but it wasn’t as he said with a serious expression,
“It’s my hamster, how could I let it say in a cage that someone else bought.”
At that very moment, Xiao Yu saw Chu Ge’s face that spelled out ‘obnoxious idiot’.
Don’t ask him how he deduced that – if someone could understand a hamster’s expression, then they would have seen the same words from Xiao Yu’s face.
Then, a very interesting incident happened.
Chu Ge demanded an exorbitant price, “It’s a second-hand product after all. Since we’re quite close, I’ll charge you six thousand.”
Six thousand? SIX THOUSAND?!
Even if Xiao Yu wasn’t familiar with the price range for pet products, he definitely understood that it couldn’t be that expensive!
Xiao Yu almost instantly noticed that the price Chu Ge mentioned wasn’t the cage, but –
The iPad underneath him! The ‘Fishy’s iPad’ that Yan Jin passed on to him!
Yan Jin did not doubt him as he took out his phone and made the transfer.
Xiao Yu raised his head and looked at the two people, simply not understanding who was acting like the idiot in this case.
Or maybe both of them were acting like idiots?
He wouldn’t understand the world of the big bosses. He decided to obediently continue being a hamster.
Chu Ge who arrived like the wind did not stay for too long, he soon bid his farewell.
He indeed had things to do next and spending more than half a day at Yan Jin’s place was nearing his limit. Before he left, Chu Ge honestly admitted the mistake he had previously made:
“I went to check it. It’s better if you give him hamster food. Hamsters can eat human food, but there’ll be lots of problem after that. When he’s good, just give him some melon seeds.”
Yan Jin had a face full of disbelief. “Are you sure? I’ve given it a few meals already and it’s all been good.”
“You can check the internet if you don’t believe me. The pet is yours, it’s your responsibility.”
Yan Jin objected to that theory; he used to do extensive research on his pets’ lifestyles, but all of that was no use — none of them survived. So now, for him to not be too hung up about it, he’d do it however he wished.
After Chu Ge left, Yan Jin moved the cage into his bedroom. There weren’t many things on this desk so there was a lot of free space after some minor arrangements. He placed the cage against the wall. Xiao Yu put up an act and pretended to play in his new house for a while. Little did he realize that he had forgotten about the time as he indulged in this hard to come by entertainment.
When Xiao Yu was finally tired out from playing, he realized that Yan Jin wasn’t in the room anymore.
Unsure if it was on purpose or not, Yan Jin hadn’t closed his cage.
Xiao Yu slid down from the cage’s second level, landing with a bloop on the first level. Then after maneuvering around a few toys, and taking a shortcut, he successfully left the cage. He observed his surroundings and the first thing that came into his view was Yan Jin’s computer that was still on and glowing with blue light.
It was as if it were God’s will.
Xiao Yu thought, in the YL chairman office, if Yan Jin were to leave the room, he would have shut his computer before leaving. But now that he’ was in his own house, even for a person like Yan Jin, he would also let down his guard.
There was no other person in this villa, who would have guessed that there would be a human soul inside this soft and adorable body of a hamster?
Xiao Yu ran to the front of the computer and shifted the mouse.
The computer might contain Yan Jin’s biggest secret, or YL’s greatest, most secretive information. That also meant that it would contain information about the ‘designer’ that had won several grand awards within the next year.
Before this, Xiao Yu had checked Yan Jin’s phone. But there was no related information on Yan Jin’s QQ. Xiao Yu thought of several possibilities, and the highest possibility was that Yan Jin did not have just one account.
Xiao Yu’s gaze landed on that piece of carpet not too far away.
Le Temps Des Cathédrales
Without a doubt, that was his work. Even if it was some time way back ago, he could still recognize that it was a piece from his designs.
Xiao Yu still remembered the history of this order, that was a piece that his senior, Lin Zhou, gave him at SI; therefore, Yan Jin must have requested the order from SI. It didn’t matter if he did that to scout for information or any other reason, as a chairperson for YL, Yan Jin would never use his work account.
Which meant that Yan Jin had to have another side account. Not as YL’s chairperson, but Yan Jin’s personal account.
Xiao Yu did not know if this account was a QQ account. He could only give it a try. He opened QQ, and surprisingly, the account that popped up was indeed not the account on Yan Jin’s phone. What was even better was that Yan Jin had set the computer to remember the password.
Xiao Yu tapped on the login button with his shaking paws.
