My Sexy CEO Wife

Chapter 344 - 341 Amiability

```

From the City Lord's Mansion came bursts of reprimand.

City Lord Bai Daqing was in a fury.

"Useless! A bunch of useless people!"

"Can't even find one spirit cat! What do I feed you for!"

"It's killing me! It's really killing me!!!"

Bai Daqing bellowed in anger, his voice so loud it traveled throughout the entire mansion, silencing all servants, who dared not move about or speak too loudly for fear of provoking Bai Daqing and becoming an outlet for his wrath.

"My lord!" A guard hurried in, "You must come and see, the young miss is crying and making a fuss... she's insisting on going out to search for the spirit cat, and many can't hold her back..."

"Can't this child give me a moment's peace," Bai Daqing sighed, then walked briskly towards the outside.

The guard quickly followed.

...

In a beautifully flowered courtyard.

A beautiful young woman was throwing a tantrum, hitting anyone she saw, smashing whatever she found, crying and making a scene like a lunatic — this woman was none other than Bai Mudan.

"Miss, please calm down."

"Miss, rest assured, the spirit cat will definitely be found."

"The City Lord has decreed that you may not go outside."

A group of men and women pleaded with her agonizingly.

"Get lost! All of you get lost!" Bai Mudan shrieked hysterically, "I want to go out and find the spirit cat, no one can stop me! Get out!!!" Bai Mudan lunged to hit someone, causing the servants to dodge in all directions.

"Have you had enough of this noise!" Bai Daqing stormed in from the outside, grabbing Bai Mudan's arm, "I've already dispatched people to look for the spirit cat, there will be news very soon. Can't you just calmly wait a few days? Do you really need to kick up such a fuss?"

"I can't wait any longer!" Bai Mudan yelled, "The spirit cat is gone, and so is my soul, every day is like death."

"Nonsense!" Bai Daqing scolded, "Making a life or death situation out of a spirit cat, can't you show a bit of spine!"

"The spirit cat is my life! The spirit cat is my spine! The spirit cat is everything to me!" Bai Mudan screamed at the top of her voice, "Mother has passed away, and you're busy with official duties every day, having no time to keep me company. It was the spirit cat... it was the one that stayed with me, accompanying me to eat, to play, to sleep...

these years it's the spirit cat's company that has made me happy..."

Seeing Bai Mudan utterly heartbroken, Bai Daqing's heart softened, "I promise you! I will find the spirit cat!"

"My lord!" A guard ran in, "The spirit cat has been found!"

"Eh?" Bai Daqing's eyebrows rose, "What did you say?"

"The spirit cat has been found!" the guard repeated.

"Really?" Bai Daqing's face lit up with joy, "Where is the spirit cat now?"

"Right at the front gate, being held by a stranger..." Before the guard could finish, Bai Mudan ran out like a madwoman.

Bai Daqing quickly followed, thanking heavens, they had finally found the spirit cat.

...

At the front gate.

Gao Fei was holding a plump cat, his eyes scanning around, clearly showcasing the grandeur of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Spirit cat!" A woman ran out from the inner courtyard, reaching out to embrace the still-sleeping spirit cat.

"Swoosh!"

Gao Fei stepped back, eyeing the woman warily, "Who might you be?" The spirit cat was his money tree, and he wasn't about to let someone snatch it away.

"Give me back my spirit cat!" The woman charged forward trying to snatch it away, "The spirit cat is mine!"

```

"Whoosh!"

Gao Fei dodged to the side and shouted at the woman, "Who exactly are you!"

"She is my daughter, and the owner of the spiritual pet cat," Bai Daqing arrived on the scene at that moment. "Quickly hand over the spiritual pet cat to my daughter, she's been nearly going mad with worry." As soon as Bai Daqing made an appearance, he astonished Gao Fei.

What a powerful aura! Gao Fei looked at Bai Daqing with a face full of shock, impressed by the fact that he was at the Unity of Heaven and Man level of cultivation!

"Swoosh!"

While Gao Fei was still in a state of shock, Bai Mudan snatched away the spiritual pet cat, "My darling baby, you're finally back, do you know? I've been almost going crazy these past few days." Bai Mudan hugged and petted the spiritual pet cat with excitement that was nearly too much to handle.

Huh? Why isn't the spiritual pet cat reacting?

Soon, Bai Mudan noticed something off about the spiritual pet cat, "What's going on? Why are its eyes closed?"

"Oh, no worries, it's just temporarily unconscious, it'll wake up soon," explained Gao Fei.

"Let me have a look." Bai Daqing walked up, reached out to touch the spiritual pet cat's head, and then it opened its eyes.

"Little cutie, you're awake," Bai Mudan said with a smile.

"Meow!"

The spiritual pet cat rubbed its head against Bai Mudan and meowed a couple of times.

"You can't run off like that again," Bai Mudan cautioned. "If you get lost again, I won't be able to live on."

"Meow! Meow!!!" Suddenly, the spiritual pet cat sprang up and hissed at Gao Fei, its appearance was extremely ferocious.

"Did you bully the spiritual pet cat?" Bai Mudan glared at Gao Fei fiercely.

"No, I didn't bully it," Gao Fei replied innocently.

"If you didn't bully the spiritual pet cat, then why is it so hostile toward you?" Bai Mudan huffed.

"This... I need to explain..." Gao Fei said with a wry smile, "It was like this... I found this spiritual pet cat in a forest. For some reason, the cat was very wary of me. Whenever I got close, it would immediately run away. It was incredibly fast, and I simply couldn't catch up...

In the end, having no other choice, I had to use a cunning strategy to lure the cat..." Gao Fei recounted the process of capturing the spiritual pet cat.

"You are very sly," Bai Mudan accused him.

"Don't speak nonsense," Bai Daqing scolded her. "I think the young man did nothing wrong. It's understandable to use some techniques to catch the spiritual pet cat."

"Dad..."

"Alright, hurry and take the spiritual pet cat home. Get it something to eat. Being out and about for these past few days, it must be starving."

"Ah, right, I'll go get some food for the spiritual pet cat now." Bai Mudan, holding the spiritual pet cat, hurried away.

"Young man, don't take it to heart," Bai Daqing, smiling warmly, looked at Gao Fei. "My daughter is straightforward, and sometimes her words can be harsh, but please don't be offended."

"Not at all, I don't mind," Gao Fei quickly shook his head.

"Young man, you've really helped me out a lot," Bai Daqing said. "You've brought back the spiritual pet cat, and my daughter has calmed down, so I can relax as well."

"It's my honor to serve the City Lord," Gao Fei replied graciously.

"By the way, I haven't asked your name yet?"

"Oh, I'm Gao Fei."

"Judging by your accent, you're not a local, are you?"

"Ah, no..."

"To be so young and yet possess such a level of cultivation is truly rare," Bai Daqing commented with an amiable and contented manner, appearing like a kind and simple elder.
