The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s

Chapter 1398: Identity Exposed (Part 6)

Ruan Jiaojiao dared to swear on all her little silverfish that the one she flung definitely did not hit his shoe; it only landed next to it!

But Duan Qirui reacted as if it were a bomb that flew past; he instantly jumped up from the ground, stomping his feet so vigorously that the wooden trapezoidal steps nearly flipped over.

Ruan Jiaojiao stretched out her little claws, gripping tightly onto the wooden board beneath her because only by doing so, she wouldn’t fly off like that little silverfish.

Meanwhile, Duan Qirui had already jumped down, distancing himself from Ruan Jiaojiao as fast as a whirlwind, as if staying any longer would contaminate him with some dirty thing.

"..." Suspected dirty thing, Ruan Jiaojiao.

She quietly took a deep breath, giving herself a mental pep talk. This is Brother Xiu’s second uncle. He’s unwell; she is already a full-grown cat and should be mature, must not argue with him, absolutely must not.

However—

Seeing Duan Qirui bend down using his handkerchief to repeatedly wipe at his sneakers the non-existent dirt, Ruan Jiaojiao completely lost it.

She practically leaped up and yelled at Duan Qirui: "Meowgah!" You’re being too ridiculously out of line!

That little silverfish didn’t even touch the edge, what’s there to wipe, a ball of yarn!

Seeing the little kitten seemingly bark out like this, Duan Qirui was startled for a second but didn’t care, continuing to wipe along the edge of his sneakers, which made Ruan Jiaojiao so mad that she sprinted to the edge of the stairs. She picked up a small silverfish, flinging it with all her might towards his shoe.

This time, perhaps even fate was on her side. The little silverfish really did land right on the edge of Duan Qirui’s shoe and even brushed against his hand near his shoe.

"!!!" Duan Qirui.

Silence.

Silence.

More silence.

Duan Qirui stood there, dumbfounded for about three seconds before he suddenly came to his senses. He leaped from the ground, vigorously shaking his hand as if doing the breakdance, and then turned around to run towards the faucet from before, so fast that you couldn’t even tell he was a middle-aged man in his forties.

Duan Xin and Duan Qianyang, who were being beaten by Xiu Xi in a one-on-one, conveniently took a break at this moment. As they walked over, they saw this scene and asked confusedly, "What happened to my dad?"

Duan Xin had never seen this lively side of his dad, and if it weren’t for the fact that he ran off toward the faucet, he would have suspected his dad was breakdancing right there.

Walking beside him was Xiu Xi, and since Duan Qianyang went to the restroom, naturally no one answered him.

Xiu Xi casually wiped his sweaty hair with a towel, picked up Ruan Jiaojiao, and seeing her staring blankly in one direction, he asked offhandedly, "What’s wrong?"

Ruan Jiaojiao snapped back to reality and immediately shook her head guiltily.

She didn’t do anything! Nothing at all!

Since she didn’t answer, Xiu Xi didn’t mind, casually tickling her little chin and then placing her on a blanket. He picked up the cup lid she had drunk from and drank the remaining water.

Duan Xin noticed this from the side, silently sticking his tongue. This cousin of his might be cold, but who would’ve thought he’s a cat fanatic?

Could he really love cats to this extent?

He also had a friend who had a Siberian Husky, looking mighty handsome, though sometimes a bit dopey and annoying with its chatty mouth. But after all, it’s an imported breed, not like the plain-looking orange tabby cat here.
