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

Chapter 1416: Forbidden Arts (Part 4)

"Oh? How is it different?"

"I heard that people who own dogs might only want one, but cat owners are different. They tend to get one and then want another. Since Xiaoxi likes cats and I don’t have much to give him, I’ll give him a cat."

Of course, if he fancies this purebred, noble Persian cat and loses interest in that orange tabby, that would be even better, hehe. Then he could take it in and raise it himself.

In his eyes, that cat was a bit ugly, but it made up for it by being clever and spirited. Last time, it even helped his cousin scratch that pesky little troublemaker. If after a while his cousin decides not to keep the cat anymore, he wouldn’t mind taking it in.

Thinking of this, Duan Xin couldn’t help but chuckle, his somewhat silly grin causing Duan Qirui beside him to find it especially annoying.

Up front, Duan Qianyang didn’t say anything; he just shook his head helplessly, though he was happy that his brothers got along well.

The worst thing for a family looking to prosper is internal strife between brothers.

He turned his head again and asked Duan Qirui, who was sitting by the window and was wary of bumping into the woven cage, "Qirui, have you seen the doctor lately?"

"I have," Duan Qirui answered, his gaze constantly fixed outside the window.

Actually, in recent years, Duan Qirui’s obsessive-compulsive disorder wasn’t as severe as rumored outside; it had improved quite a bit. But since Duan Qianyang hadn’t yet regained real power from old Master Duan, and Duan Qirui disliked being ordered around by the old man, he had to pretend to be so severe that he couldn’t even leave the house.

Duan Qianyang nodded, and the three of them chatted casually all the way, in a very harmonious atmosphere, until the car stopped in front of the Shu Family’s gate more than half an hour later.

The door guard came over, pointed out the route, and then let them pass.

In front of the garden building, Ruan Jiaojiao wasn’t being held by Xiu Xi. Instead, she wore the little red vest that the Ruanlin Family had hastily made for her due to the sudden drop in temperature, squatting seriously at the front of the building waiting with Xiu Xi, while Ruan Hao stood nearby, and old Master Shu stood in the doorway at a distance.

As for the Ruanlin Family, they didn’t make an appearance today, fearing it might cause suspicion or misunderstandings. After all, since Shu Jiao and Ruan Jianguo had both left, it wouldn’t look right for an elderly lady to stay without a reasonable excuse.

It wasn’t long before the Duan Family’s car came in, and from about a dozen meters away, Ruan Hao quickly went to help old Master Shu outside.

Ruan Jiaojiao was picked up by Xiu Xi.

Duan Qianyang was the first to get out of the car and immediately noticed the cat he was holding.

A bright orange cat wearing a big red coat was certainly eye-catching.

He didn’t expect his son to have such a taste. Thinking that it was a good day, he held back, not saying anything, and instead turned to exchange pleasantries with old Master Shu, who was walking over. Duan Qirui followed behind, just nodding, while Duan Xin cheerfully waved at Xiu Xi, "Xiaoxi, come see what your brother brought you!"

Duan Xin was quite skilled in calling himself an older brother and didn’t feel awkward at all.

He lifted the woven basket from the back seat and, like a treasure, presented it in front of Xiu Xi, "Look, this is the purebred cat I brought you!"

It’s worth much more than that tabby in your arms!
