Chapter 55 – The Owner of the Stray Kitten

The Owner of the Stray Kitten (2)

Xu Xinghe held the dirty little kitten in her arms. Its injuries were too severe. She had to take it to the hospital immediately.

Xu Xinghe carried the bruised little black cat to the vet. The vet almost thought that this woman with such beautiful features might actually be a cat abuser.

Xu Xinghe quickly explained, “I found this little black cat. Doctor, please take a look at it.”

Hearing this, the vet realized he had misunderstood. The concern in the other party’s eyes for the cat was real. So she was a kind-hearted and beautiful young woman.

The vet carefully examined the kitten’s wounds and was shocked by the extent of its injuries. “Broken bones and severe malnutrition. Fortunately, you brought it in on time. Otherwise, the outcome wouldn’t have been good.”

Lin Mo was still unconscious. He only felt pain all over his body and overwhelming exhaustion. He felt like he might never wake up again.

Suddenly, a pair of gentle hand stroked his head gently. Who was that?

Lin Mo tried hard to open his eyes, but he could only make out a woman in a white dress. Before he could see her clearly, he lost consciousness again.

Xu Xinghe paid three thousand yuan in medical fees. The kitten needed to stay for observation, so she had to go back for now.

Before leaving, she walked over to the young vet. “Hello, may I have your contact information? I’m afraid the kitten might be scared when it wakes up.”

The young vet was only twenty-five years old, wearing silver-rimmed glasses, looking refined and gentle. Xu Xinghe instinctively felt he should be reasonable and easy to talk to.

“Of course. My name is Su Bai.”

Xu Xinghe responded politely, “I’m Xu Xinghe. I’ll trouble you, Dr. Su.” After speaking, she sent a five hundred yuan red envelope transfer to him on the chat app.

Su Bai didn’t expect her to transfer money so directly. He was stunned and then immediately declined. “I won’t accept the money, Miss Xu. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of the kitten for you.”

Seeing that he really didn’t want to accept it, Xu Xinghe didn’t insist. She thanked him seriously and then turned to leave.

Watching her leave like this, Su Bai suddenly felt a twinge of disappointment?

He chuckled and shook his head, pushing the inappropriate thoughts out of his mind, and focused on his work.

…

Ye Qinghe ran all the way home. Seeing that her own home was just an ordinary three-bedroom apartment, she frowned slightly.

How could anyone live in such a small space? It wasn’t even as big as her walk-in closet in her previous life!

But from now on, she would be free! No more suffocating imprisonment.

A big smile spread across Ye Qinghe’s face. Then she heard a door opening at the entrance. It was her mother, Zhang Hongfang.

Zhang Hongfang was a traditional rural woman. She had climbed the social ladder by marrying Ye Wu. But after all these years, having only one daughter had somewhat cooled the relationship between the couple.

She had little patience for her daughter, who had been doing nothing at home since graduation. “It’s been so long since you graduated, and you still haven’t gone out to find a job. You just lie around at home all day.”

The familiar nagging almost moved Ye Qinghe to tears. She suddenly threw herself at Zhang Hongfang. “Mom! I miss you so much.”

Zhang Hongfang’s face twisted for a moment as she pulled Ye Qinghe off her. “Calling me ‘Mom’ won’t help. You have to go out and find a job next week!”

Ye Qinghe pouted. She had been reborn, didn’t she know business opportunities?

Well, actually, she didn’t.

Lottery numbers?

She hadn’t paid any attention to them.

Ye Qinghe thought for a long time, only to realize that aside from knowing the little black cat was the young master of the Lin family, she had no clue about anything else.

A job? What’s so hard about that? In this life, she didn’t need to rely on anyone. She would be her own queen!
