A Sense of Being Caught Red-handed

A furious cat sound suddenly echoed from the rookery.

Soon, Hua Qianqian and Li Yuan saw their snow-white Good Boy standing on the rockery, glaring at them unhappily, with its fur bristling.

Li Yuan: …

Why do they feel like they’ve been caught red-handed?

Li Yuan reached out to grab Good Boy, but it swiftly jumped into Hua Qianqian’s arms, provocatively casting a glance at Li Yuan.

Li Yuan’s mouth twitched.

Thankfully, it was just a cat; otherwise, he would have plucked each and every one of its haughty whiskers!

The tension between Li Yuan and the cat escalated, and not far away, urgent footsteps could be heard. Ah Mo hurriedly approached Li Yuan and reported, “Lord, the Emperor was furious when he didn’t find you waiting in the palace. You should hurry back!”

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan furrowed his brow. Hua Qianqian knew what Li Yuan was worried about and gently smoothed his furrowed brow.

“You go and take care of your business. I can handle everything else.”
