At the same time, in the Ming Residence—
As soon as Ming Xiu walked through the door, he heard a meowing sound!
A cat?
How could the cat be at home?
Hadn't he sent it to Mu Keren's place?
But when that plump, coffee-colored little creature quickly dashed to his feet, rubbing against his legs with its tail and head to show affection, Ming Xiu was completely taken aback.
Because it was indeed his cat.
Could it be that it was rejected by Mu Keren and sent back home?
"Vice President Ming, you've returned..."
The old butler was advanced in years and had some difficulty moving around.
When Ming Xiu returned, he had been in the back garden, directing the new gardeners as they pruned the plants.
Upon hearing from the servants that Ming Xiu had arrived, he had hurried to meet him.
Regrettably, he was still a step late to the front door.
