The moment the door opened, a figure wrapped up from head to toe barged in without a word! Like some thief or secret agent from a movie, the newcomer immediately locked the door behind them!
"Whoa!"
Ning Yu, who had been sitting cross-legged on the carpet trying to smooth down the fur of a cat that was starting to bristle, jerked in fright.
The cat that had been purring under her hand let out a yowl and sprang high into the air. Its tail puffed up like a squirrel's before it darted under the sofa, leaving only a pair of bright, wary eyes gleaming in the shadows.
The sight nearly melted the young woman's heart!
"Fang Tangsu! Are you trying to start a rebellion?!" Ning Yu patted her chest and glared irritably at the uninvited guest by the door. "Look how badly you scared Yuanbao! I spent half an hour calming her down! She nearly scratched me twice!"
Unfortunately, Fang Yishu merely tore off her mask and hat, tossed aside her oversized sunglasses, and casually dropped a supermarket bag onto the table. Then she let out a long breath and collapsed bonelessly into the beanbag chair beside her.
She paid no attention whatsoever to her best friend's accusations or the two resentful gazes beneath the sofa.
"Don't even get me started. What I ran into today was way more exciting than getting scratched by a cat."
She waved a hand weakly, her eyes still a little unfocused. "Today, I finally learned what it means to have talent carry weight."
"Oho, sounds like there's a story!"
Ning Yu no longer bothered trying to catch the cat. She scooted over, sat cross-legged beside her, and said, "Spill it. Did the department head cry his eyes out this time?"
"The department head? Hah."
