This cat belongs to Yu Wei. She wasn't working today and was reading in her room when Snow White sneaked out. Snow White is a pure white long-haired cat. She's usually silly and soft, and her tail is always held high like a pretty feather duster. Everyone loves her, and there are always people who want to kidnap her.
But I've never seen Snow White willingly go into anyone's arms.
When Yu Wei came downstairs, she saw everyone gathered around the stove grilling food, and she also saw Snow White clinging to Xie Zhuzhou, lying on his lap and making purring noises. Her scalp tightened, afraid that Snow White's fingernails would scratch Xie Zhuzhou's obviously expensive coat.
Xie Zhuzhou didn't mind adding another person; it would help block the wind, since they were warming themselves by the fire in the open air.
He looked down at the cat in his arms; with a cat like this, what more could he ask for?
"Your cat..."
"Not for sale!" Yu Wei shouted in response, afraid that Xie Zhuzhou would try to forcibly take the cat.
Xie Zhuzhou saw through her thoughts, and a rare look of speechlessness appeared on his face. "I mean, what kind of snacks does Snow White like to eat?" His voice softened considerably when he talked about small animals.
"Cat treats, freeze-dried food, canned chicken..." Yu Wei was so embarrassed she was digging her toes into the floor, wishing for a collision between Mars and Earth, and the end of the world. Who could understand her embarrassment?! Xuelai, come back and save me!
Xie Zhuzhou didn't feel embarrassed, since he wasn't the one who was embarrassed, and therefore had no idea that Yu Wei was screaming in her heart at that moment.
He made a rough note of what Snow White liked to eat.
The next day, Snow White received a huge pile of snacks, enough to last her a year.
Yu Wei inexplicably conjured up a passage in her mind: Snow White and kind, and has won the favor of Young Master Xie, who has bestowed upon her a hundred cans of gold and a thousand cat treats.
Her Snow White is quite the feline diva.
Before Xie Zhuzhou could even enjoy a few days of peace, news spread that he was a genius painter, and that his landscape paintings had been collected by the highly respected Elder Sheng. In no time, his talent, like the previous rumors, Xie Zhuzhou known throughout the elite circles.
Who is really harming him?!
Extremes beget their opposites. Once a good reputation is established, a bad reputation will follow. Some people have already Xie Zhuzhou bought his paintings. What could a good-for-nothing bully like him possibly know? He must have bought them with money!
Xie Zhuzhou felt that insulting his painting was an insult to the teacher who taught him painting in his previous life. His teacher was a renowned scholar in the surrounding area, and his paintings had been hung in the imperial palaces of two emperors.
I was angry for two minutes.
There's no evidence since there are no cameras in Elder Sheng's study. Xie Zhuzhou wanted to do a live stream to clarify things, but he's sure to be exposed. When people in the elite circles, entertainment industry, e-sports circle, and campus networks discover that the bully is actually the same person, he'll probably... even his father will be criticized.
He cannot accept being insulted, whether by his father in his past life or his father in his present life.
" Yang Da, help me find out who did this."
"It's been found out. It was Chu Family Chu Yu's assistant who did it. Chu Yu's side probably already knows that you and Mr. Chu are getting close."
"Ha..."
Chu Yu practically delivered this to his doorstep.
Sitting on the living room sofa, Ji Wangyun had no idea what Xie Zhuzhou was thinking. When she saw her younger brother's sinister smile, she felt goosebumps all over her body.
Let's say my younger brother doesn't smile, and sometimes he doesn't have to smile.
Xie Zhuzhou whispered a few words in Yang Da's ear. Ji Wangyun was curious about what idea his younger brother was coming up with, but Xie Zhuzhou wouldn't let his older brothers interfere, saying that he would take revenge himself, and he was so stubborn that even nine oxen couldn't pull him away.
Upon hearing Xie Zhuzhou's instructions, Yang Da's face flashed with a complex expression, but he finally gritted his teeth and agreed.
This was the first time he had ever done something like this.
Ji Wangyun was going crazy with curiosity! Why was her younger brother whispering? Was he some kind of outsider?
Even his dear second brother needs to be guarded against!
The next day, in the afternoon
In the circles of the wealthy, Chu Yu's scandal quietly emerged.
This revelation successfully suppressed the rumors about Xie Zhuzhou and quickly became the headline news in high society circles.
Chu Yu was originally arranged by his father to go on a blind date, but for some reason Lin Shu looked at him with pity and regret, and even told him not to lose hope in life before leaving.
It's so inexplicable!
They didn't even give him a chance to meet again.
After the blind date, he didn't care about what the socialite said, but after entering the upscale club, the rich kids passing by all looked at him with meaningful eyes.
A surge of inexplicable anger welled up inside him. He gritted his teeth and entered the private room, where he saw that all his friends were staring at him, and there were a few sighs and a few shakes of their heads.
He had always been the center of attention when he entered, but he had never been stared at like this before, making him feel very uncomfortable. He frowned slightly and walked to the center to sit down.
He sat down with an air of superiority, and someone secretly slipped him a packet of medicine. "Second Young Master, this medicine is guaranteed to work. It cost a fortune and will surely restore your virility!"
Chu Yu shook off his hand, and the medicine flew to the ground. The surroundings instantly fell silent.
The young man who offered the medicine was dumbfounded. He had originally intended to secretly offer it to Chu Yu, but he didn't expect Chu Yu to ditch him!
Chu Yu must have been devastated and felt hopeless to... give up treatment and a happy life.
Chu Yu couldn't stay there any longer, so he got up and left, leaving his cronies bewildered in the wind.
"Second Young Master must be so embarrassed and want to die, right? No wonder his face was as black as the bottom of a pot when he came in. Wang Le, you too, why did you provoke him!"
Wang Le looked regretful. "If I had known Chu Yu would be so upset about this, I wouldn't have brought it up. But I meant well, didn't I? No wonder the Second Young Master doesn't like the princesses and young masters here, it turns out... sigh."
Chu Yu was furious. He summoned his assistant, who dared not mention the incident, fearing Chu Yu would vent his anger on him. Seeing Chu Yu about to jump up and hit him, the assistant stammered, "It's just... now the whole industry knows you're impotent."
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yu finally understood the meaning behind the meaningful looks those people had given him earlier that day.
At the same time, an unbearable rage surged to his head, making his veins bulge and his teeth grind loudly. He was as angry as a boiler about to explode.
"Who dares to spread rumors about me! Investigate! Find out right now!"
The assistant nodded frantically, then, with a burst of bravado, glanced furtively in that direction, thinking to himself, "No wonder Chu Yu is so angry; he's probably just embarrassed and furious."
Sigh, the heir of the Chu Family, who should be doing this, is actually someone who takes care of his stomach.
"What are you looking at! Get out of here right now!"
The news traveled like a tornado, finally reaching the Ji Family.
Ji Wangyun was discussing the Cloudheart City project with his elder brother in the study. When they were almost finished talking, he took out his phone and was shocked to see a piece of gossip. He almost spat out the water he had just drunk onto the stack of documents on the table.
Ji Wangyun forced himself to swallow the water, but finally couldn't hold back his laughter any longer and burst into laughter, clutching his stomach.
"Hahaha, as expected of the underling, you played really dirty."
Ji Wangchen took the phone and glanced at it.
