Wants to Snuggle Up to the Cat Trafficker

Ruanruan secretly slipped out of the office while Lu Linyuan was having lunch. The door wasn't firmly shut, so she pawed at it until the gap was a little wider, then slipped through and swaggered around the work area outside.

There actually weren't many people working outside Lu Linyuan's office, mostly just the president's office staff. Some had gone to eat at the company cafeteria, while others had ordered takeout and stayed at their desks to eat.

She caught a whiff of the rich aroma of takeout and couldn't quite stop herself from heading toward it.

It wasn't that Lu Linyuan's food didn't smell good. No matter how good it smelled, she didn't dare disturb the boss while he ate, so she'd sneaked out in search of a wider world.

Ah, that's the smell! Sweet-and-sour pork ribs!

But she had barely taken a few steps when Lu Linyuan came out and picked her up.

Lu Linyuan carried her back into the office and shut the door firmly.

"You haven't used the toilet since you got up, yet you dared run out without knowing your own limits. Were you planning to put on a show of peeing and pooping anywhere you please in front of outsiders?" Lu Linyuan looked at Ruanruan in his hand.

His words made Ruanruan want to crawl into a hole, and she had to admit he had a point. She really hadn't used the toilet since she got up!

But you're eating right now. It wouldn't be very nice for me to work up the urge to go here, would it?

Ruanruan gazed at him innocently, looking as though she was thinking of him.

Lu Linyuan clearly didn't care that he was in the middle of a meal. He set Ruanruan securely in the litter box and returned to his desk.

"Meow~" Do I really have to poop now? I can actually hold it a little longer.

Holding his chopsticks, Lu Linyuan didn't even glance at Ruanruan. "You don't have to look at me. If you don't poop now, are you going to poop on the floor later?" Clearly, the way Ruanruan couldn't hold it had left a deep impression on him.

Fine, since you put it that way and don't mind, I won't stand on ceremony.

Just as she was working up the urge to pee, she saw Lu Linyuan pick up his food container and head into the inner lounge.

Tch! It's not that he doesn't mind; he just has a better place to eat.

And here I thought he really didn't mind me at all!

But once Lu Linyuan left, she relaxed even more and soon took care of both urgent needs.

Afterward, Ruanruan carefully buried everything with litter. She didn't leave the litter box immediately, instead draping the front half of her body over the edge and waiting for someone to come clean her up.

She was a kitten who loved being clean, after all.

Lu Linyuan hadn't closed the lounge door. He saw that Ruanruan hadn't come out after finishing, as though she was waiting for him to finish his meal and carry her out.

He looked at his unfinished lunch, then at Ruanruan lying obediently on the edge of the litter box. She was so tiny, lying there quietly without making a fuss, such a pitiful sight that anyone who saw her would be moved.

Lu Linyuan had originally wanted to finish eating first, but he couldn't turn a blind eye to how utterly bored the little one looked. In the end, he got up and cleaned her first. After wiping her clean, he carried her into the lounge, put her on the sofa, and went to wash his hands.

When Lu Linyuan sat down to eat again, Ruanruan didn't disturb him. She just stared with round eyes at the food in his container and licked her lips.

Did you bring me in here to tease this kitty to death?

She was clearly full, but the human food looked so tempting that Ruanruan simply couldn't tear her eyes away. Boss, you're killing me! You might as well have left me in the office outside. Did you bring me in here just to torture me?!

With that thought, Ruanruan decided to leave the sofa. She paced back and forth along its edge, then let out a few meows. Any human who saw her would know she wanted to get down.

Once Lu Linyuan realized what she wanted, he put her on the floor.

As soon as Ruanruan landed, she hurried out of the lounge and into the office. Away from that fragrant place, she instantly felt she could breathe a little easier.

Much better, much better. Human food smells so good. I want to eat it so badly.

If she didn't get away from that place of trouble, she really wouldn't be able to stop herself from putting her paws on it!

Su Qingzhi's company was in another office building not far away. He had originally planned to call Lu Linyuan and ask him out to lunch, but considering how close it was, he drove straight to the basement and came up in the elevator.

They knew each other well, so he didn't have the staff announce him. He opened the office door from outside and called to Lu Linyuan.

"Linyuan, let's go-" Before he could finish, he saw Lu Linyuan eating lunch in the lounge. "You're already eating? I was going to ask you out for lunch." When he finished speaking, he turned his head and saw a little creature.

Su Qingzhi's eyes lit up at once. "Oh, you brought the little one to the office? Did you know I was coming today and bring her here especially for me?" He went straight over to Ruanruan, who was sharpening her claws on a scratching board, picked her up and rubbed her in his arms.

Ruanruan perked up as soon as she heard his voice. Isn't this the one who sent the boss voice messages last time? The one with the super nice voice who could be a voice actor!

Wow, hearing his voice up close, it really sounds so good my ears could get pregnant.

She turned her big, round eyes on him and sized him up. Not bad, he's handsome too, and his personality seems better than the boss's. I don't mean anything bad about the boss. Not bad. Paired with that dashing face, his voice sounds even better, hehe.

Excited in Su Qingzhi's arms, Ruanruan looked at him with sparkling eyes and meowed twice in greeting. She wanted to hear him say a few more words. A treat for voice lovers like me-how could I miss it!

Seeing that the little one seemed to like him, Su Qingzhi said smugly to Lu Linyuan, "Look, this young master really is loved by everyone, and cats love me too. She seems to get along with me, so why don't you just give her to me? That would make Chen Xiao green with envy. Ever since he watched the surveillance footage last time, he's kept telling me he wants to take this little one home and raise her."

Seeing Ruanruan act so shamelessly, Lu Linyuan lifted his eyelids coolly. Looking rather displeased, he put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, "If you want one, go buy one yourself. Don't come bothering me."

After listening to Su Qingzhi talk for so long, and hearing him say he liked her and wanted to take her away, Ruanruan happily wrapped both paws around the back of his hand and pressed her little face against it to express her joy. But she'd barely rubbed against him twice when Lu Linyuan, who had come over without her noticing, scooped her back into his arms.

"This is a cat trafficker. You don't pay any attention to your safety," he lectured Ruanruan with a perfectly serious face.

Seeing how much Lu Linyuan cared, Su Qingzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I can see it now-you really do treasure this cat. She just rubbed against me a couple of times and you couldn't stand it!"

Lu Linyuan didn't want to say it: She's never rubbed against me like that.
