Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Xiaowan, who was carrying Little Chestnut, almost forgot about Huo Zheng. She said, “Oh, this is my boyfriend. He came with me to see the kitten!” With this, the members of the Animal Rescue Association finally had a chance to say hello to Huo Zheng.

Huo Zheng nodded politely and stood silently next to Lin Xiaowan. He watched Lin Xiaowan play with Little Chestnut, and a hint of a smile could be seen in his gaze.

However, when the people from the Animal Rescue Association saw how aloof Huo Zheng was, they could not help but wonder if he was really okay with raising a cat.

'Why does he look like he doesn't like cats? Look, the kittens are meowing and taking the initiative to rub against his legs, but he's completely indifferent to them. He didn't even spare them a glance! He's just staring at his girlfriend!'

Indeed, while almost everyone's attention was on the cats, Huo Zheng was only staring at Lin Xiaowan.

'Alright, his girlfriend likes cats, and he likes his girlfriend. In a way, it can be considered that he likes cats as well…'

The members of the Animal Rescue Association silently convinced themselves before they asked Lin Xiaowan if they could film a short video.

Lin Xiaowan did not want to let go of the kitten. She held Little Chestnut in her arms as she crouched down to play with the others. Even the Dragon Li cat came to her side and played with her.

She was a little taken aback when she heard the question. When she recovered, she asked, “What are we filming? The signing of the adoption agreement?”

'Didn't they say that they wanted to film at the house when 1 bring the kitten back?'

“It's not that. We just want to film both of you playing and interacting with the cats.”

The staff member who spoke was a young girl. Perhaps it was her first time doing this, she looked a little embarrassed.

“It'll just take a few minutes. We plan to edit it and post it with our daily videos…”

Although the young girl did not say it explicitly, Lin Xiaowan knew that it was likely to prove that she was really adopting the kitten and that the entire thing was not staged. At this time, she really felt that it was really tiring to face those netizens on the Internet.

The Animal Rescue Association was clearly doing a good deed. Not only were there no benefits, but they also had to justify themselves and prove themselves to others.

Seeing that Lin Xiaowan was silent, the young girl quickly said, “I won't show your faces. Don't worry.”

Lin Xiaowan did not mind, but she did not know how Huo Zheng would feel about it. She tilted her head and asked, “Brother, do you mind?”

The first rule was to address Huo Zheng as 'Brother' when she wanted something. Otherwise, she would only address him as Huo Zheng.

How could Huo Zheng refuse her when it was such a trivial matter? He smiled gently and asked, “When have I ever said no to you?”

Lin Xiaowan scoffed disdainfully, showing her disbelief. She said, “It has happened many, many times. For example, at noon today, I said I wanted to eat desserts, but you said no.”

Huo Zheng raised an eyebrow and looked at her.

They had lunch near Huo Zheng's company earlier. After lunch, the waiter brought the dessert menu over. When Lin Xiaowan said that she wanted to have the mango ice cream, he had refused her. In the end, she had to pick something else.

Although it was for her own good, Lin Xiaowan was very self-righteous. She felt that she was completely in the right. As for Huo Zheng, he naturally gave in to her and accepted that he was in the wrong, regardless if he was right or wrong.

When the young girl from the Animal Rescue Association saw this scene, the tiny doubt in her heart also vanished.

'What's there to worry about? It doesn't matter at all if he likes cats or not. As long as his girlfriend likes them, it'll be fine.'

The person who filmed the video was the same person who was filming when they were rescuing the cats. He was mainly responsible for the association's social media.

Just as the young girl said earlier, the filming was very short. When it ended, he said, “We'll be posting this on Speaker and Bobo Star. Do you have accounts? Do you want me to tag you?”

Lin Xiaowan thought about her Speaker and Bobo Star accounts. Previously, she had signed up for Bobo Star because of Gu Yuwu. Her account only followed Gu Yuwu, and she did not post anything at all. Apart from watching Gu Yuwu's videos, she did not really use Bobo Star. She thought that this was a good chance for her to use it.

She gave her username, which was 'I'm Lin Xiaowan, to the other party, and they began to follow each other.

Before Little Chestnut arrived, Lin Xiaowan went shopping with her sister-in-law, Qiao You'an. Hong Minhua's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zheng, also joined them.

While they were chatting, Mrs. Zheng also invited Lin Xiaowan to attend Hong Minhua's birthday party.

It was only then did Lin Xiaowan know that Hong Minhua's birthday was coming up.

“It's so sudden! 1 had lessons yesterday, but Grandma Hong didn't say anything about it to me!” Lin Xiaowan said with a pout. She puffed her cheeks up just like a pufferfish.

Mrs. Zheng chuckled and pinched her cheek before she said, “She probably forgot to tell you. A few days ago, she said that she was going to personally deliver the invitation to you.”

Hong Minhua was turning 66 years old.

This was the first time Lin Xiaowan was celebrating the birthday of someone at Hong Minhua's age. Not only was Hong Minhua her teacher, but she was also very close to Hong Minhua. As such, it was only natural for her to give Hong Minhua a birthday present. However, after thinking about it, she still could not figure out what to give Hong Minhua.

When she asked Huo Zheng about it, he also did not know the answer to her question. In the end, he said, “Just let Assistant Song handle this.”

Assistant Song had been working for Huo Zheng for many years. He knew what kind of gifts were given at social events like this. Previously, he was also the one who handled Hong Minhua's birthday gifts.

However, Lin Xiaowan refused Huo Zheng's suggestion. She said, “Assistant Song can help you prepare your gift, but I'll handle mine on my own. I can't be perfunctory about her gift.”

Huo Zheng chuckled. “Perfunctory?”

“Grandma Hong is very kind to me. It feels insincere if I let Assistant Song help me get a gift for her. It's not appropriate…”

Seeing that Lin Xiaowan was very serious, Huo Zheng said helpfully, “Then why don't you ask her which painter she likes? Maybe you can give her a painting.”

The painting naturally could not be casually bought. It had to be meaningful and special.

Lin Xiaowan thought it was a good idea. However, after a beat, she asked, “Won't be it too obvious if 1 ask her this?”

Huo Zheng laughed. “Qingqing, are you still planning to surprise her?”

In his opinion, since Lin Xiaowan was going to give Hong Minhua a gift anyway, it did not make a difference if Hong Minhua knew it in advance or

not..
