Chapter 291: The Cat Who Scratched the Shoes
Translator: Zayn_
Fang Yan didn’t understand what the boss was thinking. He thought that Jiang Zhihan wanted to come out, so he opened the cat carrier without hesitation.
Jiang Zhihan jumped out of the carrier and landed lightly on the ground, but he didn’t attract Song Qingyou’s attention.
The latter was still chatting with Yu Muhuai.
Jiang Zhihan looked down at his paws and thought about the possibility of scratching Yu Muhuai a few times.
It didn’t seem to work.
If he did, Song Qingyou would have to apologize to Yu Muhuai.
If he had hit him too hard, Yu Muhuai might even take the opportunity to ask Song Qingyou to take care of him.
He couldn’t do anything to Yu Muhuai.
Fang Yan was the only one left among the people present.
Jiang Zhihan looked up at Fang Yan.
Fang Yan did not understand what was going on. Just as he was about to squat down and ask the boss if he had any orders, he saw a certain cat “stomp” over his feet.
Fang Yan could not help but gasp when he saw the cat paw prints and scratches on his new pair of high-end leather shoes.
The moment he gasped, Song Qingyou immediately looked over.
“Zhizhi?”
Only then did Song Qingyou realize that the cat carrier Fang Yan was carrying belonged to her cat.
Because the cat carrier only had a small window on the side, Song Qingyou’s attention was elsewhere, and she subconsciously thought that Chen Lan wouldn’t ask Fang Yan to take care of the cat…
Therefore, she had directly ignored him.
“Meow-”
The black and white cat raised its head and responded arrogantly. Then it wagged its tail and turned its head away, looking like it didn’t want to talk to Song Qingyou.
Song Qingyou instantly understood. Without hesitation, she squatted down and stroked her cat’s fur.
“Don’t be angry, Zhizhi. I didn’t ignore you on purpose.”
“I didn’t notice you just now. Should I apologize to you?”
Her voice was so gentle that it didn’t sound like Song Qingyou herself.
Ever since the Zhizhi affair, Song Qingyou had become more adept at coaxing her cat.
When Fang Yan heard this, he finally realized why he had been stepped on.
Looking at the boss who allowed Miss Song to stroke the cat’s head, he consciously took two steps back.
Who knew that his movement would be noticed by Song Qingyou?
“Assistant Fang, your shoes-”
“There are scratch marks on it…I’m sorry, I’ll pay you later.”
Jiang Zhihan looked up.
Fang Yan immediately said,”You don’t have to pay, you don’t have to pay. It’s just a scratch. It’s not like I can’t continue wearing it.”
Song Qingyou was speechless.
She followed Assistant Fang’s gaze and looked at her cat.
The cat looked innocent. “Meow?”
“But this pair of shoes looks like they were custom-made. They should be very expensive. Why don’t you tell me the price, Assistant Fang?”
Fang Yan met the boss’ gaze again.
No emotion could be seen on the furry face
So, do you want Miss Song to pay? Or not?
“Assistant Fang?” Song Qingyou glanced at him in confusion.
Fang Yan: “Ah, the shoes aren’t expensive. There’s no need to pay for them. I brought the cat from Ms. Chen. Strictly speaking, I’m also responsible for this.”
Song Qingyou sighed. “It seems that Assistant Fang really likes Zhizhi.”
Fang Yan smiled but did not say anything. Whether he liked it or not, he could not say.
“How about this?” Song Qingyou was half-joking and half-serious. “Assistant Fang, take Zhizhi back to take care of him for a while. This pair of shoes can be considered as the fee for Assistant Fang to pet the cat.”
Jiang Zhihan: —>
Fang Yan immediately waved his hand. “No, no, no.”
Bringing a cat home was equivalent to bringing a leader home.
At that time, he would have to worship the cat twenty-four hours a day, let alone pet it!
Seeing the rejection written all over his body, Song Qingyou asked in confusion, “Assistant Fang, don’t you like Zhizhi?”
Fang Yan smiled awkwardly. “I can’t take care of them. If I could, I would buy a few cats and raise them.” few cats and raise them.”
“That’s true.” Song Qingyou smiled. “I was joking just now, but if Assistant Fang doesn’t mention the price of the shoes, I might not be joking anymore…”
Fang Yan had no choice but to report a number.
In the end, he even lowered his head, trying to figure out his superior’s expression.
Jiang Zhihan had been frowning since the beginning. When Fang Yan looked over, his ears were exposed.
Song Qingyou lifted the cat into the air and pretended to be angry.
“Zhizhi, you scratched someone else’s shoes. How can you still be angry at him? Hmm?”
“You can’t be a rude bad cat, understand? Come, apologize to Assistant Fang.”
Song Qingyou held her cat by the back of its neck and turned him around so that he was facing Fang Yan.
Jiang Zhihan’s face was as straight as a cat’s as if he was asking, ‘Do you want me to apologize to you?
Fang Yan was speechless.
If it weren’t for the fact that Ms. Song didn’t know that the cat was Mr. Jiang, he would have suspected that Ms. Song was hoping that he would be fired.
Also, Mr. Jiang was just being carried around, and Ms. Song might be fine. He had seen this scene before, so he wouldn’t be killed by Mr. Jiang later, right?
“There’s no need for that.” Fang Yan’s lips twitched. “Miss Song, you should put the cat down. He might be uncomfortable.”
If he mentioned it any longer, Mr. Jiang might put all the blame on him.
Fang Yan felt that he could not afford it.
Song Qingyou thought that Fang Yan was worried about the cat, so she put Zhizhi in her arms and poked the cat’s head with her other hand.
“Qingyou, don’t blame Zhizhi,” Yu Muhuai said gently. “It probably saw that the person carrying the cat carrier was someone it didn’t know, so it attacked him.”
“If Assistant Fang hadn’t opened the cat carrier-”
Yu Muhuai didn’t finish his sentence.
But the three people present understood.
When Fang Yan heard this, he sized up the little celebrity in front of him seriously for the first time.
Mr. Jiang clearly saw Ms. Song talking to this person just now, so he stepped on him…
Could it be that this person was plotting something against Miss Song?
Yu Muhuai met Fang Yan’s scrutinizing gaze and smiled.
“I’m sorry, Assistant Fang must have his own considerations. Besides, it’s already happened. There’s no point in talking about it now.”
Fang Yan felt that the other party was hostile and could not help but frown.
The next moment, Yu Muhuai said, “It’s not too late to transfer the money to Assistant Fang after Qingyou gets her phone back.”
“I heard from Brother Jiang that you had a drama performance today. I came over immediately after hearing about it. Since I came here specially to support you, after you finish the play and change your clothes, can we have a meal together?”
Just when Song Qingyou opened her mouth, Fang Yan was startled by the cat staring at him.
“Wait a minute.”
“Is there anything else, Assistant Fang?”
The smile on Yu Muhuai’s face turned colder.
“I think Miss Song might not be able to agree to this gentleman.”
“Because I still have some work matters that 1 need to discuss with you in detail for Mr. Jiang.”
Yu Muhuai said with a fake smile: “There is no need to talk about work during meal time.”
“But it’s almost dinnertime. It’s rare for me to meet Miss Song…” Fang Yan looked troubled.
The two of them were at loggerheads. When they faced each other, there seemed to be invisible smoke between them.
In the eyes of others, this looked like a battlefield..
