Strange Life of a Cat

Shu Dong has always felt that he is good at reading people, and can guess what the other party is thinking from the subtle changes in his expression, but now he is confused.

When Professor Jiao and Yuan Zhiyi heard what Boss Cai said just now, to be precise, when he mentioned "Hengwu Square", the facial expressions of the two became...unintelligible. He really didn't know how to connect the changes in the expressions of these two people with "Hengwu Square" and the cat.

Looking at the two people whose expressions continued to be delicate, and then at the black cat, Shu Dong coughed, "Professor Jiao and Mr. Yuan, what do you think of Hengwu Plaza? Can you tell me and give me some advice? At that time, Lao Cai could avoid some troubles after passing by, and I heard that the place is still a bit particular."

Of course, some ordinary small shops won't do much, but if you want to make a bigger one, you will have some interests involved, and you will inevitably negotiate with some people there, for example, the boss Ye Hao behind the Hengwu Plaza. Mr. Shu doesn't know much about local snakes in many places in the mainland, and he has nothing to do with Ye Hao. His knowledge of Ye Hao is limited to the investigation materials given to him by his assistant. Besides Ye Hao, there are other unofficial forces near Hengwu Square. In fact, Dong did not agree with Boss Cai's choice of that place, but Boss Cai insisted that he had no choice but to help as much as he could.

"This...Hengwu Square..." Yuan Zhiyi hesitated to speak, opened his mouth, and looked at Papa Jiao, "Mingsheng, tell me, after all, your family...who knows better."

who...

When Zheng Tan heard them talking about Hengwu Square, he stopped looking at Tofu's prickly ears, and jumped back to the chair next to Papa Jiao, listening to their conversation. When Yuan Zhiyi was talking, his eyes always looked towards Zheng Tan, and Zheng Tan didn't know what this guy was thinking.

Papa Jiao thought for a while, and said, "I believe Chairman Shu and Boss Cai have done some understanding of Hengwu Plaza. Although I live in Chuhua University, I don't go there often. I don't necessarily know more than the two of you."

Shu Dong took a sip of tea from the cup in front of him, and looked at Papa Jiao: "Do you know Ye Hao?" If you don't know about Hengwu Square, you don't necessarily know about the people behind it.

"I know him, but I'm not familiar with him." Papa Jiao didn't deny it. He didn't want to talk about many things, after all, it was related to his cat, but Mr. Shu was too smart, and it was only the first time they met Mr. Shu, so they didn't know each other well at all, and it was impossible to say too much.

Hearing Papa Jiao say that he knew Ye Hao, this made Shu Dong a little surprised. He really didn't expect that the two people he happened to meet would actually have something to do with them. He knew Ye Hao from the information given by his assistant. People who are much younger than him are not so easy to deal with, and they are ruthless enough. This is why he is worried that Boss Cai will open a shop there in the past. Boss Cai is not smooth and easy to offend people. Personally help others and give some face. In the past, it was hard to say in Chuhua City, even if it was a branch store. Boss Cai will definitely stay there for a while, since it is the first branch after all. He has been friends for so many years, he doesn't want to see Boss Cai die inexplicably not long after the past.

Of course, Shu Dong also saw that Professor Jiao didn't want to talk about some things, he just needed to know that Professor Jiao and Ye Hao knew each other. What he meant was, can we arrange a meeting with Ye Hao at that time? Although I can meet and talk with Ye Hao as Shu Dong, it would be better if there are people I know to connect with.

Dad Jiao didn't refuse immediately, he had to ask Ye Hao about the meeting first. In fact, most of the time, with Ye Hao, his face is not as good as his own cat, and it depends on whether his own cat wants to help.

Zheng Tan sat here and yawned a few times, listening to the conversation of these four people boredly, unable to fall asleep even if he wanted to sleep.

Probably seeing Zheng Tan's boredom, Papa Jiao said: "Go out for a walk if you're bored." After talking, Papa Jiao recalled Zheng Tan's previous record of running around and causing trouble, and added: "It's in this yard, don't run too far away. , or grounded."

Zheng Tan couldn't hold it anymore, staying here and listening to these people chatting might as well go outside and find a shady place to sleep, it's too noisy here.

Seeing that Zheng Tan wanted to go out, Boss Cai, who was closest to the door, got up and opened the door to let Zheng Tan go out. Father Jiao, who was planning to get up and open the window, sat down again after seeing this.

However, just as Zheng Tan went out through the crack of the door over there, Tofu squeezed through the crack of the door behind him. In the summer, people's dogs would squeeze into air-conditioned rooms, and this guy wanted to run outside to have fun in the pool whenever he had time.

Boss Cai looked at the shady place in the yard, the sun was slanting in the afternoon, and the side of the pool was not in the sun now. Seeing that the tofu was squeezing the door and humming, he opened the door and let it go out, so as to save the trouble. Guys are noisy here.

Zheng Tan and Tofu went out, Mars looked at Shu Dong pitifully, Shu Dong choked, "Forget it, let it go out to play, anyway, no one in the yard came over."

After the two big dogs went out, they ran directly to the pool, while Zheng Tan walked slowly to the side of a rockery and jumped on it. There is shade here.

Squatting on the rockery, Zheng Tan planned to find a place to have a good night's sleep. The energy he expended today has not fully recovered.

Just as Zheng Tan was squinting his eyes and preparing to fall asleep, his ears moved, and he heard a familiar voice.

Opening his eyes, he looked over there, listened carefully with his ears up, ignoring the noise made by Tofu and Mars, Zheng Tan caught a very familiar voice not far from here. It is familiar, but it also exists in Zheng Tan's impression. I haven't heard it again in the past few years when I became a cat. Now when I hear it, I can still distinguish it immediately. No sleep at all.

Immediately, he jumped off the rockery, climbed up a tree, and used the tree to climb over the walls around the yard.

In the private room, Papa Jiao was chatting with Shu Dong and Boss Cai, and he also paid attention to the situation outside the yard from time to time. He was sitting at an angle where he could see part of the yard through the window. Just now, he saw Zheng Tan lying on the rockery and preparing to take a nap. I was still relieved, but when I turned around to chat for a few words and looked over, I saw that little bastard jumped over the wall.

Professor Jiao's forehead burst with veins.

Just now I told him to only play in the yard, but he jumped over the wall and ran away in a blink of an eye. Sure enough, you still have to be banned.

"Don't worry, I'll just let someone watch it, and I won't run out of their sight. Except for the client's private room, there are surveillance cameras in the corridors and some places outside." Shu Dong said.

Papa Jiao really wanted to tell Mr. Shu that a cat is no better than a dog. It is not something you can monitor if you want to. If you don't pay attention, it will disappear. What's more, the cat in his family has a serious criminal record, but no one will believe many things if he tells them.

Zheng Tan forgot Papa Jiao's advice again, and now he is looking for the sound to go there. The buildings here are not tall, basically two-story and three-story, and they are easy to flip.

With Zheng Tan's rich experience in climbing over walls and climbing stairs, he soon saw the owner of that voice, after all, he was not far away.

At the end of a long corridor, there was a well-dressed woman in her early thirties standing there talking on the phone with an impatient look on her face.

"Your own son, don't you care about looking for me? What can I say? If you want money for money and a house for a house, how can I let go of my responsibility? Okay, I'm busy now, I have made arrangements this afternoon, I don't have time... ..."

Zheng Tan knew who she was calling and who they were talking about.

Although I thought about many possibilities when I came to Nancheng, I didn't expect to see these two people on the same day. I saw my own father three hours ago, and now I also saw my own mother. One always takes different lovers to have fun, and one contacts a few wealthy wives to exchange feelings and expand his career when he is free. Basically, he doesn't care much about Zheng Tan except for giving money. Back then, Zheng Tan's personality became so The bad have their responsibilities too.

I can't tell what I feel, and I can't talk about disappointment and sadness. It's probably because I knew it would happen a long time ago, so I didn't have any hope.

The person standing in the corridor immediately disconnected the phone after speaking, with the same expression on his face, it was obvious that this person was in a bad mood.

In Zheng Tan's memory, he often saw such an impatient expression.

Pushing a strand of hair blown to her forehead by the wind behind her ears, the woman standing there took a deep breath, looked at the surrounding scenery and wanted to adjust her mood. There is a circular garden sculpture pool with a height of nearly two meters in diameter.

There are some water lilies planted in the white round sculpture, and the white water lilies are now blooming.

The white lotus, the white sculptural pool, and, in stark contrast, the black cat.

The woman stands on the veranda, looking at the cat standing on the edge of the pool.

The black cat squatting on the edge of the pool also looked at her quietly.

The movement of the woman's hair froze, and she always felt a little guilty for no reason when she looked at those cat eyes.

At this moment, the door of a private room opened, and a woman in her thirties came out.

"Hey, are you done with the phone call? I'll wait for you if you're missing three or one."

The impatience on Zheng Tan's mother's face immediately faded away, and she responded with a smile: "Okay, okay, see you are in a hurry." Then he walked into the private room, went into the private room and looked at the pool again, Then turned around, walked into the room, and closed the door.

The window of that private room was blocked by curtains, Zheng Tan couldn't see clearly what was going on inside, but he knew the rich ladies who often hang out with his mother.

Withdrawing his gaze, Zheng Tan looked at the water lilies in the pool, and raised his hand to pluck the nearest flower.

Tsk, still inexplicably upset!

There are also a few small fish swimming under the lotus leaves, I don't know what species they are. After Zheng Tan finished picking the flowers, he started to shoot at the small fish that swam to the surface, scaring them back into the water again.

The two people who were secretly staring at Zheng Tan because of Boss Cai's and Shu Dong's orders exchanged glances.

"Is that cat really okay with that?"

"it should be no problem?"

"It was brought back by the boss's son when he went on a trip. I heard that it is not available in the local area. Not only is the fish beautiful, but it also doesn't eat leaves like the koi carp raised before. It's not easy to get it if it's gone."

"But I haven't seen it eating fish. It seems that the cat is just playing with it. Didn't the boss say that as long as it's nothing serious, don't worry about it?"

"Then stop it after it really eats it?"

"Yeah. To catch thieves is to catch stolen goods. Not only can we not catch filth in the past, what should we do if we scare it away? It's not easy to catch cats once they run away."

"Right."

When Zheng Tan didn't want to take pictures of fish anymore, he jumped off the sculpture pool, climbed over the wall and went back, passing by the corner where the two people were standing, Zheng Tan stood at a high place and took a look at them, the two were making fun of each other, and they were still catching stolen goods.

Seeing the cat leave, the two standing there were a little puzzled.

"Why do I feel like that cat just despised me?"

"……Feel the same."
