Chapter 467: Is there a Cat Around Here who Shares the Same Name?
Qiao Qing paused her steps and turned her head.
“Sister, it’s really you! Are you here for Xiaoqi?” Jun Xiaoqi rushed over with an excited smile on his face.
The security guard blanked out, “You guys know each other?”
The other security guard poked him in the ribs, “You know who she looks like to me? She looks like our third young master’s girlfriend!”
Qiao Qing’s eyelids twitched. Did she end up in Jun Yexuan’s home?
Jun Xiaoqi glared at them, “What do you mean they look alike? She is my third brother’s girlfriend, okay?”
His words made the security guards’ mouths drop.
Jun Xiaoqi no longer paid attention to these people and grabbed onto Qiao Qing’s hands, “Sister, let’s have dinner together.”
Qiao Qing’s lips quivered but she didn’t move.
Jun Qiaoqi pouted, “Sister, my third brother hasn’t been home, ever. I’ve been eating alone every day and I don’t even have someone to talk to. I’m so lonely.”
“...” Qiao Qing sighed and patted his head.
Alright then.
Jun Xiaoqi instantly smiled from ear to ear. The speed at which his expression changed dumbfounded the security guards.
As Qiao Qing walked, she messaged Han Zhi and Qi Yusen.
When they got closer to the house, they heard a tiger howl.
Qiao Qing froze. Within seconds, a giant white tiger emerged from the side and pounced on her.
She focused her spiritual energy on a palm and prepared to fatally strike the tiger. Just then, someone scolded, “Qingqing!”
Qiao Qing thought Jun Xiaoqi was calling for her. However, very soon realized that that wasn’t the case.
The tiger that was just furious was now lying on the ground, perfectly docile. Its giant head even b.u.t.ted against Jun Xiaoqi’s legs, as if asking him for attention.
Jun Xiaoqi felt guilty, “Sister, did it scare you? I forgot about this big animal. But with me here, it won’t hurt you!”
Then, he asked for the butler and instructed, “Send Qingqing back to the cage!”
The butler nodded and walked over to get the tiger.
Qiao Qing, who had been dumbfounded now for a long while, looked over to Jun Xiaoqi, “What did you call it?”
Jun Xiaoqi, “Qingqing.”
Then, he scratched his head, “What is it? Why are you looking at me like that?”
Qiao Qing asked, “Qing, as in green?”
Jun Xiaoqi nodded, “How did you know?”
He’s only interacted with Qiao Qing a few times and all of their interactions had been slow. Even now, he still hasn’t realized that Jun Yexuan’s nickname for Qiao Qing was Qingqing.
Qiao Qing asked again, “Is there a cat around here who shares the same name?”
“Cat? Why would my third brother have a cat? Even with this tiger – when it was brought over to him, he was worried that it would be too gentle since it’s a girl.”
Jun Xiaoqi continued, “But, there is an interesting story behind its name. Before, its name wasn’t Qingqing. My third brother changed its name after he came back from the City of Brisk.”
“Some time ago, my third brother gave it a new name. But no matter what he did, the tiger refused to respond to its new name. Brother Mu even asked our butler to hire a Fengshui master to check if this tiger’s been cursed.”
“Guess what that master said? The master said that my third brother looks at the tiger far too lovingly and far too gently when he calls it ‘Qingqing’. So, the tiger has set its heart on that name and refuses to change it. Hahaha!”
“Huh? Sister? What’s wrong?”
Jun Xiaoqi saw the look on Qiao Qing’s face and he shuddered.
She was smiling, but why was her smile scarier than when her face was tense? She was just like his third brother.
Qiao Qing said to the butler, who was trying to take Qingqing away, “Just leave it here.”
