“Bang!’


In the distance, there was the sound of the night watch. The cat leaped out of the Dingyuan Marquis Household with a few light leaps. When it landed on a big tree by the roadside, the cat yawned again, and the treetops were shaken until they rustled.


The cat was most energetic at night. After scratching on the branch a few more times and sharpening its claws, it became a hundred times more energetic.


Its green eyes gleamed in the ink-black night.


At this time, there was already a curfew in the capital, so the streets were very quiet. There were no pa.s.sersby, and only the occasional night watch could be heard in the distance.


The cat flew over eaves and walls, crossed several streets, and crossed several mansions... A cold wind blew in his face. The cat clung to the wall with its front paws and climbed up with all its might.


After squatting on the wall, the calico cat looked around warily. Fortunately, no one saw it.


“Thud...”


A faint noise came from a small alley to the southeast, making the cat jump and almost slip.


Although the sound of movement from the alley was faint, the cat’s ears were sharp enough to hear it clearly.


The cat flicked its ears and walked briskly along the high wall, running in the direction of the sound. Its green eyes sparkled with the eagerness to see the world in chaos.


Let’s go watch the show!


The top of the high wall was no wider than a person’s palm, but the cat ran as if it were on flat ground. It reached the middle of the alley in two or three moves.


At best, the alley, which was only wide enough for two people to walk side by side, was empty. There was no light around and it was extremely dark.


For a cat, this bit of darkness was no obstacle at all. It was no different from daylight.


It immediately saw a tattered shoe on the ground.


The cat kicked off its hind legs and leaped gently down, walking around the dirty, broken shoe.


The shoe wasn’t big and wasn’t even as long as the cat’s limbs. It was so dirty that its original color couldn’t be seen, and there were two or three small holes in the surface.


What dirty shoes!


The calico cat wrinkled its cat face in disgust, but it resisted. It leaned over and sniffed at the broken shoe...


The cat seemed to spring up and take a few steps back. A complicated expression appeared on its round face.


How can humans be so dirty!


The cat licked its paws and washed its face. It sniffed east, sniffed west, and ran deeper into the alley, following the smell on its smelly shoes.


After running for a few hundred feet, it saw a gray carriage parked between the high walls and the shadows of the big trees. The carriage wasn’t old, but it was very clean. The black horse pulling the carriage was tall and strong.


The cat had always been curious and was a bold one. It jogged towards the carriage from the back, as silent as a ghost..


Suddenly, a slender hand suddenly reached out from another alley and accurately grabbed the back of the cat’s neck, easily lifting it up.


“Meow!


The cat let out an unhappy cry, its limbs swishing in midair, as if to say, ‘Let me go!’


‘Who is it?” A cold male voice came from the carriage in the shadows ahead.


The curtain of the carriage moved, and then the coachman in front of him glanced back and said with a smile, “Isn’t it just a cat? Look at how shocked you


After that, the carriage fell silent again.


The night wind carried the faint cries of children. When they heard it again, there seemed to be nothing.


The gray carriage only stopped for a moment before the sound of the whip sounded again. It slowly headed in the other direction of the alley.


“Meow! The cat meowed boldly as the carriage left, all four paws scrabbling in midair. The tips of its claws stuck out between its fluffy fingers, sharp as hooks and full of demonstration.


“It’s you! ‘


From behind the cat came the man’s cool voice, colder than the night wind and with a hint of gritted teeth.


Xia Houqing, who was dressed in red, raised his hand and held the long-haired calico cat in his hand. His demonic phoenix eyes narrowed dangerously, and a dangerous aura was released.


He would never forget this audacious cat. Like its owner, it was infuriating and hateful.


No, this cat was even more hateful than its owner!


The last time the cat had drunk his wine, it had sharpened its claws with his clothes.


How dare a cat step on his head?!


Xia Houqing’s eyes were filled with cold and ruthless emotions. He grabbed the cat’s neck and raised it higher.


The cat struggled a few more times in discomfort and turned its head with difficulty. “Meow? ‘


The green cat’s eyes met the dark human’s. They were less than a foot apart.


The cat’s eye in the night was as beautiful as a gem.


Both humans and cats paused.


” ” Xia Houqing looked at the kitten in his hand in a daze. The cold aura in his eyes instantly disappeared, revealing a hint of confusion.


Then he blinked, a hint of shyness in his eyes.


He crouched down and carefully placed the calico cat on the ground.


His gaze was almost level with the cat’s. He raised his hand and gently stroked the top of the cat’s head, then twice. Then he traced the feather duster-like tail from the top of its head down its back.


“Let’s go home, okay?” he asked in a low voice. His voice was as gentle as water, and his cheeks were slightly flushed.


“Meow?” “If you don’t say anything, does that mean you’ve agreed?”


“Meow!


“How nice.” Xia Houqing lowered his eyes and stared at the calico cat. He stroked the cat’s back eagerly and smoothed its fur. His other hand reached toward the soft cat’s abdomen, planning to pick it up.


“Meow, meow, meow!”


Who wants you to carry me!


Who wants to go home with you!


The cat was completely enraged. It quickly extended its front paws and punched him in the face, leaving a few dirty plum blossom marks on his jade-white cheek.


” ” Xia Houqing’s pupils dilated. His eyes struggled intensely, and his red lips tightened.


The cold and soft cat paws pressed against his face, and he could vaguely smell dried fish.


So dirty! Xia Houqing’s eyes widened slightly, and his gaze became even more intense.


The cat had no sense when it went berserk. It launched a series of indiscriminate attacks that left cat paw prints on his lapels and sleeves.


The tip of his claw accidentally hooked onto the red coral bracelet on Xia Houqing’s wrist. Each round coral bead was about the size of a pinky and was as bright as a cinnabar.


“Crack!”


The sharp cat claws broke the string on the bracelet, and the red coral beads instantly scattered and rolled to the ground.


“Meow!


The cat’s eyes lit up with joy at the sight of the bead falling.


So many beads!


The cat’s anger died as quickly as it had come.


It kicked its hind legs and jumped up, happily chasing after the beads...


The thuds and rolling sounds of the coral beads landing on the ground repeatedly struck Xia Houqing’s heart, and his eyes began to fight fiercely agam.


He gritted his teeth fiercely and moved his fingers. A fingertip- sized knife appeared between them and cut deeply into his palm.


Blood quickly overflowed from the wound and dripped to the ground from his fingers...
