Chapter 841 - 839: Meow-san~ What Are You Doing

When everyone’s eyes gathered on Zero’s hand, the atmosphere in the private room was strangely quiet.

Qian Zhubin’s face looked as if it had four words written on it—"incredulous"!

When everyone thought that Mo Jingchun’s "getting the short end of the stick" referred to some workplace pettiness, no one expected Mo Jingchun didn’t play by the rules at all but rather sent Zero to buy a pair of small shoes instead.

This is literally putting on small shoes!

Indeed, the thought process of a tech genius is completely different from ordinary people. Otherwise, why would they be called tech giants?

After handing the shoes to the boss, Zero stood smilingly behind him, looking expectantly at the dumbfounded Qian Zhubin.

Expecting his ass, Qian Zhubin swallowed as he looked at the small shoes in his brother’s hand, this unexpected test was truly baffling.

The shoes were small, they would be slightly large for Candy to wear, but the pink upper was just right, Candy’s favorite color.

However, Candy only looked cheerfully at Qian Zhubin, who might be her future brother-in-law. A noble person does not snatch what others love. How could adorable little Candy compete with her future brother-in-law for shoes?

"Come, come, try them on for size."

Hearing this, Qian Zhubin let out an awkward laugh and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Xiaochunzi..."

"Hmm?!"

"Big Brother, I’m your long-lost brother, how about letting these shoes go? I’ll treat you to a big meal."

Just then, Candy enthusiastically raised her hand and grinned, saying, "No way, my brother and I have already had dinner."

The next second, Zhou Yaling stood up and pulled Candy into her arms, covering Candy’s peachy little mouth with her hand.

She gave Candy, who was making trouble, a stern look and said, "If you say one more word, just see if I don’t take care of you when we get home tonight."

Candy’s eyes rolled around and she glanced at her brother.

Seeing her brother feign ignorance, Candy chickened out.

"You heard it, we’ve already eaten."

Looking at the flustered Qian Zhubin, Mo Jingchun’s heart was overjoyed.

Beside him, Zhou Yaling couldn’t take it anymore. She frowned slightly and snorted lightly, "I pursue free love. If I like it, it’s fine, even if it’s just a pile of shit, it’s my own choice."

Zhou Yaling’s shocking words truly stunned everyone in the room.

The even more embarrassed Qian Zhubin gently bumped Zhou Yaling’s arm and whispered, "Can you use a different analogy?"

"What are you afraid of? My boss doesn’t eat people."

He might not eat people, but he couldn’t withstand the intimidating presence of a former bunkmate who’s now overwhelmingly authoritative, to say nothing of the fact that he was dating the guy’s sister.

"Alright, you two stop acting." Mo Jingchun smirked disdainfully. Performing in front of him and Zero seemed a bit redundant.

Whether it’s real or fake can be seen at a glance.

Shaking his head and sighing, Mo Jingchun was just a little unhappy. The son becoming the brother-in-law, the relationship was now on equal footing.

"Candy, you take the shoes. You can wear them in a couple of years."

"I don’t want them; they belong to brother-in-law."

Hearing this, Mo Jingchun was silent for a moment, then looked up at the harmonious Zhou Yaling and Qian Zhubin and said lightly, "How about you two have a kid quickly, these shoes will be usable in ten years."

Looking at the pink shoes passed into his hands, Qian Zhubin was a bit at a loss.

However, Mo Jingchun didn’t give him too much time to think and directly asked, "So, when are you two meeting the parents?"

"How about tomorrow? I’ll invite my uncle over for lunch."

"Isn’t that too fast." Zhou Yaling said somewhat reluctantly.

On the way home late at night, Candy was grinning with a big watermelon in her arms.

In Mo Jingchun’s hand, there was also a watermelon.

To Candy, this was the biggest haul of the day.

"I have two watermelons, one bought by my brother and one by my future brother-in-law."

Candy had already planned, one watermelon would be chilled, and the other juiced.

"Can’t finish, can’t finish, simply can’t finish."

In the car, looking at Candy, who was lost in thought, Zero’s lips curved slightly.

The boss had just had a stomach ache from eating watermelon; she had a thousand reasons to believe that the boss wouldn’t allow Candy to eat too much watermelon in one day.

As for chilled watermelon, she shouldn’t even think about it.

Seeing Zero’s smiling face, Candy said with a smile, "Zero, if you could taste delicious food too, I’d share half with you!"

"Forget about food, sharing half of your pocket money, now that’s something I’d consider."

In an instant, Candy looked at Zero with complete vigilance.

"I knew it, you and brother are both after my pocket money!"

"Hmph~ you clearly also have New Year’s money."

"All your New Year’s money is hidden inside brother’s aircraft carrier model, don’t think I don’t know."

Seeing Zero’s startled look, Candy thoroughly enjoyed herself. These days, who doesn’t have a little secret?

When they got home, it was already past ten at night.

Putting the watermelon down, Candy immediately changed into slippers at the doorstep.

"Bun, we’re back."

"Huh, where’s Bun?"

Sliding open the storage room door, there was no sign of Bun, though the bowl was completely clean, not a morsel of cat food left.

"Meow~"

On the curtain in Candy’s third floor bedroom, Bun was hanging, unable to get down.

Sharp claws, at this moment, were instead a hindrance.

When Candy saw a cat-length curtain, she exclaimed in surprise.

Just as Candy was about to rescue Bun, she was taken aback to find a hole in the curtain, perfectly sized to trap Bun’s claw.

With cat and evidence in plain sight, Bun couldn’t argue his way out of this.

"Meowson, what are you up to, Meowson?"

"You’re done for, Kitty-san~"

"Meow~"

"Brother~ Brother~"

Candy immediately turned to call for her brother.

With such a big hole in the curtain, she, Candy, wouldn’t take the blame for it.

With no pocket money left, where would she get the money for a new curtain?

"Why are you yelling in the middle of the night?" Mo Jingchun frowned slightly.

Fortunately, the nearby villas were all his, otherwise, it might attract complaints from the neighbors.

In the city, unlike the countryside, managing neighborly relations is the toughest challenge.

Candy, holding Mo Jingchun’s hand, said gravely, "Brother, bad news. Bun made trouble again; it clawed a hole in my bedroom curtain."

"Bun is still hanging there, Brother, go take a look."

A curious Zhou Yaling followed them upstairs.

Upon entry, the sight of Bun on the curtain was eye-catching.

"Meow~"

At this moment, Candy rescued Bun.

Stroking Bun’s fur, Candy said with pity in her eyes, "Meowson, you’re done for, but don’t worry, you’ve got a friend this time with Little Grey, you’ve shared your troubles."

The next morning, Candy, in her pajamas, looked at Bun and Little Grey tied up, with no surprise in her eyes.
