My Inner Thoughts Are Heard by the Entire Noble Academy

Chapter 69

In an instant, Fu Huixing's face burned fiercely. He wanted to use his hand to help cool his face but felt that this action would be too abrupt, so he forcibly restrained himself, allowing the heat to dissipate on its own.

When he put his foot down, he didn't use much force, but the Feather Duster pretended to be in great pain.

"Our little star is really amazing, going out once and bringing back three kittens," the Feather Duster praised Fu Huixing generously, thinking that he must make the boss's image more impressive in the eyes of his female classmate.

The tabby cat nearby was dissatisfied and couldn't help but meow. What was wrong with this human? It had been standing here for so long, and this colorful human hadn't even noticed?

"Stop messing around, there's a litter of kittens here. Give them a check-up."

"Oh my, there's such a beautiful tabby cat too. You've had quite a fruitful day, haven't you?"

Cats are very perceptive creatures. When the "Feather Duster" complimented its beauty, it seemed to understand and immediately flopped onto the ground, showing off its body to the three humans present.

This amused the three humans greatly.

Though the "Feather Duster" spoke frivolously, he was quite reliable when it came to action. He put the three kittens into a pet carrier, bent down to scoop up the posing tabby with one hand, and carried the mother and her three children into the examination room.

Fu Huixing explained to Shi Li, "He's taking the cats to check if they have any diseases."

Shi Li nodded. Although the "Feather Duster" hadn't said it, she could guess.

Only Shi Li and Fu Huixing were left in the room. Shi Li had quite a few questions but felt they were too personal and might seem like prying into someone's privacy if asked.

Not talking felt awkward, but if she opened her mouth, Shi Li was afraid she wouldn't be able to control her unfiltered speech and gossipy heart.

She could only resort to scrolling through her phone to create the illusion of being busy, avoiding the awkwardness between them.

[Thank goodness for technology]

After opening her phone, she found an unread message from Gu Yuqing from a few minutes ago, asking if there were many people queuing at the milk tea shop, which was why she hadn't returned yet.

It was only then that Shi Li remembered she had gone out to buy milk tea.

On the way, she heard the kittens' cries and had completely forgotten about buying milk tea and Gu Yuqing.

Seeing that Shi Li hadn't returned for a long time, even if there had been a long queue, she should have been back by now under normal circumstances.

Worried that something might have happened to Shi Li, Gu Yuqing sent a message to inquire. If Shi Li didn't reply for a long time, she was even considering calling the police.

She felt that Shi Li was unlucky enough to encounter robbers even near the school campus, which was truly unbelievable.

Shi Li thought: How can that be my fault?

After a few minutes without a reply from Shi Li, Gu Yuqing sent another message asking where she was now.

Shi Li turned into a screeching chicken [Oh my god, oh my god, I can't believe I forgot]

She replied to the message with some trepidation, [I ran into Fu Huixing on the way, and there were some things to take care of, so I just...]

Gu Yuqing was waiting for a reply on the other end of the phone, already preparing to call the school security to start searching for Shi Li.

Then she received Shi Li's text message.

[So you just went off with him??]

[Are you with him now?]

Shi Li felt guilty, knowing she was in the wrong.

[I found a litter of newborn kittens and was worried they might freeze to death outside. I happened to run into him, and we took the kittens to the vet together]

Gu Yuqing now felt like a poor husband who had been betrayed, turning into Ke Yun. She couldn't process Shi Li's explanation.

But she didn't think it was Shi Li's fault; she felt it must be Fu Huixing's scheme.

Fu Huixing, that scheming man.

Gu Yuqing wanted nothing more than to rush over and give Fu Huixing a piece of her mind, but she told herself to stay calm.

She had watched many TV dramas about cheating husbands before. What should she do in this situation?

Fu Huixing: Suggest divorce...

Yes, if she wanted to win Shi Li over, she absolutely couldn't make a scene. The more she made a fuss, the further she would push Shi Li away.

What was Shi Li's weakness? Gu Yuqing thought of Little Lin's Boiled Dishes that Shi Li often mentioned.

So she sent a message saying: [My sister and I are about to go eat. Do you want to come back and join us? It's cold outside, and I really want to eat some soup. How about we go for some boiled dishes?]

[Little Lin's Boiled Dishes?]

[Yay!]

[I'll slide right back!]

Just as she was about to reply to Gu Yuqing, Fu Huixing, who had been quietly standing in the background, suddenly spoke up, "Do you want to adopt a kitten? Cats tend to be more attached to their owners when raised from a young age."

"If you don't have that plan, it's alright too. The vet clinic will take care of these four kittens and won't let them freeze outside."

Adopt a kitten? Shi Li's heart skipped a beat.

[Oh no, my heart flutters too easily]

[Twice in one minute]

[Which one should I choose?]

[Should I choose one or two?]

Shi Li skipped the hesitation phase entirely and went straight to thinking about which kitten to choose.

[Too bad I didn't look at the kittens more carefully earlier]

[They all seem so lovely]

"If you want to adopt, you can wait until after the kittens have been examined and then choose one you like."

Shi Li nodded vigorously and replied to Gu Yuqing without hesitation.

[Things aren't finished here yet, so I won't be coming back to have dinner with you guys]

Gu Yuqing was waiting for a reply when she saw Shi Li's message saying she wouldn't be coming back.

Fu Huixing, just you wait!

The hatred of stealing a wife, this grudge will not go unavenged!

You'd better sleep with one eye open tonight!

Gu Yulan heard heavy breathing coming from beside her and looked up to see it was her sister. She asked, "Sister, are you angry? Did someone upset you?"

Gu Yuqing's eyes widened, "I'm not angry."

Gu Yulan: But sister, your nose seems to be smoking. Are you sure you're not angry?
