The manâs expression turned even uglier.
He had picked the cat up outside the neighborhood. He took it home when he saw that it was beautiful. When he came back, he found that the cat was in good condition and was worth a lot of money. He might as well sell it to make some money. Later, when he saw that his daughter liked it, he kept it. He had no intention of returning it.
He took off Sweet Wineâs collar and threw it away, and kept it at home.
He just didnât expect the catâs owner to come to him so quickly.
He looked at the man and woman in front of him. âHow did my cat become yours? Go and look for your cat if you lost it. It has nothing to do with my family.â
With that, he wanted to close the door.
He didnât expect Xiao Wan to be so strong despite looking young and thin. He held the door tightly and didnât let go at all. The man couldnât do anything about it.
âI have all the videos and photos of Sweet Wine here. Which one do you want to see? Oh, right, Iâm afraid you donât know that Sweet Wine is an internet celebrity. There are probably people all over the country who can prove that it belongs to the Cat Bookstore,â Lin Gantang said.
The man did not pay attention to cute pets on the internet. He did not expect this. His expression was ugly and he did not say anything.
âIâm very grateful for your care of Sweet Wine all this time and Iâm willing to pay you for it. But please return Sweet Wine â itâs my cat,â Lin Gantang said. âDaddy?â The little girl subconsciously looked at the man when she heard Lin Gantangâs words. Her eyes were filled with doubt. âDaddy?â
âNiu Niu, go in,â the man said.
âYou can go in, but please put Sweet Wine down.â Xiao Wan grabbed the door.
âDaddy, are they here to snatch Mimi?â The little girl hugged Sweet Wine nervously.
Sweet Wine probably felt uncomfortable after being hugged too tightly and struggled to get out of the little girlâs arms. Sweet Wine was heavy, and the little girl was young and didnât have the strength to hold onto it, so Sweet Wine jumped out of her arms.
âDaddy, Mimi is running away!â the little girl hurriedly shouted.
Lin Gantang gently picked up Sweet Wine. Sweet Wine meowed twice without resisting. âLittle girl, weâre not snatching Mimi. Itâs just that Mimi is originally my cat.â
The little girl was stunned when she heard that. Then, her eyes turned red and she looked like she was about to cry. She hid behind her father and pulled at his clothes. She felt wronged. âDaddy, my Mimi.â
The man gritted his teeth. He didnât dare to say anything harsh with his daughter here. His face tensed up. âThis cat and Niu Niu are fated. You see, theyâre playing well. Canât you give it to us?â
Xiao Wan was shocked. âThis is the cat we bought. Just because you say theyâre fated, we have to give it to you?â
âIf I didnât pick it up, would you have found it? Maybe it would have died wandering outside,â the man said stiffly.
Lin Gantang saw the little girl hiding behind her father, holding back her tears. She said, âIf your child likes it, you can buy one. Or I can give you a kitten as a token of gratitude for taking Sweet Wine in. But Sweet Wine is my cat.â
âMy family likes cats. We donât want your kittens.â The manâs expression was ugly. He liked the one in her hand.
âIf you like cats, you can get one for yourself. Itâs against the law to seize other peopleâs property, sir. Set a good example for her,â Lin Gantang said coldly. âThe child is right here. Do you want to be a bad role model?
âWe cannot give Sweet Wine to you.â Lin Gantangâs expression was not too worried. âLet your daughter go in; you and I stay here. So if we canât reach an agreement, and I can only ask the police to come over, she wonât be frightened.â
Seeing that Lin Gantang had really taken out her phone to make a call, the manâs expression changed quickly. âAlright, donât call the police. Iâll give you the cat! Bad luck!â
With that, he slammed the door.
The cries of the little girl could be heard from the house. There was also the manâs angry scolding. âWhy are you crying? Thatâs not your cat!â
Lin Gantang frowned..
