Chapter 536 - Ziming, did you specially prepare this for me?

She reined in her emotions and roughly wiped the tears in her eyes with her shirt sleeves.

“Xiiii!” Inhaling sharply, she slowly stepped into this house, which was once owned by her family.

She really did not expect that a day would come when she could stay in this house again.

Thinking up to that, a smile formed on her lips.

Dad, I’m home.

“Da!” She walked into the very familiar-looking house.

The cuckoo wall clock at the entrance, the brown shoe rack, and the louver door of the large wardrobe... Everything, the furnishings and furniture, was exactly as she remembered!

When she lowered her head, she was startled to find a pair of slippers in the shoe rack that was similar to the ones she had had in the past!

The only difference was that this pair of white bunny ears slippers was bigger than the pair she had used before!

“Heavens!” Her hands flew to her mouth in disbelief at the sight of these fluffy slippers.

“This pair is really similar to that one in my youth!” In her excitement, she picked up this pair of slippers and lightly stroked each. She then removed her outdoor shoes at the entrance and changed into these slippers she had not seen in a long time.

The moment she wore the warm and comfy slippers, she felt very relaxed.

She even felt as if the house had returned to that time in the past. At that, an unspeakable sense of bliss filled her heart.

Living room, kitchen, dining room...

She explored the first floor and began to wonder whether it was the house or her that had traveled back in time.

All the furniture, decoration, and set up... Everything was as she remembered.

“Amazing...” This was the umpteenth time she had said this.

A blissful smile bloomed on her face as she returned to the living room.

“This is really the same as that!”

She was about to take a seat on the floral-printed, European-style sofa when a white cat with grey spots on its head appeared at the wooden staircase.

“Meow!”

“AH!”

Ji Ziming, who was lecturing his assistant outside the house, went pale the moment he heard her scream from inside the house.

He turned around, pushed his subordinate aside, and rushed into the house with fear in his eyes.

“What’s wrong, Pei Ge?”

The man, who had anxiously dashed inside at her scream, only found that the silly her...

“Ji Ziming, how did you find my house’s Pudding?!”

When she saw the man enter, she excitedly brought the fat cat to him.

His face soured at the sight of the fat cat in her embrace.

“CEO Ji, Miss Pei, is everything all right?”

It was in this moment that Du Wen arrived from outside the house.

“Du Wen, what is going on with this cat?!” He shifted his gaze onto his assistant at the sight of the woman busily cuddling the cat without a care for him.

Chills ran down the assistant’s spine when his boss posed that question through gritted teeth.

“CEO Ji, didn’t you order for this house to be restored into its look when Miss Pei’s family still owned it?” the assistant whispered.

“The last owner of this house told us that Miss Pei’s family used to have a cat but did not bring it along with them when they moved houses. The cat then kept appearing nearby...”

The man inhaled deeply and tried to suppress his anger.

“Go straight to the point.”

“We found a cat that matched the owner’s description and photograph of it.” The subordinate hastened to explain as he felt his boss’s mounting fury.

“Who asked you to find that cat?!” he exclaimed through gritted teeth. He was even more infuriated when he saw that the d*mn cat was cozily lying on her *****.

“Ah? CEO Ji, didn’t you order us to replicate how everything in this house was before?” The assistant was confused now. He had spent a long time, not to mention a significant amount of money, just to get this purebred Ragdoll cat.

The Ragdoll cat was the hardest to replicate, all right?!

“What are you guys talking about?”

She, whose focus had been on the cat this whole time, came to realize that something was off and looked suspiciously at the two men whispering to each other at the side.

Seeing the suspicion on her face, the man clenched his fists and, with looks that could kill, glared at his assistant and then at her.

“Oh, nothing.” With that, he walked toward her.

She looked at the man walking over with happiness and exclaimed, “Ziming, this was specially set up by you, right? Why does this house have its original decor? Plu-Plus, this used to be my family’s house in the past! Did you specially arrange this?”

The man, who was initially feeling discontented with the cat, cheered up a bit upon hearing the happiness in her voice.

He lifted his chin slightly and looked at her before coldly replying, “Of course not.”

“... Ah?” She was stunned silly by his reply.

Never mind that he bought her family’s old house, if he did not specially arrange this, how could everything be so coincidental?

For this house to have the same interior decoration as before, how coincidental could it get?!

“...” Du Wen, who was about to leave the house to give the pair some privacy, could not help smirking and rolling his eyes at his boss’s reply to her.

Qie! My dear boss, can you not be so proud to keep up this pretense and just tell Miss Pei the truth, can you?
