Chapter 447 - 447: What Bad Thoughts Could A Cat Have?
Lin Gantang returned to the bookstore. Today was the cats’ routine health checkup, so Lin Gantang took the opportunity to shoot a video of the checkup. Since she had nothing to do, she went to the second floor and found a corner to sit down and edit it on her computer.
After learning editing seriously some time ago, she was now very familiar with it.
Ximi refused to open for business today and kept sticking to her side. Lin Gantang touched it every now and then. It didn’t seem satisfied and jumped onto the table, laying down on the computer.
Lin Gantang, who was editing, was at a loss for words.
She carried the cat down, and Ximi turned around and came back. She stepped on the keyboard and lay down again.
Lin Gantang pushed it away, and it came back like flowing water. It didn’t even let her move. Once she touched the keyboard, it reached out its claws to press on her hand.
What bad intentions could a cat have? It just wanted to play with you.
Lin Gantang stopped editing. Since she wasn’t in a hurry, she simply found a cat teaser and started playing with Ximi.
After a while, she saw Gu Zhichuan walking over.
Lin Gantang frowned slightly.
Gu Zhichuan had been coming to the bookstore a little too frequently recently.
He stopped in front of the table and placed a cup of milk tea next to the computer. “You like this,” he said. “I passed by and brought you a cup since it’s on the way.”
Lin Gantang didn’t say she wanted it.
Gu Zhichuan knew that she liked milk tea because he had seen Wen Yanqing buy milk tea for her twice. He had never paid attention to this before.
Gu Zhichuan’s eyes dimmed. He was afraid that she would reject him, so he did not stay any longer. “I’ll leave first. I won’t disturb you.”
Gu Zhichuan also left happily, unlike how he used to be.
Lin Gantang saw the change in him, but her heart remained calm.
She took the laptop and locked it, not even drinking the milk tea on the table.
After Lin Gantang left, Shi Muzhen came out from behind the bookshelf. She stood in front of the cup of milk tea for a long time, her eyes filled with complicated and dark emotions.
Lin Gantang didn’t return for a long time. Shi Muzhen picked up her milk tea and walked out.
She stood outside the bookstore and did not see Gu Zhichuan. Shi Muzhen tightened her grip on the milk tea and smashed it onto the road. She then left with a straight face.
The cup of milk tea shattered, and the milk tea splattered all over the ground.
Lin Gantang locked her laptop and came out with Ximi in her arms. She realized that the milk tea was gone. She looked around but didn’t see anything. Although she felt it strange, she didn’t continue looking.
In the evening, Lin Gantang sent Wen Yanqing a message, saying that she was going to look for him later. Then, she put down her phone.
“Boss, Sweet Wine is gone,” Qian Ruoxi said anxiously as she walked over.
Lin Gantang got up and searched the shop, but she really couldn’t find any trace of Sweet Wine.
“Let’s take a look at the surveillance cameras.” It would be terrible if it ran outside. Who knew if it could find its way back.
Hence, Lin Gantang and Qian Ruoxi were checking the surveillance footage in front of the computer when they came across Shi Muzhen stealing her milk tea.
Lin Gantang furrowed her brows and did not say anything. She stared at the screen and continued to look for Sweet Wine.
Sweet Wine had been active on the first floor until it played with a girl in green. The girl opened the door and left, and it slipped out through the crack in the door.
The girl was checking the books she had bought as she walked. It was unknown whether she had noticed Sweet Wine, but she didn’t walk in the same direction as Sweet Wine.
Sweet Wine ran away.
“I’ll go look for it,” Lin Gantang said to Qian Ruoxi.
A pampered Ragdoll cat had poor disease resistance and was also weak at surviving on its own. If it was not found, Sweet Wine would suffer.
She took out a photo of Sweet Wine on her phone and asked people along the way. A few shops away, an employee said that he had seen it and pointed the way. Lin Gantang searched for it along the way..
