Tang Wan took a picture of himself wearing the ring. However, he didn’t want to show off and pass it around the Internet. The ring’s price wasn’t low. It wouldn’t be good if other people said that he was flaunting his wealth. The one on Zong He’s was simple and tasteful. Looking back at his own, Tang Wan couldn’t contain his laughter. That one was probably a gift when he bought this one! It was like when buying a golden arowana and a large tank, a smaller tank was gifted with it.
Tang Wan was in a good mood. He had an extra half bowl of rice during dinner that evening. He happily pulled Zong He out for a stroll, not feeling tired at all.
While they were walking, he told Zong He all about his little lady almost being stolen away, “The two people who were following me are very capable, and Ji Yan is also very powerful. Did they tell you about this?”
Zong He nodded. “They will be dealt with according to the law, so you can relax.”
Tang Wan clenched his fist, and angrily said: “I only just kicked that person’s leg! I haven’t vented my anger yet!”
Zong He looked at his hand with a subtle gaze, as if to say, ‘your fist can hurt people’?
Tang Wan laughed grimly. He couldn’t compare with those extreme combat Saiyans.
Zong He also reminded him: “It would be better if you didn’t leave home in the future. When you went out, your cat was stolen. What if you go out and get kidnapped next time? There might not even be a mouse left.”
Tang Wan unhappily asked: “Does your mouth need to be so poisonous?! That was just a curse!”
Zong He raised his eyebrow slightly and he magnanimously said: “Very well. Wherever you go, I can find you and help bring you back. You can relax and go out to play.”
Tang Wan laughed, then sneakily and covertly asked: “So you’re still worried that I would leave. We didn’t know each other before, how were you so good to me the moment you woke up? What did you like about me?”
Zong He looked at him, frowned, and remained silent for a moment. “You were married to me. If you left, would I have any face left?” He noticed that Tang Wan’s gaze towards him had changed. The Marshal’s formidable survival instincts allowed him to react instantly; “I’m just teasing you, you’re good-looking.”
Tang Wan wordlessly rolled his eyes. He sounded like an unscrupulous rogue. If he truly was so superficial, the Marshal wouldn’t have remained single until now. Forget it, he’s considering it......love at first sight. Having been matched with a large cat, this life was perfect.
After they reached Tang Wan’s goal of “one hundred steps after dinner”, the pair went back to rest. When they quickly reached the door, Zong He suddenly reminded him: “No one has different types of abilities, so just use your summoning ability. Don’t use your healing ability in front of others.”
Tang Wan’s footsteps paused and he stiffly turned around. There was some kind of helplessness in his eyes, had he been exposed?!
While Tang Wan’s heart was uncertain, Zong He rubbed his head and pulled his hand along, “Let’s go.”
Tang Wan pursed his lips. He was wordlessly dragged by Zong He back into the foyer. “You......aren’t going to ask any questions?”
Zong He smiled. “There’s no need.”
Tang Wan stopped, not moving any further. “You aren’t afraid that I’ll cause trouble for you?”
“Pft!” It was as if Zong He had heard a huge joke and he laughed, like he was saying, ‘with your ability, are you sure?’
Tang Wan pouted. He was originally very touched, but he was so roused by this big cat that he just wanted to smack someone.
But his mood was still very good!

The matter of Mulan almost being stolen had spread on the Internet. Both Tang Wan’s and Luo Bing Jun’s fans. After learning that the two circles’ big stars cooperated, they all cried out in unison: I’ll kill that son of a bitch!
Everyone knew that Mulan was valuable! Everyone wanted it! With this kind of walking fossil on the Imperial Star, wanting one was a very common mentality. However, if you wanted to steal it, then you were in the wrong. Stealing something of such high value, would they be sentenced to several lifetimes?
Very quickly, the people who were asking around uncovered a piece of news that said that Mulan was the only ragdoll cat in the galaxy, priced at 10 million star coins. This was higher than Jin Xiao Pang’s 7 million star coins by 3 million star coins. The reporter that wanted to steal Mulan would be immediately sent to trial. His press room was also implicated, and the boss personally appeared to apologize, saying that the way his subordinates handled the affair was harmful. He had been inscribed as a person of immoral schemes. He had failed the responsibility of being ‘the eyes and ears of the Empire’s people’. The people of the Empire were good and honest. If one had a good attitude, then they’d be pardoned, but would be continued to be monitored.
They hadn’t expected there to be such a fuss. Because of the boss’ attitude, the studio had become well known.
Tan Wan had also specially noted the studio’s name: Feng Da News Studio.
Because this incident had caused an uproar on the Internet, the record of this little reporter’s trial had also been posted on the Internet. He had stolen something that was worth 10 million, he was given a life sentence. The Netizens all exclaimed: Who would dare to steal after this? Too expensive! The currents laws are too strict!
The uproar from this matter hadn’t subsided, but the Netizen’s focus had begun to shift. Stealing a cat wasn’t extraordinary, what would be extraordinary would be stealing “Love Across a Thousand Years”. The national treasure had been appraised at 1.3 billion yuan. If you stole it, your fame could soar to the heavens in one move!
Tang Wan only paid attention to his cats, and held no interest towards “Love Across a Thousand Years”. He felt that it was just a piece of art, and he didn’t have the eye to truly appreciate it.
Just as the situation was coming to an end, Luo Bing Jun had also taken the opportunity to make a full photo album. His studio had tagged Tang Wan and publicized it along with Luo Bing Jun’s new album. At this point, Luo Bing Jun had the best photo album in the whole circle. Some people had tried to take pictures with meng pets before, but they were all defeated by Luo Bing Jun. Their delusion had ended. Compared to the aggressive and high powered pets like black bears, the cute, sweet pets that Tang Wan had provided wormed into people’s hearts. The hit rate for Luo Bing Jun’s new album had soared to first place overnight, gaining three times the number of clicks that the second place received. Heavenly King Luo had once again set the galaxy on fire.
Tang Wan, who had been linked to Luo Bing Jun, and had followed him in storming the entertainment circle. He had become the meng pet blogger known throughout the entire Empire, and his popularity had reached an all-time high.
Tang Wan was satisfied to see his following rise. This was the result he had wanted!
Looking at the popularity rating on his own system, Tang Wan had really stuck it rich this time. Short-hair cats, short-legged cats, persian cats, highland cats, folded-ear cats, buy buy buy!
Looking at the crowd of fur children, Tang Wan wanted to hear a spirit-lifting song and pulled Xuan Feng over. Tang Wan held a handful of melon seeds to tease it, “Feng ah, Daddy will teach you how to sing a song. Yo-ho ~ I have already reached the pinnacle of life~”
Xuan Feng watched, stupefied, as all of the cats attentively watched it. It had been so scared that it was motionless, never mind being able to sing.
Tang Wan urged it with melon seeds. “Don’t you have a sharp tongue? Haven’t I taught you how to scold other people? Why is it so hard to sing?”
Xuan Feng looked at its stiff wings, then carefully looked all around, flattening its wings. Ever since it had been beaten by Da Zhuang, Xuan Feng had developed a psychological shadow and didn’t want to stay in the same room with a cat. Now it was in a room full of cats.
Tang Wan sighed. “Very well, if you aren’t in the mood, you don’t have to learn it. Go and ask Hong Liu to go out and play with you.”
Tang Wan released Hong Liu. Now, the purple-blue parrot was one head larger than Xuan Feng, and had begun to learn to talk. Tang Wan heard two birds on the windowsill yelling at each other: “Call me daddy!”
“Call me daddy!”
“Call me daddy!”
......
Tang Wan couldn’t help but record a video of them, along with the room full of cats, and posted it on Weibo.
Eating, sleeping, and scolding Da Zhuang: It’s been a while since my last live broadcast, I’ve kept everyone waiting for a while. The fur children will be waiting for you tonight at 7:30pm~~
The netizens were stirred up into a frenzy: Ahahahahahahah! The number is increasing again!!!
Does Xuan Feng have a companion?
Did the new bird learn how to speak from Xuan Feng? Hahahahaha “Call me daddy” is also okay!
There are so many cats, these are all cats, right, right!
A lot of cats, Grandma, quickly come and look! There are a lot of cats ah!
Tang Wan, does your family still need someone to work small jobs? The kind that shovels cat litter!
......
When Tang Wan saw that they had been stirred up like this, he logged out of Weibo, in an excellent mood. He liked seeing them energized and tripping over themselves, each one being more excited than the last. Truly too cute.
Tang Wan found a brush and went to the study to search for Zong He. At the moment, the Marshal had just finished reading the report that the Army has sent and had tiredly closed his eyes, resting against his chair to doze off. Tang Wan leaned against the door, his head peeking out. He beamed and asked: “Marshal, do you need my brushing services? My little brushing are especially good!”
From the Marshal’s point of view, the man standing by the door was a seductive, mischievous minx. Since his partner had taken the initiative, he had no reason to refuse. Zong He beckoned towards Tang Wan. “Come in and close the door.”
Tang Wan entered Zong He’s study with a smile and closed the door. It was the first time he had entered a place designated for military affairs. He curiously looked around at his surroundings, then he couldn’t help but admiringly exclaim: “Working in such a solemn environment, it’s a blessing that you haven’t turned into a bald uncle.”
Zong He loftily raised his eyebrows. Who else could have fur that had grown as proper as his?!
Tang Wan watched on blankly as the Marshal had prepared for his transformation: by undressing! Tang Wan couldn’t help but wonder, “Could it be that before your missions, you army men return to your rooms to undress first?”
Zong He transformed into a big cat lying on the wooden floors, squinting slightly. “Of course not, we have special combat outfits.”
Tang Wan heard the voice coming from below him, and only then did he turn his face back around. He approached Zong He and immediately sat on the floor. He leaned on Zong He’s stomach, brushing his fur. “Then why weren’t you wearing it?”
Zong He responded with another question: “Why should I wear combat clothes at home? Wouldn’t I be tired of it?”
Tang Wan really wanted to say that, ‘no, you aren’t tired, my eyes are tired’. No matter however good he looked, what he said was reasonable. Tang Wan rubbed his hands all over the Marshal’s smooth fur. What ‘undressing’? It was something that he could endure. To be able to rub a cat, there was nothing he couldn’t endure.
Acting as a cat petting expert, Tang Wan laughed as he brushed: “Your fur is very long. Not even Da Zhuang’s fur has this feeling. The child is still a little milk cat. The fur on his body is still very soft and not very smooth.”
Zong He narrowed his eyes and his tail flicked, pleased with himself.
Tang Wan playfully asked: “Do you want a small braid?”
Zong He opened his eyes and guardedly looked at Tang Wan. What nonsense was he stirring up?
Tang Wan had already mischievously pulled out a piece of red ribbon and eyed Zong He’s tail. He earnestly coaxed: “I feel that if you wear it on the tip of your tail, it’ll look extremely good!”
Zong He hid his tail under his belly and refused to let him touch it.
“Ai ya! How could a grown man be so narrow-minded?” Tang Wan hugged the cat’s neck and rubbed his fur. “You are the Empire’s Marshal-daren, and you can fit an aircraft carrier in your stomach. Don’t be so stingy!’
Zong He told him very solemnly: “No, I can’t fit it in. It’s no use even if you seduce me.”
Tang Wan’s face froze, and he unhappily tied the red ribbon to the Marshal’s left paw. Was there any use in resisting? If resisting had been useful, then he would have gotten a divorce long ago!
Zong He: “......”
......
At 7:00pm that evening, Tang Wan went live on schedule. He had set up the cat mask so that he wouldn’t show his face.
In the first few seconds, a barrage of comments had covered up the screen: Oh! You have already been exposed, what are you still covering your face for?
You’ve already been photographed by a reporter, it makes no difference whether you wear a mask or not!
Take it off quickly, looking at it burns my eyes!
......
Tang Wan laughed, “You tricky fools. Luo Bing Jun already said that no one photographed me when we were shooting.”
The barrage of comments knelt down and cried: Couldn’t you be a little dumb?
Tang Wan shook his head, “Cannot.”
Barrage: Is there anything about this host that won’t happily play along that’s worth seeing? Quickly release our little goddess! Begging Mulan to come out!
Tang Wan raised his hand, his ‘summoning’ movement. He smiled and said: “Very well. Everyone, pay attention. Our furry ancestors are about to come online~”
There was an unexpected silence in the broadcasting studio. Tang Wan’s special ring twinkled brightly under the light. The audience remained dead silent for ten seconds. Not even the cat that appeared on the ground could tear away their attention.
Tang Wan was bewildered. There was something off about the audience’s reaction.
At this time, the barrage came like a wolf’s howl: Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck!!!
The “Love Across a Thousand Years” is on your finger!!
The national treasure! You’re just wearing it on your finger aaaahhhh!!!
1.3 billion star coins aaaahhhhh!
Tang Wan stared blankly. What???
Tang Wan, watching Zong He strip: (ノ)ʘ﹃ʘ(ヾ)
Same Tang Tang, same
