Chapter 1070
“Ruka.” A man‘s frosty voice tinged with concern could be heard from outside the bushes.
Ruka was paralyzed in surprise. The voice... Is it Mr. Ren?
She quickly retreated backward. Since she was wearing jeans, it was not that awkward. However, she
seemed like a crazy woman the moment she squirmed out of the bush. There were a few dry leaves
stuck in her messy hair and some stains on her fair face. Her hands and clothes were dirtier with
bloodstains.
“Mr. Ren, I’m sorry. I lost your cat.” Like a child in the wrong, she lowered her head as she prepared
herself to be chided.
Still, Ren noticed the bloodstains on her finger with his keen eyes. Marching forward, he grabbed her
hand to take a look. “You‘re hurt.”
“I‘m alright. It‘s just a scratch and it doesn‘t hurt.” She hurriedly withdrew her hand and shook her head
since it was urgent to search for his cat.
Looking at the dry leaves and twigs on her hair, he gently removed them for her. She was surprised for
a few seconds while standing still to let him do the job.
After removing the grasses off her head, he ordered in a low voice, “Wash up and bandage your finger.”
“But your cat—” Her eyes slightly widened. She would never return without the cat.
“I‘ll look for her.” Gazing at her pathetic state akin to a little kitten, Ren let out a chuckle.
Embarrassed, she could not help but glanced at him. “What are you laughing at?”
“Nothing. Let‘s go.” He then patted her shoulder. “Trust me. I can find her.”
The intense regret filled her heart, for she had not foreseen herself losing his cat upon borrowing it.
“Sorry...” apologized Ruka with downcast eyes as her long lock covered her ears.
“Don‘t be silly,” he chided lightly while raising his hand, which stiffened in midair before he withdrew it.
No one knew what he was going to do except for him–he almost tucked her strands of hair behind her
ear.
