Chapter 976: You Can Go To Sleep Now
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Diya heard that Ming Ye wanted to give the stray cat away, she was stunned. Seeing Ming Ye’s determined expression, she knew that he was not lying.
Seeing that the stray cat was happily eating the roasted fish, Diya suddenly felt a little sad.
She hesitated for a second before asking Ming Ye to keep the cat.
“Why don’t you let me keep it? My family should have cat food.”
On this dark rainy night, the cat was like a token sent by the heavens. It was destined to be used to connect her and this man.
Her two encounters with Ming Ye were not pleasant, but they were unforgettable. If this relationship was destined to have no results, Diya felt that it was good to have something to remember him by.
Although Diya could not be considered smart, she could tell that Ming Ye was probably in love with Su Wan.
Excluding this factor, their identities were also vastly different.
Even if Diya did not know who Ming Ye was, for him to be able to kidnap the eldest daughter of the Siswell family, it was likely that he had a bad relationship with the Siswell family.
“Are you sure you want to keep this cat?”
Ming Ye narrowed his eyes. His jade-colored eyes shone brightly in the silent night, almost catching one’s soul.
“Why, can’t I? Are you afraid that I will mistreat a stray cat?”
Diya could hear Ming Ye’s disapproval. She subconsciously raised her chin, looking like a proud young lady from a rich family. She also looked like a spoiled and sweet girl.
Although Diya was always a little arrogant towards people she did not like, when faced with people she liked in her heart, she would subconsciously reveal a little bit of her little daughter’s naivety.
This was a habit that would probably be difficult to change.
If there were outsiders around, they would probably be able to see Diya’s faintly discernible attachment to Ming Ye.
Ming Ye had always lacked the experience of interacting with girls, so he did not feel that there was anything wrong with Diya’s behavior.
Ming Ye was not moved in the slightest. His expression was indifferent as he extended his hand and pointed at the two bloody scratches on Diya’s arm. He mercilessly exposed Diya’s shortcomings.
“That stray cat doesn’t seem to like you. It even scratched you previously. Aren’t you afraid of being scratched again after adopting it?”
When Diya heard these words, she instantly felt embarrassed!
She curled her lips and looked at the stray cat that was still gnawing on the fish. She spoke with some lack of confidence.
“It’s still small. It’s normal for it to be a little shy. After I tame it for a few more days, it should be able to recognize people. How can it bite me casually?”
“Are you sure it’s afraid of strangers?”
As soon as Ming Ye finished speaking, the gray-black stray cat ran toward Ming Ye with its short legs.
The cat seemed to have eaten its fill and was very satisfied. Its two dark brown eyes were curved into the shape of crescent moons. It leaned against Ming Ye with great attachment.
It was clearly the first day they had met, but the stray cat seemed to have decided on Ming Ye. It clung to Ming Ye’s legs and refused to leave!
Diya was speechless when she saw the furry little thing.
Did this human and cat have to slap her in the face so quickly?
She was the eldest daughter of the Siswell family. She boasted that she was as beautiful as a flower, but in the eyes of a stray cat, she could not even be compared to a stinky man!
Wuwuwu… This man said that he did not like cats, and he even brought a stray cat to bully her!
This doesn’t make sense!
Diya twisted Ming Ye’s suit with resentment, and the envy and jealousy in her eyes couldn’t be mentioned.
This man clearly hated cats, and she liked cats!
…
Just as Diya was feeling indignant, Ming Ye suddenly stood up, picked up the cat, and gently placed it on Diya’s side.
The black-gray kitten clearly still didn’t like Diya, and immediately kicked its legs, wanting to jump to Ming Ye’s feet again.
However, it was stopped by Ming Ye.
Ming Ye gently stroked the cat’s fur that was still wet. His expression was as indifferent as the night.
“I will not raise you, but she is willing to raise you. Do you understand?”
As soon as Ming Ye finished speaking, the cat seemed to have sensed something. It suddenly hesitated and stopped jumping up and down.
The cat turned its head and glanced at Diya. There was disdain in its expression. It then looked back at Ming Ye pitifully. Its brown and black eyes were watery.
“Meow… meow… meow…”
If its tail had not been suppressed by Ming Ye, it would have wagged its tail and begged for mercy!
Diya stared at this scene with her mouth agape. She almost thought that the man and the cat could communicate.
What the hell!
She seemed to see what it felt like to be despised in the eyes of that stray cat!
Ming Ye had already withdrawn his hand and calmly sat down on the side.
That cat seemed to have been pacified by something. It no longer resisted the fate of being assigned to Diya’s side. It only lowered its head slightly and did not look very happy.
“You… are you agreeing to me raising it?”
Seeing the cat obediently lying by her arm, Diya was almost overjoyed!
She boldly stretched out her hand and gently stroked the body of the stray cat.
Diya was also a forgetful person. She had completely forgotten that she had just been scratched twice by this cat!
Ming Ye nodded slightly in agreement.
“This is your right. I have no right to interfere.”
In history, the people who did not look like kidnapper and kidnapped were probably the pair of oddballs, Ming Ye and Diya. They even raised a cat on the spur of the moment!
Meanwhile, Diya was still excitedly discussing the name of the stray cat.
“What do you thing of naming it Meow Meow? It was just meowing just now, so the name sounds compatible.”
If the stray cat could really understand Diya’s words, it would probably be furious.
How dare she use such a vulgar name on it? Sob, sob, this woman really doesn’t have any taste at all…
“It’s up to you.”
Ming Ye’s expression was indifferent as his gaze casually landed on Diya and the cat.
Sometimes, he admired the girl in front of him. She was obviously kidnapped by him, but she still had the mood to tease the cat.
Ming Ye did not know that Diya liked him and was so obedient. Otherwise, the roof would have been overturned.
“Meow Meow, Meow Meow… you are so skinny. I will go and find more dried fish for you in the future. What else do you eat? is fat-free milk okay?”
The cat was leaning against Diya’s side. It did not have the slightest intention of being obedient. Instead, it acted like a master and ignored Diya.
However, Diya did not care at all. She was focused on smoothing the cat’s fur and would call out Meow Meow’s name from time to time.
Ming Ye raised his head and looked at the clock. He suddenly remembered that it was already very late.
“You can go to sleep now.”
Because he was using Diya as a hostage to exchange for Su Wan, Ming Ye and Diya lived in the same house.
Of course, he slept in the outer room. Moreover, there was a separate bathroom in the inner room. It would not make Diya feel embarrassed.
Diya yawned and felt a little sleepy.
She hugged the kitten that she had just recognized today and looked back at Ming Ye reluctantly.
“What’s your name?”
Just when Diya thought that Ming Ye would not answer, she suddenly heard the man’s clear voice.
“Ming Ye.”
