The man’s expression turned even uglier.
He had picked the cat up outside the neighborhood. He took it home when he saw that it was beautiful. When he came back, he found that the cat was in good condition and was worth a lot of money. He might as well sell it to make some money. Later, when he saw that his daughter liked it, he kept it. He had no intention of returning it.
He took off Sweet Wine’s collar and threw it away, and kept it at home.
He just didn’t expect the cat’s owner to come to him so quickly.
He looked at the man and woman in front of him. “How did my cat become yours? Go and look for your cat if you lost it. It has nothing to do with my family.”
With that, he wanted to close the door.
He didn’t expect Xiao Wan to be so strong despite looking young and thin. He held the door tightly and didn’t let go at all. The man couldn’t do anything about it.
“I have all the videos and photos of Sweet Wine here. Which one do you want to see? Oh, right, I’m afraid you don’t know that Sweet Wine is an internet celebrity. There are probably people all over the country who can prove that it belongs to the Cat Bookstore,” Lin Gantang said.
The man did not pay attention to cute pets on the internet. He did not expect this. His expression was ugly and he did not say anything.
“I’m very grateful for your care of Sweet Wine all this time and I’m willing to pay you for it. But please return Sweet Wine – it’s my cat,” Lin Gantang said. “Daddy?” The little girl subconsciously looked at the man when she heard Lin Gantang’s words. Her eyes were filled with doubt. “Daddy?”
“Niu Niu, go in,” the man said.
“You can go in, but please put Sweet Wine down.” Xiao Wan grabbed the door.
“Daddy, are they here to snatch Mimi?” The little girl hugged Sweet Wine nervously.
Sweet Wine probably felt uncomfortable after being hugged too tightly and struggled to get out of the little girl’s arms. Sweet Wine was heavy, and the little girl was young and didn’t have the strength to hold onto it, so Sweet Wine jumped out of her arms.
“Daddy, Mimi is running away!” the little girl hurriedly shouted.
Lin Gantang gently picked up Sweet Wine. Sweet Wine meowed twice without resisting. “Little girl, we’re not snatching Mimi. It’s just that Mimi is originally my cat.”
The little girl was stunned when she heard that. Then, her eyes turned red and she looked like she was about to cry. She hid behind her father and pulled at his clothes. She felt wronged. “Daddy, my Mimi.”
The man gritted his teeth. He didn’t dare to say anything harsh with his daughter here. His face tensed up. “This cat and Niu Niu are fated. You see, they’re playing well. Can’t you give it to us?”
Xiao Wan was shocked. “This is the cat we bought. Just because you say they’re fated, we have to give it to you?”
“If I didn’t pick it up, would you have found it? Maybe it would have died wandering outside,” the man said stiffly.
Lin Gantang saw the little girl hiding behind her father, holding back her tears. She said, “If your child likes it, you can buy one. Or I can give you a kitten as a token of gratitude for taking Sweet Wine in. But Sweet Wine is my cat.”
“My family likes cats. We don’t want your kittens.” The man’s expression was ugly. He liked the one in her hand.
“If you like cats, you can get one for yourself. It’s against the law to seize other people’s property, sir. Set a good example for her,” Lin Gantang said coldly. “The child is right here. Do you want to be a bad role model?
“We cannot give Sweet Wine to you.” Lin Gantang’s expression was not too worried. “Let your daughter go in; you and I stay here. So if we can’t reach an agreement, and I can only ask the police to come over, she won’t be frightened.”
Seeing that Lin Gantang had really taken out her phone to make a call, the man’s expression changed quickly. “Alright, don’t call the police. I’ll give you the cat! Bad luck!”
With that, he slammed the door.
The cries of the little girl could be heard from the house. There was also the man’s angry scolding. “Why are you crying? That’s not your cat!”
Lin Gantang frowned..
