Huo Yu lay on the bed, patting the mattress.

Upon hearing this, Lin Shuwei knew that Huo Yu had learned about the kidnapping incident. Lin Shuwei probably called Huo Zhen.

This was something that only Huo Zhen knew best.

Huo Zhen liked Lin Shuxiao, and he had come to treat Lin Shuwei as one of his own, revealing such a secretive matter to her.

She had no face!

An incident from childhood still had an impact to this day, and it was quite embarrassing.

Huo Yu felt a pang of pain in her Happiness Points, tightly grasping onto the idea of Lin Shuwei being a deceitful person.

On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Lin Shuwei looked dazed.

She remembered what Gu Nanzhen had mentioned, and there were several instances where Huo Yu seemed to have a slight aversion towards cats.

She hadn’t expected that there was such a story behind this incident.

A seven-year-old child, bound and scratched all over the body by a cat’s sharp claws.

Any person would have psychological trauma from such an experience.

Lin Shuwei felt sorry for Huo Yu in her heart, and she felt pain and hatred towards those who spread rumors about this incident. Naturally, her mood was not good.

Lin Shuwei packed up Lin Shuxiao’s belongings and immediately brought her own things to the Cat Apartment.

As Lin Shuwei got into a taxi, she was surprised to find several people with cameras outside the Cat Apartment, taking pictures.

These people were paparazzi.

Huo Yu’s Cat Apartment was located near the film and television city, so it wasn’t a secret. With Huo Yu’s flashy red sports car, wherever it was parked, she would be easily found.

Huo Yu used to not attract much attention, but now it seemed that someone had paid them or they had found a hot topic, so they came.

The door of the Cat Apartment was tightly shut.

Usually, the ground floor had glass windows, but now the curtains were drawn.

If Lin Shuwei tried to enter, the paparazzi would capture her.

Lin Shuwei wouldn’t stay out of it, especially not at this time.

Coming to the Cat Apartment, Lin Shuwei was already being low-key, wearing a hat and a mask.

However, those keen-eyed netizens, like detectives, would surely recognize her.

Lin Shuwei didn’t care anymore. She first called Lin Shuxiao, quickly reached the back door, knocked on it, and Lin Shuxiao opened the door for her. Lin Shuwei immediately closed the door after entering.

“Sister, the Cat Apartment is surrounded by reporters. They’re really annoying. They were just blocking the entrance and shouting, asking why Big Sister Yu opened the Cat Apartment and why she’s afraid to hold a cat. Big Sister Yu got angry and went upstairs after scolding them a few times.” Lin Shuxiao said after Lin Shuwei entered.

“Yeah, I know. Don’t be afraid. I brought your things. Pack up and get ready for bed. I’ll go check on Xiao Yu.” Lin Shuwei said, handing Lin Shuxiao her belongings.

After arranging things for Lin Shuxiao, Lin Shuwei went upstairs with her own belongings to find Huo Yu.

Huo Yu was in her room, tears streaming down her face, pitifully looking at her dwindling Happiness Points.

So many Happiness Points were rapidly decreasing!

This was her business, but Lin Shuwei’s Happiness Points were dropping significantly!

While feeling resentful, Huo Yu also felt a bit embarrassed inexplicably.

Did this woman, Lin Shuwei, care about her that much?

This slight embarrassment was magnified upon hearing another message about her Happiness Points dropping, causing her to go crazy.

They’re almost gone, almost gone!

Will it ever end today?

While Huo Yu was rolling on the bed, there was a knock on the door. Huo Yu got up and opened the door.

At the door was Lin Shuwei.

Lin Shuwei saw Huo Yu with slightly messy hair and a chaotic expression on her face. She looked a bit dazed, cute, and pitiful.

“Do you need something? Why didn’t you go back?” Huo Yu asked Lin Shuwei.

Lin Shuwei entered the room, closed the door, and turned around to gently run her hand through Huo Yu’s tousled hair. She then embraced Huo Yu.

“What are you doing, Lin Shuwei?” Huo Yu pushed Lin Shuwei.

Lin Shuwei lightly patted Huo Yu’s back, released her, and looked at her.

“Do you want to have a late-night snack? If you do, I’ll make it for you. If you don’t, we can play games together.” Lin Shuwei said.

“Aren’t you leaving on a flight tomorrow?” Huo Yu said.

“I postponed it. It’s okay. I booked the ticket to adapt to the environment earlier. It’s fine to be a little later.” Lin Shuwei said.

“I don’t need you to accompany me. Don’t make a big deal out of it.” Huo Yu said.

“It’s not about me accompanying you. Will you accompany me? I want to go to the Tibetan area. Have you been there for tourism? Any tips?” Lin Shuwei phrased it differently.

“I’ve been there once. By the way, I heard it’s better not to take a plane when going there. Taking a train slowly ascending to high altitudes helps the body adapt to the plateau. If you take a plane, you suddenly arrive at a high-altitude place, which can cause altitude sickness…” Hearing Lin Shuwei’s words, Huo Yu pondered and said.

Lin Shuwei asked a few more questions, and Huo Yu answered them all.

She looked well-behaved, a considerate child.

Before going to the Tibetan area, Lin Shuwei naturally did some research and the production team also provided some tips.

At the moment, she was just trying to find a topic to talk about with Huo Yu.

“If you play games with me for a while, once I get there, I probably won’t have internet access for many days. I’m going to the wilderness, not the city.” Lin Shuwei said to Huo Yu after chatting for a while.

“Such a hassle. Can’t you play by yourself?” Huo Yu pouted her lips, reluctant, but still took out a game controller and installed it on the computer with Lin Shuwei.

Huo Yu usually played games when she had free time, so she was quite skilled. Lin Shuwei didn’t have that luxury of time to play games.

So once they started playing, Lin Shuwei was completely crushed by Huo Yu.

Lin Shuwei lost the game but gained some happiness points, while Huo Yu won over Lin Shuwei in this aspect and felt quite happy, so she continued to dominate.

Although Lin Shuwei said she wanted Huo Yu to accompany her, Huo Yu knew she had already learned about the events of the past. At this moment, Lin Shuwei treated Huo Yu with tenderness in every aspect, and Huo Yu could feel it.

After playing for a while, Huo Yu started to yawn, and they stopped.

Huo Yu went to freshen up, while Lin Shuwei went to rest in Lin Shuxiao’s dormitory.

After freshening up, Huo Yu lay on the bed and fell asleep in an instant.

Lin Shuwei, after freshening up, didn’t go to sleep and was still browsing through the news on the internet.

Suddenly, it became much quieter, and Huo Yu’s hot search results disappeared.

Lin Shuwei checked and found that the official account of the Huo Corporation had also released a statement. Shortly after, several influential marketing accounts were directly banned.

The instigator behind the whole incident was revealed—it turned out to be Wang Renkai, who had been scolded by Huo Yu and had tried to frame the tabby cat.

After he was scratched by the tabby cat last time, he had been wanting to find fault with the tabby cat. When he finally managed to find something, it was Huo Yu who stopped him. He felt extremely resentful and secretly investigated Huo Yu’s so-called dark secrets to smear her.

He thought he was being discreet and that no one would know, but in this day and age, as long as someone is involved, there are always breakthroughs.

Huo Zhen immediately found people to swiftly resolve the situation.

With the strength of the Huo Corporation, the top-notch technical team, and the strongest legal team, this group causing trouble is in for a miserable time.

Lin Shuwei watched Huo Zhen’s efficiency in handling matters, feeling happy that Huo Yu had such a good older brother and also realizing how weak her own abilities were. She still needed to continue to grow stronger!

The next day, Lin Shuwei deliberately woke up early to see if there were still paparazzi outside. However, she discovered that it was quiet outside, not a single paparazzi in sight.

Overnight, every paparazzi team stationed at the Cat Apartment had been completely wiped out by Huo Zhen. They couldn’t make it in Fengcheng anymore.

When you have power, you can be willful.

Lin Shuwei stayed in the Cat Apartment until noon and cooked two meals for Huo Yu.

Huo Yu seemed fine on her side, eating and sleeping as needed, but she still couldn’t get close to the cat.

This is not something that can be changed overnight.

Lin Shuwei couldn’t delay her work on the set any longer, so she had to leave.

When Lin Shuwei was about to leave, she went to say goodbye to Huo Yu.

Huo Yu looked at the pitifully low happiness points left and was contemplating whether to give Lin Shuwei a farewell hug to increase the happiness points before she left.

A farewell hug is normal, right?

It could send her off to the airport and also increase happiness points.

Huo Yu had already put on her slippers when she suddenly heard the announcement from 006.

“Ding, Lin Shuwei is reluctant to leave the host, happiness points -500.”

Snap! Lin Shuwei’s happiness points dropped again, going into negative numbers.

Huo Yu transformed into a cat at a visible speed!

Lying on the bed, Huo Yu stared at herself in the mirror with big round eyes, going crazy.

Can’t she hold Lin Shuwei, see her off, and then transform into a cat? Ahhh!

When Huo Yu was searching for her phone, she heard a knock on the door. Cats have keen hearing and smell. From inside the door, Huo Yu sensed that it was Lin Shuwei outside.

“Xiao Yu, are you there? I’m about to leave.” Lin Shuwei knocked on the door from outside and said.

Huo Yu jumped onto the table, found her phone, unlocked it, and used the WeChat account she had just added Lin Shuwei to send her a message.

“I hate goodbyes. Sorry, I can’t accompany you today. I’ve left the kitten in my room to take my place in seeing you off. Just go inside, and you’ll see her.”

Before sending the message, Huo Yu added a few words symbolizing friendship.

“You’re a great friend. Thank you for these past two days. Take care on your journey!”

After adding those words, Huo Yu sent the message and quickly turned off her phone, pretending to sleep on the couch.

Lin Shuwei waited outside for Huo Yu’s response but received none.

She didn’t know if Huo Yu was sleeping or had gone out.

When she wanted to call Huo Yu, a message from Huo Yu arrived.

Upon seeing the message, Lin Shuwei pushed the door open and indeed didn’t find Huo Yu, only a cat in the room. It was her kitten.

Did Huo Yu really leave? She didn’t see her leave. Who brought the kitten here?

Lin Shuwei felt puzzled, but there was truly no sign of Huo Yu in the room. She didn’t know if Huo Yu had truly left or was hiding somewhere, avoiding her.

Being able to see the kitten made Lin Shuwei quite happy.

“Ding, Lin Shuwei can’t see the host, happiness points -500.”

“Ding, Lin Shuwei sees the host, happiness points +100.”

As Lin Shuwei entered, Huo Yu heard the announcement of 006.

Huo Yu still knew the sequence of this host.

Upon hearing these two notifications, Huo Yu’s mood soured.

Seeing that Lin Shuwei lost 500 happiness points for not being able to see her, and only gained 100 points upon seeing the cat!

Do you discriminate against cats?

Who really has a good relationship with you?

“Little Kitty, I thought I wouldn’t see you before leaving.” Lin Shuwei hugged Huo Yu and gave her a kiss.

Huo Yu still had the same scent as before, a hint of milk.

Her fur was clean, fresh, smooth, and soft, very pleasant to touch.

Huo Yu’s transformation into a human was slower compared to other cats, but she had gradually grown a bit. She was now two to three times larger than her kitten stage, with plump cheeks that made her look cute and round.

Lin Shuwei cuddled Huo Yu for a while.

“When you were with Big Sister Xiao Yu, did she ever hold you? She treats you differently, right? Did she secretly practice holding you? She’s very cute, isn’t she?” Lin Shuwei gently said as she stroked Huo Yu’s fur.

“Hehe…” Huo Yu had no words to respond.

Lin Shuwei had a vivid imagination. Let her imagine away.

After holding Huo Yu for a while and exchanging a few words, Lin Shuwei had to leave. Time waits for no one.

Lin Shuwei entrusted Huo Yu to Lin Shuxiao and gave her a few instructions before leaving the Cat Apartment and taking a car.

Huo Yu watched as Lin Shuwei left, feeling both sad and unable to cry.

Lin Shuwei left with ease, leaving behind negative happiness points for her.

If Lin Shuwei loses network connection in the Tibetan area, even if she sends rainbow-like compliments every day and praises to the sky, when will her happiness points ever increase?

Once again, she was forced to be a cat for a few days.

Huo Yu was arranged by Lin Shuxiao to play in the cat’s nest.

When Huo Yu had nothing to do, she would go and look at the tabby cat and Elizabeth, as well as their three little kittens.

Elizabeth was like a guardian, squatting beside the tabby cat and hugging its neck.

The tabby cat occasionally glanced affectionately at Elizabeth.

The three little ones were too young, their eyes couldn’t even open yet, their meows were small and muffled, and their tiny paws had a pink hue, their fur not fully grown.

“Brother Cat, turns out you’re a female. Why did you agree when I called you ‘Brother Cat’?” Huo Yu stood outside the glass door of the room and said.

“Calling me bro or boss, isn’t it the same thing? Little Kitty, you’re growing too slowly, aren’t you? Haven’t tasted mother’s milk, have you? Do you want to drink my milk? I have plenty.” The tabby cat said from within the nest, shaking its belly generously.

“Uh, no thanks. I appreciate the offer.” Huo Yu quickly declined.

“Elizabeth, don’t you think your children are cute?” Huo Yu turned and asked Elizabeth.

“Of course, they’re adorable. Why are you here?” Elizabeth gave Huo Yu a disdainful look and asked.

“Your children are mixed breeds too, hahaha! Weren’t you saying before that mixed breeds are inferior?” Huo Yu said. She had been wanting to use this line to retort Elizabeth for a while, and now that she had become a cat, it was the perfect opportunity to say it to her face.

“You’re the inferior one. My children are naturally the best!” Elizabeth said.

“Elizabeth! You’re the inferior one! Brother Cat, look, it’s calling me inferior! Do something about it!” Huo Yu said angrily.

“Isn’t it good for you to become our child too? These three can be your siblings.” The tabby cat said.

“…” Huo Yu was speechless.

Brother Cat was no longer the same as before!

Huo Yu tried to salvage some dignity but ended up being fed a mouthful of cat food. Seeing them all happy together, she absolutely refused to join in and crawled back to her own nest.

Huo Yu remembered that in two days, she would be filming 《Me and My Wealthy Sisters》 with Gu Nanzhen, but now she was a cat. How was she supposed to film?

Huo Yu crawled back into the cat passage and went back to her old ways.
