On account of the addition of the cat, Xiao Ning didn't go back directly to Shan Haiming's place. After first sending Shan Haiming a message stating he had a small matter to take care of, he then returned to his own apartment.

He then turned on the dryer, the whirr from the air being blown giving the kitten a start. But because Xiao Ning held it in place, it couldn't escape, ad pitifully allowed its fur to be blown.

The bathtub was far too big for such a small creature, so Xiao Ning simply filled his sink with warm water and gently lowered the cat into it. "Don't be scared, don't worry. I'm only helping you get cleaned up."

There was no blow-dyer in his apartment, and because Xiao Ning kept his hair short, it was usually not something that concerned him. So when he washed his hair, he would just use a towel to get it halfway dry. But that little thing looked far too weak to even withstand a slight breeze, really making Xiao Ning worried it would catch a cold if he wasn't careful.

He then turned on the dryer, the whirr from the air being blown giving the kitten a start. But because Xiao Ning held it in place, it couldn't escape, ad pitifully allowed its fur to be blown.

But the current timing was also rather fortunate, because he would be heading over to Shan Haiming's parent's house the day after, and although those items weren't considered expensive, they were fresh.

Xiao Ning never had so much as a fish for a pet, and his apartment didn't have any necessary tools, and if he wanted to give the cat a bath, he couldn't just rinse it in water. So in the end, he could only wash it using his shower gel instead.

Right then, Shan Haiming came back in with carrying a saucer which he put down on the coffee table. Taking a look, Xiao Ning saw it was warm milk. Holding the kitten, he said, "Here you go, say thank you."

The bathtub was far too big for such a small creature, so Xiao Ning simply filled his sink with warm water and gently lowered the cat into it. "Don't be scared, don't worry. I'm only helping you get cleaned up."

Its cries could easily make a person unable to stand firm, but if its not trained properly from the first instance, in the future, the problem would grow into a notable headache. Xiao Ning crouched down, scratching Xiaohei's chin, but Xiaohei flung its head to the side, clearly displeased. "I have to go out for a bit. But when I get back, we'll play, alright?"

On account of the addition of the cat, Xiao Ning didn't go back directly to Shan Haiming's place. After first sending Shan Haiming a message stating he had a small matter to take care of, he then returned to his own apartment.

"Huh? Looks like this spot wasn't washed properly." Xiao Ning noticed that on the completely snow white kitten, there was a still a little black spot on its tail. He used his finger to rub it a bit, but the colour didn't rub off.

Xiaohei stared at him expressionlessly.

"Haiming..." Paying his bill, Xiao Ning then went over silently rescue Xiaohei from his hands. "We have to move the stuff."

N/A

That unfurnished apartment that originally had no sense of warmth, had now suddenly seemed to have become a bit more homely.

The kitten couldn't understand any of his words, however. Resulting in all its little claws extended as was held in Xiao Ning's hand, and piercing little holes into his flesh. But, not caring at all about the stinging pain, Xiao Ning simply used his other hand to continue soothing the kitten. "It's alright. Don't be scared."

Xiaohei stared at him expressionlessly.

Perhaps it was due to his actions being quite gentle, because the kitten no longer struggled as fiercely. It's entire body now held stiffly as he washed its fur. It was not easy to wash the kitten clean, taking three sinks full of water to get it done before Xiao Ning could wrap the soaked kitten, which looked even more gaunt, into a towel.

Xiao Ning gave Qian Sheng a call, thanking him then asking him for the cost before saying he would pay him back later then just carried he package home.

"Sure." Shan Haiming looked at the time, "I'll go with you."

Xiao Ning looked around with his place with satisfaction, then to that little kitten which had only drank a saucer of milk, he prepared it some dinner with some worm medicine mixed in. But perhaps it was on account of Xiaohei not being too picky with food, or perhaps the food he bought was to its liking, because in under a blink the small bowl of food was licked clean.

He held the kitten up in front of him to avoid being scratched by his paws. "Your tail has a black tip. How unique."

Xiao Ning felt the kitten's body entire body once, confirming its fur was completely dry before turning off the dryer. With a smile, he looked at the snowball in his lap, saying, "Nice, you smell great."

There was no blow-dyer in his apartment, and because Xiao Ning kept his hair short, it was usually not something that concerned him. So when he washed his hair, he would just use a towel to get it halfway dry. But that little thing looked far too weak to even withstand a slight breeze, really making Xiao Ning worried it would catch a cold if he wasn't careful.

Shan Haiming reached out to stroke its head a few times, and since the kitten was completely absorbed in eating it didn't shy away from him. But for some reason, the scene of the two gave Xiao Ning a feeling of deja vu.

That unfurnished apartment that originally had no sense of warmth, had now suddenly seemed to have become a bit more homely.

Xiao Ning didn't spend his time back idling away either. He placed the litter box in the bathroom, packed Xiaohei's shampoo and medicine in the bathroom cabinet, set up the cat tree in the living room, and placed the next and feeding bowls beside it.

"Sure." Shan Haiming looked at the time, "I'll go with you."

Shan Haiming then warned, "Hold onto Xiao'Hei. If he jumps out the window he'll be a goner."

As a result, when Shan Haiming opened his door, he was met by the sight of Xiao Ning clutching a cat in his arms while sending a smile his way. "Do you have a blow-dryer?"

Perhaps she noticed Xiao Ning was a novice at raising a cat because the store clerk kindly explained to him a few things he would need to know when taking care of a cat, along with recommending to him to purchase some worm medicine. "Your kitten should be around three months old, so if it has a clean bill of health you can take it to get an injection."

After drying him off for a while, every part of that kitten was left so mushy it couldn't even stand. Xiao Ning looked at the little thing in his arms and sighed. "Come on, let's go next door to get a blow-dryer to give you a hand."

"Be a good cat, so no wiggling, alright?" His were eyes cast downwards, all of his attention fell on the kitten in his lap, his focus written on his expression, with the corners of his lips tugged into an unconscious smile.

And Xiao Ning placed its food and water bowl beside it, saying, "If you do it in the right place next time, I'll let you go out and play as much as you'd like."

"Ah—yeah." Xiao Ning rolled up the window until only a small gap remained before asking, "Xiao'Hei?T/n: Xiaohei means little black, and it's not the same Xiao used in Xiao Ning's name."

He then turned on the dryer, the whirr from the air being blown giving the kitten a start. But because Xiao Ning held it in place, it couldn't escape, ad pitifully allowed its fur to be blown.

"I'm going to be busy tonight." Shan Haiming retracted his hand. "You'll have to take care of dinner yourself."

To which Shan Haiming replied, "You're welcome."

There was a lot of stuff, so it too them both two trips to each to get everything into the trunk. After first dropping the kitten off at the veterinarian's to get its shots, Shan Haiming then took that human and kitten pair back home. Then following helping Xiao Ning take all the stuff back to his place, he went to work.

As a result, when Shan Haiming opened his door, he was met by the sight of Xiao Ning clutching a cat in his arms while sending a smile his way. "Do you have a blow-dryer?"

"Huh? Looks like this spot wasn't washed properly." Xiao Ning noticed that on the completely snow white kitten, there was a still a little black spot on its tail. He used his finger to rub it a bit, but the colour didn't rub off.

Shan Haiming explained irrefutably, "The cat's name."

"Yep." Shan Haiming used a finger to scratch the top of the kitten's head, then turn aside in order to allow them the enter. "Where'd you get the cat from?"

"I found it near the bins when I went to throw out the trash." Xiao Ning had no intention of sitting since he was planning on just getting the blow-dryer and returning to his apartment. Doing so to avoid making noise or leaving fur at Shan Haiming's place.

The kitten couldn't understand any of his words, however. Resulting in all its little claws extended as was held in Xiao Ning's hand, and piercing little holes into his flesh. But, not caring at all about the stinging pain, Xiao Ning simply used his other hand to continue soothing the kitten. "It's alright. Don't be scared."

Looks-wise, Xiao Ning was not what one would call a exquisite beauty, neither was he as ruggedly handsome as Shan Haiming. But his honest features left a person with a gentle sense of trustworthiness, the kind of gentleness that goes with the flow, that possesses tactful restraint, and never makes someone feel pressured. But it was precisely this trace of self-conscious restraint which makes every time he actually lets out a carefree gentle smile, there is something in his features that makes a person's heart move.

"Yep." Shan Haiming used a finger to scratch the top of the kitten's head, then turn aside in order to allow them the enter. "Where'd you get the cat from?"

He then turned on the dryer, the whirr from the air being blown giving the kitten a start. But because Xiao Ning held it in place, it couldn't escape, ad pitifully allowed its fur to be blown.

Xiao Ning returned to the living room afterwards and opened up the box. Inside, there were flower cakes, ham and mushrooms. He then divided it into two portions, one was to be taken with him him on Sunday, and the other was to be mailed to the Lu's the next day. The two elders never expected their kids to send back any extraordinary delicacies, as only wanting to know their children were doing alright, and that they were on those children's mind was good enough.

But after Shan Haiming went into the bathroom to bring out the blow-dryer, he took it into the living room and plugged it in right next to the sofa. Then looking at Xiao Ning, who hadn't walked over, he lifted a brow and asked, "You want me to do it?"

I have no idea if that's a promise or a complaint.

Right then, Shan Haiming came back in with carrying a saucer which he put down on the coffee table. Taking a look, Xiao Ning saw it was warm milk. Holding the kitten, he said, "Here you go, say thank you."

"Sure." Shan Haiming looked at the time, "I'll go with you."

"No, I'll do it." Xiao Ning took the kitten over and sat down next to his assistant. Spreading a towel over his lap, he then supported the kitten, picked up the dryer before he again said coaxingly, "Don't move, okay? I'm going to help dry you off."

Its cries could easily make a person unable to stand firm, but if its not trained properly from the first instance, in the future, the problem would grow into a notable headache. Xiao Ning crouched down, scratching Xiaohei's chin, but Xiaohei flung its head to the side, clearly displeased. "I have to go out for a bit. But when I get back, we'll play, alright?"

"Huh? Looks like this spot wasn't washed properly." Xiao Ning noticed that on the completely snow white kitten, there was a still a little black spot on its tail. He used his finger to rub it a bit, but the colour didn't rub off.

"Oh, okay. I understand." Xiao Ning looked at the kitten, during which he thought seriously about the things the little cat would need. Then, before he realised the somewhat odd nature of their conversation he said, "I need to go buy some things, so can you give us a ride when you leave?"

"Yep." Shan Haiming used a finger to scratch the top of the kitten's head, then turn aside in order to allow them the enter. "Where'd you get the cat from?"

On account of the addition of the cat, Xiao Ning didn't go back directly to Shan Haiming's place. After first sending Shan Haiming a message stating he had a small matter to take care of, he then returned to his own apartment.

Xiao Ning placed the cat on the coffee table, not needing to guide it as it went towards the milk on its own. Once it confirmed the familiar scent it extended its little pink tongue to begin licking. As it drank, its little tail still wagged too and fro until it ultimately curled up into a circle.

The kitten couldn't understand any of his words, however. Resulting in all its little claws extended as was held in Xiao Ning's hand, and piercing little holes into his flesh. But, not caring at all about the stinging pain, Xiao Ning simply used his other hand to continue soothing the kitten. "It's alright. Don't be scared."

He then turned on the dryer, the whirr from the air being blown giving the kitten a start. But because Xiao Ning held it in place, it couldn't escape, ad pitifully allowed its fur to be blown.

Pet

From beside them, Shan Haiming sat on the sofa while looking at Xiao Ning switch the dryer to its lowest setting the use his thumb to gently ruffle the kittens soft fur.

Xiao Ning didn't have the energy to go deal with those two, only asking the clerk, "Is there any animal hospitals you can recommend?"

"Be a good cat, so no wiggling, alright?" His were eyes cast downwards, all of his attention fell on the kitten in his lap, his focus written on his expression, with the corners of his lips tugged into an unconscious smile.

"I'm sorry for putting you through this." Xiao Ning then confined the stuffed Xiaohei near its litter box, to which Xiaohei sat in place and meowed unhappily.

Xiao Ning returned to the living room afterwards and opened up the box. Inside, there were flower cakes, ham and mushrooms. He then divided it into two portions, one was to be taken with him him on Sunday, and the other was to be mailed to the Lu's the next day. The two elders never expected their kids to send back any extraordinary delicacies, as only wanting to know their children were doing alright, and that they were on those children's mind was good enough.

Xiao Ning gave Qian Sheng a call, thanking him then asking him for the cost before saying he would pay him back later then just carried he package home.

But it was precisely this trace of self-conscious restraint which makes every time he actually lets out a carefree gentle smile, there is something in his features that makes a person's heart move.

Shan Haiming had no interest in that stall so he took Xiaohei over to play with the other cats and dogs in the shop. But he had no idea how he offended those cats and dogs so the store was presently filled with meows and barks and made it rather lively.

Pet

In the bathroom, Xiaohei really did drop a little package of its own, but unfortunately, it didn't drop its load in the litter box, so Xiao Ning could only eat his words and help Xiaohei by shovelling its poop into the litter box, but he didn't let it off scot-free.

Xiao Ning gave Qian Sheng a call, thanking him then asking him for the cost before saying he would pay him back later then just carried he package home.

After looking at him for a while, Shan Haiming then got up walked into the kitchen.

After saying this he was stunned for a moment, wondering how could he could say something so naturally.

Xiao Ning placed the cat on the coffee table, not needing to guide it as it went towards the milk on its own. Once it confirmed the familiar scent it extended its little pink tongue to begin licking. As it drank, its little tail still wagged too and fro until it ultimately curled up into a circle.

Xiao Ning gazed at the little cat on his lap who stared back at him, smiling, then petting its head, humorously giving indicating his acceptance. After this, while one hand remained on the kitten, the other pulled out his phone and begun looking up cat food.

Xiao Ning felt the kitten's body entire body once, confirming its fur was completely dry before turning off the dryer. With a smile, he looked at the snowball in his lap, saying, "Nice, you smell great."

Xiao Ning then asked the clerk for the addresses as well as her number before turning to go look for the big and little pair. Shan Haiming was holding Xiaohei while he played with a little golden retriever in a kennel, the little cat in his hold was so scared out of its wits that its legs couldn't even curl inwards, thus leaving it no other option than to stiffly stay in in that hold.

"Sure." Shan Haiming looked at the time, "I'll go with you."

Then following helping Xiao Ning take all the stuff back to his place, he went to work.

When they got to the store, following the introductions, Xiao Ning then realised how many things it turned out he needed to buy. Handing the Xiaohei to Shan Haiming, while he listened the the store clerk's introductions, Xiao Ning carefully examined the products on the shelves. From small catnip balls to huge cat trees, then when it came to cat food, Xiao Ning chose two types from the forest of numerous kinds.

But perhaps it was on account of Xiaohei not being too picky with food, or perhaps the food he bought was to its liking, because in under a blink the small bowl of food was licked clean.

To which Shan Haiming replied, "You're welcome."

The dedicated store clerk told him about a couple or so which were all close by.

Its cries could easily make a person unable to stand firm, but if its not trained properly from the first instance, in the future, the problem would grow into a notable headache. Xiao Ning crouched down, scratching Xiaohei's chin, but Xiaohei flung its head to the side, clearly displeased. "I have to go out for a bit. But when I get back, we'll play, alright?"

The two looked at one another, both carrying a smile within their eyes and leaving only the kitten meowing awkwardly.

To which Shan Haiming replied, "You're welcome."

Originally, Xiao Ning had planned that, in addition to dividing it between his co-workers, he had to send some to Lu Yan's parents, and if there was any left over, he would just give it to Lu Yan.

It would be better to to take care of this matter sooner rather than later, so the two people, and one cat, all got into the car. Xiao Ning used his phone to look up the location of the store. It was a good thing he was able to get a ride because, if not, he wouldn't had to go a good distance around.

Xiao Ning looked around with his place with satisfaction, then to that little kitten which had only drank a saucer of milk, he prepared it some dinner with some worm medicine mixed in. But perhaps it was on account of Xiaohei not being too picky with food, or perhaps the food he bought was to its liking, because in under a blink the small bowl of food was licked clean.

Xiaohei: "Meow."

That unfurnished apartment that originally had no sense of warmth, had now suddenly seemed to have become a bit more homely.

Looks-wise, Xiao Ning was not what one would call a exquisite beauty, neither was he as ruggedly handsome as Shan Haiming. But his honest features left a person with a gentle sense of trustworthiness, the kind of gentleness that goes with the flow, that possesses tactful restraint, and never makes someone feel pressured. But it was precisely this trace of self-conscious restraint which makes every time he actually lets out a carefree gentle smile, there is something in his features that makes a person's heart move.

"No, I'll do it." Xiao Ning took the kitten over and sat down next to his assistant. Spreading a towel over his lap, he then supported the kitten, picked up the dryer before he again said coaxingly, "Don't move, okay? I'm going to help dry you off."

Xiaohei: "Meow."

Shan Haiming explained irrefutably, "The cat's name."

Shan Haiming then warned, "Hold onto Xiao'Hei. If he jumps out the window he'll be a goner."

When they got to the store, following the introductions, Xiao Ning then realised how many things it turned out he needed to buy. Handing the Xiaohei to Shan Haiming, while he listened the the store clerk's introductions, Xiao Ning carefully examined the products on the shelves. From small catnip balls to huge cat trees, then when it came to cat food, Xiao Ning chose two types from the forest of numerous kinds.

After drying him off for a while, every part of that kitten was left so mushy it couldn't even stand. Xiao Ning looked at the little thing in his arms and sighed. "Come on, let's go next door to get a blow-dryer to give you a hand."

Xiao Ning gazed at the little cat on his lap who stared back at him, smiling, then petting its head, humorously giving indicating his acceptance. After this, while one hand remained on the kitten, the other pulled out his phone and begun looking up cat food.

Xiao Ning placed the cat on the coffee table, not needing to guide it as it went towards the milk on its own. Once it confirmed the familiar scent it extended its little pink tongue to begin licking. As it drank, its little tail still wagged too and fro until it ultimately curled up into a circle.

Shan Haiming explained irrefutably, "The cat's name."

He then turned on the dryer, the whirr from the air being blown giving the kitten a start. But because Xiao Ning held it in place, it couldn't escape, ad pitifully allowed its fur to be blown.

To which Shan Haiming replied, "You're welcome."

The bathtub was far too big for such a small creature, so Xiao Ning simply filled his sink with warm water and gently lowered the cat into it. "Don't be scared, don't worry. I'm only helping you get cleaned up."

"Ah—yeah." Xiao Ning rolled up the window until only a small gap remained before asking, "Xiao'Hei?T/n: Xiaohei means little black, and it's not the same Xiao used in Xiao Ning's name."

Originally, Xiao Ning had planned that, in addition to dividing it between his co-workers, he had to send some to Lu Yan's parents, and if there was any left over, he would just give it to Lu Yan.

It would be better to to take care of this matter sooner rather than later, so the two people, and one cat, all got into the car. Xiao Ning used his phone to look up the location of the store. It was a good thing he was able to get a ride because, if not, he wouldn't had to go a good distance around.

Perhaps she noticed Xiao Ning was a novice at raising a cat because the store clerk kindly explained to him a few things he would need to know when taking care of a cat, along with recommending to him to purchase some worm medicine. "Your kitten should be around three months old, so if it has a clean bill of health you can take it to get an injection."

The bathtub was far too big for such a small creature, so Xiao Ning simply filled his sink with warm water and gently lowered the cat into it. "Don't be scared, don't worry. I'm only helping you get cleaned up."

Shan Haiming had no interest in that stall so he took Xiaohei over to play with the other cats and dogs in the shop. But he had no idea how he offended those cats and dogs so the store was presently filled with meows and barks and made it rather lively.

Xiao Ning still remembered the package which was sent to his company from earlier, so he went there directly. Upon seeing the size of the box the front desk brought out he was rather taken aback. Thinking it over, he understood the reason behind behind it. Qian Sheng was someone who understood Xiao Ning, and he knew any specialities he bought would be divided amongst their co-workers. Qian Sheng also wasn't one who ate a small share when Xiao Ning brought back specialities he bought and brought back from trips, so he did him a favour by bringing back that much.

Shan Haiming reached out to stroke its head a few times, and since the kitten was completely absorbed in eating it didn't shy away from him. But for some reason, the scene of the two gave Xiao Ning a feeling of deja vu.

The bathtub was far too big for such a small creature, so Xiao Ning simply filled his sink with warm water and gently lowered the cat into it. "Don't be scared, don't worry. I'm only helping you get cleaned up."

Perhaps it was due to his actions being quite gentle, because the kitten no longer struggled as fiercely. It's entire body now held stiffly as he washed its fur. It was not easy to wash the kitten clean, taking three sinks full of water to get it done before Xiao Ning could wrap the soaked kitten, which looked even more gaunt, into a towel.

But the current timing was also rather fortunate, because he would be heading over to Shan Haiming's parent's house the day after, and although those items weren't considered expensive, they were fresh.

And Xiao Ning placed its food and water bowl beside it, saying, "If you do it in the right place next time, I'll let you go out and play as much as you'd like."

Xiao Ning didn't have the energy to go deal with those two, only asking the clerk, "Is there any animal hospitals you can recommend?"

That unfurnished apartment that originally had no sense of warmth, had now suddenly seemed to have become a bit more homely.

He held the kitten up in front of him to avoid being scratched by his paws. "Your tail has a black tip. How unique."

Perhaps she noticed Xiao Ning was a novice at raising a cat because the store clerk kindly explained to him a few things he would need to know when taking care of a cat, along with recommending to him to purchase some worm medicine. "Your kitten should be around three months old, so if it has a clean bill of health you can take it to get an injection."

The dedicated store clerk told him about a couple or so which were all close by.

As a result, when Shan Haiming opened his door, he was met by the sight of Xiao Ning clutching a cat in his arms while sending a smile his way. "Do you have a blow-dryer?"

Xiao Ning then asked the clerk for the addresses as well as her number before turning to go look for the big and little pair. Shan Haiming was holding Xiaohei while he played with a little golden retriever in a kennel, the little cat in his hold was so scared out of its wits that its legs couldn't even curl inwards, thus leaving it no other option than to stiffly stay in in that hold.

"I found it near the bins when I went to throw out the trash." Xiao Ning had no intention of sitting since he was planning on just getting the blow-dryer and returning to his apartment. Doing so to avoid making noise or leaving fur at Shan Haiming's place.

There was a lot of stuff, so it too them both two trips to each to get everything into the trunk. After first dropping the kitten off at the veterinarian's to get its shots, Shan Haiming then took that human and kitten pair back home. Then following helping Xiao Ning take all the stuff back to his place, he went to work.

Looks-wise, Xiao Ning was not what one would call a exquisite beauty, neither was he as ruggedly handsome as Shan Haiming. But his honest features left a person with a gentle sense of trustworthiness, the kind of gentleness that goes with the flow, that possesses tactful restraint, and never makes someone feel pressured. But it was precisely this trace of self-conscious restraint which makes every time he actually lets out a carefree gentle smile, there is something in his features that makes a person's heart move.

"Haiming..." Paying his bill, Xiao Ning then went over silently rescue Xiaohei from his hands. "We have to move the stuff."

On account of the addition of the cat, Xiao Ning didn't go back directly to Shan Haiming's place. After first sending Shan Haiming a message stating he had a small matter to take care of, he then returned to his own apartment.

But the current timing was also rather fortunate, because he would be heading over to Shan Haiming's parent's house the day after, and although those items weren't considered expensive, they were fresh.

"Oh, okay. I understand." Xiao Ning looked at the kitten, during which he thought seriously about the things the little cat would need. Then, before he realised the somewhat odd nature of their conversation he said, "I need to go buy some things, so can you give us a ride when you leave?"

"Ah—yeah." Xiao Ning rolled up the window until only a small gap remained before asking, "Xiao'Hei?T/n: Xiaohei means little black, and it's not the same Xiao used in Xiao Ning's name."

Xiao Ning didn't spend his time back idling away either. He placed the litter box in the bathroom, packed Xiaohei's shampoo and medicine in the bathroom cabinet, set up the cat tree in the living room, and placed the next and feeding bowls beside it.

The two looked at one another, both carrying a smile within their eyes and leaving only the kitten meowing awkwardly.

Originally, Xiao Ning had planned that, in addition to dividing it between his co-workers, he had to send some to Lu Yan's parents, and if there was any left over, he would just give it to Lu Yan.

Xiaohei: "Meow."

And Xiao Ning placed its food and water bowl beside it, saying, "If you do it in the right place next time, I'll let you go out and play as much as you'd like."

After looking at him for a while, Shan Haiming then got up walked into the kitchen.

"Your kitten should be around three months old, so if it has a clean bill of health you can take it to get an injection."

But after Shan Haiming went into the bathroom to bring out the blow-dryer, he took it into the living room and plugged it in right next to the sofa. Then looking at Xiao Ning, who hadn't walked over, he lifted a brow and asked, "You want me to do it?"

Xiao Ning looked around with his place with satisfaction, then to that little kitten which had only drank a saucer of milk, he prepared it some dinner with some worm medicine mixed in. But perhaps it was on account of Xiaohei not being too picky with food, or perhaps the food he bought was to its liking, because in under a blink the small bowl of food was licked clean.

Its cries could easily make a person unable to stand firm, but if its not trained properly from the first instance, in the future, the problem would grow into a notable headache. Xiao Ning crouched down, scratching Xiaohei's chin, but Xiaohei flung its head to the side, clearly displeased. "I have to go out for a bit. But when I get back, we'll play, alright?"

"I found it near the bins when I went to throw out the trash." Xiao Ning had no intention of sitting since he was planning on just getting the blow-dryer and returning to his apartment. Doing so to avoid making noise or leaving fur at Shan Haiming's place.

"Oh, okay. I understand." Xiao Ning looked at the kitten, during which he thought seriously about the things the little cat would need. Then, before he realised the somewhat odd nature of their conversation he said, "I need to go buy some things, so can you give us a ride when you leave?"

"I'm sorry for putting you through this." Xiao Ning then confined the stuffed Xiaohei near its litter box, to which Xiaohei sat in place and meowed unhappily.

"I'm going to be busy tonight." Shan Haiming retracted his hand. "You'll have to take care of dinner yourself."

"Your kitten should be around three months old, so if it has a clean bill of health you can take it to get an injection."

"Huh? Looks like this spot wasn't washed properly." Xiao Ning noticed that on the completely snow white kitten, there was a still a little black spot on its tail. He used his finger to rub it a bit, but the colour didn't rub off.

But the current timing was also rather fortunate, because he would be heading over to Shan Haiming's parent's house the day after, and although those items weren't considered expensive, they were fresh.

And Xiao Ning placed its food and water bowl beside it, saying, "If you do it in the right place next time, I'll let you go out and play as much as you'd like."

After saying this he was stunned for a moment, wondering how could he could say something so naturally.

Shan Haiming had no interest in that stall so he took Xiaohei over to play with the other cats and dogs in the shop. But he had no idea how he offended those cats and dogs so the store was presently filled with meows and barks and made it rather lively.

Xiao Ning never had so much as a fish for a pet, and his apartment didn't have any necessary tools, and if he wanted to give the cat a bath, he couldn't just rinse it in water. So in the end, he could only wash it using his shower gel instead.

"I'm going to be busy tonight." Shan Haiming retracted his hand. "You'll have to take care of dinner yourself."

Shan Haiming reached out to stroke its head a few times, and since the kitten was completely absorbed in eating it didn't shy away from him. But for some reason, the scene of the two gave Xiao Ning a feeling of deja vu.

Xiao Ning didn't have the energy to go deal with those two, only asking the clerk, "Is there any animal hospitals you can recommend?"

Xiao Ning gave Qian Sheng a call, thanking him then asking him for the cost before saying he would pay him back later then just carried he package home.

Xiao Ning looked around with his place with satisfaction, then to that little kitten which had only drank a saucer of milk, he prepared it some dinner with some worm medicine mixed in. But perhaps it was on account of Xiaohei not being too picky with food, or perhaps the food he bought was to its liking, because in under a blink the small bowl of food was licked clean.

In the bathroom, Xiaohei really did drop a little package of its own, but unfortunately, it didn't drop its load in the litter box, so Xiao Ning could only eat his words and help Xiaohei by shovelling its poop into the litter box, but he didn't let it off scot-free.

But after Shan Haiming went into the bathroom to bring out the blow-dryer, he took it into the living room and plugged it in right next to the sofa. Then looking at Xiao Ning, who hadn't walked over, he lifted a brow and asked, "You want me to do it?"

Xiaohei stared at him expressionlessly.

But the current timing was also rather fortunate, because he would be heading over to Shan Haiming's parent's house the day after, and although those items weren't considered expensive, they were fresh.

"Yep." Shan Haiming used a finger to scratch the top of the kitten's head, then turn aside in order to allow them the enter. "Where'd you get the cat from?"

There was a lot of stuff, so it too them both two trips to each to get everything into the trunk. After first dropping the kitten off at the veterinarian's to get its shots, Shan Haiming then took that human and kitten pair back home. Then following helping Xiao Ning take all the stuff back to his place, he went to work.

Xiaohei: "Meow."

"Ah—yeah." Xiao Ning rolled up the window until only a small gap remained before asking, "Xiao'Hei?T/n: Xiaohei means little black, and it's not the same Xiao used in Xiao Ning's name."

Xiao Ning felt the kitten's body entire body once, confirming its fur was completely dry before turning off the dryer. With a smile, he looked at the snowball in his lap, saying, "Nice, you smell great."

"Huh? Looks like this spot wasn't washed properly." Xiao Ning noticed that on the completely snow white kitten, there was a still a little black spot on its tail. He used his finger to rub it a bit, but the colour didn't rub off.

Then following helping Xiao Ning take all the stuff back to his place, he went to work.

The kitten couldn't understand any of his words, however. Resulting in all its little claws extended as was held in Xiao Ning's hand, and piercing little holes into his flesh. But, not caring at all about the stinging pain, Xiao Ning simply used his other hand to continue soothing the kitten. "It's alright. Don't be scared."

Pet

Right then, Shan Haiming came back in with carrying a saucer which he put down on the coffee table. Taking a look, Xiao Ning saw it was warm milk. Holding the kitten, he said, "Here you go, say thank you."

I have no idea if that's a promise or a complaint.

"Huh? Looks like this spot wasn't washed properly." Xiao Ning noticed that on the completely snow white kitten, there was a still a little black spot on its tail. He used his finger to rub it a bit, but the colour didn't rub off.

Xiao Ning returned to the living room afterwards and opened up the box. Inside, there were flower cakes, ham and mushrooms. He then divided it into two portions, one was to be taken with him him on Sunday, and the other was to be mailed to the Lu's the next day. The two elders never expected their kids to send back any extraordinary delicacies, as only wanting to know their children were doing alright, and that they were on those children's mind was good enough.

"No, I'll do it." Xiao Ning took the kitten over and sat down next to his assistant. Spreading a towel over his lap, he then supported the kitten, picked up the dryer before he again said coaxingly, "Don't move, okay? I'm going to help dry you off."
