82: Chapter 82 Little Nuomi Lives in a Big Villa From Then On!

Chen Yu said with a straight face, "What kitten? How come I didn't know about it?"

[Keep pretending! I saw its cat tail!]

"You sure have sharp eyes, seeing tails out of thin air."

[Stop acting, Chen Yu, we all saw it. You picked up a stray cat!]

[Kitty: A hero descended from the sky and saved me!]

[Kitty: He hid me in the house so others couldn't see me, so I became the cat in the 'golden house hiding a cat'.]

Chen Yu sighed again; this generation of netizens is just too talented!

"Alright, I'll stop teasing you. Since you've all seen it, I'll lay my cards on the table."

"Ta-da!" Chen Yu provided his own sound effects.

"Show yourself, little baby!" Chen Yu moved gently, picking up the dazed kitten and holding it in his arms.

He stroked its little head.

[Wow! I'm so jealous of the cat. I want to be held in Chen Yu's arms too.]

[Is the person above trying to crush Chen Yu with their 'thousand-pound' body?]

[What a 'thousand-pound' body! 'Sitting in one's lap without being disturbed'? More like directly crushing the other person to death.]

[You're getting off-topic. Don't stop me from looking at the kitty.]

Seeing the start-of-stream notification.

Su Lingyin quickly opened the live stream.

She happened to see Chen Yu bringing out the little tabby cat.

Her eyes widened!

She even forgot she was in a meeting; her facial expression control completely failed.

Chen Yu, where did he get a cat?!

Did he buy it today?!

Watching the comments section where everyone was chiming in, she finally understood the reason behind it.

"Lawyer Su?"

"Hmm? What is it?"

"The meeting notes for today have all been recorded. What do you think?"

"Alright, let's end it here for now."

Suddenly, bullet chats began to appear—

[By the way, does this kitten have a name?]

[How about Xiao Hei?]

[Xiao Hei is too common. Xiao Hua is more fitting for its appearance!]

[Guai Guai!]

[Great General!]

[Black Tiger King!]

Before Chen Yu could say anything, the vast number of fans had already started using their talents to come up with various names.

[Paomian Daren]: I think we should call it Nuomi. It's tiny and soft, very cute.

Chen Yu: "We'll talk about the name later. I need to discuss it with... everyone at The Cottage."

['Everyone'? What are you hiding? Just say Su Lingyin.]

Seeing his thoughts exposed, Chen Yu felt a bit guilty.

"Ahem, that's not important."

Seeing that everyone was very interested in the little fellow, Chen Yu picked up his phone and showed the fans what he had bought today.

[Chen Yu looks like a stay-at-home dad, especially with that smile when he introduces the toys.]

"So many things..." Su Lingyin thought to herself. Maybe she should go pick him up. Chen Yu didn't have a car, so it would be very inconvenient to carry all those things.

She knew Chen Yu's way of traveling—the multi-million dollar chauffeur: the subway.

Yes, it's settled.

Everyone is a good friend; helping each other is normal.

But since she didn't have his contact information, she planned to wait downstairs in advance. Chen Yu would be very surprised when he saw her.

She finished her work as quickly as possible and then went to wait downstairs from Chen Yu's place.

Technically, based on the altitude, it should be considered upstairs from Chen Yu.

...

After Chen Yu's live stream ended, he walked out of the hallway carrying bags of all sizes.

He saw a familiar car waiting downstairs.

"This?!"

Before Chen Yu could step forward to confirm, a pair of long, straight legs stepped out.

"Su Su?!"

That was exactly the expression she wanted.

Su Lingyin showed a triumphant smile, which disappeared a second later as if it had never happened.

Chen Yu was dazed. Did Su Su just smile?

"I watched your stream and guessed you'd have a lot of things to carry. Since my work ended early today, I came over."

"Then you must have been waiting a long time?"

Su Lingyin shook her head. "I just arrived not long ago. I timed it perfectly."

The Car: I've clearly been here for an hour. Is it just my imagination?

Your time and my time don't seem to be the same!

"What a cute little kitten. What should we name it?"

"Chen Yu, have you thought of a name yet?"

Chen Yu shook his head. "You help me think. After all, names given by girls are cuter, and this little one is a girl too."

Su Lingyin pondered for a moment and said, "Let's call her Nuomi then. Xiao Nuomi, sounds good, right?"

Chen Yu showed a look of surprise. This name was so familiar, as if he had heard it before.

He thought back carefully.

He remembered!

Paomian Daren!!!

Such a coincidence?

"What's wrong with you?" Su Lingyin frowned in confusion.

"What... what is your Douyin name?" Chen Yu developed a hint of suspicion.

Because Su Lingyin liked eating instant noodles!

It was too coincidental!

Chen Yu observed Su Lingyin's expression but didn't find anything unusual.

She calmly said, "No Work on Saturday."

Chen Yu: "???"

That sounds a bit... funny.

"For real?"

"For real!"

"Is there a problem?"

"No, no problem. It's quite cute."

It must be so; Su Su wouldn't lie to him.

Su Su: I never said a person only has one account.

Su Lingyin usually used an alt account to watch Chen Yu's live streams. That way, even if Chen Yu checked the profile, he wouldn't find anything.

Su Lingyin gave him a playful glare and then pinched the little fellow's cheek.

"So cute, Nuomi~"

"Xiao Nuomi~"

"I haven't agreed yet." Chen Yu watched as a layer of maternal radiance seemed to appear on Su Lingyin.

An invisible bond also formed among the three of them.

"Meow~"

Back at The Cottage.

"Eh? How come you also brought a cat back?"

Chen Yu was confused. "Who else?"

"Xiaxia!"

"She brought back a puppy, a little Corgi. Its legs are really short." Shen Yanzhou burst out laughing.

Corgi: Are you being polite?

The little Corgi seemed to catch the scent of Nuomi and struggled out of Xia Ningle's arms.

Xia Ningle also ran out after it.

"Eh? You guys have a little pet too? It's so cute! But is it hurt?"

The little fellow had a pitiable aura, its large eyes round and full of moisture.

"Meow~" Xiao Nuomi shrank her head.

She seemed a bit afraid of strangers.

Especially that four-legged beast circling around her on the floor!

Its legs are so short; it probably can't run very fast.

Xia Ningle stroked the little one's head; it was fluffy and soft.

Completely different from her own Kele's hard head.

"Oh right, let me introduce you. This is my pet, named Kele!"

"What's your cat's name?"

"Nuomi."

Chen Yu and Su Lingyin said in unison.

Shen Yanzhou and Xia Ningle were fed a large mouthful of 'dog food'.

"Do you two have to be so in sync?!"

Chen Yu and Su Lingyin smiled at each other, the tips of their ears turning a shade of red.

"Who came up with this name? It's so cute!"

Chen Yu pointed at Su Lingyin.

"I knew it!" Xia Ningle laughed.

Chen Yu: Are you being polite?!

Why can't I come up with any good names?

Xiao Bai, Tuanzi, Xiao Hei...

"Alright, hurry up and put down these bags." Shen Yanzhou helped Chen Yu carry the things into the house.

From now on, Xiao Nuomi lived in a grand villa!
