Becoming a Wealthy Family’s Beloved After Her Rebirth-Chapter 124 - :1 Want to Raise a Cat
Chapter 124:1 Want to Raise a Cat
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There were two members of the Animal Rescue Association in the room. One of them was carrying the Dragon Li cat while the other was busy keying in information about the cats on the computer. No one knew if the Dragon Li cat was a stray cat or a domestic cat, and it did not have any distinct marks on its body. For this reason, when the weather improved tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, they would have to return to ask the people nearby.
A few of them gathered to name the kittens. Since they could not determine when they were born, the Animal Rescue Association gave the kittens small identity rings according to their sizes. There were four of them, and the youngest one was a female with gray and black fur.
As for the other three kittens, they were males.
The female kitten looked the most unkempt among the four kittens. Its fur was messy, and even after it was cleaned and dried, its fur was fuzzy, just like a dandelion. It was not as beautiful as its siblings. In fact, it could even be said that it was a little… ugly… but cute.
The prettiest one was the second kitten, which resembled a little cow. Its face and body were round, and it was also the liveliest. When they were drying it, it kept jumping around and meowing. They named it Little Cow even though it was not a moo cat.
The female kitten was given the name Little Chestnut because its coat resembled that of fried chestnut.
Lin Xiaowan really wanted to adopt Little Chestnut. Its personality was the complete opposite of that of Little Cow. From the moment it got into the car to the Animal Rescue Association, it did not struggle nor did it make it sound when it was held. When they let go of it, it would curl up silently at the side.
Lin Xiaowan found Little Chestnut adorable so she took a photo and sent it to Huo Zheng.
[Lin Xiaowan: 1 want to raise a cat! Can I raise a cat? *crying emoji*]
They were looking for people to adopt the kittens. Lin Xiaowan thought about her condition and felt that she met the requirements. It should be okay for her to raise a cat. Nonetheless, she still had to ask for Huo Zheng’s opinion. If Huo Zheng disagreed, then she would give up on this idea.
Unexpectedly, Huo Zheng was focused on another matter.
[Huo Zheng: Did you change your clothes? It just rained. Don’t turn on the air conditioner. It’s easy to catch a cold.]
It was already the beginning of autumn. Although it was windy and raining outside, the temperature was quite high. It was impossible not to turn on the air conditioner.
Lin Xiaowan replied, playing dumb.
[Lin Xiaowan: Yes, I’ve already changed my clothes. Hurry up and looked at the photo of the kitten I sent you! ]
After a moment, Huo Zheng replied.
[Huo Zheng: It’s up to you. If you like it, then you can raise it.]
Huo Zheng never had any interest in these things so he did not have any opinions about it. However, he thought it would be good for Lin Xiaowan to raise a cat since it could cultivate her sense of responsibility.
He enlarged the photo that Lin Xiaowan sent him and looked at it carefully before putting it away.
With this, Lin Xiaowan knew that Huo Zheng had agreed to her request. She looked for someone from the Animal Rescue Association and happily expressed her intention of adopting a kitten.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuwu stroked her chin and said, “That’s great. I can visit you next time to play with the kitten.”
The staff members of the Animal Rescue Association had a good impression of Lin Xiaowan. One of them asked, “Have you ever raised a cat before? Do you have any experience?”
Lin Xiaowan’s living conditions were not very good in the past. It was difficult for her to raise herself, let alone raise a cat. How could she have any experience? She could only shake her head and replied truthfully, “No.”
However, this was not a dealbreaker. It did not matter even if she did not have experience.
The staff member asked a few more questions such as if she was living alone or with others, if she was allowed to raise pets at home, and so on. As for her living environment and finances, the staff member was not very worried. After all, they had seen the clothes that Huo Zheng had sent her. The clothes were clearly expensive. With one look, one could tell that Lin Xiaowan’s living conditions were not bad. It was definitely not a problem for her to raise a cat, finance-wise.
The staff member was more concerned about another matter.
“You can be impulsive when raising pets. You have to be responsible for your pet. It might be naughty, and it might also get sick. You’ll have to take care of it…”
Lin Xiaowan replied seriously, “I think 1 can do it.”
“There’s also another important thing. We’ll have to visit our adopted cats and dogs occasionally. Are you okay with this?”
Lin Xiaowan did not think there was anything wrong with this so she nodded and said, “Yes!”
The other party asked, “So which one do you want to adopt?”
Lin Xiaowan pointed at the kitten and said, “Little Chestnut.”
After that, the other party told Lin Xiaowan that they would help her care for the kitten temporarily and could not give it to her immediately. After all, not only did Lin Xiaowan not have the necessary things to raise the kitten now, but the kitten was also a little weak. It had to be kept under observation for a while. Moreover, it was likely that Lin Xiaowan did not know how to take care of such a small and weak kitten.
Before signing the adoption agreement, she was also told that the Animal Rescue Association would visit her house in person.
Lin Xiaowan quickly messaged Huo Zheng, relaying everything to him.
It did not take long before he replied.
[Huo Zheng: You can decide on these matters.]
Huo Zheng did not care about matters like this and felt that Lin Xiaowan could do whatever she wanted as long as she was happy.
The weather was not good today, and it was already getting late. It was definitely not appropriate for a home visit today. For this reason, she scheduled the home visit for another day.
Lin Xiaowan’s initial plan to have dinner with Gu Yuwu alone was canceled. Since it was still raining, they ordered food and ate at the Animal Rescue Association.
Two days later.
When the weather took a turn for the better, Lin Xiaowan received a call from the Animal Rescue Association asking if they could visit today.
“Of course, you can. I’ll inform the security guard after this. What’s your license plate number?”
The vehicles that entered Lin Xiaowan’s neighborhood were strictly checked. Unregistered vehicles were prohibited from entering.
The two members of the Animal Rescue Association who came to visit were also the ones who named the kittens the other day. They were quite familiar with Lin Xiaowan and were very friendly when they met.
As soon as they arrived, they knew that there was no problem with Lin Xiaowan’s living environment.
Shengjing was a place where every inch of land was expensive. Considering the size of her house and the location of her house, which was in the city center, the kitten would surely live a good life as long as Lin Xiaowan was willing to spend time taking care of it.
Lin Xiaowan showed the duo the space she had set up for the kitten in the living room. A scratching post and a variety of toys could be seen.
“I haven’t bought the cat litter, cat food, and the like. I planned to buy those things when I pick up the cat…”
Since the Animal Rescue Association sold all kinds of pet necessities, Lin Xiaowan planned to buy everything in one go when she picked up the kitten..
