Chapter 132 – The Cat Was Made A Scapegoat For The Failed Blind Date

Although Mo Fei has gone on a “holiday”, as Mo Fei agent, Mo Xiaojuan didn’t have a holiday. She had to go back to the company to deal with the work for Mo Fei and arrange her future itineraries.

However, these days, there were more people gossiping again.

“Some people, after more than half a month has passed, we still haven’t heard anything from them, and they have vowed that they would collect enough songs to make an album!” In the hallway to the tea room, Mo Xiaojuan could hear someone deliberately raising their tone.

“Yeah! Now I guess they can’t get any songs, and are afraid of hardship and tiredness. I heard that they asked for leave to go home and have a good sleep.”

“Isn’t that the day when she will never raise her head again[1]? Is she willing to stay on the second and third lines[2] like this? “

“Who knows? Anyway, an old woman, like a worn-out yellow pearl, is of little worth[3], but still alive… Well, you know! Still wanting to be a star, dream on!”

“I understand. Sister Ling didn’t give a hush order! Ha ha…”

Some time ago, Mo Xiaojuan might have a quarrel with the other party, but now, Mo Xiaojuan has learned to ignore it.

But Mo Xiaojuan’s temper was still there. She smiled and nodded on the outside, but in her heart, she was thinking ferociously: “Cr*p, a group of little b*tches, wait for my great-aunt[4] elder sister to counterattack, see if my great-aunt won’t tear your mouths apart!”

Mo Xiaojuan still has some friends in the company, such as Xiao Ai and some girls who don’t like fighting and have a good relationship with her.

In the tea room, Mo Xiaojuan met a female colleague who was eating a fruit.

“Hey, Xiaojuan, do you want to have a cat?” The female colleague saw Mo Xiaojuan and said excitedly.

Mo Xiaojuan immediately shook her head and said with a smile, “No, you see I’m busy. I don’t even have time to find a boyfriend, so I don’t have free time to raise a little master[5]! Do you think I’m Xiao Ai?”

“It is Xiao AI’s!” The female colleague said to Mo Xiaojuan, “Don’t you know? Xiao Ai is giving her cat away! “

“Giving her cat away? No way? Xiao Ai is a cat lover!” Mo Xiaojuan asked in surprise.

The female colleague nodded, but shook her head and said, “Not all of them are given away, but the kittens have to be given away! The situation is like this…”

Under the other party’s gossip, Mo Xiaojuan finally understood what had happened.

It turned out that Xiao Ai’s parents introduced Xiao Ai to a partner who was said to be exceptional. As a result, Xiao Ai went on a blind date, but she suddenly remembered that the bedroom door to the balcony was not closed!

Big cats were fine. They were light and agile, and could come and go freely. But she was afraid that the curious kitten would climb out on the balcony and fall! Although it was only on the third floor, kittens as old as her’s would turn into a meatloaf if they fell from that height.

Do you really think cats have nine lives?

So, she refused to talk deeply with her blind date and hurried home to check on the kitten.

“Why didn’t she just ask the other party to come back with her, let the other party wait downstairs, and then close the door before continuing to date?” Mo Xiaojuan asked strangely.

“Who knows? Anyway, the guy didn’t let it drop[6], and he complained to Xiao Ai’s parents.” The female colleague curled her lips[7] and said.

Let’s not talk about Xiao Ai and that man, anyway, the blind date failed.

Xiao Ai’s Dad and Xiao Ai’s Mom were furious and ordered Xiao Ai to quickly give away all the kittens. It was good for a girl to raise a cat, but to also raise a litter as a child? Did she want a boyfriend or not? Did she want to die alone?

That was the logic of the older generation. Xiao Ai was helpless and had no choice but to contact people everywhere, trying to find someone to entrust the litter of kittens. She was not willing to give them to ordinary people, for fear that the kittens will be treated badly.

“Now she’s under a great deal of strain and worry!” The female colleague said with a sigh. She also felt sorry for Xiao Ai, so she helped her ask people around.

Mo Xiaojuan’s eyes lit up.

…….

It has been a few days since Mo Fei came to Yang Yi’s house. Except for the first day, when she was stiff with a fever, Mo Fei had been having a good time. Flower arrangement, asking Yang Yi to draw chibi portrait for her, reprimanding Yang Yi together with Xixi, and so on. It was just some trivial things in life, but life was very comfortable. She was smiling more and more, and even the evening walk was as pleasant as traveling.

Today, Mo Fei remembered that Yang Yi’s coffee shop has not opened in the past few days! Moreover, she also wanted to check whether Yang Yi had fulfilled his promise to leave her a shelf for her music CDs and peripherals. So, under the pretext of urging Yang Yi to open business normally, the family went down to the “Coffee Shop on the Street Corner”.

Today, when Yang Yi came out of the shop with the sign and hung it up, Mo Fei finally noticed the name of the shop: “Ah, Yang Yi, why is your coffee shop called ‘Coffee Shop on the Street Corner’? It’s very similar to Chen Yijie’s song “Long Time No See”.

“Oh, really? I also like this song, so later I changed it.” Yang Yi said calmly.

“Really?” Mo Fei was skeptical. She mumbled, “Why do I seem to remember that this sign is similar to the one before?”.

However, she had no intention of delving into it, and Xixi’s call distracted her attention.

“Wow, Mama!” Xixi went in first. When she saw the grand piano in the shop, her eyes lit up. She ran back out and held her mother’s hand and said as if she was showing off her treasure, “Mama, I’ll show you something!”

“What is it?” Mo Fei was led to the piano by her daughter.

“This is it! Papa says this is, this is a piano!” Xixi was worried that her mother would misunderstand like she did, and took the initiative to explain, “But it doesn’t eat steel!”

“Yang Yi, did you buy a piano?” Mo Fei was first surprised, then puzzled by her daughter, “What doesn’t eat steel?”

“Yes, I suddenly thought that it would be nice to put a piano in the coffee shop, so I bought it.” Yang Yi couldn’t help smiling. He told Mo Fei about Xixi’s comparison of electronic piano and piano that day.[8]

“Ha ha, Xixi, you silly girl!” Mo Fei was amused by her daughter.

“I’m not silly! I can play the piano!” With her chest puff out, the little girl sat down on the stool in front of the piano and asked her father to lift the lid for her.

The little girl held out a finger, poked the white keys, and then poked the black keys. Well, in her opinion, if she make a sound, she can play the piano!

“Come on, get up. Mom will show you how to play the piano!” Her daughter’s adorable “playing” reminded Mo Fei of the time when she was learning how to play the piano when she was a child, so she said enthusiastically.

“Okay, Xixi wants to see Mama play the piano!” Xixi jumped down happily.

Yang Yi also watched with interest, watching Mo Fei sitting gracefully in front of the piano. He has heard Mo Fei sing a lot of songs and even watched some videos of Mo Fei’s early programs, but he has never seen Mo Fei play the piano.

“Ding, ding, dong, dong…” Mo Fei played a string of notes from left to right on the piano with both hands, tried the notes and felt them, and then began to play.

It was an old song of hers. When Yang Yi heard the prelude, he recognized it and said, “Gentle Memories?”

Mo Fei turned to look at Yang Yi, smiled, and nodded.
