There was silence in the corridor.

The two were silent for a while, but the grandma sitting on the side broke the silence. “Young master, why don’t you help Xiao Ling? She’s just a girl and it’s not easy, she still has a long future ahead.”

Xia Ling glanced gratefully at the old grandma.

Li Lei said, “I will definitely help her. Xiao Ling, my invitation from last time still stands. Come to Skyart Entertainment, our treatment would be better than Imperial Entertainment.”

Xia Ling hesitated and thought about it, then said softly, “I don’t want to trouble you. Have you heard of Wang Jingwan’s matter? Pei… he’s convinced I was the murderer, and the Wang family is looking for me too.”

Li Lei was a little surprised. “Pei Ziheng came to find me a while ago just to investigate this matter, but I told him it was impossible for you to have done it. Why, he still doubts you?”

Xia Ling was shocked. “He came to find you?”

“Yes.” Li Lei smiled a little ridiculously. “He asked me if I was your accomplice. I thought he would wake up a little after that day, and find the real murderer.”

“When did that happen?”

Li Lei recalled and told her the date.

Xia Ling was shocked senseless for a while, then she said, “I escaped not long after.” Had Pei Ziheng found the real murderer now? Or, was he still convinced she was the murderer and didn’t even bother looking? Her thoughts were chaotic and her heart she thought had died started beating again.

Li Lei surveyed her expression and said, “I can help you inquire about the latest developments in this matter, and also protect you from his infringement. So, what do you think about Skyart? You are safe enough under my wings.”

Indeed, going to Skyart Entertainment was the best choice.

She was a big star and couldn’t change her career, and Skyart Entertainment was not a small entertainment company. It was the only company in the whole entertainment industry that could compete with Imperial Entertainment. Since she had already fallen out with Pei Ziheng, unless she wanted to hide for a lifetime and be unable to eat a proper meal, she could only choose Skyart Entertainment.

“Go.” The grandma also advised her. “Xiao Ling, I know you’re not an ordinary person. Your skin is so well maintained, and the way you talk and walk is so beautiful, you must have been pampered since young. You and this young master belong to the same world. Don’t shortchange yourself, do what you want to do.”

What she wanted to do?

Her crystal world had collapsed and there was nothing she wanted to do. However, she couldn’t rely on grandma and live in her house forever. She pondered over it for a moment and said to Li Lei, “We have many cats that have been poisoned. I’ll help grandma settle this matter, and once the treatment is finished, I’ll contact you.”

Li Lei smiled slightly and his voice was very soft. “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”

The cats were still in the treatment room, so Li Lei didn’t leave and continued to sit with them.

Xia Ling was a bit curious. “How come you are at a pet hospital? Do you have a pet at home?”

Li Lei said, “Yes, I have a leopard. I took it for a medical examination today. I was afraid of scaring other people and animals, so I sealed the hospital.” Then, he chuckled. “Er Mao is actually very obedient.”

A leopard?

Xia Ling didn’t know much about these things, but she also knew that it wasn’t easy to raise a beast as a pet. Besides having financial resources, there must also be courage and boldness. The man in front was probably not as gentle and harmless as he looked on the surface. However, these were not the things she should care about.

She was going to Skyart Entertainment to be a good singer and earn money to support herself, so she shouldn’t think about other things.

After chatting, the doors of the treatment room opened and the veterinarian came out holding the cats and said, “Fortunately you brought them here in time, most of their lives have been saved. You should pay more attention to them these days and don’t let them eat anything randomly.” Then, he also explained a lot of precautions.

Xia Ling and her grandma listened carefully. Then, they bid farewell to Li Lei and took the cats home.

They had managed to save seven or eight cats and they were not in life-threatening danger anymore and seemed to have regained some spirits. Xia Ling helped the grandma carry them into the house. She stared at the many cats and sighed. “It’s too crowded.”

“There’s no choice,” the grandma said. “It’ll be cold after a few days and it’ll be even more crowded. I have to hold those sick and weak ones together.” She busied about cleaning up and finally cleaned up, then straightened her back and said to Xia Ling, “Xiao Ling, you should put some effort to dress up the healthy cats. Comb their fur and help me send some small advertisements out and see if there are any good people who want to adopt them and give them a home.”

Xia Ling remembered being in an orphanage when she was young, how she had waited to be adopted like these lonely cats, so she said softly, “Okay.” She carefully combed them, sprayed insecticides and waited for them to find a good master.

Someone really did adopt the cats.

The cats were adopted one by one and grandma was elated. “With a home, they don’t have to be hungry and cold anymore. Xiao Ling, wait till we send a few more, then when I can handle them myself, you can go and find the young master.”

Xia Ling smiled and agreed.

On this day, there was a pair of young man and woman at the door. They wore cheap jackets and had a lot of ear holes in their ears, and their colored hair was particularly eye-catching.

“Can these cats be adopted?” the man asked loudly. “Me and Mei Hui want one each!” His eyes swept over the cats as if examining goods.

Grandma looked at their dressing and was a little uneasy. “Have you raised cats before? Cats are very cute, but they require a lot of patience. Once you raise them you can’t abandon them, can you do that?”

“Stop nagging,” the young man said and reached out to take a cat. The cat meowed in shock and jumped out. “Isn’t it just a tortoiseshell cat, it’s so ugly yet it doesn’t let me touch it, tsk. Grandma, don’t judge me because I’m wearing this, I actually loved cats since young. If you don’t believe, I can tell you—that male one there is a tortoiseshell, and the one beside it with the long hair is a calico cat, and the one at the window is a tabby. And that one, it’s sick, right? It’s so dispirited and even the nose isn’t wet enough and the fur isn’t shiny.”

He talked about each of them.

The old grandma was a little reassured now. She couldn’t judge a book by its cover.

The girl with the same colorful hair smiled and said, “Don’t look at Ah Da and me like that just because we’re dressed like this, we actually really love cats and have raised cats for many years. Our cat just died a month ago and we were very upset, so we wanted to adopt a new cat to replace it.”

“Then, why do you want two this time?” Xia Ling asked.

The young girl looked at Xia Ling. Ever since she had entered, she noticed the sunglasses worn by Xia Ling. If she wasn’t wrong, it should be a very expensive brand. “Sister, this sunglasses is really beautiful,” she said with a smile. “DTS, right, it’s limited edition, isn’t it still not sold in China? Where did you buy it, you’re too rich.”
