His mouth twitched. "And the stick…"
Xie Nuying harrumphed. "To beat up those nasty kids bullying the poor cat. I know how to set kids like them straight. I have done a lot in my university," her eyes proudly sparkled.
She leaned slightly and softly smiled at the cat. "Then I saw you taking care of them, and I was assured. As expected of my capable son-in-law."
The cat with her light brown irises stared at her and Jun. She wasn't too hostile to them and neither too free. But giving them a surprise, she hopped out of the box and slowly walked towards Jun. She nudged her head against his leg and quietly meowed.
"Oh my. I thought it would be difficult to pet her. But it seems that she likes you," Xie Nuying said. "I think she is thanking you for saving her."
Jun cautiously touched the tip of his finger over the top of her head and slowly ruffled her fur. He beamed, seeing how the cat liked it.
