A few minutes later, Li Muhan and Xia Yue arrived at Luo Yang's home together.

Luo Yang's parents have known Li Muhan for a long time, but they didn't like their son's friend very much before.

After all, Li Muhan had many bad rumors in high school. He was an orphan, taciturn and liked to fight.

But now, the old couple also smiled after seeing Li Muhan helping Luo Yang carry a bunch of things to the door and greeting them warmly for the New Year.

"Xiaohan, you've grown so tall. I was probably a sophomore in high school when I saw you before. You've grown up so fast."

Luo Yang's father pulled Li Muhan and Xia Yue to sit down on the sofa, while Chen Sihan and Luo Yang's mother entered the kitchen and started working.

"Uncle, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are still in good health."

"Hahaha, very tough, oh, this is..."

Luo's father looked at Xia Yue, who was sitting next to Li Muhan, holding a sleeping kitten in her arms. Before Li Muhan could speak, Luo Yang quickly introduced: "This is Li Muhan's girlfriend. How is it? She's beautiful." Bar?"

"Oh! You are what Luo Yang said before, Gu..."

"Cough cough!"

Chen Sihan's coughing sound came from the kitchen, and Luo Yang understood immediately, because his father thought the girl in front of him was Gu Ruoxi.

He quickly interrupted his father's words: "Hey! Dad, Dad! Li Muhan is here today. In addition to paying New Year's greetings to my elders, I also have a request."

"Oh? Please, Xiao Li, just tell me if you have something to do. Why are you so polite?"

Luo Yang winked at Li Muhan and told him that Li Muhan felt like he was being roasted on a fire.

Luo Yang was a little embarrassed after hearing his request just now. He said that in fact, he didn't have any say in this family. It depends on his parents' wishes, mainly his mother.

No, Li Muhan had no choice but to follow him back home. He originally wanted to wish his elders a happy New Year and visit again, but now he felt a little embarrassed when he really wanted to say it.

"...Um, uncle, this, this is Xia Yue, this is my girlfriend, Xia Yue, please call me uncle."

Xia Yue glanced at Luo's father slightly, and then shouted in a low voice: "Uncle."

"Oh! This girl is so handsome! Xiao Li is so lucky."

"Uncle, there is one more thing I want to ask you for today, that is..." Li Muhan pointed to the cat in Xia Yue's arms and said, "This is a kitten we just picked up. , It’s quite pitiful, but I can’t keep a cat where I live now, so I just thought it would be inconvenient for you..."

Before Li Muhan finished speaking, he saw a look of embarrassment on Luo's father's face, obviously unwilling.

He didn't continue talking.

"Xiao Li, um... you also know that Luo Yang's grandma also lives with us. The old man has respiratory problems. This little animal will shed its hair, so..."

"I understand, I understand, uncle. I was rude and made such a request. Don't take it to heart."

Li Muhan clearly saw a trace of disappointment flash across Xia Yue's face. After all, if Luo Yang couldn't do it, then he would have no other friends to turn to.

Then the two elders invited Li Muhan and Xia Yue to stay for a meal together in the evening. Today was New Year's Eve, so it was a good time to get together.

But Li Muhan said that he had other things to be busy with, so the two elders didn't try to persuade him to stay.

Just as they were leaving the community, Luo Yang and Chen Sihan chased him out again.

"Muhan, uh, um..." Luo Yang was obviously a little guilty. He scratched his head and said to Li Muhan, "I'm really sorry that I couldn't help."

"What's the relationship between us? You tell me this." Li Muhan smiled and patted Luo Yang on the shoulder.

Chen Sihan also said with some embarrassment: "Li Muhan, my family also... does not allow animals, so I can't help you, I'm sorry."

"Okay, okay, you two go back quickly. Remember to send me an invitation when you get married, and I will give you two red envelopes then."

Li Muhan smiled and joked, making Chen Sihan and Luo Yang blush slightly: "Mu Han, what are you talking about? Chen Sihan and I... we... haven't done that yet."

"What!? I won't let you do that. Are you dissatisfied? You didn't say it, do you have to take it seriously?"

"I didn't say anything, don't be angry, don't be angry."

Seeing the bickering between the two people, Li Muhan could only smile helplessly. Unexpectedly, Luo Yang finally found his true love. He could only say that this world is really wonderful.

In the twilight of winter, Li Muhan and Xia Yue walked aimlessly. The colorful lights on both sides of the street flickered, reflecting the bustle of the festival.

Although there were crowds of people around, laughter and blessings came one after another, Li Muhan and Xia Yue's hearts were touched by a sleeping kitten, and they were not in a relaxed mood.

If this homeless little life cannot find warm shelter, it will be sent back to the cold streets to face unknown challenges. Xia Yue knew very well that a kitten without the care of its mother cat would have very little chance of survival in such a cold winter.

"..."

Xia Yue's footsteps stalled in the bustling scene, as if every step made her worry worse.

She hugged the kitten tightly, unwilling to move forward, as if this could protect it from the cruelty of the outside world.

"...You don't have to worry too much."

Li Muhan noticed Xia Yue's worry. He turned around and gently hugged Xia Yue and the kitten into his arms. His embrace was warm and firm.

"I'll find a solution."

Xia Yue lowered her head slightly and buried her face into Li Muhan's chest. The peace of mind made her respond softly: "...Yeah."

Her voice was blocked by Li Muhan's clothes and seemed a little dull, but it echoed in the hearts of the two of them, conveying trust and dependence.

......

"So, can you help me?"

At the entrance of the supermarket, Li Muhan was talking to Lin Ziyu on his mobile phone, while Xia Yue was feeding the kitten with the canned kitten she just bought in the supermarket. The kitten must be hungry and wolfed down the food.

"Captain, it's not that I won't help you... I'm allergic to cats! And the allergy is very serious. Alas, ask Yin Qi, doesn't she like cats very much?"

After hanging up the phone, Li Muhan dialed Yin Qi's number again.

"Captain, why don't you guess why I love cats so much but don't have one?"

"...Do you have high standards? Are you not interested in ordinary cats?"

"Oh." Yin Qi sighed and said, "I live in the dormitory of the Special Administration Bureau. Pets are not allowed here. Can you contact Su Xue? She should be able to do something."

After hanging up the phone again, Li Muhan dialed Su Xue's number.

"The number you dialed is not in the service area, please call again later."

Su Xue has been on a mission for several weeks, and has not had any contact with Li Muhan and others at all. Every time Li Muhan asked Lin Ze, Lin Ze said that this was normal. During the mission, there were often situations where he could not be contacted. It also made Li Muhan relax.

So Li Muhan dialed Lin Ze's phone number again.

"Cat? Well, I have never raised an animal, and I may only be at home one day out of seven days a week, and I can't keep her in the Special Administration Office."

Listening to the background sound from Lin Ze's side, it seemed that he was in the hospital of the Special Administration Bureau.

"Wait a minute, I'll ask Yan Yu for you."

"Yan Yu? Is she okay?"

Yan Yu had fallen into a coma since the last execution team was ambushed. Although the black gas was not very harmful to humans, inhaling a large amount at close range still made her comatose in the ward for nearly a day and night.

"I woke up this morning. After checking, there are no major problems. Yan Yu, do you like cats? Do you want to raise a cat?"

"...Forest Bureau, I have dedicated everything to the Special Administration Bureau. I have sworn not to marry or have children in my life, and I will not..."

"Okay, okay, okay."

Lin Ze interrupted Yan Yu's weak voice on the hospital bed: "Li Muhan, did you hear that? I may not be able to help you. Why don't you ask someone else? Or should I ask Chang Yue for you?"

Li Muhan imagined that Chang Yue had specially made a maid outfit for the kitten, and then shouted at her: "Change! Change for me! Become a beautiful girl! You have changed!"

As soon as such a scene arose, Li Muhan shook his head violently to dispel it: "No need, Forest Bureau. The General Bureau has many things to do every day, so I won't bother him. I'll hang up now. Happy New Year's Eve, Forest Bureau."

"Well, so are you. By the way, you can come to my house when you have time. I have something to ask you."

"Okay, Forest Bureau, um... wait, I'm not going to the office, but your home?"

"Well, that's all we talked about on the phone. Okay, hang up."

beep-

Listening to the busy signal on the phone, Li Muhan was a little confused. Since the last time he went to Lin Ze's house for dinner, he had never seen Lin Ze come home. Now she suddenly asked him to go to her house. She still had something to ask herself... ....

Forget it, forget it, now is not the time to think about this.

He started looking through his address book, asking one by one who else could help.
