Chapter 23 My Cat

The pet shop that went straight and turned left was very familiar to Shen He.

He became a film star at the age of 16. In the first year when he returned to China, because he was afraid of being lonely, he raised a cat. All the pet supplies were bought in that store.The store manager is a good-tempered uncle who also has a big golden retriever.

But for Shen He, those are all memories of the past.The Shen family didn't have any pets, and Shen's father and Shen's mother didn't dare to let Shen He keep pets, for fear that something might go wrong.However, there are often stray cats near the bookstore, they are dirty, and I don’t know where they usually hide for the night. Only when it’s meal time, they will follow the scent and squat in front of other people’s doors.

On the night when Shen He came back from the finale, he saw a few of them at the intersection, which brought back memories all of a sudden.Especially after seeing that middle-aged man, he recalled the scene when he was busy filming and didn't have time to take care of the cat at home, so he just threw the little guy to that man's care.

Things are different, and I don't know how much I can get back.

Shen He thought about it, sighed, and walked slowly along the road, hesitant to bring another cat home.As he passed the window of the pet store, he stopped and looked at the window.

The place by the window is still the same as in the past, there are several cages, and a few kittens are kept in the cages, and there is a circle surrounded by it. The manager's big golden retriever is the same as before, lying lazily in it to sleep .Because he was used to people standing at the window watching, the big golden retriever didn't even bother to move his tail, and continued to sleep lying down.

Suddenly someone strode out from the open store door, with a phone in his hand: "Why didn't you disappear? Have you looked around?"

The speaker's voice was too familiar, Shen He turned his head and met Sheng Boyong's sight, both of them were a little stunned.

Sheng Boyong said a few more words to the person on the other end of the phone, and nodded to Shen He after hanging up: "Meet you again."

Shen He bent his lips: "Brother Sheng has pets at home?"

"My friend's cat..." Sheng Boyong hesitated, "I received a call on the day you finished shooting, saying that the cat was sick and refused to eat, so I came back to have a look."

"Have you seen a doctor?" Because of Sheng Boyong's words that night, Shen He was actually a little wary of him.Shen He is Song Lin, and Song Lin is Shen He. If possible, he would rather keep this secret for the rest of his life, but if someone is willing to share it with him and help him keep it a secret, he also hopes that such a person exists.

He didn't know if Sheng Boyong was this person, but at least for now, they could be friends.

"I just got off the plane, and I haven't had time to go home to have a look. Just now, the aunt at home said that the cat ran away."

A cat is a creature that looks down upon the world.If you run away, it may be difficult to find it again.The anxiety on Sheng Boyong's face was not a disguise, Shen He could see it clearly, seeing his rare look of being overwhelmed, he suddenly felt relieved: "Brother Sheng, let me help you find it. Multiple people and multiple helpers."

Sheng Boyong did not refuse his kindness.The two took a taxi back to Sheng Boyong's residence, and walked along the neighborhood while calling the cat's name.

Sheng Boyong said that the lost cat was named Mimi.In Shen He's heart, he wanted to complain about Shanda's naming level, but seeing his expression, he finally swallowed it down.

The two searched around the neighborhood a few times, but they didn't see a cat, not even a wild cat.After meeting Xiao Zheng, Sheng Boyong's assistant, he started to search around the community.

Sheng Boyong was wearing a peaked cap and an inconspicuous casual shirt. Others only thought that someone's cat had run away. Cat slaves were looking for him everywhere, and he didn't think about the word "Sheng Boyong" at all. .

It took me a long time to look for it, and I searched all the nearby parks and shopping malls, but I couldn't find the cat, but a few wild cats came out from the bushes and called twice.

Seeing that Sheng Boyong turned around and left as if he had suddenly thought of something, Shen He didn't care to tease the kittens wrapped around his feet, so he trotted a few steps to keep up.

"Brother Sheng, have you thought of any other places where the little guy might go?"

"Probably... it's the home of its original owner."

The moment he got off the taxi, looking at the familiar neighborhood in front of him, Shen He hesitated for a moment-this is the villa area where he lived before, and he returned to it again as Shen He just a few months ago here.He thought he would never come back again in this life, but he didn't expect to come here again today.

He turned his head to look at Sheng Boyong, who frowned and walked into the community with his long legs.Shen He sighed and followed his steps.

The road under my feet is getting more and more frightening.Shen He unknowingly slowed down his pace, and the heart in his chest was beating even harder.He struggled to keep up, and when he saw the villa that finally stopped Sheng Boyong, his expression finally changed.

That was his villa, with almost all his memories since he became famous.

"Look, Brother Sheng, it's Mimi!"

Xiao Zheng's eyes were sharp, and he immediately found a mass of black hair squatting behind the iron gate of the villa.

Because after searching for a long time, the sky was actually a little dark, and the black fur ball was lying behind the iron gate. If you didn't look carefully, it would be easy to be mistaken.

"Your Majesty..."

Shen He's voice was not heavy, Xiao Zheng looked back at him suspiciously, saw that his complexion was not very good, thought he was sick, and was about to inquire, when suddenly he heard the cat that hadn't meowed much since he arrived at Brother Sheng's house. cried out sadly.

That sound, it sounded like being abandoned by the master, the voice was drawn very long and weak.

Sheng Boyong squatted in front of the iron gate, trying to call the cat out: "Good boy, let's go home..."

The black cat just looked back at him without any reaction, and after a long time it turned back and screamed miserably towards the closed door.

"Your Majesty...why are you at Brother Sheng's place?"

Shen He had the urge to be honest about his identity for a moment, but he swallowed the words back.

Sheng Boyong didn't look at him, but fixed his eyes on the door, as if the man who lived behind the door would open the door with the cat in his arms, walk around the small garden, and turn around after a while.

"After Song Lin's accident, the house here was taken away by Yan Ning. After a few days, the house was cleaned up and Wei Yan moved in. I saw He Tian throwing the cat outside the iron gate when I passed by occasionally... "

Many insiders lived in this villa area. Shen He always lived here alone when he was still Song Lin, and Yan Ning almost never stayed here overnight.Moreover, the relationship between Song Lin and Sheng Boyong was at most just an accidental encounter, so it was normal for him to pick up the king when he appeared in the villa area, but he didn't know the name of the king.

But Yan Ning, Wei Yan...

Shen He clenched his fists, his nails almost digging into his palms.

This is Song Lin's house, which he paid in full, and the name of "Song Lin" is written in black and white on the real estate certificate. Why did it become Yan Ning's property in the end, and why did Wei Yan live in it!

Even if Song Lin died, he should donate it to the Hope Project as a legacy like other properties under his name.Now that I think about it carefully, maybe not only this villa, but even the assets under Song Lin's name were embezzled by those two shameless men.

The more Shen He thought about it, the angrier he became.However, the king's cry gradually calmed him down.

"How about I climb over the wall and go in?"

Xiao Zheng looked at the black cat behind the iron gate with distress.Since I got this cat, I haven't seen it eat well. It used to be quite fat, but now it's so thin that it can be easily picked up with one hand.If Song Linquan knew about this, I don't know if he would be blamed.

"No need to climb over the wall." Sheng Boyong stood up and was considering the feasibility of climbing over the wall, but Shen He suddenly stopped them, "I can call him out."

Sheng Boyong lowered his head, and Shen He's eyes showed determination: "Brother Sheng, I have raised cats before."

"But Mimi is different from other cats, she has a very stubborn temper..."

Xiao Zheng was a little anxious, but before he could finish speaking, Shen He suddenly lowered his voice and called out "King" softly.

The cat's ears moved, but did not look back.

Shen He continued to shout.

The cat's ears moved, its tail began to wag hesitantly, and even its barking became much lighter.

"Your Majesty..." Shen He shouted again, the ball of black fur suddenly stood up from the ground, and when he turned his head, his bi-colored cat eyes opened wide, as if he was confirming the stranger who called his name identity of.

Shen He looked at it and stretched out his hand: "My lord, we are going home."

The cat finally turned around, shook its fur, and walked slowly towards the door, sniffing continuously as it walked.

The more Shen He looked at it, the more distressed he became.

He named the little guy Dawang at the beginning because it always had a disdainful feeling of "I'm older than you".He thought it was fun, so he started shouting "King" and "King". After a long time, the king remembered his name.A few months ago, Dawang was still a fat black cat. Although he was very old and would leave forever, he would occasionally jump off the bedside table early in the morning and reward him with the "cat meat bomb". He screamed out loud.But now, the king has lost a lot of weight, and his ribs can be seen.

The king walked very slowly, he didn't know whether he had no strength or felt that the person calling him was too strange.Until it got close to Shen He's palm, it looked cautious, and there was a bit of doubt in its blue eyes.

The smell is unfamiliar, and the face is unknown, but the tone of the speech is really like a shit shovel officer...

Shen He saw the king slowly sitting down on the front of his palm, and his long black tail wiped the ground one by one.

"My lord, come on, good boy, let's go home, and I'll make you something to eat. The cat food made with saury, beef and pumpkin, do you want to eat it?"

While Shen He was talking, Sheng Boyong was standing by the side.Song Lin's villa is on the side of the community, and there are very few neighbors, so that they stayed here for so long, and no one came to watch the fun or call the police because they felt strange.But it's not the way to go in the long run.

He was just about to climb over the wall to bring the cat out, the ball of fur squinted its eyes unmoved, then bent down, wiped Shen He's wrist, and got out from the narrow gap under the iron gate.

"Come out, come out!"

Xiao Zheng screamed happily, reaching out to pick up the cat.But seeing the cat rubbing against Shen He's calf, with its long tail wrapped around his ankle, it seemed that it wasn't depressed anymore.

Shen He picked up the king and touched its back distressedly: "Okay, let's get back to the car first." After he finished speaking, he looked up at Sheng Boyong.The outline of the man's eyes was very deep, and there seemed to be a whirlpool hidden in the fundus of his eyes. Shen He subconsciously moved his gaze away, lowered his head and kissed the cat's head that came closer.

He didn't know how to confess to Sheng Boyong, just like he still didn't understand why Sheng Boyong doubted his and Song Lin's identities.

He obviously didn't have much contact with him, but why did this man keep Song Lin's matter in his heart.
