Chapter 97 - Weak, Helpless, and Pitiful

Bai Ruoruo bit her lips as her eyes flushed and filled with tears that were on the brink of falling down her face, looking truly pitiful. “It’s okay… Sister Xiang Yi, it’s just a cat, I won’t bicker with it…”

Several comments brushed by saying things like [Ruoruo is so kind] and [Poor girl].

“That’s enough!” A shout came from Xiang Yu as he picked up Xiao Naofu, softly rubbing its back. “I don’t believe that Xiao Naofu would scratch you for no reason! Don’t slander it!”

Bai Ruoruo: ???

Seeing someone supporting it, XIao Naofu began to cry out more and more: “Meow~meow meow~~!”

Xiang Yu felt very distressed for the cat’s well being.

Look! The poor cat has already been so wronged!

“Little baby, don’t be scared, you have me.”

The netizens: ???

— [/Shocked/ Smog actually called a cat baby??]

— [Hahaha I’m laughing so hard all the lights within a 10-km radius are flashing for me]

— [Although I feel kind of bad for Bai Ruoruo, I really want to laugh ehehehe]

Bai Ruoruo’s tears pitter-pattered down as she really began to cry.

“Why would I lie? Do these injuries not count as proof??”

Xiang Yu hesitated.

Bai Ruoruo’s injuries were indeed scratch marks.

“Meowuu~Wuuwuu~~~” The cat whimpered in his arms, its pinkish white paws clawing at Xiang Yu’s collar.

Xiang Yu lowered his head and his gaze met Xiao Naofu’s watery pair of crystal blue pupils gazing back at him.

…F*ck!

What kind of mistreatment did the poor cat suffer to reveal such an aggrieved expression!

Xiang Yu suddenly felt a sense of responsibility brew within him. From now on, he would protect the cute and pitiful Xiao Naofu!

“Okay, since you mentioned evidence, then show me the evidence to prove that it was Xiao Naofu that scratched you.”

Bai Ruoruo swallowed. “I was going to the bathroom, and there were no cameras or anyone present…”

“Then you have no proof.” Xiang Yu’s eyebrows furled in an unruly manner. “Maybe another cat scratched you; the possibilities are endless. Why are you set on blaming Xiao Naofu?”

Bai Ruoruo wanted to speak but was interrupted by Xiang Yu the Cat-keeper’s eager counter, “Even if Xiao Naofu really scratched you, it was probably because you provoked it first, and it had no choice but to fight back. After all, it’s so weak, helpless, and pitiful. How could it bully you? It seems more likely to me that you were bullying it.”

The soft and creamy kitten rubbed its furry head against Xiang Yu’s collar bone, nestling in the man’s arms. It looked toward Bai Ruoruo with an innocent and naive expression.

As if it was saying: Sister, do you have a problem? Gege only has me in his heart~

Bai Ruoruo: …!!

She nearly threw up blood.

In the past, as long as she pretended to be pitiful, other people would always abide by her. How come everything was going the opposite way today?

Angered beyond reason, Bai Ruoruo was on the verge of breaking down. “It’s faking it! It’s faking it, can’t you guys tell? That cat is a White Lotus, a green tea bitch! How is it pitiful? It’s obviously vicious beyond belief!”

The next second —

Xiang Yu covered Xiao Naofu’s ears and snapped, “If you have something to say, at least say it properly! What are you scolding it for!!!”

Bai Ruoruo looked as if she had just swallowed a fly.

At this moment, Xiang Yi’s quiet and gentle voice rang out.

“There were no cameras, but the farm has surveillance cameras. I can go through it and see what really happened.”

What?? Surveillance??

Bai Ruoruo was dumbfounded, wanting to faint on the spot.
