When Tia heard Mingye say that he wanted to give the stray cat away, she was stunned. Seeing Mingye's resolute expression, she knew that he was not lying.
Seeing the stray cat happily eating the grilled fish, Tia suddenly felt a little sorry for it.
She hesitated for two seconds, and finally asked Mingye to let her keep the cat.
"How about you let me take care of it? I won't be short of cat food at home."
On this dark and rainy night, this cat seemed like a token sent by God, destined to connect herself and this man.
Her two encounters with Ming Ye were not pleasant, but both were unforgettable. If this relationship was destined to have no results, Tia felt that it would be good to have something to keep the memory.
Although Tia is not considered smart, she can see that Ming Ye probably likes Su Wan.
Excluding this factor, her identities and Mingye's are also very different.
Even though Tia didn't know who Ming Ye was, the fact that he was able to kidnap the eldest daughter of the Siswell family meant that he must be on bad terms with the Siswell family.
"Are you sure you want to keep this cat?"
Ming Ye narrowed his eyes, his emerald pupils shining in the night, looking at them almost captivating the soul.
"Why, is it not possible? Are you afraid that I will mistreat a stray cat?"
When Tia heard Mingye's disapproval, she subconsciously raised her chin with the pride of a young lady, and looked a little sweet and coquettish.
Although Tia is always a little arrogant towards people she doesn't like, she always subconsciously reveals a bit of the cuteness of a little girl when facing the person she likes.
This is a habit that may be hard to change.
If there were outsiders around, they would probably be able to see Tia's vague attachment to Mingye.
Mingye has always lacked experience in getting along with girls, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with Tia's behavior.
Ming Ye was not moved at all. He had an indifferent expression and pointed at the two bloody scratches on Tiya's arm, ruthlessly exposing Tiya's weakness.
"That stray cat doesn't seem to like you. It scratched you before. Aren't you afraid that if you adopt it back, it will get scratched again?"
When Tia heard this, she immediately felt embarrassed!
She curled her lips, looked at the stray cat that was still gnawing on the roast fish with some annoyance, and spoke with some lack of confidence.
"It's normal for a kitten to be a little shy. Once I train it for a few more days, it should be able to recognize people. How could it bite me casually?"
"Are you sure it's shy?"
As soon as Mingye finished speaking, the gray-black stray cat took its short legs and ran towards Mingye happily.
The cat looked well-fed and satisfied. Its two dark brown eyes curved into crescent shapes, and it leaned against Mingye with great attachment.
Even though they had just met for the first time, the stray cat seemed to have set its sights on Mingye and stayed by his legs, refusing to leave!
When Tia saw the furry little thing, she was speechless.
This man and this cat, do you want to slap her in the face so quickly!
She was the eldest daughter of the Siswell family, and she prided herself on being as beautiful as a flower, but in the eyes of a stray cat, she was not even as good as a stinky man!
Woo woo woo… This man said he doesn’t like cats, but he still brings a stray cat to bully her!
This unscientific!
Tia twisted Mingye's suit with resentment, and her eyes were filled with envy, jealousy and hatred.
It’s obvious that this man hates cats, but she likes cats!
…
Just when Tia was feeling indignant, she saw Ming Ye suddenly stand up, pick up the cat and gently put it next to Tia.
The black and gray kitten obviously still didn't like Tia, and immediately kicked its legs, trying to jump back to Mingye's feet.
But he was stopped by Mingye.
Ming Ye gently stroked the cat's fur which still had some water stains on it, his expression as indifferent as the night.
"I won't support you, but she is willing to support you, understand?"
As soon as Ming Ye finished speaking, the cat seemed to sense something and suddenly hesitated and stopped jumping up and down.
The cat turned its head and glanced at Tia with disdain on its face, and then looked back at Mingye pitifully, its brown-black eyes hazy with watery color.
“Meow… meow… meow…”
If its tail hadn't been pressed down by Mingye, it would have wagged its tail and begged for mercy!
Tia stared at the scene in amazement, almost thinking that the man and the cat could communicate.
What a ghost!
She seemed to see in the eyes of the stray cat what it felt like to be disliked!
But Ming Ye had already withdrawn his hand and sat down calmly beside him.
The cat seemed to be comforted by something and no longer resisted its fate of being assigned to Tia's side. It just lowered its head slightly and did not look very happy.
"You... do you agree to let me keep it?"
When Tia saw the cat lying obediently in her arms, she was almost overjoyed!
She boldly reached out her hand and gently stroked the stray cat.
Tia was also a forgetful person, and she completely forgot that she had been scratched twice by this cat before!
Ming Ye nodded slightly to show his agreement.
"This is your right, I have no right to interfere."
The people who least look like kidnappers and kidnapped people in history are probably the weird couple Mingye and Tia, who even decided to raise pets on a whim!
And Tia also began to discuss the naming of stray cats with great interest.
"How about calling it Meow Meow? It was barking a lot just now, and this name sounds appropriate."
If the stray cat really understood what Tia said, it would probably get furious.
What a cheesy name she has the guts to give it, this woman really has no taste at all...
"As you wish."
Mingye looked indifferent, his eyes casually cast on Tia and the cat.
Sometimes he also admired the girl in front of him. Even though she was kidnapped by him, she still had the mind to play with the cat here.
Mingye didn't know that Tia was so obedient because she liked him, otherwise she would have blown the roof off long ago.
"Meow meow meow... You're so skinny. I'll find you some dried fish next time. What else do you want to eat? How about fat-free milk?"
The cat leaned against Tia, not showing any sign of being well behaved. Instead, it acted like a boss and ignored Tia.
But Tia didn't care at all. She just focused on stroking the cat's fur and calling Meow Meow's name from time to time.
Mingye looked up at the clock and suddenly remembered that it was already very late.
"You can go to bed now."
Because Tiya was used as a hostage to exchange for Su Wan, Mingye lived in the same house with Tiya.
Of course, he slept in the outer room, which had a separate bathroom, so it would not embarrass Tia.
Tia yawned and felt a little sleepy.
She held the kitten she had just recognized today and looked back at Mingye with some reluctance.
"What's your name?"
Just when Tia thought Ming Ye would not answer, she suddenly heard the man's clear and deep voice.
"Midnight."
