He immediately let out a huge yell: “Put down Sweet Pea!”
The shop owner’s body stiffened. His hand was immediately bitten furiously by the angry cat!
“Ah–! You damn cat…… ” His hand loosened. The cat immediately leaped down and rushed directly at He Qian!
He Qian quickly walked over. However, he saw Sweet Pea stopped hesitatingly before him. He Qian jumped in fear. What if Sweet Pea hated him for making it suffer?
The next second, Sweet Pea started circling his foot carefully, letting out weak feeble meows. It avoided rubbing against him, almost like it was afraid to… get him dirty.
He Qian’s tears immediately rushed forth. He crouched down and carefully picked up Sweet Pea. Sweet Pea struggled faintly, but it had no strength. Very quickly, he leaned his chin on He Qian’s arm, abdomen rising and falling faintly with his breathing.
His originally pretty and shiny fur was a complete mess and tangled at the moment. He Qian petted him softly and cooed: “It’s okay. It’s okay. Daddy’s back.”
Sweet Pea lifted his head slightly to look at He Qian, letting out a breath of relief inside.
You’re back. That’s really great. If you took any longer, he really couldn’t endure anymore in this little cat’s body. He put his chin on the back of the man’s hand, and very quickly, fell into a deep slumber.
Seeing Sweet Pea let out quiet snores, He Qian finally withdrew his gentle and tender expression. His face was full of coldness and rage as he looked at the store owner: “I hope you can give me a good explanation about what happened.”
This wasn’t the first time that he left Sweet Pea with this store owner, but this was the first time he saw how unskilled and inexperienced the store owner was at holding a cat.
Before there was always a cage. How would he know that this store owner directly held a cat by the neck with his hand?
Startled, the store owner blurted out as soon as he opened his mouth: “This is not my fault! It’s all because it ran off!” When he finished, he thought for a moment and said obstinately: “Look, in order to catch it again, I didn’t even open the store!”
He Qian scoffed: “Then why don’t you explain to me. Sweet Pea is this obedient, why would he run away?”
Sweet Pea was only a small cat. He’s clingy and afraid of strangers. One reason why He Qian kept leaving Sweet Pea at this store was because he thought Sweet Pea was familiar with it.
Who would have thought……
Lowering his head, He Qian looked painfully at Sweet Pea in his arms. Who knew how Sweet Pea managed to spend the last few days.
The store owner felt a bit guilty from his questioning, yet at the same time a bit annoyed. Wasn’t it just a bit of money? Was a cat more important than a person?
“How would I know? It just suddenly ran off without reason. Let me tell you. It bit me and caused me to close shop and lose money for a few days. You need to compensate for this!”

Wicked people will suffer for their wicked deeds. In order to deal with this kind of ridiculous person, He Qian will make sure to arrange for people to punish him thoroughly.
More worried about Sweet Pea, He Qian called a taxi and brought the cat into the biggest vet hospital in the city. Getting into the car, he sent a few messages. Seeing the person reply that he will go in person to ‘deal’ with the store owner, he finally turned his complete attention to Sweet Pea.
“……. You came just in time. It hasn’t eaten in three days. What’s wrong with you? Also, we just looked over it carefully. Did it not get vaccinated?” The veterinarian’s tone was not very good and he looked at He Qian like he was looking at a scumbag.
He Qian froze and quickly took out Sweet Pea’s vaccination booklet from his briefcase: “Imposible. Sweet Pea got all of his vaccination shots.”
The veterinarian accepted the booklet with a doubtful look. After making certain and looking at it several times, he gave it back with a hint of anger: “Where did you get these? Were you swindled? These fees are completely outrageous. Why did these shots cost over tens of thousands? And the vaccination listed on here is a complete mess. This is clearly not a proper place! There’s actually this kind of store?”
He Qian’s expression gradually stiffened.
It’s…all his fault.
It’s because he didn’t know which to choose, so he assumed the most expensive must be the best…
The veterinarian saw his expression and immediately knew this man was swindled. He shook his head. Can’t hate the person who got tricked, can only hate the swinder.
Giving the vaccination booklet back to He Qian, the veterinarian said: “Then let’s first arrange a full body physical. As for you, I suggest you take this vaccination booklet and the receipt you obtained before and find quality control. This kind of irresponsible store should be penalized severely.”
He Qian squeezed the vaccination booklet, like a person who was just shocked awake from a dream.
He slowly nodded his head. Looking at Sweet Pea who was currently sleeping, he suddenly gave the veterinarian a huge bow: “Then I’ll be leaving Sweet Pea in your care.”
The veterinarian patted him on the shoulder: “Don’t worry. Our vet hospital has been open for over a dozen years. Our reputation and public appraisal is well known.”
He Qian nodded his head, then looked at Sweet Pea deeply again, before leaving in a hurry.
The veterinarian saw him walk away, then look at the little kitty cat who was fast asleep, and leaned down to pet the cat’s head. He revealed an extremely gentle smile: “You’re called Sweet Pea, right? You have a very good owner. You should get better quickly so you can return healthily to your owner’s side, k?”
Sweet Pea… heard everything.
He slightly stretched his foot. The injury on it has been carefully and gently taken care of. That was indeed a very good owner. He also wished he could get better soon.
Closing his eyes, he finally drifted off into a deep sleep.
The pet store owner was still calculating how to obtain money from He Qian. However, the next day when his store opened, a group of thugs entered and looked around all over. Occasionally, they even knocked over things in the store and scared away the new customers that just arrived today.
The store owner was just about to get mad when not long after, people from quality control and the business department arrived and expressed that someone filed a complaint about him using counterfeit products. The store owner couldn’t stop them from entering and immediately got caught at the scene.
“You’d even sell expired canned food? And also this, this shit brand only cost 50 dollars but you actually priced it $303?” The people from quality control and the business department were astonished. When they discovered that the so-called vaccines in the store were actually some normal vitamin shots, their complexion changed.
The people from the business department immediately closed the store in the fastest manner possible. This was probably one of the most vile schemes they’ve seen!
Quality control also contacted He Qian and expressed that his complaint and report of the situation was completely true. The store has been closed by the business department. As for his compensation, the money will be sent to his bank account after this thing is settled.
Meanwhile the store owner was directly taken away by the police who were contacted by the business department. When he exited the door, everyone around all pointed and bad mouthed him under their breaths. By this time, if the store owner wasn’t aware that everything happened because he offended He Qian, he’d really be dumb.
However, it was already too late.
The issue with the pet store owner just settled. He Qian immediately received a phone call from the veterinarian: “We’ve already carefully examined Sweet Pea. Other than the vaccines it needs to make up, it’s pretty much all set. Whenever you have time, you can come bring it home. I see he’s really very clingy. As soon as he got his energy back, he became all restless in his cage and started clawing everywhere.”
His tone carried a hint of humor. Smart people can easily tell that not only was he not angry, he was actually happy because of Sweet Pea.
He Qian quickly agreed. Good thing he was still on the last day of his vacation so he swiftly headed off to the vet hospital.
After he entered the vet, the first thing he saw was the flash of a vigorous figure flying at him. He Qian reflexively held out both hands. But unexpectedly, Sweet Pea landed directly on his face!
He was stunned for 0.01 seconds, hands subconsciously moving to hold steady the cat’s body and press it against his face.
“Pfft.” The veterinarian and the other people all couldn’t help but laugh, turning around to hide the fact that their shoulders were trembling madly.
Flushing red, He Qian hastily pulled Sweet Pea off.
Sweet Pea also felt very guilty. He hasn’t been a cat for many days. Estimating his strength wrong when he pounced on someone… was pretty normal, right?
He Qian pulled Sweet Pea off, but not only was he not angry. On the contrary, he was extremely happy: “Sweet Pea, are you better?”
He carefully examined for a moment and discovered that not only was the dirty cat a few days ago now nice and clean, its fur was also combed and brushed back to its natural fluffiness.
Sweet Pea also examined his ‘owner’ for the first time.
A young man. Not to mention, for some reason he felt that this face… was somewhat familiar?
On this side, one cat and his owner greeted each other warmly. On the other side, the veterinarian wiped away tears from the corner of his eyes and walked over to pat He Qian on the shoulder.
“You can go pay the bill later. Don’t forget to bring Sweet Pea back for his vaccinations. Also, although saying this can easily make people misunderstand, I suggest you rebuy everything that Sweet Pea used before.”
The news of that store has spread everywhere within his profession so even he’s heard about what kind of terrible things the store did. Although saying those words can easily cause misunderstanding, he still felt it better to remind this young man.
He Qian froze briefly and then nodded: “Okay.”
Now that it’s mentioned, when Sweet Pea was young, he really disliked the cat nest very much and always loved to stick to He Qian’s side and sleep next to him.
Now that he thought about it……
He Qian’s heart squeezed. He looked down at Sweet Pea in his arms.
How come he looked very upset?
Sweet Pea tilted his head and used his big round eyes to look at his ‘owner’.
He felt like, this face… shouldn’t have that kind of upset expression.
As he thought, he stood up slightly and pressed the two peach blossom pads on his feet to the sides of He Qian’s mouth. His furry forehead bumped directly into He Qian’s mouth and made him eat a mouthful of fur.
He Qian froze for a second and then suddenly laughed: “Not for nothing, you’re really very sticky.”
Sweet Pea: ……?
Where did you get this conclusion???
With a smile on his face, He Qian carried Sweet Pea into a pet store that the vet recommended to purchase everything for him again. This time he didn’t buy the most expensive brand, but instead, let Sweet Pea pick each item himself.
Sweet Pea was also very curious. A huge new door to the world gradually opened for him. So to be a cat, he needed to buy this many things?
One man and one cat walked in a line. In the front, the cat used his foot to tap things. In the back, the person following him would buy the items.
This kind of warm and sweet scene instantly made plenty of other customers laugh in understanding.
Why do I have a feeling sweat Pea is the (original) Rong Qing…?
