Of course, the reason “Desimu” was able to do this was because he had received instructions from his superior officers.
Gu Tangzhou had indeed already greased the right palms.
The higher-ups wouldn’t directly demand anything of him, but that didn’t mean a mere soldier like “Desimu” would just sit quietly.
Now, his superiors hadn’t offended Gu Tangzhou, and yet the matter had been broadcast across the entire internet, giving Hei Lang the justice it deserved.
What a perfectly executed livestream connection this was.
“Desimu” thanked Ruan Xingyao once again.
Ruan Xingyao said, “Since the problem’s been solved, I’ll cut the connection now.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she mercilessly cut off the call.
Immediately afterward, Ruan Xingyao released her second lucky draw.
Her blade must have been exceptionally sharp this time, since from beginning to end, neither Gu Tangzhou nor Gu Yulin had managed to forcefully shut down her livestream.
It wasn’t the first time she had been used like this.
Even though Ruan Xingyao still felt furious, for some reason she was strangely calm.
She felt as though she might even be getting used to it.
Adjusting her mood, Ruan Xingyao prepared for the second connection of the day.
The lucky draw had been claimed by a girl with the ID “I’m So Awesome I Gave Birth to Someone”.
As soon as the call connected, before Ruan Xingyao could even speak, “I’m So Awesome I Gave Birth to Someone” said in a broken voice, “Streamer Starry, help me, I’m begging you, please help me!”
Ruan Xingyao asked, “What can I do to help you?”
“I’m So Awesome I Gave Birth to Someone” said, “Streamer Starry, two months ago I gave birth to a daughter.”
Ruan Xingyao: “Congratulations!”
But right after she said that, the other girl’s lips trembled downward as if she was about to burst into tears.
“I’m So Awesome I Gave Birth to Someone” said, “Streamer Starry, can you check what’s wrong with my cat? Ever since I had my daughter, it’s been acting really strange.”
As she spoke, she pushed open the door to a room, peeked inside to make sure the baby was asleep, and then tiptoed in.
Immediately, Ruan Xingyao could hear the cat’s inner voice.
【Why’s the poop-scooper coming in here? I just barely got the little cub to sleep, don’t you dare wake her up.】
Ruan Xingyao nearly burst out laughing—the cat must have mistaken the baby for its own child.
The girl turned her phone’s camera toward the cat.
It was a majestic and imposing Maine Coon.
Especially the way it looked at the camera—absolutely like an Overbearing CEO Cat.
She said, “Starry, this is my cat. Its name is Xiaoxiaosu.”
As she spoke, she reached out to pat Xiaoxiaosu on the head.
The next second, when she tried to touch her daughter, Xiaoxiaosu smacked her hand away with a paw.
She helplessly drew her hand back, turned the camera back toward herself, and looked utterly aggrieved.
“Starry, you saw it too. Xiaoxiaosu guards my daughter like she’s its own, and it won’t even let me touch her. I really want to know what it’s thinking.”
Ruan Xingyao asked, “Aside from that, has Xiaoxiaosu shown any other unusual behavior?”
The girl said, “Yes! Ever since I came back from the hospital after giving birth, it hasn’t left my daughter’s side. If my daughter moved even a little, it would call for me; if she whimpered once, it would call for me again. At that time, I couldn’t get a good night’s sleep. Later, my husband wanted me to rest, so he moved my daughter into another room, and Xiaoxiaosu followed along. Now it’s become: as long as my daughter is asleep, Xiaoxiaosu won’t let me get close to her.”
Ruan Xingyao: “Alright, I understand. Now let me have a little chat with Xiaoxiaosu.”
“I’m So Awesome I Gave Birth to Someone”: seemed to first check how deeply her daughter was sleeping.
Then she took off her earphones, switched the sound to speaker mode, and turned the phone camera toward Xiaoxiaosu.
Ruan Xingyao: “Hello, Xiaoxiaosu, can we have a chat?”
Xiaoxiaosu had been lying beside “I’m So Awesome I Gave Birth to Someone”’s daughter, completely still.
Hearing the sudden unfamiliar voice startled it.
Its head shot up in an instant.
Its fur puffed up in alarm, yet its movements were unusually gentle.
It slowly stood up, slowly walked over to its owner, leaned its head closer to the phone camera, and let out a “meow.”
A very short meow—because it was afraid its voice would wake the baby.
Ruan Xingyao heard Xiaoxiaosu’s inner thoughts:
【Oh my gosh! Scared the whiskers off me! Good thing I kept it down—if I woke the little cub, I’d be done for!】
【But wait, who’s talking to me? Wants to chat? Chat about what?】
【Cat are busy! No time to chat with humans! Cat have to take care of the little cub!】
Ruan Xingyao could barely hold back her laughter at Xiaoxiaosu’s thoughts.
Suppressing her amusement, she said to the cat: “Xiaoxiaosu, your owner says you won’t let her touch the baby. Can you tell me why?”
Xiaoxiaosu: “Meow? Meow meow meow?”
【Huh? Really chatting with a cat?】
“Meow meow meow! Meow meow meow meow!”
【I’m not stopping Mom from touching the cub. I’m just helping Mom guard the cub while she sleeps, so Mom can rest properly!】
Ruan Xingyao relayed Xiaoxiaosu’s words to “I’m So Awesome I Gave Birth to Someone”.
In an instant, the girl’s eyes filled with tears.
She hugged Xiaoxiaosu tightly, rubbing her face against its big furry head.
“I knew it, my Xiaoxiaosu loves me the most.”
The livestream chat was also deeply touched by this warm scene.
【Waaah, why am I suddenly getting teary-eyed?】
【What kind of angelic little cat is this! Not jealous at all! Unlike my bratty cat—after I had a baby, it fought for attention nonstop. If I held the baby for an hour, I had to hold it for an hour too. Nearly wore me out!】
【This is so strange. Are cats really this empathetic? It’s even helping take care of the baby. That’s too adorable!】
Ruan Xingyao was curious too, so she asked Xiaoxiaosu: “Xiaoxiaosu, can you tell me why you want to help your owner take care of the baby?”
Xiaoxiaosu shook its head and didn’t immediately answer her question.
Its little eyes flickered with a guilty look, glancing here and there.
【Weird… how am I seeing guilt on a cat’s face?】
【Now I’m even more curious about what’s going on!】
The livestream comments were all filled with demands to know the reason.
Meanwhile, Ruan Xingyao had already heard everything loud and clear from Xiaoxiaosu’s inner voice.
Seeing her grin growing wider and her eyes curling up like crescent moons…
【What did Starry hear? Tell us quickly! We want to know too!】
