He Jingyuan always felt something was wrong recently.

As soon as I go to school, I feel like I've fallen into a surveillance network. I always feel like there are many pairs of eyes secretly staring at me in the dark.

On the way to the teaching building, a calico cat would slowly pass by him.

When you rest on the bench at the entrance of the cafeteria, a white cat will pretend to lick its fur.

Even outside the library, you can glimpse a tabby cat peeking out from the bushes.

After a while, cats of various colors seemed to have made an appointment, passing by him casually one after another, and then secretly looked at him.

He Jingyuan spent most of his time at school reviewing with Lin Qian.

Lin Qian was completely oblivious to this, even a bit smug. He said to He Jingyuan cheerfully, "Have you noticed? Why am I so popular with cats lately? I run into them everywhere I go. Tsk tsk, do I smell like catnip?"

He Jingyuan: ...

He silently glanced at another cat that was pretending to pass by but was actually staring at him with its bright eyes, and decided to remain silent.

I feel it, this is what it feels like to be in love with the cat boss, receiving attention anytime and anywhere.

The cats' overly deliberate encounter behavior was finally caught by Yunyun, who came to pick him up when He Jingyuan finished his first exam and walked out of the examination room.

The little orange cat watched a white cat swoosh past He Jingyuan, and a black cat poked its head out from the corner of the wall, and its brows immediately frowned.

That day, Yunyun took the sheriff to a place alone and gave him a serious lecture.

He Jingyuan didn't know the specific content, he only saw that when the cow cat came out, its ears were drooping and the whole cat looked listless.

The boss has spoken, and the sheriff dare not neglect it.

The next day, he gathered all the cats in the school, and held a secret meeting under the bicycle shed with Yunyun on his back.

The sheriff squatted on the car seat, his expression full of resentment.

The way to consolidate the status that he had finally thought of was imitated by all the cats. Now everyone wanted to get a piece of the pie, but Yunyun found out and cut it short.

It cleared its throat and tried to look serious. "Listen up, everyone! The boss has spoken. Don't keep approaching that human for no reason! He has an important exam coming up. You're disturbing him. The boss is getting mad."

However, after the last incident, the sheriff's prestige among the cats has been greatly reduced.

A large calico cat flicked its tail and asked suspiciously, "Are you trying to take all the credit for yourself and deliberately scare us?"

The sheriff twitched his ears awkwardly. "He's the boss's man. Why should we keep getting close to him? Our loyalty is still to the boss. What if the boss smells another cat on him? If he gets into trouble, won't we be in trouble too?"

Seeing that the other cats were still skeptical, the sheriff tried to persuade them earnestly, then used his ultimate weapon: "Think about it, if you get close to him and cause the boss to quarrel with him, and the boss gets upset, how can we still have a good life? Do you want Can Can anymore? Do you still want to eat Freeze-Dried?"

This statement finally hit the pain points of some cats.

A cat hesitated and said, "Okay, but..."

"So what should we call that human next time we see him? We can't just call him 'Sea Carp' again. That seems to be a nickname reserved for the boss."

The group of cats suddenly fell into deep thought.

"What should I call the boss's man?"

"Humans seem to call me husband."

"That's what the boss yelled!"

"That's called sister-in-law?"

"He's a male!"

The cats discussed for a long time but could not come to a conclusion. They felt like their brains were in a mess.

"Forget it." A fat orange cat interrupted the discussion that was making no progress with a headache. "I don't want to think about it anymore. I'm so tired of thinking about it. I should think about what to eat tonight."

After saying that, it jumped off the seat first and slipped away.

Seeing this, the other cats also dispersed one after another.

Watching the cats disperse, the sheriff squatted on the broken car seat and breathed a sigh of relief.

The abacus started fiddling again.

The boss strangled the approach of just going up to show off his presence. Only a stupid cat would do nothing.

Smart cat, of course you have to find another way!

Giving a small gift to show your presence should be... okay, right?

Didn’t the boss bring a small gift when he knocked on someone’s dormitory door before?

At most, it is... imitating the boss, yes, it is imitating.

Even if He Jingyuan doesn't like it, maybe the boss will like it.

Once the idea is decided, the highly proactive sheriff immediately begins to execute it.

It took it several days to find out the specific places that He Jingyuan and Yunyun often went to.

Now that final exams have begun for all majors, there are no seats available in the library, so they moved to an empty classroom to study.

The sheriff quickly caught a fat prey and trotted excitedly towards the empty classroom.

…

The empty classroom was very quiet.

Most of the important subjects in medical school have been taken, and the remaining subjects are relatively easy, so the review atmosphere is also much more relaxed.

He Jingyuan and Yunyun sat side by side with thick notebooks in front of them, while Lin Qian sat on the other side of them.

Yunyun also looked very decent, carrying a small schoolbag. This was the first time they appeared in front of Lin Qian together after they confirmed their relationship.

However, what the boy took out of his schoolbag was not a textbook, but a brand new elementary school copybook and a pencil.

He opened the copybook, looked extremely focused, and began to copy it stroke by stroke.

That's the word...

They are crooked and twisted, like little bugs crawling with difficulty in the grid.

Lin Qian leaned over to see what his senior was learning in the art department, but when he saw the childish handwriting, his expression became a little subtle.

Yunyun immediately became alert, and she lay down to cover the copybook, staring at him vigilantly.

"Uh...senior, are you practicing calligraphy?" Lin Qian said awkwardly.

Yunyun replied sullenly, "Yeah."

He Jingyuan naturally took over the conversation and tried to save face for his kitten: "Because he was afraid of disturbing us while we were reviewing, he found something to do and practiced calligraphy to calm his mind."

Lin Qian said "Oh" to show his understanding.

This character...really needs some practice.

During the review period, seeing that the winter vacation was approaching, Lin Qian opened up and talked about where he wanted to go for fun during the winter vacation, the latest developments of the Cat Association, and then the beautiful ragdoll cat from last time.

"The ragdoll cat was taken to the hospital for a checkup and found to have no major health problems, except for severe ear mites. Judging from its appearance, it must have cost at least 5,000 to 6,000 yuan, but they threw it away just because of ear mites."

He Jingyuan nodded perfunctorily: "It's really hard to understand."

Yunyun still remembered the cat. She bit the pencil and asked, "Where is it now?"

"He's been sent to foster care temporarily."

Lin Qian thought of something and picked up his phone: "I heard that after the exam, he will go home with his new owner. The new owner is also a member of the Cat Association."

He found the photo, pointed out the person, and handed the phone to Yunyun.

Yunyun took a look: ...

It turned out to be the girl who had seriously warned her not to feed the stray cats in the school.

It turned out to be her. No wonder I was so wary of him last time, like a thief.

Talking about cats, Lin Qian's thoughts began to wander again: "Alas... the holidays are almost over, and I miss my cat too... Forget it, I'd better stay home during the winter vacation to pet my cat and bask in the sun. After getting a cat, I really can't bear to leave."

He Jingyuan saw that he hadn't been talking about his cat every day before. Instead, he was so happy petting the cats at school that he had forgotten about his own cat...

He glanced at Lin Qian and ruthlessly exposed him: "You just don't want to take the exam."

"Who said that?" Lin Qian said stubbornly, "I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart. Look at you, you can still study without Yunyun... By the way, what are your plans for winter vacation?"

He suddenly thought that He Jingyuan might be spending the New Year alone, so he asked cautiously, "Will you spend the New Year together?"

He Jingyuan hesitated for a moment, he had to tell it sooner or later, so he might as well tell it now.

"Senior is at home. I... need to go to the United States and try to come back early to celebrate the New Year with him."

Yunyun looked up suddenly. Going to America?

Won't you take him with you?

The kitten's expression instantly became sullen, and he pursed his lips.

Lin Qian was stunned: "What are you going to do in America..."

Before he could finish his question, a very light sound of footsteps was heard from the door.

Yunyun looked up at the door sharply.

A black and white cow cat head poked in from the crack in the door.

Sheriff Maomao looked around furtively and found that Yunyun was looking at him. He immediately straightened his back, walked in with steady steps, and squatted upright in front of the three people.

Yunyun frowned and put down her pencil: "What are you doing here?"

The sheriff didn't say anything, but walked to Yunyun's feet and rubbed his trouser legs in a flattering manner.

Through this action, Yunyun quickly realized... the sheriff seemed to be holding something in his mouth?

After rubbing against the boss, the cow cat seemed to be completing some kind of ritual. It turned to He Jingyuan and Lin Qian and fell down carelessly...

When I looked up, I saw Yunyun hugging her arms and looking at it expressionlessly.

You'd better not move.

The sheriff was so frightened that his body turned to the other direction reflexively.

Instead of leaning towards He Jingyuan, he fell heavily on the instep of Lin Qian next to him with a "thump".

Lin Qian stopped crying and making a fuss, and no longer thought about his cat. He laughed happily, his teeth showing, and immediately squatted down and rubbed the cow cat hard.

"You're here to find me, right? I don't know what's wrong with me lately, but I'm pretty lucky with cats."

The sheriff was rubbed so hard that he felt dizzy. He struggled to get up and move towards He Jingyuan, but was pulled back by Lin Qian again.

"Sheriff, Sheriff, Sheriff, why are you so cute, Sheriff? You are the cutest cow cat I have ever seen. I really want to steal you home and raise you..."

"Hmm?" As he touched, Lin Qian felt his fingers touch something hard near the sheriff's mouth.

It seems to be... two long, thin hairs.

But it wasn't a sheriff's beard.

He reached out and pinched it curiously: "Sheriff, whose hair did you lick here?"

Yunyun's eyes widened, and she quickly stopped him: "Don't touch it!"

It's a pity it's too late.

Lin Qian's fingers had already pinched the ends of the two "hairs".

The touch feels a bit strange.

...It seems...it seems to be moving.

He subconsciously pulled it out—

A large, shiny cockroach was pulled out intact from the sheriff's mouth.

Lin Qian was silent for half a second, and suddenly there was a sharp explosion.

“Aa ...

Yunyun was so scared that she quickly hid behind He Jingyuan: "I told you not to touch..."

He Jingyuan: ...

He used Lin Qian's book to swat the cockroach away and stomped it to death: "I told you to trick Yunyun into disguising yourself as a cockroach. Now your little brother is here to seek revenge."
