Chapter 193 - The Mafia King Is Jealous Of \'Lihua\'
Putting his hands in his coat\'s pockets, Mingshen casually walked up to the bed. His sharp gaze studied all the monitors and their readings in a glance. He then looked at Song Jia, who was softly breathing now.
He rested his hand on the pillow as a devilish smile curled his lips upwards. "Wow. I am impressed. Was that telepathy? Did you know that your sister was just outside?"
He was met with silence.
"Even in your unconscious state, it seems you recognized her presence. Quite interesting."
He lifted her hand and gently pressed his index finger on her wrist. He checked her pulse and other latest reports and smiled.
"A few more months my sweetie and then you will be like a ripe fruit ready for me to pluck."
He lifted her chin as his eyes glinted in a mischievous light. He whispered near her ear. "I cannot wait for that day. So hurry up and get all better to die once again."

The next morning, as the Old Madam made her way to the hall, she suddenly gasped in horror as a shadow jumped in front of her.
"Ahh!"
Hearing her startled voice, Ruomei immediately rushed to her side. "Old Madam, what is wrong?"
"T-this…" she pointed downward. "What is a cat doing here!?"
*Meow*
Lihua, the cat, lifted her head and sharply stared at the Old Madam. Ruomei widened her eyes. "Huh? How did this cat…"
"Lihua! I told you not to run away!"
Lihua came running and she found Lihua, the cat, she harrumphed and put her hands on her waist. "Naughty Lihua! I told you to stay put."
*Meow*
She purred and lazily looked at her. Lihua lifted her in her arms and giggled.
The Old Madam and Ruomei watched her stupefied. The Old Madam exclaimed. "Lixue! What is a cat doing here!? Throw this litter out of the villa!"
Lihua was startled. "How mean! What do you mean to throw it out? She is Lihua, Wei and my cat!"
"What cat? Wei doesn\'t have any cat!"
"Of course he does! Lihua was sick until now. Did you forget her so soon?" Her brows furrowed in distress.
Ruomei thoughtfully stared at the cat and then realization finally dawned upon her. "She is Mingshen\'s cat! What is she doing here?"
Lihua glared at her. "You too? She is not Mingshen\'s cat. She is Wei\'s cat. She was with Mingshen until now because she was sick. But now she is healthy so we brought her back. Isn\'t it right, Lihua?"
She tickled her under her neck.
"Are you an idiot? Wei never had a pet!"
"I had."
With his long sexy legs, Wei took quick strides towards Lihua. He narrowed his eyes at the cat and then glanced at the two. "She is my cat."
Ruomei was dumbfounded. "No, Wei. She is Mingshen\'s cat. I have seen her before in the Yang mansion. How did he let you take her?"
His expression didn\'t change. "She is my cat. Why will he refuse?"
Huh?
The Old Madam angrily glared at them. "I will not allow an animal to stay in this villa! We don\'t keep pets!"
Lihua whined. "What is wrong with keeping a pet? I will take all her responsibility. She won\'t trouble anyone. I promise. She is a really well-behaved cat. Right, Wei?"
His mouth twitched.
A well-behaved cat who slept between him and his wife last night on the bed. Somehow, he already started to resent bringing this cat here. He could never bear Lihua\'s attention to be diverted from him and ever since the cat came here, Lihua was only talking about her new furry friend.
But he was an extremely doting husband, so he couldn\'t reject his wife. "Yes."
He gave a cold stare at the Old Madam. "Lihua is our responsibility. Nobody will interfere with it. If you don\'t like her, we can always leave the villa and stay elsewhere."
They froze.
"You…" her gaze darkened.
*Meow*
Lihua, the cat had a pleased expression on her face.
Good, good human. If you had let this woman throw me out, I would have scratched both of your pretty faces with my sharp claws. How dare anybody throw me out?
She nudged her face on Lihua\'s chest. Her eyes sparkled. "You are so cute!"
The Old Madam was furious, though Ruomei on the contrary, really didn\'t mind the cat that much. Especially after she now knew she was Mingshen\'s cat. Of course, the cat was of top breed and quality and not some litter found on the street.
She was still curious how they got his cat. Mingshen had never allowed anybody to touch his cat much less take her away.
"I am telling you! If even once! If even once did this animal cause a nuisance in the villa, I will have the servants throw her out whether you like it or not!"
She stormed off in a rage. Ruomei quickly followed her too. "Old Madam…"
Lihua sighed. "How can anybody hate my cutie pie? She is just so adorable."
Wei pursed his lips. "And me?"
She blinked her eyes. Then she burst into laughter. "Oof! Why are you comparing yourself to Lihua?"
Lihua, the cat, narrowed her green eyes at him.
You mere human dare compare with this queen? Such insolence!
"Because you have only been paying attention to her since last night…" his pitiful voice trailed off in sadness. "I didn\'t like it that she slept between us too."
She felt an arrow strike right at the center of her heart. She tiptoed and pecked his lips. "Wei, why are you so adorable?"
He tilted his head. "I am?"
She nodded hard. "Very! You and Lihua are damn adorable. So much that my heart cannot take with your cuteness. Also, I am sorry. Hehe, I was really excited to meet Lihua. I promise I won\'t ignore you again."
"Promise?"
"En!"
Lihua the cat wagged her tail in arrogance.
Whatever. As long as you peasants serve me well.
In the living room, Wei and Lihua entered with human Lihua carrying the cat Lihua in her arms. Everybody was surprised to suddenly see a cat in the villa.
"Woah! A cat!" Jiang Fai was amazed. "When did it come here?"
