Chapter 355 Is it sick?

When Zeng Guilin saw Jiang Yuan come downstairs, she quickly stood up to greet her, "Miss Yuan Yuan, you haven't rested yet."

"I'm going to rest now," Jiang Yuan said. "Just call me Yuan Yuan."

“Okay.” Zeng Guilin nodded in agreement.

Jiang Yuan then asked, "Why aren't you going to sleep so late?"

"I'm not sleepy." Zeng Guilin gave a simple smile. "I figured I wouldn't be able to sleep anyway, so I might as well get to work."

"Why can't you sleep?" Jiang Yuan said helplessly. "Just lie down on the bed, and you'll fall asleep eventually."

She took the rag from the other person's hand and said, "Go to sleep."

"It's dirty, Yuan Yuan, don't take it." Zeng Guilin quickly snatched the rag back.

Jiang Yuan took a deep breath and said seriously, "Xiao Zeng, I know you're hardworking, but this is rest time. You can't work, understand?"

"Understood." Zeng Guilin nodded vigorously. "Then I'll go to sleep after I wash the rag."

"Okay." Jiang Yuan then turned and walked upstairs.

Zeng Guilin lived in that vacant room on the first floor.

There was actually a small building in the courtyard, specifically for the servants to live in, but Jiang Yuan did not let her live there.

After washing the rags, Zeng Guilin returned to her room and looked around at the exquisitely decorated and luxurious house, still feeling like she was in a dream.

Yesterday she was crammed into a damp and dark hostel, and today she met a benefactor and is staying in such a luxurious house.

She lay on the soft mattress, rocking comfortably, and secretly vowed to herself that she would do her best so that she could stay and work there forever.

Although it was only her first day here, Zeng Guilin could tell that her employers were a good family.

The pavilion provided shade from the scorching sun, and a gentle breeze occasionally swept through.

Jiang Yuan took a nap in the rocking chair. When she opened her eyes, she saw Blueberry, Xixi, and Pudding squatting on the stone table watching her.

“Yuan Yuan, you’re finally awake,” Blueberry said.

"What's wrong?" She raised an eyebrow slightly and joked, "Do I look that good when I sleep?"

The three cats didn't answer her question; their fluffy little faces were surprisingly uniform, filled with seriousness and earnestness.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan's attitude also became more serious, and she sat up from the recliner. "What happened?"

“Hua Hua has been acting a little strange lately,” Pudding said.

Blueberry chimed in, "Ever since the kittens were adopted, Flower has been acting strangely."

"Yuanyuan, Huahua has been sleeping these past few days and hasn't been eating properly. Is it sick?" Xixi asked worriedly.

"Has she been sleeping the whole time?" Jiang Yuan frowned slightly, stood up and said, "Let's go see Hua Hua."

Hua Hua didn't sleep in her own cat bed; Jiang Yuan found her in the orange cat's cat bed.

It curled up in a ball, its back slightly arched, its tail tightly wrapped around its side, as if it felt very insecure.

"Hua Hua," Jiang Yuan called softly, crouching beside the cat's bed, "Are you sleeping?"

Hua Hua's tiny ears twitched, and she slowly moved her body, opening her eyes to look at her. Her cat voice was muffled as she called out, "Yuan Yuan."

Jiang Yuan reached out and stroked its back, her eyes filled with worry. "Are you very sleepy?"

"I don't know either." Hua Hua remained lying on the ground, looking weak and listless.

"Can I hug you?" Jiang Yuan asked.

Hua Hua nodded gently.

Jiang Yuan hugged it to her arms and asked in a gentle tone, "Hua Hua, are you in a bad mood?"

Hua Hua remained silent.

Jiang Yuan thought for a moment, then asked, "Do you miss the kittens?" Hua Hua sobbed softly, "Are they doing well?"

Jiang Yuan felt that Hua Hua was probably experiencing separation anxiety, since it had been with the orange cat, the raccoon dog, and the kittens when it was a stray.

Now that they're suddenly separated, it's not used to it, and it misses them.

"I'll contact their new owners," Jiang Yuan said gently. "How about we video chat?"

Upon hearing this, Hua Hua's dull and lifeless eyes instantly lit up. "Really?"

“Really.” Jiang Yuan patted its little head. “I’ll ask their new owner what time they’re free.”

"Okay." The fluffy little face was full of anticipation.

Jiang Yuan scratched it with her finger and laughed, "Then you should eat well and cheer up, okay?"

"I understand," Hua Hua nodded. "I'll cheer up."

"Good girl." Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "I'll go get you some canned fish now."

Hua Hua immediately declared, "I will definitely finish it!"

Jiang Yuan: "It's fine as long as you're full. It's okay if you can't finish it."

She opened a few cans of fish and let the kittens eat together, while she created a group chat on her phone.

She added Peanut, Feli, and Cola, who had adopted the kitten, to the group chat and sent a text message: "When is everyone free for a group video call? Hua Hua misses her friends."

Peanut replied instantly: 【I'm available anytime~】

He also recorded a ten-second video of a kitten playing with toys.

About five minutes later, Cola Alien replied: "I won't be free until after get off work tonight. I'm working like a slave right now."

Another half hour passed, and Felicity appeared: [Cowman +1, just finished a meeting, won't be home until 10 PM, is that okay?]

Jiang Yuan: [Okay, then let's have a group video call at 10 PM tonight, so as not to disturb everyone's work.]

She turned to Huahua and said, "You can video chat with them at 10 p.m.

"Great!" Hua Hua was very happy and ate with great relish.

Jiang Yuan smiled, feeling a mix of emotions.

Was it right or wrong to let the other three kittens be adopted?

Before 10 p.m., Jiang Yuan came to find Hua Hua.

The little guy had been waiting for her, and he was so excited when he saw her. "Yuan Yuan, can I see Big Orange and the others now?"

“Yes.” Jiang Yuan picked it up and sat down on the rocking chair under the pavilion. The other three kittens followed her.

Blueberries and the others also wanted to know if the kittens were doing well in their new environment and if they missed them.

Jiang Yuan invited Peanut, Feli, and Cola Star to have a video call in the group.

Peanut, who was always available, answered immediately and greeted her warmly: "Hi dear Yuan Yuan, good evening~"

Jiang Yuan: "Good evening, peanuts."

The next person to answer the video call was Felicity, who was still walking outside. "I just got off the subway. I was delayed a little on the way, but I'll be home soon."

Cola Alien joined the video call himself after the invitation timed out, saying, "Sorry, my phone was on silent, I couldn't hear you."

After saying that, he immediately flipped the camera and pointed it at the orange cat.

When Hua Hua saw her old friends, she meowed excitedly, "Little kitten, big raccoon, big orange cat, how have you been these past few days?"

"Great!" the little kitten exclaimed excitedly. "Huahua, I've changed my name to Xiao Ao now. Let me tell you, my new owner is so good to me. He hugs and kisses me every day and even buys me new toys!"
