Transmigrated into a wealthy family's stepmother, I raised the villain into a sweet child.

Zhou Yanqian was unaware that he was being secretly criticized.

He looked at the kitten and asked, "It's so small, did it get lost? How did it end up in our house?"

How could it be such a perfect coincidence?

Jinxi took out her phone: "I'll send a message to the property management to ask if they're being fed in the community."

Zhou Yanqian said "Oh," thinking he could raise it.

Online sources say that a winner in life is someone with a big house, a big car, and both cats and dogs.

He now has two dogs, and if he had a cat, his life would be complete.

The property management responded quickly, saying it was a stray cat that had wandered in. Recently, quite a few stray cats have been coming in, and it's likely that a pregnant cat gave birth in some corner of the community.

Zhou Yanqian, sitting next to Jinxi, asked, "Mommy, did the property management say whose it is?"

"It's a stray kitten. The property management said they're coming to pick it up now," Jinxi said. "What's wrong? Want to keep it?"

Zhou Yanqian nodded: "Like Daju and Dali, it has no home. Let's take care of it, okay?"

Jinxi thought to herself that this time it was actually easier than when she adopted Daju and Dali. Back then, she had to subtly guide him a bit before he would shyly say it.

Now they're much more generous about what they want.

Jinxi said, "I don't care. Anyway, it's your cat, you can ask your dad."

Zhou Yanqian immediately went to see his elderly father again and started calling in his ear, "Dad~ Dad~".

Zhou Linxu wanted to cover his ears: "Keep your voice down, are you trying to call back a soul? If you can take good care of it, then raise it; if you can't, then it's not okay."

"I've taken such good care of both the orange cat and the lychee cat, this little kitten will definitely be fine too!" Zhou Yanqian patted his chest. "It's no big deal!"

After he finished speaking, he immediately went to look at Jinxi: "You should quickly send a message to the property management and tell them not to come. Let's take the kitten to the vet now, it's so thin."

Jinxi knew he was an impatient person: "Then go and get a cage with a large orange or a large lychee, and we'll deliver it to you now."

Zhou Yanqian happily went to get the cage.

The kitten is here!

Zhou Linxu pinched the kitten by the scruff of its neck and lifted it up.

The cat remained silent, perhaps sensing their lack of malice or simply out of fear.

Zhou Linxu commented: "It's bolder than the big orange and big lychee."

Jinxi stood up: "What's there to compare? Even if you follow your son, he could still be a rebellious son."

Zhou Linxu chuckled softly, "That's not wrong."

Just now, Zhou Linxu felt like his ears were about to go deaf from his yelling.

But he is still very pleased that Zan Zan has grown into a responsible child.

He remembered experts saying that it was good for children to have more contact with kittens and puppies.

Patience and a sense of responsibility will develop well, and more importantly, physical health will be excellent.

Moreover, Zan Zan has always liked puppies, otherwise there wouldn't be so many puppy toys in her room.

Zhou Linxu looked at Jin Xi and felt that it was so good to have her.

Otherwise, given how busy I am, I simply wouldn't be able to take care of everything properly!

Zhou Zanzan quickly returned with a basket. They put the kitten into the box. Great! This is what they call a zero-yuan purchase online!

Zhou Yanqian felt that he was the luckiest person in the world at that moment!

They took the kitten directly to the same vet where Daju and Dali had been before. After a general check-up, the kitten was found to be very healthy, just a little dirty and with some matted fur. A wash would clean it up.

The pet hospital gave it a thorough wash, and a cute little orange kitten landed in Zan Zan's palm.

This little orange kitten is only slightly larger than Zan Zan's two palms. It has just drunk milk, and its soft belly has become round and bulging, so it is pressed tightly against my palm.

Its round eyes stared at Zan Zan, and its two little ears twitched as it met Zan Zan's gaze.

It let out a soft meow, then lay down and closed its eyes.

Once you've eaten and drunk your fill, it's time to go to sleep!

Zhou Yanqian sighed, tilted his head, and turned to look at his father with some confusion: "It's asleep."

"Okay, Daddy, you can carry it." Zhou Linxu reached out and took the kitten into his palm.

Zhou Linxu's hands are exceptionally large; a kitten that takes two hands to hold can even barely roll over in his palms.

Zhou Linxu said, "It hasn't been vaccinated, so don't touch its face. Go wash your hands first."

Just as Zhou Yanqian was about to scratch his face, he heard his father's words and went to the sink next to him, squeezed out hand soap, and carefully washed his hands clean.

Jinxi also paid for the items and picked out some things for the kitten to buy as an emergency measure, and will buy the rest later.

After packing everything up, Jinxi looked at the sleeping kitten in Zhou Linxu's arms and said, "I'll drive back. You two sit in the back and watch the kitten."

Zhou Yanqian nodded. Anyway, there were three of them, so it was unlikely that he would be the one to drive.

He climbed into the back seat, and Zhou Linxu steadily carried the kitten into the car.

Zhou Yanqian stroked the kitten's head with his fingers; it was as soft and warm as a big orange cat or a big lychee cat.

Zhou Linxu said, "Just like when you were a child, you were also very small."

Zhou Yanqian thought to himself, "Who wasn't a child?"

Zhou Linxu gestured: "Maybe... only about the size of two and a half cats."

Zhou Yanqian looked at the kitten and then at himself.

Then I heard my father say, "Now you've become chubby and cute."

Zhou Yanqian: ...

If you really don't know what to say, you can stay silent.

Zhou Yanqian reasonably suspects that his father in his previous life didn't like to talk because he would make people angry to the point of jumping up and down whenever he opened his mouth.

However, considering that he helped hold the kitten, he couldn't be bothered to argue with this old man who only knew how to spout foul language!

Zhou Linxu had no idea that his own child had already forgiven him once. He asked, "Zanzan, have you thought of a name for it?"

Zhou Yanqian had already decided. He said, "Call her Pearl!"

Zhou Linxu nodded: "Sure, pearls, that sounds very luxurious."

Zhou Yanqian innocently replied, "It's the pearl from bubble tea."

Jinxi: "Hahahaha—"

She knew that the first thing that came to her mind when she heard the name "Pearl" was milk tea.

Hearing Zhou Linxu say that, I thought I was being petty, but it turns out he really meant pearls in bubble tea.

Hearing Jin Xi laugh, Zhou Linxu felt a little helpless: "This pearl sounds very nice too. You can name it whatever you want."

Zhou Yanqian stole several glances at his elderly father.

Oh my god.

Why does my father's mouth sound so sweet again? Is he possessed?

Forget it, whoever possessed him, let him stay on his father's body for now and not get off!

He loves to hear nice things!

Upon arriving home, Jinxi said, "Let's keep Pearl downstairs for now, and let her out to play after she's been familiar with the place for a few days."

Zhou Yanqian then presented the pearls again, saying, "Alright! I'll go down and set it up in a bit."

Having already gained experience once, Zhou Yanqian was very skilled at these things, and he could decorate a large house for Pearl by himself.

He carried the pearls downstairs, while Daju and Dali were already wagging their tails and circling around Zan Zan's feet.

Zhou Yanqian said, "You two, don't block my way. We're going down to get a new home for Pearl."

The orange and lychee trees no longer live downstairs. They have nests in the corner of the living room, the bedroom, and even the backyard, and they can move to several different places to sleep every day.

When the orange and lychee trees heard him speak, they obediently walked on either side of him and stopped blocking his way.

Zhou Yanqian was finally satisfied: "Good dog!"

His big orange and big lychee are the best-behaved little dogs!
