She asked, “Could it be that you’re Meatball?”

Upon hearing that name, the cat meowed at her as if it were replying to her.

Mu Xiaoxia laughed.

“Meatball! You scoundrel! Don’t take my Meatball. Hurry up and give it back to me!” A little boy rushed over to her, looking like he wanted to fight as he reached out to push her.

“Hey! Be careful, you brat. How can you be so rude?” Mu Xiaoxiao quickly dodged to the side.

Seeing that he couldn’t catch her, the little boy pointed at her and said, “Hurry up and give me back Meatball, you devil! Meatball is family. You can’t take it away!

Mu Xiaoxiao was unsure whether to laugh or cry. This little boy must have gotten influenced by animated films, huh?

Mu Xiaoxiao held the cat in one hand and pretended to be angry, looking at the little boy as she said, “You say that I’m a devil? Say that again, and I will take Meatball home and cook it! Yeah, I’ll have it braised!”

“Y-you… You’re too evil! How can you…” The little boy was so anxious that his eyes were watery.

Mu Xiaoxiao was only joking with him and she didn’t expect him to be so easily scared.

However, she forgot that children were very naive and would believe whatever she said.

Thus, she quickly added, “I was only joking with you. Meatball is so cute. Why would I eat it? Besides, I’m also a friend of Meatball. I saved her just now. Am I right, huh? Meatball?”

Mu Xiaoxiao shook the cat’s little head and smiled at it.

However, Meatball rolled its eyes at her, twisting about in her hand as if wanting to escape from her evil clutches.

Mu Xiaoxiao felt a little hurt and she handed the cat back to the little boy.

“Here you go,”she said dejectedly.

The little boy batted his watery eyes as though he couldn’t believe it. Looking at the cat in her hand, he quickly took the cat back into his arms.

“Meatball, Meatball…” He stroked the cat’s face.

The cat meowed at him. Using its face to stroke against his, they enjoyed each other’s presence.

“Hey,” she said to the little boy.

The little boy stepped back as if he were afraid that she would snatch the cat from him. He even held the cat behind him as he stared at her. “W-what?”

Her arms akimbo, Mu Xiaoxiao looked at him and lectured him, “Since you love your Meatball this much, then you should look after her well. Don’t let it run away, okay? What if it runs out and can’t find its way back home? It’ll have no choice but to wander around outside. In this weather, it’ll be cold and hungry. She’ll die outside. Who knows, she might even be caught by bad guys to be abused and tortured. Do you want to see that happen?”

The little boy shook his head and promised, “I… I’ll take good care of Meatball from now on…”

“Okay, that’s good. If you take it out for a walk, you should keep a leash on it so that it won’t run around, okay?” Mu Xiaoxiao said, looking at the cat sitting in the little boy’s arms.
