Chapter 502: It Has to Be You, and the Result Cannot be Changed
In the dining table, Qin Anguo and Qin Jingcen had almost finished eating.
At this moment, Qin Mei walked in with a snowball in his hand, which looked like trash.
He leaned against the doorframe of the dining room and casually threw the snowball on the ground. "Oh, you've had a delicious meal."
Compared to his previous timid behavior in the bedroom, Qin Mei's arrogant attitude was a world of difference.
The snowball landed firmly on the ground and gracefully walked towards the dining table, jumping onto a chair with natural elegance.
Sitting next to it was Qin Jingcen, and the snowball meowed at him.
Qin Jingcen raised an eyebrow and asked softly, "Do you want to eat?"
"Mew!" The snowball nodded in a surprisingly human-like manner.
Qin Jingcen instructed the servant to bring a plate.
A clean plate was placed in front of the snowball, and Qin Jingcen piled up some of the food from the table onto the plate.
Qin Anguo saw his eldest son putting onions in the cat's food and quickly spoke up, "Cats can't eat onions."
"Why?" Qin Jingcen turned the direction of the onion on his chopsticks and put it on his own plate.
Qin Anguo squinted his eyes and watched as the snowball ate the food from the plate in an elegant and clean manner.
He explained in a low voice, "Onions can destroy the red blood cells in a pet cat's bloodstream, leading to severe anemia and the excretion of red-colored urine. It can even cause the death of the pet cat."
Qin Jingcen looked surprised. "How do you know this so well?"
A reminiscing expression appeared on Qin Anguo's face. "Back when the Qin family hadn't reached its current state, your mother and I lived next to a family in a small neighborhood. Their children were fond of cats."
"Unfortunately, one day that cat accidentally ate onions and within a few hours, it experienced diarrhea and vomiting..."
He shook his head gently, choosing not to continue.
The outcome was self-evident.
Qin Jingcen nodded lightly and ate the onions from his plate.
With his other hand, he gently stroked Snowball, which was still eating, from head to tail.
His movements were gentle, like a gentleman.
Snowball was also obedient, not resisting at all. It even wagged its tail twice in response to Qin Jingcen's caress.
Qin Jingcen was pleased, smiling as he asked his father across from him, "Dad, what else can cats not eat? Do you know?"
Qin Anguo laughed. "You've asked the right person. Cats are delicate pets, and there are many things they cannot eat."
"Cats cannot eat sweets, onions, garlic, raw eggs, alcoholic foods, caffeine, high-salt foods, chili, Sichuan pepper, black pepper..."
Qin Mei leaned aside, coldly observing them, feeling ignored. They were discussing what the cat could and couldn't eat, but they didn't care if he had eaten!
At this moment, he felt an uncontrollable anger rising within him.
He wonders why the cat demon looks more like a biological child than him.
Seeing that they didn't intervene, Father and Elder Brother are about to find several wives for the cat demon.
Qin Mei murmurs, ''Dad, Brother, I got eaten by the cat demon upstairs. Can you still have an appetite?''
''You're fine,'' Qin Anguo glanced at him and casually said.
Qin Jingcen, still stroking the cat, spoke gently, ''Sit down and have your meal. If you don't eat soon, it will be all gone.''
'...' Qin Mei looked dazed.
His face turned pale, then green, then red. He was so angry that his lips trembled.
At this moment, the Second Young Master Qin didn't know how to respond. He had a father without love and a brother without brotherly affection.
To think that Qin Mei, the Second Young Master of the Qin family, had fallen to the point of competing with a cat demon for food.
"And what is this 'all gone' they mentioned?"
Even Snowball, in the midst of eating, stopped when it heard Qin Jingcen's reference to it.
It tilted its head and stared deeply into Qin Jingcen's eyes with its emerald green eyes.
Qin Jingcen smiled warmly at the cat demon Snowball and asked, ''Why aren't you eating?''
"Meow..." Snowball meowed back at him.
Unfortunately, Qin Jingcen couldn't understand cat language.
He looked to Qin Mei for help.
Under the seemingly seeking-help but actually authoritative gaze of his elder brother, Qin Mei reluctantly spoke up.
"It's not called 'all gone,' it's called Snowball."
The Qin Jingcen immediately smiled and affectionately touched Snowball's white fur.
He sincerely praised, ''Snowball, it's such a good name, it suits you well.''
Snowball, being praised, wagged its tail happily.
Qin Mei's face turned completely black.
He gritted his teeth and pointed at Snowball, demanding, ''Tell me, am I your son and younger brother, or is it?''
Qin Jingcen frowned, his eyes sharp as he looked at Qin Mei, his lips tightly pressed together.
Qin Mei faltered but defended himself in a resentful tone, ''That's how it is. None of you cared about whether I ate or had anything to eat. At this moment, you care about a cat demon. In this family, my position is even lower than that of a cat demon you just met less than an hour ago!''
The youngest son's eyes were filled with a sense of grievance, and even Qin Anguo couldn't sit still.
He said to the servant next to him, ''Bring the noodles from the kitchen.''
''Yes, sir.''
The servant quickly walked into the kitchen and brought out a bowl of noodles.
She carefully placed the noodles on the table, then turned to face Qin Mei.
''Second Young Master, this is a bowl of noodles specially prepared for you by the master and the eldest young master. After finishing this bowl, may you have a smooth and trouble-free future.''
Qin Meiyu lowered his eyes, the steaming bowl of noodles with its delightful aroma and appearance came into view.
The bowl of noodles was topped with his favorite green vegetables, fried egg, and meat.
The dining room was filled with an enticing fragrance, making one's mouth water involuntarily.
Qin Mei pursed his lips, unable to say a word.
He lowered his head and sat down at the dining table, picking up the chopsticks and silently eating his noodles.
"Pata!"
Water dropped into the soup in his bowl.
Qin Anguo and Qin Jingcen both noticed it and quickly averted their gaze.
Qin Mei had a strong personality, and he disliked showing weakness in front of others.
It was better for him to pretend he hadn't seen it.
Qin Jingcen suddenly spoke up, "Dad, I'm going to the company later. I'll ask the secretary to buy some household items for Snowball and have them delivered. You can take care of it."
"Okay, no problem," Qin Anguo nodded in agreement.
Qin Mei was unhappy, "I didn't say I wanted to keep it."
His voice was nasal, revealing a hint of hoarseness after choking back tears.
Qin Jingcen adjusted the wristwatch on his arm.
Without looking up, he said, "Little sister said this cat came to find you. It has to be you, and whether you keep it or not, it won't change the final outcome."
"Ruan Ruan knows?!"
The water shimmer in Qin Mei's eyes faded as quickly as lightning.
It was so fast that one might suspect his previous show of emotions was all an act.
Qin Jingcen nodded, "Yes, she knows. She even told me to let you keep Snowball. You're so foolish, next time you get manipulated, Snowball will protect you."
"Meow..."
Snowball made a sound, asserting its presence.
Qin Mei was dumbfounded, pointing at his own nose, "Me, being protected by a cat?"
Qin Jingcen picked up a nearby napkin and wiped his hands, saying, "How stupid can you be? Do I need to go through your dark past one by one?"
