Holy Crap! My Cat is Actually a Female CEO?!
Chapter 68: Tracking? Tailing???Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Tracking? Tailing???
At this thought, a flash of pity flickered in Yan Luoxi’s eyes as she looked at Ye Mei, but she quickly hid it.
"Oh, it’s really nothing!"
"I just haven’t seen you in a while, Luoxi. I happened to be passing by the Group’s building today, so I came up to see you."
Ye Mei picked up the teacup on the table, took a small sip, and then spoke with a smile.
"Oh, I see. Thank you, Aunt Mei."
Yan Luoxi nodded and said softly.
"Luoxi, your Tidal Group has some serious momentum right now!"
"I heard you recently closed another successful investment?"
Ye Mei asked, seemingly offhandedly.
"Hm?"
Hearing this, Yan Luoxi couldn’t help but furrow her brow slightly.
’The news about Zhongtian Technology got out this fast?’
’Looks like someone at the company didn’t take my words seriously!’
Yan Luoxi thought to herself, but her expression remained neutral as she said, "It was fine. Just a normal investment."
"Come on, earning over a billion from a single investment... Luoxi, you’re being too modest!"
Ye Mei said.
Yan Luoxi just smiled faintly and didn’t say much.
Ye Mei knew this was just her personality, so she didn’t press the matter!
She thought for a moment before asking, "By the way, Luoxi, do you have a young man with the surname Gu working at your company?"
That’s right!
This old auntie Ye Mei hadn’t given up her scheme.
Back at the electronics market, she had seen Gu Yizhou’s work badge. Although she didn’t get a clear look, she had faintly made out the words "Tidal Group," which was why she had come here.
"Hm?"
Yan Luoxi was slightly taken aback by the question.
’Surname Gu?’
For some reason, the image of that guy, Gu Yizhou, suddenly flashed through her mind.
Thinking of this, Yan Luoxi asked coolly, "Surname Gu?"
"Yes!"
"I only know the young man’s surname is Gu and that he works for your company, but I don’t know his full name."
Ye Mei nodded.
"Oh."
Yan Luoxi nodded. "The Group is huge, and there are so many people in the company. With just a surname, I really wouldn’t know who you’re talking about."
"Er..."
Ye Mei paused for a second, then nodded. "You’re right. With so many people in the company, it would be hard to figure out!"
"Aunt Mei, is there a reason you’re looking for him?"
Yan Luoxi asked in a calm tone.
"Oh~"
"It’s nothing, really. I just thought the young man was quite easy on the eyes and wanted to get to know him."
"Hehehe..."
Ye Mei said evasively.
Hearing this, Yan Luoxi more or less understood.
And for some reason, she had a strong feeling that the young man with the surname Gu that Ye Mei was talking about was none other than that dog, Gu Yizhou.
Because she knew that Ye Mei had a thing for pretty boys.
And Gu Yizhou’s face fit her aesthetic perfectly!

「Afternoon, six o’clock sharp.」
Gu Yizhou left work right on time. He first rode his beat-up second-hand motorcycle to the electronics market.
His laptop screen had already been replaced, but he had been too busy all afternoon to find time to pick it up.
"Hello, I came in this morning to get my laptop screen repaired. I was told it’s been fixed?"
Inside the electronics market, Gu Yizhou spoke to the female shop assistant.
This was a different shop assistant from the one at noon.
"Oh, hello. You must be Mr. Gu, right?"
the female shop assistant asked.
"Yes!"
Gu Yizhou nodded.
"Mr. Gu, your computer is repaired. Please wait a moment, I’ll go get it for you."
the female shop assistant said.
After speaking, she turned and went behind the counter to get Gu Yizhou’s laptop.
A short while later.
The young lady returned, holding Gu Yizhou’s laptop.
After turning it on to test it on the spot and checking it over one more time to confirm there were no issues, Gu Yizhou signed to acknowledge receipt.
After paying, Gu Yizhou thanked the shop assistant, packed the laptop into his backpack, and left.
Figuring he’d be too lazy to order takeout later, Gu Yizhou went to the same restaurant where he’d had lunch and got some food to-go, planning to eat it back at home.
’Hmm... it’s mainly because the food at this restaurant is actually pretty good!’
...
「Meanwhile, as he waited for his takeout, back at the Binjiang No.1 Mansion District...」
Yan Luoxi had already returned to the residential complex.
What she didn’t know, however, was that a "little tail" had followed her back...
CLICK!
Yan Luoxi opened the door to apartment 306.
The moment she stepped inside, Yan Luoxi kicked off her small feet, and the pair of five-centimeter black high heels slipped off her delicate, fair feet.
She walked barefoot on the carpet over to the sofa and sat down.
"Haaaah..."
She leaned back slightly, letting out a comfortable sigh.
She had gotten used to this place by now. Every time she came back here, she felt completely relaxed. It was far more comfortable and liberating than returning to her own empty villa.
She glanced at her phone. It was already 6:50 in the evening.
Normally, she would have already turned into a cat by now, but today she didn’t want to transform so early, so she had made a special effort to control it.
Although she could only control it for about two hours, that was enough.
As for that dog of a man, Gu Yizhou, Yan Luoxi had just checked; he wasn’t back yet.
’He must still be working overtime at the company,’ she figured. ’After all, with the recent Zhongtian Technology matter, everyone in the finance department has been quite busy!’
Tossing her phone aside, Yan Luoxi got up, walked over to the wine cabinet, picked up the half-finished bottle of red wine from last time, pulled out the cork, and poured herself a glass.
...
"Hey, you... yes, you. I’m talking to you. What are you doing?"
At the entrance of the Binjiang No.1 Mansion District, the old security guard pointed at a woman wearing a sun hat and a pair of sunglasses and shouted.
He hadn’t intended to shout at first.
But the woman’s getup was too strange, and she kept peeking and glancing into the residential complex.
The old security guard couldn’t help but think of the two words "human trafficker."
So he yelled at her, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
The woman who was yelled at was clearly taken aback for a moment.
She turned to look at the old security guard, completely baffled. She pointed at herself and asked, "Uncle, are you talking to me?"
"Yes!"
"Who are you!"
The old security guard walked towards her, holding an electric baton with a wary expression!
"..."
Seeing the old security guard holding the electric baton as if he were fending off a thief, the woman knew he had misunderstood her.
"Uncle, please don’t be nervous. I’m a good person!"
"It’s a misunderstanding!"
she said hurriedly.
The old security guard: "..."
’What kind of good person dresses like that?’
The old guard stared at the fully-geared-up woman in front of him as if she were an idiot!
"Uh..."
Seeing the distrust in the old security guard’s eyes, the woman seemed to realize something!
She hurriedly took off her sunglasses and hat...
