Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids
Chapter 766 - 764: A Headache-Inducing Topic"Brother, Bun just licked a mouse."
Looking at Candy’s appearance, Mo Jingchun seriously suspected the next sentence would be, "Brother, let’s not keep this cat."
After waiting for quite a while, Candy didn’t say it.
Somewhat disappointed, Mo Jingchun spoke up:
"It’s perfectly natural for cats to eat mice. A cat’s talent is catching mice."
"It’s just that I didn’t expect, with nobody living here, this mouse is so plump."
Listening to her brother, Candy, holding Zero, sneaked a few glances.
It’s true, the mouse Bun caught was really chubby!
Having sneaked glances several times, she couldn’t help but sneak a few more.
Repeatedly, as Candy looked at the shivering mouse under Bun’s paw, it didn’t seem so terrifying anymore.
It even gave her a cute feeling.
After all, who can resist chubby little animals?
Just then, Bun meowed and, biting the mouse, jumped off the desk.
The sudden change gave Candy a start again, pulling Zero aside hurriedly.
Bun, like a triumphant general, held his head high and walked away.
Having waited on the desk for so long, he seemed to be waiting for Candy to return to the room to show off his prize!
Watching Bun run down the stairs, Candy leaned her head out and asked, "Brother, where is Bun going?"
"Probably to enjoy a feast."
Besides eating it, Mo Jingchun couldn’t think of a second outcome for the plump mouse.
As for the mouse running away, Mo Jingchun didn’t even consider it.
Joking aside, although Bun is a bit fat, anyone who’s raised an orange cat knows how capable they are.
However...
Mo Jingchun looked at Zero, and said seriously:
"Zero, tonight, don’t let Bun into Candy’s room no matter what!"
Zero made an OK gesture, "Boss, don’t worry. I wouldn’t let Bun in even if you didn’t say it."
When Mo Jingchun turned to look at Candy, Candy raised her right hand with determination and said:
"I promise not to let Bun in the room. Tomorrow, we must brush Bun’s teeth."
Mo Jingchun rolled his eyes, "Brushing teeth is your business, anyway, don’t ask me."
"It’s getting late, hurry and sleep."
Yawning, Mo Jingchun also turned and went back to his room.
Late at night, except for the patrolling Wild Wolf, everyone was asleep.
Even Little Grey was sleeping soundly around his newly acquired stainless steel bowl.
Occasionally, a tiny sound would make Little Grey’s ears twitch.
At three in the morning, Zero, guarding Candy’s room, suddenly opened his eyes.
Outside the door, Bun kept meowing non-stop, trying to nudge the door handle when no one opened. Unfortunately, Zero had locked the door from the inside.
Seeing Candy frown in her sleep, Zero got up and opened the door.
Just when Bun tried to slip in through the door crack and run into Candy’s bed, Zero lifted Bun by his neck with one hand.
Eye to eye, Bun quieted down.
The look said it all: one more sound could mean not seeing tomorrow’s sun.
Zero carried Bun downstairs, emotionless, and put him in the cat cage.
"Stop making noise, or I’ll punch you,"
After saying that, Zero walked away without looking back.
Not far away, Wild Wolf sat silently, not daring to make a sound.
Everyone knows not to mess with anyone in the boss’s family when they’re angry, not even Zero.
No one in the boss’s family is easy to provoke, nor can you afford to.
Under the light, only one person and one cat stared at each other.
After a while, resigned, Bun lay directly on the blanket and went to sleep.
It’s the same sleeping anywhere.
Before daylight, woken by the alarm, a yawning Mo Jingchun came downstairs to see Bun snoring in the cat cage.
Seeing Feiyan get up, Mo Jingchun pointed at Bun, a bit surprised, and asked:
"What’s going on here? Why is he in confinement?"
Feiyan shook her head cluelessly and said, "Boss, I don’t know either. When I took over from the captain, Bun was already snoring in the cage. I guess only the captain knows what happened."
At that moment, Zero’s voice sounded.
"Boss, I locked him up. He was causing a fuss in the middle of the night, and I was worried he’d wake Candy, so I caged him."
Mo Jingchun was temporarily at a loss for words.
Just then, Bun heard Zero’s voice, and his eyes shot open.
"Meow~"
"Serves you right."
After saying "serves you right," Mo Jingchun walked past the cat cage to brush his teeth and wash his face, leaving Bun thinking he was freed.
They lit the stove, and soon the room temperature began to rise.
Alone by the stove, Mo Jingchun waited for the New Year visitors.
Honestly, it stands to reason that with his parents no longer around, not many should be coming to his house for New Year visits.
After all, New Year visits are made to elders, not juniors.
But due to his influence, relatives visiting for the New Year grew in number every year.
A bit past seven, when Mo Jingchun saw Bun come over, he knew Candy was awake.
Other than Candy, no one else would let Bun out of the cage.
"Meow~"
"It’s no use currying favor with me. Look, my trouser hem is full of fur from your shedding."
At this moment, Candy walked in with messy hair, still with sleep in her eyes.
"Brother, Bun was very good. Yesterday was just an accident."
Hearing this, Mo Jingchun rolled his eyes and said:
"Ask Zero what Bun did to get locked in the cage last night."
...
After listening to Zero, Candy humphed softly and stopped paying attention to Bun, who was circling her, she turned and went to wash her face and brush her teeth.
The sound of firecrackers kept going as Mo Jingchun’s not-so-big stove filled with people.
There were elders, as well as cousins of the same generation as Mo Jingchun.
At first, everyone was chatting comfortably, but Mo Jingchun couldn’t remember which elder started the ball rolling, shifting the topic to the younger generation, making it unstoppable.
"Do you have a partner?"
In school, they were not allowed to date. After entering the workforce, parents keep asking, "Are you seeing anyone yet?" "When are you getting married?"
This is a common parent’s issues in China. Young people dread being asked this, especially when returning home for New Year, as all sorts of aunts and uncles start performing the "marriage rush" routine. Many jokingly share in their social circles, "Either on a date or on the way to one."
Mo Jingchun quietly listened, relieved this kind of topic didn’t include him.
Candy, on the other hand, showed great interest, happily munching on fruits as she listened.
Listening to the grown-ups chat, Candy found it very amusing.
When the topic shifted to "where do you work? How’s the income?" Mo Jingchun knew they were getting to the main point.
The groundwork had been laid out, just waiting to smoothly transition into this topic.
Listening to relatives engage in awkward conversations for a while, Mo Jingchun rubbed his temples and helplessly said:
"Why not interview? With your abilities, you earn the corresponding salary. Don’t make me support you because I won’t, no matter what the elders say."
