"Lollipop? No," Xiaocha shook her head.
"Stock some at home in the future, but don’t let Xiao’ai eat them without my permission."
Xiaoguai eats without any restraint; it’d be bad if he spoiled his teeth.
"Okay." It turned out she was asking on behalf of Miss Wen, Moyan is really nice to Miss Wen.
"Oh right, Big Brother Hong Yi has a lot of snacks, he should have lollipops."
Upon hearing this, Jun Moyan immediately took out his phone and called Hong Yi.
The call was quickly connected.
"In the room, is there something you need, Moyan?" Thɪs chapter is updated by novelꜰire.net
"Do you have any candy?"
"...Candy?" Hong Yi blinked, pulling the phone away from his ear, and checked the caller ID again.
It was Moyan’s number, all right.
"Uh, Moyan, what did you just say? I didn’t quite catch that."
"Do you have any candy?" Jun Moyan repeated, his tone a bit more forceful.
"Give you one minute, bring it here." Jun Moyan said, then hung up and waited for him in the hall.
Confused, Hong Yi rummaged through his snack cabinet and took out an unopened packet of lollipops, and a bag of White Rabbit creamy candy. Looking at the two packets of candy in his hands, Hong Yi was conflicted:
"Is this what Moyan was talking about?"
"Should I call back and check?"
"Never mind, no time, just take it over for now." With no other choice, Hong Yi carried the two packets of candy and ran towards the main villa.
Running all the way to the villa entrance, Hong Yi still felt that he must have heard wrong, misunderstood something.
Seeing Jun Moyan waiting in the hall, Hong Yi felt uneasy and hid the two packets of candy behind his back.
"Is it really candy?" Hong Yi widened his eyes, still unsure if Jun Moyan was actually talking about candy.
"Are you talking about the sweet kind, the candy kind?"
"What’s with all the questions, just bring it out."
"...I’m not sure this is what you meant," Hong Yi said softly, nervously bringing out the two packets from behind his back.
Jun Moyan glanced at the packaging of the bag, then took the bag of lollipops, opened it, grabbed two sticks, and headed upstairs with a baby bottle in tow.
Hong Yi looked at the opened bag of lollipops in his hand, his face complex.
"What is this for, Moyan?"
He looked towards Xiaocha.
"Those are for Miss Wen," Xiaocha said with a smile.
Hong Yi felt instantly relieved.
"So they were for that little girl, I thought so! How could Moyan possibly want candy from me? I thought I heard wrong, I was too scared to even bring it out."
As he spoke, Hong Yi unwrapped a lollipop and popped it in his mouth, then asked Xiaocha, "Do you want one?"
"No thanks, I’m about to go to sleep."
"Alright then, good night." Hong Yi kept the packet of lollipops and went back with his White Rabbit creamy candy to sleep.
Just as he stepped out of the main door, he saw Hong Yi parking his car and returning.
"Hmm," Hong Yi responded, looking towards the villa and then asked, "What’s the deal with that little girl by Moyan’s side?"
"Oh, that’s Xiaoguai’s previous owner."
"Xiaoguai? Who’s that?"
"That’s the cat Moyan brought back from Holy City. A few days ago, the cat’s real owner came looking, and Moyan, well..." Hong Yi lowered his voice and said softly:
"...doesn’t spit out the bones after eating, not only raising the cat but also keeping the owner."
So she was the cat’s owner, no wonder she was practicing cat meows in the car earlier.
