The fruit opened its mouth, closed it again, and left quietly.

"Xiaoju, you also smell like dust. You are the most naughty one. It must be you who brought Xiaoque under the bed, right?" Li Mofu said as he patted Xiaoju's butt gently.

Little Orange meowed softly.

"You've been getting closer and closer to them recently." Lu Mingyun said coldly as he sat down next to Li Mofu.

"Damn it!" Li Mofu shuddered while holding the little orange cat. After being frightened, he felt embarrassed, so he said, "Why are you doing this again? Are you annoying?"

Lu Mingyun just likes Li Mofu's angry look, just like Li Mofu likes those kittens who whimper when he rubs them. He thinks they are very cute and wants to pet them when he sees them. He would feel guilty if he didn't.

But the domestic cat Li Mofu was very wild and refused to let Lu Mingyun hug or kiss him.

"No worries," Lu Mingyun smiled as he picked up the little orange cat from Li Mofu's arms and put it on the ground. Then he leaned closer and said, "Don't worry about these little things. They are notoriously heartless."

Li Mofu rolled his eyes and asked in confusion, "Why do they have no conscience?"

As he spoke, Li Mofu tried to catch the little orange cat. Unfortunately, the little orange cat, having just been put down and free, was unwilling to be caught by Li Mofu and ran away.

"Well, you're so nice to it, but it doesn't want you to hold it." Lu Mingyun said as he watched this scene, and muttered to himself in his heart: Just like you don't want me to hold you, you little heartless thing.

Li Mofu said angrily, "Damn! If it weren't for you, would it not let me hold it?"

Lu Mingyun shrugged. "If it wants you to hold it, it doesn't matter whether I'm there or not. If it runs away now, it means it doesn't want to be held by you. It's a heartless little thing."

Li Mofu felt that Lu Mingyun was too close to him, even his breath was close to his ears, which was a bit awkward.

"Come on," Li Mofu moved his butt away and looked at Lu Mingyun with disdain. "Cats don't like strangers getting close to them. You, a stranger, are so close to me, so naturally, it doesn't want me to hold you."

"Moreover, I keep them because I want to, because I hope. It's my personal subjective request. I care about them because they make me happy, and I treat them well voluntarily. It's not because I hope to get something from them, and I don't need them to do anything for me in the future."

"They are just a few kittens. When they are hungry, they ask for food. When they are full, they play with their companions. When they are tired, they sleep. Do you really expect them to repay you?"

“Don’t be so utilitarian in everything you do, and don’t expect to be rewarded for everything you do.”

Li Mofu snorted and laughed at this. "They have no conscience. If you approach them without any purpose, you will only feel sorry for not catching the cat, not that they have no conscience."

"You!" Li Mofu nudged Lu Mingyun's shoulder with his finger. "If your motives are impure, don't blame my cat for being heartless!"

Lu Mingyun felt guilty. He had just thought that Li Mofu was as heartless as the cat, and now he was pointing fingers at him and saying that his motives were impure. It was really an embarrassing feeling.

However, Lu Mingyun really didn't expect that Li Mofu could catch his little trick so quickly. He thought he had hidden it well.

"...Okay, okay," Lu Mingyun helplessly grabbed Li Mofu's hand that was pushing him away, "I was overthinking it, my motives were impure, I apologize."

Li Mofu pulled his hand out and raised his chin proudly. In fact, he was just unhappy that Lu Mingyun said his cat had no conscience. He never thought that Lu Mingyun was dissing him in his heart that he was as heartless as the cat.

Otherwise, Li Mofu would have scolded Lu Mingyun to the point of being bloody, and even dared to say that he had no conscience. He really deserved to be scolded because he hadn't been scolded for too long.

"Why did you come back so late today? It's almost time for me to go to bed." Li Mofu changed the subject and asked about Lu Mingyun.
