Welcome to the Misogyny Game

Sometimes, love is just a spice in life; if it becomes life itself, all that's left is a mess.

—Game controversy

After the incident, Liu Chaoque and Mu Li returned to Hangzhou. Mu Li kept her promise and treated Liu Chaoque to a meal at Lou Wai Lou restaurant. Of course, his boastful behavior about West Lake Fish in Vinegar Sauce made the waiter chuckle.

The two returned to their home after being away for more than 20 days and looked at the ruins of the place, speechless with dismay.

An auntie passed by, glanced at the two of them, and recognized Liu Chaoque: "Isn't this Xiao Siman? What are you doing standing here?"

"Aunt Wang, isn't this my home? How did it end up like this?" Except for the door, which was still intact, the inside looked like it had been through a war, completely dilapidated.

Aunt Wang suddenly realized and said, "Yes, yes, you must have gone on vacation so you didn't know. Let me tell you, your house was attacked. The armed police surrounded us. I was so scared." She clutched her chest and gasped for breath, as if the thought of the scene made it hard to breathe.

"Auntie, do you remember what date this attack happened?" Liu Chaoque continued to ask.

"It happened around the 15th, which is about ten days ago."

The 15th was the day Sifeng went mad and Zhao Xiaomei was injured. In addition, Mo Yun's phone was unreachable at that time. And with all the things that happened afterward, they still haven't checked on Mo Yun's situation. So, where is Mo Yun?

"Auntie, have you seen a black cat come out from here?" Liu Chaoque hurriedly asked, and opened his phone's photo album to show Aunt Wang a picture of Mo Yun.

"Oh, this little guy? I didn't see him." Aunt Wang shook her head. "It was so chaotic at the time, no one would notice if a cat went missing. Anyway, you weren't home at the time, and no one was injured, so we just kept quiet about it, since it wouldn't have a good impact."

Aunt Wang was very secretive, and Liu Chaoque knew he wouldn't get any information out of her.

Where exactly did Mu Li go? Perhaps we could try looking around some alleyways.

"Boss, this is today's food ration. Please accept it." The black and white cat had a scar running through its eye, which should have given it a fierce appearance, but it was completely obsequious when facing a black cat that was thinner than itself.

The black cat, swishing its tail, lay lazily on the tallest and largest cardboard box and asked, "Has the resident of 405 made any move yet?"

"The brothers went there today, but they haven't seen any humans yet," Sang Biao said truthfully.

Mo Yun waved its paw to make it retreat. It tilted its head back, looking at the square sky, and licked its fur, which was covered in dust. No matter how much it groomed itself, some of the fur was still matted.

"Manman, you've been traveling for so long, why did it take you so long?"

Not knowing where Mo Yun had gone, Liu Chaoque looked at the stray cats nearby and came up with a good idea. She brought some dried meat and sausages to lure some of the greedy kittens over. After feeding each cat, she let them smell the small blanket that smelled of Mo Yun and promised that there would be more dried meat and dried fish after the matter was settled.

Because of her unreliable cat language translation function, she didn't know if the cats that had been fed would help her find Xiao Mo.

As it turned out, the cat she fed and the cats led by Mo Yun were mortal enemies. During their battle, the leader cat recognized Mo Yun's aura and mocked him for not returning home and running away from home. Now that his owner was asking them for help, he asked him if he wanted to go home.

Mo Yun's desire to fight diminished considerably. He only inquired about the appearance of the person who asked about the cat. After confirming that it was Liu Chaoque, he didn't even bother to fight anymore. He immediately stepped down and ran home on all fours. Sang Biao thus inexplicably regained his status as the boss.

"Manman, Manman!" Liu Chaoque bent down, and the cat boss turned back into a little cotton-padded jacket, lying in her arms and acting coquettishly.

"Your fur is all tangled, let me wash it for you." It's just that Manman's love is too heavy, and he wanted to say something like, "What the hell?"

The joy of finding what was lost turned into fragrant bubbles, and the cat boss turned back into a fragrant little kitten.

Xu Wangchuan is in a bit of a predicament. She reads dozens of messages every day and it would be impolite not to reply. When she was in Suzhou, she could use being busy as an excuse, but now that she's back in Hangzhou, it seems she needs to make plans soon.

Liu Chaoque had to consider several questions: 1. How to deal with it if her senior confessed his feelings? 2. What were her thoughts about her senior? Was it just a friendship, or a relationship that was more than friendship but less than romance? 3. Should she cut ties cleanly and decisively, or leave him with lingering feelings, giving him hope but unable to reciprocate?

What's a little funny is that her original house was also found by Xu Wangchuan. Now that her house has been destroyed, she has to find a new place to live. She can't go back to the dormitory, since she has a family to support now, and the dormitory supervisor probably won't let her bring her cat in, plus there's Mu Li, a grown woman, to take care of.

The attack on her home made her realize that there is no absolutely safe place in this world. If the plot requires it, she will be attacked no matter where she lives. So the only thing that can guarantee her safety is when she is there. Although she is always the one who gets hurt, as long as the conflict between the two sides in the game is not yet resolved, she is safe and her side is safe.

Of course, Mu Li and the others didn't say that, but Xiao Moyun deeply understood the bitter consequences of being home alone, and stayed even more closely with Liu Chaoque. Because she wasn't picky about the house, Mu Li bought a house in a school district that was close to the school.

Watching him wave his hand with such wealth that the entire building belonged to them, Liu Chaoque thought to himself, "Aren't you the little prince of refugees? How come you have so much start-up capital?"

Anyway, this guy said he was being chased, but it was just a few small fry following him. With that level of fighting ability, Liu Chaoque could easily take him to the police station.

Could it be that he's dissatisfied with his extravagant lifestyle and wants to experience hardship? Although she felt that apart from the limited housing conditions, his quality of life seemed unchanged, she didn't understand the quirks of the rich.

However, she had something more troubling. After much consideration, on the third day of moving, Liu Chaoque contacted Xu Wangchuan.
