After Transmigrating into the Villain’s Cat, I Dominated the Entertainment Circle – Chapter 15

Protecting You

See him once, scratch him once.

“Miss Yan, President Luo asked me to inform you to be at her office tomorrow at ten in the morning.”

Yan Yafei’s eyes widened, and she tightened her grip on the glass cup in her hand. “Does President Luo want me for something specific?”

Zhao Min gave a faint smile. “Miss Yan should know the answer to that.”

She gave a slight bow and turned toward the main door. Yan Yafei’s gaze followed her, and, as expected, she saw Luo Ke holding the cat.

Lin Sifei noticed Yan Yafei’s line of sight and opened her mouth at her.

Luo Ke pinched her mouth shut. “Still opening your mouth? Haven’t you learned your lesson?”

Lin Sifei turned meek in a second, flopping onto her arm looking aggrieved.

The next morning, Yan Yafei showed up at the company with dark circles under her eyes. It was eight o’clock, the start of the workday, but she still had to wait another two hours.

It’s human nature to gossip, and since Yan Yafei was already the subject of much discussion, the news of yesterday’s events spread quickly, followed by a flurry of speculation.

Yan Yafei pressed her lips together, enduring the stares from those around her, her hand on the mouse clenched into a fist. She had been worried all night, afraid that she’d been found out for trying to feed the cat chocolate. Then again, she felt that Luo Ke wouldn’t have waited until the next day. But besides that incident, she couldn’t think of any other reason why Luo Ke would summon her.

She sat at her workstation, glancing at her watch from time to time. Only three minutes had passed, but it felt like three hours.

Yan Yafei took a deep breath. Maybe Luo Ke is just trying to bluff me. After all, I’m the only one in the company who’s had a clear conflict with that cat. As long as I deny it to the death…

With that thought, she felt a little more confident and lowered her head to send a message to Luo Shengping.

【Director Luo, did I do something wrong? President Luo wants to talk to me again o(╥﹏╥)o】

The message had just been sent when a reply came back almost instantly.
【Don’t worry, I’ll go ask for you in a bit.】

Her eyes lit up. 【Thank you, Director.】

【It’s nothing, don’t mention it.】

Luo Shengping looked at the message on his phone, a smile appearing on his face. He put his phone away and sat in his swivel chair for a while, his brow gradually furrowing.

That Luo Ke, she’s taking me less and less seriously now. She doesn’t even think about who raised her, or who kept the Luo Corporation from collapsing.

He snorted coldly and got up to find Luo Ke.

Arriving at the elevator and watching the numbers change, he suddenly felt anger rise in his heart.

Look at this, I, her uncle, have to go find her personally.

He stared at the numbers, but another scene appeared in his mind’s eye: Luo Ke, respectfully coming to greet him every day. If he needed something, it would be a simple matter of pressing a call button.

“Elevator arriving.”

The mechanical voice shattered his fantasy. Luo Shengping looked at the empty elevator, for a moment unable to distinguish between reality and imagination. But it was only for an instant. He readjusted his expression and stepped inside.

When he reached the president’s office, Zhao Min stood up to block him. “Director Luo, please wait a moment while I contact President Luo.”

The fire in Luo Shengping’s heart flared up again. “I’m her Second Uncle! How many times do I have to be announced to see her? Who does she think she is? The emperor?!”

After his outburst, he glared at Zhao Min, but she maintained her smile. The other secretaries next to her didn’t even lift their heads.

He grew even more resentful.

“Does Director Luo still wish to see the president?”

Luo Shengping’s chest heaved twice. “Yes.”

“Very well.” Zhao Min lowered her head and picked up the phone. “President Luo, Director Luo is here to see you.”

“Okay.” She nodded and hung up. “President Luo is available now. Please go in, Director Luo.”

Luo Shengping shot her another glare and pushed open the door to Luo Ke’s office.

He didn’t see Zhao Min roll her eyes dramatically the moment he turned his back.

When Luo Ke heard her second uncle had come again, she sighed internally. This Yan Yafei really has Second Uncle wrapped around her finger. She’s got some skill.

“Second Uncle.”

Luo Shengping smiled at her, but his expression darkened when his eyes fell on the cat lying by the desk, sunbathing.

“Ah, Xiao Ke, Second Uncle came today…”

“Is it about Yan Yafei again?” Luo Ke sighed. “Second Uncle, this is the third time you’ve come, all for her. The truth is, Yan Yafei isn’t as innocent as she appears on the surface. Yesterday, she tried to give Xiao Xiao chocolate, which can be fatal.”

“You listen to Second Uncle,” Luo Shengping cut her off directly. “You’re biased against her. She probably didn’t even know cats can’t eat it. Don’t be deceived by the people around you. I’ve long said that many of the people in this company ought to be replaced.”

Luo Ke didn’t want to argue with him about company matters; this second uncle of hers truly had no talent for business. “She deliberately wrapped the chocolate in shredded squid to trick the cat into eating it. I also had the chocolate tested. It was specifically a brand that contains theobromine. What else is there to say?”

“Why are you so disobedient?”

Luo Ke’s brow furrowed slightly. “I am firing her today, no matter what.”

Luo Shengping slammed his hand on the table and stood up, pointing at her nose as he roared, “Luo Ke, your wings have hardened¹ now! Are you doing this to fire Yan Yafei? You’re doing this just to oppose me! Your father betrayed me back then, and I didn’t hold it against him. I worked my fingers to the bone to raise you, and in the end, you’re just like your dad! You want to get rid of me too? Who the hell do you think you are.”

Luo Ke’s fingers clenched into a fist as she glared at him. “Second Uncle, I’m still calling you Second Uncle for now. Of all the people in the world, the Luo family is the last one with any right to say such a thing. You raised me, and I have not let you down. Don’t think you can use the favor of raising me as a threat. The Luo Corporation is my parents’ company, and everything I do will be for its benefit.”

“I have always chosen to open one eye and close one eye² to some of Second Uncle’s little moves, out of respect for our family ties. If Second Uncle destroys that layer of respect, then there will truly be nothing left for us to talk about.”

“You! You!” Luo Shengping’s hand trembled. “Fine, then we’ll walk and see³.”

He was panting with rage. His eyes landed on a cup on the desk, and he picked it up and threw it at the cat, who was watching him from the edge of the desk.

Lin Sifei watched the glass cup fly toward her. The cat’s agile body allowed her to leap up swiftly, landing lightly on the coffee table on the other side.

The glass cup smashed against the corner of the desk. Flying shards of glass scattered, and Luo Ke raised her arm to block them, feeling a sharp sting on her exposed wrist.

Lin Sifei caught sight of the bright red blood flowing from her wrist. With a “MRAOW!”, she shot her claws out, leaped up, and pounced on Luo Shengping.

Her hind claws hooked into his suit jacket while her front claws scrambled up, scratching at his face again and again.

This time, she showed no mercy. Every swipe of her sharp claws left four red marks. She used great force, and though the wounds looked small, they were quite deep. Soon, Luo Shengping’s face was a bloody mess.

“MRAOW!”

She was thrown off by Luo Shengping but, thanks to a cat’s balance, landed steadily on her feet. She snarled at him, ready to pounce again at any moment.

Luo Shengping let out a miserable shriek and pushed the door open to run away.

Lin Sifei opened her mouth and continued to yowl, cursing and threatening him.

The fur all over her body stood on end with fury. She didn’t notice the footsteps behind her until a hand picked her up, and only then did she close her mouth with a whimper.

She looked up at Luo Ke and rubbed her head against her neck. “Mrrow~”

Luo Ke stroked her head and smiled. “I’m okay.”

Lin Sifei looked at her bleeding wrist. Luo Ke followed her gaze. “It’s a small cut. I’ll just disinfect it in a bit.”

Only then did Lin Sifei relax. Then she thought of that fat pig Second Uncle. Next time I see him, I’m scratching him.

Just as she was thinking this, something soft suddenly touched her lips. She saw the enlarged human face before her, and her pupils couldn’t help but dilate.

After kissing her, Luo Ke rubbed her own cheek against her. “Our little Xiao Xiao is so brave. You even know how to protect me.”

Kiss, kiss, kiss! Lin Sifei’s brain rapidly overheated, successfully burning out and letting off a wisp of white smoke.
