nBest Actor Fu promised that his cat wouldn’t do anything to the fish.
nIn the end, he had to eat his own words.
nChief Editor Zhang’s anger was reasonable, given the fact that her beloved pets had been bullied.
nThe only issue was that the culprit was Best Actor Fu’s cat. The studio staff all looked at each other nervously, nobody brave enough to speak up.
nWang Youquan had just been chattering away happily with the set coordinator a few seconds ago, until he realized how cold the atmosphere had become. Trembling, he turned to look at Fu Sichen.
nWhat do we do now?
nHe told Fu Sichen already— this cat was a vixen! He told Fu Sichen not to keep the cat, but Best Actor Fu just kept spoiling him!
nEverything was over now. They could say good-bye to this contract. Best Actor Fu was going to lose yet another stream of income.
nWang Youquan quickly seized the opportunity to make a round of apologies to the staff. But before he could say anything, Fu Sichen spoke.
n“Pei Pei, come here.”
nHe was outrightly admitting that he was the owner of the Persian cat!
nPei Zhen nimbly jumped onto the coffee table, before taking another leap into Fu Sichen’s arms, crawling onto his shoulder, and then resting on his head.
nHis paws were still wet, so the moment he crawled onto Fu Sichen’s head, Fu Sichen’s carefully styled hair was messed up.
nThe studio staff were all stunned.
n“Get down.” Best Actor Fu clicked his tongue lightly; there was no change in his expression. But, his tone carried a measure of fondness. “Good boy.”
nPei Zhen snorted disdainfully, but didn’t refuse Fu Sichen’s order. He awkwardly jumped from Fu Sichen’s head to his shoulder.
nChief Editor Zhang stared wide-eyed at Fu Sichen, “Best Actor Fu, is this your cat?”
nFu Sichen couldn’t resist rubbing the cat’s head before retorting, “You’re scaring my cat.”
nExcuse me? Wasn’t his cat was the one who was bullying her fishies?
nChief Editor Zhang was stunned. After she recovered, she felt herself getting more and more angry. She even wanted to curse a few times. Wang Youquan was horrified. He walked up to Fu Sichen and tugged at his sleeves, “Fu Sichen, are you out of your mind?! How can you talk like this to the Chief Editor?! Hurry up and apologize.”
n“Why do I need to apologize?” Fu Sichen moved his gaze from Chief Editor Zhang to the fish tank behind her. “Haven’t you realized that the fish are a lot livelier now? Chief Editor Zhang, this is all because of Pei Pei.”
nWhat the f*ck is this man talking about.
nThe only person in the world who could pull off bullsh*t like this was Fu Sichen.
nHowever, the people in the studio felt like he might actually be telling the truth— the fish looked a lot healthier now.
nThey were swimming around the tank.
nThey were even eating fish food.
n“Oh no!” Before anyone could say anything, the assistant standing behind Chief Editor Zhang exclaimed, “I forgot to aerate the water!”
nAnyone that’s ever owned goldfish knows how important it is to constantly aerate the water.
nThis is especially true in the summer; goldfish need an extra boost of oxygen during this time, so an aerated tank can determine whether or not a fish lives or dies.
nThese goldfish were quite lazy normally, so they never really swam around a lot. However, when the oxygen level in the tank started to drop, they started to have difficulty breathing. That was why they lost their appetite and acted lethargic.
n“There’s a fine line between life and death.” After Fu Sichen knew the details of the situation, he started praising his Persian cat even more. “If it weren’t for Pei Pei, Chief Editor Zhang’s fish would probably be dead by now.”
nPei Zhen was left aghast at how shameless Fu Sichen could be. Living like this was worse than death!
nEven though Chief Editor Zhang was happy that her goldfish were safe and sound, the situation was still rather embarrassing.
nChief Editor Zhang glared at her careless assistant. However, she was both a gracious and flexible person. She didn’t really have a problem with a bit of give-and-take, “Best Actor Fu, I owe you an apology. Your cat really is smart!”
nFu Sichen’s lips curled upwards into a slight smile.
n“Oh, actually, this cat is quite handsome.” Chief Editor Zhang looked over Pei Zhen a few times; he was growing on her. “Best Actor Fu, why don’t we do a cover shoot with the both of you?”
n“What?” Wang Youquan couldn’t believe his ears, “You want the cat on the cover too?”
nChief Editor Zhang waved her hand in a show of generosity, “Yes. Please don’t act so formal and uptight with me. We do things a bit more casually around here.”
