The CEO’s Pet Cat

Inside the bar.

Looking at the already drunk Mia, Wang Yuxin sighed once again and helplessly stopped her from continuing to pour wine, “It’s been so long since then, you still can’t let go. Before leaving, didn’t you think they would get married? Just announcing the news of getting married, and you’re like this, what a no-good!”

Needless to say, she knew that her best friend Mia’s current state was inseparable from the morning’s news announcement that Asher was getting married to Leena next month.

“Xin Xin, I just feel uncomfortable in my heart to drink, what can’t I let go?” Mia’s drunken eyes were hazy and she was already slurring her words a bit, “Besides, what does it have to do with me if they get married, I wouldn’t put it on my mind!”

“Fine, fine, you don’t take it to heart, don’t take it to heart alright?” Wang Yuxin hurriedly snatched the glass of wine out of her hand again, “If you really don’t take it to heart, then why did you risk being discovered by others to come to my place to drink? You said that five years have passed and you’re already a different person, so why do you want to go back to the past?”

Mia’s mouth hung in a sad smile, yeah, she was a different person now!

Leng Ning, a famous doctor and president of Shengshi Group, is cold and noble, unattainable.

No longer the orphanage-raised, once unseen pet of Asher’s side – Mia!

“But am I still me, now? What do I have now?” Gazing out of breath at the red wine in the goblet, Mia’s smile was very forlorn.

It was like she was being chased by something now, to get her footing in the company in the shortest possible time, and to lead the group in a better direction.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Wang Yuxin looked at Mia sympathetically and comforted her, “You should not keep thinking about unhappy things in the past, I think that Nangong Man beside you is very good, moreover, he is definitely interested in you, I can see it, why do you have to have a cold face all day?”

“Xin Xin, do you think that I have any capital to make others like me now?” Draining the wine in her glass, Mia’s face was filled with a bitter smile.

Wang Yuxin bristled and said helplessly, “Mia, it’s clearly you who never opens up your heart, but you have to put it all on others. A person who is not blind can see that Nangong asked likes you!”

Mia didn’t answer and started drinking again, glass after glass.

Maybe if you’re drunk, you won’t know anything, and you won’t experience the despair and pain inside.

“Mia, you should stop drinking, I’ll really ignore you if you keep drinking, look at your current appearance, to what?” Snatching the glass of wine from Mia’s hand, Wang Yuxin huffed and said.

It wasn’t that she didn’t know what Mia was feeling right now, but she just couldn’t understand why she just wouldn’t let go of herself!

“Xin Xin, don’t mind me, I’m not feeling well in my heart, I’ll be fine when I’m drunk …,” said Mia vaguely, intending to grab the glass of wine in Wang Yuxin’s hand.

She had just staggered to her feet when she felt her body sway and she fell violently under the seat.

“Mia …,” Wang Yuxin shrieked, but was too late to hold on, and could only watch as she fell towards her seat.

At that moment, a pair of large hands quickly reached out next to her and took Mia, who was about to fall to the ground, in her arms, and said softly, “Look at you, what are you doing drinking so much, it’s not good for your health.”

With a long body, handsome face, and gentle elegance, it was none other than the worried-looking Nangong who asked.

“It’s good that you’re here, she’s not happy in her heart right now, so persuade her and don’t let her drink.” After seeing Nangong ask, Wang Yuxin let out a long breath and went to greet the other guests.

Although Mia had been reluctant to admit it, she could tell that Nangong asked even more than Mia valued it more than his life.

Nangong asked and nodded at her with a smile, and half-carried, half-assisted Mia to sit in an inconspicuous corner, reaching out his big hand, tenderly tucking her hanging hair behind her ear, and said softly, “If I knew you were running out alone to drink, I would have followed you along. At least then you’d have someone to talk to, and you wouldn’t be so unhappy.”

“Oh, why is it that no matter where I am, you can always find me?” After struggling to clearly identify Nangong asked’s face, Mia’s absolutely beautiful little face wore a demented smile, “How strange …”

Nangong asked and poured her a cup of tea, placed it in her hand, looked at her with deep affection and said softly, “I have already said that no matter where you are, I will follow you and protect you.”

“But what’s the use of you finding me again, when I’ve lost myself?” Mia hiccuped, her voice falling.

Her eyes, which had been lost, seemed to gradually return to normal as well, staring blankly not far away.

“Don’t be like this, okay? You give me a chance, let me love and protect you properly, I will never let you suffer, you believe me!” Heartbreakingly looking at Mia’s demeanor in front of him, Nangong asked with a sincere and smitten tone.

For five years he had stood by Mia’s side, knowing that she had another man in mind, knowing that she couldn’t let go yet.

He waited with all his heart, waiting for her to give him her heart with confidence once she had healed her bruised and battered body.

He vowed that he would treat her well and would be good to her for the rest of his life.

But even so, Mia, though very close to him, shrinks herself into a tight ball like a hedgehog, and he can only ever move within what she considers to be a safe range. Once beyond that range, she extends all her spikes to protect herself.

“Protect me?” Mia dully twisted her head to look at him, her clear eyes full of confusion and bewilderment, “I’ve lost my heart, I’ve never been able to find it, how can I possibly give it to you? You help me, help me find it, I …”

Mia’s demeanor, all of a sudden, turned tense, just as he had seen her five years ago, nervous and helpless, grabbing him as if it were the last straw.

“Don’t be like this, don’t be like this, it’s my fault, I shouldn’t have pushed me, I shouldn’t have pushed you …” Seeing Mia’s bewildered and helpless look, Nangong asked with pain in his heart, hurriedly hugged her in his arms, softly comforted, “You Don’t worry, no matter what time it is, I will protect you well and not let you get hurt even a little, I swear …”

He took Mia gently in his arms, as if he was cradling the world’s most precious treasure, with an unusually gentle and contented demeanor.

Nangong asked the long and good-looking big hand, gently beat and patted Mia’s back, Mia gradually quieted down, and her demeanor gradually turned peaceful.

The two were snuggled together like a quietly beautiful picture, and no one could bear to disturb them.

Until, that is, the figure of a man appeared before them.

Nangong asked slowly raised his head, and when he saw the face in front of him, his lips curled into a sneer, “I thought it was someone, but it’s Master Jun! Isn’t Master Jun supposed to be preparing for the wedding right now, why would he come to a place like this?”

Standing in front of them, staring deeply at them, was none other than Asher.

Seeing that Nangong asked, Asher did not interfere, but only gazed at the face of the small woman in Nangong’s arms, she seemed to have just drunk wine, her beautiful little face was all red, a pair of big eyes half closed, confused and beautiful, curled up in Nangong’s arms like a small cat.

She didn’t seem to sense Asher’s arrival and just maintained a pose, nestled comfortably in Namgung’s arms.

“What brings you guys to this bar?” Asher finally asked in a deep voice after half a day of silence.

If he remembered well, this bar should be the place where Mia’s good friend – Wang Yuxin – worked. If she came to this place now, could it be …

Asher felt a heart beat violently as he thought about the possibilities of what was going on.

As long as she was here to find Wang Yuxin, there was no way she could deny being Mia anymore!

“That’s a strange question from Master Jun, this is a bar, anyone can come to this place, so why can’t we come?” Nangong asked without moving a muscle and retorted, “Or, does Master Jun think that we still need to report to Master Jun in advance when we come to this bar?”

Nangong asked in reply, dripping with water, while Asher’s eyes narrowed dangerously, “Then may I ask, do you know a female bartender here, named Wang Yuxin?”

“It’s also our first time in this place, so how would we know the bartender here, Master Jun, what exactly are you going to say, you might as well say it straight!” With a faint movement in his heart, Nangong asked and immediately denied it.

Whatever the psychology, he will never allow Mia to go back to the memories and days of the past again!

As soon as his words fell, he saw Wang Yuxin hurrying towards them, she didn’t even see Asher in the shadows, she just shouted, “Why aren’t you guys leaving yet? Don’t you hurry up and take her away, are you still going to let her drink here?”

Asher jerked his head up and looked fixedly at Wang Yuxin, a pair of dark eyes with a dark tide, a heart gradually hanging in midair.

Wang Yuxin’s tone was warm and intimate, could it be that she was willing to admit that she was Mia in front of so many people?

“Okay, thank you, we’ll go back, and thank you for taking care of her for me.” Nangong asked as he stood up with Mia half in his arms, gesturing slightly, speaking to Wang Yuxin in a cold and detached tone.

Wang Yuxin then noticed Asher standing next to her and immediately came to her senses, “I saw her drunk and saw that she looked like a friend of mine before I helped her. She has delayed a lot of my work, shouldn’t you show it?”

Asher stood with his arms wrapped around him, staring at everything in front of him, trying to pick up on the clues.
