    Chapter 17 Chapter 17 Gu Sichen hugged him hard…

    As night fell, Wu Xue began a daily night patrol, focusing on the bedrooms where people slept.

    At 11pm, he starts urging humans to go to bed.But humans procrastinate and stay up until almost 1 o’clock before going to bed.

    Looking at Gu Sichen’s back as he entered the bedroom, Wu Xue couldn’t help but sigh, wondering why his people were not obedient at all, which made the cat worried.What’s even worse is that when people go to bed, they don’t go to sleep immediately. They play with their mobile phones for a long time before finally closing their eyes and falling asleep.

    In the eyes of cats, humans are very strange creatures, sleeping as if they are dead and without any vigilance.Wu Xue is a responsible little kitten, so every night he will focus on checking the sleeping people.

    At 2 o’clock in the morning, he jumped on the bed and checked Gu Sichen’s vital signs. They were fine and still breathing.

    At 3 o’clock in the morning, Wu Xue came to check again. Well, he is not dead yet.

    At 4 o’clock in the morning, Wu Xue came over again. He realized that the person was frowning and murmuring, as if he was having a nightmare.Cats stick to each other and nightmares fly.The kitten rubbed its head against the person’s cheek, then turned and left.

    At 5 o’clock in the morning, Wu Xue found that the person had become very warm, and the kitten put its head against the person’s face and dozed comfortably.

    In another hour, people will get up and go to work.Mao Mao was tired after working all night, so Wu Xue closed her eyes and decided to sleep with him for the last hour.

    Gu Sichen is a very self-disciplined person. No matter how late he slept the night before, he would get up on time at 6 a.m. the next morning, exercise for an hour, then wash up and eat, read financial news at breakfast time, and reply to emails at night.

    But for some reason today, the sun is shining brightly on my buttocks, and people are still asleep in bed.

    “Meow.” Wu Xue stretched out her hand to pick off his head and called him out very responsibly.

    “People, wake up!”

    I feel so uncomfortable, I can’t breathe, I’m almost suffocating.Gu Sichen frowned in his sleep and felt like someone was covering his mouth and nose.

    Someone harmed him?Or is it a ghost?Gu Sichen swung his body vigorously, and finally opened his eyes after a few seconds.It turned out that the cat was sleeping on his chest and blocked his mouth and nose with its paws.

    Gu Sichen: “…”

    He put the cat aside by the scruff of Wuwu’s neck, lifted the quilt and got up.He is dizzy and his body is relatively heavy, but today there are acquisition negotiations for Zhiqiong Technology, and he needs to attend the signing part.

    It was already 8 o’clock in the morning, and he had skipped the exercise breakfast. After a simple wash, Gu Sichen asked the driver to take him directly to the company.Worried that Wu Wu would faint if he followed him out, Gu Sichen cruelly left Wu Wu at home.

    In the car, after Meng Zhi finished reporting his work, he noticed that Gu Sichen’s expression was not good and asked, “Are you feeling unwell?”

    Gu Sichen rubbed his forehead, closed his eyes and said, “I didn’t sleep well, Wu Wu always made trouble for me at night.”

    Before 9:30, the Zhiqiong Technology team arrived at the Gumao Group conference room. At 10 a.m., the acquisition negotiation meeting officially began.

    The early stage of the meeting went very smoothly, because the two parties had already reached an intention to acquire the company, and the inspection and due diligence had been completed. Today was mainly about going through the process, reviewing the data, and implementing the signing.

    During the signing and official seal signing process, someone leaned over and said something in Ruan Bowen’s ear, and Ruan Bowen suddenly became nervous.

    Gu Sichen took a cold medicine in the morning, but he was still not in good spirits. Fortunately, his subordinates were in charge and he did not need to be present in most aspects.

    Seeing Ruan Boyen’s expression was different, Gu Sichen said, “Mr. Ruan, what’s wrong?”

    Ruan Bowen said with a straight face and a pale face: “I’m really sorry, Mr. Gu, our finance department forgot to bring the seal. I’ve already had someone send it over. Please give me another half hour, and I promise to complete the signing on time.”

    Official seal?Gu Sichen glanced at his briefcase, his face darkened.

    Ruan Bowen thought he had made the big boss angry, so he lowered his head and apologized: “I should have checked carefully before departure. I’m sorry for wasting your time. We will make reasonable compensation!”

    Gu Sichen: “No need.”

    No need… Ruan Bowen’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Mr. Gu doesn’t want to cooperate anymore?Do you think their employees are unprofessional and their management is imperfect?He argued with reason: “Mr. Gu, otherwise you can think about it again…”

    Secretary Meng Zhi announced that the meeting was suspended, followed by a 30-minute tea break.He still wanted to follow him, but Gu Sichen had already brought people back to his office.Looking at Gu Sichen’s cold side face, Ruan Boyen’s heart sank heavily.

    Gu Sichen was in a bad mood because he suddenly realized that he also forgot to bring his official seal.This is something incredible. He has never been careless, and he doesn’t know what happened suddenly today.

    Gu Sichen asked the housekeeper to deliver the official seal to the company. Five minutes had passed, but the housekeeper still hadn’t found the official seal in the study.

    “And there’s one more thing…” the butler stopped after he finished speaking.

    Gu Sichen: “What?”

    The butler changed his words temporarily and said: “I will report to you when I am sure.”

    After hanging up the phone, the secretary came in again and said that Ruan Bowen was waiting outside the door and wanted to apologize to him.

    Looking at Ruan Bowen’s pale face, Gu Sichen comforted him: “Don’t be nervous, I forgot to bring my official seal.”

    Ruan Boyen raised his head in disbelief, then his nose became sore and he almost cried.Mr. Gu really… He actually didn’t hesitate to lie and use such excuses to comfort him in order to save his own face.

    After seeing off Ruan Bowen, Gu Sichen received news from the housekeeper: the official seal was not found, and Wuwu was also missing.

    “Why is Wuwu missing?” Gu Sichen frowned, “Have you searched for it at home? Have you looked at the places where it often stays? The closet, under the bed, behind the curtains, and above the bookshelf.”

    Butler: “I’ve looked for it, but it’s not there.”

    “Calling property surveillance immediately,” Gu Sichen quickly ordered, “Within five minutes, I want to know all traces of Wuwu.”

    Gu Sichen hung up the phone, his head started to hurt again.He took some painkillers and asked the security chief to immediately form a cat-finding team.

    As time passed, surveillance videos were sent to Gu Sichen’s phone one after another.

    At 10:32, the security door surveillance showed that Wuwu opened the door and left by himself, taking the elevator downstairs.It had a black object in its mouth that looked somewhat like a mouse.

    At 10:39, under surveillance in the unit lobby, Wu Wu carefully avoided the staff and then rushed out of the unit door.

    At 10:45, the gate of the community was monitored. Wuwu walked to the street with the black object in his mouth and disappeared from the surveillance sight of the community.

    “This is what we see so far,” the steward said. “I have sent people to search in the direction Wuwu left. I have also applied for municipal surveillance and it is expected to be available for inspection in 10 minutes.”

    Gu Sichen ordered: “Continue.”

    After hanging up the phone, Meng Zhi opened the door and came in and said that the official seal of Zhiqiong Technology had arrived.Gu Sichen put all his energy and resources into searching for Wu Wu. As for the official seal…

    He told Meng Zhi to postpone the signing of the contract, report the loss of the official seal, and then apply for a replacement.Meng Zhi responded one by one, turned around and left.

    “Ding ding ding——”

    Suddenly, a message popped up in the work group.

    [Ah ah ah, there is a new kitten in the company!]

    [Why are you so cute? You are not afraid of people at all. Come and give me a kiss, auntie]

    [What is it holding in its mouth?Black velvet bag?Is there something inside?]

    [It’s so cute, how come there is such a smart and cute kitten!Where?I want to come and watch!]

    Many people have taken similar videos. A cow cat is holding a black velvet bag in its mouth, walking through the lobby in a familiar way, and standing with employees waiting for the elevator.

    Gu Sichen kept a low profile in raising cats in the company. Only some employees in the president’s office had seen Wu Wu, and the rest of the employees didn’t know the cow cat, but that didn’t stop everyone from liking it.

    It’s so cute. A three-month-old kitten is at its cutest, not to mention that this cat can even wait for the elevator.

    Everyone took pictures of the cats one after another, and the brave ones began to consider tying the kittens home.

    “Ding——”

    The elevator ascended from the underground garage and was almost full. The kitten seemed to be wondering whether to go in or not.

    “Come on, come on, kitten please.”

    “I’ve left a spot for you, come in.”

    Everyone was chattering and got out of the way with a tacit understanding. Wu Xue nodded politely, bit the bag and entered the elevator.

    He sat on the ground and looked up at the numbers beside him.He hasn’t even changed his teeth and is still clearly the size of a kitten. He is squatting on the ground and is only as big as a shoe.

    Someone asked curiously: “Maomao, which floor are you going to?”

    The kitten didn’t answer. It let go of the thing in its mouth, jumped up and pressed a number.

    “Hey, can you still press the elevator button by yourself?” There was a burst of exclamation from all around.

    Someone captured this scene and shared the video to Moments and various work groups.

    “This floor is the president’s office. Maomao can’t go there. Even if you go, you will be kicked out. Why don’t you play somewhere else? Why don’t you go home with your sister?”

    “Your calculations are really loud.”

    The workers teased each other, but the kitten didn’t give any reaction. It bit the velvet bag and waited for the elevator to rise little by little.

    Although the kitten is cute, everyone is still more afraid of the big boss.No one dared to follow him to the president’s office, so they all left on their own floor.The elevator continued to rise, then finally stopped and the doors opened.

    Dozens of people in the president’s office all stopped working and stared at the scene in stunned silence. Some even secretly took videos with their mobile phones.

    There were so many pairs of eyes and cameras, but the kitten was not afraid of strangers at all, and walked out with a bag in its mouth.It walked all the way through the long corridor, puffing out its chest like a king, inspecting his subjects.

    At the end of the road was Gu Sichen’s tall figure.He looked at this scene in disbelief, with shock written all over his face.

    This corridor was really long, and the thing in his mouth was so heavy. It took him longer than he thought to get here, and he didn’t know if he would be late.

    Wu Xue quickened her pace and trotted towards Gu Sichen.

    He had only reached halfway when Gu Sichen strode over and hugged him forcefully.
