Chapter 213: Mr. Smith Wants to Help, But Is Rejected (2)
“Oh my God. So gorgeous!”
“Of course! Elizabeth is the champion of the International Pet Cat Competition for four consecutive
years! ” Seeing her beloved cat getting so much attention, David feels quite satisfied.
David wants Lily to hold Elizabeth. But when he tries to catch her, Elizabeth jumps up swiftly onto a
stand which is just several inches below the rooftop. She appears graceful and cold.
David scratches his head and says with resignation, “Forget it. Let’s go see her daughter.”
He takes Lily to see the little ragdoll inside the house.
Just weaned, the little ragdoll is as small as a palm and as white as a snowball. The hair on her ears is
somewhat gray. She is wobbling on the ground and is very clingy.
Watching the kitty rubbing against the back of her hand, Lily feels her heart melting. She wants to take
her home right now.
David asks, “Miss Lily, have you ever raised a cat before?”
“...Nope.”
David explains in detail how to raise a cat. He tells Lily what kind of cat food she should feed the cat
during different stages. Lily listens carefully and even takes out her phone to take notes.
“Woof! Woof!”
Suddenly a black dog dashes in from the yard, which gives Lily a great shock.
After checking the dog, Lily finds it is a black German shepherd dog that looks awe-inspiriting. Behind
him is a little, clumsy German shepherd dog which wobbles in.
Lily asks in surprise, “You have a German shepherd dog?”
“Yeah. He is Krist.” David calls the dog and complains as if he was angry that the dog didn’t live up to
his expectations, “He knows nothing but to eat. He also found himself a girlfriend when he was out
playing.”
The German shepherd dog is full of vigor and the yard can’t keep him in. So he always goes outside to
play. The rich girl across the street also has a German shepherd dog too. Two dogs like playing
together. Then the dog across the street got pregnant.
The rich girl was furious and came to David’s door to swear at him. David could only keep smiling and
compensate her with money. Eventually, the rich girl calmed down and tossed the little puppy at him
before leaving.
Lily laughs her heart out and she gloats, “I always thought German shepherd dog is very awe-inspiring.
But yours sounds like a husky. He went out and got another dog pregnant. He is good.”
David sighs, “Miss Lily, I have suffered enough. Will you stop laughing at me?”
“Okay.” Lily stops laughing and asks him, “What about this little one? Are you going to keep him?”
“I can’t. It takes too much energy.”
Seeing his eye look, Lily knows what he is up to. She rejects immediately, “No. The place I live doesn’t
have a yard. The landlord is not going to allow it. Besides, I don’t know how to raise a dog.”
“Alas. Poor thing.” David strokes the puppy, “I will find you an owner when my hand recovers.”
After some chatting, Lily plans to go home. But she feels embarrassed to take the kitty home without
giving David anything. So she wants to pay David, but David refuses to take the money.
“Miss Lily, if you pay me, then you despise me.” David says seriously, “I can see that you love cat.
That’s why I am giving the kitty to you.”
Lily thinks for seconds and says, “Then at least let me take you to lunch.”
David points at the hand in plaster and says, “I can’t go out to have lunch like this. I heard that Miss Lily
was a good cook. How about you cook me a meal instead?”
“Okay.”
Today is her day off. Besides, she needs to cook lunch after getting back. So she may as well do it
here.
When Lily enters the kitchen, doorbell goes off.
David rushes to the outside. He thinks it must be Louis. But when he opens the door and sees Louis,
still he pretends to be surprised, “President Smith, what are you doing here?”
“To bring you a document.”
“Okay, thanks boss.” David reaches to get the document and wants to close the door with his foot, but
he is then stopped by Louis.
David asks, “President Smith, anything else?”
Louis says in a casual way, “I am your boss. I have come so far to bring you this document. Aren’t you
going to pour a glass of water for me?”
“Because I think President Smith won’t enter my house.” David smiles and says, “Did you forget,
President Smith? You don’t like animals with long hair and I raise ragdoll.”
“What is ragdoll?”
“A kind of cat.”
The expression on Louis’s face subtly changes. Some dislike appears on his face.
Now he doesn’t want to get in.
“David, you don’t have many vegetables in your fridge.”
When Louis plans to leave, the sound of Lily comes from inside the house, which is getting closer and
closer to the door, “You don’t have enough condiments and oil, neither. How about we go out to buy
some?”
When Lily comes close, she sees Louis who is standing outside the house.
Their eyes meet. Lily’s heart twitches and she looks away immediately, “If you have important things to
talk about, I should go home now.”
“No, we are fine.” David says immediately, “President Smith brought a document to me and said he had
something to talk about with me. How about President Smith driving you to the supermarket? Me and
President Smith can talk about the thing on the way.”
Then he turns his head towards Louis and asks, “President Smith, is that okay?”
Louis nods.
Now Lily is in a dilemma. She doesn’t want to be around Louis, but she has promised David to cook a
meal for him. So finally she can only follow them out.
David uses his injured hand as an excuse and sits in the back quickly.
Lily sits on the front passenger seat.
David tells Louis the location of the nearest supermarket and then casually talks about work with him.
He is trying to pretend that they are talking about business seriously. And Louis goes along with his
performance.
There are not many people here. Wearing a suit, Louis with a pair of long legs is like a walking
hormone. Wherever he goes, he draws much attention. Some people even come up to ask if he is a
celebrity.
Lily snorts in her mind, “What’s the use of a good appearance? He is still mean and evil inside.”
Louis goes to get a trolley. Lily grabs the trolley from his hands and says coldly, “Let me do this. You
don’t have to bother. I think you only need to stand at the check-out counter. Maybe you will receive a
lot of money.”
Lily pushes the trolley and enters the supermarket with an angry face.
Louis first freezes at what she said and then smiles a little bit. His heart is lighter now.
He likes Lily in this way. She can smile and get angry. At least she stills wants to talk to him. It is the
cruel and cold Lily in Smith Mansion the other day that makes him sad.
David comes beside him and says, “President Smith, during all these years I work for you, I have never
seen a girl who had thrown her temper at you, and you even smiled after this. Do you know how weird
it is?”
Louis looks at him coldly.
David draws back his neck and continues, “I heard from several female colleagues that whatever a
woman wanted, you should just give it to her. Never lie to a woman, or you will be the one who suffers.”
“David.”
“What’s up, President Smith?”
Louis pats on his shoulder and looks at him with compassion, “You know so much about women that
you can be a kinder friend to a woman. How come you still don’t have a girlfriend?”
See. How tiring it is to work for such a boss!
“I am waiting for President Smith and the government to gift me one.” David says with resignation,
“President Smith, given such a great opportunity, why don’t you go have a word with Miss Lily?”
Seeing Louis making no response, David wants to try it himself, “Then...Shall I go?”
“Piss off.”
David leaves Louis’s line of sight soon.
Louis quickly finds Lily in fresh area. She is holding a net trying to catch a fish in the fish tank. Her
serious face makes Louis feel comfortable.
Louis walks to her and asks, “Do you need my help?” Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Lily turns to him.
Before she can answer, the woman wearing an apron waves her hand at Louis and says impatiently,
“Lad, with such a fancy suit, please stay away from here. Your suit looks expensive. What if you look
for our trouble when your suit gets dirty? You don’t look like a man who knows how to cook. Just let
your girlfriend do it.”
