Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 3091: Chapter 3027: Acting on Impulse

He found it amusing and made a gesture for Jiang Xiao to proceed.

”Upstairs is Gao Wei’s room and a storeroom, nothing else. But if you insist on going up, I won’t stop you.”

That would make things easier. Jiang Xiao wasn’t avoiding suspicion at all, even searching for the cat in his son’s bedroom.

Jiang Xiao heard Snow Ball’s weak cries again. Her expression turned cold, and she stopped looking at Gao Ming, racing upstairs in a few strides.

”Snow Ball!”

She immediately noticed the ajar door and walked over, pushing it open with a slap.

This should be Gao Wei’s room.

The room had a distinctly masculine style.

Hadn’t Nian Mutong already married Gao Wei?

Why did it seem like there was no trace of her in this room?

Yet there was no one in the room.

She heard the sound of running water. Was there a bathroom in this room?

”Snow Ball? Snow Ball?” She stood at the door, calling out Snow Ball’s name, and the sound of water instantly stopped.

”Meow.”

This time, although the sound was still faint, Jiang Xiao heard it clearly—it was Snow Ball’s voice!

She immediately walked in, trying to push open the bathroom door, but it was locked from the inside, and she couldn’t push it open.

”Who is inside? Gao Wei? Nian Mutong?”

Jiang Xiao tapped on the door, ”Is my cat in there?”

There was a slight sound from inside, but she couldn’t tell what was happening.

”Gao Wei, Nian Mutong! Is my cat in there?”

Jiang Xiao tapped on the door again.

Gao Ming also came up; upon seeing her tapping on the bathroom door, he sneered coldly.

”Xiao Jiang, I think it’s impossible for your cat to be in my son’s bathroom, right? If you insist on barging in to find it, Xinian might not be too pleased if he finds out.”

Gao Wei should be in there at this time.

Gao Ming also knew Gao Wei often messed around outside, and when he came back in the evening, he would take a shower and change clothes first.

As for Nian Mutong, she had been leaving early and coming back late these days; she didn’t really enjoy staying at home anymore.

This was also Gao Ming’s tactic, to make her unable to stay here herself.

”I heard my cat’s cries.”

Jiang Xiao’s tone turned cold, speaking to the inside, ”You’d better return my cat to me immediately, otherwise, if I see anything happened to my cat here...”

”Xiao Jiang, are you threatening me in my house? Because of a cat?” Gao Ming’s tone also turned cold.

”I am not threatening. I am stating the facts. Also, that cat is a gift from Brother Xinian to me, so you can consider what might happen if anything befalls it. I won’t just let it go.”

Nian Mutong in the bathroom felt utterly helpless.

She looked at the white cat lying in a water basin, drenched and nearing exhaustion, feeling a chill in her limbs.

Previously, she acted impulsively.

She had actually returned to the compound but didn’t want to go back to the Gao Family due to her mother-in-law’s harsh criticisms and various tormenting methods, so she lingered outside.

Then she saw this white cat emerging from the grass.

She had lived in this compound for so long but had never seen a white cat, especially such a beautiful one. She remembered seeing Jiang Xiao with this white cat before.

So this cat should belong to Jiang Xiao.

These days, she was really being tortured by Madam Gao, but she couldn’t just let go of Gao Wei because she couldn’t find his father. Her shop wasn’t making much money either, so if she left the Gao Family, she didn’t know where else she could go.
