Chapter 260 - 260 253 Your Cat Has Given Birth to Kittens

?Chapter 260: Chapter 253 Your Cat Has Given Birth to Kittens Chapter 260: Chapter 253 Your Cat Has Given Birth to Kittens Zheng Tan arrived at the villa with the kitten as the rain started to come down harder. He was already somewhat drenched, but the kitten nestled in his arms remained mostly dry, faring better than Zheng Tan.

Before renting out the house, Mr. Jiao had installed a small ladder on the side, which couldn’t support a person’s weight—only that of a cat. The ladder was quite small but just perfect for a cat. At the time, Feng Baikin didn’t pay it much attention and even admired how well the Jiao family treated cats.

Normally, Zheng Tan didn’t really need to use the small ladder; he could simply find a place to climb up the wall to the attic, which was more convenient and gave him more freedom to go up however he wanted. Today, however, as he was holding a kitten, it wasn’t convenient to climb, so he used the ladder to get up.

Upon opening a window to the attic, Zheng Tan flipped inside, closed the window behind him, and kept out the rain and wind. He then turned on a lamp beside the window. Actually, he didn’t mind the dark environment of the attic and only turned on the lamp beside the window to signal the people downstairs that it was Zheng Tan moving about in the attic and not some thief.

Zheng Tan remembered that there were quite a few items left in a cupboard in the attic; the old lady hadn’t taken everything with her when she moved, things like towels.

The towels hadn’t been used for a long time but were clean. Zheng Tan found one and wrapped the kitten in it to keep it from getting cold. Although the temperature wasn’t low, the kitten was fragile and could easily get sick.

The attic had a clean wooden floor, so Zheng Tan laid out a few towels directly on it and set the kitten there. The kitten kept meowing, leaving Zheng Tan unsure whether it was hungry or trying to convey something else. Looking around, he noticed a small tiger plush toy on the single bed in the attic, which the old lady bought as a birthday present for a friend’s child but ended up swapping for something else. This toy tiger had been left there ever since, with no special meaning to the old lady who had moved out. Zheng Tan would sometimes use it as a pillow to sleep on when he came up here.

Zheng Tan brought the plush toy, nearly as big as himself, down beside the kitten. Perhaps cats naturally take to soft plush things easily; the kitten moved closer and even patted it with its paw.

With its attention diverted, the kitten stopped meowing so much, and Zheng Tan just sat there, wiping his feet with another towel. His feet had picked up a lot of mud on the way, leaving muddy footprints on the floor. However, the lady from downstairs would come up to clean tomorrow, and Mr. Jiao had once mentioned paying a monthly cleaning fee, but she had declined. The couple from downstairs already earned a salary from Feng Baikin’s parents that was way beyond some white-collar workers; they weren’t concerned about a little cleaning fee.

When renting out the house, Mr. Jiao had mentioned that Zheng Tan had spent quite a long time there, so he was very familiar with the place and could open cabinets and windows. This was to preempt any concerns Feng Baikin and the others might have had about Zheng Tan turning on lights or opening cabinets, so they wouldn’t be startled later on.
