Later, the freshly showered and dressed Iris and Jin Liwei ate breakfast together with Dom and the cats. The atmosphere was lively with the two chatterboxes Dom and Ketchup gossiping about random topics.
Popcorn was his usual energetic self, trotting here and there and stretching his agile body to aid the digestion of his breakfast. On the other hand, Ice Cream felt grumpy because everyone refused to give her more food. How dare they starve her?! Hmph! She was almost able to persuade her mommy by acting cute but her strict daddy ruined all of her efforts and scolded her because of some rubbish the evil vet said about her. Now her mommy was acting strict, too. Ice Cream wanted to throw a tantrum but she was scared that her daddy would get angry at her. Whatever. If they didn’t want to feed her, then so be it! She would just continue her beauty sleep.
Zzzzzz.... Snore... Snore....
Iris smiled at the sleeping Ice Cream, thinking that her eldest looked so adorable. Of course, her other cats, the energetic Popcorn and the talkative Ketchup were extremely cute, too. They were all so delightful. And most importantly, they were all hers...and Jin Liwei’s.
A dumpling held by a pair of chopsticks suddenly appeared in front of her lips. She looked at her darling.
"Eat. You have another long day today," Jin Liwei told her.
She nodded and smiled at him before opening her mouth and eating the dumpling he fed her. Then they took turns feeding each other.
"Boss, sir boss. Both of you are glowing today! Ehehehe," Dom commented after a pause in his conversation with Ketchup.
"Silly Uncle Dom. Mommy and Daddy are always glowing because of the power of their love! Meow~" Ketchup quipped.
Iris chuckled at the two chatterboxes while Jin Liwei shook his head, feeling a little helpless because his youngest kitten’s manner of speaking was becoming more and more similar to Dominic Chua.
"But I’m serious, boss, sir boss. The two of you are really glowing today. It makes you extra attractive than you already are. Ehehehe. What happened? Did you and sir boss have a good night’s sleep?"
"Not really. Liwei and I slept past midnight so we only had less than four hours of sleep. I don’t feel like I slept enough," Iris told Dom.
"Eh?! My gorgeous self is so envious! I also slept past midnight but look at me. I look like a drunk panda with my dark circles. And my eye bags! I could use them to store coins." Dom pretended to cry. "Boss, how could you and sir boss still look fresh, glowing and fabulous even with not enough sleep? It’s so unfair! Wait, did Alric develop a new nighttime beauty product?" fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
Iris shook her head.
"Then what’s the secret? Don’t tell me it’s DNA. I’ll be heartbroken!"
"Do you really want to know?" she asked.
Dom nodded eagerly. "Yes, boss! YES!!! Please tell me."
"Ketchup, cover your ears."
"Meow? Oh... Aye aye, Mommy!"
"Huh? Boss, why did you—"
