Chapter 49: The Counterattack of Madam Black Cat (7)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Xia Liang’s hair stood up, soo did her tail .
It was a cat’s subconscious reaction when it was startled . She had no control of it .
“Liang, don’t be afraid . It’s alright . I will protect you . ” Ji Yue stroked her hair and kissed on her little head .
Xia Liang felt a little hot in her ear, so she couldn’t help scratching it with her little paw . This man had a nice voice which made her ear kind of itchy .
“Come on . How can you have time to comfort a cat!” Nangong Ze rushed at the door and opened it . When he didn’t see Ji Yue behind him, he rolled his eyes at him . He couldn’t understand Ji Yue .
“Let’s go . There is no rush since she is already dead . ” Ji Yue stood up together with Xia Liang and said calmly .
…
It was Xiaomei .
A maid who showed some kind of affection to Ji Yue .
She fell down from the roof . The roof was only three-story high . She wouldn’t die immediately if she didn’t fall with her head down .
Unluckily, she fell down on a sticking-out steal iron rod in the backyard .
Her head was pierced through by the rod because of gravity and the rod poked out through her right eye .
Her face was ruined . There was blood and brains everywhere on the ground, looking pretty scary .
Servants screamed when they saw this . They even puked .
Xia Liang was not scared . But it was really not pleasant to look at . So she looked away once she had a quick look at it .
“Don’t walk around or get close to the body . Just wait here . Do you get it?” As Ji Yue needed to get a closer look at Xiaomei’s body, he had to put her on the ground and told her so .
“Meow!” I know .
Xia Liang wagged her little tail and nodded her cat head at Ji Yue like a good cat .
“My good girl . ” Ji Yue smiled and complimented Xia Liang before he walked toward Xiaomei’s body .
Xia Liang wagged her tail and listened to Ji Yue’s suggestion . She just took a short stroll around .
“Woof!” Liang, come over .
Suddenly, Xia Liang heard someone was calling her, not, it was dog actually .

Xia Liang turned around and saw a German Shepherd barking at her from a distance, wagging its tail quickly .
“Meow!” Are you calling me?
Xia Liang ran over and asked .
Was this dog a friend of the original cats’?
She traced back the original cat’s memory and found out they were actually good friends . The dog had a surprisingly cute name, Benben .
“Woof!” Liang, listen, I saw someone pushing Xiaomei off the roof .
Xia Liang was shocked and asked, “Meow!” What?! Benben, who did that? Tell me .
“Woof! Woof!” It was too high and far to recognize the face . I only saw a man in black .
“Meow!” Did you hear anything?
They preceded their conversation by meowing and woofing . Finally Xia Liang got to know a lot of gossip about this manor .

“The owner of the manor, Master Nangong, doesn’t like his wife . And he is a womanizer . He had flung with many maids…”
“Her late lady didn’t like the master either . She and the butler were intimate . I saw them snuggling once . I was so shocked . ”
“Miss Nangong used to a very cute and kind girl . She used to play with me and I liked her very much . She was my favorite person except for my owner . But now I can only hear her scream every day . ”
“…”
Benben’s owner was the eldest son of Nangong family . Since he went missing, Benben was so sad that he wanted to find him alone .
But he had been on a leash ever since . He couldn’t go anywhere but his dog house . He was so worried about him .
“Woof!” Liang, I don’t think my owner has left the manor . He must be somewhere here .
Because I have a good sense of smell . I traced all the way for my owner down last time . When I nearly found him, those bastards caught me and locked me up .
“Woof!” I hate them!
Benben barked loud this time to express his anger .
“Meow!” Are you sure? Your owner has been missing for a few days . If he is still in the manor, he should have been found .

“Woof!” I am not sure . The next day when my master went missing, I traced his smell to the horse ranch, I just didn’t fine him there/
Benben lied on the floor . He was very sad, wagging his tail listlessly .
“Meow . ” Don’t be sad . We will find him .
Xia Liang meant to pet him on the head with her little paw . But she was not tall and her paw was too short to touch him on his nose .
“Woof!” Liang, it’s very nice of you . It’s been a couple of days since you came last time . I understand that you are sad about your master’s death . My master was sad too because I saw him crying . He didn’t even walk me those days…
“Meow . ”
Xia Liang petted his nose with his little paw to comfort him .
“Meow . ” We should go check the horse ranch in the evening to see if we can find anything about your master . You once smelt him there, didn’t you?
“Woof . ” Great . Deal!
Benben jumped to his feet with joy and barked with excitement . But he lied down on his belly soon after he realized that he was still on a leash .
“Woof!” I am tied here . I can’t get out of here .
Xia Liang compared the giant iron chain with her little paw . She was worried too .
What should she do?
