After hearing the story, her roommates had the same reaction as Wei Luyao. They all thought it was an incredible coincidence.

They were all envious of such luck.

"Let’s go, back to the dorm."

Now that the cat had been found, the group started walking back to their dormitory together.

"Wait, there’s no one in the cafeteria right now. If we go eat, all the good dishes will definitely still be there!"

Just then, Wei Luyao’s eyes lit up as she thought of something very important.

"That’s right! Everyone is out looking for the cat, so the cafeteria must be empty!"

Her roommates realized it too, and they all turned around and headed for the cafeteria together.

「At the 4S dealership.」

Chen Mo dialed the number from the lost cat poster.

"BEEP... BEEP... BEEP..."

"Hello?"

After a few rings, a man’s voice came from the other end.

"Hello, is this Mr. Tang?"

Chen Mo asked. The contact person listed on the lost cat poster was a Mr. Tang.

"This is he. Is this about the cat?"

The moment the man heard "Mr. Tang," he knew it was about the cat.

"Yes, the cat you’re looking for is with me."

Chen Mo didn’t beat around the bush and stated directly that he had the cat.

"Can you add me on WeChat? It’s this number. Please send me a photo."

"It’s just... so many people have called me recently, all claiming they found my cat, but none of them were right..."

Chen Mo could hear the anxiety and helplessness in the man’s voice.

He understood what the man meant.

’A lot of people are probably trying to pull a fast one for that one million yuan, using cats that look similar to Biscuit.’

’But how could they not realize the owner would recognize their own cat?’

’Is it really that easy to fool someone?’

"Okay, I’ll add you."

Understanding the man’s position, Chen Mo hung up.

He used the phone number to add him on WeChat.

"Take a look. Is this your cat?"

Chen Mo forwarded the photo he had just sent to Wei Luyao to Mr. Tang.

"That’s my cat!"

The moment he saw the photo, the man immediately confirmed that it was their Biscuit.

Although its white fur was a little dirty, it was still easily recognizable as Biscuit.

RING~

Chen Mo was just about to reply when the man called him immediately.

"Hello?"

Chen Mo smiled and answered the call.

"Sir, how should I address you?"

"My surname is Chen."

"Mr. Chen, where are you right now?"

"At the 4S dealership."

"Please send me your location. I’ll come find you right now."

"Alright."

After hanging up, Chen Mo sent his location to the man.

While waiting for him to arrive, Chen Mo petted the cat and watched the mechanic inspect his car.

"Mr. Chen, I’ve found the problem."

"The cat chewed through the ignition coil, which is why the car won’t start."

After a little while, the mechanic found the reason the car wouldn’t start.

Hearing this, Manager Zhou understood what the issue was.

"Mr. Chen, it’s a minor issue. The repair is very straightforward."

"We’ll cover the repair costs this time. If you need a car, you can use the Panamera from last time again."

Manager Zhou smiled at Chen Mo as he briefly explained the repair plan, the cost, and the issue of a loaner car.

Chen Mo had given them free advertising, so he was sure the company would be more than willing to repair his car for free.

"Someone else should be covering the repair costs."

Chen Mo smiled. The cat had damaged his car, so shouldn’t the cat’s owner pay for the repairs?

Although Manager Zhou had offered to do it for free, every debt has a debtor.

The one who caused the problem should be the one to fix it.

Hearing this, Manager Zhou was slightly taken aback. He glanced at the cat in Chen Mo’s arms and immediately understood what he meant.

"In that case, if you need a car, just ask Old Liu for the keys."

Manager Zhou didn’t press the matter of the cost any further.

"Alright, thanks."

Chen Mo nodded at him.

Afterwards, Manager Zhou took a call and left to attend to some business.

Chen Mo, meanwhile, went to sit in the dealership’s waiting lounge.

A little over ten minutes later, a couple in their thirties arrived at the 4S dealership with a pretty little girl.

They glanced around and immediately spotted Chen Mo sitting on the sofa, holding the cat.

"Biscuit!"

"Meow..."

The little girl saw the Ragdoll cat in Chen Mo’s arms and couldn’t help but cry out.

Hearing the voice, Chen Mo couldn’t help but turn to look.

At the same time, he felt the cat in his arms let out a meow.

The little girl ran over, her clear eyes red as if she had been crying for a long time.

The cat in his arms also jumped down and ran toward the little girl.

After hugging the cat, tears streamed ceaselessly down her face.

"Meow..."

The Ragdoll cat seemed to sense its little owner’s emotions and meowed in response.

"Xuanxuan, don’t cry. We found Biscuit."

The little girl’s mother hugged her and comforted her softly.

But the little girl didn’t say anything, simply stroking the cat’s head with her small, delicate hand.

The little girl’s father, meanwhile, approached Chen Mo with a look of immense gratitude.

"Mr. Chen, thank you so much for helping us find Biscuit!"

Mr. Tang gripped Chen Mo’s hand tightly, his voice filled with gratitude.

"It was just a coincidence."

Chen Mo glanced at the little girl. She seemed a bit... quiet.

Moreover, he could see the girl’s affection for the Ragdoll cat.

’This is probably why the family was willing to offer a one-million-yuan reward to find this cat.’

"My daughter has autism. She doesn’t like talking to people and isn’t interested in anything, except for Biscuit."

"When she’s with Biscuit, she becomes a little more lively and will say a few words. She even has to sleep with Biscuit in her arms."

"Last night, I took them for a walk downstairs in our complex, and a dog scared Biscuit, who ran off."

"My daughter didn’t sleep all night. She wouldn’t eat or drink, she just kept crying. Her grandparents were extremely worried too. We were at our wits’ end, so we had to post a reward to find the cat."

"Our family is financially well-off, so as long as we could find the cat, we were willing to spend a bit more money."

Mr. Tang seemed to notice Chen Mo’s gaze. With a helpless and somewhat bitter tone, he briefly explained the situation to him.

Hearing this, Chen Mo wasn’t surprised. He had already guessed it was something like this.

He just hadn’t expected the cat’s little owner to have this condition.

It just went to show that the family’s attachment to this cat was deeper than he had imagined.

The cat’s importance to this family, especially to the little girl, was also greater than he had thought.

However, when the man said his family was "financially well-off," Chen Mo gave him a strange look, not knowing what to say.

The Rolls-Royce parked at the entrance of the 4S dealership belonged to them.

They were also the ones who had offered a one-million-yuan reward for a cat.

And he called this being "financially well-off"?

"It’s good that the cat has been found."

Speechless, Chen Mo could only nod.

"How did you find Biscuit?"

Mr. Tang was a bit curious why Chen Mo would bring the cat to a 4S dealership.

"Last night, I was dropping a friend off at her university..."

Chen Mo briefly explained the situation to him.

"This..."

After hearing the story, Mr. Tang was also stunned, his eyes wide with astonishment.

He had never imagined it would end up like this.

He had considered that Chen Mo might be a student from Hua Zheng University across the street.

He had considered that he might be an employee of this 4S dealership who happened to live nearby.

He had considered all sorts of possibilities.

But he had never, ever considered this one.

Chen Mo dropped his friend off at university, parking his car across from the complex.

Then Biscuit crawled inside on its own and was taken home by Chen Mo?

It even chewed up Chen Mo’s car’s ignition system, which is how it was discovered in the car.

The car was towed to the 4S dealership, and they only found Biscuit after taking the car apart.

If Chen Mo hadn’t told him this himself, he would have suspected it was a made-up story.

"Mr. Chen, I am so sorry for the damage Biscuit caused to your car. Is your car being repaired at this dealership? I will cover the costs."

After his astonishment faded, Mr. Tang quickly came to his senses and sincerely apologized to Chen Mo.

He proactively offered to cover the repair costs.

"It’s alright. The cat doesn’t know any better."

Chen Mo waved his hand graciously.

Since the man had already offered to pay for the repairs, he certainly wasn’t going to hold a grudge against a cat.

"Mr. Chen, I assume you know about the reward money."

"Please send me your bank account number, and I’ll transfer the reward to you."

Mr. Tang was a straightforward man. He didn’t waste time with pleasantries and directly asked for Chen Mo’s bank account number.

Chen Mo wasn’t coy about it either and sent him the account number.

After receiving the number, Mr. Tang started making the transaction on his mobile banking app.

PING!

"Your debit card account ...1234 received an inbound transfer of 2,000,000.00 RMB on... New balance: 23,631,025.32 RMB."

Soon, Chen Mo received a text message from his bank.

However, when he saw the amount in the message, he was slightly stunned.

’Wasn’t the reward on the poster one million yuan?’

’Why did he send me two million?’

’Did his hand slip and he added an extra million?’
