Chapter 188: Asking Questions Like That, Are You Out of Your Mind
Chapter 188
The other students pretended not to hear and quietly continued with their own tasks.
Fu Huixing turned slightly to look directly into Shi Li's eyes. "Don't you already have three cats? Are you thinking of getting another one?"
"Oh no, I'm just curious. Where did everyone else see this information? I didn't see it anywhere."
Fu Huixing pulled out his phone from his backpack. "Considering you already have cats, I thought you wouldn't need this information, so I didn't send it to you. If you want, I can forward it to you now."
"Oh, I see."
Shi Li waved her hand dismissively. "No need. My three cat overlords at home are handful enough. I don't need to invite another master into the house."
The mother cat and kittens that Shi Li and Fu Huixing had rescued together were all taken home by Shi Li after the mother was spayed.
These three little cats were particularly mischievous, causing headaches even with a nanny to help care for them.
Despite their naughtiness, they also brought a lot of joy to Shi Li's home.
The other students in the classroom, overhearing the conversation between the two, finally felt they could breathe a sigh of relief.
Shi Li's comment also reminded the classmates that some information should be shared not only in small group chats but also in the larger class group chat.
They couldn't let Shi Li become suspicious again.
The class monitor was still distributing cats to students from other classes when one student asked, "Lin, do we need to return the pet carriers to you? How should we do that?"
The class monitor instinctively glanced towards Fu Huixing's direction, but saw that he seemed not to have heard the conversation and was still working on his exercise book, offering no response.

Left to his own devices, the monitor considered that Fu Huixing probably didn't need these pet carriers back, especially since each came with some pet supplies. So, he made a grand gesture and said, "No need, they're yours to keep. Just be good to these little unfortunates, and don't let them be abandoned again. If you really can't keep them, you can return them to us."
The students all promised they would treat the pets well and wouldn't return them, assuring him he needn't worry.
Shi Li leaned against the windowsill, watching the bustling scene of pet adoption at the doorway, feeling quite pleased.
But then another question occurred to her, "Where did the class monitor get so many cats from?"
Everyone: ! How can she keep asking such dangerous questions? Does she have a death wish?
Once again, all the students broke out in a cold sweat. Why did she have to have so many questions?
Because the top students in the class had chosen to sit around Shi Li, the students who came to school for summer classes were concentrated in the two rows near the windows.
The ten best-performing students in the class, considered the strongest brains of Class 1, Grade 1, were rapidly thinking about how to answer this question.
The classroom was extremely quiet, with only the sound of the air conditioner running and the noise of roughhousing from the corridor.
Suddenly, the crisp sound of a ballpoint pen clicking broke the silence in a small area. Fu Huixing calmly said, "They're stray cats picked up by the pet hospital. They said they had too many and couldn't afford to keep them all, so they asked if I could help find people to adopt them."
Oh, that seemed quite reasonable.
Shi Li knew that Fu Huixing had a good relationship with the pet hospital near the school. If it wasn't good, he wouldn't have known exactly how to take her there. The pet hospital was in an out-of-the-way location, clearly indicating he was a regular customer.
However, Shi Li felt a little bit of imbalance in her heart. She had been chatting well with the pet hospital's customer service on social media and thought she was also considered a familiar face to the pet hospital. Yet when they needed help, they only sought out Fu Huixing and didn't come to her.
Hmph.
Fu Huixing thought his answer was perfectly fine, but seeing Shi Li's face scrunched up, it was clear she was angry.
Shi Li's inner thoughts didn't reveal themselves, and not knowing why she was angry, Fu Huixing pursed his lips and stared at the problem, trying to figure out what had upset Shi Li.
The classmates really couldn't take Shi Li suddenly coming up with another question. They called the Class Teacher back in the small group chat, asking him to come quickly to explain some math problems. This would prevent further self-study time, stopping her from pondering and potentially discovering something else.
As for the students who hadn't yet received cats, the class monitor persuaded them to leave, hinting with his eyes for them to come back after school.
Receiving the summons from the students, the Class Teacher hurriedly rushed to the classroom with a stack of test papers.
Since there were still a few kittens in the classroom that hadn't been taken away by their new owners, occasional meows could be heard while the Class Teacher was explaining math problems.
The scene was quite comical.
If it were some other teachers, they might not tolerate such a situation in their classroom.
But the Class Teacher wasn't an ordinary person. He had a soft heart and couldn't bear to send the cats to the corridor, fearing they might get too hot if left there.
Then he remembered there was air conditioning in the corridor too, so the cats wouldn't get hot. But then he thought, what if there were cat abusers in the school? He couldn't put the little kitties in an environment where they might encounter danger.
Moreover, the cats making meowing and purring sounds was a kind of approval of his lecture, like applause.
After the lunch break, the last two pet carriers in the classroom were taken away, and there was no more meowing accompaniment in the classroom.
Except for self-study periods, Class 1 always had joint lessons with the neighboring experimental class.
The current schedule was even fuller than usual, with each lesson lasting longer. By the end of the day, everyone was a bit exhausted.
Wanting to get home quickly to write the day's homework, no one suggested going out for dinner together.
There really was quite a lot of after-school homework now, so they needed to hurry home to write it.
No one noticed that the Class Teacher deliberately waited until all the students had left before sneaking out of the office. His suit jacket, which was usually welded to his body, now covered a rectangular object.
Looking all mysterious, you couldn't guess what was under the suit jacket just by looking at the shape, but occasionally a whimpering sound could be heard from within.
Successfully getting into his car without being caught by his students, the Class Teacher placed the object on the passenger seat and lifted the suit jacket to reveal a large orange tabby cat.
He looked at the big orange cat with a satisfied smile.
Long live the meows!
