At that moment, Ye Qiao also heard the cat meow. She carefully poked her face out and, sure enough, saw a slightly skinny, over-a-foot-long calico cat squatting on the ground, licking its little paws with a soft pink tongue.
Under the light, those big black eyes were curiously looking at Ye Qiao, clearly a bit wary of her, showing a touch of caution.
Oh, I thought it was something else; turns out it was just a cat!
Ye Qiao's face instantly turned a shade of fire, looking quite embarrassed, "Sorry, I didn't know it was a cat, I... I thought..."
"Sometimes it climbs up from the balcony. I've fed it a few times. I guess I forgot to close the window, that's why it came inside." Ji Mo turned his face gently, looked at Ye Qiao with concern, and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
Ye Qiao shook her head with embarrassment. Usually priding herself as a tough girl, but she was scared into jumping by a cat, which was really quite shameful.
