When Du Qianze went to pick up the kitten and puppy, the three of them lived very comfortably at home. Mother Du doted on the three little animals very much, giving them almost everything they wanted. In just a few days, they were fattened up, especially Little Bandit.

While Fang Yi was away, it learned to be picky about food. It would not eat anything except carrots and vegetables, especially rabbit food. Mother Du gave it some rabbit food, but it quietly threw it away.

Although the three little animals lived very comfortably at the Du family, they all rushed over enthusiastically when they saw Du Qianze.

Du Qianze explained his future schedule and told Mother Du that he would take a few animals home. Mother Du was a little surprised and asked him if the company would still arrange work for him since he had already publicly stated on Weibo that he liked men.

Du Qianze appropriately exaggerated the company's attitude towards him, saying that this matter was a private matter. As long as he did his job well, others wouldn't care who you like.

While saying this, Du Qianze had been paying attention to Father Du not far away. Father Du had not responded to his words, but Du Qianze could still tell from Father Du's subtle movements that Father Du was a little excited when he talked about these topics.

Mother Du felt relieved when she heard Du Qianze say these things. She was a smart person and naturally knew that Du Qianze's words were meant for Father Du. Seeing that Father Du was still pretending to be serious, Mother Du secretly cursed Father Du in her heart for pretending, and then asked about the whereabouts of Little Bandit.

These days, the kitten and puppy were very attached to Father Du. When Father Du went out, the puppy followed him. When Father Du went out for a walk, the puppy always chased after him.

It had short legs and was fat, so it looked very cute when running, which attracted many people to look back and praise Father Du for raising dogs well. Although Father Du did not say it outright, Mother Du could see that he actually enjoyed taking the puppy out to play. Every day when he went out, he always dawdled and made sure to wait for the puppy to catch up with him before leaving.

Du Qianze honestly explained that these dogs are from Fang Yi's place. He originally planned to give them to Father Du and Mother Du to play with, but Father Du did not seem to like them very much, so he had to return Little Bandit to Fang Yi.

Mother Du listened to Du Qianze's words and cooperated very well, saying that it was really annoying to raise these animals, and asked Du Qianze to return them all.

During this period, Mother Du treated these little animals like her grandchildren and even said that it was annoying to raise them. Father Du knew that Mother Du said this on purpose and resisted the urge to turn around.

Seeing that Mother Du kept giving him a cold look, Du Qianze said that there was nothing he didn't understand. He followed Mother Du's words and said that these little animals were cute, but it was really troublesome to raise them. He told Little Bandit that it was time to go home, and then whispered to Little Bandit to say goodbye to Father Du.

Little Bandit had a high ability to comprehend. After listening to Du Qianze's words, it jumped to Father Du, lay on Father Du's legs, patted his legs gently, shook its ears at him, and tilted its heads to look at Father Du.

The little kitten could already climb onto Father Du's lap smoothly, squatting on Father Du's lap, looking at Father Du with eyes wide open. Father Du seemed to see reluctance and sadness in the little kitten's eyes. The little kitten liked to sleep. Although it had been very quiet, Father Du felt much more comfortable at home with them.

The little puppy was also biting Father Du's trouser leg. It was about to leave, and it was really reluctant to go. Fang Yi was strict about food and rarely gave it snacks. If it left, there would be no meat to eat.

Father Du was reluctant to see them like this. He suspected that Du Qianze had deliberately taught them to do this. Not knowing how to treat them well, he simply got up and went back to his room.

The little kitten stood at the door for a while, meowed a few times, and saw that Father Du refused to come out, so it pulled the little puppy and Little Bandit to the corner of the house. Not long after, it actually brought out a little mouse.

The kitten put the mouse in front of Father Du's door, meowed a few times, and followed Little Bandit away.

Mother Du was very reluctant to see that Du Qianze really took them away. She blamed Father Du for being too stubborn. She wondered if he would feel good if these little animals were really gone.

Mother Du personally sent Du Qianze home and gave him a lot of pickled vegetables she had made, saying that she had made them for him when she saw Du Qianze coming back these few days.

Seeing Mother Du like this, Du Qianze simply gave Mother Du the key to the room and asked her to come over often. If it was okay for her family to come, she could also live here. He paid a year's rent.

"Oh!" Mother Du sighed and said to Du Qianze, "Your father is a stubborn old man. I guess he regretted it recently. Didn't you notice that he didn't chase you away when you went home later? Take your time. I will talk to him more in the future. You can go home soon. There are rooms at home, but he forced you to rent a house here."

"Mom, it's okay, take your time, there's no rush." At this point, Du Qianze was no longer in a hurry. The progress he had made on this trip home had already exceeded his expectations. Moving forward, he would focus on his work and let Father Du see how the outside world truly viewed him.

As long as he could help Father Du overcome his inner struggle, Du Qianze estimated that it wouldn't take more than two years. After all, Father Du had once cherished him deeply—his harshness now was only because he had loved him so much.

"You must have suffered a lot over the years. Your brother showed me your Weibo. Is your boyfriend the pet shop owner who came with you? What kind of person is he? After you left, I also started to learn how to surf the internet. I heard that your circle is very chaotic. You must not look for people in the circle."

In order to read the news about Du Qianze, Mother Du specially asked Du Jiamo to install a computer for her. She learned the search function again and checked Du Qianze's news on the internet every day. Unfortunately, there was little news about Du Qianze. Most of the time, she only found old news.
