DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 10
House in Prison
Han Qianye was dissatisfied with Li Xiwu’s obstruction. She turned around and said, “This cat is so ugly that I won’t reach out my hand.”
Li Xiwu pursed her lips and said nothing.
At this moment, Min Hanrong took the initiative to ask Li Xiwu, “You looked so serious just now. Can we really not touch it?”
Li Xiwu said truthfully, “Better not. Try to walk around it when you see it.”
“Is it that exaggerated?” Min Hanrong did not believe Li Xiwu’s words.
Tao Jing was skeptical. “I also think that this Dragon-Li cat doesn’t look like a native Dragon-Li cat. It’s a little strange.” Actually, it was ugly. Tao Jing was too embarrassed to say that directly.
“How much does it cost to raise this cat?” Han Qianye suddenly asked. She had a cat, too. She had kept Persian cats, ragdoll cats, and angora cats. They were all good-looking cats. This was the first time she had seen such a unique ‘ugly’ cat. For a moment, she was actually interested and wanted to raise it.
“This isn’t about money.” Li Xiwu was ready to explain that this wasn’t a cat.
Before she could speak, she heard Han Qianye ask, “If it’s not about money, then it’s about the procedures. Then if I want to raise this cat, what procedures do I need?”
Li Xiwu replied calmly, “You need to buy a house in prison first.”
Han Qianye: “…?” contemporary romance
Min Hanrong: “…?”
Tao Jing: “…?”
The comments were going crazy.
[It’s to the point! To the point! It’s really Mother-in-Law Joy!]
[The smile didn’t disappear. It just transferred from their faces to mine, hahahaha!]
[F*ck, I’m dying of laughter. Sister Li’s pertinent speech, buy a house in prison first!]
[But to be honest, most people have never seen a lynx before. It’s not surprising that they don’t recognize it.]
[Lynx: Hah! Tui! You’re the ugly one! Your whole family is ugly!]
[Lynx: Heh! Tui! You’re the Dragon-Li Cat. You’re all Dragon-Li Cats!]
[Lynx: I just came out for a walk, and these country bumpkins call me a cat? They even want to raise me? Handcuffs! Where’s the handcuffs! Imprison them!]
[If Li Xiwu hadn’t appeared just now, this show probably wouldn’t have been able to survive.]
Han Qianye glanced at Li Xiwu. “Are you joking or are you serious?”
Li Xiwu explained calmly, “It’s a lynx. It’s a level-two wild protected animal and is protected by the country’s laws. It’s illegal to raise it privately.”
Han Qianye’s face turned a little green. Min Hanrong, who was at the side, sighed in her heart. She thought to herself that it was fortunate that the person she wanted to raise it was not her. How embarrassing. That was a national level-two protected animal!
“Is this really lynx?!” Tao Jing’s reaction was the most vivid.
Li Xiwu nodded. “Yes.”
“But,” Tao Jing made a long gesture. “Aren’t lynx all this big?”
Li Xiwu said, “It’s still a cub.”
Tao Jing smiled in embarrassment. “No wonder it looks like a cat. It hasn’t grown up yet.” If they met an adult lynx today, there was a high chance that it would not be recognized as a cat.

Gao Yueban, who was sitting in front of the monitor, was holding his forehead and wiping his sweat. Recalling the scene of the live broadcast being connected to the monitor, he couldn’t help but sigh. “It was really thrilling.”
The junior assistant said, “Fortunately, Miss Li knows the lynx. Otherwise, something would have happened.”
Gao Yueban asked, “Didn’t we inform Group One and Group Four before the interview? There are many second-level protected animals in Fu Town. Why are they so ignorant? We almost lost the program.”
The junior assistant guessed, “Maybe it’s because it’s a lynx cub that looks like a Dragon-li, so no one thought that it was a second-level protected animal.”
Gao Yueban instructed, “Inform the cameramen to keep an eye out. Don’t let anything go wrong again. They almost gave me a heart attack.”
He was so close to losing the show.

This afternoon’s episode was still trending on Weibo at around five. The netizens directly took a screenshot of the scene in the live-stream and posted it on Weibo. When they posted it, they included the trending words #Mother-in-Law Joy. It is currently very popular.
The hottest topic on the trending page was #Lynx. The netizens who were confused and did not know what was going on clicked on this trending topic out of curiosity.
[Damn! When I saw that the lynx was trending, I was so scared that I thought it was going extinct. So I hurry up and click on it.]
[What’s going on? Mother-in-Law Joy is broadcasting it live? Can I send gifts?]
[I’m very busy at work during the day, so I don’t have time to watch the live broadcast. It’s better to watch it on Friday.]
[I saw this part and almost fainted from laughter. Hahahaha, buy a house in prison.]
[I’m curious. Min Hanrong is married to a rich man, and her daughter-in-law is also a knowledgeable artist. How can they not recognize that it’s a lynx? It could be seen at a glance, okay? I suspect that it’s a script prepared by the production team to deliberately support Li Xiwu.]
[I bet nine out of ten people wouldn’t recognize it! What do you mean, deliberate or not, how dark your mind has to be?]
[Li Xiwu is an artiste manager. She should be supporting Xie Wen! I heard that Xie Wen has plans to make a comeback.]
[When I see Xie Wen now, all I can think about is ‘what a pity’. She had such a bright future.]
Meanwhile, in Group Three’s live-stream. It was almost six in the evening.
In order to reflect the life of the mother and daughter-in-law, the production team had specially set up a kitchen in the hotel. Most five-star hotels would not respond to such a request, but when celebrities came to record the show, the hotel could still appear on television, which was equivalent to free publicity.
At this moment, Xie Wen was cooking dinner in the kitchen while being distracted by the babbling and crying coming from the bedroom. They had agreed in the morning that Xie Wen would be in charge of cooking, and her mother-in-law, Zheng Yuehua, would be in charge of taking care of the baby.
It was the same at night.
She was busy in the kitchen. In the bedroom, Shenshen, who Zheng Yuehua was taking care of, kept crying. She didn’t know what was going on, but now that the live broadcast camera was filming her cooking, she couldn’t leave easily.
Before the recording, Xie Wen had discussed with the director that her daughter would not appear on screen during the live broadcast. When she and her mother-in-law were with her daughter, it was also a long shot. At this moment, Zheng Yuehua was in the bedroom with her granddaughter. No cameraman went in, let alone anyone else. She did not know what was going on inside.
...
Xie Wen could not calm down and cook. She threw down the things she was busy with and washed her hands repeatedly in the sink. Then, she wiped the water stains on her apron and quickened her pace into the bedroom. The cameraman stopped at the door.
“Mom!” Xie Wen was filled with helplessness when she called out.
At this moment, her mother-in-law, Zheng Yuehua, was lying on the bed with her phone raised in one hand. The phone page was in video call mode. Zheng Yuehua was chatting with the person on the other end of the phone with a smile. She did not care about her granddaughter, who was lying beside her and crying non-stop.
