Be My Cat Episode 14 Recap
> Be My Cat Recap
Mo Xiuran held Little Mint as she nearly fell, but quickly released her, stating that the East Court already had a maid and no longer needed her services. Undeterred, Little Mint declared her absolute intention to enter the Mo Mansion that day. Just then, Mo Yuji appeared and took Little Mint to the West Court. Seeing Little Mint's triumphant demeanor, Mo Xiuran clenched his teeth in frustration.
Once inside, Little Mint saw a kitten named Jin Bao and was surprised to learn its twin brother, Zhao Cai, was now with Mo Xiuran. Little Mint presented Mo Yuji with Qingshan Tea from Qingshan Lake, explaining that she had returned to Mo Mansion to reclaim what was hers, secretly vowing never to leave Mo Xiuran again. Later, Mo Xiuran visited Bu Ou at Meow's Fried Fish.
He told her he had followed her method to search for Shu Hu within the Mo Mansion but found no trace. Bu Ou expressed suspicion about Zi You's sudden reappearance after years of absence, suggesting it was too coincidental. For safety, she advised Mo Xiuran to verify Zi You’s identity. Taking Zhao Cai with him, Mo Xiuran went to see Zi You. Zhao Cai scratched Zi You's arm, leading Mo Xiuran to take her to the cattery to apply medicine.
While tending to Zi You, Mo Xiuran caught sight of a distinct mark on her arm, his expression momentarily freezing. Meanwhile, Little Mint, perched in a tree nearby and muttering in frustration while observing the two, accidentally fell. Upon hearing her cry, Mo Xiuran swiftly flew to catch Little Mint before she hit the ground. He sternly warned her to stay out of his sight, but Little Mint resolved to do the opposite.
Soon, preparations were underway for Mo Xiuran's celebration, as he was to be conferred as Marquis Jin Yang. Luo Feng was busy with arrangements when Nan Pingwan arrived from Sunset City. Luo Feng, concerned about Mo Xiuran’s current emotional state, suggested they should not flaunt their affection publicly but instead pursue an "underground relationship." This proposal displeased Nan Pingwan, who immediately sought out Little Mint to vent her frustrations. Little Mint recounted her story with Mo Xiuran to Nan Pingwan.
Nan Pingwan offered advice, suggesting Little Mint win Mo Xiuran back by catering to his preferences, thus snatching him away from Zi You. Little Mint then went to Meow's Fried Fish to personally prepare grilled fish for Mo Xiuran. To her dismay, Mo Xiuran arrived with Zi You. Unable to contain her anger, Little Mint confronted Mo Xiuran with a knife. She demanded the Soul Orb back, claiming her brother wanted it, but Mo Xiuran refused.
Later, news spread that Jun Bao House would be auctioning a Yellow Soul Orb. Nan Pingwan and Bu Ou conspired to give Little Mint a complete makeover, hoping she would outshine Zi You at the auction. Meanwhile, Mo Yuji walked through the streets, reminiscing about his time with Little Mint. He clearly harbored deep feelings for her and had been searching for the Yellow Soul Orb for her. His subordinate soon informed him about the upcoming auction.
Separately, Mo Xiuran instructed Luo Feng to bring Zhao Cai to the auction and to keep a close watch on Su Zimo. At the auction, an elegant hair accessory was presented. Zi You asked Mo Xiuran if it resembled the one his mother gave her, prompting him to bid 200 taels for it. He then, at her request, placed the accessory in her hair, drawing admiring comments from those around them.
Little Mint, fuming with jealousy, was advised by Bu Ou to maintain a calm facade. When the Yellow Soul Orb was finally presented, bidding quickly escalated. Mo Xiuran placed a bid of 3,000 taels. Then, Mo Yuji outbid him with 4,000 taels. Luo Feng whispered something to Mo Xiuran, who then abruptly left. Consequently, Mo Yuji successfully acquired the Yellow Soul Orb.
Mo Xiuran had left to meet Su Zimo, pressing him on why he was so insistent on Little Mint retrieving the Soul Orbs. Su Zimo candidly attributed his interest to a fascination with precious stones. When Luo Feng offered Zhao Cai, Su Zimo calmly took the cat, which showed no unusual reaction, causing Mo Xiuran to question his earlier suspicions.
Back at the auction house, Mo Yuji presented the Yellow Soul Orb to Little Mint, confessing his profound love for her. Little Mint gently declined his feelings, explaining that her heart held no room for anyone other than Mo Xiuran. Mo Yuji accepted her rejection with grace but still insisted she keep the Yellow Soul Orb as a gift from a friend. At that crucial moment, Su Zimo appeared, declaring loudly that the Yellow Soul Orb was, in fact, fake.
