If she loses, there will be one more ...
Chapter 21
The meticulously crafted plan still failed, which directly ruined the second plan. If there's no opportunity, create one. Li Miao no longer cared about elaborate planning, because it was useless; she couldn't defeat that wicked woman.
Thinking back to that day when she sat on Guan Shiyun's lap and couldn't get up at all, she knew that as long as she plugged her ears and wasn't fooled, she wouldn't fail. She had plenty of strength, and she wanted to show this bad woman what it meant to overcome all odds with sheer force!
In the car, Li Miao rested her heavy face on her arm, staring out the window in unusual silence. Guan Shiyun, seeing the person who had just been crying now silent, didn't know what to say either.
She didn't know that kittens are always serious, extremely patient, and silent when hunting, just like Li Miao at this moment, who was thinking of a hundred ways to catch fish.
"Meow Meow, are you interested in film and television?" Guan Shiyun thought for a moment and decided to ask about work instead of the dance studio.
"Film and television? Hmm, it's alright, what's wrong?" Li Miao was interrupted from her thoughts.
"When you arrive at the company in a few days, I'll have someone mentor you. Her name is Qiu Xue. She'll help you get familiar with my work first, and then I'll mentor you myself. As for what she'll be doing later, it's something I'm planning to try, but I'm only just getting into it myself. If you're interested, you can work with her, and she'll continue to mentor you." Guan Shiyun explained her plan.
“I’m more familiar with film and television than with your company’s business. I really don’t understand your company’s stuff, but I’ve at least watched TV. I’d like to give this a try,” Li Miao said after thinking for a moment.
"Okay, that's settled then. Qiu Xue is trustworthy and very capable, but she might be a bit introverted and quiet. Let me tell you about her first."
"Okay, I understand. I will learn from her carefully."
The journey wasn't long, and the two quickly returned home after filling their stomachs, just like any other day: washing up and resting. However, for Li Miao, a fishing game had only just begun.
Master bedroom
"You'll stay in the guest room tonight." Guan Shiyun said without any room for negotiation. She was prepared for the kitten to get angry, but this time it didn't.
"Why?" Li Miao's usually expressive face was gone, replaced by the calm composure of a hunter.
Guan Shiyun had the cat wrapped around her little finger, but this sudden change in tactics caught her off guard. She expected the cat to jump up and down, saying, "I don't want to go! I don't want to!" But why? Was she jealous and unable to resist grabbing the cat to play with?
Even faster than her coming up with a way to fool her was Li Miao's continued questioning.
"Sister, how did you feel when you saw the duet today? Were you tempted by me?" Li Miao continued to ask, her eyes fixed on Guan Shiyun, not wanting to miss a single glance.
"It was my initiative that led me to ask Qi Yu for help. Come and dance with me, a duet."
“She dances very well, and her figure is also very good. Her height is also similar to mine.”
"What help did you give me? Guess, sister?" Li Miao's tone became more and more relaxed and cheerful as she spoke, with an extremely innocent smile on her face. She used the word "figure" in a very ambiguous way, but her eyes never wavered and there was no smile in her eyes.
As Guan Shiyun listened to the rhythmic and melodious words, as if afraid she wouldn't catch the key point, Li Miao circled it with an ambiguous pause, speaking in a relaxed tone as if they were just chatting casually, provoking her with an innocent look.
"Why isn't my sister saying anything? Can't you guess? If you can't guess, then I'll tell you the answer. Please show it to someone, because I want to know if she'll get jealous, and what she'll do if she does."
Guan Shiyun maintained excellent control over her expression, only clenching her hands tightly under the book. With a gentle and graceful smile, she gave her answer—a calculated move: honesty.
"I didn't speak because I thought of what you said, so I didn't misunderstand the sudden incident."
Hearing this, Li Miao's smile froze slightly. But Guan Shiyun didn't want insignificant people and things to serve as a buffer or excuse for her to restrain her desires with the kitten; that would only make her kitten anxious and uneasy.
"I thought of it the moment you showed me the duet." Just a little recollection made Guan Shi feel jealous back then. She tried her best to control her expression, but her voice still trembled slightly, and she could only pause for a moment.
"Although I guessed you wanted to make me jealous and was mentally prepared, I admit that when I saw you dancing so in perfect harmony, I still couldn't help but feel jealous." Guan Shiyun maintained her polite smile, but lowered her eyes slightly to hide her desire to kiss the kitten.
Li Miao's eyes lit up again as Guan Shiyun spoke. She had thought that Guan Shiyun had asked her to go to the guest room because she had misunderstood that she and Qi Yu were angry, and that Guan Shiyun was just lying to her. It turned out that she wasn't.
Guan Shiyun also said she was jealous, which made Li Miaohao very happy. Guan Shiyun's words made her feel like she was on a roller coaster. Why was this woman always so smart? Guan Shiyun would never misunderstand her or blame her. No matter what she did, she would indulge her and was always so gentle...
But at this moment, her gentleness left Li Miao helpless. It turned out that gentleness could sometimes burn. Li Miao didn't want Guan Shiyun to be so gentle now. She wanted to see her lose control, be more intense, more crazy, or even more violent. She wanted to feel Guan Shiyun's intense desire; passion was the sweet spring at this moment.
"Meow meow, I'm jealous. Some people get jealous and want to get close to their partners, but others get jealous and ignore them." Guan Shiyun didn't look up.
She wasn't exactly lying; she was just referring to some people. As for which category she belonged to, she didn't specify. She simply used a montage technique to obscure Li Miao's true identity, making Li Miao believe that she went to the guest room because she was the latter. This was her calculated scheme.
So, Guan Shiyun's jealousy resulted in her ignoring everyone? Li Miao was a little confused. This wasn't right, this was very wrong. What was she doing all that fuss? Was she trying to get herself to the guest room?
Li Miao closed her eyes. Had she been misled by Guan Shiyun's words again? Although Guan Shiyun had been very gentle just now, she knew that gentleness was not right, it was different from usual, and her intuition was never wrong.
When she opened her eyes again, Li Miao quickly moved in front of Guan Shiyun, grabbed her neck and lifted her face, wanting to see if there was any longing in her eyes.
"Hmm..." Guan Shiyun was a little flustered by Li Miao's sudden action. The tenderness in her eyes was caught by Li Miao in the moment before it disappeared. How could the little cat, who was always very active, control herself?
He kissed those eloquent lips, seizing her breath, not wanting to listen to her reasoning. No matter how skillful her tongue was, it could only dance along with hers at this moment.
Guan Shiyun's hand, which had been pushing away, was controlled and she felt Li Miao's heartbeat and her dampness. Guan Shiyun, now awake, couldn't break free from the mischievous hand and tried to use the same trick to wake the kitten up, but Li Miao had anticipated this. After leaving her lips, she leaned her head on Guan Shiyun's shoulder, her tone pitiful.
"Sister, I'm perfectly sober, please don't hit me."
Guan Shiyun slowly lowered her raised hand at the sound of pleading and the embrace, her body stiffening slightly. Remembering the wailing kitten from that day, her heart softened, and she reached out to pat its back to comfort it, only to be unexpectedly attacked by the kitten's tiny paw…
How could Li Miao not know that her pleas for mercy would make Guan Shiyun stunned? She reached out to Guan Shiyun's territory, wanting to know if she was like her. This wicked woman was always able to hide her expression, so she looked for other evidence to prove her guess. As a result, her fingers were crystal clear.
"Guan Shiyun! You really know how to hold back and endure. I knew you were a bad woman who always knew how to tease and fool me! You can fool my brain, but you can't fool my feelings! Since you don't want to sleep with me, you can forget about sleeping with me in the future!" After saying that, Li Miao jumped off the bed, slammed the door, and went to the guest room.
When Guan Shiyun realized she had been tricked by the kitten's feigned pitifulness, she felt so ashamed she wanted to jump off a building. But the kitten didn't tease her; it just slammed the door and left. This relieved her, but also made her anxious again. She was genuinely angry...
After calming herself down, Guan Shiyun got up, put down her book, and prepared to go to the guest room. However, as she reached the door, she saw Li Miao return with an angry expression. A little while later, Guan Shiyun would realize that she had misunderstood and that she didn't need to coax the kitten.
Li Miao rushed out of the master bedroom to prepare to go back to fishing. When she kissed Guan Shiyun, she had a flash of inspiration: why should she summarize her failures? She could just use her successful experiences directly, right?
She could play the victim or act maliciously, but Guan Shiyun never blamed her, so what was she afraid of? But she decided to give Guan Shiyun another chance. Ha, reason with her? Grabbing her phone, tie, and handkerchief, she rushed back to the master bedroom.
"Meow meow, I'm not lying to you, but..."
"Heh." Li Miao interrupted with a cold laugh.
Even if we are mutually in love...
"Heh." Li Miao continued to sneer.
Guan Shiyun didn't notice that Li Miao had one hand behind her back; she was simply stating her reasoning. Even if they liked each other, she still hoped that Li Miao would only talk about feelings after she got what she wanted. Without a solid foundation to break free from her influence, any feelings that came across as ingratiating were not what Guan Shiyun wanted.
"Are you done talking?" Guan Shiyun looked at Li Miao, who seemed at a loss, and felt that this time it might be really difficult to coax her. Li Miao had been sneering just now, and now she was asking her questions with extreme impatience. Guan Shiyun calmed down, closed her eyes, and thought of a solution.
"Okay, you're done talking, it's my turn. I'm writing this down on my phone. You've been talking for 4 minutes. I'm giving you 3 minutes. If you can explain yourself within 3 minutes, I'll let you sleep with me. You've exceeded the time limit, Guan Shiyun. You can forget about sleeping with me from now on! The time will be calculated as 4. I'll set an alarm for you. Isn't President Guan always punctual? I'll go downstairs to buy you breakfast at 4 o'clock."
"Li Miao." Guan Shiyun didn't even realize what Li Miao was saying. She thought she hadn't managed to appease Li Miao and continued thinking about what to say next.
"Ha, another half hour, if you keep arguing, it'll all be treated as extra time."
"Li Miao, it's me."
Call me meow.
"Meow, it's me." "What are you doing?" "Stop..." "Let go..." "Ugh, waah..."
When Guan Shiyun's hands were tied with a tie and she was biting a handkerchief, she realized that she seemed to have misunderstood. The kitten was indeed angry, but an angry kitten would not ignore people; it would scratch them.
It's not that "Guan Shiyun can forget about sleeping with Li Miao anymore."
Instead, it's said that 'Guan Shiyun will never be able to sleep again.'
The kitten's resentful meows could still be heard in my ears.
"I told you not to take the bait, I told you not to take the bait, you insist on catching it yourself, huh?"
"If you don't say a single thing that I want to hear, then don't say anything at all, I'll shut you up."
"I asked you to be reasonable, why don't you talk for 9 minutes? After that, I'll take you straight to work."
"You say I'm like a kitten? Well, today I'll let you be the kitten."
...
——Four o'clock
Guan Shiyun felt that when she was jealous, half of what she had imagined had come true. Everything in the comic had come true for her. She was now somewhat glad that she had bitten the handkerchief early on. If she had continued to reason with her, she had no doubt that she would have been exasperated by the little rascal.
She finally understood why the person who called her "meow" under the streetlight that day had such a rich expression. She was planning to retaliate by turning her into a kitten. The handkerchief was there to restrict her speech, forbidding her from saying anything except "meow." She was forced to be a kitten for so long, enduring this humiliation! Ha, coaxing a kitten?
—What a load of rubbish!
