Chapter 19 I feed you, you do things for me

"I don't have your food." Su Rui waved her hand. She didn't have time to find a cat to serve her.

But the Black Bodhisattva did not move. He still stood there, staring, as if stating his request once again.

It's a request, not a plea.

One man and one cat, just facing each other.

In the end, Su Rui was defeated first.

Why would she bother with a cat? She must be so idle that she has nothing to worry about.

Her meals were delivered to her on time every day. Someone would take a small bowl, put some food in it, sprinkle some perfume on it, and then put it under the corridor.

The Black Bodhisattva was really not polite at all. He walked forward and started eating as soon as the bowl landed on the ground.

It was eaten very quickly and was cleaned up in no time.

With her round belly, she didn't even look at Su Rui. She turned around, trotted a few steps, jumped onto the outer wall and left.

Running away after eating is not responsible at all.

"Unfaithful cat." Su Rui cursed and finished her meal.

Before I could collect the bowls, someone came to the door.

It was the old eunuch who brought her to the courtyard.

I came to urge her.

Su Rui suppressed all his expression and asked, "What are your instructions, eunuch?"

"Nothing, just came to see Miss Su." The old eunuch smiled, but his eyes were cold. "Mr. Yunji is meditating in Feiyun Pavilion right now. Miss, would you like to go and see him?"

Is this something she wants or doesn't want?

But Su Rui answered honestly and went to Feiyun Pavilion quickly. The old eunuch's information was indeed accurate. Yun Ji was on the top floor of Feiyun Pavilion.

The problem is that Su Rui can only watch.

There are no big monks guarding the pavilion today, only secret guards.

Standing there openly was telling Su Rui that it was impossible to get close to her.

There was no other way, Su Rui could only choose to endure.

I found a big tree and sat under its shade waiting.

She waited from noon until nightfall, with the lights on and the sound of wooden fish making her eyelids droop, but Yun Ji showed no intention of getting married.

You bastard, you're so heartless.

"Female donor, the master will be meditating for several days and will not leave Feiyun Pavilion. You'd better go back." Huiming stepped forward and reminded her reluctantly.

Su Rui knew very well that Yun Ji would not give her the chance to catch him, but if she had no other options and took no action, the emperor would not tolerate her before the one-month deadline was up.

Just as I was feeling depressed, I saw something falling from the second floor of Feiyun Pavilion out of the corner of my eye.

Under the candlelight, there is a cat.

Black cat.

"Is that... the Black Bodhisattva?" Su Rui asked, pointing.

Huiming nodded without any surprise.

"You knew it was in there?"

"I don't know." Huiming shook his head. "But it's not surprising that it came out of Feiyun Pavilion. Black Bodhisattva was raised by Mr. Yunji. He is very close to him and often sleeps beside him."

"It's Yunji's cat? Why didn't you say so earlier!" Su Rui wanted to pry open the little bald donkey's mouth to see what else he was hiding.

Huiming shrank back in fear and said aggrievedly, "Donor lady, you didn't ask. Besides, the cats are all wild cats, not Mr.'s."

Su Rui didn't argue with him and turned to leave.

Huiming hurriedly stopped her, "Don't follow the Black Bodhisattva, lady. It's very smart and won't go looking for Mr. Yunji if it finds someone following it. Besides, even if you can catch up with it, you won't be able to enter Feiyun Pavilion."

"I won't follow it, nor will I go into Feiyun Pavilion. I'm going back to sleep." Pushing Huiming's hand away, Su Rui strode towards the courtyard.

Looking at her cheerful back, Huiming scratched his bald head in confusion, wondering if his words just now had made the female donor happy.

At Feiyun Pavilion, Yun Ji felt strange as he watched Su Rui walk out of the compound without looking back.

She is not someone who will give up easily. Even if there is no chance at all, she will hold on until the very last moment. This has been the case for the past few days.

Now that he can leave so easily, has he given up or is there another way?

Yun Ji didn't think that Su Rui could get close to him under the current circumstances, so he stopped thinking about it and continued to meditate.

Su Rui slept comfortably all night and got up early the next morning. She made a bowl of cat food that was colorful, fragrant and delicious, and added precious spices. She put it under the corridor, moved a stool and sat next to it waiting.

It was not until noon that the dark shadow arrived as expected.

The moment he landed, the Black Bodhisattva's body shook when he smelled the fragrance. He stared at the bowl of rice in front of Su Rui, and his originally cold eyes were filled with excitement, and even his pace quickened.

Just as it opened its mouth wide and was about to take a big bite, Su Rui quickly snatched the bowl away from its mouth.

A flash of shock flashed across Black Bodhisattva's eyes. He raised his head and stared at Su Rui coldly, as if asking her what she was going to do.

Su Rui smiled treacherously, shaking the bowl in her hand, and continuously emitting fragrance, saying: "If you want to eat, you can, but you can't eat and drink for free. I will give you food, and you do things for me."

Black Bodhisattva looked at Su Rui, unable to tell whether she understood or not.

Su Rui didn't care and took out a black ribbon and said, "Tie this thing around your neck. Take it with you to find Yun Ji and stay with him for an hour. If you eat, it means you agree."

The Black Bodhisattva still looked at her in the same way.

Su Rui put down the bowl of rice, and Black Bodhisattva lowered his head to eat, allowing Su Rui to tie a black ribbon around its neck, which blended with its fur and could not be distinguished without careful observation.

But as to whether it understood her words, Su Rui couldn't be sure, so she could only try.

Just like yesterday, Black Bodhisattva left after eating without staying a moment longer.

Su Rui continued to sit and wait.

We waited from noon to dusk.

As the sun set, the elongated shadow of a cat was cast in from outside the courtyard gate, step by step approaching until it reached Su Rui. The Black Bodhisattva sat down, as if waiting for inspection.

Su Rui took the silk scarf off its neck, put it under her nose and sniffed it, her eyes widening in surprise.

This cat is really human-like!

She soaked the ribbon with a scent that could blend with the sandalwood on Yun Ji's body to produce another scent. The longer the time, the stronger the fragrance.

As for the one hour mentioned to Black Bodhisattva, it was just said casually. Unexpectedly, it was understood by the Black Bodhisattva. From the smell, it seemed that it had stayed with Yun Ji for exactly one hour.

Immediately, Su Rui brought out the prepared meal and took off the Bodhi root bracelet from her hand and placed it aside.

"Please give this bracelet to Yunji. In the future, as long as you help me deliver things, I will pay for your three meals a day."

The Black Bodhisattva didn't look up, but just kept eating.

After licking the bowl clean, he licked his paws as if wiping his mouth or washing his hands. Finally, he picked up Su Rui's Bodhi root, turned around and disappeared into the night.
