Shen Jinghe didn't know if the cat smelled good, but he felt that Wen Yan should smell good at this moment.
She had just washed her face, and the stray hairs on her forehead were wet and clung tightly to her skin, making her look very fresh.
"You went out just now to bring Shen Pili back?"
"Yeah, Shen Pili hasn't seen you in ages. Don't you think so, Pili?"
The moment Wen Yan grasped the cat's paw, she couldn't help but pinch it: "Little Pili, quickly say hello to Daddy. Do you miss Daddy? Has Daddy not kissed, hugged, or lifted our little Pili up high in a long time?"
Wen Yan did it involuntarily while pinching, and only realized it after she finished.
"Oh my god, was my tone really disgusting?" she asked Shen Jinghe on the other end of the video call, only to see Shen Jinghe quickly pull back his other phone.
"What are you doing?" Wen Yan immediately sat up. "You were holding up another phone, were you screen recording? What are you doing? Did you record me looking disgusted?!"
Shen Jinghe frowned: "Disgusting? I don't think so."
"Get lost! I've seen through your serious face. Look at how many ugly and embarrassing pictures of me are in your album. You're definitely going to use this video to prank me! No way, you'd better delete what you just recorded."
The more Wen Yan said that, the more Shen Jinghe wanted to tease her.
"I won't delete it unless you pay to buy it out."
Wen Yan rolled her eyes at him: "I knew you'd pull this trick. You're not short of money, so why do you always try to fool me with this? I'm not falling for it anymore."
Shen Jinghe chuckled: "You've become smarter."
"Tch, I've always been smart, okay? Hurry up and delete it."
Despite Wen Yan's earnest attempts to persuade him, Shen Jinghe simply shook his head.
Wen Yan was so angry that she poked the screen with her finger: "How could you be like this?"
Shen Jinghe still had a faint smile on his lips: "What are you afraid of? I won't expose it."
"Yes, yes, you're loyal and won't expose it, but you might post it in the family group chat. Do you think I'm shameless?"
Shen Jinghe laughed even harder: "I don't understand, it's clearly a very loving video, why do you find it disgusting?"
As he spoke, Shen Jinghe also showed Wen Yan the video he had just recorded.
"Look, how cute you are when you're holding our cat and making her call me Dad. You can tell from that little pinched voice that you really like Shen Pili. What a loving scene."
Wen Yan didn't notice that Shen Jinghe used the phrase "our cat made her call him daddy." She only heard Shen Jinghe keep saying how cute her voice was, but when she watched this part, she got goosebumps all over.
"You're making fun of me, you must be making fun of me."
"I didn't." Shen Jinghe's smile vanished. "I really wasn't laughing at you. Why won't you believe what I'm saying? But whether you believe it or not, I assure you this video will absolutely not be leaked."
"Who would believe you? Do you dare swear an oath?"
"What's there to be afraid of? If I were to lie to you, I wish I could never eat instant noodles with a seasoning packet for the rest of my life."
Wen Yan: "...Second Young Master, how many times have you eaten instant noodles in your life so far? May I ask you?"
“Alright, it seems you think this oath isn’t cruel enough.” Shen Jinghe raised a hand. “Then I’ll start over. If I’m lying to you, may I never get a role for the rest of my life, and may every role I play flop.”
"Wow! That's pretty ruthless."
Shen Jinghe smiled and said, "Now you believe me, right? Don't worry, I'll only keep this video for my collection."
Wen Yan had already lowered her guard, but as soon as she heard the word 'collection,' she immediately felt uneasy.
"Come on, bro, what the heck is this 'collection' thing? I have a feeling you're holding back a big move so you can manipulate me later."
"You don't trust me at all?" Shen Jinghe raised an eyebrow. "I've never treated you badly, have I?"
"Not bad at all. You really can handle things when something happens, I know that about you."
"Hmph, at least you still have some conscience. So you just don't like me joking with you like this, right? That's okay." Shen Jinghe stared at Wen Yan, his face serious as he spoke, "I can change."
"..." Wen Yan was silent for two seconds, then burst into laughter, "Hahaha, that was a non-still image. But what's wrong with you, Shen Jinghe? Did the sun rise in the west today? One minute you're saying you love my character on social media, the next you're saying you want to change it. Did you take the wrong medicine? Do you have a fever? Should you go to the hospital?"
"…………" Shen Jinghe sighed silently. He wanted to be nicer to her, but she didn't believe him. Was it because the impression of her sharp tongue and arrogance that he usually gave her had been deeply rooted in her mind?
"Alright, Wen Yan, then just pretend the sun rose in the west today."
"Alright. I don't know if you're in a good mood or a bad mood today, but for the sake of such an adorable Shen Pili, let all the bad moods disappear."
Wen Yan held the cat's paw and together they made a heart shape with their hands for Shen Jinghe.
Shen Jinghe watched this scene unfold and silently took a screenshot.
She said cats are cute, but she probably doesn't know that she herself is the cutest.
Thinking of this, Shen Jinghe couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Wen Yan".
"Um?"
Shen Jinghe frowned even more: "What exactly is going on between you and that Gu Xiran?"
Wen Yan looked puzzled: "What? What happened? What's going on?"
