Chapter 20
There was a thunderstorm, and raindrops fell into the pool in strings. Clusters of water flowed across the courtyard, rushing to the small hole in the corner of the wall and tumbling out.
There was water everywhere, muddy and wet.
In the chaos, a few faint cat meows could be heard. The sound was soft and trembling, as if the cat was unable to withstand the heavy rain.
The wet sound penetrated into the ears, making people feel pity.
After a burst of continuous "meow" sounds, the sounds gradually weakened.
The kitten curled up weakly in the corner of the courtyard, its white fur soaked by the heavy rain. Its body was trembling, its mouth open, but it could no longer make any sound.
…
Inside the house, Luo Tingshi lovingly kissed the person in his arms.
Yu Zhi had fallen into a deep sleep; he was too tired.
Luo Tingshi was extremely excited. His lips and teeth slid down along the base of Yu Zhi's ear. When he passed the depression under his neck, he paused slightly. There seemed to be more flesh there than before.
Yu Zhi was born with a small frame and a slim figure, and only gradually gained weight after pregnancy.
Luo Tingshi's gaze involuntarily moved to Yu Zhi's chest.
It's still flat.
Luo Tingshi's eyes darkened. If...
He pondered, tightening his grip around Yu Zhi's waist. The man in his arms struggled slightly, seeming to be in some discomfort, and Luo Tingshi quickly let go.
Putting it close to Yu Zhi's ear, the voice was very soft and gentle: "It's okay, baby, go to sleep."
Yu Zhi calmed down.
Luo Tingshi lowered his head and gently kissed Yu Zhi's forehead. In the darkness, he traced his outline with his lips.
There is no doubt that Yu Zhi is a beauty.
He liked this face.
However, there seemed to be something about Yu Zhi that inexplicably attracted him. Even after changing his appearance to become the ordinary-looking Lu Jing, he could not help but become interested in Yu Zhi.
Luo Tingshi pressed his fingertips on the soft lips of the person in his arms and rubbed them.
His black eyes narrowed slightly.
Yu Zhi seemed to have misunderstood, thinking that everything he said was false and insincere, just a pretense of affection to trick him into letting down his guard.
In fact, only the initial letter proposing to marry "Lu Jing" was a lie. He told Yu Zhi that he fell in love with the beauty at first sight, just to gain Yu Zhi's trust and make Yu Zhi agree to their marriage.
Ever since he knew that the beauty was Yu Zhi, every word he said came from the heart, and he never said a single false word.
But that's not love.
He doesn't love Yu Zhi.
He only wanted to get Yu Zhi.
When he was young, the beautiful little prince cried and threw himself into his arms, and he had this idea -
He wanted to take the little prince back to the palace and lock him up, making him cry in front of him day and night.
He liked the way Yu Zhi cried.
Lightning flashed across the dark sky, and in an instant, the room was as bright as day.
It reflected a pair of obsessed and distorted black pupils.
He used his thumb to apply slight pressure and rubbed the corner of Yu Zhi's eye repeatedly, leaving a bright red mark, as if the person had really cried.
“It’s beautiful.”
Luo Tingshi chuckled softly, prying open the sleeping beauty's lips with the tip of his tongue and kissing her greedily. A sticky, wet sound escaped between his lips and teeth, only to be swallowed up by the rumbling of thunder and rain.
-
After waking up, Yu Zhi felt refreshed.
Luo Tingshi disappeared and no one knew where he went.
Yu Zhi slowly put on his clothes, shoes, and socks, got out of bed, and scooped water from the jar to wash his face. When he stepped out of the house, the sky had cleared up, and the smell of moist earth mixed with the fragrance of green grass greeted him. Yu Zhi strolled around the yard and came to the well, where he saw Luo Tingshi.
Luo Tingshi is...
do the laundry?
Yu Zhi rubbed his eyes. This scene was too weird.
Walking over to take a look, Yu Zhi was amused. Luo Tingshi was just scrunching up his clothes and immersing them in the water.
He kicked Luo Tingshi lightly with his toes.
"If you don't know how to wash, don't wash it. Brother Li doesn't have many clothes to begin with, and these are newly made and have never been worn. Be careful not to ruin them in the wash."
Luo Tingshi: "I will give him the money and buy his clothes."
Yu Zhiqi asked, "Why did you buy it? Could it be that after wearing it for half a day, you fell in love with this coarse cloth?"
Luo Tingshi raised his eyes and stared at Yu Zhi with a gloomy look.
Yu Zhi suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
"You might not remember clearly at that time, but I spread it on the bed." Luo Tingshi lowered his voice, "The whole dress is soaked with His Majesty's wine. How can I return it to Li Daniu?"
Yu Zhiyu's pale face was instantly stained with blood. Fearing that the man would say something vulgar again, she glared at him and walked away with a flick of her sleeves.
"Oh, there's a kitten here. Is it dying?"
A scream came from the corner of the yard. Yu Zhi stopped and turned over there, only to see Li Daniu's little daughter Li Huanhuan squatting in the corner, staring at a kitten lying by the pool.
Yu Zhi walked quickly forward and picked up the kitten.
The kitten in his arms was as thin as a bag of bones, his eyes were closed, and his breathing was extremely weak.
Yu Zhi secretly thought that this was not good.
The cat rescue plan has started!
The first step is to let the little girl go to the village to find Doctor Zhang.
The second step is to find a warm place and use a towel dipped in warm water to remove the coldness from the kitten.
Step 3: Dry the kitten’s wet fur.
Yu Zhi moved very quickly. When Luo Tingshi found Yu Zhi, Yu Zhi was sitting in front of the stove holding the kitten and wiping its wet fur.
The kitten's body was a little stiff, and it exhaled more than it inhaled.
It's almost gone.
Luo Tingshi said, "I'm afraid he can't be saved."
As soon as the words fell, a chill rushed into Luo Tingshi's eyes. Yu Zhi glared at him fiercely and said angrily, "Shut your crow mouth. If you can't speak, don't speak."
Luo Tingshi immediately fell silent, stood with his hands hanging down, and said no more.
"Brother, I've brought the doctor, come and check on the kitten!" The little girl's clear voice crossed the yard and went into the kitchen. After a while, she ran in chirping and grabbed Yu Zhi's hand, "Brother, hurry up and let the doctor check on the kitten."
Luo Tingshi quickly separated the two of them, holding Yu Zhi in his arms, and frowned, saying, "Don't pull him, or you might drop him."
The tall man exuded a cold aura. The little girl shrank her neck, scratching her hands helplessly, and whispered, "I'm sorry, I forgot that my brother had a baby in his belly."
Yu Zhi raised his elbow and nudged the man: "Why scare the child?"
After saying that, he leaned over slightly, touched the little girl's head, and said to her in a gentle voice: "Don't be afraid, let's go find a doctor together."
Luo Tingshi was very unhappy watching this scene.
Yu Zhi is gentle to everyone except him, and is always unpleasant to him.
But... does this also mean that in Yu Zhi's heart he is special and different from others?
Thinking of this, Luo Tingshi's lips curled up slightly.
Yu Zhi saw all the changes in his expression. Seeing him angry at one moment and happy at another, Yu Zhi thought to himself.
Luo Tingshi is indeed moody.
Several people came to the main hall. Doctor Zhang had already taken out all the medical supplies from the medicine box. Seeing Yu Zhi, he breathed a sigh of relief: "The little girl said to save the cat, I thought you... scared me."
Luo Tingshi's eyebrows moved slightly.
Several people gathered around the table, watching Doctor Zhang treat the kitten. Luo Tingshi leaned against the column behind him, his arms folded, silently pondering Doctor Zhang's words.
"Meow~" A faint cat's cry entered Luo Tingshi's ears.
Luo Tingshi looked up and saw the kitten had opened its eyes. It nestled obediently in Yu Zhi's arms and gently licked the back of his hand.
Yu Zhi touched the kitten and raised his head with a smile.
The round eyes, which were exactly the same as the kitten in his arms, were filled with smiles, which flew out from the corners of his curved eyes and came towards him.
For some reason, Luo Tingshi's heart suddenly began beating wildly, causing a dull pain in his chest. It felt like there was a kitten inside his chest, punching and kicking him.
Luo Tingshi clutched his sleeves, exhaled softly, and followed the pair of smiling eyes.
Suddenly woke up.
It turns out that Yu Zhi looks better when he smiles than when he cries.
