Chapter 7 You are a devil, Dr. Gu
As he spoke, he observed Lin Muci's reaction.
"Just now in the store, a woman approached me under the pretext of exchanging cat-raising experiences, and her cat became very resistant and even a little aggressive. Is this normal?"
Lin Muci's heart skipped a beat.
Here it comes, the fatal question is here!
[He still cares about that woman! ]
How should I respond? Say it's normal? Wouldn't that just be admitting that cats can get jealous?
[Abnormal? Then will he think I'm a cat with mental problems and dislike me?]
[Help! Why am I jealous in front of him? I'm such a fool!]
Lin Muci's CPU was nearly drained. He hesitated for a long time before finally uttering, "This... is normal. Cats have different personalities, just like people. Some cats are naturally aloof, while others are clingy. When they first arrive in a new environment, they'll definitely become very dependent on you, their owner, and consider you their only support. Therefore, rejecting contact with strangers is a sign of insecurity, but also a sign of trust in you."
He thought quickly and turned "jealousy" into "trust".
【I am such a clever little ghost! 】
Lin Muci gave himself a thumbs up for his cleverness in his heart.
"Really?" Gu Chaoyu's tone sounded a little ambiguous, "So you trust me."
"Then... it seems to like being held. Once it is held, it makes a gurgling sound in its throat. What does this mean?" Gu Chaoyu continued to ask.
"That's the cat expressing satisfaction and happiness! It means it likes you very much and feels comfortable and safe in your arms!" Lin Muci almost blurted out, and only after he finished speaking did he realize that he was too excited.
"Oh..." Gu Chaoyu stretched out his tone, "It seems that it really likes me."
[Of course! I like you very much, okay!]
Lin Muci screamed in his heart, but tried hard to maintain a reserved smile on his face.
“No matter how much theory you talk about, it may not be as good as seeing it in practice.”
Just when Lin Muci thought that this thrilling question-and-answer session was finally coming to an end, Gu Chaoyu suddenly dropped the ultimate bomb.
He made an invitation to Lin Muci that he could not refuse.
"Orange is at my house right now. Do you want to... come over and give me some personal guidance?"
【What? ! 】
Go to his house? Give him personal guidance?!
【What kind of guidance is that?! I am that ghost!】
Lin Muci froze in place. Go to Gu Chaoyu's house to see him?
How could he manage to leave his body, standing next to Gu Chaoyu in human form while lying on the living room carpet in cat form, and then point at himself in cat form and say, "Look, the fur color of this cat is so pure, you can tell it's well-fed"?
[This isn't like filming a TV show, where you use stand-ins to fool the cute people in front of the screen.]
[Oh right, a body double! I can find a ginger cat that looks similar to me after transformation. That way, I can appear in front of Dr. Gu at the same time. I really am a little genius.]
[But, now, I can’t go there even if I kill myself!]
[I must find a way to reject him! A perfect and reasonable way!]
The little theater in Lin Muci's mind has begun to frantically perform various rejection scenes.
Saying you have something urgent to do? That's too perfunctory.
You say you don't like cats? Just now you called yourself an expert. Isn't that just contradicting yourself?
Just when a storm was brewing in his head, about to drive him crazy, he suddenly had an idea and thought of his ultimate weapon as an online writer - the deadline!
Yes! That's it!
Lin Muci cleared his throat and tried to make his expression look both apologetic and sincere.
"Um... Doctor Gu, I really want to help you, but..." He showed the trademark embarrassed and painful expression of a social animal, "My editor just gave me an ultimatum. I must submit a 30,000-word manuscript by tonight, otherwise they will come to your house with a knife. As you know, in our industry, delaying the submission of manuscripts is the original sin..."
【I am just an ordinary little genius at telling lies! 】
This reason is perfect! It shows my eagerness to help, explains why I can't go, and it's also fitting for me as a writer! Full marks!
Lin Muci gave himself a big thumbs up in his heart, feeling that he had successfully resolved the crisis.
However, he was too happy too soon.
Gu Chaoyu, a man who looks cold and abstinent on the outside but is actually cunning and sinister on the inside, has no intention of letting him go easily.
Gu Chaoyu frowned slightly, with just the right amount of worry and embarrassment on his face.
"Thirty thousand words? That's really tight." He first expressed his understanding, which made Lin Muci let down his guard a little.
Then, the subject suddenly changed.
"But... Orange seems to be having some kind of stress reaction. He's been hiding in a corner and won't drink water. I'm worried that he won't be able to adapt to his new environment and might get sick."
Gu Chaoyu's voice was low, with a hint of request.
"It won't take you long, just five minutes. Just go over and take a look at it for me and tell me how to soothe it. After all, you're an expert, so it's better than me figuring it out on my own. I'm really worried about it."
[He...he he he...he actually used me to kidnap me!]
He actually said Orange was having a stress reaction! Wasn't I just happily squeezing my breasts in his arms?!
【How could this man have such a dark heart! 】
Gu Chaoyu's words directly put him on the fire.
If he insisted on not going, wouldn't it seem that he, a so-called "cat expert", was cold-blooded and heartless, and would not help a poor little kitten?
This will seriously affect his image in the eyes of his male god!
But if he goes... he will explode on the spot!
[What should I do? What should I do? My brain is going to burn out!]
Lin Muci was so anxious that sweat started to form on his forehead.
Seeing that he was about to cry, Gu Chaoyu laughed in his heart, but delivered a more fatal blow on his face.
"Or..." He pondered for a moment, and as if considering Lin Muci, he offered a "best of both worlds" suggestion, "If you really can't leave, how about... I bring Orange to your house? It's right next door anyway, so it's convenient. You can keep an eye on it while you type. That should be fine, right?"
You are a devil, Doctor Gu!
