Because of New Year's Day, Mu Qinshu stayed at the old house for several more days with Xiao Qifeng and Lu Wanzheng.
Recently, the fantasy drama with two male leads that she filmed before is airing on Hunan TV. As a supporting actress, Lu Wanzheng naturally has to promote it, and she forwarded the Weibo post from the official account.
Her last Weibo post was a promotional post for "The Great Journey of Hua", which was several months ago. Her long absence from social media made her fans think she was in seclusion filming, so they commented on her Weibo every day, urging her to come out and post more often.
Now that they've finally started working again, all they get is a work-related Weibo post, which might leave fans feeling a little disappointed. However, true fans are happy to see a new drama to watch and are hoping it will be a huge hit.
After Lu Wanzheng reposted the Weibo post, she didn't immediately log out. Instead, she noticed that there seemed to be quite a few comments under her previous Weibo post. When she clicked on them, she saw that many people were urging her to post more content and take nice photos. They were clearly her fans who admired her looks. Scrolling back, she saw that the comments came from different periods of time, but they were all concentrated in the last few months.
Lu Wanzheng smiled helplessly. She was living a comfortable life and forgot that she still had many fans online. Among her many fans, her most basic fans were her fans who admired her looks. Seeing that they had such a request, Lu Wanzheng felt that she was very good to her fans. She immediately took her phone to look for Potato. After asking around, she finally found it in the toy room that Mu Qinshu had built for Potato.
There was a window in the toy room. When she entered the toy room, she saw Potato lying on the windowsill, looking out the window.
The window of the toy room overlooks the garden of the Xiao family's old house, which used to be Potato's favorite place to play.
Outside the window, everything was white. Winter had arrived in Kyoto, and it had already snowed several times. Last night, there was a heavy snowfall, and the snow on the ground was several centimeters thick, with snow piled up on the tree branches.
The garden is planted with plum trees, and on cold days, the buds on the plum trees are quietly blooming.
Potato's tail swayed behind it, but its body remained completely still, and no one knew what it was thinking.
As everyone knows, a cat and its tail are two separate things.
Lu Wanzheng took out her phone and took a picture of Potato, which she could use to post on Weibo later.
She walked to the windowsill, sat down in the chair by the window, and stroked Potato's head. "Little guy, what are you looking at?"
"Meow~" Potato opened its mouth wide and meowed, turned its head to look at Lu Wanzheng, and then jumped into her arms, acting silly and playful in her embrace.
"Looking outside, do you want to go out and play?" Lu Wanzheng stroked the fur on Potato's body and reached her claws towards its belly.
Whether Lu Wanzheng guessed its thoughts or it was because she was petting it too comfortably, Potato kept quacking in her arms.
“It’s not that we can’t go out, but it’s really cold outside. We need to wear warm clothes before we can go out.” Speaking of clothes, the little dress she bought for Potato before can’t be worn this season, but Mu Qinshu has prepared a lot of boys’ clothes for Potato.
There's another small wardrobe in the toy room, filled with clothes prepared for Potato.
Ludou's eyes lit up when he heard that he could go out. He slipped out of her hand, jumped lightly to the ground, and ran towards the small wardrobe.
Seeing this, Lu Wanzheng chuckled and followed it to the small wardrobe. Potato couldn't open the wardrobe, so only she could see it. Inside the wardrobe were all kinds of small clothes. Unlike the clothes at home, the clothes prepared here were all for boys.
She glanced around and her gaze finally settled on a little dinosaur costume. It was bright green and very cute. She took the little dinosaur costume out of the closet and put it on Potato.
Munchkin cat loves to stand on its hind legs. After putting on the little dinosaur costume, Potato suddenly stood up, wearing a little dinosaur hat on his head. He looked very cute. "Come on, I'll take you to play in the garden for a while."
The house was very warm, and she was only wearing a sweater. If she went out like that, she would probably freeze into an icicle. She quickly ran back to her room, put on a down jacket, and then put on a scarf and hat. She searched for a while but couldn't find gloves in the closet.
After getting ready, she carried the potato to the back garden. When she arrived, she put the potato on the snow. The potato had short legs, and as soon as its feet touched the snow, it sank completely and was buried in the snow. From a distance, it looked as if it had no legs, which made Lu Wanzheng laugh so hard that she squatted down.
Apart from the plum trees, the other trees in the garden were all bare. The wintersweet was exuding a subtle fragrance, and although the bright red buds had not fully opened, the yellow stamens inside were already showing.
The ground was covered with a layer of snow, and Lu Wanzheng made a crunching sound as she walked on it. Potato ran happily on the ground. While other kittens left small plum blossom marks on the snow, Potato left a long path.
Lu Wanzheng took out her phone to take a picture of it. Lu Wanzheng often took pictures of Potato before, and as soon as it saw Lu Wanzheng holding the phone and pointing it at it, it immediately stopped moving.
Potato is very well-behaved; she will obediently perform a few actions that make one's maternal instincts surge.
Adding this little dinosaur costume makes it even more irresistible.
New Year's Day is a national holiday, but as the president, Xiao Qifeng naturally couldn't be idle. He went to his study early in the morning to start working. He had just finished his work and walked out of the room, only to find that the people in the room had disappeared.
He frowned, walked to the window, and saw the scene in the garden downstairs: a person and a cat standing in the snow. The girl was squatting down, taking pictures of the cat with her phone. Seeing this, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
Xiao Qifeng immediately put on his coat and hurried downstairs. He stood at the entrance of the garden and saw Lu Wanzheng still taking pictures. On a whim, he took out his phone, stood behind her, and took a picture of the person and the cat.
He didn't call Lu Wanzheng, but instead sent her the photos he had just taken, and then quietly waited for her to turn around.
Lu Wanzheng wanted to take a few more photos of Tudou. Weibo had recently been updated; previously, she could only post a nine-grid layout, but now she could take eighteen photos at once, so naturally she wanted to take more.
Suddenly, a message popped up on WeChat from Xiao Qifeng, showing that he had sent a photo.
She wondered why Xiao Qifeng, who should be working in his study, had suddenly sent her a photo. She stood up from the snow and opened the message.
The photo was very clear; it was a picture of her squatting down to take a picture of the potatoes. A thought struck her, and she turned around abruptly.
A man stood at the entrance to the garden, his figure sturdy and his shoulders broad. Xiao Qifeng met Lu Wanzheng's eyes; her amber eyes shimmered with tiny sparkles, like cracks suddenly appearing on the surface of a lake, allowing sunlight to stream into the dark depths.
She pursed her lips and ran to his side. "Are you done with your work?" She couldn't help but lean closer to Xiao Qifeng.
Xiao Qifeng pulled her into his arms. Seeing her small hands, which were red from the cold, he immediately took them. He felt that Lu Wanzheng's hands were icy cold, as if they had no temperature at all, so he pulled her hands into his arms. "You went out in such cold weather without even wearing gloves. Be careful not to get frostbite."
With both hands in the man's arms, Lu Wanzheng felt the temperature of her hands rise rapidly, and her knuckles were no longer as cold as before. "I just looked around and didn't see the gloves. I thought I would only be out for a short while."
"I'll have someone buy them for you later. Remember to bring gloves next time you leave the house."
"I know, I've noticed you've become quite fussy lately." Lu Wanzheng laughed without a care in the world. Having someone like this to keep an eye on her didn't bother her at all.
However, this cannot be blamed on Xiao Qifeng's nagging. When he touched Lu Wanzheng's hands just now, he felt as if he was holding a piece of ice, which was cold to the bone.
Xiao Qifeng called out to the potatoes in the distance, then pulled Lu Wanzheng back into the house.
Seeing the two leave, Potato immediately trotted after them.
As soon as they entered the house, the warmth hit them. Lu Wanzheng's cold cheeks instantly warmed up. She was wearing a down jacket, and after only a short while in the house, she started sweating profusely. She immediately took off her down jacket, and Xiao Qifeng helped her take off her scarf as well.
Lu Wanzheng put the clothes on the sofa, took two sheets of paper from the coffee table, and then walked over to the potatoes.
Potato had just rolled around in the snow, and his clothes and feet were covered in snow. She helped Potato take off his dinosaur costume. Wearing that at home, he'd probably faint from the heat in no time.
Then she used a tissue to wipe Potato's slightly damp feet before letting it run around the house freely.
After staying at home for a few days, the old lady went back to the temple. Xiao Qifeng said that she wouldn't be back until a few days before the Spring Festival. Mu Qinshu went to play mahjong with her girlfriends. She originally wanted to ask Lu Wanzheng if she wanted to go, so she could introduce her to her girlfriends. However, Lu Wanzheng wasn't interested in that and declined, staying obediently at home.
During this time, Lu Wanzheng wanted to rest for a while, so she didn't ask Yao Zijun to arrange work for her. Bored at home, she could only play with potatoes and eat some snacks.
She didn't go back to her room, but sat directly on the sofa. Xiao Qifeng went to the kitchen to have fruit tea prepared. When he came out, he sat next to Lu Wanzheng, took her hand, and placed it in his own palm.
Lu Wanzheng's hands had just been chilled, and now, in the warm house, they felt a little itchy. It seemed that Xiao Qifeng was right. She rubbed her hands, and when Xiao Qifeng sat down next to her, he began to massage her fingers.
Lu Wanzheng operated her phone with one hand, looking at the photos she had just taken, and deleted the ones she wasn't satisfied with. Seeing this, Xiao Qifeng asked, "What are you doing?"
“I’m going to post something,” Lu Wanzheng said, operating her phone with one hand, which was a bit inconvenient. “My fans said I haven’t posted anything in a long time, so I’m going to post a few pictures of potatoes to give them an update.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qifeng understood her intention. His expression softened slightly as he massaged her hands and said, "Then post the one I just sent you too. Since we're asking you to do your job, it wouldn't be right if you didn't post your own photos."
Lu Wanzheng felt that Xiao Qifeng made a lot of sense. Although she was only in the back view of the photo, she was still in it. She couldn't post too many photos, as posting eighteen would be tiring, so she decided to just post a nine-grid layout.
She placed the photos taken by Xiao Qifeng in the center, and then put the potatoes she had photographed around them.
I've already thought of the captions: I'll write about the potatoes I photographed and the potatoes Mr. Xiao photographed. [doge][doge]
She posted it just like that, and sure enough, the comments started coming in shortly afterward.
[Finally, they're working seriously again, but I'm still not entirely satisfied with this back view. Next time, I hope they can show their face.]
[Potato's outfit is so cute! Suddenly I want to have a cat like that too.]
[I've noticed a problem: the background seems to be from an unfamiliar location, completely different from the backgrounds in the previous photos.]
After reading the caption, I'm so jealous! This is a public display of affection. And since the backgrounds are different, I guess they're getting married soon and have moved to a new place.
Both parents are so good-looking, will their child be even more good-looking? Looking forward to it!!!
The comments quickly shifted from praising the potato's cuteness to congratulating Lu Wanzheng and Xiao Qifeng, followed by another round of blessings, and then urging the two to get married soon.
Lu Wanzheng looked at the comments that were gradually going astray and showed them to Xiao Qifeng on her phone, saying, "This generation of netizens is something else, they love to worry too much."
Xiao Qifeng glanced at it briefly and said softly, "Yes, they're right. Our future children, girls will definitely be beautiful and boys will definitely be handsome." He guessed how netizens would react after seeing the photo he took, and he had achieved his goal: to tell everyone that Lu Wanzheng was his alone.
Lu Wanzheng glared at Xiao Qifeng. No wonder he had offered to post the photos he took earlier; he had ulterior motives.
Knowing he was in the wrong, Xiao Qifeng lowered his head and gently massaged her hands.
...
The two stayed at the old house for more than a week before returning home. Xiao Qifeng found Potato too troublesome, and since Mu Qinshu liked it, he simply left it at the old house. Lu Wanzheng had recently taken on a youth campus drama, so she didn't have much energy to take care of Potato.
She roughly estimated that by the time the show ended, it would be around the end of the lunar year.
Xiao Qifeng's work also became busy, but fortunately the drama was filmed in Kyoto, and she was only a supporting actress with a relatively small role, so she could go home to stay often.
After not living in the house for more than a week, Lu Wanzheng felt a bit empty when she got back. The first thing she did when she got home was to turn on the heating. She didn't rush to take off her down jacket.
She took the wooden box she had brought back from the old house out of the bag and took it to the study. There was a safe in the study, which had been empty until now, and this time it was perfect to put the wooden box there.
