Chapter 15
Looking at Xu Xun's handsome and calm face, Shen Tingzhou suddenly thought of something -
Geigei, is it a bad timing that I came here?
What is this dirty thing?
Shen Tingzhou quickly shook off this strange voice.
He smiled and said to Xu Xun, "Don't disturb him. He is leaving soon."
Immersed in a depressed mood, Zhou Zitan didn't even notice Xu Xun's existence and left quietly.
Zhou Zitan did not take the elevator. Instead, he turned into the stairs with a frown on his face.
Shen Tingzhou wanted to stop him and tell him that he lived on the 24th floor and that crawling down like this might be a bit unkind to his knees.
Xu Xun took a step forward and blocked Shen Tingzhou's sight.
Shen Tingzhou was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to say something, Xu Xun picked up the cage in his hand and said, "There is a cat here."
Shen Tingzhou's eyes suddenly widened, and then burst out with love.
Xu Xun carried the cat cage he had taken out and walked into Shen Tingzhou's house in a dignified manner.
Shen Tingzhou's full attention was drawn to the little cat in the cat cage, whose snow-white body was mixed with a little silver-gray spiky hair.
Xu Xun sat on the sofa and put the cat cage on his knees.
Shen Tingzhou regained some of his senses and asked in confusion, "Where does the little silver gradient come from?"
Xu Xun said calmly, "I picked it up."
Shen Tingzhou swallowed. Where did he pick up such a cute cat?
Before he could ask, Xu Xun said something surprising, "You have a child?"
Shen Tingzhou was choked by his own saliva, "What, what?"
child?
He doesn't even have a cat of his own, so how can he have a child?
Xu Xun reminded: "Su Yu, child."
Shen Tingzhou explained with a smile, "How can it be my child? At most, I am the child's future godfather."
Xu Xun asked again, "Which one do you want, the cat or the child?"
As he said this, he held the cat cage on his lap and looked at Shen Tingzhou with a seemingly calm but actually deep gaze, just like Qin Xianglian who brought her son to the capital to attack Chen Shimei.
Shen Shimei, no, Shen Tingzhou looked dazed.
How can cats and children be compared together?
But then again, if he really had to choose...
Shen Tingzhou has not thought about getting married and having children yet. He only wants to earn enough money to retire and raise a few cats at home.
The reason why he doesn't keep the cat now is not because he doesn't have the conditions to provide the cat with a rich life, with dried fish and canned food.
It's because we are too busy and don't have enough time to spend with them.
Xu Xun looked at Shen Tingzhou with a serious expression, as if he must get an answer from Shen Tingzhou today.
Which one should he choose between the cat in his arms and the child?
Shen Tingzhou hesitated for a long time, and finally said softly: "Then...it's still a cat."
Children are cute, but cats are even better.
Xu Xun seemed satisfied with Shen Tingzhou's answer. He took out the small silver gradient from the cage, put it into Shen Tingzhou's arms, and said angrily, "Have fun with it."
This silver gradient cat was still a clip cat and meowed at Shen Tingzhou.
Shen Tingzhou's heart softened instantly and he immediately offered the cat noodle.
Silver Gradient Moon was still young, so Shen Tingzhou didn't dare feed it too much. He let it eat two bites and then took it back.
The kitten tasted the sweetness and started to stick to Shen Tingzhou, licking his fingers that held the cat food.
Xu Xun watched quietly as Shen Tingzhou picked up the cat, stroked the kitten's soft belly with his slender fingers, and rubbed the cat's ears with his chin.
He lowered his eyes, the corners of his lips curled up, his profile was blended in the halo, and his whole person looked clean and soft.
Such a nice and soft cat!
Xu Xun suddenly reached out, took the cat back, and put it back into the cage.
Shen Tingzhou, empty-handed, looked over blankly.
Why won’t you let me jerk off?
Xu Xun stood up with the cat cage in his hand and said calmly, "It's getting late. We should go back to bed."
Shen Tingzhou inexplicably felt like a poor parent who had not won custody of his child and could only watch helplessly as his noble and cold ex took the child away.
"This kid..." Shen Tingzhou sneered, "This cat is still young."
Xu Xun said, "I will take good care of it. If you really care about it, spend more time with it. It's better than wasting your time on other people's children."
Shen Tingzhou: ...
The feeling of being caught up in some kind of family ethics drama is becoming more and more real.
"No..." Shen Tingzhou said weakly, "I mean, cats have a strong sense of territory, and Silver Gradient is still young, so the big cat might bully it."
This is a difficulty that every family with two children has to face.
Xu Xun frowned, "They're still fighting?"
Shen Tingzhou closed his eyes calmly, "Sit down first, let's talk about these two kids...how these two cats get along."
It’s a cat! Cat!!! Cat!!!
Shen Tingzhou, who had been speaking incorrectly, was frantically correcting himself in his heart.
-
The final result of Shen Tingzhou's discussion with Xu Xun was to keep Xiao Yinjiance with him for the time being.
The next day, Shen Tingzhou carried the cat over again so that the two cats could get familiar with each other.
If the big beetle cat doesn't react too much, little Yin Jianceng can join the family directly. Otherwise, let Shen Tingzhou take it back and spend more time letting them get along with each other.
After deciding that Xiao Yinjian would stay tonight, Shen Tingzhou saw Xu Xun off with a smile on his face.
When Xu Xun stood up, he caught a glimpse of Shen Tingzhou's hands folded in front of him. There were two thin blood scabs on the joints of his right hand. He immediately asked, "What's wrong with your hands?"
Shen Tingzhou was stunned for a moment, then he raised his hand and said, "This, I accidentally touched it."
Xu Xun was still staring at the blood scab on his hand, "Where did you get it?"
Shen Tingzhou didn't expect Xu Xun to ask more questions, so he subconsciously told the truth, "I met a pervert in the afternoon."
Xu Xun's eyes darkened, "Your classmate?"
Shen Tingzhou looked confused, "What classmate? Not a classmate. When I went out with Mr. Su in the afternoon, I met a pervert who was secretly taking photos of girls in the mall."
Xu Xun asked in a deep voice, "Which mall?"
Shen Tingzhou said, "Four Elephants."
Xu Xun then asked him which floor of the mall he was on and the exact time of the fight.
Although Shen Tingzhou didn't know why he asked this, he still told the truth.
In fact, he couldn't remember the exact time when he started fighting with the pervert. It was only after he heard Su Yu and Yu Mingyan talk about it that he realized it was around three o'clock.
After saying this, Shen Tingzhou suddenly reacted. Su Yu told Yu Mingyan the time, which should be convenient for Yu Mingyan to check the surveillance.
Xu Xun is asking him now, probably for the purpose of surveillance.
Seeing Xu Xun's concern about this matter, Shen Tingzhou said, "Don't worry, Mr. Su has asked his friends in the police station to investigate."
Xu Xun twitched his lips, looked at Shen Tingzhou and said, "Didn't Mr. Su bandage your hand?"
Shen Tingzhou inexplicably felt that Xu Xun's voice was a little bit ambiguous when he talked about Mr. Su, and it was the kind of ambiguous tone that was tinged with a bit of eerie undertones.
But Xu Xun's face showed no emotion, and there was no reason for him to be hostile to Su Yu.
So Shen Tingzhou calmly explained, "This injury doesn't need to be bandaged."
Xu Xun seemed to hum, but also seemed not to.
On the coffee table was the ointment that had been applied to Zhou Zitan. Xu Xun picked it up and said, "I'll bandage it for you."
Shen Tingzhou: ...It's just a little skin breakage.
That tube of ointment is quite expensive, so don't waste it.
Xu Xun had already opened the ointment and raised his chin towards Shen Tingzhou, motioning him to sit down.
Shen Tingzhou had no choice but to sit down.
Xu Xun dipped the ointment on a cotton swab, then pulled Shen Tingzhou's hand and applied it to the scabby area.
To be honest, if I didn't look closely at this small scab, I would have thought it was a bigger mole.
Xu Xun was very serious, frowning and pursing his lips, but he applied the medicine very gently.
Shen Tingzhou looked at Xu Xun's handsome eyes and this scene reminded him of an old story.
That rainy night, Xu Xun showed a bit of weakness, but he did not remain a sickly cat.
As soon as the sky cleared, Xu Xun returned to his former sharp tongue and harshness.
Kangfu's training was not going well. Xu Xun's legs were not strong enough and he fell off the standing rack several times, cutting a long gash on his elbow.
When Shen Tingzhou passed by, he was sitting against the wall, blood dripping from his face, his brows furrowed. His expression could not be seen clearly, but his features seemed extremely cold and hard.
Looking at the blood on the floor, Shen Tingzhou's heart skipped a beat.
He walked quickly forward, opened the medical box and treated Xu Xun's wound.
Xu Xun was obviously in a bad mood, and Shen Tingzhou didn't dare to make any big moves because of the grudge he had against him that night during the rainstorm. He was extremely careful when cleaning the blood around the wound, for fear of irritating him.
Maybe because he was too nagging, Xu Xun looked over and said in a bland tone, "You didn't eat today?"
Shen Tingzhou choked him and thought to himself, I'm so sorry for you, little bastard.
Although he thought so in his mind, his medical ethics did not allow Shen Tingzhou to do so. He just returned to his usual pace and quickly disinfected, applied medicine, and bandaged the wound.
After doing all this, Shen Tingzhou stood up and left the back of his head to Xu Xun with a heart of stone.
However, this ruthlessness did not last long, as Shen Tingzhou's foot got caught on the straps of the stand.
Just at this moment the nutritionist brought lunch, and Shen Tingzhou staggered and fell headfirst into the plate.
Shen Tingzhou: ...
Nutritionist: …
Thanks to the fact that the nutritionist was a 1.85-meter-tall mixed-race man, Shen Tingzhou suddenly rushed over to try to extort money from him, but his hand holding the food tray was steady and at ease.
Although the plate was not turned over, it was something that was eaten after all, and Xu Xun was a very picky person.
Shen Tingzhou felt ashamed and embarrassed, and looked secretly at Xu Xun.
The other party was not as angry as he had imagined. Instead, there was a hint of smile in his eyes. "It seems you really haven't eaten."
Shen Tingzhou: ...
I have to say, Xu Xun was very annoying at that time. How could he be as amiable and approachable as he is now?
After applying the medicine, Xu Xun insisted on putting a Band-Aid on Shen Tingzhou.
Shen Tingzhou held him down, "Believe me, this is a bit unnecessary..."
Xu Xun opened his mouth, but finally gave up.
-
It was a rare opportunity to have a cat in the house, and Shen Tingzhou wanted to put it on the altar.
It was very late when Shen Tingzhou was so sleepy that he finally lay down on the bed.
Before going to bed, a question suddenly popped up in his mind - why did Xu Xun come tonight?
Soon Shen Tingzhou was no longer in the mood to think about this question because he touched the furry thing next to him.
Repair cat~~~
Shen Tingzhou stroked it happily for another half an hour until Xiaoyin gradually became impatient and hit him with its claws, and then Shen Tingzhou put it back.
After breakfast the next day, Shen Tingzhou went to Xu Xun's house with the cat in his arms.
As expected, the big cat was disgusted by the little cat and kept breathing at it.
The little cat was also unwilling to accept the defeat, so it took the initiative to show its claws and touch the big cat, and then was taught a lesson.
Such lovely creatures, why can't they squeeze together and flutter butterflies?
Shen Tingzhou carried them away with regret.
Putting little Yin Jianceng into the cage, Shen Tingzhou fed the big cat cat cat flakes.
While feeding, he told Xu Xun, "At times like this, we must appease the indigenous residents first."
Xu Xun said nothing.
Shen Tingzhou continued, "Let the indigenous residents know that even if there are kittens in their homes, they are the most pampered. This can reduce their rejection of kittens."
"If the big cat bullies the little cat, you can put the little cat in the cage and wait until the big cat gets used to its smell."
Xu Xun didn't say anything, and Shen Tingzhou looked over.
Xu Xun had a paralyzed handsome face and looked at Shen Tingzhou with a dim gaze.
Shen Tingzhou:?
How come you become a virgin again?
At this time, the housekeeper spoke up, "Doctor Shen, you may not know that our young master is the original resident of this family."
Shen Tingzhou: Then...feed Xu Xun a cat snack too?
The author has something to say:
Housekeeper (smiling): Today, young master, it’s another day of being a chaste man.
