Zhao You: “!”
She turned around in a hurry and saw Yu Zhao's dark face. She was immediately embarrassed and guilty, and apologized: "I'm sorry, I heard some noise and came over to take a look..."
Yu Zhao didn't say anything. When she came out, he immediately closed the door and raised his eyes: "You just came back, you should go find a place to stay first, right? There are hotels in the city center, but they are too far away, so I won't go with you."
Zhao You could tell that she was trying to chase them away, but he didn't feel upset - the girl in the room was already prepared to that extent, and she still didn't leave. Did she want to stay and watch? Judging from the other party's reaction, maybe the two of them were preparing to make love before she came, but she interrupted them as soon as she came... Damn it, disturbing other people's love will be struck by lightning!
Zhao You, who was very self-conscious, nodded quickly: "Okay, then we'll go there by ourselves and talk later."
After saying that, she ran out of the door with her son and closed the door tightly.
Yu Zhao's expression relaxed, and he walked forward to lock the door.
Bo Chi was still lying on the bed in the room. When he saw her coming in, he said with watery eyes, "I, I didn't go out."
Yu Zhao knelt on the bed, rubbed her fluffy tail slowly, lowered his head and kissed her lips, and said softly: "I know, it was Sister Zhao and the others who were disobedient. Taotao is the most obedient."
Bo Chi smiled sweetly and put his arms around her neck.
The catnip was quite potent. Bo Chi and Yu Zhao stayed close to each other for a long time. Finally, in the evening, they came out of their trance-like state and said stupidly, "I seemed to see Sister Zhao coming back in my dream. She brought her child with her. The child looked like a genius prodigy who went to college at the age of seven and got a doctorate at the age of ten."
Yu Zhao sat on the bed, put her big tail on his legs, held a comb in his hand, and patiently combed the white fur that he had messed up when he was close to her. Hearing this, he said, "It's not a dream. Sister Zhao has indeed returned to China. I haven't paid much attention to her children. If you like, I'll take you to visit her tomorrow."
When Bo Chi regained consciousness, his first reaction was to grab the hem of Yu Zhao's clothes and said aggrievedly, "I don't want to leave, I don't want to go back, you are not allowed to leave me."
Yu Zhao was still worried that she was in love with her master, but he relaxed his brows after hearing this: "You are my lover, how could I give you away? They treat you as a pet, but I always treat you as my wife. But you are Sister Zhao's cat, we have to find a way to make her give you up. It's definitely not possible to tell her directly. If one more person knows your secret, I'm afraid you will be in more danger."
Bo Chi leaned on her shoulder lovingly. In fact, as long as Yu Zhao didn't give up on her, she had nothing to fear. She relaxed and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Yu Zhao pondered and said, "Sister Zhao cares a lot about her child. Tomorrow I will take your real body to find her. You can find a chance to scare the child. As long as the child is scared when he sees you, Sister Zhao will most likely not take you back."
Bo Chi's eyes lit up, and he smiled like a little devil: "Okay, bullying children is my best skill!"
Yu Zhao flicked her head with his finger and reminded her, "Don't go too far. At most you can scare him, but don't hurt him."
Bo Chi said confidently: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"
After finishing their business, they chatted for a while in the private words of lovers, and after washing up, they fell asleep in each other's arms, their black hair intertwined.
At dawn, the sun rises, the gorgeous morning glow stretches across the sky, and the morning light begins to shine on the earth.
Bo Chi turned back into a ragdoll cat, stretched out his cat paws and put on cat clothes, then was carried out by Yu Zhao.
They went to the place Zhao You mentioned and found that the other party had not found a house yet and was living in a hotel. As soon as they entered the main entrance of the hotel, the laughter of the front desk staff immediately attracted their attention.
"...They really look alike. If I hadn't known that Su Zhuo was still single, I would have really thought it was his child."
"I've never heard that my idol is married. Why does he have a kid who looks so much like him?"
“They are just like each other!”
"It's just that the name is a little funny. What does Erzai mean? Why not Wangzai?"
"Forgot your cub's milk? Haha."
Yu Zhao passed by holding a kitten. In the elevator, he opened his phone thoughtfully and searched for the word "Su Zhuo".
Bo Chi grabbed her phone and squeezed his furry little head over, insisting on watching it with her.
After looking at Su Zhuo's photo, Yu Zhao said softly, "It should be his child."
Bo Chi was surprised: "Meow?"
Yu Zhao rubbed her head. "Sister Zhao was afraid that her child would be taken away from her, and she was also afraid that she would be in danger if the matter was exposed. He is a star with a huge fan base. If they really wanted to take the child away, Sister Zhao, a small employee, would definitely not be able to resist. When the fans get angry, we don't know what they will do. With both of these key reasons, plus their similar appearances, I guess this is probably the truth of the matter."
She analyzed it in a logical and detailed manner. Bo Chi followed her words and suddenly recalled the name Su Zhuo that he heard in the bar that night. He immediately became confident and looked at Yu Zhao with admiration.
Zhao You knew that they would be back today and was already waiting in front of the elevator.
As soon as the elevator door opened, she rushed over with tears in her eyes, trying to snatch the kitten from Yu Zhao's hands.
Yu Zhao turned around, avoiding her dirty hands, stepped into the corridor, and asked, "Where is the room?"
Zhao You hurriedly caught up with them, and while leading them into the house, he kept saying, "Let me touch it, let me touch it! I haven't petted a cat in years!"
Yu Zhao pretended not to hear and held his wife in his arms, refusing to let her touch him.
After entering the room, Erzai, who was doing his homework, raised his head, stood up and said politely, "Hello, Aunt Yu."
Yu Zhao hummed, put the thin wings on the ground, and said to the little boy: "I have something to talk to your mother, you and sister cat go to the room to play, okay?"
Zhao You couldn't help but say, "What else do we have to talk about? Didn't we almost finish what we talked about yesterday? I just want to pet my cat now!"
Yu Zhao held her shoulders and said to Erzai again, "Go."
The little boy looked at his mother who was held down by one hand, then looked at the sweet doll walking towards the bedroom with cat steps, and finally picked up the docile puppy and chased after the kitten.
Zhao You burst into tears and said, "It's obviously my cat, why can you suck it, my son can suck it, but I can't!"
Yu Zhao: "Don't compare yourself to a child. By the way, is your son's father Su Zhuo?"
Zhao You's pupils trembled: "How did you know?!"
Yu Zhao: "It was just a random guess. Now it seems that I guessed correctly."
Zhao You’s expression froze.
They were chatting outside. Bo Chi pushed the door open with his head, jumped onto the table and looked at Erzai.
This 'genius prodigy' looked about four or five years old this year. He hugged the dog and closed the door. He looked more mature than the average child, but still had the innocence of a child. He stood by the table, looked up at Bo Chi for a while, and asked, "Can I touch you?"
Bo Chi thought about it and stretched out a furry paw towards him.
Erzai's eyes lit up, and he naively stood on tiptoe and reached out to touch her.
When it was about to touch him, Bo Chi suddenly retracted his claws, raised them to his sides, extended his claws with a cold glow, and roared like a tiger with a fierce look on his face: "Awoo!"
The two cubs were stunned.
Just when Bo Chi was feeling proud of herself for successfully scaring him, she saw the kid's eyes light up and he imitated her and said, "Awooo!"
Bo Chi: “…”
This didn't scare you?
Damn it, he is worthy of being the heroine’s son!
Bo Chi kept up his efforts, jumping up and down, imitating a dog and pretending to be a tiger, and finally succeeded... and turned the silly puppy into one of the howling ones.
Looking at the happy faces of the little kid and the dog, Bo Chi's smile gradually disappeared.
What's going on?
Is there something wrong with this development?
Bo Chi began to doubt his life and was filled with anger. Seeing that the curtains and the door were tightly closed, he revealed a face like a vicious female supporting role, crawled into the bed, poked his head out, and waved to Erzai like a lucky cat.
The second child's eyes were shining as he played, and he came closer holding the dog.
Bo Chi smiled at him and suddenly retracted his head into the quilt.
Erzai was indeed curious and reached out to lift the quilt. As soon as he opened a gap, a face with disheveled hair suddenly rushed out, like a female ghost crawling out of the TV, and walked straight in front of him.
Three seconds later.
A loud cry accompanied by the barking of a dog startled Zhao You who was outside the door. Zhao You hurried in, hugged his son who was crying breathlessly and tried to comfort him, while looking up and looking around.
There were no dangerous objects around, only a sweet-looking rag doll that moved out from under the quilt, lying there with its two cat paws in its lap and an innocent look on its face.
"Cat, cat-person." Ercub leaned on his mother's arms, sobbing and wiping his tears, pointing at Bo Chi fearfully and said, "It's, it's the sister from yesterday, the one who can turn into a cat!"
Zhao You stared blankly at the kitten, and seeing it licking its fur as if nothing had happened, Zhao You touched her son's head and said helplessly, "The sister yesterday was not a cat, and she is not a person who can turn into a cat. The ears and tail are fake... Well, don't worry about it, kid. Come on, tell mom, why did you cry just now? Did you fall somewhere?"
Erzai shook his head and continued to point at Bochi aggrievedly: "It's my sister who's scary."
Zhao You pressed his hand down: "I've already said that cats are cats and sisters are sisters, why do you always mix them up?"
Erzai became anxious and tried hard to describe what he saw. Zhao You just laughed and didn't believe it at all.
Bo Chi stood up slowly and moved towards them briskly.
Zhao You showed joy on his face and reached out to catch her, but Erzai's eyes were filled with fear and he started crying again.
Bo Chi tried several times and found that he had finally scared the child. He felt guilty and relieved at the same time and ran happily to Yu Zhao's feet.
Yu Zhao bent down and held her in his arms. After Zhao You coaxed Erzai, he followed him out of the bedroom and said, "Erzai and Taotao don't seem to get along."
Zhao You said bitterly, "Maybe our family is not blessed with a cat... Oh, you should take Taotao away. After so many years, the time I spent raising her is less than a fraction of yours. I'm afraid she has long forgotten me and only thinks of you as her master."
"Actually, after having my son and three puppies, I don't have any regrets. I came back to see Taotao this time just because I couldn't let go of my thoughts." Zhao You said frankly: "Now that you take such good care of it, I have no worries. Instead of seeing the second pup crying for no reason, I might as well give it to you officially."
Yu Zhao curved his lips and said, "Thank you, Sister Zhao. Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of her for the rest of my life."
Zhao You: “?”
This is the logic, why does it sound weird?
Yu Zhao was very happy that his biggest worry was solved, and he gave Zhao You 10,000 yuan from his savings on the spot.
Zhao You declined, so she said, "I prepared this money a long time ago. It's not only to thank you for trusting me and letting me adopt the cat, but also to thank you for buying Taotao, which gave me and Taotao a chance to meet."
Zhao You: “???”
This sounds even weirder!
Why do you make her sound like a matchmaker?
Zhao You was puzzled, but she couldn't refuse and had to take the money. After inviting the other party to have lunch, she personally saw Yu Zhao off.
When she was returning to the hotel, she bumped into someone at the door. Just as she was about to apologize, she saw the man lift up the brim of his hat, revealing eyes that looked exactly like Erzai's. He stared at her and said, "I found you, my runaway sweetheart."
Zhao You opened his eyes wide.
**
That morning, Bo Chi lay on Yu Zhao's body, and took out her mobile phone from under the pillow while she was half asleep. She was just planning to check the time, but when the screen lit up, overwhelming push notifications occupied her eyes like a bombardment, and each one contained the words "Su Zhuo" or "Zhao You".
Bo Chi came to his senses a little more. He clicked on them one by one and found that the fact that Zhao You and Su Zhuo had a child was completely exposed. When he traced the source, he found that it was a Weibo post by the famous star Su Zhuo who officially announced his relationship with Zhao You.
Wow, are they really acting in an idol drama here?
Bo Chi was amazed and found that Yu Zhao was awake, so he went over to eat the melon with her.
The two of them discussed for a while while browsing Weibo, and then called Zhao You to ask if he needed any help. As soon as the call was connected, before Zhao You could speak, a male voice roared, "You have been teasing me, right?! I have been a clown from the beginning to the end! I am your entertainment!"
"What did I do wrong that you treat me like this? Yes, I was ignorant before and often fooled around with other women, but why couldn't you wait until I changed my ways, and instead turned around and did the next one? You never loved me, right!"
"Zhao You, Zhao You, I beg you, I was wrong, okay? I really love you, please come back, I swear to be nice to you - you, you are that celebrity? Zhao You's real boyfriend? I, I will kill you, you bastard who stole my woman!"
"Ah!" Zhao You suddenly screamed, and said in panic: "Su Zhuo! Su Zhuo, don't die. I haven't settled the official account with you yet, you can't die!"
"It's okay... I'm fine. I've already chased him away. You are my woman, and no one can hurt you without me..." Another voice said intermittently: "My only regret is probably that I failed to capture your heart and make you willingly marry me, Zhao You. If there is a next life..."
"I will marry you!" Zhao You cried, "Don't say anything, you will be fine. When you are well, I will marry you!"
Separated by a mobile phone, Bo Chi and Yu Zhao listened to this poignant conversation word for word.
After staring at each other for two seconds, Bo Chi spoke first: "It seems something happened over there."
Yu Zhao: “Yeah.”
Bo Chi: "Did you call 120?"
Yu Zhao: "You were crying so hard, you must have forgotten."
Bo Chi quickly took out his cell phone and started dialing 120 urgently.
Yu Zhaoze said to Zhao You who ignored her, "I'm hanging up now," and then called the police to report Mei Lei for assaulting someone with a weapon.
When the hero and heroine are immersed in the separation of life and death.
No one knows that two unknown passers-by are behind the scenes, worrying about whether this love will succeed.
After this incident, Mei Lei went to prison for intentional injury. It is said that he had been begging Zhao You to come back and see him for the last time, but Zhao You was obviously no longer hanged on a tree like in the original book. She was Su Zhuo's caregiver in the hospital, personally helping him wash his face and feed him. In just a few days, their relationship made rapid progress and they achieved the fashionable achievement of marriage first and love later.
Bo Chi and Yu Zhao went to visit her several times and were very pleased to see that she was happy.
When Su Zhuo's injuries improved and Chenggong and Zhao You fell in love with each other, Bo Chi thought their story should end. As a result, a year later, when they were about to get married, the vicious mother-in-law suddenly appeared and refused to let them be together.
At the same time, various cannon fodder characters appear one after another, such as the childhood sweetheart, the beautiful actress who acts with Su Zhuo, the one who falls in love with Zhao You at first sight, and the handsome blond guy who is chased to China.
Apart from living their own lives, Bo Chi and Yu Zhao would just watch and eat the show in amazement every day.
This melon has been eaten for decades. When Zhao You and Su Zhuo were old and still quarreling over a photo of Zhao You and Mei Lei that had been sealed for many years, Bo Chi leaned on Yu Zhao's shoulder and said from the bottom of his heart: "If this is a novel with Zhao You as the heroine, then the number of words in this book must have reached tens of millions, and I am sure that the author has not finished writing it yet."
Yu Zhao chuckled, his voice old and slow, but the gentleness in his tone was the same as before: "Why do you say that?"
"Because Erzai has lost his memory!" Bo Chi has experienced the passing of time, and the only thing that remains unchanged is his youthful mentality: "Amnesia is a standard feature in CEO novels. I guess the author will definitely let Erzai fall in love with a commoner girl, and then forget her after regaining his memory and refuse to admit it. Then there will be a long process of heartbreak and physical torture. What do you think? Do you want to take a gamble?"
Yu Zhao smiled, feeling the vitality in his body gradually dissipating, and opened his mouth with difficulty: "Even if I bet now, I won't see that day."
"It's okay." Bo Chi held her hand and smiled brightly: "I will tell you the correct answer when I see you in the next life!"
Yu Zhao slowly closed his eyes and said with a smile: "Okay."
**
Midsummer, evening, heavy rain.
In the aristocratic district, in the back garden of the Yu family villa, a young girl was lying on the mud, surrounded by withered flowers beaten by the heavy rain, and not far away was an overturned wheelchair.
The girl was wearing thin clothes, her long wet hair stuck to her face, her head lowered, her hands grasping the dirt, her legs dragging limply behind her, moving as she moved forward bit by bit.
There was a sudden thunderclap, and white light illuminated the garden. The girl suddenly looked up, her eyes were already distracted, but she still tried to focus and looked at the uninvited guest in front of her.
That person didn't seem to be a member of the family... nor did she seem to be a ghost worshipped by the family. Her figure was illusory, and she was wrapped in a white cloak that was too large for her. Her entire face was hidden in the hood, making it impossible to see her features at all.
It was already midnight and the surroundings were pitch black. Only a faint light lingered around her, like the sun in the night.
"Yu Zhao." She suddenly spoke with a smile in her voice: "You lost the bet."
Yu Zhao, lying on the ground in a panic, clenched his hands and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean by this, senior?"
The ‘senior’ did not explain, and continued, “Once upon a time, there was an ordinary girl who, by chance, fell in love with a domineering president who had lost his memory. After they got married, the girl became the wife of a wealthy family.”
Yu Zhao listened vigilantly, her mind turning, and she easily saw through the fairy tale shell, identifying each character with the person they were in - she was originally an ordinary girl who could not resonate with any ghosts. After being recognized by her family by coincidence, she became the young master of a spiritual family.
"The good times didn't last long. The overbearing president recovered his memory and forgot about his past with the girl. The girl fell off a cliff from the clouds and suffered more than before."
Yu Zhao gritted her teeth, her fingers sinking deeply into the mud. The good times didn’t last long. The elders who recognized her found out that it was a misunderstanding and she was not the descendant of the former patriarch at all. She fell from the clouds to the cliff. Not only was she treated with contempt and ridicule, but even her legs were broken by her former enemies. Her life was even more difficult than when she was in the slums.
"Every point is exactly as I guessed." Senior said in a light tone: "So you still lost the last bet to me."
Yu Zhao pulled the corners of his lips and revealed a miserable smile.
She had indeed lost, completely. For three years, she had shown respect to the elders, been gentle and helpful to her peers, and been humble and caring to her friends. In the end, all she had lost was because of an identity!
She tried to treat everyone with sincerity and bet on being a qualified young master, but perhaps she was destined to lose from the beginning.
Yu Zhao closed his eyes, suppressed the resentment and hatred in his heart, and said calmly: "Senior, you are right, I lost. Senior, are you coming here now to finish me off?"
She no longer had any support, and the only ones left in front of her were her enemies.
However, the 'senior' exclaimed in surprise, "No, I'm using my ultimate move to save you, but it takes too long to charge up, and I can't touch you, so I can't pick you up. I can only talk to you from the side."
Yu Zhao was stunned when he heard it, and almost suspected that he had heard it wrongly.
She pursed her lips. Although she knew she shouldn't do that, her heart still beat a little: "Senior, you want to save me? Why do you want to save me? Do you and I know each other? Why don't you take off your hood?"
Having reached the end of his rope, Yu Zhao no longer hesitated or took ten steps at a time, but just asked directly if he had anything he wanted to ask.
The 'senior' shook his head slightly: "I can't take off my hat. I am now communicating with ghosts. My ultimate skill is to stabilize your soul fire, which is also a blood lock. The side effect is that my face cannot be seen, otherwise I will die on the spot."
Yu Zhao's pupils suddenly shrank, and he blurted out: "Why did you tell me such a deadly secret?!"
Every person who can communicate with ghosts has a fatal flaw. Even a three-year-old child knows that this flaw must not be told to outsiders. But, this unknown "senior" in front of her actually told her such an important thing without reservation. Yu Zhao was stunned and a look of doubt appeared on her face. She even wondered if she was in a hallucination before death and had imagined such a person who was willing to respond to her trust.
The next second, the heat from her chest brought her back to reality. Her soul fire, which had been so broken that it could be blown out at any time, miraculously stabilized, as if it was wrapped in a pair of soft hands, protecting her from the wind and rain, and from the cold and suffering.
Yu Zhao's heart skipped a beat, and he looked up instinctively, only to see that the white light on the 'senior' suddenly dimmed a few degrees and became gray, not as warm and bright as before.
"The ultimate skill consumes a bit of mana." The voice of the 'senior' was erratic, and he said with all his might: "I can't maintain the spiritual state anymore, and I can't talk to you anymore. Don't be afraid, don't despair, wait for me to wake up... wait for me to wake up..."
Before he could finish his words, the figure of the 'senior' suddenly dispersed, and the tiny dots of light fluttered like fireflies, and soon went out.
The garden became dark again, heavy rain poured down on us, and the surroundings were cold and damp. The scene just now seemed like just a dream.
But Yu Zhao knew it wasn't the case.
Her mud-stained hand wanted to touch her heart, but stopped before it did. In the end, she just quietly and cherished the warmth in her heart, and thought vaguely - she knew this was not a dream, and just now, there really was a ray of light that gave her hope of life.
The author has something to say: I have been busy with the three-dimensional world recently, and the update will be reduced to 3,000 words starting tomorrow... Well, if there are too many things to do later and I don't have time to update, I will post a leave note~
