Chapter 132. I ate a small dessert.
He has already apologized.
What else is there to say!
The Cat King is magnanimous and of course forgave him.
Shi Miao gave a dignified "hmm" and let Jiang Yingxu hold her for a while longer.
It had been so long that she suspected he was going to snuggle up to her and fall asleep, so she raised her hand and patted Jiang Yingxu's back.
I don't know what's wrong with him today.
Chest, back, thighs... the whole body was tense, like a fully drawn longbow, and everything felt hard and jarring to the touch.
She asked softly, "Jiang Yingxu, are you asleep?"
"……without."
Jiang Yingxu slightly tightened his arms, squeezing Shi Miao so much that she made a small "uh" sound, like a squashed kitten.
He seemed to chuckle.
A breath swept by.
As she spoke, her lips brushed lightly against the skin of his neck. "Are you tired of sitting?"
Shi Miao honestly replied, "I'm not tired."
After all, most of her weight was on Jiang Yingxu's legs, and his arms were supporting her lower back, so she didn't have to exert any effort herself.
Moreover, cats are naturally very flexible.
In cat form, when lying on the ground stretching, it can tilt its head back and touch its own tail. When playing with a cat toy, it jumps, hangs in the air, and rolls over in a series of movements, showing incredible agility and nimbleness.
Transform into human form.
The slight curve of her knees apart was not enough to make her feel tired.
Shi Miao asked in confusion, "Have you been feeling unwell for so long today?"
Jiang Yingxu hummed in agreement.
He spoke in a low, calm voice, "It might be even longer in the future."
"That's why I said in the beginning that it's a delusion of drinking poison to quench thirst..."
Before he could finish speaking...
With a sudden "Duang".
The system's physical light cluster bounced in from outside the door.
It can swear on its own power that it has absolutely no interest in the fussing and musinging of its host or its mission targets.
But they had no choice but to barge in to warn everyone: "A doctor has arrived."
Shi Miao paused, her eyes widening, and said in a flustered voice, "Wait, Jiang Yingxu, the system says someone is coming—"
She suddenly straightened up, preparing to get up, too quickly and too hastily.
Jiang Yingxu paused slightly, and before he could pull away, he felt soft skin brush against his cheek, and something soft and delicate bumped his chin.
The small bow was pressed down along with the collar, its edge scraping against the Adam's apple.
"..."
The two of them were both taken aback.
The system's little ball of light floated over from behind, still nagging and urging, "[What are you doing? I already told you someone's coming, why are you still entangled with Jiang Yingxu... Ouch!]"
Turn around and see the current situation of the two of them.
The system launched itself forward with a whoosh, like a ball that had been slapped away on a sports field, and spun back behind Shi Miao.
【or……】
The system pondered for a moment, then hesitated, suggesting, "How about I create some kind of hallway scare at the doctor's office, like the lights suddenly going out or the electronic screens flashing, to buy you some time?"
Shi Miao: [。]
I'll make you into a cat head!
The next second, Jiang Yingxu's arms were suddenly empty.
Without the support of a person, the skirt slumped down, and with a rustling sound, a long-haired, fluffy calico cat emerged from the loose neckline.
Shi Miao pressed down her little ears, her face flushed like a hot kitten, and meowed fiercely, calling for the system to come over.
Waving its little cat paws, it haphazardly stuffed the still-warm dress into the system's inventory.
He didn't even look at Jiang Yingxu.
Stepping on the snow-white quilt, her chubby little legs tumbled around, and she slipped to the head of the bed, her fur all fluffy.
It's cool here.
The cat is restless and wants to stay here for a while.
The system notification was timely; almost immediately, there was a knock on the ward door.
Jiang Yingxu pulled the blanket over himself, his posture calm, but his voice was deep, "Please come in."
The attending physician, wearing a white coat, walked in and said politely, "Hello, are you getting some rest? Your teacher said you might take a shower, and they'd like us to come and check on your wound tonight..."
The doctor stopped beside the hospital bed.
His gaze fell on Jiang Yingxu's face, and after a moment's hesitation, he asked with concern.
"Did you just take a hot shower? Or is the air conditioning too hot?"
"Shall I turn it down a bit for you?"
Otherwise, how could it be so hot?
Her earlobes were so red they looked almost bloodshot, and her lips appeared a pale red.
Jiang Yingxu's Adam's apple bobbed slightly as he swallowed almost imperceptibly.
"It might be due to the hot water."
He remained calm and composed, naturally changing the subject.
"I took a shower, but I was careful not to strain myself, so it shouldn't have affected the bandages or splints."
The doctor made two "oh" sounds, which diverted his attention, and he took a closer look at the man's outstretched right arm.
"It really had no impact."
"I heard you have to rush to the capital tomorrow to take an exam. Please take extra care of yourselves these next few days to avoid aggravating your injuries..."
Jiang Yingxu listened with his eyes lowered, occasionally responding with an "uh-huh".
Wait for the doctor to leave.
The ward fell silent again.
He paused for a moment, then tightened his fingers on his left hand resting on the blanket. Finally, he raised his hand and touched the chin, which still seemed to retain the warmth and softness of another person.
As I turned my head to look at the bedside, I happened to catch the kitten hiding in the shadow of the pillow, its gaze furtive.
An unexpected eye contact.
The kitten suddenly turned its head, leaving him with only a round, chubby little cat ball-like silhouette.
System sharing has been disabled.
Jiang Yingxu could no longer hear the conversation between Shi Miao and the system, and therefore had no idea what the system was whispering to the devil as it flew around the kitten.
What's there to be shy about?
The system drawled out the sound, like a big-eared donkey braying "werwer".
It was just a small dessert.
[Little Jiang bumped her milk.]
