Today is New Year's Day.
The sunlight above the winter snow is unusually warm, and the slightly warm sunlight of this season shines on the silly snowmen sitting in a row in front of the Light Spot Cat Cafe.
What’s different from the past is that there is a new snowman here with a pair of tree branches stuck on its head, which looks equally silly.
Guangdian Cat Cafe is closed today, and everyone has a rare day off.
Shen Cheng slumped on the sofa, staring at the ceiling with lifeless eyes.
No work, no tasks, it feels... so boring!
Wen Yuanyuan was supposed to live in the cat cafe, but today she took her mother who had just been discharged from the hospital to rent a house. Because of her treatment, Wen Yuanyuan's house had been sold a long time ago, and now Wen Yuanyuan is renting a house for her mother.
Wen Yuanyuan plans to rent a house in the western part of the city, which happens to be closer to the Guangdian Cat Cafe, making it convenient for her to visit and take care of her mother on weekdays.
Lingxue, wearing pajamas and with sleepy eyes, walked around in front of Shen Cheng. Shen Cheng reached out and hugged the petite Lingxue in his arms.
Lingxue struggled symbolically for a few times, and then sat obediently in Shen Cheng's arms with a "helpless look on her face".
"Hehe..." Seeing that Lingxue finally agreed to let him hug her, Chen Cheng couldn't help but reveal a perverted smile, causing Lingxue to shrink her neck.
Raising his hand and rubbing Lingxue's little head, Shen Cheng's face was full of satisfaction.
Mmm, soft and fragrant...
Looking at Lingxue's small ears that twitched from time to time, Chen Cheng smiled faintly, stretched out his finger, and gently poked it——
"Wow!" When Lingxue's ear was poked, she screamed like a cat whose tail was stepped on. Then she turned her head and glared at Chen Cheng, showing her little fangs and threateningly saying, "Don't touch my ears! Don't push your luck!"
"Haha..." Chen Cheng laughed awkwardly twice, then reached out and patted Lingxue on the head: "Okay, okay, it's my fault, sorry..."
"Hmph!" Lingxue then turned her head and continued to sit obediently in Shen Cheng's arms.
“Patta, patta…”
Chen Cheng, who was holding Lingxue and had nothing to do, turned his head and saw Ye Xi typing away on the keyboard beside him. He couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going to read anymore?"
Xue'er is now cleaning the house and doing housework. While Xue'er is busy, Ye Xi borrowed a computer from Xue'er.
Hearing this, Ye Xi said without even turning his head: "I have already read all the books at home."
“Uh…” Chen Cheng’s mouth twitched slightly: “How about I buy you some more?”
"No, I haven't helped you much at home. I can't let you spend money all the time. Just the phone you bought me already makes me feel bad." Ye Xi shook her head and replied, "I'm trying to make money on my own."
"Make money by yourself?" Shen Cheng was slightly stunned, and subconsciously said: "Don't do anything illegal."
“…” Ye Xi’s cheek twitched, and he turned the computer screen towards Chen Cheng, folding his arms and said, “I’m trying to write a novel.”
"Writing a novel?" Shen Cheng's eyes lit up and he looked over quickly.
"Hmm... "Starting as a Crow, I Become the Leader of the Outcasts in the World"..." Looking at the title of the book on the computer and the manuscript of several thousand words he had just written, Shen Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly.
I have to say that reading Ye Xi's books was not in vain. Just in these few thousand words of manuscripts, there are so many gorgeous words that it is overwhelming. The Chinese sentence structure is better than that used by him, a native Chinese.
"How is it? Not bad, right?" Ye Xi crossed her legs, hugged her arms, and looked at Chen Cheng proudly.
After pinching his chin and thinking for a moment, Chen Cheng suddenly suggested: "Why don't you try to write the story of me opening a shop? It will start from when I found the cheese. I have already thought of the title of the book, it's called "Opening a Shop, and then Picking Up a Cat-Eared Girl". What do you think?"
Without a second thought, Ye Xi grabbed the pillow beside her and slapped it on Shen Cheng's face: "Who wants to write a novel from your perspective? You wish!"
"Hey!" Ling Xue took the opportunity to jump out of Chen Cheng's arms, then ran away in a flash.
“Hey, Lingxue…” His arms felt empty, and Shen Cheng quickly reached out in the direction where Lingxue had escaped, a look of loss on his face.
The corner of Ye Xi's mouth twitched. This guy... It's ok for him to hug Yanyan and Xiaoqi on weekdays, but now he's extending his claws to Lingxue?
Lingxue is already seventeen years old! Is this really okay for you?
Taking his hand back, Shen Cheng looked at Ye Xi and said suddenly, "How about I buy you a laptop too?"
"Eh?" Ye Xi was stunned: "Didn't I tell you not to spend money on me..."
"Just pay me back when you earn enough money from the manuscript." Shen Cheng interrupted with a faint smile.
"..." After a moment of silence, Ye Xi turned her head, a faint blush flashing across her cheeks: "Then... let me think about it again."
"Buzz--" At this moment, Chen Cheng suddenly felt the phone in his pocket vibrate twice. He took out his phone and saw that it was a message from Hongguo.
Minase Haruka: Shen-kun! Happy New Year! [Image]
Haruka Minase, the silly girl from Rainbow Country who lost her wallet at the port of Ji City and spent a whole day in the police station.
In the picture, Haruka Minase is wearing a kimono, with her long chestnut hair tied up in a bun at the back of her head, and delicate light makeup on her face, giving her a bit of a Yamato Nadeshiko vibe.
With a smile, Shen Cheng sent a message in reply.
Chen Cheng: Xiaoyao, Happy New Year!
The moment the message was sent, Chen Cheng suddenly felt a chill on his back. He turned around and saw Lin Yuhui standing behind him with her arms folded, her eyes narrowed, and a kind face: "Oh? What a beautiful girl! Where did you pick her up, senior? And she keeps calling her Xiaoyao."
"Ahem..." Chen Cheng choked and quickly explained, "I met her at the port of Si City. I helped her find her wallet, and she is from Hong Country."
"Oh." Hearing this, Lin Yuhui finally breathed a sigh of relief. After all, no matter what, it was impossible for the senior to go to Hong Country to look for her, right?
At this moment, a petite figure trotted out of Shen Cheng's room, immediately attracting the attention of everyone present.
Meng Nian was seen wearing one of Chen Cheng's white hoodies and running out of Chen Cheng's room barefoot. Because Chen Cheng's size was a little too big for Meng Nian, the hoodie looked loose on her body, revealing half of her white shoulders, the sleeves were too long, and half of her bare calves were also exposed.
Lin Yuhui and Ye Xi both felt as if their hearts were hit by a sledgehammer and stood there in a daze.
Chen Cheng had a melted expression on his face, and quickly bent down and opened his arms towards Meng Nian: "Meng Nian, let me hug you~"
Meng Nian's little face was filled with smiles, and she trotted into Shen Cheng's arms.
Looking at Chen Cheng and Meng Nian, who were clinging to each other like father and daughter, Lin Yuhui suddenly said, "Senior, today happens to be a day off. Why don't you take Meng Nian to buy some clothes?"
Hearing this, Ye Xi, who was typing away on the keyboard, couldn't help but ask, "Meng Nian... doesn't seem to be afraid of the cold, right?"
