Chapter 371: Bullying of cute cats is prohibited 18
Mingnan shook his head, "I'm going to make a decision, you can't interfere with our cause and effect."
Ning Jue pursed her lips, "Then——"
"There is no danger. I know what I am doing and will do what I can. I will not confront anyone head on."
"Okay." Ning Jue felt relieved. "How long will it take?"
Another meaning of this sentence is when you will come back.
But she has turned back into a human. As a cat, she was Ning Jue's pet, so it was legitimate for her to come back. But after turning back into a human, what is her relationship with Ning Jue?
If we come back, won’t we just be living together?
So can this sentence be understood as an invitation to live together?
Mingnan looked at Ning Jue deeply.
Ning Jue also looked at her, his eyes open and clear.
Neither of them spoke, and a faint floral scent floated in the air.
In the end, Mingnan spoke first. She said, "I have rented a house for a long time. If I don't go back, the money will be wasted."
"Besides, I still have my own work to do. After I have settled my karma, I will probably go back to live there."
This is a tactful rejection, but it is not so firm and still leaves a glimmer of hope.
Ning Jue smiled and asked innocently, "What should I do? I bought a lot of cat food. If you don't come back, the cat food will be wasted. And your favorite canned food, cat flakes, and the cat park on the wall will also be wasted."
Mingnan followed his words and looked towards the cat park in the corner, and countless moments of the two of them together flashed through his mind.
We have only known each other for less than half a month, but it feels like a long, long time has passed.
She took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
Ning Jue added fuel to the fire and said, "I'll pay for your rent, but you have to finish eating this cat food. After that, I don't care where you want to go or what you want to do, okay?"
"Until you finish eating?" Mingnan looked at him suspiciously.
Ning Jue nodded, "Don't stop until you finish eating."
"Okay, it's a deal."
Mingnan raised her hand, Ning Jue immediately understood what she meant and clapped her hand.
“Pah—”
The deal was done with a high five.
Then Mingnan took the pile of clothes into the lounge on the first floor and started changing one by one.
All clothes, including underwear, fit perfectly.
Mingnan finally came out wearing a pair of loose jeans and a white V-neck short-sleeved shirt, with his long hair tied up, looking clean and capable.
Before leaving, Ning Jue gave her a card, and Mingnan didn't bother to be polite with him.
She won't be going home during this period, and staying in a hotel does cost a lot of money, but her mobile phone and wallet were confiscated by the agent, and she is now penniless.
She would write down how much she spent and return it to Ning Jue later.
It was difficult to get a taxi here, so Ning Jue called her driver to give her a ride.
Before leaving, Mingnan, who was sitting in the back seat, looked back through the car window and saw Ning Jue standing at the door, looking at her silently.
The sun was shining brightly, and butterflies were dancing in groups in the garden, making him seem even more lonely.
Mingnan suddenly stretched out his hand and waved, "Wait for me to come back!"
Ning Jue smiled and waved, "Be careful."
Mingnan retracted his gaze and rolled up the car window.
The driver stepped on the accelerator and the car immediately drove a long way away, gradually disappearing from Ning Jue's sight.
The next second, he picked up his phone and called Jin Lai, "Please buy something for me."
"Yes, that cat food from last time. Buy twenty more bags and put them in the storage room. Also, buy two more boxes of the cans I told you about..."
"When do you eat?"
Ning Jue looked at the blooming roses with a deep gaze and said with a smile, "Of course it's when she can't leave me anymore."
…
Leaving Ning Jue's mind reading range, 205 asked curiously: [Host, don't you like him? ]
Mingnan said frankly: [I like it.]
205 puzzled: [Why didn't you just say you wanted to stay? ]
Mingnan asked back: [So do you think he likes me? ]
205 thought for a while and said: [From his behavior, it seems that he likes it.]
Mingnan: [But he hasn't confessed yet, which shows that his love is still a little lacking. However, he is really smart and knows what I am worried about, so he uses the excuse of cat food to keep me. In this way, he is trying to keep Nannan, not Mingnan. I can then agree to it as a cat.]
205: [Ah... You humans are so complicated. I can't understand you.]
Mingnan smiled and said, "Relationships are meant to be a back-and-forth process. When both parties are willing, this is a kind of fun that can better promote the relationship. So you don't have to understand, as long as he understands."
She fiddled with her new phone, logged into WeChat, and approved Ning Jue's friend request.
As soon as I passed, Ning Jue sent me a photo.
Mingnan clicked on it and saw that the background of the photo was a deep cold green, dotted with a few roses in full bloom, some white and some pink, exuding vitality.
In the lower center of the picture, there is a large white hand, loosely holding a red rose. The contrast between red and white is very sharp, creating a deep and cold beauty.
Mingnan: [It looks great, but did you go to prune the roses? ]
Ning Jue: [The rose in the crystal bottle has withered, change it for a new one.]
Crystal bottle...
Mingnan remembered that she had picked up a rose from outside and Ningjue put it in a crystal vase.
This person always uses these little tricks to bring back her memories.
Mingnan pinched his chin and typed back: [Only one? Will the flower feel lonely? ]
Ning Jue: [The other party is inputting...]
Two seconds later—
Ning Jue: [The other party is inputting...]
A few seconds later, Ning Jue sent an emoji of a cat covering its face and crying.
Mingnan leaned back in the back seat and laughed, covering his mouth.
After a while, Ning Jue sent a message: [The flowers are in pairs, so I am the only one who is lonely, right? ]
Mingnan: [Then you can keep the flowers company. ]
Ning Jue: [Goodbye.jpg]
…
After entering the city center, Mingnan asked the driver to find a place to drop him off.
Because Ning Jue had instructed, the driver drove his own car, so he would be inconspicuous wherever he went and would not be noticed.
Mingnan is not a household name, and no one can recognize him in a crowd with a mask and a hat on.
She dragged her suitcase and went to an ATM to withdraw some cash, then contacted the Demon Management Bureau, saying that she had lost her ID card.
She is a demon with a special identity, and her ID card is specially made. If it is lost, she needs to apply for a new one immediately.
The Monster Management Bureau is only responsible for processing the identities of monsters, so the process is very fast.
Mingnan went to the branch to have her photo taken for identity verification, and within an hour her new ID was ready.
After she finished, the person in charge asked: "How could such an important thing be lost? Or did something happen? You can tell us and we will help you."
Mingnan smiled and said, "It really was just lost. I might have dropped it somewhere when I was out and about."
Because Mingnan's file was clean and she had no criminal record, the person in charge didn't ask any more questions and just waved her away, "Be careful next time."
