Chapter 119 The Movie Emperor's Little Cat Darling 3
"Let's see if you can climb this high again."
Yunzhen broke free from his hand and headed straight for the tablet.
Gu Huaiye was a little worried. He didn't expect that the cat would become addicted to the internet so soon after it started using it.
He began to regret letting her access the phone.
He squatted down in front of Yunzhen and said earnestly, "Let me tell you, looking at your phone all the time is bad for your eyes, so let's limit our screen time each day, okay?"
Yunzhen turned around, her backside facing him, and as she moved, her fluffy tail brushed against his face.
It was itchy, as if it were brushing against his heart.
Gu Huaiye's hands were itching to grab this tail and give it a good rub.
He suppressed the urge, squatted down in a different direction, and continued, "Playing on a phone too much is bad for a cat's eyes. Over time, it will go blind and become blind. Do you know what it means to not be able to see? It means when you close your eyes. Try it, close your eyes, can't you see anything? When you play on your phone too much, it will become like that."
Gu Huaiye's tone was completely like treating the kitten in front of him as a child, coaxing and persuading him gently.
Yunzhen looked at her like she was an idiot, then turned her head again, continuing to face him with her backside.
Gu Huaiye didn't give up, so he squatted down in a different direction and continued talking.
He didn't consider that there was no need to spoil a cat like that; he could have just taken it away.
Yunzhen patted the tablet, indicating that it was a tablet, not a phone.
"Tablets are the same; they're just larger phones that you stare at for long periods of time..."
Gu Huaiye kept going, beep beep beep beep, he just couldn't stop.
Who would have thought that Gu Huaiye, who was always aloof and taciturn, would have so much to say to a kitten? It's a pity that no one else saw this scene.
Yunzhen's head was spinning from all the nagging, and she couldn't stand watching the tablet anymore. Helpless, she got up, walked to the other side, and lay down, completely giving up on the tablet.
Gu Huaiye's lips curled into a smile as he looked thoughtfully at the kitten that was still facing him with its back to him, then put the tablet into the drawer.
He got up and looked out the window. Seeing that the sun was already setting, he said, "Little one, I'm going out for a bit. You stay home and wait for me to come back, okay?"
He gave his phone to the kitten and now he has to buy a new one.
Although the kitten isn't currently in use, once it's given to her, it's given to her, and Gu Huaiye doesn't intend to take it back.
In addition, we need to buy some cat-friendly food and cat supplies again, and clean up the cat's playroom as soon as possible.
go out?
Yunzhen's ears twitched, and she quickly got up and ran to Gu Huaiye's side, preparing to climb onto him again.
Gu Huaiye quickly stopped her and pulled her into his arms.
It was a soft, gentle ball of flesh, like holding a wad of cotton, or a cloud falling into his arms. Gu Huaiye unconsciously slowed his breathing.
He took a deep breath, suppressing the inexplicable distracting thoughts in his mind.
"What do you want? Why are you trying to climb on me again?"
Yunzhen pointed outside the door.
"You want to go out too?"
Yunzhen nodded.
"No, it's too dangerous outside. Can you stay home and be a good girl?"
As he spoke, he was about to put Yunzhen on the sofa.
He still remembered how timid she was when she first arrived, and it wouldn't be good if he took her out rashly and she got frightened.
Yunzhen used one paw to cling tightly to Gu Huaiye's sleeve, while the other paw pointed towards the door and then to the drawer where the tablet was placed.
The meaning is clear: either take her out with you, or give the tablet back to her.
Gu Huaiye hesitated.
It was impossible for him to return the tablet; he didn't want the little guy to suffer any harm.
But going outside...
“Aren’t you scared? There are a lot of people and cars outside. You should remember how scary it was outside when you were brought here.”
Yunzhen shook her head, indicating that she wasn't afraid.
Gu Huaiye met her emerald green eyes, and that green seemed to bloom directly in his heart.
He eventually gave in.
"Alright then, I'll take you out, but if you get scared, just remind me and I'll bring you back right away. You can scratch me or bite me if you want."
After saying that, he stared intently at Yun Zhen until she nodded again, at which point Gu Huaiye finally decided to take her out with him.
Lu Huan is always very determined to get a pet and prepares very thoroughly. When she brought the kitten over, she also brought all these things with her.
Gu Huaiye found a cat leash, gently tied it on Yun Zhen, then carried her out the door in his arms, putting on a mask before leaving.
Since he had the cat with him, Gu Huaiye didn't plan to go far and simply walked to the supermarket at the entrance of the residential area.
Yun Zhen was held in Gu Huaiye's arms, her head slightly peeking out from his embrace as she curiously looked around.
The view is filled with lush greenery, which casts dappled light and shadow on the road, interspersed with individual villas.
Gu Huaiye carried Yun Zhen as they walked slowly along the road, with a few cars occasionally passing by.
"How are you? Are you settling in?"
Gu Huaiye asked in a low voice. His attention was focused on the kitten in his arms. His body was slightly tense. He was ready to rush home as soon as he noticed anything amiss with her.
Yunzhen shook her head and continued looking around.
Although there were no particularly special buildings in sight, the scenery was quite different from the previous two worlds, so she didn't find it boring.
Gu Huaiye felt a little relieved and continued walking forward. Soon, he arrived at the supermarket.
Gu Huaiye pushed a shopping cart, but did not put Yun Zhen in it. He still held her and pushed the cart with one hand.
He held the little thing for only this short distance, but he couldn't bear to put it down. He felt that the little thing in his arms was too soft, so soft that it touched his heart.
Yunzhen didn't care.
It's naturally more comfortable to be held than to walk by yourself or stay in a shopping cart with things inside.
The supermarket wasn't crowded, but Gu Huaiye's arrival still attracted the attention of people nearby.
Even though he was wearing a mask that covered most of his face, his tall figure and unique temperament were still impossible to ignore.
His hair was slightly messy, with a few stray strands falling casually across his forehead, adding to his relaxed demeanor.
His exposed brow bone was deep, his eyebrows were long and thick, slightly upturned, with a touch of heroism and a touch of exquisiteness. His eyes were slightly upturned at the corners, his eyelashes were thick and long, and his gaze was full of indifference.
However, when he looked down at the kitten in his arms, the coldness in his eyes melted instantly, replaced by a tender focus.
The cat he was holding was more eye-catching than him.
Its fur is soft and glossy, with white, orange, and black colors interwoven perfectly. Its emerald green pupils are like two sparkling gems, shimmering under the light.
The two, one human and one cat, create a natural and exquisite picture.
Gu Huaiye was already used to such looks. He pushed the shopping cart with a leisurely pace.
Fortunately, almost all the customers in the supermarket were from the same neighborhood, and no one abruptly approached or disturbed them.
Yunzhen turned her head and looked at the dazzling array of goods on the shelves.
Looking at the colorful packaging, Yunzhen felt a surge of craving.
She has always had a sweet tooth and hasn't eaten these snacks since leaving the first world, so it's understandable that she's feeling craving them now.
Her claws unconsciously scratched lightly on Gu Huaiye's arm, and she subconsciously let out a few "meows" in her throat.
Gu Huaiye quickly patted her to comfort her.
"These kittens are not to be eaten."
As he spoke, he quickly walked past the snack area.
Yunzhen sighed regretfully.
How did she become a cat? It's so annoying.
Gu Huaiye brought Yun Zhen to the seafood section, intending to buy some fish and shrimp suitable for cats.
The umami flavor wafted straight into Yunzhen's nose.
She twitched her beard, feeling hungry again.
Just then, a familiar voice came from behind: "Huaiye, here to buy groceries again?"
Gu Huaiye turned around.
His agent, Yan Shuyi, was standing behind him, also pushing a cart.
Yan Shuyi is about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. He has regular and dignified features. Although he is not particularly handsome, he is the kind of person who grows on you the more you look at him. He is very approachable.
He and Gu Huaiye lived in adjacent residential areas, and because this supermarket had a wide variety of goods, they often came here to shop.
At this moment, he noticed Yun Zhen in Gu Huaiye's arms and was immediately surprised, "You have a cat?"
The two had worked together for many years, and Yan Shuyi knew very well that the other party did not like small animals.
However, after seeing the kitten's specific appearance, Yan Shuyi understood it a bit more.
There's no other reason than that this cat is simply too beautiful, especially its eyes, which seem to strike straight to the soul when they look at you; even the most resolute person cannot resist them.
Gu Huaiye nodded. "Mm."
Yan Shuyi had grown accustomed to his taciturn nature and focused her attention on Yun Zhen, reaching out to stroke her.
"What an adorable kitten."
Gu Huaiye moved to the side, avoiding his hand.
"She doesn't like being touched by strangers."
Yunzhen promptly retracted her extended fingernail.
Yan Shuyi regretfully withdrew her hand. "Alright, what's her name?"
Gu Huaiye paused, only then realizing that he hadn't named the little guy yet.
“Her name is…” Gu Huaiye looked down at Yun Zhen, his expression solemn, “Xiao Hua, I suppose.”
No sooner had he finished speaking than Yunzhen slapped him hard with her claws.
Gu Huaiye quickly lowered his head and coaxed, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I misspoke. Your name isn't Xiaohua. You can choose whatever name you like, okay? I won't pick one randomly again, don't be angry."
Yan Shuyi looked strange. They had known each other for many years, but she never expected that Gu Huaiye would have this side to him.
However, if he owned a cat like that, he would probably be just as impressive.
Yan Shuyi looked at the calico cat with a hint of envy in her eyes.
After Gu Huaiye had said enough nice things, Yun Zhen let him go for the time being and nestled back into his arms.
"Huaiye, your cat is so smart."
A hint of wariness flashed in Gu Huaiye's eyes, and he subconsciously hugged Yun Zhen even tighter.
"If you want to keep a cat, go and buy one yourself."
Yan Shuyi resisted the urge to roll her eyes. "No need. I'm so busy right now, I don't have time to keep a pet."
"However, you'll be participating in the recording of 'Rural Memories' in two weeks. What will you do with this cat then?"
"Rural Memories" is a slow-paced, healing variety show that invites different celebrities to participate and showcase their rural daily lives.
The recording of the program will last for half a month, which is a bit long. Since Gu Huaiye's family never hires a nanny, Yan Shuyi is a little worried about this beautiful kitten.
Gu Huaiye then remembered this detail and said without hesitation, "Reject it."
Yan Shuyi couldn't help but roll her eyes this time.
"This was already agreed upon a long time ago, the production team has already started promoting it, and now your fans are also looking forward to it."
Gu Huaiye debuted three years ago and reached his peak right from the start. His first movie was a huge hit, and he has never come down from that peak since. His fan base is particularly impressive.
However, apart from filming on set, he doesn't do any other promotional activities, remaining unmoved no matter how much his fans fuss.
The Gu family behind him is also a behemoth, so even if he is passive in his business dealings, no one can force him to do anything.
Now that we've finally heard that he's going to participate in a variety show, even if it's just an ordinary rural variety show, fans are extremely excited and have already started celebrating online.
If news were to break now that he has canceled the recording, his fans would absolutely be furious.
Gu Huaiye always valued his promises; he would never go back on something he had personally agreed to.
Yan Shuyi added, "Besides, weren't you planning to say goodbye to your fans on this variety show?"
Gu Huaiye entered the entertainment industry to act simply because of his hobby, but he will eventually return to his rightful place. His family has already put up with his neglect of his work for three years, which is the limit.
He also intended to retire from the entertainment industry, but because his fans kept urging him to participate in various activities and make more public appearances, he made an exception and participated in a variety show as a special gift to his fans before bidding farewell to his acting career.
But he was afraid of trouble and didn't want to go through too much trouble, so he chose Tianyuan Shiguang, which was his last relaxation before taking over the Gu Group.
But now...
Gu Huaiye looked down at the calico cat in his arms and frowned.
Yunzhen looked up at him, guessing that this must be the variety show she recorded with the female lead.
Thinking of this, a hint of anticipation appeared in Yunzhen's eyes.
Gu Huaiye seemed to notice Yun Zhen's curiosity. After considering it for a while, he finally made a decision: "I've decided to take her with me!"
"Are you serious? The recording conditions for 'Time in the Countryside' aren't very good."
Gu Huaiye nodded. "You can talk to the director. I won't break the filming rules, but you have to agree to let me bring some cat food and toys. If that's not possible, then just decline."
He can suffer injustice, but his cat cannot.
Upon hearing this, Yunzhen patted his arm as a reward.
Gu Huaiye sensed her movement, and his gaze softened even more.
"Well... okay."
Yan Shuyi glanced at Yun Zhen, but ultimately did not object.
Gu Huaiye asked, "Is there anything else?"
"No more." Yan Shuyi shook her head.
"Then you can continue shopping."
Don't stay here and bother them anymore.
Yan Shuyi rolled her eyes and pushed the cart away without looking back.
Honestly, if you didn't know better, you'd think he was with his girlfriend instead of his cat.
After Yan Shuyi left, Gu Huaiye continued to buy groceries for Yunzhen while pushing the shopping cart.
After paying, he had the supermarket deliver the goods to his door, and then he slowly walked back empty-handed, carrying Yunzhen in his arms.
As soon as I returned to the villa, a truck pulled up and parked at the door.
