Shen Muqing had very sharp ears and could hear Su Xia and Ji Ming arguing downstairs. She was wide awake and got up to look at the door.
It's impossible for her small body to open the door, but perhaps we can try.
Ji Sui didn't have the habit of locking his room. Shen Muqing tiptoed toward the door, turning back every few steps to check if Ji Sui had been woken up.
Wait, why does she look like a thief? She mustered her strength and jumped, successfully unlocking the door and walking outside.
Su Xia was feeling sad when she heard a meowing sound.
She looked up and met Shen Muqing's worried, emerald-green cat eyes. Shen Muqing tilted his cat head and looked at her.
"Meow meow meow meow," Mommy, don't cry.
At this moment, Su Xia's emotions completely collapsed. She hugged Shen Muqing tightly, buried her head in her petite cat body, and cried, tears and snot streaming down her face.
Shen Muqing also felt bad; seeing others sad and shedding tears would also make her feel sad.
She slowly extended a pink, tender pad of flesh to touch Su Xia's face, clumsily wiping away the tears that had just flowed from the corner of her eyes.
Slowly, the paw pad transformed into a tiny, delicate human hand. Su Xia stopped crying and stared blankly at the scene.
Shen Muqing, who had transformed into a five or six-year-old girl, was unaware of her own changes. She uttered a soft, worried voice: "Mommy, don't cry."
Su Xia picked her up and sat her on the sofa, and this scene unfolded: the two of them, one big and one small, staring at each other in the dim light.
Shen Muqing realized she had become human, and a little girl at that. Was she a demon? Wasn't it said that demons couldn't exist after the founding of the People's Republic of China?
She stared at Su Xia with wide eyes, hoping that Su Xia wouldn't mistake her for a monster. She hadn't had enough of her good life yet, and she didn't want to go back to wandering.
So she put on what she thought was a sweet smile to tell Su Xia that she meant no harm.
Su Xia stared at this scene in surprise, "What did you just call me?"
"Mom?" Shen Muqing asked hesitantly.
"Hey, Mommy's good daughter." Su Xia gave her a big hug, and Shen Muqing was forced to bury her face in her chest, inhaling her sweet scent deeply.
"Are you the cat that Zai Zai brought back?"
Su Xia pinched and gently rubbed the baby fat on her face.
"Yes, Du, can I call you Mom?" Shen Muqing said, her words muffled by the pinching.
"Of course, has your baby named you yet?"
"No, but I have my own name, my name is Qingqing."
Su Xia was about to faint from cuteness; the little girl in front of her was so adorable, like an angel. "Qingqing?"
Shen Muqing nodded. "Mm."
"Aren't you scared, Mom? I'm a cat in disguise."
Su Xia smiled gently, "Will Qingqing hurt me and my brother?"
"No." Shen Muqing shook her head. Of course not. She was here to save the female lead. She now had a clear understanding of her mission. It was more of a plan to save the female lead than a male-oriented system.
"Then why would a mother be afraid of her own child?" Su Xia stroked Shen Muqing's head, the smooth feel of her hand making her reluctant to let go.
"Does Brother know that Qingqing can turn into a human?"
"If I don't know, only Mom can know," Shen Muqing told Su Xia, wanting to avoid causing trouble.
After maintaining her human form for only a short time, Shen Muqing transformed back into a cat. She sat down in front of Su Xia.
"Meow meow meow meow." Mom wants to keep it a secret.
"Okay." They seemed to understand each other perfectly; perhaps because they had seen Shen Muqing in her human form, Su Xia could now roughly understand her cat-like meows.
"Meow," it's too late, Mom, go to sleep.
"good."
Su Xia carried Shen Muqing upstairs, put her down at the fork in the road, and kissed her on the forehead, saying, "Goodnight, Qingqing."
Goodnight, meow meow.
Shen Muqing returned to her room, not forgetting to use her small body to push the door back open, and then jumped back onto her own pillow.
She glanced at Ji Sui and saw his tightly closed eyes, then relaxed and fell asleep.
In the darkness, Ji Sui opened his eyes, his probing gaze falling on Shen Muqing. Where did the kitten go so late?
He reached out and pulled Shen Muqing into his arms, a faint shadow falling over his eyes. The little kitten was being naughty.
Over the past month, Shen Muqing often went to see Su Xia while Ji Sui was asleep, and her relationship with Su Xia became increasingly close.
She grew from looking like she was five or six years old to ten.
She lay in Su Xia's arms, "Mom, aren't you going to get a divorce?"
A hint of sadness crossed Su Xia's expression. "Qingqing, actually, Mommy has thought about it too, but Zai Zai is still so young, and I'm afraid he won't be able to live well without me."
"That's easy, just take your brother away."
"It's not that simple. Ji Ming only has one son, so why would he let him go so easily?"
Su Xia spoke bitterly, sometimes she really had enough of this stupid life and missed the days before she got married.
Shen Muqing's big eyes darted around, and she whispered in Su Xia's ear, "Mom can find a woman to seduce him and get her pregnant, then you can take your brother away."
"Will this work? He's cheated on so many women and none of them have gotten pregnant."
Su Xia said, "Could it be that he's become infertile from sleeping with too many women?"
"Definitely." Shen Muqing nodded seriously, a look of disgust appearing on her face, which had lost its baby fat.
"Then what should we do?"
"That's easy. Find a woman to cuckold him and make Ji Ming think the child is his own."
Su Xia looked at Shen Muqing quietly, her gentle face bearing the authority of a parent, "Baby, where did you learn so much?"
Shen Muqing laughed awkwardly, "Hahaha, of course I learned it from watching TV."
She nimbly got out of bed and transformed into her cat form, meowing, "Mommy, it's getting late, go to sleep early."
Then it nimbly ran out, as fast as it wanted.
Su Xia had no choice but to smile helplessly on the bed. Then she considered whether Shen Muqing's method was feasible. After thinking for a long time, she realized that it was highly feasible.
Over there, Shen Muqing, who was already familiar with the way in the darkness, returned to Ji Sui's bed. Ji Sui still didn't know that she had secretly slipped out at night.
She glanced at Ji Sui as usual, but in the darkness, she met his dark, shining eyes.
"Meow!"
Shen Muqing let out a loud, startled meow; it was truly terrifying.
Seeing this guilty look, Ji Sui made a decision in his mind.
Ji Sui got up, turned on the light, picked up Shen Muqing and faced him. Shen Muqing looked left and right but couldn't meet his eyes.
Shen Muqing's guilty conscience was fully displayed.
Ji Sui raised his hand and turned Shen Muqing's cat head back to its proper position. "Little cat, you're being naughty."
Ji Sui, who was usually pure and innocent, lowered her eyes, making Shen Muqing tremble slightly.
Meow~
Shen Muqing pretended not to know anything and looked at him innocently.
After a long while, Ji Sui was the first to succumb, turning off the lights and sighing.
"sleep."
As Shen Muqing slept in his arms, she thought to herself that she should be more careful next time and not wake Ji Sui again.
