Just when his spirit was stretched to the limit, the small door slowly opened a crack.
A white shadow emerged with great difficulty.
Yan Huailiu almost suffocated, and after taking a deep breath, he put down the stick: "It's a cat."
The palm-sized little white cat looked up at it, its glass-like eyes flashing with a strange light, and after a moment it took a step towards Yan Huailiu.
Yan Huailiu's heart was about to melt. He squatted down and stretched out his hand towards it: "How cute! Come here, I have something delicious here~"
The voice was unnaturally gentle.
The kitten seemed to pause for a moment, and curiously rubbed against Yan Huailiu's hand, then was picked up by him.
"Let me see, um... your baby teeth haven't fallen out yet. Are you a month old, little one? Where did you come from? Did some young master secretly bring you here?"
The kitten naturally couldn't speak, so it just grabbed Yan Huailiu's hand and put it into its mouth.
Yan Huailiu broke the apple next to him into small pieces and was about to feed it to the baby. However, seeing the little guy's confused look, he could only try to make it into a puree and feed it to the baby slowly in his hand.
"Oh, it's over. If you can't find the exit, you'll starve to death here with me. Oh, you won't starve to death, but you'll have to eat this fruit for the rest of your life. But then again, have you been weaned? Tsk, how come your fruit isn't even as big as my hand? How can you survive in this dangerous world?"
Although he suffers from social anxiety, Yan Huailiu is a chatterbox when he is alone.
He can talk a lot to any non-human object, even if it is just a table or a chair, not to mention a cute cat.
The kitten's ears twitched a few times, obviously impatient to listen to this.
Yan Huailiu stroked its little cat's head while muttering, "I don't know what's going on out there. Alas, although those apprentices are more capable of handling things, they are still children after all. I don't know if they are being bullied."
The kitten stopped licking the fruit puree and just looked up at him.
Yan Huailiu sighed: "That Gu Xingyun is the same, he is so dumb with words and stubborn, he doesn't even run away when being bullied. He is such a grown-up, what's the point of being kind? He needs to be smarter."
He got a headache just thinking about this future little villain.
The feeling in his hand suddenly disappeared, and when Yan Huailiu came back to his senses, he saw the kitten running forward.
He stood up anxiously: "Hey, hey, hey, don't run around, it's very dangerous here, slow down, ah ah ah, don't leave me here by myself, I will be scared!"
If there were someone else around, they would definitely see the speechless expression on the kitten's face.
It was so hard to find someone to accompany him, so Yan Huailiu didn't want to let it go. He followed it all the way, pushed open several doors, and finally caught up with it.
He panted, bent down and held the kitten in his arms. "With your short legs, you can actually run! I declare that from now on, your name will be Lightning."
The kitten buried its head in his palm, looking incredibly well-behaved.
Suddenly, a weak voice called out from the side: "Yan, Sect Master Yan..."
Yan Huailiu was so frightened that he trembled. When he looked up, he found that he had come out of the secret room without knowing when.
There stood a familiar face in front of me, but I couldn't place it.
Looking at the shiny forehead, Yan Huailiu was a little embarrassed: "Master."
No matter what the name is, it’s always right to call him Master.
It seems to be from Qingguang Temple?
Master Chen Wu chanted a Buddhist name, his eyes casually sweeping over Yan Huailiu's hand: "Since Sect Master Yan has a compassionate heart, why does he hide it? When pearls and jade are covered in dust for too long, the world can only see the unbearable filth underneath."
Yan Huailiu laughed awkwardly twice, not knowing what the monk was talking about.
Perhaps because he acted too harmless, Master Chen Wu sighed lightly: "Sect Master Yan is quite free. I have no intention of interfering in the affairs of the Yuxu Sect. I just want to remind you that Young Benefactor Gu is still young and still needs the protection of our Master."
Yan Huailiu turned these words over in his mind twice before reacting: "What happened to Xingyun?"
Master Chen Wu was a little embarrassed: "Well, it's hard for me to talk about this kind of thing. Sect Master Yan, I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."
Looking at his back, Yan Huailiu was completely confused. He then lifted up the kitten lying in his palm and muttered to himself, "Did he become stupid from chanting sutras? Why is he acting so strangely?"
After a quick look at the direction, Yan Huailiu found that this place was very close to his residence, so he decisively chose to go back.
It was still a bit cold today, and his clothes were wrinkled beyond recognition. The thin layers couldn't even block the wind.
I put the kitten on the bed after entering the room and gave it a serious education: "No jumping down, no scratching, and no peeing or defecating on the bed, or I will throw you out, understand?"
The kitten tilted its head and called out to it.
Yan Huailiu spinelessly lay down and said softly: "Oh, I was just kidding, why would brother throw you out? Be good, the ground is cold, wait until brother changes clothes and takes you to eat something delicious, okay~"
The kitten's ears twitched, then it turned around and buried its head in the quilt.
Yan Huailiu rubbed it and then got up to change his clothes.
As soon as I took off my shirt, the door was pushed open with great force.
Then I heard, "I'm sorry."
The door closed again without even a single person in sight.
Yan Huailiu frowned and quickly put on his clothes before he realized that the words just now came from his junior brother.
"How rude! Doesn't he even know to knock?"
There were so many strings on the coat that Yan Huailiu was so flustered that he didn't know where to tie them.
Just then, Gu Xingyun's voice rang out from the doorway: "Master, have you had your meal yet?"
Yan Huailiu's eyes lit up, as if he saw a savior: "Come in first."
Gu Xingyun responded, carefully opened the door, and placed the food box on the table.
"Come and help me put it on."
Yan Huailiu suppressed his embarrassment and gave orders in a calm tone.
Fortunately, Gu Xingyun was used to serving him, so he walked up without saying a word, untied the messy belt that Yan Huailiu had tied earlier, and put it on again carefully.
This scene was so eye-catching that Baili Changhuan wished he could just tear off his lenses and blind his eyes.
He is so delicate that he needs his apprentice to help him put on his clothes!
The anger that was originally directed at Gu Xingyun was instantly transferred to Yan Huailiu.
Baili Changhuan took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and asked in a deep voice: "So, you plan to train your apprentice to be a servant?"
Gu Xingyun paused his movements.
Yan Huailiu frowned, subconsciously patted his hand to comfort him, and then said: "Junior brother, what you said is a bit too much."
Baili Changhuan smiled gently, "Am I going too far? Oh, I understand. Then, according to what the Sect Master Senior Brother meant, should we marry the Young Palace Master of Xuanyue Palace with three letters of engagement, six engagements, and eight sedan chairs?"
Yan Huailiu stared at him for a long time, his expression extremely complicated: "Junior brother, how old is the Young Palace Master of Xuanyue Palace? He is still a child! How can you treat his child like this!"
