Chapter 2002 "Liang Qing's Heart"
The door of the secondary bedroom was locked all night. Lan Xi waited for a long time but he didn't come out. She felt sleepy and prepared to go to bed.
She still had strict requirements in this regard. No matter how secluded and soft the cat bed was, she had to sleep on the bed as usual. Since the master bedroom was empty, it would be hers from now on. Ahem, for now.
The bed in the master bedroom was very soft, and the three-piece set was a little dusty, but fortunately she was furry and could adapt to it better.
Lan Xi was woken up by the little fish doll that slept with her.
The young man squatted beside the bed and poked her claws again and again with a small fish doll. She stretched out her sharp nails to hook the doll, and the young man on the other end immediately let go of his hand for fear of angering her.
It was still early, Lan Xi yawned and prepared to turn over and continue sleeping.
"Mimi, I'm taking you for a physical examination today," the young man went around to the other side and explained patiently, "We have to leave early."
The squinting little Siamese cat on the bed perked up a little, stood up and jumped out of bed, as if it understood what he said - but he thought it was more likely that he was nagging and forcing the kitten to get up.
He added water and cat food to the cat, sat on the sofa, and looked up guides on his phone. Then he realized the most pressing problem: what if the cat refused to enter the cat bag? Should he catch it?
Lan Xi, while crunching her cat food, was thinking about something completely different: sneak out while he opened the door and find a way to get back to her parents' house. She knew their personalities well and knew they would definitely adopt a stray cat if they met one.
No matter what, as long as she could go home, Lan Xi was most concerned about her original body.
Silently, a cat bun was placed behind her. When she had filled her stomach and turned around, the young man held the cat bun and forced a smile: "Mimi..."
How should he say it? Can the kitten understand?
The little Siamese's black claws pounced, and the cat bag shook gently. The young man was stunned for a moment. A meowing sound came from the cat bag, as if urging him to set off quickly.
There are such considerate and well-behaved cats in the world.
Through the transparent shell, Lan Xi watched the young man go to the secondary bedroom to change into a dark sweatshirt. He even wore a mask, fully armed, and carried her on his back and went out.
While waiting at a traffic light, she accidentally caught a glimpse of the phone screen of the person next to her. The previous evening, a car accident had occurred on a section of a downtown road, resulting in one death and one injury. The injured was Lan Xi, the eldest daughter of the Lan family, who was currently in a coma in the hospital. A pop-up window with gossip appeared, headlined: "The Lan family's eldest daughter had a night out with her secret lover."
Lan Xi: “…”
She turned around in the cat bag and turned her back to him, not looking.
The veterinary hospital was particularly crowded today, and the young man carried Lan Xi to the registration window. Due to her limited visibility, Lan Xi had no idea what he was doing. If she had taken out her cat bag and climbed onto his shoulders, she would have noticed that he was staring at the people coming and going to register.
She only knew that he stood there blankly for a while, then put down the cat bag on the chair beside him and told her seriously, "I want to give you a name."
Lan Xi didn't care. She would run away when she found the chance.
"Um... can you call me Xinxin?"
She didn't dislike the name, but she couldn't say she liked it that much either. It sounded like an omega's childhood nickname.
"Do you like it?"
The young man asked her uncertainly.
She's a cat now... Just give the cat a name, what's with that nervous expression and tone? Do you really think a cat can understand? Lan Xi muttered a few words in her heart, but finally met his gaze and meowed as a response.
"Like?" He smiled, his eyes curved, "Then I'll call you Xinxin from now on."
The waiting information was displayed on the big screen. Lan Xi saw the line "Liang Qing's Xinxin" and her eyes twitched. Now she felt that the name "Xinxin" was a bit strange.
*
The examination went very smoothly, beyond Liang Qing's expectations. Xinxin didn't struggle at all. The little cat lay on the cold instrument, its blue eyes full of curiosity.
He never imagined that one day there would be a new member in his family, and he never thought that the cat would have such a well-behaved personality. Liang Qing hadn't left the house for a long time, and he always felt inexplicably frightened when walking on the street, but today was an exception.
He sat on a chair in the corridor until the examination was over, then went to pick up the cat. Perhaps it was because he had been sitting for too long, but when he suddenly stood up, his vision went dark. Liang Qing leaned against the wall and took a deep breath, and the black and white double image in his vision gradually disappeared.
He opened the cat bag and the cat lay down in it obediently.
The moment the zipper was closed, Lan Xi knew that this "prison break" was completely hopeless. But Liang Qing looked so shaky... Thinking back, he only drank a cup of coffee before leaving this morning.
She had never seen anyone with such crispy skin.
Anyway, "Lan Xi" was still lying in the hospital and wouldn't wake up for a while. Lan Xi comforted herself that it wouldn't be a problem to be "Xin Xin" for a few days.
If she ran now, Liang Qing would probably faint from anxiety.
Cat food and toys are not eaten for free. Well, I will be a kitten and supervise him.
As soon as he got home, Lan Xi jumped up and opened the refrigerator door to remind him to eat. When Liang Qing opened the refrigerator, she saw two large shelves of instant food, comparable to supermarket shelves. It was obvious that this person couldn't cook at all... Well, just eat instant food, at least it can fill your stomach.
As she thought about this, Liang Qing took out a piece of beef tenderloin from the refrigerator and asked, "Is this what we're having for lunch today?"
He looked into the cat's sparkling eyes and said, "I learned how to make cat food online. You can even smell the newly arrived ingredients? You have a really good nose."
Not planning on eating it yourself at all?
Liang Qing took out the ingredients and put them away, then washed his hands and went to the second bedroom to find his pajamas. He was used to loose and comfortable clothes, and every time he went out, he would be covered in dust, so he had to take a shower and change clothes.
Seeing him leaving the kitchen to do other things, Lan Xi hurriedly chased after him and saw a white arm coming out of a shirt. Liang Qing was standing in front of the shower in the bathroom, with his shirt half-taken off and hanging around his neck.
An extremely slender mass of bones, tapering from the shoulders to the waist, narrow as a bone china vase, perhaps with a slight exaggeration. Fragile, too fragile to hold, yet always inspiring a strange desire to control.
"Don't look, kitten." He closed the door.
Lan Xi turned around like a cat and walked back to the living room.
She had often seen the beautiful bodies of omegas during her time in extreme sports. Their naturally endearing bodies formed a stark contrast to those of alphas. Omegas were always soft and slender.
Perhaps it was the alpha's nature that made Lan Xi's gaze not linger on the beta. She thought this might be the first time she saw the beta's body up close - although she only saw half of it.
Beta, no, Liang Qing is also slender, but his slenderness is different from that of an omega. He has a stronger structure than an omega, but his thin body makes him look slender.
Like a broken bamboo or a worn sword.
Looking at the cardboard boxes piled up in the living room, she decided to clean them up herself. After all, she had plenty of strength, while Liang Qing looked like he might fall down at any time.
“Bang, bang!”
There was a dull thud of a body falling to the floor in the bathroom.
Collapsed again so soon... Lan Xi vaguely remembered that taking a shower on an empty stomach could easily lead to hypoglycemia and fainting. As an alpha who had been skydiving, diving, and rock climbing for years, this was the first time she had witnessed someone fainting from taking a shower.
But now she is not a strong alpha, but a little Siamese.
Fortunately, Liang Qing hadn't locked the bathroom door. She jumped up, pressed the doorknob, and with all her might, pushed the door open with her head. She saw a pale body lying on the floor. His eyes were closed, his lips pale. Before he fainted, he seemed to be trying to grab something, but ended up pulling off the detachable shower head, which hit his shin bone, leaving a bruise...
Lan Xi's gaze suddenly paused, resting on a tooth mark on her ankle. It was a bite mark from a cat, bloody and covered with a dark red scab.
All at once, memories came flooding back to her like a rising tide.
After the car accident, the moment she lost consciousness, she turned into a poor little Siamese cat that came to the beach for some unknown reason and was swallowed by the waves.
She flapped her limbs weakly and struggled to swim upstream. Every little distance she gained with all her strength was easily swallowed up, until she suddenly saw someone beside her.
Lan Xi bit the other person's ankle without hesitation.
He stopped.
From the moment those hands picked her up, the terrifying water flow and the howling sea breeze were all isolated from her world. Lan Xi felt the warmth and a strong heartbeat.
She gently nudged Liang Qing with her head and called a few times in his ear, hoping to wake him up. This trick didn't work very well, so Lan Xi had to run to the master bedroom, drag the blankets and sheets over to cover Liang Qing, and then took out the glucose solution from the household medicine cabinet and brought it over.
Liang Qing was unconscious, and she didn't dare to feed him now, as there was a high possibility that the food would flow into his trachea.
What a good person, living alone and taking care of himself like this.
But he can take care of cats, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to take care of himself.
Lan Xi thought that maybe he had anorexia or something and only liked to eat fast food.
She stayed close to Liang Qing's neck, keeping an eye on his condition.
The warm little body rose and fell with breathing, and the fluffy fur brushed against the skin. Liang Qing smelled a unique sweet scent from the kitten.
He opened his eyes and saw the little Siamese lying on his shoulder, staring at him with a pair of blue eyes, like a cute mochi.
"...I fainted?" He propped himself up, touched a tube of glucose beside him, and then touched the blanket. "You did this? Xinxin, are you worried about me?"
The little Siamese dog slapped the glucose with its paws.
The packaging of glucose is a bit similar to cat noodles. Maybe the kitten thought it was a "human noodle" for humans to eat, so he brought it to him.
After drinking the glucose, Liang Qing managed to regain some strength and carried the soaked blankets and sheets to the washing machine. As he dried himself and changed into his pajamas, he inadvertently glanced in the direction of the mirror.
In the mirror was a haggard man with dark bags under his eyes. He suddenly couldn't recognize himself.
In this condition, he couldn't lift anything with his shoulders or hands, and could only maintain the most basic energy for life activities. He would faint even if he went out.
Liang Qing seemed to realize this fact for the first time. He needed more energy and a better body to take good care of the kitten. Otherwise, if one day he never woke up again...
Since he has decided to raise the child, he must take good care of it.
