The man's fingertips were icy and carried a chilling chill as they poked the girl's forehead. It was like a piece of thousand-year-old ice, instantly making people shiver all over.
Xia Ruanruan twitched her pretty eyebrows and subconsciously bit her short hand. Her voice trembled, as if filled with three parts of distress and seven parts of doubt. She was not afraid of the other person's cold fingers at all. "Xiaobai, you're right. There's no difference between Danhuang Dahei and me. We can both go to school... But I've never seen Xiaobai read a book. Xiaobai is obviously either sleeping or on his way to sleep every day. He doesn't seem to like reading at all..."
Chu Hang: “…………”
Although the little girl across from him didn't say anything, Chu Hang clearly saw a line of large characters written on her forehead - 'You're just a three-month-old kitten who doesn't even like to read, and you actually want to teach me how to read?'
As the manifestation of his spiritual body, the white cat and his real body can appear at the same time, but so far, he has not been able to control both bodies at the same time. Therefore, whenever his real body wakes up, the little white cat's body will fall asleep, and vice versa.
These days, whenever this body was left in the shelter to recuperate, Chu Hang would wake up from the underground laboratory and wander around the entire Star Moon City, looking for those guys in the laboratory. Once his mental power returned to his original body, this kitten's body would naturally fall asleep.
Thinking of the pain he felt in the laboratory over the past three years as the scalpel scraped across his skin, and the stinging pain of the sharp needle piercing his blood vessels, the man narrowed his eyes slightly, and a chilling coldness was revealed in the depths of his eyes.
Xia Ruanruan's large, dark eyes darted around restlessly, her thick, long eyelashes trembling from time to time, trying to hide her guilty conscience. Ever since she'd said that, Xiaobai had remained silent, even his expression becoming slightly colder, sensing the noticeable drop in temperature around him.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Xia Runrun coughed twice awkwardly and tried to find a topic to talk about.
"Xiaobai, do you know where your parents are?"
Xia Runruan raised her little head and deliberately brought up the most important topic for every baby. Although Xiaobai was so big and no one knew how he became like this, Xia Runruan thought about it and realized that he was just a kitten of two or three months old. What child doesn't miss his parents, even a kitten is no exception.
The little girl stood on tiptoe and raised her head hard, trying to see Hang's expression clearly.
However……
A four-year-old was so short that even standing on tiptoe, she could only see the man's chin. Therefore, she didn't notice that Chu Hang's expression had grown even colder when she mentioned her parents. Even her brows knitted slightly, and a complex emotion gathered in her dark eyes, eventually turning into a silent ice.
As a patient with emotional indifference, Chu Hang had not had a close relationship with his parents since childhood. Although they were relatively harmonious, they treated each other more like guests. However, he did not expect that less than three months after the natural disaster, his parents would directly sell him to the underground laboratory and use the food they got from him to exchange for the qualification to enter the survival base.
The low pressure all over the man's body was almost condensed into substance. Chu Hang remembered the words he heard from his neighbor in the shelter cafeteria...
His expression became increasingly cold and profound, like the coldest ice and snow on the mountains, cold, lonely, yet filled with a deadly gloom.
Xia Ruanruan: “……?”
Even though I couldn't see the expression of the person opposite me, the deadly cold aura emanating from him slowly and unconsciously like a black hole.
Xia Ruanruan thought the man was thinking of his lost parents. Her short hands unconsciously tugged at the man's down jacket, and her voice was soft and warm, "Don't worry, Xiaobai. Even if you're separated from your parents, I can definitely help you find them~!"
After all, it's just a little kitten. It's been away from its parents for a long time, was kidnapped by bad guys, and is frightened every day. How could it not miss its parents?
"Don't underestimate Xingyue City's size, but I'm also capable!" The little girl patted her chest proudly, with an expression that said, "I'm very reliable, just leave everything to me." "Whether it's Dahei or Xiong Baqi and Xiong Weiwu, they can all help us find your parents~"
Adult mutant beasts are not small in size. Xiaobai is just an ordinary white rural cat. According to the comparison between Egg Yolk and Heitan from Zhang Li's family, Xiaobai's parents should not be less than three meters in size. The taller the mutant animal is, the stronger it is, and the higher the probability of survival. In just these few days, Xia Runrun believes that Xiaobai's cat father and mother should still be alive. As long as they are alive, they can find each other. Xia Runrun has no doubt about this!
His body unconsciously lowered slightly with the strength of the little girl's hand. Looking at the funny look of the little girl pretending to be an adult and the worry and anxiety revealed in her dark eyes, Chu Hang's heart softened unconsciously and ripples appeared.
Chu Hang didn't know whether it was because he had a connection with this child, or because he had spent three years in the underground laboratory and had very little contact with people, but he always felt that whenever he faced this child, his emotions, which had been almost difficult to respond to external stimuli in the past, became sensitive. He could actually see anxiety and worry in the little girl's expression.
The feeling of being cared for is like a stream of hot spring water, slowly pouring on the hard ice and melting the thin layer of ice on the outside.
Chu Hang's brows relaxed, and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corners of his mouth. He reached out and touched the little girl's furry head. The slightly curly hair was soft and felt very nice, so Chu Hang unconsciously touched it a few more times.
"Chicks leave the nest when they grow up, and the same goes for cats... kittens and other animals, so you don't need to help me find their parents."
Xia Ruanruan: “……???!”
Xia Ruanruan suddenly realized and blurted out subconsciously, "Grown up? But Xiaobai, why is your body so small? Could it be that Xiaobai is a thousand-year-old cat demon?! No wonder he is different from Dahei and the others. Not only can he transform into a human, but he is also so tall!"
The little girl was already cute, and her eyes were wide open with surprise.
The little girl's shocked expression was too exaggerated, and coupled with his wild imagination, Chu Hang subconsciously curled the corners of his lips slightly, and even his eyes involuntarily curved into crescent shapes.
The man was born handsome, and his long silver hair made him look even more elegant. His smile was like ice melting into spring, and the chillness in his body disappeared instantly.
"Xiaobai's eyes are so pretty when he smiles~"
Xia Ruanruan tilted her head back, blinked subconsciously, and raised the corners of her mouth. "Every time I saw Xiaobai before, he was always cold and aloof, with a serious look on his face. He was just lying there alone. Even if he smiled, there was no smile in his eyes. Xiaobai should smile more in the future, so he will be more popular~!"
A pair of sweet dimples appeared on the little girl's soft face, as sweet as honey to the heart.
Chu Hang subconsciously touched the corner of his eye, and even without noticing it himself, the corner of his eye involuntarily curved downwards again.
The beauty looks good when she smiles, but it's a pity that the human and the cat are different, and their height and age are not right.
Xia Runrun looked at Xiaobai with some regret, but the corners of her mouth raised high again the next second. However, she would be happy too if she could see Xiaobai happy every day!
"Oh, by the way! I also found two nutritional creams today!"
Throwing her regret aside, Xia Ruanruan happily picked up her small backpack and pulled out two tubes of nutritional paste in white shells. She took credit for it, saying, "I found these two tubes in the pile of packages at the pediatric outpatient clinic nurse station. I guess someone has a cat and wanted to buy two tubes. I noticed you haven't been eating much these past few days, so I found some for you. Xiaobai, you can try them later."
Being cared for so much, Chu Hang's heart had already softened into a quagmire.
Think for a moment and make up your mind.
Chu Hang made up his mind to take advantage of this opportunity to communicate with the little girl about the laboratory matters, and then reveal his identity to her. He was just about to speak when he reminded the little girl that her ability to communicate with animals must not be revealed to anyone else.
There was nothing in front of the glass window. Suddenly, a huge cat's head appeared on the window!
The furry, oversized cat's face was squeezed into a cat pancake by the egg yolk, and all the cat's facial features were deformed and flattened. If it weren't for the other party's orange fur, Xia Runrun would hardly dare to confirm that this was the big orange cat at home.
Egg Yolk's eyes were quite resentful, and he stared at the two nutritional pastes in Chu Hang's hands without blinking.
Egg Yolk: I don’t like cats anymore, I don’t like cats anymore, I don’t like cats anymore, I don’t like cats anymore! The cat’s little kid doesn’t love me anymore?!
#She actually gave the nutritional paste to other cats! #
#Because cats can’t turn into humans, do they no longer serve as the little one’s favorite cats?! #
Xia Ruanruan: "..."
Xia Ruanruan touched her nose awkwardly. Although the egg yolk didn't say anything, she had already understood its expression.
"Don't worry, Xiaobai, I will never tell anyone else about your identity as a cat demon!" Xia Runrun wanted to reach out and pat Xiaobai on the head to indicate that she was going to find Danyolk, but she didn't expect that in a hurry, she was too short, and when she stretched out her short hand, she instantly patted the man's thigh.
Xia Ruanruan: "..."
Xia Ruanruan silently withdrew her chubby little hand, looked up as if nothing had happened, and said nonsense seriously: "I just saw some dust on your pants, so I wanted to wipe it off for you."
Chu Hang: “…”
…
However, on the other side, in the school cafeteria.
After finishing the meal and drinking the fish soup, everyone was still a little reluctant to leave. Watching the gala being played repeatedly on TV, many people couldn't help but sing along with the familiar songs on TV.
Someone patted the newly joined survivor next to him and said with a smile, "You are so lucky. You just arrived and encountered a fishing team catching fish. There is soup to drink. It's much luckier than we were at the beginning."
"Of course." The survivor patted the shoulder of the person next to him, laughed, and soon joined the others in singing.
Life in the past three years has been so depressing. Even if we lived in an underground parking lot, everyone would try to keep their voices down to cover up the noise and prevent ferocious beasts from attacking the shelter, not to mention singing loudly at night like we are doing now.
then……
The group of people were singing and having a great time that night.
