At the entrance to the ward.
Bai Lin put her phone away and wiped away her younger brother's tears: "Sweetie, fourth brother? He'll be here soon. He knows medicine and can take a look at Xie Chen."
Bai Li sniffed and nodded.
No? After a while, the doctor came out first.
"Mr. Xie is still in a coma."
The doctor adjusted his glasses and told them, "We've done a full examination, but we haven't found any cause yet."
"When will he wake up?" Bai Li asked anxiously.
The doctor shook his head: "Not sure."
Since the cause of his coma couldn't be determined, the doctors naturally couldn't predict when he would wake up.
"Mr. Xie's health is perfectly fine."
Fearing they might worry, the doctor added, "He looks like he's in a deep sleep. He might wake up soon, or we might have to wait a while."
Bai Li listened, bewildered.
No problem can be found...
Why isn't Mr. Ke awake yet?
"Thanks for your hard work."
Bai Lin put his arm around his younger brother's shoulder and took over the conversation with the doctor.
Xie Chen was transferred to a VIP ward, where he shared a bed with Bai Li.
Bai Lin hadn't forgotten that her younger brother was also a patient, so she specially arranged the ward this way.
"Lili, go and rest."
Bai Lin stayed in the ward, keeping an eye on the two of them: "If Xie Chen wakes up, I'll wake you up immediately."
Bai Li doesn't want to sleep.
"I want to keep an eye on the gentleman."
He sat down beside Xie Chen, holding Xie Chen's hand tightly, just as Xie Chen had done before.
Bai Lin frowned, stood beside him, bent down, and tried to coax him to another bed.
I tried to coax him for ages, but it was no use.
"never mind."
Bai Lin ruffled his hair: "You turn back into a cat and sleep next to him, that way you'll notice if he moves, okay?"
This proposal was finally accepted.
Bai Li suddenly transformed back into a snow-white kitten, curled up in Xie Chen's arms, snuggled against his body, and obediently closed her eyes.
He had been submerged in water and then repeatedly frightened, so his body was already too weak to hold on. Before long, his breathing became even.
Bai Lin watched the human and the kitten intently, without moving an inch.
On the bed.
Xie Shen was lost in a dream in which he saw his parents, who had been missing for a long time.
Besides the parents, there was also an infant in their arms.
Xie Chen watched the family of three as an outsider, and his intuition told him that the baby in the swaddling clothes was him.
"Old Xie, do you think we can successfully raise this child we found?"
"Of course you can."
The old Xie in his dream was his father, who was still young at the time.
He embraced his wife, looked at the toddler in his arms, and said gently, "This child is destined to be with us. No matter what it takes, we must ensure he lives a good life."
"But, but others say he's a calamity—"
Don't overthink it.
Old Xie interrupted her, saying, "He's not some jinx. From now on, he'll be our son."
Xie Chen: "..."
I had a dream. Was it him? Was he my biological son?
That's outrageous.
In his dream, Xie Chen found it all absurd, but outside the dream, the little kitten was sleeping peacefully next to him.
Bai Lin looked up at them, then looked down to send a WeChat message.
"Yinyin, can you let me explain our situation?"
Sending failed.
Bai Lin frowned, looking at the notification that he had been blocked, but he wasn't discouraged and switched to text messages.
After sending the text message, he tried again, and sure enough, the phone number was blocked again.
I've been blocked by everyone.
Bai Lin, as expected of the most composed leader in the cat family, can still remain calm and think of a solution even at this point.
A few seconds later.
He opened Alipay and started sending messages through it.
In an apartment somewhere.
Yu Yin, who was painting in front of her easel, heard the ding-dong notification sound from Alipay.
He asked in surprise, "Who transferred money to me?"
I was feeling happy when I opened Alipay, and damn it, there wasn't a single penny transferred; it was all messages from so-and-so.
Yu Yin felt stifled, and thinking about everything that had happened before, she felt even more frustrated.
He didn't even look at the message and immediately logged out.
In the hospital ward.
Bai Li's body temperature rose again without her realizing it.
Bai Lin was the most alert. After hearing the kitten's indistinct babbling, he reached out and touched it.
Upon touching it, he immediately realized something was wrong.
"Lili, Lili, wake up."
Bai Lin called out, trying to wake his younger brother and make him turn back into human form so that the doctor could come and take a look.
But Bai Li just wouldn't wake up.
He was already in poor health, and after being soaked in water for a while, he was frightened yesterday. Today, because of Black-footed Cat and Mr. [Name], he was even more frightened than yesterday.
A series of unexpected events caused the fever, which had just subsided, to rise again.
The feverish kitten knew it was uncomfortable; it curled up in Xie Chen's arms, whimpering and kicking its paws.
Bai Lin saw this and was anxious.
"My dear Lili, wake up and see your big brother."
Bai Li closed her eyes and said, "Meow."
pain.
He has a headache.
Bai Lin couldn't get his younger brother to listen, so he could only urge Bai Lao Si.
The fourth son of the Bai family rushed over as fast as he could, finally arriving just before Bai Lin became too anxious to stay home.
The fourth child's name was chosen arbitrarily, using a homophone, and he was called Bai Si.
The Bai family members all have different facial features, but without a doubt, they are all naturally good-looking.
The eldest brother is resolute. The third brother looks like a playboy, but he's actually timid. The sixth brother looks gentle and harmless, but he's a master of words.
The fourth brother who walked in had messy hair, and when he squinted, he inexplicably gave off a feeling of a refined scoundrel.
Where is Lili?
He pushed open the door and asked the eldest brother, who was standing by the hospital bed.
"Here."
Bai Lin carefully picked up the kitten and handed it to him to look at.
"Lili has a fever, you should take a look at her right away."
"Um."
Bai Si took the kitten he hadn't seen in a long time and kissed its furry head.
In her dazed state, Bai Li sensed her fourth brother's presence and instinctively called out.
"Meow."
Fourth Brother.
"Fourth Brother is here."
Bai Si's eyes were filled with the little kitten in his hands. He hugged the kitten tightly and turned to leave.
"Let me take a look here."
Bai Lin knew his temperament and was afraid that if he took the kitten away, he wouldn't come back, so she held his shoulders and kept him there.
"After you've shown it to Lili, show it to this person."
After Bai Lin finished speaking, seeing that the fourth brother's reaction was not significant, he had no choice but to raise the stakes: "A lot has happened to Lili since she went down the mountain. Don't you want to hear about it?"
“I’ll treat you here, I’ll tell you how.”
Bai Lin's persuasion worked, and Bai Si finally put the kitten on another bed. He took the things he had brought, checked them, and skillfully fed his younger brother the medicine.
Bai Li was being treated by his fourth brother and had no idea that his eldest brother and fourth brother were talking about him.
Moreover, the conversation went so far as to expose all his secrets, including that his fiancé, Fourth Brother, knew.
Bai Laosi listened to these words with a calm expression, his attitude unreadable.
But after he covered the kitten with the blanket and turned to Xie Chen's bedside, he looked at him for a few seconds and only uttered one sentence—
"There's no hope. Just wait to die."
Bai Lin: "..."
Bai Linshi couldn't help but slap him on the back of the head: "Stop messing around! Give him a proper look."
When they were on the mountain, if his younger siblings misbehaved, the eldest brother would give them a good scolding.
Therefore, Bai Si didn't feel anything from his elder brother's attack.
He then looked Xie Chen up and down again.
Tsk.
This appearance is even better than those of demons; no wonder his beloved younger brother wanted to marry him.
With his elder brother personally overseeing things, Bai Si finally checked Xie Chen's health.
After reading it, his expression became somewhat serious.
"Big brother."
Bai Si looked up and stared at Bai Lin: "Is this Xie Chen even a person?"
Bai Lin: "?"
Bai Lin slapped him across the face: "Still messing around with me?! Discipline him properly!"
Bai Si dodged to the side and said seriously, "I'm not making a fuss. Xie Chen isn't human, but I don't know exactly what he is."
Bai Lin was stunned.
It took Bai Lin quite a while to come to her senses: "Xie Chen... is he human?"
"right."
Bai Si affirmed, "No? It's not a person, I don't know what it is... Also, he's fine. I'll get him some medicine, and he'll wake up in a bit."
"Alright, wake him up first."
Bai Lin didn't know what was wrong with Xie Chen either, and the most urgent thing right now was to wake Xie Chen up.
Bai Si's medical skills are indeed quite good.
After he gave Xie Chen the medicine, Xie Chen indeed showed signs of waking up.
"Brother, it's getting late."
Bai Si yawned, looking sleepy: "You stay here and keep watch, I'll come back when I wake up."
Bai Lin nodded, still observing Xie Chen's movements.
"Then go back to sleep."
Bai Siqian had just left when Xie Chen woke up behind him.
After waking up.
Xie Chen's head felt like it was about to explode; he felt a flood of memories pouring into his brain all at once.
Those memories, whether true or false, are unknown.
Xie Chen rubbed his temples, not bothering to sort through his memories.
He forced himself to sit up in bed, and his first words were, "Where's Lili?"
He accompanied Lili to the hillside.
Then, he fell unconscious. Needless to say, Lili must have been terrified.
Bai Lin was somewhat moved when he saw that he himself was still not feeling well, and the first thing he did was to look for Lili.
"He was sleeping in another bed, so I brought him here."
As Bai Lin spoke, he walked to the bed next to him, lifted the blanket, and prepared to take the little kitten out from under the blanket.
But--
When the blanket was pulled back, Bai Lin was dumbfounded.
Where's his cat?!
Xie Chen noticed that he wasn't moving and sensed something was wrong.
"Big brother, is Lili still sleeping?"
Xie Chen braced himself against the bed frame, forcibly mustered his strength, and got down to walk to Bai Lin's side.
He felt uneasy not seeing Lili for a while.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment.
Bai Lin forced a smile and explained to Xie Chen, "Well, when you were unconscious, Lili's fourth brother came by."
Xie Chen: "..."
Xie Chen's cold eyes were terrifyingly deep. His thin lips were tightly pressed together as he stared at the empty bed without uttering a word.
Bai Lin, however, couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
He knew about Lili and Xie Chen...
Xie Chen was caught off guard when the fourth brother suddenly took Lili away, which he could understand.
"cough."
Bai Lin tried to smooth things over: "Fourth brother? Maybe he hasn't had Lili for a long time, so he took him away. I'll bring Lili back."
That's what he said, but Xie Chen still remembered that Bai Lin had just told him that not long ago.
When Bai Laosi was up on the mountain with Lili in his mouth, no one could find him.
"No need to trouble you, brother."
Xie Chen concealed the emotions in his eyes, and without any hesitation, grabbed his coat, put it on, and pushed open the ward door.
"I'm going to pick up Lili now."
Bai Lin watched his retreating figure and sighed.
Following Lili.
That might be a bit difficult.
Meanwhile, Bai Li's headache gradually subsided as the medicine took effect.
He didn't open his eyes, only meowing occasionally. Sometimes he called out "Sir," sometimes "Blackie."
Bai Si brought his younger brother to his own territory, a place no one knew, not even his older brother.
He transformed back into his original form, becoming an elegant long-haired cat.
The long-haired cat carried the snow-white kitten in its mouth and led it to the soft cat bed.
Then, the two cats snuggled together. The long-haired cat lowered its head and licked the kitten's fur, cleaning it completely before closing its eyes contentedly.
very good.
After such a long time, he took his precious little brother away again.
Hidden here, no one can find it.
Bai Si thought he couldn't find it, but in the face of high technology, he still had nowhere to hide.
Xie Chen looked at the location on the locator, said nothing, and felt that putting that thing on the kitten was the wisest choice he could make.
In the cat's bed.
The kitten, who had been sleeping for quite a while, finally slowly opened its eyes.
"Meow meow".
gentlemen.
The little kitten's beautiful amber eyes were filled with confusion as it meowed and began to look for its teacher.

Boss: Looking for a cat.
