"Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother."
The kitten couldn't find its master, so it stretched out its paw to push the fourth brother.
Bai Si was forced to open his eyes because of his younger brother's meowing.
He was awake, but his body was languid and he didn't move: "Lili, be good, stay and sleep with your fourth brother for a while longer."
Bai Li hadn't seen her fourth brother for a long time, and actually missed him too.
He leaned in and gave Fourth Brother a loving rub. After rubbing, he blinked and started meowing again: "I want Mr. Fourth Brother, I want Mr. Fourth Brother."
Bai Si felt as if he was being brainwashed by being addressed as "Sir" repeatedly.
He held his younger brother down with one paw, coaxing him to continue sleeping with him.
"Good boy, don't look for the teacher."
Bai Li shook her head, not obedient at all.
Seeing that its fourth brother insisted on continuing to sleep, the rebellious little kitten started rolling around in its bed.
"Meow, meow meow."
Sir, I need a sir.
Bai Si: "???"
Bai Si's eyes widened slightly, his shock mixed with a hint of bewilderment.
Is this kitten throwing a tantrum and demanding to see Mr. Xie Chen, or is he his usually well-behaved little brother who can sleep with him for hours after being taken away by him?
While Bai Si was still in shock, the little kitten, having received no response, sat up abruptly, its eyes filled with tears as it looked at its fourth brother.
"Meow, meow."
The little kitten was officially informing Fourth Brother that if he didn't go find the master soon, he was going to cry!
Bai Si was worn down to the point that he had no choice but to compromise.
He picked up his younger brother, his heart practically bleeding with rage.
Angry? Dead? Angry? Dead? Angry? Dead.
That Mr. So-and-so is so destructive that even his precious Lili isn't staying with him; he's sleeping in his bed!
"Meow."
Fourth Brother, you can turn into a human and hug me.
Bai Li was caught by her fourth brother, and she even offered him a suggestion!
Bai Si ignored him.
He likes to carry his younger brother in his original form, which is more comfortable, and he can also put the kitten down from time to time to lick its fur.
Bai Li thought they were about to set off to find their teacher, so she obediently let her fourth brother carry her. She didn't make a fuss at all.
Bai Si walked along, seemingly looking for someone, but in reality, he was just taking his younger brother for a stroll.
He glanced at the docile kitten and thought casually, "He's the best at coaxing kittens."
If you keep circling around like this for a while, you can rock the kitten to sleep, and then you can carry it back to its nest.
It has to be said that Bai Si is actually quite experienced in coaxing his younger brother to sleep.
I don't know how long they've been gone.
Bai Li, still sleepy, meowed, "Fourth Brother, how much longer until we find the Master?"
"It will take a while."
Bai Si calmly and nonchalantly deceived his younger brother, going in circles.
After wandering around outside for a long time, Bai Si finally managed to coax his younger brother to sleep.
He was happily carrying his younger brother back to their kennel when suddenly, a blinding white light from the car's headlights suddenly shone brightly, almost blinding him.
The car door opened.
The man who was holding a grudge against Bai Sizheng got down and walked towards him step by step.
Give Lili to me.
Xie Chen looked coldly at the cat carrying Lili in its mouth, his tone devoid of emotion.
Bai Si ignored him and turned to leave.
I've seen a ghost.
There are very few people in this area. How did someone manage to find it?
Seeing the cat about to leave, Xie Chen didn't hesitate and strode to stop it.
This time, he saw through the cat's attitude and didn't try to reason with it anymore. Instead, he called directly to the sleeping kitten.
"Lili, wake up."
Bai Si's heart tightened. He had just coaxed his younger brother to sleep, but his brother was still sleeping very soundly.
Xie Chen seemed to sense his nervousness, and raised his voice again, calling out to Lili.
The kitten, who hadn't slept too soundly, woke up as Xie Chen had hoped.
"Meow?"
gentlemen?
Xie Chen felt a little calmer as he listened to the kitten's meows.
Bai Li was dazed for a moment before snapping out of his daze. He saw Xie Chen in front of him and was immediately overjoyed.
"Meow!"
Fourth Brother, you really did lead me to the Master?
Bai Li affectionately nuzzled his fourth brother, then gestured for his fourth brother to put him down.
Bai Si: "..."
Bai Si's azure cat-like eyes narrowed slightly.
He stared intently at Xie Chen, his eyes conveying a single meaning—
We're not done yet.
Bai Si has never been a good-tempered cat; he only has two hobbies in his life.
First, he sucks on his younger brother.
Second, sleep.
Put together, it means "carry your younger brother to sleep."
Xie Chen completely ignored his gaze; all he wanted to do now was take the little kitten back.
The little kitten opened its paws, also waiting for its owner to hold it.
Forced by circumstances, Bai Si had no choice but to put his younger brother down.
As soon as Lili's claws landed, they shot towards Xie Chen like a small cannonball.
"gentlemen!!!"
He shouted very loudly, his wet eyes sparkling as if they held tiny stars.
Xie Chen held the kitten in his arms, and the coldness in his eyes finally dissipated.
He lowered his eyes, stroked the kitten's head, and said softly, "Let's go back."
"Where are you going back to?" Bai Si asked unhappily.
Xie Chen glanced at him and said calmly, "Go back to the hospital. Lili hasn't been discharged yet."
"So you're keeping them here?"
Bai Si said, "I'm much more effective than those doctors. I just cured you."
Upon hearing this, Xie Chen thanked him.
After thanking them, I still took the kitten into the car and took it to the hospital.
Bai Si stared at the disappearing exhaust fumes, his cold, cat-like eyes filled with resentment.
At this moment, in the car.
Bai Li sat on Xie Chen's lap, tilting her head back and looking at Xie Chen expectantly.
"Sir, are you alright?"
Bai Li pressed close to him and asked worriedly.
"It's alright now."
Xie Chen replied, "You still need to rest well these next few days. Your older brother just said you had another fever."
Bai Li nodded obediently, carefully noting down everything Xie Chen said.
When they returned to the ward, Bai Lin was still there.
When Bai Lin saw that Xie Chenzhen had really brought Lili back, he was quite surprised.
"You actually found the fourth brother?"
Back in the days on Monster Mountain, finding the fourth brother was incredibly difficult for them.
The fourth brother is good at hide-and-seek, but none of them are very good at finding the cat.
Xie Chen didn't mention the locator; he only said he'd run into it before changing the subject.
The entire night has passed by in the blink of an eye.
Xie Chen knew that Bai Lin hadn't rested yet, so he advised him, "Brother, I'll stay in the ward. You should go back first."
Bai Lin did not agree.
"I'll stay here and keep an eye on you; that way I'll feel more at ease."
"Need not."
Xie Chen continued to reassure him, "My health is fine now. I'll take care of Lili."
Bai Li glanced at her older brother and also felt that it must be hard for him not to sleep.
"Meow, meow meow."
He meowed at his older brother, urging him to go home and sleep.
Seeing this, Bai Lin hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she listened to them and went home.
After Bai Lin left, only Bai Li and Xie Chen remained in the ward.
"Sir, Brother Hei has been taken away by that person. Do you know how to find that person?"
Bai Li had been holding it in for so long, and she was incredibly worried about Hei Ge.
But what about that black guy? That human, he doesn't have any contact information.
Xie Chen put the kitten on the bed and sat down beside it. He heard the kitten meowing, picked up his phone, and called Yan Cen.
I called several times, but no one answered.
Xie Chen frowned and offered his guess: "They're probably busy over there and can't answer the phone."
Upon hearing this, Bai Li immediately wilted.
"I'm a little scared."
He thought of the usually imposing and cool Black Brother, what if he really failed...?
From now on, their territory will no longer have such a powerful cat boss protecting them.
"I'm not afraid."
Xie Chen comforted the dejected kitten and even leaned down to kiss it: "That black-footed cat will definitely be fine."
Bai Li was not comforted by these words.
Because he saw it with his own eyes, the black guy was struck by lightning and turned completely black.
When he tucked the black man into his arms, the black man didn't move at all; his whole body was ice cold.
Bai Li became increasingly upset as she thought about it.
With a snap, without any warning, he transformed into a human and appeared in front of Xie Chen.
"gentlemen."
Bai Li threw herself into his arms and buried her face in the crook of his neck: "Give me a hug."
The cat is too small; even with its paws outstretched, it can't hug the big man.
So, in order to hold onto the gentleman, he had no choice but to transform into human form.
“Lili”.
Xie Chen, who was being held by Bai Li, stiffened and his throat tightened.
Lili transformed again this time, but she didn't conjure up any clothes.
He closed his eyes, trying his best to calm himself down, but when he opened his mouth, his voice was slightly hoarse: "Sweetie, wrap yourself in your clothes... and the blanket."
Changing clothes is a lot of work, as Lili once said.
Xie Chen didn't expect him to conjure up clothes, but for now he needed him to wrap himself up properly.
Bai Li noticed Xie Chen's stiffness and paused for a moment.
He sat up straight, tilted his head, and looked at Xie Chen, who had his eyes closed.
"Sir, why are you closing your eyes?"
In Bai Li's view, the master bathed him every day, and after he became human, the master even dressed him.
Therefore, in front of Mr., the purebred monster cat who had never experienced nine years of compulsory education in humans was completely unaware of the unspeakable danger hidden in his behavior.
Xie Chen reached for the blanket and wrapped the cat, who had just turned into a human, in it before opening his eyes.
"Lili, you need to wear clothes in front of me from now on."
"Sir, won't you let me wear it?"
Bai Li blinked and gave him an example: "The master said that my buttons are all messed up!"
So his husband always buttoned his shirts for him.
One of the people involved, who dotes on their cat, sighed, unsure how to explain it to their feline companion.
Buttoning up your shirt in the morning is a proper way to take good care of your cat.
But like now, when it's still dark, he's in bed, and the cat is naked, snuggling into his arms—that has a different meaning altogether.
There were several sets of clothes belonging to Xie Bofang in the ward, including pajamas.
Xie Chen got out of bed, grabbed some clothes, and tried his best to clear his mind as he dressed the cat.
After some fuss, the two of them finally lay down on the bed together.
"Go to sleep."
Xie Chen hasn't had a moment's rest since he woke up. Finding the cat, bringing it home, and comforting it—he's been so busy he hasn't even had time to deal with the pile of memories that have suddenly appeared in his mind.
The ward is quiet now, so he and Lili can get some rest.
Bai Li pressed her face against Xie Chen's chest, silently counting Xie Chen's heartbeats.
Once, twice, three times.
He fell asleep again to the sound of his husband's heartbeat.
Daylight.
Bai Li was woken up by her phone ringing; Xie Chen, unusually, was still asleep.
Bai Li, still half asleep, climbed over him and picked up the ringing phone from the bedside table.
There is a password on the phone screen.
Xie Chen didn't know how it was set up; even connecting to a phone call required unlocking.
However, he usually unlocks with his fingerprint, so it doesn't affect the speed of answering calls.
Bai Li glanced at the caller ID; it was Yan Cen.
Yan Cen.
Still half-asleep, Bai Li only felt that the name sounded familiar.
Author's Note: Fun Fact: Black-footed cats aren't actually black; they're patterned tabby cats with stripes, very small in size, and excellent hunters!
Kiss.
