The topic of the arranged marriage was unilaterally ended by Xie Chen before he even arrived at the company.
To distract Bai Li, Xie Chen, after getting out of the car, went out of his way to tell him some things to keep in mind while working on the show.
"Remember to protect yourself."
Xie Chen led him to the scene and asked him gently, "If someone tries to bully you, Lili, what should you do?"
"Fight him."
Bai Li answered without hesitation.
When he was a cat, if he was bullied, he would scratch back. All the other monsters did the same.
Xie paused for a moment, then reminded them, "Fighting is not allowed on the production team."
Bai Li frowned and began to think of a new solution.
After a while.
Xie Chen himself gave the answer: "If anyone bullies you, or if you feel something is wrong, come find me immediately, call me, understand?"
Bai Li nodded.
"Okay! I understand."
He always nodded obediently and remembered what Xie Chen said.
Tan Yi also joined the production team.
He and Bai Liu couldn't find Xie Chen at his place this morning, so they came to the production crew again, waiting here to ambush him.
When Bai Li saw her third brother and her sixth brother with messy white curly hair beside him, her eyes lit up with joy. She broke free from Xie Chen's large hand and ran over.
"three--"
Before he could even utter the words "Third Brother," Tan Yi interrupted him.
"Wait a moment."
This was in a public place, and many people were watching. They didn't want to be gossiped about.
He walked past Bai Li and went to Xie Chen to say something to him.
Bai Liu was an ordinary person, so he naturally didn't have the same reservations as Tan Yi.
"Lili, is it really you??"
Bai Liu stared intently at the boy in front of her, her fists clenched so tightly that she was overcome with emotion.
Bai Li blinked and called out in a clear voice, "Sixth Brother!"
The familiar Sixth Brother made Bai Liu's eyes itch, and he pulled Bai Li around and went into an empty lounge.
Some people are quite curious about their relationship, but none of them know Bai Liu, so they can't guess what it is.
In the lounge.
Bai Liu hugged her transformed younger brother tightly, her voice choked with uncontrollable sobs.
"Thank goodness, thank goodness you've transformed into human form."
Before turning eighteen, during this dangerous timeline, she finally took human form.
Bai Li let his sixth brother hug him, and he raised his hand to pat his sixth brother's back comfortingly.
"Sixth Brother, from now on I'll be just like you guys."
They can transform into human form just like before, instead of staying in their cat form forever.
Bai Liu hugged her younger brother tightly for a long time before she could finally calm down.
The two were talking in the lounge when Tan Yi and Xie Chen came in.
"Lili, let your third brother take a look!"
The brothers were very happy, while Xie Chen watched from the side.
After everyone calmed down from their excitement, Tan Yi started talking to Bai Li about serious business.
"Lili, Xie Shen and I just had a chat and made a decision."
"What?" Bai Li asked blankly.
"We are withdrawing from the judging panel, but of course, we will still participate in the show."
If they completely withdraw, it will be difficult for Starlight Entertainment to explain, and the audience will feel like they've been tricked.
Bai Li is a contestant, so he and Xie Chen must avoid any appearance of impropriety.
Otherwise, online public opinion will not let Lili off the hook, and no matter how she behaves, she will be subject to malicious speculation.
Rather than that, it would be better to let Lili stay in the production crew cleanly.
Bai Li doesn't go online much. He only uses the high-tech phone Xie Chen gave him to send WeChat messages and make phone calls to his husband and brother.
Therefore, he naturally knew less about what was happening online than Xie Chen and Tan Yi.
"good."
Tan Yi ruffled Bai Li's hair: "I guess we can't continue recording today. You go back first, I need to talk to them."
The decision not to serve as a judge was made on short notice, so there's still more to discuss.
Xie Chen didn't need such a complicated process; he could just tell Xie Mao on WeChat.
Anyway, his role as a special guest judge was basically just for show; he wouldn't have much power to decide which contestant stayed or left.
After spending half a day on set, sure enough, the director announced that filming was to be stopped.
When Bai Li was about to leave, she was stopped by a fellow contestant.
Xie Chen and Bai Liu are waiting outside right now; they are not here.
Bai Li didn't make any friends, so she was always alone.
It was Diao Ling who called out to him. Diao Ling stared straight at him and asked, "Get straight to the point."
"What is your relationship with Xie Chen?"
The answer to this question was found on the trending topics, but Diao Ling still thinks it's impossible.
How could someone like Xie Chen, known for his cold-heartedness and aloofness, possibly have feelings for a little boy?
Who knows? Maybe she's just looking for a plaything. If it's a plaything-and-master relationship, then asking her that question would definitely make the other person feel humiliated.
Bai Li glanced at Diao Ling; he could sense that this person's intentions were not good.
Since that's the case, he doesn't need to bother with them.
"I don't want to tell you?"
Bai Li bluntly replied, "I'm not familiar with you at all."
So, why should she come up here and ask her husband?
Bai Li left after saying those words.
I used to really like Bai Li, that cool girl, but I ended up laughing out loud.
"So cute."
The cool girl looked at Bai Li's retreating figure and said with a smile, "I thought he had no temper."
Who knew that when she gets angry, it's so funny?
Feeling humiliated, Diao Ling gritted her teeth in anger and turned to get her phone to call Lin Chao.
Lin Chao is a generous sugar daddy; he fulfills many of her requests.
This time, she wanted Lin Chao to help her get revenge.
Outside.
Bai Liu and Xie Shen were standing together, and Bai Liu was asking him for details about Li Li's transformation.
Xie Chen avoided some details and told him everything he knew.
"Now that Lili has taken human form, you two can't sleep together anymore."
Bai Liu glanced at Xie Chen beside him and cautiously issued a notice: "Lili is still young. If she gets too close to you, it's not good. Mr. Xie, what do you think?"
Xie Chen naturally knew he needed to keep his distance from Bai Li.
He said calmly, "Don't worry, I'm not that much of a beast."
He can sleep while cuddling a kitten, but he won't actually sleep while cuddling Lili's human form.
The two reached a rough agreement, and just then, Bai Li also came out.
"Sixth Brother, sir."
Bai Li leaned closer and looked at them: "We can go back now."
Bai Liu stayed up half the night and didn't get a good night's sleep. He didn't last long before returning to his room in the villa, where he turned into a cat and fell into a deep sleep.
But it's still early.
Bai Li accompanied Xie Chen to the company.
Inside the company, whenever Xie Chen appeared, passing employees couldn't help but stare at him.
Bai Li gripped his hand tightly, feeling somewhat uncomfortable under their gazes.
"Sir, a lot of people are looking at us," Bai Li said in a low voice.
Xie Chen remained calm and coaxed him, "I'm looking at you because you're handsome, don't be afraid."
Bai Li wasn't entirely sure if he was good-looking or not. Having seen so many handsome men like his boss and brothers, and with the added filter of his boss and brothers, Bai Li felt that he was the worst-looking one.
A few minutes later.
Bai Li was led into the office by Xie Chen. Anna, who had been looking forward to it for a long time, finally saw her boss's rumored lover and had a smile on her face.
"boss."
Anna handed Xie Chen a cup of coffee and asked him, "What's the name of the person you brought? I'll go prepare some drinks and snacks for him."
"Bai Li".
Bai Li, who often came to Xie Chen's office to work with him, was no stranger to Anna.
He answered proactively, "You? You can also call me Lili."
"Lili?"
Anna paused for a moment: "Boss, your kitten..."
Isn't her name also Lili?
Seeing Anna's bewildered expression, Xie Chen calmly said, "That little kitten is his pet, so it's named Lili."
Anna choked.
grass.
It turns out that the little kitten that was all the rage in the company and was the boss's favorite actually belonged to this young boy.
Furthermore, the boy's name is Bai Li, so the kitten is named Lili.
The boss was used to cuddling and kissing the kitten all the time, but it turns out, the reason for this was actually here.
After Anna finished imagining this scenario, her gaze towards Bai Li hardened.
She understood.
This Lili is the true goddess, their husband's rightful wife.
"Boss, Lili."
Anna said, "I'll go and prepare some things right away."
"Go," Xie Chen instructed.
Only the two of them remained in the office. In the past, Bai Li would always sleep on Xie Chen's lap, but now that he had transformed, he didn't feel sleepy as much anymore.
"gentlemen."
Bai Li stood in front of him, looking at him expectantly. She asked, "What do I want to do?"
If he doesn't sleep, he doesn't know what to do.
"Watch some TV, or play some games."
Afraid that he would get bored, Xie Chen got up and led him to the sofa, where he used the projector to play games.
The game's external sound was also not turned off.
Xie Chen listened to the sounds of his child playing games and didn't find it noisy. He just felt at ease knowing that the child was around.
Time passed little by little.
That night.
Xie Chen, who had had enough of being on the trending topics, posted a Weibo post amidst much anticipation.
[Xie Chen V: Regarding yesterday's clarification live stream, I apologize; it was a mistake on my part. Someone does live in my house, but I'm not currently in a relationship. He's still young, and I hope everyone will refrain from excessive interference.]
After posting this update, Xie Chen even picked out a few top comments to reply to.
For example, some people have boldly speculated that the boy might be an illegitimate child who secretly moved into Xie Shen's house, which is why Xie Shen was unaware of it before.
Xie Chen replied seriously: "He's not an illegitimate child, he's my little one."
For example, someone might ask how young the other person is.
Xie Chen personally asked Bai Li about this comment.
"Lili, when is your birthday?"
"The 22nd of the twelfth lunar month."
Bai Li was standing in front of the wardrobe in the bedroom looking at new clothes, and she didn't even turn her head when she answered him.
The 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month.
Xie Chen checked the calendar; Bai Li's birthday was in a month.
"gentlemen."
Just as Xie Chen was thinking about how to celebrate Bai Li's birthday, Bai Li spoke first.
"I don't have pajamas."
He reached out and rummaged through the wardrobe, starting to pick out Xie Chen's clothes.
Xie Chen sensed something was wrong and walked over in a few steps.
"What do you need pajamas for?"
When he went shopping today, he bought a whole set of clothes, including the innerwear, but he was really missing pajamas.
But he thought that if Bai Li turned back into a cat when she slept, she wouldn't need pajamas.
But looking at the current situation, something doesn't seem right.
really.
Bai Li lived up to his guess.
"I don't want to sleep like a cat tonight."
The kitten is too small; he can only snuggle up to the gentleman a little bit.
If I were to sleep as a human, I could hug my husband tightly!
"no."
Xie Chen pressed down on his hand, his Adam's apple bobbing, and said to stop him, "Lili, if you want to sleep like a human, then we can't sleep in the same bed."
"You sleep here, I'll go to the guest room."
The master bedroom bed is large, and Bai Li is used to sleeping in it. Xie Chen had already planned that if Li Li continued to sleep in human form, he would leave the room to Li Li.
Bai Li tilted her head, puzzled, and asked, "Why can't we sleep together once we become human?"
"Because, because only partners sleep like that."
After Xie Chen finished speaking, he thought Bai Li might ask further questions or be unhappy.
But to his surprise, Bai Li simply exclaimed "Oh!" and then, with a snap, transformed back into a little kitten.
"gentlemen."
The little kitten sat steadily on his feet, its chubby bottom pressing against his feet. It tilted its head back and meowed at him, "Now we can sleep together!"
Bai Li was carefree, and besides, he understood it during the day.
The gentleman still doesn't acknowledge the childhood betrothal.
So, before turning her husband into his fiancé, he still needs to work hard and not be a rogue cat who tries to take her husband by force. The little kitten on her paws has wet, soft, and innocent amber eyes.
Xie Chen's heart softened, and he bent down to pick up the kitten.
Even after turning into a cat, Bai Li still gained the right to continue sleeping with her husband.
For several days in a row, he recorded variety shows during the day, and when the show ended at night, he was the first to run out.
Fortunately, the seafood restaurant owner was with his wife and daughter, so Bai Li could temporarily not go to work.
As for the general store, he and Meimei went there again.
When Bai Li met Mei Mei, she still used her cat form.
"Big brother."
Meimei stared at the door of the general store, worried: "This owner hasn't been back for a long time."
Bai Li nodded in deep agreement.
The two cats wiped the floor in front of the door clean and sat down together to guard the door.
As they watched, a strange howl reached their ears.
"Aww—"
That sound was strange, a bit like a dog, but not exactly a bark.
Bai Li and Mei Mei exchanged a glance and sat up from the ground.
"Big brother, should we go take a look?"
Bai Li hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's go take a look."
Let's see if it's one of the dogs that's really in trouble.
