Chapter 46 â Complaint
Shen Fangqi has been busy lately. He was at the police station every day, leaving only Shen Muan, Ruirui and White Gloves at home.
Ruirui liked White Gloves very much. Even when he ate, he brought the catâs rice bowl to the chair next to him so they could eat together.
White Gloves would take two bites of its own food, then straighten up to put its front paws on the table. Doing so, he looked at the food curiously. White Gloves would then lick his mouth and jump on the table. As soon as its claws aimed at the food on the table, it would smell a terrifying air and would immediately hide under the table on Shen Muanâs feet.
Ruirui was taken aback by White Gloveâs reaction. He looked at White Gloves under the table and asked worriedly, âBrother An An, whatâs wrong with White Gloves?â
âChu Yi has frightened it.â Shen Muan was a little distressed but found it a little funny. He put White Gloves in his arms, âRuirui, go open the door.â â
âOk.â Ruirui got up from the bottom of the table and ran to the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Chu Yi who was about to ring the doorbell.
Chu Yi asked in surprise: âAre you going home?â He didnât know that it was already decided for Ruirui to live in Shen Muanâs house. He thought the child was preparing to go back now.
Ruirui shook his head: âBrother An An asked me to open the door, he said you were here.â
Ruirui made room for Chu Yi to enter. After Chu Yi came in, he closed the door again.
âYouâre here.â Shen Muan walked to the entryway, his clothes were bulging, and a black tail could be seen poking out. He didnât even need to shake it.
âWhite Gloves?â Chu Yi remembered what Shen Muan said to him last time. He was curious to see this little guy again, but the other party seemed to be very scared. Chu Yi was about to retract his outstretched hand, but Shen Muan caught it.
Chu Yi was taken aback. He looked at Shen Muanâs face, but found that the opponentâs attention seemed to be on the little cat in his arms.
When Shen Muan grabbed Chu Yiâs hand, White Glovesâs level of fear slowly decreased. Under Shen Muanâs comfort, it finally popped out its head from Shen Muanâs arms.
âWhat happened to White Gloves?â Ruirui looked at White Gloves and felt worried. This was the first time he had seen White Gloves react like this. Even when Brother Fangqi scolded it, it had never been this afraid.
âItâs okay, itâs just a bit uncomfortable.â Shen Muan smiled faintly at Ruirui, âRuirui, will you go and get some snacks for White Gloves?â
âOkay!â Ruirui agreed, turned around and went into the kitchen.
âIs this child still in foster care at your house?â Chu Yi asked suddenly as he looked at Ruiruiâs back.
âYes, his grandparents have too poor health to take care of him.â Shen Muan grabbed Chu Yiâs hand and put it on the furry head on his chest.
White Gloves sniffed Chu Yiâs wrist. With Shen Muanâs breath on him, the breath that scared him seemed to fade away slowly.
The character of White Gloves was very good, especially in front of Shen Muan, his temper was way better than usual. Since it was Shen Muan who grabbed Chu Yiâs hand and put it on his head. He was no longer afraid, nor did he lose his temper.
This was the first time Chu Yi had touched such a well-behaved cat, he found it incredible that it was so well-behaved. He felt the furry touch and looked at Shen Muanâs smiling eyes with surprise.
âI thought that our physique might be the same as ordinary people, but it seemed that what I thought was different.â As he said this, Shen Muan suddenly let go of his hand. White Gloves immediately shook off the hand on his head wanting to drill into Shen Muanâs arms again.
This time, it was Chu Yi who grabbed Shen Muanâs hand first.
Ruirui stood at the door of the kitchen with a small bag of frozen dry food, looking here and there, with a blank expression. He didnât understand what they were doing.
To be honest, Chu Yi was quite excited. With his physique, even mosquitoes were reluctant to come over and bite him. Where he lived, let alone bugs, there were not even ants.
The flowers in the yard could only live well thanks to the careful care of the gardener.
But today Chu Yi found that he could neutralize his physique when he was in contact with Shen Muan, which made him feel pleasantly surprised. He realized that he and Shen Muan were really a good match for each other, werenât they?
Chu Yi grabbed Shen Muanâs hand. He wanted to take White Gloves out of Shen Muanâs clothes with his other hand but as soon as he stretched out his hand, he felt a pain in his calf.
Looking down, he saw Ruirui pointing at Chu Yi with the frozen dried food in a menacing manner and exclaimed, âRogue!â
It was Ruirui who kicked Chu Yi just now. He felt that Chu Yiâs movements were strange. He remembered about the people like this on the TV show he used to watch with his mother. His mother said, the people who did this kind of action were all gangsters!
In order to protect Brother An An, Ruirui rushed up regardless of whether he could beat Chu Yi or not.
Chu Yi never expected that he would be regarded as a hooligan one day. Shen Muan was almost unable to straighten his waist due to laughing so much.
Ruirui was a little confused. He watched Brother An An who kept laughing, and realized he may have made a mistake. Ruirui hurriedly ran to Shen Muanâs side, tugged at Shen Muanâs trouser legs and asked, âBrother An An, did I make a mistake?â
Chu Yi looked at Shen Muan helplessly. He couldnât understand Shen Muanâs smile, but he liked to see this smile. Every time he saw Shen Muanâs smile, Chu Yiâs mood would inexplicably get better.
Today was no exception.
It didnât matter if it was himself who was laughed at, as long as Shen Muan was happy.
âChu Yi just wanted to hold White Gloves, you misunderstood.â Shen Muan rubbed Ruiruiâs head. He was very happy that Ruirui wanted to protect him.
Ruirui blushed and apologized to Chu Yi somewhat embarrassedly: âIâm sorry, I made a mistakeâ¦â
âItâs okay.â Chu Yi wasnât bothered much by it.
White Gloves rushed out of Shen Muanâs arms and snatched the frozen dried food from Ruiruiâs hands. He ran to the sofa and bit the packaging bag with his mouth.
Ruirui immediately followed: âWhite Gloves, donât bite. Iâll open it for you. â
âMeow! Meow~â White Gloves rolled over and moved its body that was pressing down on the frozen dried food. Its two eyes kept watch on the food, for fear that Ruirui would eat it.
Shen Muan smiled and moved his gaze back which fell on Chu Yiâs hand. Chu Yi was still holding his hand.
Chu Yi quickly let go and smiled embarrassed. He found that Shen Muan didnât resent contact with him at all.
Just when Chu Yi wanted to say something, Ruirui suddenly shouted out, holding the empty bag. He complained about how excessive White Gloves was.
Chu Yi stared at Ruiruiâs back for a while, then turned his head to make a call to his nephew.
âSiyuan, Ruirui is still with Teacher An An, would you like to come and play?â Chu Yi said.
Hearing that Ruirui was still at Teacher An Anâs house, Chu Siyuan couldnât sit still for another second. He clamored to come to Teacher An Anâs house.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Chu Yi sent a message to the driver telling him to bring Chu Siyuan over.
âSiyuan said he wanted to come and play with Ruirui.â Chu Yi put the phone back in his pocket and said to Shen Muan.
âEh, is that so? Then letâs have dinner together in the evening.â Shen Muan smiled and opened the dried food Ruirui had just brought and put it on the ground. White Gloves rushed over immediately, but Shen Muan grabbed the back of its neck.
Chu Yi watched as Shen Muan put White Gloves in the cage, and then put the food outside the cage. White Gloves could reach it with his claws, but couldnât eat it.
Although Shen Muan was usually very gentle and lenient, he wouldnât condone such actions. This was punishment for bad behavior.
Ruirui felt a little distressed by White Gloves. Listening to the pitiful meows of White Gloves, Ruirui wanted to open the cage for it, but he had to listen to Brother An An.
So Ruirui simply hid far away, pretending that he couldnât hear the cry of White Gloves.
It seemed that because Chu Yi had stood close to Shen Muan for a while, White Gloves was not as scared as before when he saw him approach, but he still couldnât help being a little scared.
This situation was still much better than before.
Chu Yi stretched out a finger through the cage, trying to touch White Gloves, but was evaded.
âIgnore it, the more you ignore it, the more vigorous it will be.â Shen Muan went to pour Chu Yi a cup of tea. Chu Yi had already been here for a while, but only now did he remember this.
Chu Yi took the cup and sat on the sofa, his two long legs overlapped, and his whole body looked extremely handsome.
Shen Muan gave a silent sigh of admiration from the bottom of his heart. As expected of being the biggest pillar behind the villain, he was on another level.
âIs Siyuan already on the way?â Shen Muan asked.
âYes, he was clamoring to come. He probably found out that I came here secretly. He originally wanted to invite you to dinner.â Chu Yi thought that he could finally ask Shen Muan out for dinner alone, but they would again be accompanied by two light bulbs.
âLetâs eat here tonight. Iâll make it. It just so happens that my brother has been busy recently and wonât be coming back.â Shen Muan said with a smile, âI still need someone to help me wash the dishes.â
âIâll help you.â After Chu Yi said this, he seriously recalled the last time he washed the dishes.
Chu Yi, who had a good memory, finally pulled out a memory of washing dishes ten years ago from his mind. Such a simple matter was no big deal.
âOkay, then thank you.â Shen Muan started to plan out the diner menu. Itâs good that last time he bought some spices. Today he could just make some things that the children would like to eat.
White Gloves was still trying hard to eat the food outside its cage. When he figured he wouldnât be able to do it, he could only lie on the mat pitifully, making aggrieved sounds.
âWhy donât we let it out?â Chu Yi couldnât bear hearing such a pitiful cry. After all, this was the first time he had been able to be so gentle with a little cat, he felt very distressed.
âDonât get used to it.â Shen Muanâs simple words made White Gloves lose a chance to come out.
Although Chu Yi felt sorry for the little cat, Shen Muan had already spoken, he must listen to Shen Muan.
After a while, the doorbell rang.
Shen Muan wanted to open the door, but Chu Yi pressed him back.
âIt must be Chu Siyuan, Iâll go.â Chu Yi said.
Shen Muan thought so too.
As soon as Chu Yi opened the door, a figure rushed over like a small cannonball. When it was about to rush into Chu Yiâs arms, Chu Siyuan stopped.
He walked around his uncle with a look of disgust. He quickly took off his shoes, and ran barefoot to Teacher An An, who he had been in his heart the whole trip.
âTeacher An An!
âIâm here!â
âUncle and Ruirui can leave now, I can stay with you!â
