She found her phone and typed, “Does it hurt a lot? Maybe we should go to the hospital.

 

Luo Ke licked her bottom lip, “No, it doesn’t hurt.”

 

Luo Ke’s ear tips were red though, since when Lin Sifei was kissing her just now, she thought about Lin Sifei yearning for her touch, wrapped in a blanket. 

 

Luo Ke took in a deep breath and adjusted the temperature of the air conditioning to two degrees lower, and pointed the fan to herself. She reminded herself to be a lawful human; it was not appropriate to be thinking about a cat like that.

 

Lin Sifei, seeing her change the air conditioning to blow straight at herself, scrunched her nose. Hmmph, she didn’t let Lin Sifei do so, but did it herself. 

 

But karma came quite quickly, since, when they got home that night, Luo Ke felt that her nose was a bit stuffy.

 

“I think I have a little bit of a cold,” she said, her voice vibrating as her stuffy nose didn’t allow the passage of air, which added a little cuteness and helplessness to her voice. 

 

Lin Sifei closed the door before turning back to a human, throwing on a robe and then guided Luo Ke beside her, “And you were talking about me but you caught a cold yourself. Sit down, I’ll go find some medicine for you.”

 

Luo Ke laughed as she accepted Lin Sifei’s help, “I just caught a cold, didn’t break my leg.”

 

Lin Sifei glared at her and pouted, “I’m taking care of you but you only pay attention to this… I have to think that the points you concentrate on really are stupid.”

 

Luo Ke thought that she had some reason; the points she focused on did deviate from normalcy. She probably should have thanked Lin Sifei for her caring attitude, but instead, she pinched Lin Sifei’s cheek. 

 

“You shouldn’t pout to other people from now on.”

 

“Why not?” Lin Sifei’s mouth, being squished into a flat duck shape, couldn’t speak clearly, “Am I not cute like this?”

 

It’s because you’re too cute. Luo Ke again had the scene of Lin Sifei pouting with Feng Xiao there, “You are an actress, if you make an expression like this everyday on TV, people will say that you are fake.”

 

Lin Sifei hurriedly saved herself from the face-pinching, and rubbed her cheeks while she complained, “I don’t care about what they say, and plus, my concept on TV won’t be all cutesy, so I won’t pout.”

 

Luo Ke sighed, slightly more satisfied, at least there wouldn’t be a lot of people seeing it. “But still, don’t pout towards other people, you have to keep your persona, you know.”

 

“But still, it’s useful against the directors. Especially, if your camera angle wasn’t good enough, you can complain like this and they will let you do a retake.” Lin Sifei shared her experience. 

 

Luo Ke, according to Lin Sifei’s description, imagined a scene where Lin Sifei was hugging onto Director Chen’s arm, nicely complaining and pouting. 

 

Her face immediately darkened, “No! Director Chen has a family!”

 

Lin Sifei immediately glared at her, “What are you thinking about, I was saying that if you act slightly cuter no one would refuse you. What are you actually thinking about, dirty-minded.”

 

Luo Ke lifted a hand to her forehead and waved her other hand, “I think I don’t have a clear head right now, ignore me.”

 

Lin Sifei worriedly reached out a hand to test her forehead, “You don’t have a fever, do you.”

 

She ran to get the medical kit, used the thermometer device to find her temperature, and picked out a type of cold medicine. After all this, Lin Sifei went to pour some hot water for Luo Ke. 

 

According to the thermometer, Luo Ke’s body temperature was fine, so it was probably just a little cold.

""

 

Lin Sifei made sure Luo Ke drank all of the medicine and then took the cup, “Just go wash up and sleep soon, you really can’t work anymore today.”

 

“I still have a little…”

 

Lin Sifei put her hands on her hips and stared at her, “Then you go to the bed and pull the covers over yourself. I’ll warm some food for you and I’ll bring it up for you to eat.”

 

“No need, I…”

 

“Listen to me!” Lin Sifei said as she heaved up Luo Ke’s laptop case and ran up the stairs. 

 

Luo Ke, left with no other options, could only follow her upstairs. 

 

Lin Sifei finished cleaning up their bed, made her snuggle in, and also threw her a jacket, “You have to make sure you keep warm, I’m going downstairs now.”

 

Luo Ke still worriedly clasped her arm, “Do you know how to use a microwave?”

 

“I looked it up, it seems pretty convenient.” Lin Sifei said as she waved her phone. 

 

Dinner had very diverse dishes since Lin Sifei searched up dishes that were suitable to eat while one had a cold. Of course, she got rid of the few bad ones, and then warmed some food up, plated it, and took the plate upstairs. 

 

There was a little table suitable for placing on a bed. Originally, Lin Sifei had gotten in to watch movies in bed, but it seemed good to use as a little table to eat too. 

 

Luo Ke watched her move the plates of food over, and tried to object, “It’s really not that bad, I can go downstairs to eat.”

""

 

“No no no, I’ve already brought it all up,” Lin Sifei placed some rice down and shoved a pair of chopsticks in Luo Ke’s hand, “Let’s eat.”

 

She sat across from Luo Ke, their heads nearly together, eating on that small table. 

 

Luo Ke, chewing, raised her head to look at Lin Sifei, and, seeing her slightly puffed up cheeks, couldn’t help but laugh. 

 

She didn’t when it started, but now she was used to having someone next to her, to accompany her, when eating. Her life at home wasn’t just taking care of business, eating, and going to sleep; there was now enjoyment along with it. 

 

“If you turn into a human now, what about tomorrow?”

 

“The two important characters I’ve already chosen, the others Director Chen will take care of, otherwise, why spend the money and ask him to run the project,” Lin Sifei said as she picked up a piece of red braised pork and bit into it. Immediately, she narrowed her eyes from the enjoyment of the taste, and she pointed it out to Luo Ke, “This one is good, try it.”

 

Luo Ke also picked up a piece, and when she met Lin Sifei’s gaze, they both smiled. 

 

When it came time to sleep, Luo Ke’s nose was still a little stuffy, which made her slightly agitated. 

 

Lin Sifei laid parallel to her and reached out hand to smooth out Luo Ke’s back, lightly humming a lullaby. 

 

Luo Ke reached out for her waist, lightly exhaling near her neck joint. 

 

Feeling the person beside her slowly drift into sleep, Lin Sifei carefully got out of bed to stretch her slightly stiff muscles.

 

She took a sip from a cup of water as she walked up to the front of the bed and opened the curtain slightly, watching the silent roads of the neighborhood. 

 

She stared at a dim streetlamp for a bit, falling into a daze, but it was quickly broken by a car entering her field of vision. 

 

Yuan Mo’s car. 

 

She saw Yan Yafei come out of Yuan Mo’s car, seemingly crying and brushing away tears. Yuan Mo hugged her shoulders as they walked into their villa. 

 

Lin Sifei watched the scene, unsurprised. As she had guessed, Yuan Mo would not wake up from one reminder.

 

She saw Yuan Mo pull open the door and the ragdoll cat push his head out, nuzzling Yuan Mo’s leg. Yuan Mo picked him up and grasped his paw to make a waving gesture at Yan Yafei.
 

Hmm, interesting. Lin Sifei thought as she thought of her own tail, memories of Yan Yafei pulling on her own tail surfacing. That cat has a fluffier tail than I do, Yan Yafei would probably not let go of that chance. 

 

She seemed to have found an ally. 
 

“Xiaoxiao, why are you not sleeping?” Luo Ke’s tired voice sounded. 

 

Lin Sifei was slightly startled and immediately put down the curtain, climbing back into bed, “I got up to drink some water, go to sleep.”

 

“Your throat must be sore, you don’t have to sing next time.”

 

“I’m not tired.” Lin Sifei smiled as she circled her arms around Luo Ke’s waist, “I had fun singing.”

 

Luo Ke also smiled briefly and hugged Lin Sifei back, pulling Lin Sifei down to face her. Lin Sifei watched Luo Ke slowly drift back into sleep, (perhaps swallowing a few times in the process), and, in a moment of impulsiveness, shifted to kiss Luo Ke lightly on the lips. 

 

As soon as she pulled away, Lin Sifei felt her whole body steaming. Time to sleep, I’m so tired.

Air conditioning: You’re welcome? Lin Sifei: No thanks to you.

I’m back. ORZ sorry for being away for so long, but that was some much needed time for me to finish up college applications (wish me luck) and now I’ll be posting much more regularly (hopefully)!!! I have a slight backlog I have to edit so as reparations I also will probably post tomorrow, see you then!
