When the Little Miss Nurse went out, there was another fierce battle fought over the closing of the door and the opposition of it. Xia Rong struggled with the difficulty to keep the door from being completely opened as he said, “Su Chi’s agent will come in a bit to answer everyone’s questions. For now, can you let Su Chi have a rest first, yes? Okay?”
After finally closing the door with much difficulty, Xia Rong heaved a long sigh while leaning against the door for support. “…So tired.”
Su Chi then stated, “The apple isn’t finished yet.”
“…” At this, Xia Rong couldn’t help but give him a glare. “You’re getting energy from ordering me around, aren’t you?”
A chuckle escaped Su Chi with a puff, and he said, “Just teasing you. Well now, don’t worry about it, I’m fine.”
Xia Rong’s heart jumped: Su Chi’s sharpness really is on point, even this was enough for him to catch on to the fact that he himself was feeling heartache for him right now…
“Were you feeling heartache for me just now?”
Xia Rong: “…”
He swears he wouldn’t ever play another straight ball again. It really isn’t until they’re hitting himself that he finally understands how painful they are!
It wasn’t as if Su Chi just had to get an answer from him, so seeing how Xia Rong didn’t respond, he just kept a light smile and raised his free hand to pat the other on the head. “Okay now, go over and sleep for a while. Han-ge will arrive in a bit.”
Xia Rong had originally thought he would have a difficult time falling asleep. After all, the gossip reporters were still blocking outside the door, and Su Chi’s agent and the police may also arrive at any time. Yet, unexpectedly, as soon as he laid down on the small bed and pulled up the thin blanket to cover himself, he felt his consciousness slip away and he fell asleep.
Afterward, perhaps because he had been sleeping too soundly, when Xia Rong opened his eyes back up again, he felt as if all his exhaustion had melted away, as if he had actually slept for a full century. He smoothly picked up Su Chi’s cell phone that was right next to him and took a look at the time. He found that it was eight o’clock in the morning, so in reality, he had only slept for two hours.
After seeing the time, Xia Rong also planned to take a look at the person who should be in the other bed in passing… But with this one look, it caused him to almost flip over and sit up一 Where Su Chi had been laying, it was now empty!
Xia Rong felt a thin layer of sweat suddenly seep out from his palm. Then, just as he was about to turn and get out of bed, unexpectedly, as soon as he moved, he felt something soft and warm at his waist.
Xia Rong looked down, “…”
When on earth did this guy run over and climb up!
With a complicated expression, Xia Rong looked at this silver […] British Shorthair1 that was nestling to his waist. Because of the thick fur, its sleeping face was already a bit flattened. The small stomach was rising and falling as it breathed, and as for its four limbs, the wrappings had even shrunk in proportion to his body! The two forelegs were wrapped in thick gauze, so in this case, they really turned into true and authentic small steam buns. Meanwhile, there was still a cast on one of the hind legs, which should have been hanging in suspension but was now laying propped up on Xia Rong’s abdomen.
The entire thing was a bit comical. Xia Rong supposed that it was to make it more convenient for later when he turns back into a human, so he wouldn’t have to bandage it again. However, with his limbs all wrapped up like that, Xia Rong really didn’t have a clue how he actually managed to climb up…
Does he dare to move? He doesn’t dare, he doesn’t dare.
Xia Rong was afraid of waking up this cat that was sleeping oh-so-sweetly and so he could only stiffen his body to maintain this awkward posture. After a while, he finally couldn’t help it any longer and went to give the cat’s foreleg a pinch. Then, after another while had passed, as he continued to watch as the other slept with his mouth slightly open, self-consciously, he seemed to want to stretch out his hand to open the other’s mouth and touch the soft, wet edges.
Fortunately, Su Chi’s cell phone had started to ring again just as the “evil hand” reached into the other’s mouth, before he did such an errant act.
With some unwillingness, Xia Rong picked up the phone and saw the name displayed was ‘Han Lianghao’. Unexpectedly, the other had arrived so soon.
The silver […] British Shorthair in his arms also started to open his misty eyes in a daze, blinking his large dark-brown eyes at Xia Rong.
Since the other had woken up, Xia Rong also didn’t continue being polite and poked the other’s forehead with his finger. “Hurry up and change back, it seems Han Lianghao should have arrived.”
“Meow?”— Transform here?
“In your dreams!” Three black lines dropped from the top of Xia Rong’s forehead2. “Do you want to collapse my bed? Go back and change on your own bed!”
The silver Shorthair couldn’t continue to pretend to be stupid anymore and so took the opportunity to hug Xia Rong’s wrist to give it a few large licks.
Xia Rong: “…”
He caught the silver Shorthair’s fluffy tail in one grab, then starting from the back, rubbed it up and down several times with great fervor before letting go again.
If you lick me, then I’ll just rub you!
This childish bout of retaliation between the two continued until silver Shorthair flexibly jumped back to the other bed. As soon as the blanket was lifted, the cat slipped right inside and then, in the blink of an eye, an arm stretched out and in a beautiful, pleasant voice: “…Xia Rong?”
With a =_= face, Xia Rong handed the other the cell phone and listened to the other connect the call while sounding all so prim and proper, “En, Han-ge… I was asleep just now and didn’t hear it… You’ve gotten off the plane? I can’t get out of here for the time being, the reporters are blocking the door… The security guards I asked for should also be arriving soon, you go pick them up, en, yeah, right at…”
By the time Han Lianghao had managed to rush over, he saw this sight of the two men respectively sitting on an individual bed, upright and still, very sanctimonious(?).
The security guards he brought over were keeping order outside the door, so finally, there was more or less an instant for them to take a breather.
“Su Chi, what exactly is going on? After hearing that you had been kidnapped, I was almost scared to death. Who did it? Is it serious? How long would you need to be hospitalized?” Han Lianghao asked in succession.
“The problem isn’t big, mainly bruises and abrasions. The police will come over in a bit, I’ll give the details then. Hospitalization will be about two weeks. For work during the period, if they can be postponed, postpone it, if they can’t, then cancel it.” As he said this, as if he noticed Xia Rong’s gaze filled with guilt, Su Chi turned his head over to the other and gave him a smile, “It’s okay, I didn’t have much work to begin with. I’ve been waiting for a drama to start filming recently, so in fact, I’m quite free.”
Seeing Su Chi comfort Xia Rong like this, Han Lianghao gave Xia Rong a meaningful look. “…”
Xia Rong: “…”
Almost forgot, there’s still someone here with a misunderstanding!
Xia Rong nodded and said to Su Chi, “It doesn’t matter even if you rest a bit longer, I can pay the penalty for you.”
Han Lianghao, whose gaze at Xia Rong was becoming ever more subtle: “…”
Xia Rong, who was inexplicably even a little proud: ^_^
“By the way, Han-ge, in a bit, you go out and tell them that I was accidentally injured due to personal reasons and will not disclose the details to the public. If they must have an explanation no matter what, then you can just say… I was mountain climbing or something similar. I will rest for two to three weeks. Xia Rong is here because he’s a friend and had come to see how I was. As for the rest, it’s up to you to decide.” Su Chi then opened his mouth again and continued, “Don’t just have them wait in vain for an entire morning. At least like this, they’ll still have something to head back with.”
Han Lianghao sighed and said, “They wouldn’t even give you some time to rest. Alas, yet you still…”
“They’re just working to eat, that’s all,” Su Chi said with a smile, “Moreover, I’m also doing this so they would write more positively about me, and also Xia Rong. I’m not at a loss. Managing these sorts of relationships well, at the end of the day, it’s still more beneficial than harmful. Well then, go.”
Han Lianghao hummed in response and went out, to which Xia Rong looked on with a bit of envy. “Su Chi, your agent listens to you so obediently, how did you do it? Every day, Yi-jie would go on about ‘this isn’t allowed’ or ‘that wouldn’t do’…”
“Isn’t it because you’re still young? You were so tender and silly when you first entered the [entertainment] circle, Yi-jie had to worry about you a lot, so now it has become a habit. That’s also normal,” Su Chi said with a faint smile, “Yi-jie’s capability is really strong, perfect to urge and supervise you…”
The key point that Xia Rong managed to catch on was actually: “Hm? When I first entered the circle? Nevermind about the tender part… but what do you mean by silly?”
“…cough.” Su Chi’s eyes drifted around with unease, just in time to see his mobile phone light up again. Although it was a strange number, which he might not have picked during usual times, yet now in order to change the topic, he answered it without any hesitation. “Hello, how are you?”
“…Couldn’t you have picked up after we finished speaking.” Xia Rong was tortured by his curiosity and so couldn’t help but quip a complaint.
“…Xia Rong.” Yet Su Chi just so happened to look at him at this time, with a trace of strangeness in his expression. “It’s for you.”
“For me? Why would they call your phone to find me?” Xia Rong mumbled and received the cell phone from the other’s hand. “Hello? I’m Xia Rong.”
“Sure enough, I’ll be able to find you like this.” The other side sighed.
“Er… Yi, Yi-jie…?!”
“Didn’t you say you didn’t want to hype up a CP?” Shu Yi’s voice was deep with pain. “Then can you explain to me what’s going on with the current headline on the hot search?”
