Lose My Heart to the Lovely Kitten Princess - Chapter 243
Chapter 243 Give Me a Hug
“What’s wrong with you?”
Chu Yunshen regained his composure once again. He frowned and his thick eyebrows deeply knitted together as he thought of the warmth he felt when he touched Cheng Xiaoxiao’s hand and the heat when she hugged him tightly with her petite arms. His thin lips were tightly pursed as he waited for Cheng Xiaoxiao’s answer.
“Me? What?”
Cheng Xiaoxiao still nodded rhythmically. She slowly repeated Chu Yunshen’s words, but only a few words that couldn’t make up a sentence.
Chu Yunshen finally understood that Cheng Xiaoxiao could not answer his question normally, and there he was, asking her questions and talking to her earnestly.
“I’ll take you to rest.”
Chu Yunshen, whose hands were tied, compromised, and a trace of helplessness was obvious in his tone.
“Me? Rest?” Cheng Xiaoxiao pointed at her own chest, and the rhythm of this movement was basically the same as her nod. However, because of this movement, her whole body shook along with the frequency of her head tapping.
“Yes, I’ll take you to rest.”
Cheng Xiaoxiao was wabbling again. Chu Yunshen walked over and caught her by holding her arm and shoulder when she staggered and was about to fall. He was coaxing her all the while.
If Cheng Xiaoxiao were awake, she would have been so happy that she would go crazy. This was the moment she dreamed of! This was the voice she wanted to hear the most.
Unfortunately, there were no ifs.
Chu Yunshen’s voice was so gentle and soft, it was a voice even he himself had never heard before. Even with this voice, he was still worried that he might provoke Cheng Xiaoxiao and fail to make her listen to him.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was like a robot with a depleting battery, and her silly state occurred intermittently. At this time, when Chu Yunshen came to help her, she laughed out loud.
“Hehehe, give me a hug!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao suddenly raised her arms, and she would’ve hit Chu Yunshen’s face again had Chu Yunshen not dodged her in time.
“Why are you… forget it.”
Chu Yunshen pressed down Cheng Xiaoxiao’s disobedient arms again. In the face of Cheng Xiaoxiao’s sudden “dangerous” move, Chu Yunshen could not think of any other way but to endure it.
“Give me a hug!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao, who was refused her request of Chu Yunshen’s exclusive cuddle, was once again in an uproar. She squinted and grunted in dismay, looking as if she would cry out loud if Chu Yunshen did not hug her this instant.
“Stop it, greedy woman!”
Chu Yunshen did not obey her request. As long as Cheng Xiaoxiao intended to extend her arms, Chu Yunshen would press her arms down. Eventually, he directly pressed her arms and did not let go.
Cheng Xiaoxiao, who had lost her “freedom”, began to stomp her feet like a child. She constantly twisted her body, almost causing Chu Yunshen to jump far away again.
Chu Yunshen was now standing on Cheng Xiaoxiao’s side, leaning sideways, wrapping his arms around Cheng Xiaoxiao and holding both her wrists in his palms. Every time Cheng Xiaoxiao moved, Chu Yunshen would get closer to her.
“Don’t move!” Chu Yunshen gritted his teeth as he bleated. The surprise and awkwardness disappeared completely.
Now, he had only one wish, and that was for the woman in his embrace to stop moving around and wake up quickly. He only wanted to know what exactly had happened.
However, Cheng Xiaoxiao did not want Chu Yunshen to get what he wanted. She realized that although he was pressing her arms, her head and upper body could lean closer to his chest.
Thus, Cheng Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to lean her head and body against him.
“If you don’t hug me, I will hug you.”
Cheng Xiaoxiao’s voice sounded very pleasant, with a little pride after her scheme had succeeded.
“Hey…”
Chu Yunshen was about to speak up to stop her but was interrupted by the voice from outside the door.
“Master, it’s almost time. Do you want to set out now?”
Mu Bai waited in the courtyard for a while and finally heard a voice coming from the courtyard next door. Only then did he rush over to report to Chu Yunshen.
“No need, she is already back.”
Chu Yunshen released a hand to cover Cheng Xiaoxiao’s mouth and grabbed her wrist with the other hand. He also feigned a calm and indifferent voice to respond to Mu Bai who was outside the door. In order to appear natural, Chu Yunshen deepened his voice deliberately.
She was back?
If so, why did Master sound a little upset?
Mu Bai asked worriedly, “Do you need my help to check on the cat?”
“No. B-Back off now!” Chu Yunshen trembled for a moment before he finished speaking. He even dragged his words a little, making him sound a little strange.
“Master, are you alright? Do you need me to come in and take a look?”
Mu Bai could sense that something was wrong based on Chu Yunshen’s voice, but he did not know what exactly had happened to Chu Yunshen that he would make a sound similar to the sound he whimpered when he was injured and having medicine applied to his wound.
“Back off.”
This time, Chu Yunshen sounded normal again, but only he knew how much effort he had spent to maintain this peace.
“Okay. Please rest early too. I will leave first.”
Mu Bai knew Chu Yunshen’s character. Chu Yunshen would not say a word about things he did not want them to know, so Mu Bai did not ask anymore. In fact, he had inadvertently heard the laughter of the woman, but he deduced it as his illusion because he was too exhausted after studying medicine and was not in the right mind.
Mu Bai’s footsteps quickly went farther away and eventually disappeared.
Feeling Mu Bai’s aura leave, Chu Yunshen looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao in his arms and slowly let go of his hand that was covering Cheng Xiaoxiao’s mouth. Only after he let go of his palm and automatically took a few steps back did he recover his usual demeanor.
There was still a warm touch in Chu Yunshen’s palm. He turned his palm over and raised it to his eyes to carefully see it.
There was a thin layer of callus on the fair palm. The palm that was supposed to be dry was now drenched with a small amount of liquid. Chu Yunshen could even see a trace of transparent and sticky stuff.
It was her saliva.
This also explained why Chu Yunshen got goosebumps and his voice was unsteady just now.
Just as Mu Bai came to report, Chu Yunshen was worried that Mu Bai would find out about Cheng Xiaoxiao’s existence, so he instinctively covered Cheng Xiaoxiao’s mouth out of desperation.
At first, Cheng Xiaoxiao was very happy, because Chu Yunshen had to hug her by doing so. Chu Yunshen was no longer holding Cheng Xiaoxiao lightly, but hugging the petite Cheng Xiaoxiao tightly in his embrace.
Unfortunately, Chu Yunshen was completely indifferent despite the fact that such a beautiful figure was in his embrace.
“You are so cold-blooded…”
Cheng Xiaoxiao glanced at Chu Yunshen who was talking to Mu Bai through the door. Although Cheng Xiaoxiao could not comprehend what Chu Yunshen was doing now, she knew that Chu Yunshen was not paying attention to her.
“Chu Yunshen can only belong to me!”
The overbearing Cheng Xiaoxiao could not miss this good opportunity. She secretly stuck out her tongue toward Chu Yunshen’s palm and gently licked the warm palm tentatively.
Chu Yunshen was rubbing Cheng Xiaoxiao’s lips with the callus on his palm, and he was a little distracted. Cheng Xiaoxiao’s licking made Chu Yunshen feel a dense sense of numbness coming from his entire palm. The numbness felt similar to when he had been poisoned with a weapon in the past, and it was paralyzing his entire body.
Did she forget that she was not a cat now?
Chu Yunshen had no choice but to send Mu Bai away, but the initiator, Cheng Xiaoxiao, was still lazily leaning on him. She did not conceal the cunning in her eyes, and Chu Yunshen discovered it easily.
There was no taste. Chu Yunshen was no longer fragrant.
Cheng Xiaoxiao smacked her lips and stuck out her tongue to lick her lips again as if she was reminiscing the taste just now.
Chu Yunshen’s eyes darkened, and he finally turned his head away, no longer observing Cheng Xiaoxiao.
“Who exactly are you?”
Chu Yunshen muttered under his breath.
He knew that the person in front of him would not answer him, nor could she, but he could not help but sigh.
“Are you really just a demonic cat?”
However, Cheng Xiaoxiao was not a person who loved to play according to the rules, especially after she heard Chu Yunshen say the words “demonic cat”. The words tugged at her heartstrings.
“Bullshit! I am not!”
Cheng Xiaoxiao swung her arms around, trying to knock over the person who was insulting her.
“I’m not a demonic cat! I’m beautiful as a flower. I’m not a demonic cat! Damn it!” Due to her fuzzy mind, she revealed her true nature even more, and at the same time, she was a little slurred.
Fortunately, her slurry caused Chu Yunshen to be unable to listen to her clearly. He only heard the latter part of her remarks but directly ignored the abusive part.
Since Cheng Xiaoxiao finally responded to him, he was intrigued. He even leaned a little closer in order to hear her clearly.
Chu Yunshen gently opened his thin lips and enticed Cheng Xiaoxiao, “Who are you then?”
“I am…” Cheng Xiaoxiao wanted to reply but she suddenly stopped under Chu Yunshen’s probing gaze.
“I…”
Cheng Xiaoxiao wanted to tell the truth, but she didn’t know why she couldn’t say it. It was as if there was a voice in her brain that stopped her from talking.
“I am Cheng Xiaoxiao!” Cheng Xiaoxiao finally managed to squeeze out an answer with great difficulty.
Although she seemed a little slow on the draw, she sounded crisp and loud. Chu Yunshen saw her natural and matter-of-fact appearance clearly. He was anticipating her answer at first, but after watching Cheng Xiaoxiao blurt out her name in difficulty, he smiled helplessly and shook his head.
As expected, she was still the mischievous and witty little fellow.
Although he couldn’t find out her true identity, it was good to know a little bit of information.
“Is your name Cheng Xiaoxiao?”
Chu Yunshen repeated Cheng Xiaoxiao’s name in his mind several times before he asked indifferently.
“Yes! But you have to call me Xiaoxiao!” Cheng Xiaoxiao ordered Chu Yunshen confidently. In order to prevent Chu Yunshen from disobeying her, she even reached out her hand and patted Chu Yunshen’s arm several times.
This was also what she liked to do when she was the Persian cat. Chu Yunshen looked down at Cheng Xiaoxiao’s slender fingers on his nightclothes, and it finally dawned upon him.
However, her hands were really small, like a child who had not grown up. Chu Yunshen wanted to reach out and touch her hand with his. He felt that he could directly wrap Cheng Xiaoxiao’s hand in his palm.
