Lose My Heart to the Lovely Kitten Princess - Chapter 93
Chapter 93 The divine beast
“Master, Prince Xuan is here…” Xiaowu wanted to explain more, but Chu Yunshen interrupted sternly.
“I can see that.” Chu Yunshen glanced at them and said, “I told you no guests today.”
Xiaowu immediately knelt and wanted to acknowledge his mistake.
“Brother Yunshen, I followed him in, so it’s not his fault,” interrupted Chu Hongyi anxiously.
Chu Yunshen couldn’t be bothered to even look at him. Instead, he glanced at Xiaowu. “25 paddles from the punishment officer!”
“Yes, master,” said Xiaowu readily before he quickly went to receive punishment.
Only Chu Hongyi and Chu Yunshen were left in the room.
Chu Hongyi came closer to Chu Yunshen with a mysterious look on his face. “Brother Yunshen, is the cat around?”
The moment Chu Hongyi asked about Cheng Xiaoxiao, Chu Yunshen felt angry. Sure enough, Chu Hongyi was up to no good and still coveted his cat.
“She’s not here, so you can go now.”
Chu Yunshen’s stiff words failed to deter Chu Hongyi. Instead, Chu Hongyi was instantly at ease.
He sat down in front of Chu Yunshen before he picked up the teapot in front of Chu Yunshen and drank from the spout as he gasped.
“That’s perfect. You can’t keep that cat around. You have to try and give her away.”
Chu Yunshen found it unbelievable. He generously gave Chu Hongyi some attention and gestured for him to go on.
After all, his fourteenth brother had his eyes on his cat for a long time, so it was unusual for him to have such a reaction today.
Chu Hongyi didn’t disappoint Chu Yunshen. He went off like a firecracker as he retold what happened when he fell into Hanze Lake the other day.
He said to Chu Yunshen secretively. “Brother Yunshen, trust me! That cat is abnormal and definitely some kind of cat demon! You have to get rid of her before she does you harm!”
“That’s nonsense!”
Chu Yunshen scoffed at Chu Hongyi. His little brother was childish to speak of supernatural things.
“Enough! I think your mind’s still a little confused after the fever and scare you had, so you imagined things.” Chu Yunshen instantly drove him away when he heard this. “Go home and stop thinking about it.”
Chu Hongyi wanted to continue persuading Chu Yunshen. However, he stopped when he saw the look on his brother’s face.
Chu Hongyi looked upset and a little defeated.
He was oblivious that the cat demon herself had heard everything he said loud and clear.
Cheng Xiaoxiao gnashed her teeth and wanted to lunge and claw Chu Hongyi. She wanted to show him what happened to those wandering spirits she had captured and show him what Granny Cat Demon was made of. Maybe that would change his mind about badmouthing her to Chu Yunshen.
What if she ended up scaring her potential love interest?
Also, Chu Yunshen was her caretaker now. How could she end up losing such a rich, handsome caretaker?
The more Cheng Xiaoxiao thought about it, the more she had to do something about Chu Hongyi.
Although she was adorable, she was still a weak kitten most of the time. How could she survive Chu Hongyi’s repeated slander?
Ever since she captured the provocative ghosts, there was enough spirit energy in the jade pendant. After struggling to make a decision, Cheng Xiaoxiao swiftly transformed into a girl.
As usual, she went to get herself some clothes first!
Cheng Xiaoxiao quickly got dressed in a maid’s uniform without hesitation.
Cheng Xiaoxiao immediately hunted Chu Hongyi down in the garden.
“It’s you! What do you want?” Chu Hongyi recalled who the beautiful girl before him was when Cheng Xiaoxiao found him.
“A cat demon!!!” shouted Chu Hongyi as he pointed at her.
“Shut up! You foolish human! I am an ancient divine beast. How can you insult me?” Cheng Xiaoxiao looked like a conman.
“A d-d-divine beast?” Chu Hongyi felt confused and was incapable of wrapping his mind around it. Instead, he stammered along with her.
“I’m an ancient divine beast and not a divine beast! Those things are quite different, okay?” Cheng Xiaoxiao was such a professional liar that her heart didn’t even skip a beat.
……
Practice made perfect. After Cheng Xiaoxiao made up some nonsense with a straight face, Chu Hongyi was so startled that he completely believed her.
After all, there was some truth in what she said, and half-truths were more believable.
Naturally, Cheng Xiaoxiao shamelessly thought that her good looks helped.
This was beside the point. In any case, Chu Hongyi’s attitude towards Cheng Xiaoxiao instantly changed when he learned that Chu Yunshen could change all misfortune to blessing because of her.
Also, Chu Hongyi had already heard about the incidents at Luohun Forest and Huangquan Forest.
Initially, Chu Hongyi thought Chu Yunshen was able to crack these cases because he had an astoundingly keen eye. It turned out that Cheng Xiaoxiao was behind it.
If he were capable of making the ancient divine beast happy, would he have great performance like Chu Yunshen?
But would his brother lose the protection of the ancient divine beast in the process?
Probably not, right? Chu Yunshen already had so many talented men working for him.
Cheng Xiaoxiao pulled Chu Hongyi back to reality from his thoughts.
Chu Hongyi felt as though she had just poured a bucket of cold water down his head and shattered his dreams completely.
He felt utterly cold.
He found it unfathomable that ghosts were out to get him!
That was exactly what Cheng Xiaoxiao told him.
It was the reason why he was chased by a rock that could fly in mid-air and fell into the lake inexplicably.
Just thinking about it sent a chill down his spine. The culprit was imperial consort Zhao no less!
How could the woman be so vicious?
After a brief discussion with Cheng Xiaoxiao, the two of them decided to come up with a plan to handle imperial consort Zhao.
After all, imperial consort Zhao was powerful and vicious.
If they didn’t handle the matter well, it would work against them.
After heading back to Chu Yunshen’s room, Cheng Xiaoxiao could sense a murderous aura in the air.
Chu Yunshen was asking Butler Liu about what she did today.
Cheng Xiaoxiao panicked and tried to run.
The man was very temperamental, so if Butler Liu said the wrong things…
Just thinking about it made her terrified! She should run to her girlfriend for cover.
Wan Xia! She was coming!
Cheng Xiaoxiao strolled into Wan Xia’s quarters domineeringly.
“Meow meow!”
Wan Xia, your adorable friend was here!
Cheng Xiaoxiao ran towards Wan Xia like a cannon but was stopped by Yue.
“Be careful there! What if you trip Miss Wan Xia with your barging?”
Nonsense! Wouldn’t she know better?
Cheng Xiaoxiao was instantly angry.
Wan Xia patted Yue gently and gestured for her to give way.
“It’s okay, Yue. I’m not that fragile. Although the cat is mischievous, His Highness likes it a lot, and so do I!?
She picked Cheng Xiaoxiao up and stroked her fur gently. “Did you sneak out again? I helped you to cover up. You must be hungry now. Let me make you some food.”
Yue added, “I think so too. You were so worried, but look at how heartless she is. She just comes back when it’s time to eat.”
“Enough, Yue. Go to the kitchen and start preparing. I’ll be there in a minute,” said Wan Xia before telling Yue to leave.
Cheng Xiaoxiao suppressed her urge to scratch Yue.
She was such a talkative maid.
Wan Xia was the best.
Wan Xia was such a thoughtful girl.
Since Wan Xia was a good cook, she finished preparing Cheng Xiaoxiao’s dinner in no time.
She even patiently deboned the fish before mixing the soup with some rice and feeding Cheng Xiaoxiao.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was so touched she almost cried.
Men were dumbasses, and sweet girls were the best.
After Cheng Xiaoxiao happily finished dinner, Wan Xia brought her back to Chu Yunshen.
Since Wan Xia helped to cover up her disappearance, Chu Yunshen didn’t detect anything amiss.
Cheng Xiaoxiao was so satisfied with dinner that she snuggled closer to Wan Xia.
Cheng Xiaoxiao snuggled closely to Wan Xia’s soft bosom as she carried her. she almost wanted to open her mouth and brag about what a wonderful girlfriend she had.
Chu Yunshen’s opinion of Wan Xia started to change.
After all, she managed to tame his arrogant cat in such a short time. It was quite an impressive feat.
He did not ask Wan Xia in detail. However, his face turned angry when Cheng Xiaoxiao was reluctant to leave Wan Xia’s arms.
The sky was pitch black and filled with stars.
Even though it was completely quiet, the stars looked lively.
Since Cheng Xiaoxiao was exhausted, she lay on Chu Yunshen’s shoulder and fell into a deep sleep while Chu Yunshen was incapable of resting.
He scrutinized the lion cat sternly while she slept soundly.
Chu Yunshen didn’t know why, but Chu Hongyi’s words kept echoing in his ears.
However, this talk of cat demons was sheer fairy tale!
After all his years of fighting wars, he hadn’t seen something as incredible as that.
A thought suddenly crossed Chu Yunshen’s mind. He flipped over and headed to the cabinet.
He kept his volume down lest he disturbed the cat as he rummaged.
It was here!
Chu Yunshen had a yellow talisman in his hand. He found it somewhere on his bookcase, and it looked old.
Although he seemed calm, he was holding it so tightly that he left a wrinkle on it.
Chu Yunshen stared at the sleeping lion cat. Just as he was about to stick the talisman on the lion cat’s furry head, a hesitant look rose on his typically expressionless face.
His hand hesitated as he held the talisman, and there was a little more expression on his face than usual.
If Xiaowu were present, he would have thought he had imagined things to see Chu Yunshen so hesitant.
Cheng Xiaoxiao suddenly gurgled.
Chu Yunshen swiftly pulled the talisman away and ducked to the side of the bed guiltily.
After things went quiet, Chu Yunshen walked over and stood next to Cheng Xiaoxiao.
Was she snoring? Did cats snore?
Chu Yunshen was puzzled. He stood at the bed at contemplated for a long time.
He didn’t even bat an eye when he fought at war. Why should he be afraid of an intelligent lion cat?
Since she was sleeping soundly, she probably wouldn’t know if Chu Yunshen stuck the talisman on her now.
After coming to a decision, he stepped forward and stuck the talisman on the cat’s head.
Was he done sticking it?
What time was it?
Chu Yunshen stared at Cheng Xiaoxiao and wasn’t sure if he was looking forward to this or not.
Why hadn’t anything happened yet?
Cheng Xiaoxiao started to gurgle even more loudly, and Chu Yunshen’s face turned dark.
In the end, he tore off the talisman and lifted the blanket to dive into bed without bothering to be gentle and hugged the cat while he slept.
Sure enough, a cat demon was pure fairy tale!
