Chapter 124 Jinjiang Literature City First Release

The little kitten sitting on the bed felt like his brain was filled with glue, dazed and not hearing the footsteps or the door opening.

He clung to Xie Chen’s waist, his eyes misty from being kissed.

“Sir.”

His lips slightly parted, Bai Li still occasionally rubbing against his sir’s lips.

“I like you, sir.”

His voice was probably muffled from being kissed too long, so it sounded slurred, making anyone who heard it feel a tickling warmth in their heart.

Xie Chen absolutely adored how he looked right now.

“Good boy, I like you too.”

No, that wasn’t right.

He no longer just liked this little kitten, he loved him very, very much.

Their sticky kiss continued until—

A shocked voice suddenly sounded at the door.

“What are you two doing?!”

Bai Li: “……”

Bai Li froze, pulled away from Xie Chen’s lips, and turned to look at the door.

Bai Rong stood there in blue striped pajamas, her hair slightly damp, loosely tied up, her bare face still stunningly beautiful.

The siblings’ eyes met, and the air seemed to quiet down.

“Se-second sister.”

Bai Li nervously grabbed Xie Chen’s clothes and called out guiltily.

He hadn’t yet told second sister about his relationship with sir.

Now, they were caught red-handed by second sister.

Bai Rong’s eyes scanned her brother’s flushed face, then fixed coldly on Xie Chen beside him.

Her expression was very cold.Xie Chen, who was locking eyes with her, even had a gut feeling: if Bai Rong had a gun in her hand, it was probably already pressed against his temple.

“Speak. What’s going on between you two?”

Bai Rong wore double flip-flops but her aura as she walked over was like a queen in high heels.

She pulled out a chair and sat down in front of them. Her nightdress was neither long nor short, just enough to reveal a slender, fair section of her calf.

Bai Li looked at second sister nervously and awkwardly used a new idiom he had learned online to ask, “Second sister, are you going to break up the couple?”

Bai Rong squinted her eyes: “What do you think?”

Li Li had been down the mountain for half a year, and had just turned adult a little over a month ago. In such a short time, he had already outed himself.

Moreover, this person wasn’t an ordinary one.

Girls’ feelings are usually delicate, and Bai Rong was no exception—she was also sensitive and delicate.

She didn’t want her beloved little brother to get hurt in the slightest.

“Second sister, hello, my name is Xie Chen. I’ve been engaged to Li Li since we were kids.”

“Later, I ran into some trouble and forgot about the engagement. After Li Li came down the mountain and found me, I remembered.”

Xie Chen calmly brought up the engagement first, then showed his loyalty: “I’m with Li Li now, but not because we had an arranged engagement early on; it’s because we love each other.”

Bai Rong snorted.

“Love each other.”

She looked like she had heard something very funny, a smile full on her face but not reaching her eyes.

“My brother just turned eighteen, and he had never left the mountain before. He’s been raised to be innocent.”

“Xie Chen, he’s just a little cub to me,” Bai Rong said, then suddenly switched direction to pour cold water on him: “Also, how much of the love your little cub has for you is conscious and active, and how much is just being led on?”

“I heard from big brother that you took Li Li back from the start.”

“Let me guess, after you took him back, you treated him especially well?”

“Xie Chen, does Li Li love you because he really likes you, or just because he loves the idea of loving you?”

Bai Rong’s words were sharp and hit the mark.

Xie Chen himself had pondered those questions. He wondered…

Is Li Li with him out of dependency or out of love?

“Second sister.”

Xie Chen steadied himself and refused to think further. He answered Bai Rong’s questions: “I’m confident in our relationship.”

“If Li Li says he loves me and wants to be with me, then I won’t let go.”

“Even if one day in the future Li Li gets tired of me, I will respect his choice.”“No way!” Bai Li heard this and was so anxious he couldn’t stand it: “Sir, I will never hate you, not now, and even less in the future!”

In this world, besides family, the person he loved the most, most, most was Sir.

The mutual confessions between the two almost made Second Sister Bai’s blood pressure spike.

“Stop.”

Bai Rong stood up and pulled her little brother over: “Baby, go to Second Sister.”

Bai Li didn’t want to go.

He originally wanted to play with Second Sister, but after being caught kissing Sir, it was obvious Second Sister’s expression wasn’t good.

He was scared.

Bai Rong held her brother’s wrist and led him out in a few steps.

Xie Chen wanted to stop them, but Bai Li didn’t say a word, so he couldn’t stop them either.

“Sir, you stay here and sleep.”

Bai Li lowered his head, like a frost-bitten little cabbage, limp and not letting Sir follow.

He was a mature cat now, and wanted to bravely handle things with Sir by himself.

Not long after,

The siblings entered the next room.

As soon as Bai Li went in, he instantly transformed back into a cat and opened his paws to be held by Second Sister.

He knew that Second Sister loved holding him the most! This scheming cat wanted to soften her heart first.

Bai Rong looked at the little cat still wrapped in bandages, and sure enough, the coldness on her face melted quite a bit.

“Baby.”

Bai Rong held the snowy white kitten in her arms, lowered her head, and asked him: “I’m not trying to oppose your romance, but promise me, have some boundaries, okay?”

“No matter when, always leave yourself some way out.”

Bai Li looked at her blankly, not understanding her meaning: “Leave a way out?”

“Yes.”

Bai Rong sat on the bed, placed the kitten on her lap, gently stroked him while talking: “Human love mostly has an expiration date.”

“Maybe he really loves you now, loves you so much that he’s willing to do anything for you, but as time passes, love also fades.”

Bai Li shook his head.

“No, it won’t.”He retorted, “I will always love Sir, and Sir will always love me.”

Bai Rong chuckled.

She poked the little cat’s face: “Li Li, look here.”

Bai Li obediently raised his head.

Under his gaze, Bai Rong unbuttoned her nightgown, stopping two fingers below her collarbone.

The Bai family’s skin was very fair, except Bai Lao Da who wasn’t as pale; the rest of the cats were very white.

At this moment, on Bai Rong’s originally fair, jade-like skin, there was a hideous and terrifying scar running from her collarbone downwards…

It was shocking to Bai Li.

“Second Sister.”

He reached out his small paw, wanting to touch that terrible scar, but was afraid of hurting her.

Seeing this, Bai Rong smiled and took his small paw to touch her own wound.

“Is this scar very scary?”

Bai Li nodded, his beautiful amber eyes full of tears: “It hurts.”

When she was injured, Second Sister must have been in a lot of pain.

Bai Rong wiped his tears and lowered her head to kiss his head.

“It doesn’t hurt now.”

She smiled and said, “When I got hurt, I didn’t even feel the wound hurting. At that time, it was the pain in my heart that was unbearable.”

“Li Li, this wound that nearly took my life, do you know? It was left by my former lover.”

“I’m four years older than him. When he was eighteen and got into the police academy, we met. At that time, I was already on a mission.”

“At first, I didn’t fancy such a young boy, but he looked so determined.”

“He tried every way to pursue me. We went through life and death together. In the hail of bullets, I accepted him.”

“We loved each other for six years. I was his first love, the one he would protect with his life.”

“But in the end, he changed. For no reason, he just didn’t love me as much anymore.”

“We were captured overseas by someone — my mortal enemy. He said only one of us could live. At that moment, I didn’t want to fight him, but to be safe, he picked up a knife the other threw and stabbed me.”

When Bai Rong told this story, no sadness showed on her face; there was even a smile at the corner of her mouth.

Bai Li stretched out his small paw, buried his head in her neck, and hugged her tightly.

“Second Sister.”

The kitten’s voice was no longer clear, hoarse as he comforted her: “I’ll get revenge for you. I won’t let anyone bully you.”Burning through the demon pill, he would kill that person no matter what!!!

Bai Rong rubbed the soft fur on his back: “Be good, no need for revenge, he’s already dead.”

Since then, Bai Rong no longer believed in so-called everlasting love.

The boy she loved, at eighteen, risked his life to shield her from bullets, braving fire and water for her, fearless.

But that same boy later tried to take her life with a knife.

Bai Rong never told anyone about the matters of the heart, not even Lao Da.

But seeing her precious little one have a human lover, she couldn’t help but worry.

She reopened her old wound, showing her bleeding past to her precious one.

She hoped her treasure would keep some retreat, not be too foolish, not be like her…

“Second Sister.”

The little kitten, tearful and choked, meowed: “I remember everything you said.”

He wasn’t stupid; he knew what Second Sister meant.

Though he felt in his heart that Sir loved him very much and would love him forever.

But since Second Sister didn’t believe in human promises of permanence, he obediently stopped arguing with her.

Bai Rong sighed softly.

She could tell her beloved little brother wanted to comfort her. Probably in his heart, he still trusted that Xie Chen.

Forget it.

She gently wiped the little cat’s tears dropping one after another and resignedly said, “Date however you want. Whether you listen to me or not doesn’t matter.”

If that Xie Chen really dared to betray Li Li, or hurt her Li Li.

At worst, she wouldn’t stay in this world anymore; she’d kill Xie Chen with one shot and take him back to Monster Mountain.

One person and one cat stayed in the room for a long time.

Long enough that Xie Chen next door, still not asleep, frowned and tried several times to get the cat.

An hour later.

Xie Chen’s door was finally knocked. He stepped forward and opened the door.

“Second Sister?”

Xie Chen glanced at her empty arms: “Where’s Li Li?”

“Li Li is asleep.”Bai Rong’s pajamas were pulled up, she leaned against the door, glanced at Xie Chen, and informed him: “Don’t wait tonight, Li Li is sleeping with me.”

Xie Chen: “...”

What could Xie Chen say?

This Second Sister was different from Bai Xiao Liu. This one was a woman who had just taken down several fugitives.

“I understand.”

Xie Chen said, “Li Li tends to kick off the covers at night, please keep an extra eye on him.”

“Don’t worry, he’s my brother, it’s no trouble at all.”
