Chapter 147 — First Release on Jinjiang Literature City

After a while,

Tan Yi came into the ward carrying food.

“Second Sister, Lili, I brought you some delicious food.”

Bai Li’s chubby little body pressed against Bai Rong’s chest. Seeing him approach, he spread out his paws: “Hold me.”

Tan Yi quickly placed the food on the table beside Bai Rong, then picked up the soft, fluffy kitten: “Come, Third Brother will hold you.”

Bai Rong and Bai Li barely ate the food.

Tan Yi wanted to eat but unfortunately, his manager was still making him lose weight.

“Second Sister, I asked the hospital. You can be discharged in a couple of days. Then I’ll take you home, and me, Xiao Si, and the others will take care of you.”

Bai Rong tugged at the corner of her mouth: “Xiao Si is so lazy. Now that Lili is sick, he’s already tired enough. I don’t need him to take care of me too.”

Bai Rong was strong-willed. She had always taken care of her younger brothers; having them take care of her made her feel like she was burdening them.

“He won’t be tired.”

Tan Yi insisted on taking Second Sister home: “Besides, he’s not the only one. Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu are there too.”

Bai Li sat on Third Brother’s arm and nodded: “Second Sister can live at my place. Xie Bo cooks really well!”

The two brothers begged together, and Bai Rong finally agreed to rest at Tan Yi’s place after being discharged in a few days.

Bai Rong’s injury was not yet healed.

When Bai Li had stayed long enough, he went out with Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law.

“Lili, is there anything you want to do next?” Tan Yi asked, looking down at the little kitten in his arms.

Without hesitation, Bai Li said, “I want to find Mister.”

Tan Yi: “...”

Tan Yi choked up.

That, he really couldn’t arrange.

“Well then, how about you change your wish? Like picking a star?”

Bai Li froze: “Can Third Brother pick a star for me?”

Tan Yi pointed at Gong Zhe, proudly saying, “Let him do it. He said himself, whether I want stars or the moon, he’ll pick them.”

Gong Zhe heard this and seemed a bit helpless in his eyes, but mostly indulgent.

Bai Li glanced at Third Brother, then at Third Sister-in-law.“Meow.”

You two are showing off your love.

The pure white little kitten buried his head, refusing to watch Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law showing affection.

He still hadn’t found Mister yet; he also wanted to show off love with Mister.

To prevent the kitten from suddenly running off to find Xie Chen, Tan Yi kept a close eye on him, basically taking him everywhere, including to film a variety show.

“Lili, do you want to come on stage with me, or stay backstage with Gong Zhe and wait for me?”

Bai Li thought for a moment and actively let Gong Zhe hold him over.

But before the handoff was complete, Tan Yi felt it wasn’t a good idea.

If Gong Zhe didn’t take good care of Bai Li, it would be a problem.

“Forget it.”

Tan Yi looked down at the kitten: “I’ll hold you on stage anyway; it’s a talk show, so just sitting is fine.”

Bai Li had no objection.

Before long,

Tan Yi was on stage, with a little kitten’s head poking out from his arms.

“Lili, say hello to everyone.”

In front of the camera, Tan Yi seemed like a different person, smiling with charm and grace.

Bai Li waved his little paw: “Meow!”

Hello, everyone.

The host saw this snow-white kitten and smiled warmly: “I’m quite familiar with Lili. I guess some of the audience in front can recognize him, right?”

Bai Li was Tan Yi’s cat, but everyone also knew he was Xie Chen’s treasured cat, and he had a master named Bai Li.

In short, whoever was behind this cat was enviable.

The host cued the kitten several times.

Tan Yi smiled and cooperated with the answers.

During the later part of the show, the host suddenly asked with a smile: “Recently, some popular cat songs have been trending online. Cat songs sound very healing.”

“Tan Yi, can I ask, are those cat songs sung by Lili in your arms?”

Bai Li instinctively nodded: “Meow.”

I sing them.

Tan Yi didn’t hide it, openly admitting: “Yes, it’s Lili singing.”

“Then can we have Lili sing a cat song live? Our show has many viewers, and several hotlines are calling in with this request.”

Having been asked this way, and since Bai Li already loved singing cat songs, he didn’t refuse.Tan Yi saw that he was ready, then placed his own microphone in front of his little brother, letting him sing into it.

Bai Li was a cat who wasn’t stage-frightened; he earnestly sang the familiar cat songs again.

The host was momentarily stunned after listening.

“Lili’s cat songs really do make people’s moods inexplicably better just by hearing them.”

Tan Yi raised an eyebrow, a little proud.

During the whole show, Bai Li was cued to sing cat songs twice before it ended.

At this moment,

In the vast snowy wilderness, Xie Chen had just reunited with the Old Master Lang.

The Old Master was a wolf, unafraid of the cold. He had brought plenty of food, so even spending the winter here wouldn’t be a problem.

“Xie Chen.”

The Old Master hesitated as he looked at him: “I’ve been studying this formation these days.”

Xie Chen looked up and directly at him: “Then, what have you discovered about this formation?”

The Old Master’s expression was complicated: “I have made some discoveries, but I don’t know how to explain them to you.”

“Just say it straight.”

Under Xie Chen’s gaze, the Old Master sighed deeply.

“Alright, I’ll be straightforward.”

“You probably already know your own identity, but what I want to tell you is that your parents probably realized long ago that you’re not an ordinary child.”

“You were originally half-demon. If you had awakened in a mortal child’s body when you were still young, you wouldn’t have been able to survive.”

“To suppress your half-demon identity, your parents must have asked someone for help. That person found this place for them and set up the formation.”

“They established a link with you, then entered the formation themselves. As long as they remain here forever, you will be safe.”

The Old Master’s words pierced Xie Chen’s heart like thorns.

He actually already knew he wasn’t their biological child.

At first, his mother didn’t even want to raise him when he was still in swaddling clothes.

But in the end, she softened.

Xie Chen closed his eyes, and when he spoke again, his voice was hoarse.

“Thank you. I came this time to bring them back.”

The Old Master looked at him, still hesitant.

If Xie Chen’s parents came out, his half-demon body would fully awaken.

Would he still be the same as now? If he did something uncontrollable, wouldn’t he become the culprit?

The Old Master’s mind twisted and turned, unable to make a decision.Xie Chen seemed to see through his worries and calmly assured him, “I won’t do anything bad. There are still many people I want to cherish in this world.”

For example, his little cat was still waiting for him.

The Old Master no longer hesitated and reached out his hand to Xie Chen: “Give me three drops of your fingertip blood.”

Breaking the formation and bringing people out was not an easy task.

Fortunately, everyone has their specialty. Old Master Lang was an expert in this.

After another full seven days, the great formation on the snowy mountain was completely broken. A pair of men and women, whose appearances hadn’t changed from before, appeared before Xie Chen.

“Dad, Mom…”

Inside the snowy mountain was a family reunion.

Outside the snowy mountain, in the distant city A, cats and wolves were running wild.

“It’s been so many days!”

The angry little cat threw the pillow off the sofa and stood on it in a huff: “I want Master, I want to go find Master!”

The little wolf picked up the thrown pillow with his mouth and placed it back properly.

“Awwooo!”

No, have to wait a little longer.

Bai Li didn’t want to wait. He had already waited many days.

“Lang He.”

The cat jumped directly onto the little wolf, majestically clawing at his fur: “We’re going to find Master together.”

He couldn’t remember the address, but the little wolf could.

Lang He howled pitifully: “Your older brothers told me to watch you. They won’t let us go look for Big Boss Xie.”

Bai Li didn’t listen.

Seeing how stubborn he was, the little wolf had no choice but to carry him off to find someone.

The person they needed to find wasn’t Xie Chen, but Bai family’s older brothers.

This cat couldn’t be taken any further and had to be returned to the Bai family’s older brothers.

Several older brothers were also troubled.

Xie Chen had been gone many days; maybe there was no signal, as not a single message came back.

Because of this, they couldn’t calm their little brother at all.

In the end, it was Zhou Zhi, who hadn’t been seen for a long time, who stepped in and took Bai Li to prepare for the dance party.

“I have a nationwide tour event today.”

Zhou Zhi scratched the little cat’s belly: “Just right, there’s a dance party in the city, you can be my dance partner.”

The little cat whimpered, stretched out his paw, and hugged Zhou Zhi’s finger: “Master, I miss Master.”Zhou Zhi spoke gently: “Your Master will come back. Before he returns, do you want to learn a confession dance to perform for him?”

“Confession?”

“Yes.”

Zhou Zhi introduced it to him: “There is a very famous dance. The dancer who created it originally intended it to express a strong, unconditional love to their beloved. Later, when we like someone and want to confess, we dance this dance for them.”

This idea attracted Bai Li.

The noisy little cat finally decided to master the confession dance before Master came back.

Days passed by.

At Zhou Zhi’s studio, Bai Li came to practice dancing punctually every day.

He danced very well. After thinking about it, Zhou Zhi decided to include this dance as a performance in the tour.

On the day the dance party began, Bai Li opened his phone and sent Xie Chen a WeChat message.

[Master, I’m going on stage to dance.]

[Hurry back.]

[I miss you.]

The chat box already showed messages sent by Bai Li.

However, Xie Chen didn’t reply to any of them.

“Bai Li, it’s almost your turn. Go get ready.”

Someone called him from behind while he was messaging.

Bai Li hurriedly put his phone away and replied, “Coming!”

After everything was ready and the dance party was about to start, Bai Li still couldn’t help but keep refreshing his phone.

This time, he actually found a message from Xie Chen.

[Breaking news: Xie Chen and a young woman seen holding hands intimately, suspected to have broken up with Bai Li!]

Bai Li: “???“

He rubbed his eyes and looked carefully at the photos posted in the report.

The person in the black long coat was Master.

The young woman beside Master had her face blurred, but her long black hair, slim figure in a dress, and striking temperament were obvious.

Bai Li was furious.

He had been practicing hard here to confess to Master.

And Master was holding hands with someone else!

“Bai Li, Bai Li?”

The person urging him onstage came up and stared at him confusedly: “Hey, what’s wrong? Why are your eyes red?”
