66: Chapter 65: Advice to Run Away Directly 66: Chapter 65: Advice to Run Away Directly Lu Zixun, somewhat embarrassed, buried his head in his paws.
Thankfully, he hadn’t shared his deduction with anyone just now, otherwise, wouldn’t he have made a complete fool of himself?
Following Yue Sichen to the photoshoot location, Lu Zixun felt utterly despondent.
For each outfit, he had to strike various poses for over a dozen photos.
And there were at least twenty outfits here.
After being fussed over by the costume designer and the stylist, as the sun set in the west, they finally finished shooting all the photos.
Exhausted in body and mind, Lu Zixun lay next to Yue Sichen, unable to move a muscle.
He had endured pressures in this world that a cat simply shouldn’t have to bear.
Seeing Lu Zixun looking half-dead, Yue Sichen’s lips curved into a slight smile as he reached out to rub Lu Zixun: “Da Ju, what’s wrong?”
Lu Zixun, listless, let out a sound and his eyelids started to fight each other, truly exhausted.
“Ding—Joy Value from Yue Sichen +500 detected.”
Watching Lu Zixun’s little head occasionally droop and then lift, Yue Sichen found Lu Zixun quite cute.
He reached out to draw the dozing Lu Zixun into his arms and said softly with a smile, “Go to sleep, go to sleep, there’s nothing left for you to do tonight.”
Hearing Yue Sichen’s gentle voice was like a soft breeze and drizzling rain, and Lu Zixun closed his eyes.
It was his first time feeling how exhausting it was to be a cat.
the incident in zone Q…
to proceed with reckless determination…”
In the hazy sea of sleep,
Lu Zixun heard a familiar voice, and the words “Queen.”
Startled awake, Lu Zixun immediately opened his eyes.
It was a pink room filled with girlishness, a dim yellow light glowing on the nightstand, illuminating the room.
He could smell a faint fragrance at the tip of his nose, Yue Sichen’s scent.
This must be Yue Sichen’s room.
Getting up from the bed, the blanket slid off his body, Lu Zixun shook his fur and looked around.
Yue Sichen was nowhere to be seen.
All around was silent, as if the voice he’d just heard was merely an illusion of Lu Zixun’s.
Jumping down to the floor, Lu Zixun walked out of Yue Sichen’s bedroom.
The hallway was pitch black, but light could be seen through the crack of the study’s door.
He looked up and called out, triggering the voice-activated hallway lights to turn on, the bright light making Lu Zixun squint his eyes involuntarily.
He walked toward the study, nudged the door open with his head, and slipped through the gap.
He immediately saw Yue Sichen, dressed in pajamas, working at the computer.
After looking around and seeing no one else, Lu Zixun pondered for a moment before heading over to Yue Sichen.
Yue Sichen, feeling a tickle by his leg and looking down to find Lu Zixun, smiled and spoke.
Calling out twice, Lu Zixun took a couple of steps with his hind legs, jumped onto the desk, and tilted his head to glance at the computer screen.
Before he could see what was on the screen clearly, Lu Zixun was scooped up into Yue Sichen’s arms: “You sure can sleep, slept right through till now.”
“Let’s go, I’ll get you something to eat.
Can’t neglect my little employee now, can I?”
As Yue Sichen stood up, Lu Zixun inexplicably felt that Yue Sichen seemed to be hiding something.
Yet he didn’t know what she was concealing.
Was what he’d just heard merely a confused auditory hallucination from sleep?
Lu Zixun was filled with doubt.
Don’t be fooled by appearances, Yue Sichen really didn’t look like someone who could cook, and his cooking skills were quite impressive.
He wolfed down his dinner…
No, at this time of night, it should be considered a midnight snack.
While Lu Zixun was eating, Yue Sichen’s gaze remained fixed on him.
He would occasionally let out a silent sigh, radiating an air of melancholy.
Licking around his mouth, Lu Zixun felt somewhat unsatisfied.
Turning to look at the disconsolate Yue Sichen, Lu Zixun quietly approached him.
He rubbed his head against Yue Sichen’s arm and looked up with a “meow.”
Yue Sichen came back to reality, reached out to stroke Lu Zixun’s head, and cracked a slight smile, “Let’s go, time for bed.”
Lu Zixun looked at Yue Sichen in surprise; he had just woken up.
However, seeing Yue Sichen’s tired appearance and wanting to figure out if Yue Sichen was indeed the “Queen.”
Lu Zixun thought for a moment and decided to join Yue Sichen in going to sleep.
Following Yue Sichen upstairs to the bedroom,
Lu Zixun ended up being used as a pillow by Yue Sichen, lying on the bed.
Not long after, the sound of Yue Sichen’s steady and prolonged breathing reached Lu Zixun’s ears; he seemed to be asleep.
Carefully activating Heavenly Eye, Lu Zixun looked at Yue Sichen.
“Ding—Scan result inconclusive, the scanned creature’s strength exceeds the Host.
It is recommended to flee immediately to avoid fatal danger.”
Seeing the result of the Heavenly Eye scan, Lu Zixun felt a chill in his heart.
Could Yue Sichen really be a Queen-level creature?!
If that were the case, it would be quite problematic.
To think that he was actually lying next to a Queen-level creature, and even sleeping together with her!
If Yuan Sichen woke up one day in a foul mood, then Lu Zixun’s life would be over.
Just as Lu Zixun was about to flee, he suddenly remembered something; when he used Heavenly Eye to scan Xiong Kang, the result was the same.
Maybe Yue Sichen’s power was just hidden and not exactly that of a Queen-level creature.
After comforting himself, Lu Zixun decided against running away.
After all, he had infiltrated the Yuesha Group from STO, and a single scan from Heavenly Eye wasn’t enough; he had to find concrete evidence.
He extended a paw and pushed against Yue Sichen’s smooth arm, but it didn’t budge.
Lu Zixun mentally cursed his luck.
He had planned to sneak out to gather some information, but he hadn’t expected this woman to hold him so tightly even in sleep.
While Lu Zixun considered how to escape, a wave of sleepiness hit him, and before he knew it, he fell asleep in Yue Sichen’s arms.
“Ding—Detected a Killing Intent Value increase of +500 from Ye Xun.”
The alert did not wake Lu Zixun; instead, it made him sleep even more soundly.
Above Chunhua City, the sun rose.
The warm sunlight filtered through the gauzy curtains, shining upon Lu Zixun’s face.
Lu Zixun lifted a paw and swatted at his face, then rolled over on the bed and kept sleeping.
“Ding—Detected a Love Value increase of +500 from Yue Sichen.”
Yue Sichen, who had already awakened, saw this scene and wiped away some breadcrumbs from the corner of his mouth.
He took a cat toy from the side and placed it by Lu Zixun’s nose.
Feeling something tickling his nose, Lu Zixun slapped at the cat toy with his paw, and with an annoyed expression, he opened his eyes.
Seeing Lu Zixun wake up, Yue Sichen’s lips curved upward as he retracted the cat toy, letting out a light chuckle, “It’s time for us to go to the press conference.”
