Li Yuan looked at the flustered young lady. It was indeed as Kun Lun had said. Girls did not like to be called plump. He chuckled. “I’m saying that you look plump, which means you’re becoming prettier.”
The day he first met the little lady was the day she got kicked out by the Su family. She looked heartbreakingly pale and skinny then.
Fortunately, after these few months, the young lady grew to be much more bubblier and cuter than before. Her face was visibly chubbier and pretty, and that made anyone who looked at her happy
Shen Xi was not humble at all and felt smug upon hearing the compliment. She raised her chin proudly. “I’m born beautiful.”
Li Yuan let out a low chuckle. He was smiling happily when two fluffy orange ears appeared on Shen Xi’s head.
The cute lady was born with bright eyes and white teeth. She was always cute, but with the tiny fluffy ears wiggling, it was so adorable that it could melt one’s heart.
He laughed. “Where are you from, little fairy?”
Shen Xi frowned in confusion. As she looked at the man, his slender fingers were placed on both sides of his head.
To make his action more understandable, Li Yuan bent his index and middle fingers twice to mimic cute rabbit ears.
Shen Xi was stunned for a second. Staring at the man whose gestures did not match his usual mature and elegant self, she felt her heart beating extremely fast.
The man was born magnificent. The gesture he made however had him looking less elegant but more amiable.
Shen Xi pointed her finger at Li Yuan and pretended to question him fiercely, “Speak yourself! What sort of demonic beast are you! Why are you possessing my brother’s body? Watch how I’ll treat you if you still refuse to leave his body!”
“What do you think?” Li Yuan beamed.
Shen Xi humphed. “I knew it! My brother won’t do something as childish as this.”
A joyful laughter burst out of Li Yuan. He looked at her. “Get Toffeecito down quickly. Be careful not to get scratched”
It was none other than Toffeecito who was on the back of the young lady’s head. The two fluffy ears on Shen Xi’s head were also Toffeecito’s.
Toffeecito heard someone calling its name and it grabbed Shen Xi’s long hair with its claws. A small round fluffy head was revealed and it meowed in reply.
“Oh!” Shen Xi responded obediently. She caught Toffeecito while muttering seriously, “Brother, you should laugh and do more childish stuff in the future. I won’t make fun of you.”
Li Yuan remained silent. His deep and narrow eyes fixed a quiet and gentle gaze on Shen Xi who was hugging Toffeecito in her arms.
Shen Xi lightly knocked Toffeecito’s small head and reprimanded it. “Your claws are not even healed completely, yet you still dare to crawl around. How naughty can you be!”
She had placed Toffeecito in the hood of her down jacket when she arrived. Little did she know that the little fellow would crawl to her head from there. The little troublesome fellow needs a scolding.
Li Yuan looked at the little thing in her arms. He had not seen Toffeecito for only ten days but it had grown quite a bit. Its round body was like a ball of thread. Watching the two cuties made his heart melt.
Shen Xi told Li Yuan about what she had gone through lately. She happily spoke about “The Smiling Nation” which broke through 18% viewership ratings and the successful collaboration with the Situ family. Even the smallest details were brought up.
Li Yuan enjoyed listening to Shen Xi talk. She chattered like a sparrow. He would never get tired of it.
