Bai Xiaohu started from the first time they met. She said that from the first look, she suspected Lu Ye was the cat she was seeking. However, this fact was so unbelievable that most humans won’t accept it. So she kept quiet, followed him back to the base, got close and built relationships with him, hoping to gain his trust first.
In short, in Bai Xiaohu’s narration, she was simply an embodiment of calmness, wisdom, and intelligence; an individual with decisive decision-making skills. Starting from finding the target, observing the target, and approaching the target, each act was particularly planned.
Finally, she ends with: “I’m really not lying to you. You see how good our relationship is, why would I lie to you? You really were a cat demon in the past. If you don’t believe it, practice cultivation with me for a while, and you will feel it yourself.”
She tried her best to persuade him.
Lu Ye’s expression changed from surprise and shock to doubt and calmness, and there was an indescribable complexity in his eyes when he looked at Bai Xiaohu.
Bai Xiaohu’s heart beat like a drum when she saw his eyes: “You are not thinking I’m talking nonsense again, do you? I’m for real, I know I am, ahem, maybe not as reliable as I describe myself, but I won’t recognize the wrong person, otherwise why would I go back to Jiangcheng Base with you, right?”
Lu Ye murmured: “Yes, why did you?”
Why did she follow him to the base, why did she trust him more than others, and why did she suddenly run out of the base to find him, it seems like there is a reasonable answer.
Just like she said, getting close, building relationships, building feelings and trust, all for him to believe her words today.
She was right and should do all this because she had said this before, but he didn’t take it to heart. At that time, all he thought was that she had too many strange ideas, maybe the environment she grew up in was too mysterious, how could there be a person in the world who was actually a cat?
And today, when he heard her talk about it again, he began to believe that she was not talking nonsense. She suddenly appeared, acting as if she had never lived in this society before, and even didn’t know the language at first. It seemed that she had a space in her body, and there were many things in the space that were far beyond the level of this world.
All signs indicate that she lives in a completely different environment as if she came from another world, and the reason why she left that environment and came here was to find the cat demon she mentioned.
Lu Ye finally figured out the cause and effect, but he didn’t feel relieved. Instead, it felt more like falling into a hole that suddenly appeared.
Looking at her clean and clear eyes, Lu Ye smiled bitterly in his heart.
Seeing that he didn’t speak, sitting at the table, lowering his eyes, and not knowing where his eyes fell, the silence made Bai Xiaohu uneasy, so she asked in a low voice: “Lu Ye?”
Why does he look so shocked? Is it this difficult to accept he was a cat demon in the past?
Lu Ye closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was fine, but he just said coldly: “So you did mistake Dapan for me.”
Bai Xiaohu: “……” Why hasn’t this matter been a thing of the past yet?
She touched her nose: “I thought you could turn into a cat. No one told me you had a cat, it suddenly appeared, and when I asked if you were Lu Ye, it nodded and wagged its tail, how could I not misunderstand?”
She puts all the responsibility on the cat with no hesitation. In fact, it never nodded or wagged its tail. The cat just raised its paw and blinked its eyes.
Lu Ye said again: “You are still lying.”
Bai Xiaohu was shocked: “How come you know? Well, it didn’t nod or wag its tail, but it did raise its paw and blinked its eyes to respond to me.” She said it with confidence, it was indeed the cat that lied to her.
Lu Ye glanced at her: “That’s not what I’m talking about. You didn’t recognize me as the cat at first, but thought it was Zhuang Qingzai, right?”
Wow, this Zhuang Qingzai from eight hundred years ago was also dug out. Bai Xiaohu felt a little guilty: “This…”
“You came back to the base with me not for me, but to get close to Zhuang Qingzai. You touched his buttocks to verify whether he was the one you were looking for, right? You set your sights on me after finding out he was not the one.”
Lu Ye said, raising his eyes and looking straight at her: “I am not your first choice.”
This analysis…is accurate enough, as if he ran into Bai Xiaohu’s mind and dug out her thoughts and the psychological journey she had and read them thoroughly.
However, Bai Xiaohu felt that his focus was on the latter sentence?
He looked a little unhappy.
Bai Xiaohu admitted her mistake: “I’m sorry, I didn’t recognize you the first time, but that’s because Zhuang Qingzai and Dapan were stained with your aura!”
Her eyes were straightforward. She grabbed his hand on the table and shook it, begging for mercy: “It’s my fault. I apologize to you. Don’t be angry about this!”
Lu Ye looked at the pale and slender hand. It felt soft when she pulled him, which made his heart soft as well. The heart that had fallen to the bottom couldn’t help but sway again.
He sighed: “I’m not angry.”
Bai Xiaohu’s face lit up immediately: “Then you believe what I said?”
Lu Ye: “Are you sure I’m really the one you’re looking for?”
“I’m sure, I’m sure you have a familiar aura on you. Although sometimes it’s there and sometimes not, I haven’t sensed it in others so far. Otherwise, let me touch your butt very quickly, I can be more sure.”
Lu Ye just looked at her silently.
Bai Xiaohu retracted her claws and laughed: “I’m kidding. I know you don’t want to. Then you can practice the cultivation of the spirit with me.”
Lu Ye looked at her for a long time and had many questions to ask, but in the end, he didn’t and nodded.
Bai Xiaohu cheered, she finally succeeded? It wasn’t easy!
She immediately started telling Lu Ye about how to cultivate.
As a human-shaped spirit who has gone through many lives and forgotten everything in the past, it is certainly not easy to start practicing again. However, Bai Xiaohu is confident that Lu Ye can embark on this path again. If it doesn’t work, she can use her spirit core to help him.
So she was completely confident and smiled like a flower. She talked about the tricks of spirit breathing practice and taught him to identify some meridians in the body.
Bai Xiaohu stayed in Lu Ye’s room until very late and skipped joyfully back to rest. Lu Ye saw her off after following a few steps, and then stood alone in the night silently, as if his figure melted into the darkness. Baozi happened to pass by and said with a smile: “Boss, will we celebrate your wedding soon after we go back?”
Baozi is someone who can’t sit still. Not long after returning to the base, he departed again to help with farming.
He thought that the boss would at most scold him for his teasing. Everyone can see that their relationship has been getting better recently, and their feelings are growing day by day. It seems that the wedding is coming soon!
However, Lu Ye’s expression and eyes were icy, and his voice was also majestic and cold: “Don’t say such things again.”
Baozi was stunned.
At this moment, the pressure of a high-level esper weighed down, and Baozi almost couldn’t stand steadily, and his face turned pale.
Lu Ye seemed to realize that he lost control, and immediately restrained himself. Baozi felt lighter. If it weren’t for the buzzing in his head, the terrible pressure that almost pressed him down and made him vomit blood just now seemed to be just his illusion.
Lu Ye was silent for a while, then patted his shoulder and said, “Sorry, go back and rest.”
He turned around and went back, his figure looked icy and he seemed very lonely.
