"Kitten" and kitten

When they arrived at Shen Siyi's home, the first person Song Nianxing saw the instant the door opened was Shen Siyi's manager, Wen Xian.

With a cold expression, Wen Xian looked him up and down, then said with what seemed like a hint of regret, "You really had the nerve to come."

As he spoke, he turned to Shen Siyi and raised a hand to point at him resentfully, his face filled with loathing. "You really are... a beast. I don't even know what to say to you!"

Hearing this, Song Nianxing immediately felt that Wen Xian was expressing his displeasure at him coming to Shen Siyi's home, and hurriedly apologized:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wen Xian. I've caused trouble for Senior Shen. He was only being kind, so please don't blame him."

"Being kind?" Looking at the apologetic, innocent, fair-faced Song Nianxing, Wen Xian could barely contain himself.

"Wen Xian, do you need me to have someone pick you up?" Shen Siyi narrowed his eyes slightly, a fierce, warning glint already entering them.

Wen Xian immediately fell silent. "Fine, I'll leave. I'll leave, all right? Being with you is practically a heinous sin." As he spoke, he looked at Song Nianxing again. After hesitating for a long while, he let out a long sigh and walked past them.

Watching the villa door close, Song Nianxing felt even guiltier. "Mr. Wen Xian looked really angry. I didn't think this through and forgot that we're both public figures. If we were photographed, I'd definitely cause Senior Shen a lot of trouble again. I... I'd better go back."

Seeing his meek demeanor, Shen Siyi raised an eyebrow with interest and teased him. "Go back? You're not scared anymore? If you get frightened again later and call me, I won't answer."

Song Nianxing couldn't stop his body from trembling slightly as he met Shen Siyi's eyes. "I am..." He pressed his lips together after speaking, then thought for a moment before asking, "Would you really not answer my call?"

Shen Siyi immediately chuckled. "Really. So, do you want to go back?"

Song Nianxing immediately began wavering. "I..."

"All right, I was teasing you. You're already here, aren't you?" As he spoke, he led the way inside, saying as he walked, "Don't worry. The paparazzi wouldn't dare take pictures in this area. As for Wen Xian, you can ignore him completely. Nothing good ever comes out of his mouth."

Song Nianxing followed him, and his gaze landed on the kitten that had jumped down from the sofa at the sound of their arrival. His eyes instantly lit up.

So Shen Siyi really did have a cat at home.

While he was thinking this, a cat teaser with a little bell was pressed into his hand, and Shen Siyi's voice rang out again.

"Besides, even if we were photographed, it wouldn't matter. Aren't we on a dating show right now? I've seen quite a few people supporting us as a couple."

Hearing this, Song Nianxing suddenly remembered the shipping video of himself and Shen Siyi that he'd come across that day. His eyes blinked guiltily several times, and he pretended not to know about it as he asked, "Really? How strange. There are actually people who think Senior Shen and I could be a couple. I wonder what they're thinking."

Shen Siyi actually knew that the two of them had shippers.

Then he must have seen those videos too, right?

What... would he think?

Oh, what could he possibly think?

Shen Siyi was surely only acting out of pity for him. Could Shen Siyi actually like him? Support them as a couple?

"Not at all. I think they're right to support us. I support us too."

As Shen Siyi's words reached his ears, the cat teaser in Song Nianxing's hand shook involuntarily.

The bell's crisp ring briefly echoed, and the kitten immediately began bouncing around his feet. He crouched down, not daring to look at Shen Siyi.

"Senior Shen... you support us? Oh, I get it. It must be because those videos are edited so well, right?"

"I never said I was looking at videos."

As Shen Siyi spoke, he clearly noticed Song Nianxing pause in stroking the kitten. The corners of his lips curved faintly, and he continued:

"I know your head is already a mess today, but I still want to say this. Nianxing, I actually don't like meddling in other people's business."

He didn't like meddling in other people's business.

But Shen Siyi often helped him.

So was Shen Siyi saying that he, Song Nianxing, wasn't 'other people'??!!

Realizing this, Song Nianxing felt his heart beat faster and faster. He didn't know how to react and could only keep stroking the kitten.

Fortunately, Shen Siyi didn't continue. Instead, he chuckled softly and changed the subject. "Play with the kitten for now. I'll run you a bath and find you some clothes. I brought you back in such a hurry that I forgot to have you bring any of your own things."

After speaking, he turned and walked away. Song Nianxing listened to his footsteps: one step, two steps, then they stopped again.

Puzzled and nervous, Song Nianxing turned to look. Shen Siyi was taking a photo with his phone. Only when he saw Song Nianxing turn around did he slowly put it away, his obsidian eyes sparkling. "I wanted a keepsake, because it's very cute."

He paused briefly, then, after a moment, parted his thin lips again. "I'm not good at waiting either. I hope my kitten won't keep me waiting too long."

His voice echoed through the villa, and through Song Nianxing's mind as well.

Only after he had put on Shen Siyi's clothes and wrapped himself tightly in the covers did Song Nianxing barely regain his senses.

Far too much had happened today.

For the first time, things between him and Jiang Jingzhe had reached such an irreparable point, and for the first time, he had seen this side of Jiang Jingzhe. He didn't understand why Jiang Jingzhe felt such intense hostility toward Shen Siyi.

And had Shen Siyi confessed his feelings to him today?

But how was that possible? How could Shen Siyi like him? Could it be that he'd been really good at it that first time? Had Shen Siyi liked it?

No, no. Shen Siyi clearly seemed like the type with few worldly desires. How could he like him because of something like that!

Then what could it be? And he had understood what Shen Siyi meant by that last sentence. He wouldn't wait long for him and wanted his response. But how was he supposed to respond?

Song Nianxing thought it over and over but couldn't make sense of it. In the end, he worked himself into such a state of frustration that he buried himself under the covers.

Meanwhile, next door, the Shen Siyi who had "few worldly desires" was already breathing unsteadily. As he watched the projected image of Song Nianxing curled up on the bed, the corners of his eyes flushed red with barely restrained desire.

His Ah Xing was now wearing clothes he had worn, lying in a bed he had slept in. Their scents mingled at this moment, and just thinking of it made Shen Siyi tremble uncontrollably with excitement.

Did his Ah Xing trust him that much?

That really made him want to do some bad things even more~

Would Ah Xing hate him if he was too bad?

No, his Ah Xing couldn't hate him! He could only like him! He could only like him!

Shen Siyi thought as if possessed, then turned his gaze to the photo he had just taken. His crazed expression abruptly softened.

Then he picked up his phone and began composing a Weibo post.

["Kitten" and kitten's first meeting, cuties]

The instant he tapped send, Shen Siyi looked at the person in the projection again, and the smile on his lips once more took on a hint of obsession.

Jiang Jingzhe, this time, he's mine.
