So sweet! She's pampered like a precious gem in her little world.

Chu Yu was so surprised that she forgot the pain and stared blankly as the man lowered his head like a believer and gently kissed the back of her foot.

A dragonfly's peck at the water is fleeting.

It seemed to be devoid of any alluring desires.

Shang Xuzhi didn't explain anything and continued to massage her calves and soles of her feet as if nothing had happened.

Bathed in the warm yellow light of the wall lamp in the room, Chu Yu stared blankly at the man who was focused on giving her a massage.

For some reason, there were moments when she vaguely felt a strange sense of familiarity with the man in front of her.

[Little Milk Cake.]

[What's wrong, host?]

How much more world-weariness does Shang Xuzhi have left?

[Congratulations, host! The target's world-weariness level is only 30%! Please keep up the good work and strive to completely reduce the world-weariness level to zero as soon as possible!]

Chu Yu was somewhat puzzled.

Over this period of time, she could clearly sense the changes in the man's demeanor and his attitude towards her.

She used to be his little cat, but that was all she could do.

Aside from emotional value, she had nothing to offer him.

Even so, before she became human, Shang Xuzhi's misanthropy level had already dropped by half!

No, is she really that amazing?

If she retires from the entertainment industry, opening a mental health clinic would be a perfect fit.

[Um, host, just a heads-up, I can see your inner thoughts. This is only the first world; thinking about these things now is a bit premature.]

A bucket of cold water was poured down.

Chu Yu was much more awake.

Then he remembered the real purpose of summoning Little Milk Cake.

Why do I always feel a strong sense of familiarity with Shang Xuzhi?

Little Milk Cake paused upon hearing this.

Then he quickly hung up and turned to his direct supervisor for help.

This question is beyond its authority to answer; it is necessary to consult with the authorities regarding how to handle it.

"Chu Chu?"

Chu Yu suddenly snapped out of her daze and realized that she had been staring blankly at Shang Xuzhi's massaging hands.

"Huh? What did you just say?"

Shang Xuzhi gazed at her intently, his expression showing no impatience, and asked in a low, gentle tone, "Are you feeling better? Do your calves and feet still hurt?"

Chu Yu tried moving her feet.

"It doesn't hurt anymore, thank you!"

As she spoke, she tried to pull her foot out of the man's arms.

To everyone's surprise, the man held onto her foot and wouldn't let go. Not only that, he leaned over and grabbed her other foot, pulling it into his lap, tucking it under his clothes, and placing it against his warm abdomen.

Chu Yu: "..."

"Why are my feet so cold even though I'm sleeping under the covers?"

It wasn't a blame or an interrogation; the tone only conveyed heartache and genuine doubt.

He clearly remembered that the kitten used to be warm when it slept.

Why is she so afraid of the cold now that she's a young girl?

The house already had a central air conditioning system with intelligent temperature control, because he had to be careful not to get cold due to his leg injury.

After the kitten arrived, Shang Xuzhi specifically consulted Dean Bai about whether the temperature in the house needed to be adjusted, and the answer he received was to observe the kitten's body temperature first.

If everything is normal for a few days, it means she is adapted to the room temperature and no adjustments are needed.

After a moment's thought, Shang Xuzhi figured it was probably because the weather had turned cooler recently, and the little girl had lost her thick fur coat, making her more sensitive to the cold.

"Feel sorry."

The man's tone suddenly became somewhat low.

Chu Yu couldn't keep up with his pace, so she simply stopped talking and waited quietly for him to finish.

Shang Xuzhi placed his hand on Chu Yu's instep and pressed her small foot, which she had secretly moved away, back in.

"Be good, okay?"

The intense physical training over the past few days has made the muscle lines on the man's body more defined and smooth.

At this moment, the soles of my feet are pressed firmly against my solid, burning abdominal muscles.

She could even tell which abs her feet were stepping on...

It must be said that a man's body temperature is indeed much higher than hers.

In no time, her feet were warm from being covered in warm compresses.

"I'm sorry, Chu Chu, I didn't think it through. Butler Chen will readjust the room temperature in a little while, and you won't be cold anymore."

Shang Xuzhi held the little girl's feet in his arms and explained in a deep voice.

It turned out to be because of this incident.

She had just seen the man's pained expression and assumed something terrible had happened.

"It's okay, I don't feel cold. Maybe my body just isn't used to it yet."

The little girl had just had a good sleep and her body was warmed up; she looked comfortable and content.

Then, Shang Xuzhi watched as a pair of fluffy, round little ears suddenly popped out from the top of her head.

It even trembled a little from the force of the bounce.

Looking at Chu Yu across from him, who had a sweet and gentle smile, he seemed completely unaware that his ears had secretly come out.

Shang Xuzhi: "..."

Can he let go of her feet now and then rub her ears?

Will she be angry?

Chu Yu didn't know why the man opposite her changed his expression the moment she finished speaking.

His eyes were dark and deep, his thin lips were tightly pressed together, and he didn't seem angry, but rather as if he was enduring something.

"Xiao Bao—"

"Ok?"

When Chu Yu answered, she would subconsciously tilt her head slightly.

It wasn't originally a very obvious movement.

However, her soft, bouncy ears would sway above her head with her movements.

This aroused the man's desire, so he silently swallowed hard and suppressed the impulse in his heart.

He paused, then continued in a hoarse voice, "We just finished training. An Chen said we can move on to the next stage tomorrow. Starting tomorrow, I'll be able to stand up again."

"Really!?"

Chu Yu really didn't expect this day to come so soon.

Didn't they say it would take at least three months?

He can already stand up after just over a month?

However, the news was indeed very exciting. Chu Yu was a little lost in thought and, thinking of herself as a little Minut, stretched out her paws and pounced into the man's arms.

Shang Xuzhi was not expected that the little girl would suddenly throw herself into his arms. His body reacted faster than his brain, and he subconsciously reached out and caught her firmly in his arms.

"Be careful, little one—"

The wheelchair's frame is made of sturdy titanium alloy. The little girl is very delicate, and if she accidentally bumps or hurts herself, she will definitely cry.

Chu Yu was held in the man's arms like a little crab, her legs passing through the armrests of the wheelchair and draped over her sides, while her arms were wrapped around the man's neck with some effort.

This position made Chu Yu's ears stand erect right in front of the man's eyes.

This is such blatant seduction.

Shang Xuzhi was completely fed up with it.

He lowered his head slightly and gently kissed her pink earlobe with his thin lips.

The sensitive cat's ears twitched and spun rapidly after being stimulated.

This also made Chu Yu realize that her cat ears had popped out.

She was so embarrassed that she tried desperately to pull her ears back, but the more she tried, the less effective she became.

Seeing her flushed face, Shang Xuzhi felt a pang of pity and pulled her closer into his arms, gently coaxing her, "Alright, alright, don't rush."

Chu Yu was indeed no longer in a hurry.

Because she encountered an even more awkward situation.

"you--"

Shang Xuzhi felt a little embarrassed and coughed lightly, "Sorry, Chuchu, it will be over soon."

next second.

Behind the little girl stood a large, fluffy tail.
