You're Beautiful When You Smile - Chapter 81 Part 1

You’re Beautiful When You Smile
Chapter 81 Part 1

Tong Yao was looking at the little kitten lying next to her hand and figured that Lu Sicheng wasn’t here to pick her up but to prevent her from stealing a kitten…...She mindlessly replied to the pet shop worker: “You got it wrong, he’s my co-worker, not my boyfriend-- --”

Lu Sicheng happened to push the door open and walk in just then and hear Tong Yao’s denial.

His hand paused on the door. Tong Yao was looking down and didn’t see him. When she raised her head up, Lu Sicheng had already removed the expression on his face and was standing right in front of Tong Yao with a poker face. He took a look at the kitten next to her, the expression on his face somehow became even more inscrutable: “Didn’t you come here to get Dabing a bath?”

“......I am.”

Tong Yao pointed towards the back. Lu Sicheng looked in the direction where she was pointing and could see a struggling Ragdoll cat through the transparent glass window…...His facial expression relaxed a bit. He looked back and pointed at the kitten next to Tong Yao with his chin: “Why is Xu Tailun’s cat with you?”

“I happened to see you know that person who went out with him.” Tong Yao thought about it and didn’t know how to address that young lady: “You know, his that person. She took the kitten here to see the vet-- --They probably thought it had feline distemper like all weak cats, but the blood test shows the kitten just has the common cold……”

Tong Yao grabbed the blood test report on the desk to show him. Lu Sicheng took a glance without checking the details.

“This is why you plan to steal-- --”

Before he could finish his sentence, Tong Yao nervously covered his mouth-- --Lu
Sicheng cast his eyes down at her. His cold stare made Tong Yao rather embarrassed and she withdrew her hand. She rubbed her hands against each other and said uneasily: “Don’t say it out loud. The staff here would think that I’d really do that…...I’m just thinking that Xu Tailun and her don’t really want to raise the cat, nor know how, so why bother. If they had the kitten tested for feline distemper right after they bought it, then they didn’t need to bring the kitten to see a vet just for a cold. It hasn't gotten inoculated yet and it’s fragile against the germs in the hospital. A minor cold can be treated simply by keeping it warm and feeding it Synulox. Even the vet will only prescribe canned L-lysine for the common cold. How could they bring the kitten here? I asked the vet and the kitten doesn’t have a serious diarrhea problem either. They even asked the vet to give the kitten a shot. What does such a little kitten need a shot for-- --”

Lu Sicheng continued silently staring down at Tong Yao who had begun seriously nagging about raising a cat with furrowed brows.

He didn’t interrupt her.

Though he didn’t understand much of what she was saying, he didn’t really care about raising a kitten……

Lu Sicheng just quietly looked at her until she had finished all she wanted to say. Then he lightly said: “But this is somebody else’s cat now.”

“......” Tong Yao frowned again and suddenly lowered her voice: “I know. I can’t really steal it.”

Lu Sicheng paused for a moment.

He lifted his head to look beyond Tong Yao, then bluntly changed the subject: “How much longer for Dabing?”

Tong Yao took a look at Dabing, who was still struggling with the handler as if taking a bath would kill it, and relaxed her eyebrows a little. She looked at the clock in the shop and slightly sighed: “Who knows. They have to brush its hair afterwards, probably a little over an hour.”

“Then, I’ll wait for you in the car.”

“Eh? You don’t need to. I’ll go back myself…...What are you going to do sitting in the car for an hour?”

“I’ll watch some of OP’s competition videos. Time goes by fast that way.” Lu Sicheng walked towards the door while talking, but stopped after a few steps: “You want to come watch together?”

Tong Yao hesitantly took a look at the kitten next to her and was about to say nevermind. She heard Lu Sicheng speak again rather impatiently: “Make up your mind, quick. The air conditioning in the shop is set too low, I’m freezing.”

Tong Yao paused, checked the kitten sleeping on the mat which had nothing to cover it, then thought a bit before asking: “Then can I bring it with me to the car?”

Lu Sicheng had already pushed open the door. He replied before he walked out of the shop after hearing Tong Yao: “It’s up to you.” -- --Tong Yao didn’t expect the usually difficult Lu Sicheng to agree so easily. Somewhat surprised, she went to the worker in the shop to tell her if the owner of the kitten comes back, she could look for the kitten in the car parked in the front. Then Tong Yao brought the kitten with her and went to Lu Sicheng’s car.

Lu Sicheng had also turned on the air conditioning in the car, but hadn’t set the temperature too low. He also allowed Tong Yao to open the car window so the sunlight could shine directly onto the kitten which was lying on the mat on top of Tong Yao’s lap…...The kitten sneezed a few times, then seemed to breathe more easily with the warmth of the sunlight. Tong Yao stroked the kitten’s head with her fingertips while slightly squinting her eyes and turning her head sideways to watch the video on the cell phone in Lu Sicheng’s hand-- --

The sunlight was warm.

It was quiet inside the car.

There was only the sound of the commentators and the game.

  2. They haven't started any relationship yet, but they already look like a couple who's dating for a year, being comfortable to each other even just by sitting side by side.

    Lu Sicheng had to create a myriad of elaborate reasons for the kitty to get out of that cold vet clinic. Mensao guys are so troublesome!
