Chapter 95: Saving the Innocent Little Cat 16

Jin Chen also didn't pursue it, instead he looked at Yun Mi, who seemed a bit dazed.

"What are you thinking about?"

Yun Mi scratched her head, "Why did she say we're so sweet?"

"Mr. Jin and I aren't friends, are we?"

Jin Chen repeated, "Friends?"

He raised an eyebrow, looking at the little cat who really seemed unable to understand.

"Alright, my wife hasn't opened her apertures yet."

"Maybe she thinks we look like a couple."

Jin Chen brushed it off casually, and they moved on from this topic.

"Let's go, let's try other attractions."

He still held Yun Mi's hand as they left the somewhat crowded crowd.

Yun Mi, however, keenly noticed that Mr. Jin's smile had withdrawn a bit, seeming not too happy.

He didn't know what had happened; just a moment ago, weren't they fine?

Thinking this, Yun Mi's mood also sank a little; the finger being held by Jin Chen curled slightly, and he gathered courage to ask.

"Mr. Jin, what's wrong?"

"Huh?"

Jin Chen was thinking about how to let his wife open her apertures when he heard Yun Mi ask this out of the blue, and he felt a bit puzzled.

"What's wrong?"

Yun Mi stopped walking, "I just feel like Mr. Jin suddenly seems unhappy."

"A cat's feeling is very keen."

"As long as there's the slightest movement, it will immediately notice."

He tiptoed, his slender fingers brushed Jin Chen's eyebrows, "Mr. Jin, don't be unhappy."

Jin Chen lowered his gaze to look at Yun Mi, but the little cat herself slightly furrowed her brows, lightly biting her lips, seeming rather insecure.

He suddenly took Yun Mi's hand, pulled her into his embrace, stroked the back of her neck, and softly cooed, his handsome face full of affection.

"Be good, I'm not unhappy, don't overthink."

Yun Mi instinctively hugged Jin Chen, rubbing her face against his chest like a cat each time she acts cute in his embrace, speaking softly.

"Then what is Mr. Jin thinking about?"

Jin Chen's motion paused slightly, then after a few moments he said.

"Thinking, how can I make the person I like realize that I like them a lot?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Mi first froze; after understanding his meaning, her heart welled up with an inexplicable emotion, fine and dense.

"Mr. Jin……do you have someone you like?"

But why have I never heard him say it before?

Not even at home.

Yun Mi lowered her gaze helplessly, her cat eyes filled with a panic she herself didn't understand.

He left Jin Chen's embrace, stood upright, his hands tangled.

Suddenly it occurred to him: Mr. Jin is so outstanding, having a partner is normal; moreover… moreover, if I can't keep this secret, I'll still have to leave.

Otherwise, when the time comes, Mr. Jin's partner discovering a monster at home would surely be frightened.

Bright sunshine scattered, falling on her exquisite, pretty face; Yun Mi's curled, long eyelashes drooped, her brows and eyes listless.

Clearly that's what he was thinking, yet why did he suddenly feel unhappy?

The cat really couldn't understand such a complicated problem.

Only knowing that Mr. Jin, who had always been good and gentle to him, suddenly seemed no longer belonging to him.

Jin Chen observed Yun Mi's expression, his brows arrogantly raised, a flash of slyness passing through his eyes, continuing with ill intent.

"Yeah, he's cute, I like him a lot."

Yun Mi listened, the corner of her mouth slightly twisted, her eye sockets unconsciously reddening.

Mr. Jin has always praised me as cute, why is he using that adjective to praise someone else?

"Hey you guys!"

A child's tender voice broke the two's silence.

A cute little girl in a dress, holding a flower basket, asked Jin Chen.

"Older brother, want to buy flowers? They're very pretty! You can give them to someone you like! You can also keep them as a beautiful memory!"

Just in time.

Jin Chen took the best-looking rose and paid.

"Thank you."

"Thank you for your support, older brother! Wish you have fun today!"

The little girl skipped away again.

The rose spun at his fingertips, Jin Chen lowered his head to smell it, there were no other issues.

Yun Mi suppressed the inexplicable urge to cry.

"Mr. Jin, are you giving it to someone you like?"

Jin Chen nodded, curled his lips into a smile, "Yeah."

"……"

Yun Mi suddenly turned around, tightly biting her lip, a fine pain welled up in her heart, a very strange emotion.

The little cat had never felt such a strange emotion; he didn't know what was wrong with himself, only knowing that Mr. Jin had someone he liked, and he seemed rather unhappy.

But that was wrong.

But the next second.

Jin Chen's rose went around his back and was delivered to his chest.

His low, rich voice sounded softly, like a spring breeze blowing past the ears, making hearts itch.

Then will the person I like accept this rose?

Yun Mi widened his cat eyes in surprise.

Jin Chen rested his chin on the little cat's shoulder, embracing him in an absolutely protective pose, "It's truly troubling; the person I like seems unaware that I like him."

"Mr. Jin..."

Yun Mi's voice trembled slightly, utterly disbelieving.

"Is the person you like... me?"

"Yes, it's you."

Jin Chen lightly kissed the little cat's cheek, "So cute, who else could it be?"

Their body heat transmitted through the fabric, like a current surging wildly, making Yun Mi's heart itch.

His little heart was like a fawn, bumping and colliding.

Yun Mi suddenly understood why he was unhappy.

Because... he liked him.

Once this thought arose, all his uneasy feelings seemed to have an excuse—because he liked him, because of possessiveness, he didn't want Mr. Jin to be so kind to others.

Yun Mi took the rose from Jin Chen's hand, suddenly turned, and flung himself back into Jin Chen's embrace.

"I like... I like Mr. Jin, not as a friend."

He spoke somewhat incoherently, merely too excited and at a loss.

Jin Chen, however, heard him clearly.

"I'm very happy."

He rubbed his chin against the top of the head, Jin Chen's low laugh: "Very happy, the person I like can also like me."

Yun Mi nodded lightly, gripping the corner of Jin Chen's waist cloth, raising his watery cat eyes, "Mr. Jin, you said before, you can't go back on it."

"What did you say?"

Yun Mi's cheeks flushed slightly, he bit his moist, rosy lips, "You said, if I grew cat ears, I wouldn't find it strange."

"Of course."

Knowing the little cat still lacked a sense of security, Jin Chen lightly kissed his cheek, "No matter what you look like, I won't find it strange."

"Hnn..."

Yun Mi let out a sob, clinging tightly to Jin Chen's embrace, suddenly feeling that telling Jin Chen his monster identity would be completely fine.

Because he is Mr. Jin, the best person in the whole world to him.

"Mr. Jin, wait, wait a few days, I'll tell you a secret."

"Okay."

Jin Chen and Yun Mi locked eyes.

"But should we change this form of address?"

Yun Mi blinked, "A Chen..."

Hearing that familiar nickname again, Jin Chen's heart jumped, and he lowered his head to kiss Yun Mi's lips.
