Chapter 98: Saving the Innocent Little Kitten 19

After confirming Jin Chen had entered the bathroom, Yun Mi quickly got up.

First, he dragged the food tray to the trash can, dumped most of it, then went to the side table and grabbed a few sheets of tissue to cover the cat food inside the trash can.

Only then did he feel relieved and use his front paw to rub his belly.

Phew, I almost got overstuffed!

Thus, when Jin Chen finished washing up and came out, all that remained in the cat food bowl was a little bit at the bottom.

His eyes held a smile as his gaze swept the room, finally lingering momentarily on the trash can and the cabinet.

"Meow~" Achen, hug hug~

Seeing him come out, Yun Mi stood up, his fluffy paws rubbing against his pant leg.

Bending over to pick up the kitten, Jin Chen pinched its pink lower lip with his fingertips and teased, "You finished that already?"

"Meow!" Yes, yes!

Yun Mi, afraid of giving himself away, didn't dare look at the corner cabinet, only softly calling for Jin Chen to play with him.

He was just teasing; Jin Chen had no intention of letting his wife overeat, hugging and kissing him, asking, "Bao Bao, do you want to take a bath?"

"Meow~"

Yun Mi definitely wanted to; a clean cat wouldn't allow itself to be dirty and smelly!

He clung to Jin Chen's neck, his fluffy cat head bobbing up and down.

Bathing the kitten didn't require a tub; he simply filled the sink with warm water, Jin Chen rolled up his sleeves, one hand supporting its chin to keep its head above water, the other hand supporting its bottom as he placed it in the warm water.

"Meow~"

Yun Mi gave a contented shake, his cat eyes half-closed in lazy bliss.

Seeing him like that, Jin Chen mischievously scooped up water and splashed it onto the kitten's head.

The kitten's head immediately tilted to the side.

"Meow!" What the heck!

Yun Mi disliked the feeling of water on his head, feeling heavy, he quickly shook his head to shake it off, and his hind legs kicked at Jin Chen's arm.

"Bao Bao's head has its own unique sensing system."

Jin Chen let out a low laugh.

——

It's been almost a month since arriving in this little world, Jin Chen still suffers from insomnia, but holding Yun Mi helps a lot—likely the nourishment of the Sleepy Cat Clan's Monster Power.

As usual, Jin Chen changed into sleepwear, still holding the kitten as he lay in bed, while the tablet played Yun Mi's recorded ASMR sleep aid video.

The recent update features a feather-swept camera visual guide and soft whispering.

When Yun Mi recorded it, he deliberately infused Monster Power into the feathers; a light sweep of the lens brings a bit of drowsiness, and combined with the whispered chant, the effect is excellent.

The comment section is filled with nothing but hehehe hahaha.

"Mi Mi, why have you been updating only during the day lately? If I don't understand, I'll ask—do you not have internet at home at night? (crying)"

"Daytime ASMR, nighttime food and ghosts—I'm basically done for with this account!"

"Mi Mi's hands are so pretty!! prprpr~"

"Ten thousand people in a blood‑signed petition beg Mi Mi to record a face‑reveal video!! Let me see what the little monster looks like!"

And so on.

Looking at Jin Chen scrolling through the comment section, the kitten in his arms shifted uncomfortably, feeling an inexplicable sense of shame.

Yun Mi had also considered a face‑reveal video before, but Shang Le said he wasn't a looks‑based streamer, so there was no need to show his face—just film the videos honestly.

So this matter has been postponed all along.

【Host~ I've found out! Want to hear it before you sleep?】

0731 felt the urgency of this matter required immediate disclosure, so he didn't wait until tomorrow.

【Go ahead.】

【The two people you had me investigate today ultimately went to the same place—a very secluded room in the Song family residence, where the person is Song Che's monster‑hunter uncle.】

Jin Chen lowered his gaze, a dark hue flickering in his eyes.

As expected, it was Song Yan.

【Song Che wants Song Yan to quickly extract the inner elixir, after all the Sleepy Cat Clan has no offensive power, so for a monster hunter it's no problem.】

【Keep monitoring and report any movement immediately.】

【Sure thing, Host—you can relax.】

In the space, 0731 opened his little mouth and yawned, then flew to the rest area and slowly lay down to sleep.

Jin Chen stroked Yun Mi's soft, fluffy fur, and an idea formed in his mind.

As long as Song Yan dares to come, we can render him useless.

But to prevent them from attacking Yun Mi, we must protect him at all times.

"Meow~"

Yun Mi licked Jin Chen's neck, wondering why he still wasn't asleep.

Could it be that my Monster Power has no effect on Achen?

"Bao Bao, let me tell you something."

Jin Chen suddenly smiled, beginning his ruse to expose the pretender.

Looking at the kitten's puzzled yet curious blue eyes, Jin Chen said.

"Today I'm together with the person I like—he's adorable, and once he moves in, you'll like him too."

"Meow……"

Yun Mi blinked his cat eyes; Achen's suggestion might be hard to pull off.

"Tomorrow I'll bring him back to see you, okay?"

"Meow!" What!

His originally drowsy mind instantly cleared up.

Yun Mi lay on Jin Chen's chest, lifted his head to look at him, his cat eyes full of surprise.

Let myself look at the cat! No…… let myself look at myself!

This! What should we do about this!

I'm not even ready yet!

I'm about to reveal my cat paws, meow!

"Meow meow meow!"

Yun Mi shook his head, rubbing against Jin Chen's chest, his four paws taking turns kicking, seeming very reluctant.

"Bao Bao doesn't like it?"

Jin Chen reached out and picked up the little kitten, pinching its paws as he spoke.

"But this isn't good, he's someone I like; doing this would make him unhappy."

The kitten won't listen; the kitten won't be unhappy!

Like trying to escape, Yun Mi burrowed into Jin Chen's chest, refusing to come out no matter how he moved, his hind legs straining, his throat emitting a mew-mew sound.

Jin Chen could only give up.

However, what Yun Mi didn't expect was that the exposure would come faster than he imagined.

——

The next morning.

After seeing Jin Chen off to the company, Yun Mi as usual turned into human form and put on clothes.

First he replied to Jin Chen's message, then he logged onto the video site and cleared the inventory.

Today he plans to film another episode of a video with light feather brushing plus whispering, and also the sound of tapping a glass cup.

After getting the needed tools ready, Yun Mi closed the door, seriously recorded the video, circulating Monster Power to infuse.

He didn't notice that the camera, which hadn't moved in several days, had turned to a new angle.

Yun Mi opened the recording and whispered softly into the microphone.

"Hey~ Welcome back~ Yun Mi Miu's —— ASMR channel."

After the greeting, he began rubbing his fingers, switching between left and right ears, then picked up a transparent glass cup, his fair and delicate fingertips lightly tapping the cup wall.

The whisper accompanied by the tapping sound softly rang out.

"Recently, Miu has encountered many many…… happy things, so his mood has been very good lately~"

Yun Mi wore headphones; usually no one comes into the apartment during the day, so he didn't notice the faint sound coming from the Main Gate.

Jin Chen put down his keys, wearing a playful smile, deliberately slowed his steps, and walked toward Yun Mi's room.

The room door was opened.

Yun Mi was startled, quickly lifted his head.

He and Jin Chen stared at each other.
