Affectionate trapping

Chapter 28 Shen Yuli's Past
As soon as Wen Xi poured the cat food into the basin, they rushed to surround him. One of them was still eating, and his mouth seemed to be able to fill the entire basin. She couldn't help laughing, and reached out to touch its back. touch.

"Has your master been starving you for a long time?"

The cats didn't recognize their relatives, but they weren't close either. They wouldn't be too repulsive to her touch, but they wouldn't rub coquettishly like they did with Shen Yuli.

Even so, Wen Xi also thinks they are cute.

Yao Manqing was observing the interior furnishings and murals, "It's so artistic, it looks like a scholar."

"I'm a scholar, T University is not something anyone can get into if they want to."

Wen Xi looked up and saw a few books on the shelf, as if he was tired of reading them and threw them away casually, and then thought of the book Shen Yuli recommended to her the day before yesterday: "He should usually love reading."

Yao Manqing snorted and said, "Put on airs."

A cat jumped on the sofa when it was full, and she was startled and stood up suddenly.

Wen Xi laughed out loud: "Don't be afraid, a cat won't scratch people suddenly, as long as you don't tease it."

"Then I'm afraid too." She changed to sit across from her and said, "I don't know what to do with so many cats. Are you planning to open a pet shop?"

"If you think about meowing all day, it's annoying to death."

Wen Xi smiled without saying a word, and tentatively touched a cat, but it jumped up and ran towards Shen Yuli who had just come downstairs.

Shen Yuli changed into a gray top and home clothes, which made people very white, and her hair fell softly on her forehead, looking more energetic than before.

He leaned over and picked up the cat that ran to his feet, stretched out his fingers and scratched its back, and the cat narrowed its eyes comfortably.

Wen Xi looked at this scene a little envious, and she also wanted to hug the cat in her arms.

Shen Yuli caught her fleeting emotions, walked up to her with the cat in his arms, and put his hand in her arms.

Wen Xi was startled, but didn't dare to answer: "Will it catch me suddenly?"

"No." He placed it firmly on her wrist, and his warm fingers brushed against her wrist, making it slippery and soft.

He paused with his finger, retracted it as if nothing had happened, and patted the cat's head: "Be good."

Wen Xi didn't notice, and tentatively put his hand on Mao Mao's head.

It is estimated that Shen Yuli's obedient voice had a suppressive effect, so that the cat accepted the fact that it was hugged by a different person very calmly.

Seeing it so obediently in her arms, Wen Xi raised her head and bent her eyes towards Shen Yuli, as if there were broken stars in her eyes.

Shen Yuli's eyes flickered slightly, looking at the well-served Xiao Wen in her arms, feeling a little jealous for no reason.

"What's it called? Does it have a name?"

"..." He touched his nose: "It's superfluous."

"Ok?"

"It's called redundancy."

Wen Xi: "..."

She was curious about the names of the others, "What about the others?"

"...It's all superfluous."

"?"

He turned around like a cover-up: "Anyway, they all look similar, and the names are complicated and easy to distinguish. They all come here when they are called by one name."

Wen Xi couldn't put it into words: "What's the difference between this and calling them Mimi?"

"It's different from other people's cats."

Wen Xi couldn't help laughing.

Watching this scene, Yao Manqing frowned suddenly, and said, "When did your house change its decoration?"

Shen Yuli went to check the cat litter box, saw the cat feces inside, and held his breath to clean it up, "I changed it before. I have a friend whose wife is an interior designer, so I designed it casually."

His movements are very skilled, and he cleaned up the messy living room in a short while. When he walked around, the cats circled around him, which was a little warm.

Yao Manqing watched silently, feeling inexplicably that he had never known this son before.

Wen Xi observed Yao Manqing's expression while stroking the cat.

Time passed quickly, when it was eleven o'clock, Shen Yuli said, "There is no food at home, I'll go down and buy some."

He grabbed the car keys: "What do you want to eat?"

Yao Manqing said casually, "You can buy whatever you want."

"Row."

"You can go to the balcony, where the light is good." He changed his shoes: "Then I'm leaving."

After the people left, Yao Manqing got up directly, "Let's go up and have a look."

"Ah." Wen Xi felt it was inappropriate: "Go up by yourself, I won't go."

"Isn't the balcony upstairs?" Yao Manqing grabbed her hand: "Let's go."

"Ok."

Shen Yuli's house is not that big. There are four rooms in total. The downstairs is the study and the guest room, and the upstairs is the bedroom and bathroom.

Yao Manqing pushed open the door of the master bedroom, and saw a very simple room, cool tones, European-style architecture, a bed and a wardrobe, leading to the balcony and bathroom. The bed is quite big, almost four people can lie down.

She looked back at Wen Xi who didn't come in at the station gate: "What are you doing at the station gate? Come in."

"I……"

"Come in, it leads to the balcony."

Wen Xi just stepped in, and at a glance saw the bouquet of flowers on the coffee table, the murals on the wall, and the oversized bed, with a light fragrance of flowers and grass that had just rained.

The smell was so comforting, she wanted to ask him what perfume he used, it smelled so good.

Yao Manqing: "The bed is quite big, he sleeps in such a big bed by himself."

According to Wen Xi's visual inspection, it is indeed quite big.

"Maybe he likes to sleep big."

There were two books beside the pillow, she pointed to them and said, "Look, his books are all placed by the bed, I just said he likes to read."

Yao Manqing glanced at it, but said nothing.

The window was wide open, and the wind came in, blowing the hem of her skirt.

Green potted plants and flowers are placed on the balcony, and there is a glass table next to railing lounge chairs.

Yao Manqing observed inch by inch, and Wen Xi said next to her, "I can't tell he's quite good at living."

She turned her head and said in a critical tone, "Idlers like to play with flowers and plants."

Wen Xi laughed.

After a pause for a few seconds, Yao Manqing said abruptly, "Xiaoxi, I suddenly felt that I might never have known him before."

"Ok?"

"When he first came home, I thought I had never brought him up, felt guilty, and wanted to make up for him, but later I found out that he has a wild personality, and I can't teach him back. Although his grades are not bad, he fights every day. Every time I receive a call from his teacher, I feel a thump in my heart, knowing that he is causing trouble again."

"Later in the third year of high school, he calmed down a bit, but every time there were guests at home, he disappeared. Relatives wanted to see him and talk to him, but he didn't even have a good face, and he didn't know how to smile. Every meeting is awkward. Someone told me that this child has been raised badly in the country, he is not polite, and he can’t be taught back.”

"I just thought, ask his grandma, why did I, a good boy, have such a bad temper, but his grandma was gone at that time, so let me ask who to ask."

Wen Xi couldn't help asking: "Why didn't you bring him back earlier?"

Yao Manqing sighed: "When he was 12 years old, my father and I went to take him away with Yu Zhou. He didn't recognize us, and he didn't intend to leave at all. He made a lot of friends over there and came here. He didn’t see anyone when he ran away, and he was very dependent on his grandma, we went there for several days in a row, but he didn’t give us a good face, just smiled at his grandma.”

"Yu Zhou said that he is now in junior high school, which is the time when he likes to play rebellion, otherwise he will come back later."

"We have no choice but to go back."

　Qingqing: What are you doing alone in such a big bed?
　　Shen Yuli: Huh?Can you say that?
