Chapter 44: He Became the Left-behind Cat after the First Separation
People have a strong ability to form habits. Zhou Weiyi was not used to riding in Bai Yanan's car at first, but later, it didn't take long for him to get used to it as it was not for him picking her up and dropping her off.

He didn't remember that Bai Yawei had accompanied him to squeeze into the subway for a long time before, but he could feel that it was a very familiar thing for the two of them to go to and from get off work together like this.

In order not to disturb Bai Yanan from picking him up on time after get off work, he never worked a minute longer and left when the time came.

As for overtime, it is absolutely impossible.

Bai Yanan always picks him up on time at his drop-off point, but of course there are exceptions.

That day, Zhou Weiyi got off work as usual and walked downstairs, but he did not see the familiar car.

He doesn't like to be late, nor does he like others to be late, but he still waits patiently.

As a result, I waited for more than an hour.

Just when he accepted that Bai Yanan had stood him up and was planning to go home alone, the familiar car finally appeared.

When he opened the car door, he found that the person driving was not Bai Yanan, but Qian, the housekeeper in the villa.

"What about her?"

He didn't even realize that he asked this question subconsciously and almost anxiously.

"Miss Bai ran into something urgent and left Shengcheng this afternoon. She asked me to take you back to the villa to stay for a few days."

Zhou Weiyi didn't like going back to the villa. When he saw that the person who came to pick him up was not Bai Yanan, and asked him to go back to the villa, he turned around angrily and was about to leave.

"Miss Bai said that she has changed the password to the house you live in. You can't get in even if you go back. If you don't go back to the villa, you will end up living on the streets."

Zhou Weiyi: “…”

This woman, not only did she leave me and run away without saying a word, she even went so far as to trip me up!
Because Bai Yanan was worried about other people coming to pick up Zhou Weiyi, Uncle Qian, who was temporarily asked to come over, saw that he was unhappy and then told him another thing that Bai Yanan had instructed him to do.

"Miss Bai also said that if you stay in the villa for a few days, she will give you a reward when she comes back."

This sounds like the rhetoric used to coax children.

He didn't want any reward, but he was sure that Bai Yanan would not let him enter the house and change the secret.

And he had nowhere else to go except that house and company.

You can't really let yourself live on the streets.

"Why didn't she tell me she was leaving?"

"Miss Bai said that you were at work and it would be inconvenient to disturb you. She was in a hurry to catch a flight, so she asked me to pass it on."

Zhou Weiyi didn't think much of it at first, and immediately called Bai Yanan, but the phone was turned off.

Even though he didn't think she was a good person, they had been together for so long and she had never left him for no reason.

He thought that maybe something really happened to her.

He couldn't help her with what she was experiencing, so she shouldn't cause him any more trouble.

Although he was extremely reluctant, he finally got in the car and went back to the villa with Uncle Qian.

He was used to living in a small house, so he felt very uncomfortable walking into an empty villa without any familiar people around.

Until I returned to the room where I was going to stay and saw a familiar object on the bed.

Before leaving, Bai Yanan not only arranged his daily necessities and clothes in advance and brought them to the villa, but also brought his teddy bear.

"By the way, Miss Bai also specifically told me that if any strange people come to you in the next few days, you don't have to pay any attention to them."

Zhou Weiyi couldn't imagine that he would be approached by such a strange person.

The person he currently thinks is the strangest is Bai Yanan, who lives with him.

He could never figure out what she was going to do next.

The person was not around at the moment, so he couldn't ask even if he wanted to.

Bai Yanan didn't tell him in advance when she left, but she called him after getting off the plane at night. During the call, she didn't tell him where she was going, and after confirming that he was safely in the villa, she said she had something else to do and hung up.

Zhou Weiyi felt unfamiliar with her impetuous way of doing things, which did not give people any chance to speak.

When the two were together, Bai Yanan almost never ignored his needs for communication.

He suddenly realized that although he was clearly dissatisfied with her, he had been taking her care of his life and spirit for granted.

So I have always been the one who has been relying on her unconsciously, and it has never been that she cannot live without me?

He thought that since Bai Yanan was not at home, there would be no one to bother him, and there would be someone to take care of his food and daily life, so he would feel much more comfortable.

In fact, it didn't.

Bai Yanan was not around, and he felt inexplicably lost.

Bai Yanan left in a hurry and did not specify how long she would be gone. He wanted to know when she would return, but he could not ask.

Even during those days, Bai Yanan would still send him messages every day out of her guardianship responsibilities.

He could get the answer if he just typed a few more words during her routine greeting.

But every time he saw her message, he had already typed a complete sentence, but in the end he deleted it and just replied to her with a symbol.

Bai Yanan, who was forced to go on a business trip with Lin Mingxue by buying her a plane ticket without any negotiation, was curled up in a chair by the hotel swimming pool. When she saw his perfunctory reply, the pretty girl sighed.

I was worried that he wouldn't be able to get used to my sudden departure, and felt a little guilty for being out playing while he was working at home. Well, he doesn't care about me at all.

"Woman, why are you sighing so long? Is it wronged for you to accompany me on this business trip?"

When she sighed, Lin Mingxue who was walking over happened to hear it.

"Following Miss Lin, you can eat and drink delicious food and get paid. How can I feel wronged?"

Bai Yanan turned off the screen of her mobile phone and looked at Lin Mingxue.

"If you want me to be your stunt double next time, could you please let me know a little in advance?"

Ever since the accident that happened when she and Gao Yubin went diving, Lin Mingxue has developed a huge fear of swimming and diving. She is unable to complete this type of daily filming by herself and has to rely on a stand-in.

Originally, she had her own dedicated stand-in, but that stand-in had some temporary problems and was unable to show up. In order not to affect the filming progress, Bai Yanan, who was of the same size as her, was brought in to save the situation.

It wasn't the first time Bai Yanan had helped her with this, but she usually would tell her in advance. This time, it was very hasty.

It only took three or four hours from booking the flight ticket to departure. If Uncle Qian hadn't helped, she wouldn't know how to accommodate Zhou Weiyi.

"I think the timing is just right. It also gives you time to settle the kitten."

Lin Mingxue didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all and even said she wanted to buy some canned food for Bai Yanan's kitten.

Bai Yanan thought about her 1.8-meter-tall cat and rejected her kindness.

"He's a big cat who works at a cat cafe and earns his own canned food. He won't eat what you give him."

"Your cat likes to be self-reliant just like you do? You are like your owner, like your cat!"

"Of course not! I made quite a lot of money!"

Bai Yanan is a bit of a person who doesn't like to be praised and almost gets carried away.

Fortunately, when she almost couldn't hold back and told Lin Mingxue everything, the director called her to go into the water for filming.

Lin Mingxue just turned around to follow when she saw the screen of her mobile phone beside her light up and a message popped up.

"My cactus is dying of thirst."

The sender's remark nickname is: Don't eat carrots.
