Revenge of the Garfield

Erhuang couldn’t contain his excitement and kept touching Li Zhenruo with his nose, licking the hair on his back.

       And Li Zhenruo who hadn’t seen Erhuang for a long time and kept rubbing Erhuang’s back and soft abdomen with his face.

       A dog and a cat had been making out in this secluded corner for a long time, but no one in the Li family noticed. When Li Zhenruo saw that it was almost time, he left Erhuang and ran toward the villa.

       However, Erhuang didn’t understand why he suddenly left, and hurriedly followed behind his ass and ran there.

       Li Zhenruo stopped, turned around, and raised a paw to shake Erhuang.

       Erhuang didn’t understand what it meant, because Li Zhenruo was playing with it, so he crawled down, wagging his tail to Li Zhenruo and happily barking.

       Li Zhenruo was startled, but fortunately, Erhuang’s bark didn’t alarm the people in the room.

       He thought for a while, returned to Erhuang, put his paw on Erhuang’s chest and stood upright, and put the other paw on its forehead.

       Usually, Zhu Kai would tame Erhuang from time to time. This action means to let Erhuang stay where he was and not follow him.

       But there was a difference in how a cat did it after all, Erhuang tilted his head and didn’t understand what he meant.

       Li Zhenruo turned around and continued to run forward, but Erhuang was still following behind him, so he had to stop again and do the same gesture to Erhuang.

       When he did the same action for the third time, Er Huang probably understood. It sat down on the spot, and its tail swayed from side to side, but the swing was not that big.

       Li Zhenruo saw Erhuang’s reluctant look and its eyes wet under the light. Suddenly, he felt a little reluctant to part with Erhuang.

       But this time was different from before. Li Zhenruo couldn’t take it away, he could only look at it again, then turned around and went behind the villa.

       Erhuang just sat there and looked at him.

       It was not yet nine o’clock at night.

       Li Zhenruo found that Li Jianglin was already lying on the bed early in the morning, and Zhu Kai was also in his room. He jumped up on the windowsill, hid behind the curtains, took a peek at the probe, and quickly retracted his head.

       Although he only glanced at it, he could see clearly that Li Jianglin was lying on the bed and seemed to be a little sick, while Zhu Kai was sitting on the edge of the bed, wantonly raising one leg and resting it on Li Jianglin’s bed, the chair beneath him tilted back restlessly.

       Zhu Kai said, “Look at you, you are so sick that no son of you is willing to stay by your side.”

       Li Jianglin didn’t speak, but his breathing was a little heavy, and it sounded like he was having trouble breathing.

       Zhu Kai then said in his condescending tone, “So, what’s the use of raising so many sons? If it’s not your own, then it’s not your own. You just don’t have a son in this life to see you off to the afterlife1.”

       Li Zhenruo was startled, then realized that Zhu Kai knew about this from the beginning. He suddenly recalled that when Zhu Kai had just finished making trouble at the wedding of Li Zhentai and Wen Chun, he caught Zhu Kai on the street, and Zhu Kai mysteriously told him that he knew a secret about the Li family.

       At that time, Li Zhenruo couldn’t figure out what secret was worth mentioning so solemnly by Zhu Kai, but now he thought he may understand.

       Li Jianglin made a ragged gasp in his throat, and he said in a hoarse voice, “Get out of here!”

       Zhu Kai didn’t seem to care at all. He crossed his hands behind his head and asked Li Jianglin, “What’s the point of being angry, who is here to watch you when I went out? You don’t want the nurse to come in to guard you, and your son won’t come back.”

       Li Jianglin didn’t speak this time, closing his eyes and ignoring him.

       Zhu Kai then sat alone by the bed and began to hum a song out of tune.

       There was a strangely calm atmosphere between the two. Li Zhenruo hid outside the window, wondering how long they would stay silent. He was thinking about whether he should go back earlier and tell Li Zhenran that Li Jianglin was very sick so that Li Zhenran could come back to see him.

       To be honest, Li Zhenruo felt a little uncomfortable seeing Li Jianglin like this. He was very conflicted since he felt that he should hate Li Jianglin. Li Jianglin knew his identity from the beginning, but he still abandoned him after he was exposed by Li Zhentai and the others. He chose to sacrifice him to keep this secret, just like Li Zhenran thought, he should hate Li Jianglin for being unfair to him.

       But up to now, those strong emotions in the past seemed to have faded away, he was neither too excited nor too sad, even when he saw Li Jianglin lying on the bed, listening to Zhu Kai’s cold words, he felt sympathy for Li Jianglin.

       He took a deep breath, Li Zhenruo gently leaned the top of her furry head against the glass window.

       At this moment, in that originally quiet room, Li Zhenruo suddenly heard Zhu Kai suddenly said a word for no reason. He said, “Have you ever regretted, touching me when I was a child?”

       Li Zhenruo’s whole cat suddenly froze.

       Then he heard Li Jianglin say, “I regret it. I haven’t stopped regretting it for so many years. Just go out and leave me alone.”

       Zhu Kai’s tone seemed indifferent, “I know, you treat me as my mother. I was like her back then, but unfortunately, not anymore, you must be disappointed.”

       After the heavy breathing, Li Jianglin dragged his voice and said, “I didn’t…”

       Zhu Kai said, “You love and hate me because I’m Zhu Yun’s son, but I’m not born to her and you, right?”

       This time Li Jianglin didn’t speak.

       “Haha,” Zhu Kai laughed loud for no reason, and the chair under him made a noise.

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t hold back his head to look and saw Zhu Kai stand up. He helped Li Jianglin pull the quilt, then sat beside the bed and patted his chest, “Go to sleep, you don’t have to feel uncomfortable when you fall asleep.”

       In the past, it was not that Li Zhenruo had no doubts about the relationship between Li Jianglin and Zhu Kai, mainly because until now he did not know who took Li Jianglin’s semen. At first, he suspected Yue Zijia, but later he denied the idea and began to doubt Zhu Kai. He always persuaded himself not to think of that aspect. After all, Li Jianglin still kept the image as a father in his heart, but now after listening to Zhu Kai’s words, He thought that some things might be different from what he imagined, but they might not be that far off.

       Li Zhenruo was so shocked that for a moment he forgot what he should do next, so he stayed on the window sill.

       Then he heard that Li Zhentai came back.

       When Li Zhentai came home, he must have come to visit Li Jianglin who was sick, so Zhu Kai stood up and took the initiative to go outside.

       He greeted Li Zhentai at the door of the room, and after Li Zhentai came in, he himself walked towards the kitchen to pour water to drink.

       Li Zhenruo secretly saw Li Zhentai closing the door, then walked to Li Jianglin’s side, picked up the tissue next to him, wiped Li Jianglin’s forehead, and whispered, “Dad.”

       Li Jianglin nodded weakly.

       Li Zhentai sat down beside the bed and said softly, “I went to have dinner with You Bo today for the third child.”

       Li Jianglin didn’t seem to want to speak, and after Li Zhentai paused for a while, he said, “The mess is going to be resolved quickly.”

       “Well,” Li Zhentai replied, “After all, this matter is that the third child offends others first. You Bo proposed a cooperation plan with Yunlin. I think we can consider it, and also show each other some sincerity, to resolve this conflict of the third child.”

       Li Jianglin was a little sleepy, “What plan? Don’t be careless.”

       Li Zhentai said, “It is an acquisition plan, and I will not be careless. I will give you a detailed plan when the time comes.”

       Li Jianglin was silent for a while, and said, “The main thing is that you have to pay attention.”

       Li Zhentai took Li Jianglin’s hand and said, “Got it.”

       He sat with Li Jianglin for a while longer before he stood up and left the room.

       Li Zhenruo had already recovered from the shock of hearing the conversation between Zhu Kai and Li Jianglin just now, and thought that if there was nothing fishy between Li Zhentai and You Bo, he would not be a cat! After Li Zhenzi offended You Bo, did they conspire together, or was it Li Zhentai who set everything up from beginning to end?

       What was Li Zhentai want to do for him to take the advantage of Li Zhenzi’s problem as a pretext and the money of Yunlin? Could it be that Li Zhentai felt that Yunlin was out of his hands, and while there was still a chance, he colluded with outsiders to maliciously transfer Yunlin’s funds?

       But why?

       Wait, Li Zhenruo suddenly thought, does Li Zhentai also know that he is not Li Jianglin’s son?

       Li Zhenruo raised one paw to cover his mouth, no longer caring about those messy thoughts, and jumped off the window sill.

       When he went back, he took a taxi, but he had no money or even a phone. He could only borrow a phone from the gatekeeper of the neighbourhood to call Li Zhenran and ask him to come down and pay.

       While waiting for Li Zhenran, Li Zhenruo considered whether to tell him about Li Jianglin and Zhu Kai.

       After much deliberation, he finally decided not to. Now Li Zhenran still had a thorn in his heart. If he were to known about the ambiguous relationship between Li Jianglin and Zhu Kai, he was afraid that the thorn will become a bone and couldn’t be taken out.

       Li Zhenran came out of the gate of the neighbourhood, paid the driver the fare, and then took his cat home.

       As they walked into the elevator, Li Zhenran suddenly leaned over to Li Zhenruo’s neck and smelled it, and said, “Why does it smell like a dog?”

       Li Zhenruo subconsciously raised his hand and touched his neck. He rubbed on Erhuang for a long time just now and was licked by Erhuang. He didn’t think that his body was really tainted with Erhuang’s smell.

       Li Zhenran frowned.

       Li Zhenruo said, “I was caught by Erhuang when I slipped in, and it ran away with my back in my neck.”

       Li Zhenran asked him, “Not seen by Zhu kai?”

       Li Zhenruo said quickly, “No.”

       Li Zhenran was not too happy, and disgustedly said, “Go back to take a bath.”

       Li Zhenruo had not enjoyed Li Zhenran’s help in bathing him for a long time, perhaps because he disliked that he was covered with Erhuang’s saliva, Li Zhenran took the shower head himself to help him rinse. He sat in the bathtub, lying comfortably on the edge of the bathtub with the towel on his head, steamed by the steaming steam, and he was casually in the cat form.

       The cat was too small, and Li Zhenruo slid towards the middle of the bathtub, but Li Zhenran reached out and scooped it up, turned over, and started to flush his stomach.

       When the water rushed to the lower body, Li Zhenruo felt itchy and began to struggle fiercely.

       After struggling for a long time, he rolled over and fell into the bathtub, gasping for breath.

       Li Zhenran felt that Li Zhenruo’s whole body was washed clean, he put down the shower and plugged the stopper, and started pouring water into the bathtub. Then he took off his clothes and stepped in and sat down.

       Li Zhenruo immediately turned into a young man with slender legs and feet and sat next to Li Zhenran.

       Soaking in the bathtub comfortably, Li Zhenran lowered his head on Li Zhenruo’s neck and could only smelled the scent of the shower gel. He touched Li Zhenruo’s smooth and tender skin with satisfaction and asked, “What did you see when you went back today?”

       Li Zhenruo put the towel on his chest with water, grabbed Li Zhenran’s hand and put it on his chest, and said, “Li Jianglin is sick.”

       Li Zhenran pressed her lips against Li Zhenruo’s shoulder and rubbed lightly, “Sick and confused?”

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t help but turn to look at him.

       Li Zhenran continued, “Otherwise, how can Li Zhentai be so bold?”

       Li Zhenruo said, “It’s a serious illness, but I really don’t know if he was just confused.” He didn’t think Li Jianglin would be confused so easily.

       Li Zhenran gently stroked his hair and cheeks.

       Li Zhenruo rubbed his palm obediently, “Go back and see him.” He felt sorry for Li Jianglin.

       Li Zhenran said, “No, I won’t go back now.”

       Li Zhenruo raised his head to look at him, he felt that Li Zhenran probably had a plan, and he had some guesses in his heart, but he didn’t know if it was all right, so he simply didn’t ask, turned over and straddled Li Zhenran’s lap, hugging him kissed his face.

       The temperature seemed to be rising.

       Li Zhenruo was short of breath and felt that Li Zhenran was stroking his waist with one hand. He was obviously a little emotional. He leaned into Li Zhenran’s ear and said, “Do you know where You Bo lives?”

       Li Zhenran’s movements suddenly stopped, and his voice was low, “Must you bring up that disgusting person at this time?”

       Li Zhenruo said in a low voice, “I want to go to his place to check the evidence of his collusion with Li Zhentai, and see if I can find some other leverage from him.”

       Li Zhenran heard the words and said, “He has done a lot of illegal business, and there must be a handle, but I don’t know if you can find it.”

       Li Zhenruo said, “How do you know you can’t find it if you don’t look for it?”

       Li Zhenran touched his face, “Don’t go, I will find someone else to find a way.”

       Li Zhenruo is now full of confidence in her transformation, “It’s the most convenient for me to go.”

       Li Zhenran just said, “Don’t fool around.”

       Li Zhenruo’s elbows propped on his shoulders, palms wiped back wet hair, “I know.”

       After saying that, he moved his waist and asked Li Zhenran, “Why aren’t you moving?”

       Li Zhenran leaned back and put his arms behind his head, and said casually, “I’m not interested in thinking about You Bo and Li Zhentai.”

       “Don’t do this,” Li Zhenruo coaxed him, “Come on.”

       Li Zhenran said, “Want it? Sit up and move by yourself.”
