Chapter 209
Chapter 209
The young girl's thoughts grew increasingly terrifying!
"If I'm discovered to have laid an egg, will I be taken away for research? Oh no!" Zhi Yao was absolutely petrified.
What's more, she was now a somewhat popular female celebrity! The thought of trending on social media for laying an egg made Zhi Yao feel suffocated!
That would be far worse than just social suicide!
The little girl, scared out of her wits, threw her arms around Pei Chiyao's waist and burrowed into his chest, whimpering, "Waaah! Pei Chiyao, what should we do? You'll protect me, won't you?"
Pei Chiyao looked at the girl's pitiful state and was rendered speechless.
But what could he do? He'd chosen this little fox, and he'd have to cherish her even if it meant getting down on his knees.
Pei Chiyao took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I will."
He raised his hand and gently stroked the girl's fluffy hair, surprised to find that it felt remarkably similar to Zhi Yao's fur when she was in fox form. He found himself becoming addicted to the sensation.
However, as he was stroking her hair, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something white next to Zhi Yao. He looked closer and...
How was that cat here again!?
Pei Chiyao's brow furrowed instantly, feeling as if Zhi Yao's embrace had somehow been tainted.
With a stern face, he pointed at the white cat sleeping soundly on the hospital bed and asked, "Where did she come from?"
Only then did Zhi Yao suddenly remember. Damn! She had forgotten to hide the cat.
"Well... it's a long story," the little girl said with an awkward smile, trying to reach out to wake Yan Mu up.
But before her hand could touch Yan Mu, Pei Chiyao grabbed her wrist. In the next second, the world spun around Zhi Yao, and she found herself swept up into Pei Chiyao's arms.
"You dare to touch him?!" Pei Chiyao's brow furrowed even deeper, his expression making Zhi Yao feel as if she hadn't been about to touch a cat, but another man.
Damn! Why did this suddenly feel like a scene of infidelity?!
This was absolutely ridiculous!
"I won't touch, I won't touch!" she hurriedly withdrew her hand, like a guilty cheater admitting her wrongdoing, and quickly said, "She doesn't feel as nice to touch as you do!"
Ha! That was complete nonsense. How could a person possibly feel better to touch than a cat?
But amazingly, Pei Chiyao believed her! He actually believed her!
Even jealous of a cat.
But... the thought that this was Pei Chiyao's way of showing how much he cared for her made Zhi Yao's heart melt with sweetness.
Pei Chiyao could sense Zhi Yao's emotions just as clearly. Amused, he pressed the little girl against the wall and leaned down to capture her lips in a kiss.
The kiss was passionate and intense, making Zhi Yao tremble.
"Pei..." Zhi Yao opened her mouth to speak, as she thought she heard footsteps, but as soon as she uttered the first syllable, Pei Chiyao pressed his lips to hers again, silencing her.
"Mmph..."
The footsteps were getting closer. Zhi Yao raised her hands, desperately pushing against Pei Chiyao's shoulders, trying to push him away. But her strength was far too little; against Pei Chiyao, it was like an ant trying to topple a tree.
Zhi Yao was so anxious she was on the verge of tears, especially because... because she felt Pei Chiyao's hand starting to slip under her clothes.
And those footsteps were getting closer and closer...
If someone were to see her and Pei Chiyao like this in the bathroom... Zhi Yao felt she'd never be able to show her face in public again.
"Such a shy little fox," the man's low, husky chuckle sounded in Zhi Yao's ear. The little girl had completely melted in his arms, unable to utter a single word.
She could only glare angrily at Pei Chiyao, but unfortunately, he didn't care in the slightest.
Ling Si's voice sounded from outside the door. "Strange, where is everyone? Are they in the bathroom?"
"Yao Yao? Pei Chiyao?"
But at the moment, neither of them had any time to respond to him.
Then, Ling Si started walking towards the bathroom.
One step, two steps, three steps, four steps...
The man's hands were still roaming mischievously over Zhi Yao's body, making her even more flustered. Then... she heard the sound of the doorknob turning.
Oh no, oh no, how will she ever face anyone again!
Zhi Yao quickly covered her face with her hands, attempting to hide from the situation like an ostrich burying its head in the sand.
If... if Ling Si were to see this, she'd never be able to show her face in public again, oh the horror!
She desperately tried to burrow deeper into Pei Chiyao's embrace, hoping to use his tall frame to shield herself from view...
