Chapter 131: A Fruitful Return (1/2)

After Shao Silin parked the car, Shen Cheng got out while holding Little Qi. She turned to look at the soft lights of the Light Spot Cat Café’s first and second floors, and her chest warmed with nostalgia, memories flooding her heart.

Glancing slightly to the side, she noticed that Little Qi was also staring intently at the Cat Café in front of them. Shen Cheng smiled and said to Little Qi, “Little Qi, we’re home.”

“…Home…” Little Qi muttered after a moment of daze, softly repeating the word.

“Yes, it’s home.”

“Senior!”

“Master nya!”

At that moment, the door of the Cat Café opened, and two beautiful figures dashed out, running straight toward Shen Cheng and finally throwing themselves into her arms.

Feeling the warmth in her embrace, Shen Cheng’s heart fluttered slightly. Although it had only been seven days since she left, it felt like a lifetime.

With one arm around each of the girls, Shen Cheng softly said, “Huihui, Cheese, I’m back. It must have been hard on you these past days.”

“Senior, welcome home,” Lin Yuhui lifted her head slowly from Shen Cheng’s embrace, gazing at her with a smile.

“Master, Cheese missed you so much nya…” Cheese continued rubbing against Shen Cheng’s chest, her grey-blue cat ears twitching occasionally, her face adorned with a mischievous smile that Shen Cheng was all too familiar with.

Shen Cheng gently rubbed Cheese’s head and said with a faint smile, “I missed you too, Cheese.”

“Hehe…”

Sandwiched between them, Little Qi sensed the warm atmosphere. Her eyes flickered momentarily, but soon returned to their usual deadpan state.

After a brief moment of intimacy, the two girls stepped back slightly. At that moment, Lin Yuhui noticed Little Qi in Shen Cheng’s arms and asked, “Senior, who is this child?”

“She’s Little Qi, a mouse demi-human.” Shen Cheng explained as she patted Little Qi’s small head, “She comes from the same place as Sugar.”

“Oh…” Upon hearing about Little Qi’s background, Lin Yuhui looked at her with pity before gently stroking Little Qi’s hair and softly saying, “Little Qi, welcome. From now on, treat this place as your home.”

Little Qi looked at Lin Yuhui in confusion for a moment. It was unclear whether she understood, but she stiffly nodded like a puppet.

As Lin Yuhui gazed at the mouse ears on Little Qi’s head, a thought suddenly struck her. Her face slightly tensed as she remembered an important issue.

Come to think of it, Little Qi is a mouse demi-human, while the house is full of cat demi-humans. Will she get bullied?

Turning her head, she saw Cheese smiling as she looked at Little Qi and said, “Hello, I’m Cheese nya!”

Little Qi stared expressionlessly at Cheese, her lips parting slightly before she finally uttered two words, “Little Qi…”

Seeing this, Cheese tilted her head and looked at Shen Cheng, “Master, she’s just like Sugar when she first arrived nya.”

“She’ll get better with time.”

At that moment, Lingxue, Ximing, and the others also got out of the car. After the pleasantries between Shen Cheng and the others were over, Lin Yuhui and Cheese turned their attention to them. Lingxue, feeling nervous, immediately bowed and said, “Hello! I am Lingxue, Shen Cheng’s Information Liaison Officer. I’ll be imposing on you for the next few days!”

Ximing also smiled and bowed slowly, “Hello, I’m Ximing, Shen Cheng’s Information Liaison Officer. I’ll be in your care for a while.”

“So, you’re Ximing and Lingxue. Senior has mentioned you before. Thank you for taking care of him outside,” Lin Yuhui blinked, smiling as she nodded at the two. She then cast a sideways glance at Shen Cheng but said nothing more.

*Sigh*, Senior has brought another group of demi-humans home. I bet these two will fall into his clutches before long…
