Chapter 38

As the cat in his arms transformed into a human, Han Luofeng froze. He felt a real, soft body in his arms, and his hands were placed on this person’s back.

The texture of the skin was soft and smooth.

Han Luofeng tensed up, even holding his breath. He instinctively stared ahead, not daring to make eye contact with the person in his arms. Yet, in his mind, he couldn’t help but recall the sight of the girl’s body he had seen in the jungle before.

He felt embarrassed, and not sure of what to do.

The body in his arms was small, only reaching up to his shoulder. When nestled in his arms, her head fit perfectly against his chest. He could feel her breath and, instinctively, he wanted to pull her even closer.

Compared to Han Luofeng’s flustered thoughts, Qing Liu didn’t overthink the situation.

Her mental strength was unstable, and in a moment of carelessness, she suddenly reverted to her human form! She froze for a second, then cursed under her breath. Realizing she was completely naked, she subconsciously wrapped her arms around Han Luofeng, trying to shield her body, and loudly exclaimed, “Don’t move!”

Han Luofeng’s body was stiff, and he stared straight ahead, swallowing hard. “I’m not moving.”

Qing Liu noticed he really wasn’t moving, and she finally sighed in relief.

This was so awkward—too awkward!

Qing Liu felt that her actions resembled something inappropriate, but she couldn’t help it!

She held on tightly to Han Luofeng as if blocking her front meant everything else would be fine.

Little did she know that if Han Luofeng lowered his head, he would clearly see her perky backside.

However, Han Luofeng was just as tense, so he dared not look down, maintaining a stiff, forward-facing position. He even raised his hands from her back, afraid to touch her.

But just as he raised his hands, he heard Qing Liu angrily say, “Put your hands back!”

Han Luofeng: “……”

He remained silent for a few seconds. “Are you sure?”

‘You want him to put his hands back on her back?’

Qing Liu had her reasons: “If you don’t put your hands here to block me, I’ll feel really insecure!”

Han Luofeng: “……”

Her reasoning made some sense, but something still felt off.

He silently placed his hands gently on Qing Liu’s back, offering her some support.

But there were only the two of them in the room. Whether or not he blocked her, no one could see.

It’s just that both Qing Liu and Han Luofeng were extremely nervous and awkward, with neither of them thinking clearly at the moment.

The two of them ended up hugging in this confusing manner for a few minutes. It wasn’t until Han Luofeng finally reacted and whispered, “Do you want to go put some clothes on?”

Qing Liu: “…..”

Right, she had clothes on her personal terminal. Why hadn’t she gone to get dressed instead of staying there, hugging Han Luofeng?

Qing Liu suddenly realized how stupid she had been!

She awkwardly said, “Then you should close your eyes.”

Han Luofeng nodded, but he had nothing to cover his eyes with. After thinking for a moment, he realized something else felt off: “Can you control your mental power now?”

Qing Liu had turned into a cat because her mental power was unstable. Did that mean her mental power was now stabilizing, and she could control it freely?

Qing Liu only realized it after his reminder. Indeed, her mental power seemed to have recovered a lot…

She felt quite foolish.

Her face flushed, and she quickly released her hold on Han Luofeng, then transformed back into a cat.

Han Luofeng felt the emptiness in his arms, and the next second, he saw the little cat hop out of his embrace, then leap straight off the windowsill.

Thinking they were on the second floor, Han Luofeng was startled and rushed forward, sticking his head out to look, but there was no sign of the cat.

He hurried down the stairs, ran outside into the garden, and searched through the lush greenery for two circles before spotting the white ball of fluff nestled in a cluster of white chrysanthemums, with only the tip of its tail visible.

Qing Liu felt incredibly embarrassed, considering how awkward the situation had just been.

She already knew Han Luofeng liked her, even though he hadn’t explicitly said it, and she had rejected him before. Now, being good friends and interacting this way, Qing Liu felt happy.

But after what had just happened, she couldn’t help feeling very shy!

Her mind was filled with the image of herself, naked, hugging Han Luofeng. He was wearing tight-fitting loungewear, his muscles firm. Even now, she could almost still feel the warmth from his body on her paws.

Her little cat’s heart raced, and she nestled in the grass, scratching at the soil with her front paws. The dirt she dug up piled into a tiny mound beside her.

Han Luofeng, coming over, couldn’t help but quietly laugh. Although the little cat was adorable, he had to admit, it almost looked like a dog!

He crouched down in front of her, lowered his voice, and said, “Are you hungry? I brought fresh sea fish for you.”

The cat’s tail, which had been swaying lazily, froze suddenly. Then, she immediately turned her head, her gem-like eyes darting around, as though she was too shy to meet Han Luofeng’s gaze.

Han Luofeng suppressed the smile in his eyes, looking at the little white cat. He added, “I also bought some beef. By the way, I heard cats like goat’s milk. I got you a bottle. Try it and let me know if you like it. If you do, I’ll order it regularly for you.”

The little white cat’s eyes grew brighter the more she listened, and her paws stretched out eagerly.

It wasn’t that she had no self-control, but honestly, after not eating breakfast, she was really hungry!

Han Luofeng saw the little cat’s paws, which were covered in dirt, stretch out, and immediately reached out to pick her up before she could react, gently saying, “Wash your paws before eating. Look, they’re all dirty.”

Saying this, he acted as if nothing unusual had happened, and just like before, he gently carried the little cat to the sink, lathered soap on her four paws, carefully cleaned them, and then dried them off.

The little cat’s paws were pink and small, so cute. When Han Luofeng was wiping her feet, she even kicked her paws a couple of times, as if showing him her “^[1]“JioJio” (脚脚) is a playful and affectionate term in Chinese, often used to refer to small, cute feet or paws, especially those of animals. The “JioJio dance” here … Continue readingJioJio” dance.

Han Luofeng, seeing her like this, looked up in surprise, and the little white cat awkwardly gazed up at the sky, grumbling, “Hurry up, I’m so hungry!”

Han Luofeng quickly took her to the dining table and began to serve her.

As he watched her eat, he softly asked, “Has your mental power recovered? Can you transform back into human form now?”

Actually, it had already recovered. Qing Liu could now freely control her transformation. But thinking about the awkward situation earlier, she couldn’t face Han Luofeng just yet.

So, she pretended to be a real cat—it made everything seem less awkward!

The little cat replied, “Not yet, still unstable.”

So, she would have to stay as a cat for a long, long time!

Han Luofeng frowned. Although he knew Qing Liu had healing abilities, he couldn’t help but worry about her. “After breakfast, I’ll take you to the hospital for a check-up.”

The little cat’s eyes widened, and she shook her head violently. “No, no, no!”

Han Luofeng: “……”

The little cat was still acting like a child, refusing to go to the hospital.

Qing Liu was very resistant, and Han Luofeng couldn’t force her to go, after all, they were still just ordinary friends at this point.

Perhaps he should hurry up and get Qing Liu to sign the contract.

Han Luofeng thought to himself. It would be better to act quickly, before things dragged on, and what if Qing Liu changed her mind later?

He had to seize the opportunity while he could.

So, after breakfast, Han Luofeng carefully put the little cat into the pocket of his casual jacket. In order to make her more comfortable, he had specifically chosen this jacket because its pockets were spacious and lined with soft fleece. The little cat should feel cozy inside.

He even placed a few pieces of beef jerky and some small fruits in the pocket for her to snack on during the trip.

This time, they were heading to Han Luofeng’s studio. There were two things on the agenda. One was to discuss the contract with the little cat, and the other was to meet with the production team of the “First Heartbeat” reality show to discuss the couple’s variety show.

As for Qing Liu’s contract with her former company, although it still had a few months before it expired, after the restaurant incident yesterday, Han Luofeng couldn’t waste any time. He had immediately used the power of the Han family to force Luo Cheng to terminate the contract.

Luo Cheng was a major shareholder, and Qing Liu’s contract termination had his seal on it, so it was effectively done.

Han Luofeng didn’t even need to step in personally—the lawyers from the Han family handled everything.

Han Luofeng’s studio was not big. After all, in Sky City, having a personal studio was already quite rare. His team consisted of only a few dozen people, as he wasn’t a typical celebrity and didn’t take on morning ads or anything. The studio staff were relatively relaxed.

When the team heard that the boss was going to sign the future “boss lady” into the company, they were already buzzing with excitement!

They had all seen the live stream of “Destined Match” and knew the true identity of the little cat. When she was bullied by Lilith, they shared the same hatred.

After all, who could bear to see such a cute little cat being bullied?

If the little cat had a team as responsible as theirs behind her, she would never have been bullied like this!

Now, the little cat was really coming to their studio, and they would truly become her team!

Of course, they had to fulfill the promises they made during the live stream!

They hoped the little cat would have some ambition and not end up lying flat like the boss, doing nothing!

Han Luofeng’s studio was a small, two-story apartment. It had a wooden structure with a small garden surrounding it. The second-floor rooftop was a café, and there was a small park nearby. The environment and view were both amazing.

The little cat poked her head out of Han Luofeng’s pocket and carefully observed the studio. She couldn’t help but marvel inside. Forget about being an artist here—if she were given the job of receptionist, she’d happily work there for ten years!

As Han Luofeng walked towards the studio entrance, he looked down at the little cat and, almost as if to show off, reached out and ruffled her head.

Meanwhile, staff members, who were sneakily watching from the windows and balcony, whispered excitedly:

“Ahhh, so soft, so white, so cute! I just want to pinch her!”

“What kind of luck does the boss have? He must’ve saved the universe in his past life!”

“I envy Sister Wei. As the only manager, the little cat will definitely be sticking with her.”

The group continued chatting, and the short-haired lady, known as Sister Wei, shook her head and said: “You guys are still too young.”

From her understanding of her boss, there was no way he would let anyone else handle his own wife. Such a good opportunity to bond with her, how could he possibly let someone else take it?

Don’t even think about it.
