Chapter 15: Sometimes It Felt Like I Was a Father… (2/2)

“Okay, nya!” Cheese wiped the corner of her eye with her hand, her face brightened with a smile, and she ran downstairs.

Shen Cheng scooped a small spoonful of brown sugar water, tasted it, nodded in satisfaction, and after filling a bowl, slowly walked back to the bedroom where the two cats were.

At that moment, Sugar was lying on her side, soft and fluffy, lost in thought. She hadn’t slept and, upon hearing the noise, drowsily sat up: “Master…”

Seeing Sugar barely open her eyes, Shen Cheng chuckled helplessly, sat by the bed, and said, “Drink some brown sugar water first, then go back to sleep.”

“Ah—” Sugar wobbled left and right, opening her mouth dazedly, waiting to be fed.

Shaking his head, Shen Cheng scooped a spoonful of brown sugar water and fed it into Sugar’s slightly open mouth.

“Ugh!” As soon as the spoon was withdrawn, Sugar’s eyes suddenly shot open, and her previously drooping ears perked up, startling Shen Cheng, who nearly dropped the bowl.

Could the soup I made have a special effect on Cat Girls?

The next moment, a layer of mist formed over Sugar’s emerald eyes, and she whimpered softly, “Master, it’s hot…”

“…” Shen Cheng silently stared at the bowl, from which only a small amount of steam rose. He grinned awkwardly. Was this… a cat’s sensitive tongue?

With a sigh, Shen Cheng set the bowl aside to let it cool. Just then, Cheese came upstairs carrying two plates of cake. Shen Cheng fed Sugar some cake instead.

After finishing breakfast and tucking Sugar back into bed, Shen Cheng and Cheese quietly sat by the bedside.

When someone wakes from sleep to find themselves in an extremely silent or dark environment, they can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of abandonment by the entire world.

And for patients, their psychological endurance is often weaker. Even those asleep need the presence of loved ones, or their mental deterioration might directly impact their physical condition.

Because of this, despite the overwhelming drowsiness, Shen Cheng chose not to take a nap and instead stayed by Sugar’s side.

A few minutes later, the drowsy Cheese unconsciously leaned her head on Shen Cheng’s shoulder, her eyes slightly glazed over.

“Are you sleepy?” Shen Cheng asked.

“It’s fine, nya…” Cheese snuggled her little head against Shen Cheng’s shoulder, as if trying to sit up straight, but she failed, her eyes growing even more unfocused.

Master smells so nice, nya…

“If you’re tired, go sleep in my room. I’ll take care of things here.”

Seeing Cheese still reluctant to leave, Shen Cheng reached out and stroked her hair gently, whispering, “Be good. If you don’t rest properly, it will affect your work tomorrow.”

“Okay, nya…” Hearing Shen Cheng’s words, Cheese unwillingly nodded, pouting slightly as she glanced at Sugar. With great effort, she stood up, her ears drooping as she wobbled out of the room.

After a while, Shen Cheng picked up the bowl he had placed by the bedside. Seeing that it had almost cooled down, he ran his hand through Sugar’s soft hair: “Sugar, wake up and drink the brown sugar water. You can sleep again after.”

“Mmm…” Sugar mumbled, snuggling deeper into the blanket, continuing her slumber.

Shen Cheng: “…”

At this moment, Shen Cheng felt like a father taking care of his daughter. With a wry smile, he pinched Sugar’s soft, delicate cheek: “Get up and drink the brown sugar water, or it’ll get cold.”

“Wahh…” Sugar let out a soft beast-like whimper, her fish-like eyes staring blankly at Shen Cheng for a moment, and then—

“Ah—”

Why are you opening your mouth while lying on your side?! If I feed you like this, you’ll choke, you silly girl!
