Taoist Master and the Cat - Chapter 169

When Xie Jingyuan rode his bicycle out of the gate, he could still hear the hustle and bustle of the playground in the distance. If he could distinguish carefully, there was Gu Jialing’s loud and cheerful singing.

Xie Jingyuan smiled helplessly.

Sometimes he hoped that the personalities of Gu Jialing and Xu Shou could be neutralized, one was too lively and the other was too silent.

Xie Jingyuan didn’t mind whether he had friends or not, but he hoped that Xu Shou could make more friends and pursue a life that belonged to him instead of treating him as his master all the time.

However, if Xu Shou liked following him, he would not force him to leave.

Su Miaomiao also thought of Xu Shou, “Where’s his tail?”

Xie Jingyuan: “He put it in his bag.”

Su Miaomiao: “I thought he would throw it into  the trash can.”

Xie Jingyuan didn’t tell Su Miaomiao, but he could tell that Xu Shou also liked that dog tail very much, but his pride didn’t allow him to wear it to show off like her.

Su Miaomiao said, giggling, “It’s good to keep it, you can use it as a feather duster to clean off the dust.”

Xie Jingyuan: “Don’t always provoke him.”

Su Miaomiao hummed, “Look, I just said a few words casually, you got so partial to him again.”

Xie Jingyuan: “…”

The bicycle drove into the lakeside community.

When going upstairs, Xie Jingyuan pinched Su Miaomiao’s bag, but he didn’t pay attention to it just now, but then he felt that the things inside didn’t look like books.

Su Miaomiao, seeing that, grabbed the bag and explained, “It’s my cat tail!”

Xie Jingyuan: “…”

He wouldn’t snatch her tail.

Walking to the door of 802, Su Miaomiao took out the key, and said to Xie Jingyuan, “My green plants need to be watered, you help me.”

Xie Jingyuan didn’t think too much, and followed her into 802.

Turning on the light in the living room, Su Miaomiao casually put the mask on the porch cabinet, then went to the bedroom with her bag in her arms, and told Xie Jingyuan not to leave after watering the plants, then she slammed the bedroom door and locked it.

Xie Jingyuan looked at the bedroom door strangely.

Did she just lock it?

She had never been private in front of him. If she hadn’t been reminded repeatedly since she was a child, Su Miaomiao would have dared to change clothes in front of him.

He first went to water a few pots of green plants.

After a few minutes, Su Miaomiao called him into the bedroom.

Xie Jingyuan put away the watering tool and walked over.

The door was ajar, and there was a light inside. After making sure that Su Miaomiao was well dressed and standing in front of the desk, Xie Jingyuan pushed the door open and entered.

“Zhao Lu made a video for me that I’ll show to you.”

Su Miaomiao set up the chair and signaled for Xie Jingyuan to sit down quickly. The laptop screen on the table was already turned on, and there was a video file.

Zhao Lu…

At that moment, some scenes that might not be suitable for him appeared in his mind.

“What video?” Xie Jingyuan’s face turned cold when he spoke.

If Zhao Lu secretly took a video of Su Miaomiao that shouldn’t be taken, he would stop Su Miaomiao from continuing to communicate with her.

She shouldn’t be friends with people who didn’t respect her privacy.

Su Miaomiao thought he was dawdling, so she pulled him onto the chair impatiently, “See for yourself.”

The roommates said that the video may make the Taoist master’s heart move more than the gift.

After Xie Jingyuan sat down, Su Miaomiao opened the file with a smile and played it in full screen.

The part in front of the screen was a dark background, which seemed to be specially reserved for the preparation time of the viewers.

Xie Jingyuan saw his face reflected on the screen, which looked very cold.

The next second, soft background music sounded, and the image finally appeared.

He saw Su Miaomiao sitting on the bed in the dormitory. She had an obedient and quiet face, and became even more obedient as she knitted.

The rhythm of the music was gentle, and Su Miaomiao on the screen also had changes in movements.

Sometimes she knitted very seriously, sometimes she fell asleep while knitting, sometimes she looked up at her roommates, and seemed to be aroused by their words and deeds, sometimes she was aroused by the sunlight coming in from the window. She then moved her eyes and turned to the bed.

Xie Jingyuan kept looking at her face until the scarf in her hand had reached a certain length, then he realized that she was knitting a scarf.

The background was constantly changing, sometimes it was sunny, and sometimes it was dark outside the window.

And Xie Jingyuan’s gaze was always fixed on Su Miaomiao’s body, or her face, or her hands.

When the scarf was finished, Su Miaomiao disappeared, and the scene was frozen on the snow-white scarf.

At that moment, a white cloth fell around him, wrapping around his neck softly.

Xie Jingyuan lowered his eyes and saw the scarf in the video.

It was snow white and soft, like the white cat fur she had in her previous life.

The warm, sunny aura was something she had had in her two lifetimes.

The background sound of the video was still going on:

“Darling, don’t be afraid. I have loved you for a thousand years.”

When Xie Jingyuan was watching the video, Su Miaomiao was sitting on the edge of the bed behind him, taking out the scarf hidden in advance from under the quilt with her backhand.

When the video stopped on the scarf, Su Miaomiao also stood up quietly, lowered the scarf from above, and hung it gently on Xie Jingyuan’s shoulders.

With her arms around his neck, Su Miaomiao said with her head tilted, “Surprise!”

Xie Jingyuan raised his eyes and met her clear and bright eyes with joy and anticipation.

It turned out that sincerity could be as hot as fire, and it was so hot that it was difficult for him to fight it after thirty-four years of practice in two lives.

“Did you always stay in the dormitory just to knit the scarf?”

Su Miaomiao: “Yes, you didn’t believe that I like you, so I just wanted to do something to make you believe it.”
