Taoist Master and the Cat - Chapter 54

Xie Jingyuan saw that Su Miaomiao might fall asleep at any time, thought for a while, and said to Xu Shou and Gu Jialing, “Go to the cafeteria and bring two lunch boxes back to the classroom.”

Gu Jialing tentatively asked, “Will you carry her back to the classroom?”

Xie Jingyuan didn’t answer, and at the same time, he didn’t avoid Su Miaomiao who leaned toward his shoulder.

Gu Jialing suddenly thought of the old lady next door to the villa in the town. The old lady liked cats, and she often hugged her three cats at home like grandchildren.

Humans were such a strange species, they always had a soft spot for cats and dogs, especially cats.

It seemed that the Taoist master also failed to escape that human instinct.

Gu Jialing regretted it and felt it was unfair. Why could cats and dogs be loved by humans, but birds could only be kept in small cages?

With such complicated emotions, Gu Jialing ignored Xu Shou and walked forward alone.

When Xu Shou wanted to say something, Xie Jingyuan spoke first, “Just buy what she ate last time, and any vegetables for me.”

Xu Shou had no choice but to leave with the order.

Gu Jialing walked quickly, and Xu Shou didn’t deliberately chase him. The two figures, the strong and the thin, blended in with the other students, but were clearly separated.

Xie Jingyuan stood where he was and waited for everyone on the playground to leave before he carried Su Miaomiao on his back.

The senior teaching building was the closest to the playground. Even if the second and third grades were done, they would go to the cafeteria opposite at the time, and would not go there.

The sun was shining on the canopy of the tree, Xie Jingyuan carried Su Miaomiao on his back, passed one shade after another, and came to the teaching building.

He looked at Su Miaomiao who was lying on his shoulder.

She was already fast asleep, her breathing was light and shallow, her body smelled of sweat.

Xie Jingyuan had been a human being for two lifetimes, he could feel the aura fluctuations aroused by the demons when they striked, but he couldn’t smell the demons smell from them.

The cat and dog always disliked each other, but Xie Jingyuan didn’t even feel it.

Class 9’s classroom was empty. Xie Jingyuan pushed the door open and closed it, came to the seat with Su Miaomiao on his back, and let her lie down.

Taking off the camouflage jacket to cover her head, to ensure that even if someone passed by outside, they would not be able to tell whether she was a boy or a girl, Xie Jingyuan went to the shared bathroom on the same floor to clean, and then returned to Class 9 as quickly as possible.

Su Miaomiao still maintained the sleeping position, and didn’t even move the coat he put on.

Xie Jingyuan sat beside her and took out a book.

Xu Shou came back faster than he expected, and bought a total of three lunch boxes, including his own.

Almost as soon as Xu Shougang put down the lunch box, Su Miaomiao woke up. Ten minutes of sleep was enough for her to recover from the continuous high-intensity training all morning.

“Go wash your face first,” Xie Jingyuan held down the bag containing the lunch and said to the two of them.

Su Miaomiao looked at her hands. It was a pity, if she was still a cat, she would just lick her paws and wash her face.

Xie Jingyuan moved away from his seat to give her way. Su Miaomiao stood up helplessly, when Xu Shou had already walked out of the classroom.

Not to be outdone, Su Miaomiao chased after him. How could that speed seem like she was really tired?

In the corridor outside, Xu Shou watched Su Miaomiao running past him like a wind, and ran back after a while, and the moment she passed by him, she suddenly flicked a hand of water at him.

When Xu Shou turned around abruptly, Su Miaomiao jumped onto the next window sill.

Xu Shou: “…”

He was more sensible than a cat, and had spent more time dealing with people. He knew how to hide his strength shortly after he was born again

But if Su Miaomiao’s running and jumping was seen by her classmates, he didn’t know what they would think.

“Come down,” Xu Shou said coldly.

Su Miaomiao looked at him vigilantly, “Then don’t hit me.”

She knew that Xu Shou was not easy to mess with, but she couldn’t help but want to tease him. For example, when she was in Qingxu, every time she saw the big black dog sleeping, Su Miaomiao wanted to play with his tail.

Xu Shou bit the cat’s head, but he couldn’t do anything to the girly Su Miaomiao.

Having lived for more than two hundred years, he had seen men beating women quite often, both in his previous and present lives.

Looking at Su Miaomiao with a cold face, Xu Shou continued to walk forward.

Su Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief, and nimbly jumped to the ground.

When she returned to Class 9, Xie Jingyuan had already distributed the three lunch boxes.

“Thank you, Taoist Master,” Su Miaomiao took a deep breath of the fish fragrance, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

Xie Jingyuan wanted to wait for Xu Shou, so his eyes casually fell to Su Miaomiao’s side. The bangs on her forehead were still wet, sticking to her fair forehead.

Xie Jingyuan looked away in time.

Xu Shou was back.

Su Miaomiao glanced at him secretly, worried that he would sue her to Xie Jingyuan.

Xu Shou was not so talkative.

“Did you see Gu Jialing?” Xie Jingyuan asked while eating.

Xu Shou: “Yes, he sat with two girls.”

Su Miaomiao: “Is it Feng Xiaoyu and the others?”

Xu Shou: “No, I don’t know.”

Xie Jingyuan silently picked up his own vegetables.

The three of them ate quickly. When the first wave of students returned to the classroom, they had already put all the lunch boxes in the trash can over the bathroom. The windows were opened, and the wind took away the aroma of the food.

There was an hour and a half lunch break at noon, so Su Miaomiao continued to sleep on the table.

Gu Jialing came back almost in the last wave, holding a box of ice cream in his hand, eating while walking, enjoying himself very much.

Xie Jingyuan looked at Su Miaomiao, then reminded him to eat outside.
