The Daily Life Of Mei Furen Doting On Her Husband - Chapter 77

Before Liu Taizhen could respond, she felt something moving in her sleeve. She glanced down, pressed her sleeve, and then pointed at the two cats in Mei Zhuyu’s hands, their claws now tucked in. “These are the two cats I raised.”

It turned out that these were the two tabby cats he had seen in the Liu household, and neither was Wu Zhen. Mei Zhuyu let them go, and they jumped to the ground, circling Liu Taizhen’s feet and rubbing against her skirt.

Liu Taizhen felt the movement in her sleeve becoming more intense. She smirked and finally reached in to take it out.

Mei Zhuyu watched as she pulled out a small kitten from her sleeve, and for some reason, he couldn’t take his eyes off it. Without waiting for Liu Taizhen to speak, he suddenly took two steps forward and asked, “She is Wu Zhen, isn’t she?”

Liu Taizhen paused, then smiled faintly and handed the kitten to him. “Yes, it’s her. I forgot to tell you that Wu Zhen is different from ordinary natural monsters, and also different from a half-monster like me. She is quite special and cannot eat many things casually. The magic water you gave her before contained too much pure spiritual energy. Although it eliminated the plague in her body, it also caused her to become like this.”

Mei Zhuyu took the kitten, who squinted her eyes as if she were very sleepy. Hearing this, he showed a mixture of regret and pity as he gently checked to ensure the kitten was not suffering from any other discomfort.

Liu Taizhen had more to say, but seeing him so focused on the kitten, she swallowed her words. Instead, she picked up the two large cats at her feet and left Mei Zhuyu with a very meaningful message, “Mr. Mei, Wu Zhen was very naughty when she was young. She was disliked by everyone. Please take care of yourself.”

Mei Zhuyu didn’t quite understand what she meant by that, and before he could ask, she had already left. With no other choice, he carried the kitten home.

That night, Mei Zhuyu finally understood what Liu Taizhen had meant. Wu Zhen transformed from a kitten back into a human—but as a little girl of about seven years old.

In the middle of the night, Mei Zhuyu stood barefoot on the ground, looking at the little girl on the bed with a bewildered expression.

“Hey! Where did you come from, little thief? Why did you kidnap me here?” The little girl, about seven years old, stood on the bed with her hands on her hips, wrapped in a quilt, revealing two tender white arms. Although she was still young, her imposing manner was overwhelming, and her arrogance reached two meters high.

Mei Zhuyu had no idea what had happened. He had brought back Wu Zhen, who had turned into a kitten, from Liu Taizhen. He had been taking good care of her in the afternoon and had her sleep in his arms at night. Wu Zhen had been drowsy, only moving her paws from time to time. In the middle of the night, Mei Zhuyu suddenly felt something moving in his arms, and the kitten suddenly turned into a little girl.

The little girl had a lovely face, a miniature version of Wu Zhen. She rubbed her eyes in a daze and crawled out of the quilt, which scared Mei Zhuyu. Before he could figure out what was going on, the little girl frowned and glared at him, calling him a thief.

Mei Zhuyu was kicked off the bed by the little girl. He stood there, accepting the little girl’s contempt, as if he were being treated as a perverted hooligan.

Mei Zhuyu felt wronged. He realized that his wife, who was a few years older than him and who was independent-minded and capable, seemed to have reverted to the age of seven in both her mind and memory after she grew from a kitten to a little girl.

She didn’t remember who he was, nor that she was a Cat Lord  in the monster city. She just thought she was an ordinary little girl.

Mei Zhuyu tried to communicate with the shrunken lady, but the little girl was very fierce and kept talking nonsense, not believing him at all.

“Do you think I’m a three-year-old child? How can I get married when I’m only seven? Are you a bad guy who kidnaps children? I heard that you like to find pretty girls like me the most!”

Mei Zhuyu: “I am not…”

The little girl glanced at him and pulled the quilt tighter around her body. “You must have some weird habit. You don’t even let me wear clothes! And you even hold me to sleep! You bad guy!”

Mei Zhuyu: “I didn’t…”

The little girl had a round, pink face and a pair of big, black eyes that sparkled with a mischievous light. While she was talking to Mei Zhuyu, she carefully observed the place and slowly relaxed, because it didn’t look like a place where bad guys locked up children, and the man standing in front of her looked stupid—how could he be a bad guy?

Although little Wu Zhen didn’t remember what had happened, her memory only stayed on the day when her mother fell ill, but she felt strangely fond of the man in front of her and was not afraid of him at all. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have spoken to him so carelessly.

The little girl jumped off the bed holding the quilt and looked around the room. She pointed to the table and told Mei Zhuyu, “Turn on the light. I can’t see clearly.”

Mei Zhuyu turned on the light as instructed. His eyes followed the little girl who was looking around the room. She was dragging the quilt, which hung on the floor and was being dragged back and forth across the entire room.

Mei Zhuyu watched her for a long time, finally pressing his arm, which had been pinched red, and faced reality. The little girl didn’t seem to be scared, so he tried to get closer and said, “The ground is cold, you should go back to bed.”

Little Wu Zhen suddenly stopped. She ran to Mei Zhuyu and looked up at him.

Mei Zhuyu was inexplicably nervous. He held his breath and looked down at the serious-looking girl. “…What’s wrong?”

The little girl tilted her head, suddenly giggled, and pointed her finger at him. “Lower your head, squat down.”

Mei Zhuyu squatted down silently. He was so tall that even when he squatted, he could look at the little girl. The little girl looked serious, then suddenly covered Mei Zhuyu’s cheeks with her two small hands and shook his head left and right.

Mei Zhuyu seemed to see a look of disgust on the little girl’s face, as if saying, “This snack doesn’t look good and doesn’t taste good,” and suddenly fell silent.

“You really don’t remember?”

The little girl bounced back onto the couch, holding her chin and shaking her legs. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, but you’d better send me home as soon as possible. My mother is sick, and I need to go see her. And my father—if you don’t send me back, he’ll bring people to arrest you.”

After thinking for a while, the little girl added, “And my sister—don’t be fooled by her pretty face, she’s very fierce; you will definitely be afraid of her!”

“So, take me home!”

 Hearing her talk about her mother, Mei Zhuyu didn’t know what to do. He had heard that Wu Zhen’s mother died of illness when she was a child, and it seemed that she was around that age now. Seeing that he didn’t answer, the little girl pursed her lips, looked at the dark sky outside, and made a concession, “It’s dark now. How about this—you take me home tomorrow.”

Mei Zhuyu shook his head, “No, you can’t be seen by Duke Yu in your current state.”
