Chapter 100: Chapter 100: Yan Luoxi’s Heart is in Turmoil

"Huh?"

’Is that... that jerk?’

Yan Luoxi was sitting in her car. From a distance, she saw Gu Yizhou bent over, searching for something in the residential complex’s flowerbeds.

’He didn’t go to work, did he? Is he looking for me at home...?’

As the car passed by Gu Yizhou, Yan Luoxi saw that he was already drenched in sweat, his brow furrowed with worry.

"Where did that little rascal Xiaobai run off to?"

Gu Yizhou wiped the sweat from his temples, muttering to himself in frustration.

Yan Luoxi’s car window was open, and she happened to hear what Gu Yizhou said.

"This..."

Her heart couldn’t help but clench.

’I think I made a mistake...’

’It makes sense!’

’I just ran off yesterday and was gone the whole night.’

’He must have been worried sick...’

Seeing Gu Yizhou drenched in sweat and covered in dirt from looking for her, Yan Luoxi suddenly felt an inexplicable ache in her heart.

’Could it be... I’ve actually fallen for this damn guy?’

she murmured to herself.

At that moment, her heart was in turmoil...

Soon, the car entered the underground parking garage.

The two of them passed each other just like that.

"Phew..."

Gu Yizhou straightened up and let out a long breath.

What he didn’t know was that he had just passed by the very Xiaobai he was looking for...

"Sigh~"

"I’ll go back, get a drink of water and something to eat, then go talk to property management!"

Gu Yizhou said with a sense of resignation.

After speaking, he turned and walked toward his building.

Meanwhile, Yan Luoxi had already parked her car and was heading upstairs.

Right now, her feelings were a complicated mess.

She hadn’t expected Gu Yizhou to keep looking for her.

She could imagine how he must have felt when he came back at noon and found her gone. He must have been incredibly worried.

Originally, Yan Luoxi just wanted to make Gu Yizhou worry a little, but she hadn’t expected that seeing him in this state would make her own heart ache.

Sigh~

’I think I’ve really fallen for that damn guy, Gu Yizhou...’

’But...’

’That jerk Gu Yizhou only thinks of me as a cat!’

Ugh!

’This is so frustrating!’

Soon, Yan Luoxi reached the third floor.

As she passed Gu Yizhou’s apartment, she glanced at his door with a complicated expression.

Suddenly!

A wave of dizziness washed over her.

’Time’s up...’

She snapped back to her senses, hurried to the door of 306, and quickly punched in the code before slipping inside.

The instant Yan Luoxi closed the door.

POOF~

A puff of white smoke appeared out of thin air, rising up...

The white smoke swirled...

Before Yan Luoxi was ready, she had changed back into her Xiaobai cat form!

"Meow~"

Yan Luoxi let out a cry.

She looked down at her own cat paws.

Sigh~

’Even though I knew I would change back.’

’It still feels so unsatisfying!’

Yan Luoxi took advantage of the fact that Gu Yizhou wasn’t back up yet.

She stealthily opened her apartment door and slipped through the crack into Gu Yizhou’s place next door.

She was practically a pro at this!

Yan Luoxi glanced around to confirm Gu Yizhou wasn’t back yet and breathed a sigh of relief.

She hopped onto the sofa, found a comfortable position, and lay down.

But for some reason, the pose looked a little seductive.

She licked her little pink paws and sprawled lazily on the sofa.

’When that jerk comes back and sees me, I wonder what his expression will be like?’

’He’ll definitely be shocked, right?’

’Yup!’

’His reaction will definitely be priceless!’

Yan Luoxi thought the scene would be hilarious.

’Wait a minute...’

’He wouldn’t get mad and try to hit me, would he?’

’Probably not, right?’

’I’m back now, so he wouldn’t go that far, right?’

’But what if he does hit me?’

’Hmph!’

’If he hits me, I’ll... I’ll bite him to death and scratch up his face.’

’Let’s see him go around flirting with other women then!’

Yan Luoxi thought with a very devious heart!

As she thought this, she extended one of her little pink paws, looked at it, and bared her fangs, trying to look ferocious!

Just then, a sound came from the front door.

KLICK...

Gu Yizhou opened his front door.

"Sigh~"

"Xiaobai, I did my best."

"Where on earth did you run off to?"

He sighed softly, muttering to himself as he walked inside.

Yan Luoxi lifted her head and glanced toward the door.

’It really is that damn guy, he’s back.’

"Meow~!"

Seeing his dejected look, Yan Luoxi couldn’t help but meow at him.

"Huh???"

Gu Yizhou was confused. "Did I just hear a cat meow?"

’Don’t tell me I’m starting to hear things?’

But when Gu Yizhou looked up, he froze on the spot.

This...

’Am I not only hearing things, but seeing things too?’

Gu Yizhou couldn’t quite believe it!

He rubbed his eyes and looked toward the sofa again.

Huh?

’Still there?’

’It’s actually real?!!’

Gu Yizhou was stunned!

"Mrow~"

Seeing Gu Yizhou’s reaction, Yan Luoxi was gloating inwardly!

She couldn’t help but let out another cry.

Gu Yizhou rushed to the sofa and scooped her up.

Caught off guard, Yan Luoxi suddenly realized she’d been ambushed by this damn guy!

"Xiaobai, Xiaobai, it’s really you!"

"Where did you run off to yesterday?!"

Gu Yizhou’s face was flushed with excitement as he exclaimed, "You worried me to death!"

Then he hugged Xiaobai tightly.

"Meeow~"

Yan Luoxi cried out, her four paws flailing in the air.

She looked as if she were saying: ’Damn guy, let me go!’

’You’re going to suffocate me!!’

Gu Yizhou heard Xiaobai’s struggling cries from his arms.

Only then did he snap out of it.

He gently loosened his grip.

Yan Luoxi leaped back onto the sofa and shot Gu Yizhou a look of disdain.

’Phew...’

’That damn guy... If he hadn’t let go, I would’ve puked up everything I ate today!’

Yan Luoxi couldn’t help but complain in her head.

"Uh..."

"Xiaobai, sorry about that!"

"Got carried away, got carried away, haha..."

Gu Yizhou said, awkwardly scratching the back of his head.

Right now, Yan Luoxi just wanted to give this damn guy a massive eye-roll!

Too bad she couldn’t do it right now!

Yan Luoxi angrily turned her little head away, wanting nothing to do with this jerk.

Gu Yizhou calmed himself down and then sat.

This time, ignoring Yan Luoxi’s struggles, he plopped her directly onto his lap!

"Meow~"

Yan Luoxi couldn’t help but protest a couple of times.

But!

Protest denied!

"Xiaobai, no more sneaking off, you hear me!"

"When I came back yesterday afternoon and didn’t see you, I thought you’d staged a prison break by jumping off the building and fell to your death!"

"Don’t you ever sneak out like that again, you hear?!"

Gu Yizhou said to Yan Luoxi, his face full of helplessness.

His tone was completely helpless, but there was no trace of blame in it.

What could he do?

The feeling of getting something back after losing it was just too intense!

But!

Seriously, the last time was one thing, but this time he was truly worried!

For a moment there, he had already mentally prepared himself for Xiaobai never coming back...
