Chapter 180: Meow

Scarlett enjoyed the massage with her eyes closed, but her groans made Andrew’s thoughts increasingly chaotic.

After more than ten minutes, Andrew finally withdrew his hands.

Scarlett, realizing that he had stopped, immediately asked, “Why did you stop?”

“I’m a little tired, Scar Mama. Let me rest for a bit.”

“Fine.”

Scarlett sighed in agreement, then added, “But your stamina is too poor. You couldn’t even last more than ten minutes.”

“Mm…”

Andrew didn’t know how to explain himself. He felt that no matter how he explained it, his words would sound strange.

In reality, his hands were just a little sore; he wasn’t particularly tired. It was simply that continuing the massage while listening to Scarlett’s groans was making the situation increasingly awkward.

After resting and calming down for a while, Andrew prepared to start again.

“I’ve rested, Scar Mama. Do you still want to continue the massage?”

“…”

Andrew asked but received no response.

He peeked over and saw that Scarlett was already lying on the bed with her eyes closed, having fallen asleep.

“It seems Scarlett is really tired. She can even fall asleep like this.”

Since Scarlett was asleep, Andrew didn’t disturb her any further. He got up and prepared to cover her with the blanket.

As he picked up the blanket, Andrew’s gaze suddenly lingered on Scarlett’s pert backside.

Even though it was covered by the thick pajama material, it still looked quite shapely.

“Stop thinking nonsense.”

Andrew shook his head, clearing the chaotic thoughts from his mind, and then covered Scarlett with the blanket.

Before leaving the bedroom, Andrew took another look at Scarlett as she slept.

Her cheeks were rosy, her long, beautiful eyelashes rested against her cheeks, and her delicate pink lips were slightly parted, making her look very cute.

After staring for a moment, Andrew couldn’t resist leaning down and kissing Scarlett’s little mouth before turning toward the bedroom door.

“Hehe, sneaking a little kiss shouldn’t be a problem.”

Andrew didn’t know why, but the feeling of sneaking a kiss made him particularly excited.

Perhaps this was the same feeling Scarlett had when she secretly kissed him before.

Thinking this, Andrew gently closed the door.

With a soft click, the bedroom door shut completely. Meanwhile, Scarlett, who was sound asleep under the covers, had the corners of her mouth slightly curved upward.

As soon as Andrew returned to the living room, a ball of fur suddenly flew past his face.

The next moment, Cecilia darted out and rushed straight toward the fur ball.

Then came a bang, and Cecilia sent the trash can flying.

“Ah! You stupid cat! What are you trying to do?”

Andrew immediately grabbed Cecilia, annoyed.

The captured Cecilia looked defiant, yowling and struggling desperately.

“Meow!!!”

Andrew lost his grip, and Cecilia immediately escaped. Then, a man and a cat stood a few meters apart, staring at each other seriously as if preparing for a fight to the death.

“Damn cat, get back here!”

“Meow!!!”

After a fierce battle, Andrew ultimately won by a narrow margin, subdued Cecilia, and locked him directly in the cage.

“Damn it! Other people’s cats are like dead pigs, barely moving at all, but you run around everywhere as if you’ve eaten shit every day.”

Andrew grumbled as he went to wash his hands and prepare lunch.

However, Cecilia, who was inside the cage, still refused to submit, even though he no longer had the energy to cause trouble.

“Meow!!!”

While Andrew was making lunch, Cecilia continued letting out occasional howls.

Andrew couldn’t be bothered with the foolish cat and focused on preparing the meal.

Just as Cecilia was about to continue howling in an attempt to win back his freedom, the voice of the ‘God of Death’ came from the adjacent bedroom.

“Keep making noise, and you’ll be eating cat meat for lunch today.”

“!!!”

Instantly, Cecilia was so terrified that all his fur stood on end. He hid in the cage, trembling, and didn’t make another sound.

Andrew, who was currently in the kitchen, sighed. “Alas, the stupid cat brought this upon himself. Scarlett will have something to say to him when she wakes up later.”

After bustling around for a while and finishing lunch, Andrew went to wake up Scarlett.

Scarlett emerged from the bedroom looking quite displeased. When she saw Cecilia crouched inside the cage, she glared fiercely at him, making him shrink into a ball.

“Scar Mama, let’s eat lunch first. We can deal with this cat later.”

“Mm.”

Scarlett picked up her chopsticks somewhat tiredly. After taking a bite, she asked Andrew, “Where is your sister? Aren’t you going to call her for lunch?”

“She’s doing experiments at school. She doesn’t have the weekend off, so I didn’t call her.”

“Oh.”

Scarlett responded with a simple “Oh” and continued looking down at her food.

Looking at her expression, Andrew couldn’t help but ask, “Scar Mama, what’s wrong? Why do you seem so unhappy?”

“That stupid cat’s howling woke me up. I didn’t get enough sleep.”

Scarlett’s tone was cold, and anyone could tell she was in a bad mood just by hearing her.

After learning the reason, Andrew also glared at Cecilia inside the cage. “See? Now you don’t get any lunch.”

“Meow—”

(A sound of apology.)

The two continued eating, with little conversation between them.

Scarlett wasn’t very hungry because she was tired, and she stopped eating after only a few bites.

Andrew thought the food might not suit her taste, but Scarlett shook her head. “No, I just don’t have much of an appetite.”

“It’s fine. Take your time. Don’t worry about me. I’ll just eat some snacks if I get hungry.”

“Alright, then.”

Andrew lowered his head and continued eating, while Scarlett, sitting opposite him, rested her chin on her hand and watched him.

Suddenly, a pair of chopsticks holding a piece of braised pork was extended toward Andrew’s mouth.

“Hm?”

Andrew paused, his chopsticks stopping in midair.

“Open your mouth. I’ll feed you.”

“But… but I can eat by myself, right?”

Andrew was completely bewildered. He wasn’t feeling unwell, and he had no idea why Scarlett suddenly wanted to feed him.

“I know, so just open your mouth and eat this piece of meat.”

At Scarlett’s urging, Andrew opened his mouth and ate the braised pork.

Scarlett still held the chopsticks, her face filled with satisfaction.

The Little Fellow looks so cute when he’s eating.

As soon as Andrew finished, Scarlett picked up another piece of potato.

“Ah—”

“Mm…”

Andrew felt that Scarlett was already in a bad mood, so he didn’t ask any questions and simply opened his mouth to eat.

Scarlett’s smile widened. She directly took away Andrew’s rice bowl.

“I’m going to feed you for the rest of the meal now.”

“Ah???”

This time, Andrew was completely dumbfounded.

Wait! Why did you take away my rice bowl?

“Teacher… No, um, Scar Mama, I can eat by myself.”

“I know, but is there anything wrong with a mother feeding her son?”

Scarlett looked at Andrew with a smile.

“Besides, you didn’t refuse when I fed you just now.”

“No, it’s just that I…”

Andrew was momentarily speechless, while Scarlett had already brought over a spoon and started feeding him.

“Come on, let Mommy feed you. You don’t eat much by yourself, but you’ll eat more when I feed you.”

“It’s not…”

“No more ‘it’s not.’ Open your mouth. Ah—”

Scarlett gave Andrew no chance to explain. She simply wanted to spoon-feed him. There was no other reason; she just liked doing it this way.

Andrew had no choice but to go along with it. Since things had already come to this, he might as well enjoy it. Being spoon-fed at his age, especially by such a beautiful Scar Mama, actually felt quite nice.

However, while she was feeding him, Andrew began to feel that something was a little off about the way Scarlett looked at him.

Her beautiful, large eyes stared intently at Andrew, filled with satisfaction and affection, along with a hint of greed.

Her gaze was like that of a tiger that hadn’t eaten for days, finally spotting plump prey. It sent a chill down Andrew’s spine.

“Um… Scar Mama, maybe I should just eat by myself.”

“No, let me feed you this last bite.”

Scarlett picked up the final spoonful of rice, but just as she brought it toward Andrew’s mouth, she suddenly pulled it back.

Andrew looked at her, utterly confused. Then he heard Scarlett say with a smile, “How about I chew it up first and feed it to you mouth-to-mouth?”

“???”

Andrew’s eyes widened.

Do you even hear yourself?

“That… maybe that’s not necessary.”

“Why not? Isn’t this how mothers feed their sons?”

But I’m not a little child whose teeth haven’t all grown in! Andrew roared inwardly.

Feeling that Scarlett was becoming a little crazy, he quickly put on a smile and said, “Scar Mama, whatever you want to play, I’ll go along with it. Can I just eat this last bite first?”

But Scarlett shook her head and refused to listen.

“No! I want to feed you, and I want to chew it up first, okay~”

“…”

Andrew swallowed, beginning to feel a little frightened.

Why is Scarlett giving me such a yandere feeling?

Just as cold sweat was about to break out on Andrew’s forehead, Cecilia, who had been quiet for a long time, suddenly cried out.

“Meow—”

(A sound of hunger.)

Taking advantage of Scarlett’s momentary distraction, Andrew immediately opened his mouth and swallowed all the rice on the spoon.

Then, he hurriedly fled toward Cecilia’s cage.

“Um, Cecilia is hungry. I’ll go pour him some cat food.”

“Didn’t you say you were going to starve him for a meal?”

Scarlett spoke coldly, looking very displeased.

She was now seriously considering killing the cat.

“That was just to scare Cecilia. We can’t actually let him starve. After all, he helps catch mice too,” Andrew said with a grin.

Cecilia kept nodding vigorously in agreement.

“Meow meow meow.”

“That’s true.”

Scarlett acknowledged this coldly.

Cecilia thought he had escaped disaster. He happily wagged his tail and wiggled around as he ate his cat food.

However, the next moment, Scarlett spoke again.

“But I think we should have this cat neutered. That way, he won’t have the energy to run around everywhere.”

“Meow!!!”
