Intense Love - Chapter 29 - Wutong (1)

Chapter 29 – Wutong (1)

When they came out of ‘Guan Yu Tai’, it was already late at night.

“Second Young Master, Miss Su, we have already prepared the rooms. Please go there together to rest.” The butler said.

Su Jinbei surprised, “Together, I’ll be in a room with him?”

The affair stuttered, “No, no, we have arranged for Miss to stay in the room next to Second Young Master.”

“Then we’re not going together,” Su Jinbei said seriously, “Don’t mislead me.”

The butler felt sweat form, “…Yes.”

Zhou Shiyun’s eyes fell lightly on Su Jinbei’s face, “It was clearly you who overthought.”

“I overthought?” Su Gui looked at him obliquely. “I thought that since Grandma’s so anxious to hold a great-grandson, it’s very possible that they would arrange for us to stay in the same room.”

Zhou Shiyun, “Grandma knows very well that that’s no use.”

Su Jinbei froze, “What do you mean by that!”

Zhou Shiyun walked forward and stopped talking.

Su Jinbei watched his back, and turned sharply to the unlucky butler, “What does he mean? Does he mean that he is not interested in me at all?”

Butler, “… Second Young Master, Second Young Master should not mean that.”

Su Jinbei narrowed her eyes, “I think he does!”

Butler: I really don’t know anything …

She arrived at the room specially prepared for her, then the maid brought pajamas and a set of cheongsam for daily wear. Do people here prefer this type of clothing?

Su Jinbei took a shower in the bathroom and put on her pajamas. The pajamas were of high quality and felt silky on the body. Su Jinbei was very satisfied and laid in bed to sleep.

Maybe because she wasn’t used to this unfamiliar environment, she was tossing and turning and could not sleep. In the end, she just stared up at the ceiling. Today was really quite a strange day. She would never have expected that she would follow Zhou Shiyun to the Imperial Capital without a single word. She was always so opposed to coming here before… Su Jinbei shook her head, it was indeed true that beauty can make you blind.

She couldn’t sleep in the end, Su Jinbei rose from the bed and went out the door. Zhou Shiyun’s room was next door, but it was so late now that he was probably asleep.

“Meow.” The sound was very light. Su Jinbei was confused and followed the voice.

Su Jinbei did not expect to see a light brown cat around the corner. Its fur was very long and looked very soft. Coupled with its fat body, it looked extremely dumb and cute at the same time…

At this time, the cat was looking at her lazily.

Su Jinbei squatted down and reached out tentatively to pet its back. Instead of hiding, it opened its mouth comfortably, as if yawning.

Because she was always flying back and forth, Su Jinbei has never had a pet, but she still loves cats and dogs inside. Seeing such a cute cat in the middle of the night, her love was suddenly reignited.

Su Jinbei carefully cradled it in her arms, and after adjusting her position, she couldn’t help but frown, “You are heavy.”

“Meow~” It raised its eyes, seemingly dissatisfied.

Su Jinbei chuckled, “Who’s pet are you, where did you come in from?”

“Meow.”

“What’s your name? Gee, what kind of expression is that?” Su Jinbei touched its head, teasing it.

And then, “Su Jinbei?”

Hearing the cold voice that suddenly came from behind her, Su Jinbei turned her head and looked at Zhou Shiyun in surprise, “Why are you not asleep yet?”

“You …” Zhou Shiyun was more surprised than her, “You’re hugging it?”

Su Jinbei looked at the cat in her arms, “Oh, the cat? I couldn’t sleep just now and came out and saw it. You know this cat, who does it belong to?”

“It was my mother’s before she passed away.”

Su Jinbei was stunned for a while, “Before she passed away?”

Zhou Shiyun nodded, “Mother passed away five years ago, but Wutong has been under the care of Mother’s previous attendants. How did it get here today?”

Su Jinbei, “Wutong? It’s called Wutong?”

“Yep.”

Indeed, its big, lazy eyes are black, the name Wutong1 [javascript:void(0)]Wutong literally means black pupils.suits it perfectly.

“Wutong probably secretly ran out, what a coincidence, that it seems we’re fated.”

Zhou Shiyun looked at Su Jinbei who smirked with her eyes lowered and became distracted. Wutong was obediently nested in her arms, just like how it nestled in his mother’s arms. The fact that Wutong even let her hold it… Su Jinbei must truly be special.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Su Jinbei looked up at Zhou Shiyun and when their eyes met she paused slightly. At this moment, Zhou Shiyun’s gaze did not contain its usual coldness and depth, rather it contained an unspoken gentleness.

Was she hallucinating because it was too late into the night?

Zhou Shiyun didn’t answer. He averted his eyes and reached out to touch Wutong’s back. He said, “Wutong is quite shy around strangers. Other than Zhai yi who was my mother’s attendant and me, it wouldn’t let anyone else hold it.

“But it’s so obedient in my arms.”

Zhou Shiyun said, “That’s why I was surprised.”

“Oh, don’t be surprised, this just shows how friendly and approachable I am.” Su Jinbei looked at Zhou Shiyun proudly. “Even your cat is in love with me, Zhou Shiyun, you’re not far away either.”
