The Cat Who Loved Watching Young Masters Vie for Affection - Chapter 1

I’m a cat, a white cat with yellow markings on my back.

My master is a handsome young master, but sadly, he’s blind, his eyes sightless.

I think I must be the smartest cat in this world.

Because I can actually recognize Chinese characters, though I only know three of them.

These three characters are: Sima Xue.

It’s the name of the Second Young Miss of the household.

My master writes it day and night, and each time he finishes writing, he recites it dozens of times.

Even though I’m just a cat, I find it tedious to listen to.

You don’t have to wonder why I say my master is blind, yet also say he writes day and night.

It’s because my master is as smart as I am.

The books in my master’s study all have raised characters engraved on them.

When reading, he just runs his fingers over them. When writing, he relies on the memory in his mind to guide his brush.

Once, my master hadn’t had time to hide the characters he’d written, and the Second Young Miss saw them.

“So ugly.”

Sigh, I’m just a cat, and even I could feel how much my master’s spirit was crushed at that moment.

Fortunately, later, the Second Young Miss actually held my master’s hand herself.

She took the brush and wrote a few characters on the paper.

That day, after the Second Young Miss left.

If you had seen my master’s expression, you would definitely overturn my previous statement.

He’s definitely not as smart as I am.

No, my master is just a fool.

“The Second Young Miss has arrived!”

The young attendant at the door joyfully announced.

They knew that whenever the Second Young Miss came to see the Young Master, he would surely be happy.

The Second Young Miss is my master’s cousin, living in another courtyard.

She’s the person who interacts with my master most frequently, and she’s also the only young woman I’ve seen in all my time beside my master.

“Your cat is quite cute.”

The Second Young Miss always liked to tease me whenever she came.

At first, I didn’t think being held in this woman’s arms and having my fur pulled out counted as any kind of favor.

Only later did I gradually realize.

Recalling when I first entered the manor, a young attendant carried me in from the gate, and my master merely ordered someone to casually feed me a few scraps of leftover food.

But ever since the Second Young Miss defined me as a ‘cute cat,’ my treatment changed drastically.

I was suddenly promoted to my master’s favorite.

I was almost inseparable from my master, and my food improved by who knows how many times.

Thinking of this, I endured the pain of having my fur pulled and rubbed against the woman’s body to please her.

“Huh? Your cat’s fur on its back seems to have gotten darker?”

The woman asked while pulling my fur.

She clapped her hand on her forehead, her pretty expression very cute, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed.

“Sorry, I forgot you can’t see.”

Sima Rong smiled, curling his lips.

A deep tenderness appeared on his usually cold face, and he softly parted his lips.

“It’s fine.”

Xiang Xiu, another handsome young master, is both a teacher and a friend to my master.

I quite like him.

Because every time he comes, he brings my master many books with raised characters carved on them.

My master is always happy to see them.

Sometimes, my master would even read to me while running his fingers over the characters.

I’ll just assume he was reading to me, after all, there was no one else in the room besides me, and no other cats.

He read:

“First let your lips…”

After reading a long passage, my master would stop and ponder deeply.

If there was something he didn’t understand, he would start over and run his fingers over it again.

I’m still very understanding of my master, after all, he’s been blind since childhood.

Even I, a smart cat with clear eyes, can’t understand these obscure words when he reads them.

Perhaps my master finally understood the meaning of the words in that passage.

His furrowed brow relaxed, but a blush appeared on his face.

I’m a cat, but I also have aesthetics.

Believe me, at this moment, my master was definitely the most handsome of handsome men.

He continued to run his fingers over the characters, silently murmuring:

“Your hands must be gentle… until she cries out for mercy.”

“Mercy?”

My master frowned and murmured, then shook his head after a long moment.

“This part is not allowed.”

I was completely confused, thinking that this must be some profound and important knowledge for such a smart and perceptive master to stay up all night studying it.

After that night of intense study, my master changed.

Every time he ‘looked’ at the Second Young Miss, his expression became very awkward, and he was always preoccupied.

The young attendants also started gossiping behind his back.

They said that the Young Master’s feelings for the Second Young Miss had gone beyond the bounds of sibling affection, and there was a suspicion of impropriety.

Whether it’s impropriety or not, I don’t understand.

Our cat tribe doesn’t have as many rules as humans.

As long as a male cat and a female cat like each other, they can be together.

As for sibling affection, I understand that, and I completely agree with the young attendants’ gossip.

After all, which siblings would be so intimate that they’d go into the inner chamber’s bed curtains?

“Sima Rong, you’re really getting better and better.”

The woman didn’t hesitate to praise him.

“As long as you like it.”

Hmph, my master is always a fool in front of the Second Young Miss.

The most common thing he says is: As long as you like it, as long as you’re happy.

I think that period was my master’s happiest.

Because the Second Young Miss would visit my master almost every day or two.

Each time, she would enter the inner chamber, and the two would be all over each other.

Later, my master continued to stay up all night studying, and he actually learned more tricks to make the Second Young Miss stay overnight.

Alas. Unfortunately, good times don’t last.

After some time, the Second Young Miss returned to her previous frequency of visiting my master.

She even came only once every ten days to half a month.

I heard from the young attendants that the Second Young Miss was engaged to Young Master Xiao.

The two were always seen together.

My master often zoned out alone, his face filled with such melancholy that even I, a cat, felt pained watching him.

I haven’t met that Young Master Xiao.

But it’s said that he’s a young noble gentleman as handsome as my master, and equally famous in the capital.

The young attendants all said that the Second Young Miss and Young Master Xiao were a perfect match, a union of pearls and jade, a golden boy and a jade girl.

They also said that Young Master Xiao defied pressure, declaring he wouldn’t marry anyone but the Second Young Miss.

As for what pressure he defied, although I don’t fully understand, I know a thing or two.

Firstly, it’s that the Second Young Miss had an ambiguous relationship with her cousin from the imperial clan, which refers to my master.

Secondly, it’s that the Second Young Miss’s conduct was too dissolute, and she had many handsome young attendants in her courtyard serving her.

As for the first point, I can prove it’s true.

I just don’t know if humans would believe a cat’s testimony.

As for the second point, I can also prove it’s true.

Although I’ve never been to the Second Young Miss’s courtyard, I’ve heard many conversations between the two of them in my master’s inner chamber.

“You… did you want that new attendant, Qingzhu, again last night?”

My master sat by the bed, massaging the Second Young Miss.

“Oh, cousin. You don’t leave the house all day, yet you know so much.”

The Second Young Miss closed her eyes, enjoying it, almost too lazy to retort.

“…Never mind.”

I told you, my master is a clumsy fool in front of the Second Young Miss.

After thinking for a long time, he only managed to utter two words.

“Good. You’re different from them all.”

The Second Young Miss, uncharacteristically, consoled him kindly.

Even I, a cat, could tell that this sentence was purely perfunctory.

But my foolish master took it seriously.

He curled his lips, abandoning his previous aggrieved expression, his face radiating tenderness, coaxing her pleasingly:

“Flip over, and I’ll rub your waist again. Don’t you like it?”

Time flew by, and several more months passed.

This day was the Second Young Miss’s wedding day, marrying her fiancé, Young Master Xiao Che.

I don’t clearly remember the lanterns, firecrackers, and banquet that day.

After all, I was always by my master’s side.

He just sat motionless in a corner, so I couldn’t look around much.

But I do remember that day was quite significant because my master, who never touched alcohol, actually drank.

He drank cup after cup, pouring flask after flask into his mouth.

Since alcohol was so good, why did my master never drink it before?

Although I’m a smart cat, some things are still hard to figure out.

Afterward, waves of people came to persuade him.

The young attendants couldn’t persuade him, so they invited the Old Madam to persuade him.

The Old Madam cried her eyes out but still couldn’t persuade him, and finally, they invited the Old Master.

The Old Master shook his head and sighed, personally snatched the wine cup, smashed it fiercely, and cursed my master a few times, calling him a beast.

But after my master vomited a large mouthful of blood and fell unconscious, the manor became chaotic.

Three days later, the Second Young Miss finally returned to the manor.

They said it was her return visit. She was also arm in arm with a handsome man.

In my opinion, this Xiao Che’s appearance is still a bit inferior to my master’s, only excelling in his clear, bottomless eyes.

Alas, my master’s eyes are beautiful, but unfortunately useless.

Since his collapse three days ago, my master has been lying in bed, neither eating nor drinking.

He only changed into clean clothes today, and for the first time ever, he put a little rouge on his face.

It made his complexion less pale, and he arrived in the living room early to sit and wait.

I yawned, intending to curl up in my master’s arms for a nap.

After all, for these three days, young attendants and doctors had been coming and going in the room.

The Old Madam had been sitting by the bed crying.

The Old Master also kept tapping his cane, loudly cursing, ‘Misfortune has befallen our family, misfortune has befallen our family.’

It was difficult for me, a cat, to get any proper rest either.

I moved my body, just about to fall asleep, but then I felt my master forcefully pulling my fur.

A scholar can endure, but a cat cannot.

Just as I was about to bristle, my smart cat brain suddenly sensed the strange atmosphere in the living room.

The Old Madam was holding the Second Young Miss’s hand and crying.

While crying, she also pleaded, “Please, auntie is begging you, just take your cousin back with you.”

The Old Master also pleaded with an embarrassed expression to the new son-in-law, “My dear nephew, please take Rong’er in for a while.”

The new son-in-law was at a loss.

He looked at the smiling woman standing beside him with an inquiring gaze, sighed inwardly, nodded, and bit his lip as he replied, “Okay.”

“Just clear out a side room for me to stay in, that’ll be enough.”

My master’s clear voice rang out.

Though his voice was still clear, I knew my master was very happy inside, and the excitement in his tone couldn’t escape my cat ears.

I closed my eyes again, thinking to myself that we were moving.

Looking at the luggage that completely filled four carriages.

Xiao Che’s temples throbbed, and he cursed inwardly, “How is this just a short stay?”

Nearly a hundred young attendants, as well as kitchen cooks and nannies, followed closely behind the carriages.

As the carriages slowly moved.

I secretly felt sorry for the horses pulling the carriages, thinking, “Pity for the animals, but not their lives.”

After all, the carriage compartment was really spacious; even with eight horses pulling it, it must have been a struggle.

As my master’s beloved cat, I was fortunate enough to ride inside the carriage, witnessing firsthand how two husbands served one wife.

To be honest, I was already accustomed to the intimate cohabitation of the Second Young Miss and my master.

But this was my first time seeing two men intimately cohabiting with the Second Young Miss.

Please forgive my limited vocabulary. After all, I’m just a smart cat.

As I watched, I began to suspect whether my master had secretly communicated with this Young Master Xiao while I was sleeping.

Otherwise, how could the two of them cooperate so tacitly?

Tsk, tsk, it’s a bit good to watch, I love watching it, and I want to watch more.

Xiao Che, who is the Second Young Miss’s husband, personally arranged a large courtyard for my master.

However, my master frowned, clearly not liking it.

I don’t know what my master said to the Second Young Miss that night.

But the next day, my master happily moved to another courtyard.

This one was much smaller than the previous one, and the servants brought from the original manor had to squeeze together, which was very inconvenient.

However, my master had a smile on his face and was very satisfied.

If there was a benefit, there was probably only one.

That is, this place was only separated from the Second Young Miss’s courtyard by a wall.

Even if my master’s eyes were useless, he could easily walk over.

Dinner that day was eaten in the Second Young Miss’s courtyard.

One table, with two men and one woman seated around it.

Behind them stood several young attendants serving food and refilling rice.

I, as a beloved pet, nestled at the foot of the table, enjoying my special cat food.

Originally, time was peaceful, everything serene.

I enjoyed the delicious salted fish and small shrimp, lamenting that the food at the Xiao Manor was not bad compared to the Sima Manor.

But for some reason, the young attendants were suddenly shooed away.

The room became quiet.

I quietly crawled out from under the table to peek, sensing that the atmosphere among the three people at the table was very strange.

Of course, human affairs always seem strange and unfathomable to me.

For example, my master often says I’m a lustful cat, saying I always like to watch him and the Second Young Miss’s amorous activities.

This sentence is very strange.

Whether I’m a lustful cat or not, I don’t understand.

But I’m a cat, so of course I like to watch ‘fish’ amorous activities.

Thinking of this, I crawled back to my cat bowl, picked up the salted fish inside, and began to chew and swallow.

I was still regretting that there was only fish, no water.

Then I actually heard the sound of water.

Biting the salted fish in my mouth, I quietly went to peek.

“Hahahaha.” The Second Young Miss laughed, shaking like a flower branch in the wind.

I still didn’t quite understand what she found so funny, but then I suddenly understood the meaning of a word I had heard before: involution.

The two men completely began their involution.

Lunch wasn’t even finished yet. The Second Young Miss was still chewing slowly at the table.

But a chaotic battle had broken out under the table.

My master groped and knelt under the table…

Having lost my spot under the table, I could only carefully hold my cat bowl in my mouth and run to a slightly further position.

To avoid these two men, who looked like they were fighting for food, snatching the salted fish from my bowl.

From that day on, I don’t know how these two men reached an agreement.

In short, almost every day for lunch and dinner, my master would eat with the Second Young Miss and Xiao Che.

As for why they didn’t eat breakfast together.

That’s because the Second Young Miss liked to sleep in, and her breakfast was always delayed until it merged with lunch.

My dining spot was basically fixed then.

At first, I was a bit unaccustomed to it, but gradually, it became my must-watch show during meals.

Without the show, I would actually find the food tasteless.

“Is the abalone delicious?”

Hearing the Second Young Miss’s playful voice.

It was like a sudden enlightenment for me; it was abalone after all!

En. I nodded my cat head and used my paws to smooth my fur.

I thought to myself, so humans also like to eat fish so much.

Of course, we didn’t eat with the Second Young Miss every day.

For example, that day.

A young attendant came to inform my master: “The Young Miss and the son-in-law have gone boating on the lake. They instructed the Young Master to eat lunch by himself.”

He probably didn’t want to eat. My master definitely didn’t eat lunch.

I wonder how my master’s digestive system is built?

When he’s not with that woman, he doesn’t eat, only drinks some water or reluctantly eats some snacks.

If he’s with that woman, even if he eats snacks, he’ll only add one more bowl of rice at most.

Even though my master didn’t eat lunch, the manor didn’t skimp on my food as a beloved pet.

I was lowering my head, eating with relish.

I heard a young attendant report that Xiang Xiu had arrived.

Since my master moved into the Xiao Manor, this was Xiang Xiu’s first visit.

I quite like him.

After all, on weekdays, besides smiling when he’s with the Second Young Miss.

He only lets go of his inner gloom and smiles when he’s in front of this Xiang Xiu, who is both his teacher and friend.

Sure enough, when I finished my cat food and returned to my master’s side, I saw my master playing chess with Xiang Xiu, a smile on his lips.

The black chess pieces were larger, the white chess pieces smaller.

Because of this, I once complained with indignant meows that this was discrimination against us white creatures! Including white cats.

The chessboard was also specially made, with each square indented downwards, making it particularly suitable for humans like my master, whose eyes were not useful, to play chess.

“Rumor has it outside that Young Master Sima has become his cousin’s male favorite and is living together in the Xiao Manor.”

“What others say has nothing to do with me.”

“It has nothing to do with you. You just need to serve your cousin well, that’s enough.”

Xiang Xiu smiled and placed a piece.

“However, that Young Master Xiao, who serves one woman with you, he’s in for a miserable time.”

My master stopped speaking and didn’t make a move.

Clearly, he was waiting for Xiang Xiu to continue.

“He was originally recommended for his filial piety and got a decent official position. But because he defied the old man and insisted on marrying…

Cough. After marrying that person, you also came to live in the manor.

That old man, in a fit of rage, went to keep vigil for the Old Master and swore never to return to the capital.”

He paused, then continued, “Young Master Xiao’s official position, I’m afraid, is a duck that flew away just as he was about to catch it~”

“I thought it was something major.”

My master smiled, shook his head, and placed another black piece.

“Not to mention our Sima family, even his Xiao family, with generations of accumulated wealth, doesn’t care about that meager salary.

It’s fine not to be an official. It’s better to free up more time to serve her.”

Xiang Xiu was speechless for a moment, having been rebutted.

He said no more and continued playing chess.

Suddenly, a crackling sound came from outside the door, followed by the joyful announcement of the young attendants:

“Young Master, the Second Young Miss is here!”

“Xiang Xiu is also here.”

The woman had already walked in before the young attendant at the door could finish announcing.

She first paused upon seeing Xiang Xiu, then smiled and greeted him.

Afterward, she directly pulled my master’s robe sash and walked towards the inner chamber.

As they walked, she said, “While boating, Xiao Che received an imperial decree, telling him to report to the Emperor. You massage me…”

Her voice, along with their footsteps, grew further and softer, the latter part almost inaudible.

I followed my master out of habit, wagging my tail and swaggering into the inner chamber.

But then I heard the woman’s displeased voice: “Put some effort into it, you’re worse than your cat.”

I, who had been suddenly mentioned by the woman, twitched my fur and quickly retreated from the inner chamber.

“Do you know what it means to see no evil, hear no evil?”

Xiang Xiu lowered his head and held me on his lap, stroking my fur with his fingers one by one.

I comfortably narrowed my eyes, but I felt something hard pressing against my paw, uncomfortably.

With a jolt of bristling fur, I jumped off his lap.

I am the smartest cat in this world, so I naturally know what that thing was, and I couldn’t help but meow: You hypocrite.

Compared to being with the hypocrite outside, I’d rather admit I’m a lustful cat.

I ran back into the inner chamber to continue watching.

The woman was accustomed to being served by others.

For a moment, she forgot that my master was blind, and merely displeased with his heavy hand, she raised her leg and kicked my master forcefully in the head.

“Ah.”

My master was kicked unexpectedly in the face, and his body, which had just stood up, stumbled and fell to the ground.

“You.”

The woman only then remembered that my master’s eyes were useless.

She frowned and bit her lip.

Although she realized that the kick she had just delivered was a bit excessive, the woman was accustomed to being pampered, so she wouldn’t apologize.

She just paused for a moment, then called out loudly.

She wanted to call the young attendants serving outside to come in and help Sima Rong up.

However, the first to enter was Xiang Xiu, who had been sitting just outside the door, closest to the inner chamber.

He silently helped Sima Rong, who was still lying on the ground, up first.

Then, he lowered his head and awkwardly cleared his throat, his gaze darting away, not daring to look at the disheveled woman on the bed.

“Xiang Xiu, you serve me.”

Xiang Xiu’s body stiffened, completely stunned.

“You don’t want to?”

The woman snorted coldly, emphasizing her tone with displeasure.

Sima Rong, who had just been kicked to the ground by the woman and was currently being supported by Xiang Xiu, was the first to react.

He quickly raised his voice and called out to the door before Xiang Xiu could hesitate:

“Where are the people outside? Why aren’t you coming in to serve quickly?”

As his voice fell, the attendants waiting outside filed in.

The leader, named Qingzhu, respectfully came to the Second Young Miss’s bedside with lowered eyes.

“Qingzhu? Why are you here?”

The Second Young Miss raised an eyebrow, casually resting her hand on Qingzhu’s extended arm, letting him gently help her change.

“Master. You haven’t seen your servant for quite some time. Your servant truly misses you, so I dared to come in and serve…”

Qingzhu knelt at the Second Young Miss’s feet, bowing his head and speaking with a choked voice.

Although I’m a cat, I can tell that this Qingzhu is not an ordinary attendant.

He has delicate features.

His clothes and grooming are also much better than other attendants’, almost like a young noble master from some family.

When the blind master heard the Second Young Miss call out “Qingzhu,” his body visibly stiffened.

In my opinion, he was probably even stiffer than Xiang Xiu just now.

With a crowd of people serving in the room, I, a cat, felt only boredom.

So, wagging my tail, I slipped out from among the people, preparing to wander outside to the courtyard to bask in the sun.

I idly played with a ball of yarn for a while, then lazily yawned under the sun.

Just as I walked back to the doorway and found a shaded spot, hoping to get some more rest, the loud noise from the inner chamber scared away my drowsiness.

As a cat who loves gossip, I naturally hurried back to watch the excitement.

Inside the room, the attendants were all kneeling on the floor.

Qingzhu, kneeling at the very front, was trembling violently, completely drenched, his carefully combed black hair dripping water.

The Second Young Miss sat with a grim expression, while my master stood beside her, coaxing her gently.

“He’s just a servant. Why are you angry with him? If you don’t like him, just send him away to be sold.”

My master said softly.

“No! Master! Please don’t sell your servant! Your servant knows his mistake, Master!”

Qingzhu crawled a few steps towards the Second Young Miss, hugging her leg and crying.

“Hmph. I’ve just spoiled you too much on weekdays.”

The woman snorted, ignoring Qingzhu who was crying at her feet, and her gaze fell on Xiang Xiu, who stood rigidly to the side.

“Young Master Sima, servants are also people.”

“Oh? Are you pleading for him?”

The woman asked with a lazy curl of her lips.

Xiang Xiu paused for a long time before letting out a muffled “En” from his throat.

But it drew a peal of silver laughter from the woman.

“Hehehehehe, good. Xiang Xiu, since you’re pleading for him, then you’ve lost the bet. A gentleman abides by his bets.”

The woman winked proudly.

I was completely confused.

How did the Second Young Miss and Xiang Xiu make a bet while I was out sunbathing and playing with my yarn ball?

I scratched my cat head with my paw.

But I keenly heard my master’s soft sigh.

I looked up and saw his face was filled with helplessness and indulgence.

The smile still on his lips, however, was much uglier than usual.

Ever since that day, when Xiang Xiu lost his bet with the Second Young Miss in my master’s inner chamber, he’s been different.

From my simple cat’s perspective, the biggest change is that he visits my master more often.

In the past, he would come about once every half a month, bringing some specially carved books with raised characters for my master, and perhaps playing chess and joking with him.

Now, he comes to visit every two or three days.

Occasionally, he even stays overnight in my master’s courtyard.

That day, I was lying in the Second Young Miss’s courtyard, enjoying the cool air. It was late at night, and the inner chamber was brightly lit.

Don’t ask me why I was lying in the Second Young Miss’s courtyard; it’s because my master was there, of course.

As his personal pet cat, I always follow my master wherever he goes.

“Lustful cat, why are you lying outside?”

Xiang Xiu walked in from outside the courtyard. While the attendant went inside to announce him, he had time to talk and amuse himself with me.

I meowed, turned over, and ignored him.

In the middle of the night, he, a noble young master, entered and exited someone’s private residence without any hesitation. Hmph, and he still had the nerve to call me a lustful cat.

“I ask you, is your master inside serving the Second Young Miss together with Xiao Che?”

I rolled my eyes in exasperation—well, as much of an eye-roll as a cat can manage in human terms.

Anyway, I meowed twice again, saying ‘That’s right’ in cat language.

He’s asking the obvious.

This Xiang Xiu is quite an interesting human. He seemed to understand my cat language, and he actually squatted beside me.

He continued to ask with a frown, “The Second Young Miss hasn’t sent anyone to find me for seven days. Do you think she’s tired of me?”

I blinked blankly, just about to meow a few more times to converse with him.

But then I saw him smile bitterly and stand up again.

It was as if something was about to spill from his eyes, and he stared intently in the direction of the inner chamber, waiting for the attendant who went to announce him to come out.

I felt a shiver run through my body.

I was very familiar with that look, because I saw it every day in my master’s eyes when he thought of the Second Young Miss.

Unconsciously, I followed Xiang Xiu’s footsteps and walked into the inner chamber.

Compared to his hasty steps, my cat paws walked much more gracefully and unhurriedly.

The bed curtains weren’t fully drawn.

“Xiang Xiu, you’ve come at just the right time.”

The woman reached out an arm from behind the bed curtains.

Xiang Xiu’s cheeks flushed when he heard the woman call him, and he nodded gently.

I meowed, unable to help but shake my head and sigh, thinking his willpower was insufficient.

Yet, I was also quite worried about my own situation.

I’ve been a solitary cat for so long, and my master doesn’t even think about finding a female cat to accompany me. That’s truly wrong.

I blinked, wiped my drooling cat mouth, meowed, and scurried away.

Silently chanting: “See no evil, see no evil.”

I’m not clear about what happened to those humans later.

But I knew I wouldn’t be able to return to my master’s courtyard tonight.

The next morning, as I stretched my back, wagged my tail, and squatted in the Second Young Miss’s courtyard, chasing butterflies.

It was almost lunchtime.

I scratched my cat head, thinking: Xiang Xiu is still not leaving, it seems he’s staying for another meal.

I privately thought that Xiang Xiu must have also realized that the food at the Xiao Manor was more delicious than at his own manor.

I must say, in this regard, his taste coincides with mine.

The chefs at the Xiao Manor gathered from all corners of the world, offering a variety of flavors.

Sour, sweet, spicy, salty, bland, hard, soft, tender, crispy.

Tsk, tsk, truly everything imaginable.

I’d say the Second Young Miss is the best gourmand I know among humans; she likes to try all kinds of delicious food.

The only drawback is that she’s too fickle, her likes and dislikes are unstable.

For example, last night I secretly heard the chefs saying that the Second Young Miss wanted to eat Sichuan cuisine for lunch today.

I secretly pondered that I would definitely get to eat spicy fish today, which made my mouth water.

But now I can only stare blankly at the plain boiled fish in my bowl.

“Didn’t you sleep well last night?”

Xiao Che carefully picked out the fish bones and placed the fish meat on the plate in front of the Second Young Miss.

“What do you think?”

The Second Young Miss was clearly a bit weak, and she reprimanded him with wide, angry eyes.

Xiao Che’s ear tips turned red, and he chuckled softly: “Last night, we were presumptuous. My lady, please don’t be angry.”

“It’s our fault. I’ll get you some ice to cold compress it later, it will definitely reduce the swelling.”

Xiang Xiu admitted his mistake with a hoarse voice.

I continued to eat my plain boiled fish in the corner of the table. Hmm, it tasted quite good too.

It’s just that anything the Second Young Miss likes to eat doesn’t taste bad.

At the same time, I perked up my ears, listening to the conversation of the three men and one woman sitting around the round table.

Sure enough, within a couple of bites of fish. A servant came in with a basin full of ice.

Tsk, tsk, the scenery from now on will gain another element.
