Chapter 206: The Male Lead Raises a Cat (22)

In the afternoon, Shen Mubai was locked up at home again, but at least she had the System and TV dramas to pass the time.

At night, she still slept on the tatami, and in the middle of the night, Shen Mubai became thirsty. She groggily jumped down and headed straight for the refrigerator.

Skillfully opening the refrigerator door, the sudden coldness made her mind clearer. Shen Mubai shivered and trembled as she reached out with her paw, trying to hook out the yogurt that was placed at the very back.

But due to the distance being too far and her leg being too short, she had to tiptoe and desperately squeeze in.

Suddenly, with a click, the living room light was turned on, and the bright light covered every corner, making it incredibly bright.

Shen Mubai's body became incredibly stiff. She trembled as she backed out and then jumped away from the fridge. At a glance, she saw the male lead staring straight at her on the stairs to the second floor.

Shen Mubai meowed nervously.

Jiang Yiran stood still, his eyes showing no emotion, and his face still had a cold and indifferent expression, but his gaze remained fixed on her.

Shen Mubai's heart was trembling, and even the tip of her tail was trembling.

#What to do if caught stealing from the refrigerator in the middle of the night by the owner? Urgent! Waiting online now!#

Just as Shen Mubai couldn't help burying her face in her paws, the other person walked towards her direction, making a not-too-light, not-too-heavy sound on the floor. Each step felt like it was stepping on her heart, and she shrank even more.

Finally, Shen Mubai could only sense the other person stopping in front of her.

"Meow~" unable to help but apologize first, Shen Mubai still couldn't lift her head, her paws were getting tighter and tighter, and her whole face was almost buried in the ground.

A hand covered her head, the temperature of the other person's palm carrying a slight coolness, it was very comfortable.

"Forget it." When the other person said this in an icy voice, there was a hint of imperceptible helplessness.

Shen Mubai's furry ears trembled slightly. She moved away one paw and quietly looked over, meeting the deep gaze of the male lead. The other person had his back to the light, and his expression was ambiguous.

Shen Mubai released her paw that was covering her face, then meowed and leaned over to rub against the male lead's hand, even using her little tongue to affectionately lick the other person's fingers.

Jiang Yiran half-squatted, his gaze fell on the other's foolish and pitiful face. He couldn't help but rub her head and said, "Did you think I didn't know?"

Shen Mubai's body stiffened, pretending to be ignorant, staring at the male lead and meowed innocently.

Jiang Yiran's eyes were deep, and no one could tell his current mood.

After a while, he slowly said, "Drinking cold water at midnight is not good."

The cold tone revealed a hint of displeasure.

Shen Mubai meowed with a lack of confidence.

Finally, Jiang Yiran poured her a glass of warm water, and as he watched her stretch out her pink tongue to lick the water, his eyes flickered.

After Shen Mubai finished drinking the water, Jiang Yiran turned off the lights in the living room. His voice in the darkness was softer than usual, "Goodnight."

"Meow~" Goodnight, human slave.

Back on the tatami, Shen Mubai remembered Jiang Yiran's words just now, and her heart tightened. She quickly asked the system, "Will the male lead notice something?"

The system said, "Possibly."

Shen Mubai asked nervously, "What should I do, System?"

The System said, "Don't worry, if he wanted to kick you out, he would have done it already."
