Chapter 209: The Male Lead Raises a Cat (25)

Shen Mubai didn't notice this detail. She was still savouring the taste of the small dried fish snack. When she saw the male lead had his back towards her, she stealthily walked towards the place where the small fish snacks were placed.

After taking a few steps, the male lead, who was originally washing vegetables, turned his body around without her noticing. With a cold and emotionless voice, he asked, "where are you going?"

Shen Mubai stopped in her tracks and obediently sat still, looking innocent, "meow~"

Jiang Yiran looked at her with a cold gaze and said, "you're not allowed to eat too many snacks."

Shen Mubai meowed in a pitiful manner, and then, well, there was no more to it.

Small fish may be a small matter, but falling out of favour is a big deal.

In the afternoon, Shen Mubai still didn't want to stay at home, so she thought of the snack street near the school and secretly came up with an idea.

When the male lead wasn't paying attention, she took the initiative to crawl into his school bag.

Jiang Yiran couldn't have noticed, but he didn't throw Shen Mubai out, instead he picked up the bag and left.

This silly Shen Mubai thought the other party hadn't noticed and happily chuckled to herself.

But before she could take a few steps, the bag was opened and accompanied by a chilly and unique voice, "do you want to suffocate yourself?"

Shen Mubai, "...".

Timidly, the furry female cat buried her head completely in her school bag, emitting a meowing sound of apology from her mouth.

Jiang Yiran raised an imperceptible eyebrow and just lightly flicked her head, saying, "stupid cat."

His cold and detached voice still showed no emotional fluctuations as he spoke those two words. But for some inexplicable reason, Shen Mubai felt a sudden sense of pleasure in the male lead's mood.

She looked up in disbelief, and upon seeing the male lead's expressionless face, she deeply doubted her own judgment.

The afternoon time passed in the small space once again, but for Shen Mubai, it was just a longer nap time. As for the teacher's words in class, they could serve as a hypnotic effect.

"Snooze~ Snooze~ Snooze~"

The atmosphere in the classroom was not particularly quiet, with occasional sounds of the teacher lecturing, students flipping through pages, and the whirring sound of the ceiling fan, enough to drown out this not-so-loud sound.

Shen Mubai was sound asleep when she felt something gentle brush against her nose.

Unable to resist, she used her claws to scratch at the thing that was bothering her. After it moved away, she fell asleep again. But after a few seconds, the annoying thing came back, and she used her claws to scratch at it once more. The thing dodged away again. This cycle repeated several times, and Shen Mubai, still half-asleep, opened her mouth and bite down on the thing that was bothering her, hitting her target.

The texture was soft and a little bouncy. She couldn't resist biting it with her sharp teeth again, and she felt it pause for a moment before opening her eyes in surprise. But the thing quickly escaped from her mouth and disappeared.

"Meow, meow, meow?"

Shen Mubai looked around with a puzzled expression, then cautiously stuck her head out of the opening in the school bag. After finding nothing suspicious nearby, she pulled her head back in, still looking confused.

The end-of-class bell quickly interrupted her thoughts. It was time to go home. This teacher didn't have the habit of running overtime, and as the students shouted and chattered, the classroom became noisy.
