Pei Zhen was an overbearing and arrogant boss.
Even when he was a human, he had never given the media or keyboard warriors any face.
Pei Zhen had internal standards, and all would be well if things were not against his principles. However, if someone crossed certain lines, then it had always been known that, at best, he'd have a total disregard and dislike for the person in a very upfront manner.
Daddy Pei—that was Daddy Pei in essence.
Even if someone disliked Pei Zhen, the fortunate fact was that in the modern world, most people were still decent.
Those rich housewife fans who shared similar views with Pei Zhen were great defensive warriors, and they were a formidable lot.
For that reason, even after Pei Zhen had turned into a cat, he continued to be just as arrogant. However, he had concerns totally different from what Xiao Nian was worrying over. He was troubled that Fu Sichen could actually tug at his heartstrings.
As for Fu Sichen...
Of course, he was extremely virtuous.
Those brainless evil fans and writers could not hold a candle against him.
Pei Zhen thought of that in a rather straightforward and matter-of-factly way. Only, when Xiao Nian had that ambiguous expression, it brought back the memory of the kiss, and everything felt wrong again.
His face started to flush, and his heart rate rose. It felt like a fire had ignited in him, and it began to burn fiercely.
It was crazy.
His heart was like a battlefield. It was a good thing he was a cat, and Xiao Nian wasn't able to detect anything amiss. Pei Zhen calmed down quickly and put on a sarcastic expression which proved to be a perfect cover-up.
"Fine, fine. I will reply to the Animal Shelter now and ensure there's publicity. This is your debut." Xiao Nian sniggered.
Pei Zhen had no interest in being a debutante and was more concerned with how to become a human being again.
While Xiao Nian was on the phone, Pei Zhen couldn't help but sneak a closer look at the jade pendant.
It was a good quality stone—an extremely translucent green. Hung around his neck, Pei Zhen could feel the coolness of the pendant even through his coat of fur.
He wasn't an expert at jadeite but had a feeling that the piece of jade was very valuable.
The stinker.
Did Fu Sichen think that he could buy his way into Pei Zhen's heart with a piece of antique jewelry? How na?ve!
After a round of complaining to himself about Fu Sichen, Pei Zhen eventually retracted his claws and lazily sprawled himself out, squinting as he thought of reasons for himself to accept Fu Sichen's gift.
The carved jade pendant certainly looked like a gift—an accessory. If he didn't accept it, how would the pendant ever face its fellow jade pieces ever again?
Pei Zhen's mind wandered everywhere. Except to the memory of the kiss.
What was it like?
It was quite sweet...
Fu Sichen had been busy.
Unending assignments and ceaseless filming, but he would make quick trips back home whenever he had a sliver of time.
He'd go home to cook for the Persian cat; he thought it would help build their relationship.
But Pei Zhen was nonchalant—or at least, he seemed to be. In reality, day-by-day, he found himself increasingly sneaking looks in Fu Sichen's direction.
Fu Sichen was extremely kind and generous towards him. It didn't feel like he was hiding any secrets from Pei Zhen.
"All these years I've loved only one person." When Fu Sichen laughed, there was a bright twinkle in his eyes that anyone would fall for."Only one person."
It was the person recorded on his computer.
It was the person in the old school notes.
It was Pei Zhen and only Pei Zhen.
The expression in Fu Sichen's eyes was sincere and made Pei Zhen's heart race. Pei Zhen quickly looked away to calm himself down, diverting his gaze back to the computer.
He was trying to satisfy his own curiosity.
The entertainment circle was always generating news—either someone was involved in a scandal with someone, or someone broke up with someone. Pei Zhen scanned through the news and took none of it to heart.
Of course, there were some things that he cared for.
He came across a pop-up piece which analyzed Fu Sichen's and Lin Yousu's fake relationship.
It all sounded logical and legit.
Pei Zhen posted a 'Like'.
