Chapter 8: Fame Comes In Waves
The maids filed into the room in a single line, carefully yet nimbly helping Bei Gongyan change his clothes. Mi Xiaoqi lay comfortably on the bed, unashamedly watching a certain man stretch his arms as the group of women busily fluttered all around him. She suddenly felt that being a maid to this w.a.n.gye was indeed full of hards.h.i.+ps, being so close to such an unparalleled handsome man!
”Miaowr……” Before her spirit could recover, a certain cat was already in w.a.n.gye's hands.
Her face was filled with grief.
Mi Xiaoqi leaned on her belly.
She instinctively breathed through her nose twice, finding a sweet smell. She c.o.c.ked her head, sure enough, an array of delicacies were spread out on a not so far away table.
”Hungry?”
”Miaowr.” Mi Xiaoqi nodded fawningly.
”Lu Luo.”
”This servant is here.” Bei Gongyan released his hand, letting Mi Xiaoqi who was licking her lips fall to the ground.
Lu Luo hastily stepped forward and softly picked her up.
”Miaowr…” Mi Xiaoqi face was aggrieved, her two large eyes flas.h.i.+ng with a trace of discontent and resentment. All right, it looks like the only thing she could do was hide her grievances.
Bei Gong Yan's lip softly curved downwards, ”Go.”
”Yes.” Lu Luo carefully lifted Mi Xiaoqi onto the dining table. Just like the previous night, Mi Xiaoqi picked out the dishes that she liked before sitting primly, waiting for Lu Lou to feed her.
With Bei Gongyan already seated at the table, there was naturally someone to serve him as well.
After breakfast was finished, Bei Gongyan extended his hand, so Lu Luo hurriedly transferred Mi Xiaoqi to him.
”Miaowr.” she called out discontentedly, although in a soft voice. Faced with such a person who doesn't exhibit normal behaviour when angry or happy – it's better to be more tactful.
How to escape?
While she was lost in thought, both of them had already arrived at the study.
Bei Gongyan leaned back on the chair, dropping Mi Xiaoqi haphazardly onto his lap and started stroking her fur.
”You should get a name.”
”Miaowr.” No, no, I already have a name.
”Little Kitty….”
Your sis ah, your entire family are cats!
”Midget…”
You're the midget!!
”Miaowr!!” Mi Xiaoqi stood up and with a leap, got onto the table. Her two front paws grabbed a writing brush, brandis.h.i.+ng it…
”You can write?” Bei Gongyan stared at Mi Xiaoqi, as if he wanted to see through her.
A certain cat lifted her head in pride, she can write a lot of words!
Bei Gongyan took the brush and dipped it in some ink. Mi Xiaoqi took it and on the pristine white paper, wrote a crooked ”Qi” (七 – Seven).
”Qi? Your name?” Bei Gongyan raised an eyebrow.
