13 PLEASE DONT SPOIL MY LOVE LIFE (1/2)
Mu Lingxi doesn't have much time to care for Ming Rijen, she brought it upon herself. Who the hell asked her to find trouble for Mu Lingxi? If she wished to blame someone, blame her capricious mouth for that.
Besides Mu Lingxi was not some sort of saintly being who will requite evil with good deeds. She won't bother to even look at you twice, but if you crossed her bottom line, then good luck lad because she will not show mercy.
Just like what happened to Ming Rijen, she did not give her a face at all. After letting go of her hand resulting in her falling back to the pond, she just left her there on her sorry state under the watchful eyes of the guests present on the banquet.
What about Yanxiao? Well, since she loves to act as the peacemaker, then she will let that ever so thoughtful cousin of hers play her favorite part. Let her play her role on the same show she orchestrated by herself.
”Hmph! Now try to soothe the situation and salvage the Mu's reputation just like what you always love to do”
she muttered to no one else in particular as she walked away looking for her cat.
While Mu Lingxi was busy looking for her missing cat, the culprit was actually squatting on the ground as if spying with someone.
He was carefully eyeing the little white cat that was standing alone in the middle of the grass fields. She was facing the ground and was busy sniffing as if trying to look for something.
”I never thought that I would still be able to see another living ancient cat on this world as well?”
Janus whispered under his breath.
It was a very cute white little cat. Its eyes have two colors, the left one has the color of the amethyst while the right one has the same color as the sky on a fair-weather day. It has a long, silky, inched-long fur. White as the moon's reflection on a tranquil lake.
Janus slowly went out in his hiding. When the other cat saw him, it was stunned for a while as it stared back to him. They started the staring contest. After a while, the white cat initiated the action.
”MEOW?” a small and sweet voice broke the silence.
[ Are you a real ANTEDILUVIAN CAT???” ]
”MEOW”
[ Yes I am. All along I believed that I am the sole survivor from that flood until I sense your presence here during the banquet. ]
Janus still can't believe what he was seeing.
”MEOW”
[ I saw how that flood killed our brothers and sisters. They were mercilessly killed by that flood before my eyes. We try to run as fast as we could. I thought I would die just like that when I saw the flood was about to engulf me. But before I knew it I was teleported in this world. From then on, I wandered aimlessly here until a fine gentleman took me in his care. ]
the white cat narrated her experience all this time patiently. Her soft eyes were glazed by tears when she tried to recall her past. Maybe knowing the truth that there was another survivor aside her make her feel closer to this another cat.
”MEOW”
[ I am so sorry to hear that. If I just knew earlier that there is another survivor in this world, I would have searched for you no matter what. ]
Janus was so delighted to confirm that there is another ANTEDILUVIAN CAT who survived the flood.
”MEOW”
[ maybe this is the working of destiny. Maybe the deities finally took pity for me and decided to answer my pleas. That is why they send me here after the long wait. To meet you. ]
Janus declared romantically.
”MEOW”
[ Never in my wildest dream I dare to think that someday, I will meet you. I thought I will forever be alone in this life. ]
”MEOW”
[Not anymore. Now that I found you.]
”PURRRRRRR”
the white cat purred shyly, if it just possible for a cat to blush, then she might be red from head to toe now.
”MAAAAAAWWWRRRRRR”
Janus opened his mouth and produced a roaring sound. Something common for the feline family to do when they were trying to express their deep emotion.
MAAAAAWWWWWRRRRR”
