Chapter 5: What Date is Today? (2/2)
From Xiao Yu’s position, he could still see with difficulty that Yan Jin had just taken a photo of his serious and silly face, edited it, added a catchy caption ‘A new storm is brewing again’, and sent it to his social group.
He was unexpectedly made into an emoticon!
After he finished that whole series of actions, Yan Jin saw Xiao Yu staring straight at him as if he had done something where even God would not forgive. That little resentful and furious look rendered Yan Jin incapable of controlling the agitation in his heart. He stretched out his finger and poked Xiao Yu’s cheeks.
Xiao Yu turned and snapped his jaws.
Bite you to death!
The bite missed as Yan Jin quickly withdrew his hand.
Then he cheekily poked back again.
Xiao Yu slapped his paw at Yan Jin’s finger. That reaction truly shocked Yan Jin. Seeing Xiao Yu standing on both his feet and pushing his finger away with his paw – such a human reaction from a hamster with short hands and legs was so adorable it would melt any human heart.
Not only was Yan Jin taken aback by the cuteness, he even persistently continued to tease Xiao Yu, hoping to get a more interesting reaction.
Xiao Yu wanted to calm down and think about the situation he was in, but too bad he was just a hamster who couldn’t speak his mind. He had no way to make Yan Jin get out of his sight, so he obediently stayed still and let Yan Jin poke him all over.
There was nothing he could do because Xiao Yu thought that Yan Jin was the type where the more you resisted, the more he bullied you.
Indeed, seeing Xiao Yu not react accordingly, Yan Jin really stopped cautiously poking Xiao Yu. Under Xiao Yu’s ‘I knew this would happen’ gaze, he grabbed Xiao Yu in his palm and rubbed him.
Xiao Yu: Damn it! This was not in the script!
SQUEAKKK!
I’m gonna get tickled to death! I’m dying!!
After torturing to his heart’s content, Yan Jin finally stopped, and Xiao Yu was already panting heavily, not even uttering a single word.
Oh, there was no difference anyway. He couldn’t talk anyhow.
“Very obedient.” Yan Jin concluded with satisfaction.
Xiao Yu, who had nothing left to live for, was put back onto the desk after being played with. He crouched at the corner of the desk, fearing for his life that Yan Jin would suddenly grab him and tease him again. Thankfully, after Yan Jin settled himself down, he started working on his work-related matters, no longer bullying Xiao Yu.
After hiding at the corner of the desk for a while, Xiao Yu looked at Yan Jin who was typing away on the keyboard, not even glancing at him. He soon felt bored.
Xiao Yu carefully walked to the front of the computer, lightly pushing the screen. Yan Jin glanced at the silly-looking hamster, but he did not care about him.
This gave Xiao Yu a huge confidence boost; he looked at Yan Jin’s computer. Realizing that it was all agreement documents, he looked away immediately and played with the ballpoint pen that was scattered on the desk.
While he played around, Xiao Yu thought about the issue regarding the time reversal. Although he was very mindful of this stupid matter earlier, Yan Jin’s interruption made Xiao Yu feel like it was not that confusing anymore.
Walking a few steps towards the edge of the desk, Xiao Yu looked downwards and saw the spot where his cage was just moments ago, which was thrown away by Yan Jin.
But even if that cage was thrown away, there would still be a next one. Very soon, he would be locked back into a cage.
Feeling sad, Xiao Yu’s mind started thinking again. Whatever, he was still a free soul right now. Every moment he could spend outside would just be that.
Xiao Yu soon returned to his happy-go-lucky behavior and ran along the edge of the desk. When he got closer to Yan Jin’s spot, Yan Jin purposefully stretched his hand and pushed him towards the center of the desk.
Xiao Yu just had to go against Yan Jin’s will; he had to run along the edge of the desk.
It was not like he was a real hamster, he wouldn’t fall off just like that.
Then, Xiao Yu slipped ––
