Chapter Fifty-Seven: Questioning Segmen (1/2)

Xiao Yu was surprised. He knew how busy it would be before the Autumn Release Conference. He thought that Yan Jin was just joking with him when the chairman mentioned that he would be home early. He didn’t expect to actually see Yan Jin back this early.

Could it be that Yan Jin had brought unfinished work to settle at home? Yan Jin did seem to have done that in the past.

Very quickly, Xiao Yu knew that he had guessed wrongly, because a few renovation workers in matching uniforms came back with Yan Jin.

Then, under Xiao Yu’s puzzled gaze, these renovation workers… swiftly changed all the lighting in the entire villa.

Yes, the entire villa. Not even a single light bulb was spared and they were all changed into the kind of LED lighting where the light’s intensity could be controlled.

At that moment, regardless of how slow Xiao Yu was, he understood Yan Jin’s painstaking efforts.

The hamster thought that Yan Jin would probably pay more attention because of the incident last night. However, Xiao Yu did not expect that Yan Jin would actually go all out to such an extent.

Thankfully, the veterinarian only mentioned that hamsters should not be exposed to strong lighting. If he were to say that hamsters should not be exposed to light at all, then… The image seemed too wonderful to even imagine.

Xiao Yu was glad that Yan Jin had not changed this splendorous and majestic villa into a haunted house.

“Are your eyes still swollen? Let me have a look.” Yan Jin scooped Xiao Yu into his hand and examined the hamster. Then, before Xiao Yu could react, the chairman quickly leaned in and pressed a kiss on that chubby little waist.

“Squeak!!”

Xiao Yu grumbled as he was kissed without warning. The little hamster swiped his paws, rubbed the fur that was stained with saliva, and smeared his paws disgustedly onto Yan Jin’s finger.

Yan Jin laughed as he flicked Xiao Yu’s head as punishment.

“Squeak!”

Xiao Yu jumped from Yan Jin’s palm onto the table, opened the memo app, and typed: “Stop flicking my head!”

“Depends on your performance.” Yan Jin’s tone was full of teasing.

“Hn!”

Xiao Yu turned his body away resentfully and faced his butt towards Yan Jin.

Yan Jin broke into laughter as he looked up and checked the time: “It’s about time to bathe. Which little toy do you want today?”

Xiao Yu thought for a moment before he typed: “That little yellow duckling.”

Two minutes later, Xiao Yu sat on the little yellow duckling and floated on the water. Somehow, he felt that something seemed weird.

He looked at Yan Jin, who was casually squeezing some shower gel onto his palm, gently rubbing out some foam, and then smearing the content onto Xiao Yu, transforming him into a little white rat.

Wait, that’s not the point.

Xiao Yu was unable to open his eyes with his body covered in foam, so he had no choice but to obediently allow Yan Jin to manhandle him.

What Xiao Yu was thinking was that his identity had been exposed less than a day ago, so why did Yan Jin enter this new interactive pattern so quickly?

Plus, Yan Jin did not seem to have any intent to investigate his origin.

Could it be that this was just the calm before the storm? Was Yan Jin in fact already prepared to throw him away?

Xiao Yu, who was letting his imagination run wild, successfully fell off his little yellow duckling.

“Bloop.” A heavy object fell into the water, splashing water everywhere.

Blub blub blub –

“Fishy?!”

The bathtub was not shallow at all. Thankfully, Yan Jin was right beside it. He swiftly scooped out the hamster that was struggling in the water and wrapped him with a nearby towel.

“Choo, Choo.” Xiao Yu sneezed loudly twice as he shivered and pulled the towel closer.

Bath time ended early as Yan Jin took out the silent blow dryer, switched to warm air mode, and blow dried the hamster.

Fortunately, the recent weather was not too cold. After Xiao Yu was blown dry, other than having a fluffy coat of fur, he did not seem to have any problems.

“You okay?” Yan Jin asked concernedly.

“Squeak.” I’m okay.

Yan Jin sighed as his tone was filled with helplessness: “What were you thinking? You’ve never fallen off before. Now that your identity is exposed, your intelligence was lowered?”

As if knowing that Xiao Yu needed something to express his internal frustration, Yan Jin brought the iPad over.

Xiao Yu typed: “That’s all your fault. Hn.”

Yan Jin acted extremely innocent: “Hm? You’re blaming me?”

“Who asked you to accept all these so naturally.”

“Accept what?” Yan Jin asked.

“My identity of course…”

Xiao Yu felt a little guilty that Yan Jin did not bother to ask and that made him feel anxious and frightened. But if Yan Jin were to ask him, it would not make him feel at ease either.

What if he decided that he didn’t want Xiao Yu any more after asking questions?

Xiao Yu, who had no way out of this dilemma, never would have thought that Yan Jin was in fact not bothered by all these worries he had.

“Your identity? Don’t I know about that already?”

Yan Jin raised Xiao Yu to his eye level and looked at him directly.

“You’re a hamster demon that brings good fortune. Am I right, Mr. Demon?”

Yan Jin articulated this question in his deep attractive voice as if he was whispering words of love into the ears of his lover.

Xiao Yu blushed.

“S-Squeak…”
