Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-One: Wrapped in Happiness (1/2)

Ten minutes later, Xiao Yu finally calmed down and began to recount the magical happenings starting from when he turned into a hamster up until he returned to his human body again, all while gnawing nonstop on the different kinds of melon seeds Yan Jin had offered.

Meanwhile, Yan Jin listened quietly to his story and when the latter got tired of speaking, he would pass over the mini cup of water that he had had prepared to quench Xiao Yu’s thirst.

“Squeakk…” So that’s what happened.

“Hm, I already knew that.” Yan Jin rubbed Xiao Yu’s little head.

The majority of what Xiao Yu had told him was in line with what Yan Jin had guessed. It was not too different from what he and Liu Ye had concluded few days ago. The only inconsistency was their understanding of the one month of ‘tragic circumstances’ that Xiao Yu had lived through.

For example –

“Squeakkk!” That lawyer is super irritating! How dare he say I’m planning to murder you! He even said that it was according to your instructions!

Yan Jin touched his nose awkwardly as he avoided Xiao Yu’s gaze.

I need to get away with this first.

“Lawyer Hu is my friend. He thought that you would harm me, so his way of doing things may have been a little extreme. I’m really sorry about that.”

Yan Jin innocently shifted all of the blame onto his friend, totally not feeling guilty at all.

“Squeakk.” I knew that had to be the case. You are not that kind of person. Hn.

Xiao Yu, who was innocent like a ‘ten-year-old child,’ got duped easily. From a certain point of view, Lawyer Hu’s description of him was very appropriate.

Xiao Yu complained about Lawyer Hu as he stomped his feet agitatedly, showing that he should scold the lawyer to his face if he met him again.

Yan Jin coughed lightly and successfully distracted Xiao Yu’s attention away from that dangerous topic:

“Could you change back? I would like to talk to the human you.”

Xiao Yu blushed, and he bashfully cowered away.

“Squeakk.” I could. How long have I been like this?

“About fifteen minutes?”

“Squeakk.” I should have turned back by now. I don’t think I drank that much…

Speaking of which, Xiao Yu was puzzled as well. According to his estimation, that glass of liquor should not have caused him to transform at all. Even if he did, it would not be for more than five minutes.

“Your transformation has got something to do with alcohol consumption?” Yan Jin instantly understood the main point.

“Squeakk.” Yup. About one liter of beer could make me stay in this form for around four hours.

Four hours was referring to the length of time he would be in his hamster form. He would need another four hours before his ears and tail went away.

Worried that Yan Jin would not understand the numbers, Xiao Yu even pointed out a ‘one’ and ‘four’ with his little paws.

Yan Jin did a mental calculation and said, “Then you should be able to turn back tomorrow morning.”

“Squeakk?” What?

Xiao Yu was exceptionally confused. He only had one cocktail that contained less than thirty milliliters of alcohol after all.

Understanding Xiao Yu’s confusion, Yan Jin laughed a little as he explained. “After you were knocked out, they forcefully fed you a bottle of vodka, which is equivalent to six bottles of beer I think.”

“!!!” Xiao Yu was shocked beyond words. He did not expect Lin Zhou to do such a thing, neither could he understand why he did that.

“I’m sorry. I should have gone to save you earlier.”

Yan Jin felt apologetic for having let someone force Xiao Yu to get intoxicated. After he had realized the designer’s real identity, he had immediately gotten his men to follow Xiao Yu around. He had initially planned to look for a suitable time before he brought Xiao Yu back home, but he had not expected Lin Zhou to work so fast that he did not even have time to strike first.

More accurately, Yan Jin did not expect the person behind Lin Zhou to act this fast.

When Xiao Yu had been knocked out in the bar, Yan Jin’s subordinates were in fact at the scene. However, the bar was being watched over by another gang at that point. In order not to alert the enemies, his subordinates could only bide their time and wait till Xiao Yu was taken out of the hotel before they jumped into action.

While Xiao Yu was peacefully waking up on Yan Jin’s bed, the war outside had already began.

Of course, Yan Jin would not tell Xiao Yu about that.

“Squeakk.” So it’s you who saved me.

Xiao Yu looked at Yan Jin gratefully, his eyes filled with admiration.

“Squeakk.” Thank you. It’s so good to see you again.

“Me too.”

Yan Jin’s gaze was gentle as he leaned forward naturally.

Xiao Yu did not dodge and offered his parted lips too.

It was like a kiss with only superficial contact.

It was not the first time they had done something so intimate, but it was the first time they both had the same feelings for each other.

“Squeakk.” Hey, won’t you feel weird once I turn back?

Xiao Yu covered his own little mouth and looked away.

“What’s weird? Why would it be weird?” Yan Jin looked genuinely puzzled.

“Squeakkk.” Of course it’s weird. I’m not a real hamster. I’m a human being just like you.

Moreover, I’m a man…

Even without completing his sentence, Yan Jin could still understand him.
