Ch27 - To Fall Into Enemy Hands
Ba Mei wasn’t a kitty who would get close to just anyone. For it to have relaxed in Ji Xiunian’s embrace meant that it really liked him—

Like the three who had been sent by the Grim Reaper Bureau before, they had been won over by the enemy as if they had no principles.

However, the sentence ‘Looks like it likes you too’ held another layer of meaning to the others who heard it.

“As expected, the cat follows its master. You like Nian ge, so Ba Mei also follows and likes Nian ge.” Shen Chengyu was the closest to them, and heard the “too”, so he couldn’t help but come up with his own explanation.

Lu Xu didn’t elaborate, he only curved his lips in a smile. “Ba Mei is quite heavy. Nian ge, you don’t need to keep holding it.”

Ji Xiunian looked at Ba Mei when he heard those words and only felt that this round little fellow was really cute. He shook his head at Lu Xu, having no intention of putting Ba Mei down. “Ba Mei isn’t heavy.”

“Meow…” Ba Mei rubbed its head against Ji Xiunian’s neck when it heard those words, purring extremely happily.

Lu Xu laughed helplessly at this situation. Just as he was about to take Ba Mei back into his arms, he heard someone say very impatiently, “Why are there things like a cat in the studio? This makes me very uncomfortable…”

Following the sound led to Lan Gaojie standing in the doorway of the recording studio, unwilling to even step inside, just pointing at Ba Mei while speaking to the staff.

Although Ba Mei was a cat, it was very obvious that Ba Mei was very smart and had not given anyone any trouble.

The staff were trying to explain that it was Lu Xu’s cat, patiently saying that Ba Mei was very gentle. “It’s very smart, it won’t affect the filming.”

Proving their point, Ba Mei entered the recording studio and sat in the audience seats to nap. Only when Lu Xu was free during dress rehearsal would Ba Mei go up to look for him. The rest of the time, Ba Mei would quietly sit in wait. If it weren’t for everyone wanting to gather around the cat to pet it, Ba Mei wouldn’t be disturbing anything at all.

However, Lan Gaojie didn’t even bother listening to the explanations the staff gave, he only objected impatiently, “What show allows animals into the recording studio? I’m allergic to cats. I won’t be able to film like this at all.”

It was common to have allergies to cats. Lan Gaojie wasn’t an exception.

Taking into consideration the health of the trainees, the staff ended up going up to Lu Xu to talk to him about taking Ba Mei away.

“Xu ge, all of us really like Ba Mei, but we have to ensure the safety of the trainees. Allergies are no small matter, we hope you will understand…”

When confronting Lu Xu, the staff also used a very gentle tone of voice, not wanting to make this good-looking young boy feel bad.

Lu Xu glanced at Ba Mei who was in Ji Xiunian’s embrace, then at the frowning Lan Gaojie standing over there, and smiled very frankly, “Of course we understand.” When he finished speaking, he turned around and pursed his lips at Ba Mei. “Okay, Ba Mei. Go back to the dorm and sleep. When you wake up, I’ll open a can of food for you.”

“Meow.” Hearing the words “can of food”, Ba Mei immediately jumped down from Ji Xiunian’s arms.

It didn’t need any of the staff to carry it either. It used its own elegant little steps to slowly walk towards the door.
