442: The Mafia King is over the moon

The Mafia King is over the moon

Lihua, the human, was so overwhelmed that she began to cry with their reunion.

"Lihua!"

She hugged her harder, stroking her soft fur. Words couldn't describe how joyous Lihua, the human, felt.

Words also couldn't describe how furious Lihua, the cat, felt right now as she was being squeezed. Lihua was hugging her as if she was hugging a soft toy, all tight and squishy.

You dumb human! You wanna kill me? You are choking me! Don't murder this Queen!

*Meoowww*

She hissed and struggled in her arms. Lihua, the human, sniffled and loosened her grip. "I am sorry. I was too excited."

Lihua, the cat, was gasping for air.

Don't commit animal murder in your excitement you fool!

She almost raised her paw to scratch her but held it back.

Wei observed their interaction and beamed to know that Lihua really liked his surprise. She glanced back at him, and it was then when she noticed the light scars on his face.

"Your face…"

Wei touched his cheek. "Oh they are just scratch marks from her."

Lihua, the human, was speechless. "Why?"

"She was sleeping, and I brought her here," he said with an unfazed expression.

"..."

*Meowww*

Lihua, the cat, narrowed her green eyes and hissed at him.

Yes, you disturbed my precious sleep! You ought to be punished!

Lihua, the human, patted her back. "You shouldn't have disturbed her."

Good, at least somebody understands my pain!

Wei pursed his lips. "I just wanted to make you happy. I know you would after meeting her again," he softly smiled.

Lihua, the cat, was dumbfounded.

Who cares about anybody's happiness, you dumb human!? The only thing you should care about is my sleep and food!

Lihua, the human, saw the fierce expression on the cat's face and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Lihua, the cat, then suddenly looked at Lihua, the human's belly. She leaned her face and softly meowed. She nudged her nose on her stomach, twice.

"Haha, you feel the child, right?" She brightened.

Lihua, the cat, was silent and simply stared at her belly. She raised her paw and softly touched her belly again.

*Meowww*

Then the cat refused to look at them anymore. It was as if she got somebody to talk to, and she had focused her attention on Lihua, the human's belly.

Lihua, the human, found it really adorable and laughed. She sat on the couch, cradling the cat in her lap.

Wei hesitated a little but then finally sat beside her too. Then it was silent. Lihua didn't know what to do. Wei had urged her to spend this night with him but how?

"W-What do you want to do…?"

Wei blinked his eyes. "Nothing. You can play with Lihua. I will just watch you."

Her mouth twitched.

"For the entire night?"

"Yes."

"You will just get bored doing that."

"I don't get bored watching you. I can keep looking at you forever," he nodded.

Her heart thumped and skipped a beat. There it was, Wei's smooth and butter-like flirting.

*Meowww*

Lihua was thinking of what to do next when at the same time, her stomach grumbled. She felt embarrassed. They already had their dinner at the club, but here her stomach was growling with hunger again.

But she was surprised.

"Hehe you meowed at the same time. Did you understand that he is hungry?"

Lihua, the cat, harrumphed.

"...she…" Wei low-key tried to correct the pronoun. Lihua, the human, glared at him, and he said nothing more.

"I will make something for you," Wei seemed excited. "Wait for me."

He was already gone. She looked at the cat and whispered, "What do you think it is? A boy or a girl?"

Lihua, the cat, stared at her eager expression.

Will you understand even if I tell you?

The cat just ignored her and rested her head against her belly. She also stuck her furry body as if trying to protect the child from the cold.

Lihua, the human, got emotional. "You are such a good cat! How did you bear to live with that evil doctor until now? You two are so different!"

Wei served the meal on a plate. "Here."

It was a light soup and sweet and sour pork topped with lots of vegetables. Lihua immediately gobbled upon it as if she had never eaten anything. The fragrance alone made her hungrier.

Wei widened his eyes and burst into a soft chuckle. He had read that pregnant women can either lose their appetite or gain it. He was happy to know that Lihua came in the second category. He would never want to see her not eat anything and get thinner.

He saw the corner of her lips get slightly stained with the sauce. With his thumb, he brushed it off. She stiffened and recalled their ramen date.

She put the plate back. "Thank you…"

He nodded.

Lihua then thought about it and got up. She put Lihua, the cat, on the couch.

*Meowww*

"Where are you going?" He anxiously asked.

"One minute."2

She returned a minute later with a first aid box in her hand. Wei widened his eyes. "A-are you hurt somewhere? You didn't tell me. Wait, I will call Mingshen-"

"No!" She sighed, "I didn't bring it for me. It's for your face. You got scratch marks...it won't be good if you let them be like that."

She took out an ointment and handed it to him. "Apply this on your face."

He felt his heart flutter with her concern. He was about to take the ointment tube when he paused in between. He bit his lip and nervously peeked at her. "Will you...do it for me?"

Lihua was quiet for a moment. She moved a little closer to him to help him out. Wei was over the moon now. He obediently sat before her.

Lihua took some cream and gently applied it on his scars. "...Don't do that again or Lihua will really run away from you. You also got hurt."

Wei said, "I brought her to make you happy. These scratches are nothing. If it's to bring a smile on your lips, I will happily give up my life too."
