Xiao Yu loves things that are pretty and clean. Leon figured this out after living with him for just a few days.
The omega, dressed head to toe in luxurious brands, didn’t show a hint of disdain when faced with a smelly little orange cat. Instead, his eyes filled with tears that spilled over, and his nose turned red and sore. Xiao Yu realized he’d cried several times over the past few days.
No matter, his kitty wouldn’t mind him.
Even if the cat weighed sixteen pounds, it was still held snugly in his arms. The warm scent of orange blossoms enveloped Leon. Inside the soft little cat body, the alpha’s soul trembled slightly, realizing in a flash how to get enough pheromones, how to stir Xiao Yu’s emotions for him endlessly.
To make him truly fall in love with him… wouldn’t that be enough?
Leon whispered in his heart: “I’m sorry, Little Fish.”
He wasn’t sure if he was apologizing for leaving without saying goodbye tonight or for the future when he might disappoint this pure and kind little young master.
There’s no greater joy in the world than regaining something lost.
Xiao Yu took a taxi home with the cat. If it weren’t so late, he would’ve been so excited that he’d almost gone to the family temple to give thanks.
On the way, the cat was unusually quiet.
Xiao Yu smelled a faint scent of rotten vegetables, feeling heartbroken. If he found out who bullied his cat, he’d definitely tear that person’s hair out!
With lips swollen and wet from crying, he gently kissed the flattened big round head of the cat. He chuckled softly:
“How long has it been since I had roasted sweet potatoes? How can you, a little cat, be so considerate?”
The proud and somewhat vain little young master had never actually eaten street food.
With careful hands, he peeled the skin, revealing the golden honeyed flesh inside, its aroma wafting through the air.
He took a bite in front of the cat.
Originally, it was to comfort the little cat, but as soon as he tasted it, Xiao Yu’s face showed a look of amazement, covering his mouth in shock: “Baby, did you get this from a five-star hotel?!”
The cold cat face looked at him, inexplicably a bit silly, and squinted its eyes in satisfaction.
“Purr purr…”
The white mouth curved into a big smile.
A chubby, limited-edition lucky cat.
As a top athlete, Leon’s time, health, and even life were controlled by a complex web of interests.
His diet was naturally strict, and he never ate high-calorie foods.
But when Xiao Yu affectionately held the cat and tried feeding it, the cat gobbled it up.
Leon had been to the Federation many times before.
He knew that people here ate a lot of delicious food during the New Year, with boxes of sugar oranges, roasted chestnuts, and roasted sweet potatoes being common.
The big fat cat smacked its lips and snuggled close to Xiao Yu, feeling warm inside.
Suddenly, he understood why people in the Federation liked celebrating the New Year.
Both the person and the cat were in a sorry state tonight. When they got home, Xiao Yu wanted to bathe with the cat, but was sternly refused.
The omega was utterly confused.
Then he thought, maybe it’s a southern cat, not used to everyone being bare and honest with each other, understandable.
The omega quickly gave himself a full-body clean and care, then bathed the big cat. Luckily, his Little Zhi was obedient and cooperative throughout, and after washing, the wet big cat voluntarily crawled into the drying box.
Xiao Yu looked at the sensible cat with satisfaction, feeling like he could live another ten years.
Having such a good cat, it’s worth it no matter what.
Before bed, the exhausted porcelain doll curled up in the soft bedding, his face glowing with an inner radiance and pinkness after applying essence.
His beauty wasn’t the immature kind.
It was the kind of beauty that comes from a boy transitioning into a young man, like willow branches sprouting, with a sharp chin and slightly upturned eyes, making Xiao Yu look like a spirit that had just taken human form.
Even without makeup, he had an enchanting aura.
He lay there in a disheveled manner, his bare feet hanging off the bed, veins and blood vessels clear as jade, swaying idly.
Leon wanted to grab, bite, and hold them in his arms to lick.
Was it because he turned into a cat?
How could even Xiao Yu’s feet be so tempting?
The omega lazily scrolled through his phone, reassuring the group from the dinner party, occasionally sending a voice message: “Yeah, I found him. If I hadn’t, I would’ve cried myself to death tonight…”
The cat stubbornly curled up in the cardboard box, quietly watching.
For the first time, someone was so worried about him.
Not afraid he’d lose a boxing match and embarrass the sponsors, not afraid he couldn’t afford the penalty, not afraid his injuries were too severe to attend a commercial shoot.
—Just afraid of losing him.
He repeatedly chewed on Xiao Yu’s name in his heart.
“Are you annoying? Why are you calling?”
Suddenly, Xiao Yu’s tone on the phone didn’t sound right. Out of an alpha’s vigilance and possessiveness, Leon instantly felt the man on the other end wasn’t just anyone.
To avoid suspicion, the big truck cat, who never shared a bed with an omega, quickly climbed onto the bed.
The cat paw tentatively stepped over: “Meow?”
A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Yu’s impatient eyes, and he directly pulled the cat into the covers. The voice on the other end of the phone became clearer, obviously a grown alpha!
Who wouldn’t revolve around Young Master Xiao?
But this person was quite rude, not afraid of offending Xiao Yu, blaming him for being obsessed with the cat, while the tiger outside hadn’t been caught yet, he was already running wild.
Seemingly at odds, it actually proved their relationship was unusual.
Xiao Yu hummed and hawed, perfunctorily, then hung up and turned off the lights to sleep.
Who was that?
The cat unhappily glared with round green eyes, furrowing its nose fiercely.
He wouldn’t let Xiao Yu hold him anymore, the golden big bagel perched on the omega’s pillow, almost half-hugging Xiao Yu’s head, cosplaying a beret, smelling the young master’s soft hair fragrance, closing his eyes with a belly full of anger.
This position gave Xiao Yu a great sense of security, and he smiled sweetly: “Goodnight, baby.”
“Meow…”
Until the omega’s shallow, even breathing sounded, Leon woke up.
He remembered the alpha school pants he’d been wearing these days.
Could they belong to the man on the phone?
Xiao Yu didn’t take the little orange cat out today, instead heading to the mall alone.
Leon, with his big round cat face pressed against the glass, watched the glamorous omega drive away.
“Meow!”
A tiger’s roar.
The cats in the cat café looked at the big fat orange with a face full of resentment, their fear somewhat diminished.
They arrogantly wagged their tails, relaxing to play with the cat scratching board.
Hmph.
Thought he was so tough, but he got left behind by his owner.
Xiao Yu saw many rolling LED screens along the way, broadcasting news about a wild Siberian tiger appearing in the downtown area.
He quickly read the announcement while waiting at a red light, sneering.
The police department hadn’t found it yet.
They claimed the tiger wasn’t from the zoo but a wild animal from the mountains on the outskirts of Central City, mistakenly entering the city and would naturally return to its habitat.
Xiao Yu snorted: “Eat your fill and then go back, right?”
His cat café male model flash event was progressing smoothly, and even before the official day, it had already attracted countless people.
To maintain subsequent operations, he had to pull in some investment.
The omega went from the underground parking to the top floor of the mall, heading straight to a Japanese restaurant he was familiar with. After a few words, he came out with a smile on his face, looking like things went better than expected.
In a good mood, Xiao Yu leisurely took the escalator down floor by floor, catching a glimpse of a new store on the second floor. Many people passed by mysteriously, glancing in, then walking away with embarrassed smiles.
What?
A handsome guy dancing naked?
The omega hurried over to see.
Only to find it was a sizable adult store. He immediately spotted the Russian Giant Dior, wondering how something could be so enormous. Was it real?
His calm and beautiful face instantly turned red, showing a bit of a tough side when flustered.
He thought of that damn wild Russian!
Looks so proper, but secretly does dirty things.
Xiao Yu was too pretty, naturally attracting admirers, and with his pheromones leaking, the best solution was to find an alpha to mark him. Inevitably, people suspected he changed boyfriends frequently.
In reality, his life was bland, only occasionally drinking himself to sleep.
The omega blushed and wanted to leave, but his steps halted.
A competitive spirit suddenly ignited in his heart, and he turned around, storming in.
If that stinky Russian could play around, why couldn’t he take a look?
Perhaps because of that perverted alpha, Xiao Yu wandered around, his gaze drifting back to the thing he saw earlier.
“Sir, would you like an introduction?”
The staff, professionally trained, were highly accepting.
Seeing this guest, beautiful as a jade sculpture, with a slightly red face and a cute, hesitant look, the staff smiled and picked it up, pressing the switch—
Buzz buzz buzz!
Almost flung it in Xiao Yu’s face.
“This model is specially designed according to the size of Slavic alphas, with vibration, heating, and telescopic functions, plus remote AI control.”
In his mind, the light-haired, green-eyed alpha matched with this thing!
Help.
The omega’s eyes darted around, even his soft, porcelain-white earlobes turned blood red. He’d never been so embarrassed buying something…
Wait.
He didn’t say he wanted to buy this.
Xiao Yu took a deep breath, pretending to be calm, pointing to a nearby skimpy lingerie set, finally finding a place for his gaze to land, fixing on the orange-red faux fur fox tail.
“I-I was looking at this.”
The staff finally put down the dirty thing, and Xiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
He had to admit, if he got old, he’d definitely fall for those shady health product sales pitches.
Even if he couldn’t use this barely-there outfit, he was still drawn to its bold and daring design.
If it could be designed as everyday wear, it would instantly become a new hit among the red-blooded and blue-blooded.
Xiao Yu waved his small hand: “Wrap it up.”
The staff smiled broadly, about to leave when called back, seeing the omega awkwardly say: “That thing earlier… I’ll take it home to study.”
