Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie-Chapter 933: The One Held Closest to the Heart

Lu Jing came over for the night without saying a word, what’s this all about?

And Lu Jing, infuriating as ever, showed concern for her, "If you’re tired, go ahead and sleep first. I’ll take care of Little Mirror."

Zhang Lingying couldn’t possibly let him, a novice who had never cared for a pet, take care of the still fragile Little Mirror. Since Lu Jing refused to leave, she had to stay in the living room and accompany him in watching Little Mirror sleep.

The sleeping Little Mirror was very well-behaved, curled up into a little ball, looking somewhat lacking in security.

Its pink little nose was a bit damp, occasionally nuzzling towards Lu Jing, using his body warmth to stay warm.

"Are you worried about Little Mirror?" Lu Jing caught Zhang Lingying’s uneasy gaze and suddenly opened his mouth to speak.

Zhang Lingying hesitated for a few seconds, then gently nodded.

Perhaps it was the quiet of the night that magnified people’s fears and anxieties. Zhang Lingying couldn’t help but let down her guard against Lu Jing, softly saying, "The doctor said Little Mirror is too small, already hard to raise. It’s been hungry for a long time, severely malnourished, and has a slight cold... Although it has a strong desire to survive, I’m not sure if it will really pull through."

It was Zhang Lingying’s first time raising a pet.

Encountering Little Mirror was a kind of fate.

"It will be fine."

Lu Jing gently changed his sitting position, moving closer to Zhang Lingying. The Little Mirror sleeping in his arms sneezed, glanced at him with its feline eyes, and then went back to sleep.

This time, instead of curling up again, it relaxed completely, rolling over into a carefree, sprawling position in Lu Jing’s arms.

Lu Jing tucked the blanket around it, unable to resist a smile, "You little rascal, your mom and dad are worried you won’t grow up well, yet you’re sleeping so soundly."

Zhang Lingying was also amused by Little Mirror’s behavior.

Her whole body relaxed as she reached for a book from the coffee table and continued reading from the bookmarked spot.

She was reading, while Lu Jing was on his phone, dealing with accumulated work, occasionally stealing glances at her.

Though the living room was quiet, the atmosphere was harmonious.

When Lu Jing finished replying to several important emails and looked up, he found Zhang Lingying asleep on the sofa, her book fallen beside her...

Little Mirror, who had been asleep for quite a while, woke up then, looking around with its pretty big eyes, seemingly hungry and preparing to find Zhang Lingying.

"Shh—" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Lu Jing made a shushing gesture towards it, lowering his voice to say, "Don’t wake up mom, I’ll make you some milk."

Lu Jing could cook; his basic life skills were excellent, so taking care of Little Mirror for a meal was no problem at all.

After feeding Little Mirror, he placed it on the cat climber to play by itself, then turned and carried the sleeping Zhang Lingying into the bedroom.

Zhang Lingying slept deeply, not waking up at all.

After tucking her in, Lu Jing sat quietly by her bedside, watching her peaceful sleeping face.

Knowing Zhang Lingying was not yet willing to accept him, he just wanted to stay with her a little longer.

After a while, the Little Mirror, previously placed in the living room by Lu Jing, tiptoed to the doorway, seized a moment when Lu Jing wasn’t looking, and leaped onto the bed, snuggling into his arms.

Lu Jing picked it up, rubbed its little head, then placed it under Zhang Lingying’s blanket, instructing it, "Daddy is leaving. You stay here and keep mom company, don’t wake her, okay?"

He stood up, and couldn’t resist leaving a light kiss on her lips.

"Goodnight, sweet dreams."
