Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Training Her Like a Dog??? Yan Luoxi Is About to Explode

「Evening, seven o’clock sharp.」

Gu Yizhou returned to his apartment complex.

By now, lights were on in every home throughout the complex.

The slightly damp air carried the occasional scent of home-cooked meals.

"CLICK~"

In front of apartment 305, Gu Yizhou took out his key and opened the door.

"Xiaobai, Daddy’s home~"

He called out habitually as soon as he opened the door.

Yan Luoxi, who was lying on the sofa, lifted her little head to glance at him before looking away again.

In truth, she had known he was at the door long before he came in.

But she ignored him.

’I can’t just go and greet him at the door, can I?’

’Wouldn’t that make me a little pet waiting for its master to come home?’

’I, Yan Luoxi, would never do something so humiliating!’

Modu had officially entered winter. The days were short, the nights were long, and darkness fell quickly.

Without the lights on, you couldn’t see a thing.

"FLICK~"

Gu Yizhou turned on the living room lights.

The apartment was instantly flooded with light.

Not used to the sudden brightness, Yan Luoxi instinctively squinted.

He glanced at the patch of white on the sofa, and confirming that Xiaobai was home, Gu Yizhou’s mood lifted immensely.

’She didn’t run away!’

’This silly little cat has been so well-behaved lately!’

’I’ll cook her some shrimp tonight as a special treat,’ Gu Yizhou thought to himself.

After changing his shoes and casually hanging his jacket on the rack behind the door, Gu Yizhou quickly walked over to the sofa.

He scooped the little white cat up in one motion.

Yan Luoxi was already used to his scummy behavior, so she let him pick her up without moving a muscle.

However, she had still underestimated just how much of a scumbag Gu Yizhou could be.

She watched as Gu Yizhou lowered his head and buried his face in her belly, taking a deep huff.

’Damn, she smells so good!’

’Ah, bliss~!’

After getting his cat-huffing fix, Gu Yizhou contentedly set her aside and said with a smile, "Xiaobai, did you miss Daddy today?"

Yan Luoxi: "..."

She shot Gu Yizhou a look of disdain.

Although she was incredibly shy on the inside, she didn’t protest out loud anymore.

It couldn’t be helped.

When you’re constantly being huffed by a scummy guy like this, you eventually go numb.

Seeing Xiaobai ignore him, Gu Yizhou just shook his head slightly, not minding it.

"Xiaobai, Daddy’s in a good mood today. I’m going to order some takeout, and then I’ll cook you some shrimp as an extra treat!" Gu Yizhou announced.

With that, he picked up his phone and started ordering takeout for himself.

’Happy?’

Yan Luoxi peeked at him, a little puzzled.

’Is he happy because of that two-thousand-yuan bonus?’

She thought about it. ’That has to be the only reason.’

’Scummy guy! Such a money-grubber! Hmph!’ she complained to herself.

But when she remembered that the scummy guy had treated her to a meal today and hadn’t given that girl his contact information in the end, Yan Luoxi’s mood improved considerably.

Even though she was the one who had dragged Gu Yizhou away.

’But the end result is the same, isn’t it?’

At this thought, she held her tail high and sidled up to Gu Yizhou’s thigh, rubbing against him a few times.

’Scummy guy.’

’This is your reward.’

Yan Luoxi felt incredibly shy. This was the first time she had ever actively rubbed her body against Gu Yizhou. The feeling was completely different from when she had been forced to put on an act before.

’Of course...’

’I’m only being this proactive today because the scummy guy actually behaved well for once.’

’Normally, I would never take the initiative to rub up against him.’

’Otherwise, wouldn’t we really just be a master and his pet?’

’That’s something I could never, ever accept.’

’I’m not a real cat, after all.’

Just as Yan Luoxi’s thoughts were running wild, Gu Yizhou reacted with some surprise.

Seeing Xiaobai proactively rubbing against him, he laughed and said, "Xiaobai, you little glutton. Are you that eager to eat some shrimp?"

"MEOW~!"

Hearing this, Yan Luoxi couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him.

’Scummy guy. You’re the little glutton! Seriously!’ she grumbled to herself.

Seeing her meow at him, Gu Yizhou reached out to pet her little head. "Alright, be good, Xiaobai. As soon as Daddy finishes ordering takeout, I’ll go cook the shrimp for you right away, okay?"

...

「A few minutes later.」

Gu Yizhou finished ordering his own dinner and, while he was at it, added an order of live shrimp for the delivery driver to bring as well.

There were still some shrimp left in the fridge from last time, but it was getting late, and thawing them would be a hassle. So, Gu Yizhou figured he might as well just buy a fresh portion of live shrimp.

It wasn’t like he was short on money, anyway.

If Xiaobai couldn’t finish them all, he could just save the leftovers with the ones in the fridge and make braised prawns with them next time.

Gu Yizhou put down his phone and gave Xiaobai’s back a good ruffle. "Alright, Daddy’s done ordering," he said with a smile. "I’ll cook the shrimp for you as soon as they arrive."

After a moment’s thought, he touched the tip of the cat’s nose.

It was still a little dry, but much better than before.

Besides, Xiaobai’s spirits seemed much higher than before. If you didn’t look too closely, you’d think she was completely over her cold.

Gu Yizhou nodded, feeling much more relieved.

"Xiaobai, your cold is almost gone."

He rubbed Yan Luoxi’s little head and said with a smile, "But even though your cold is almost better,

you can’t go sneaking out again, okay? Otherwise, you’ll catch another cold from the freezing weather, and that one won’t be so easy to get over!

You don’t want to go back to the vet for another shot, do you, Xiaobai?"

"MEW~!"

Hearing Gu Yizhou mention getting a shot, Yan Luoxi’s body trembled instinctively.

Ever since she was little, her greatest fears had been getting shots and taking medicine.

That last time at the vet, if Gu Yizhou hadn’t held her down, she would have rather died than get that shot.

Seeing the look of terror on the little white cat’s face, Gu Yizhou knew she had understood him.

So he smiled and said, "Alright, don’t be scared. As long as you’re a good girl, Daddy won’t take you to get any shots. Don’t worry!"

Yan Luoxi shot him a look, not believing a word he said.

’It can’t be helped.’

’You can’t trust the words of a scummy guy!’

’Hmph!’

"Oh, right!"

Gu Yizhou suddenly thought of something and said, "I saw someone say online today that getting more exercise helps you get over a cold faster.

Xiaobai, while we’re waiting for the takeout, how about we play an exercise game?"

’Huh?’

Yan Luoxi froze for a second.

She had no idea what kind of scheme Gu Yizhou was cooking up.

"Xiaobai, this game is very simple. I just throw something, and you run and bring it back to me."

Seeing Xiaobai looking at him with curiosity, Gu Yizhou thought for a moment and added, "Um... actually, it’s just like training a dog."

"?????"

Hearing this, a series of question marks slowly formed on Yan Luoxi’s face?

’He’s going to train me like a dog???’

’Scummy guy.’

’Do you even hear the words coming out of your mouth?????!!!!!!’

Yan Luoxi felt the rage inside her about to explode...
