The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

After Xuan Mao finished eating the cat noodles and spread the sleeping bag on the clean-looking stone bed, Xu Yiyu did not get in immediately. He just sat on the chair and pulled out Tongzi's update progress bar in front of Xuan Mao and took a look.

"That's good. When I wake up, Tongzi's version update should be finished."

When Xu Yiyu was talking to himself, the black cat's ears were trembling slightly, as if it was receiving the information Xu Yiyu was conveying to it.

When she heard her mention the word "Tongzi", Xu Yiyu didn't know if she had seen it wrong. She seemed to see the pupils of the little guy in front of her narrow for a moment.

Could it be that...it can really understand what I say?

"Mimi, can you understand what I'm saying?"

Xu Yiyu looked at Xuanmao's face and spoke in a low voice.

Unexpectedly, when the little guy heard this question, he had an expression of "what else?" on his face. She even saw him make a very obvious pouting expression.

At that moment, Xu Yiyu felt that his brain was shutting down again.

What, what happened?!

Not long after she arrived at the underground palace, a "considerate" spiritual creature appeared.

No, this is not a dungeon, so why would the developer send down guidance elves on their own?

Ever since she was bound to her own Tongzi, she, Xu, has never experienced anything more magical than the existence of Tongzi.

But today, she saw it.

"Then do you know what the Tongzi I just mentioned is?"

Because he didn't know the soundproofing of the room, Xu Yiyu lowered his voice when asking this question.

This time, Xuan Mao did not respond to the question immediately. Instead, he half-closed his eyes, remained silent for a while as if he was thinking, and nodded with a hesitant expression.

After getting the little guy's answer, Xu Yiyu suddenly missed his own Tongzi who had not returned yet.

She remembered that her own son Tongzi once said that although she could not make her, Xu, understand the language of all species on the blue planet, she herself could understand and communicate with them.

"If that's the case, then when you appeared at the Eight Gates, was it your master who sent you there?"

The black cat was about to nod decisively when it suddenly stopped halfway, probably because it thought of something. The expression on the cat's face became heavier and it slowly shook its head.

Xu Yiyu narrowed his eyes and keenly sensed something was wrong.

The little girl's reaction was so quick, there must be something happening that she didn't understand.

Is it...

She pursed her lips and asked the next question hesitantly.

"Then your master...is he still in this world?"

After hearing this question, Xuan Mao's face showed a complex expression that was difficult to describe in words. It seemed that he didn't want to mention this matter, but also seemed a little uncontrollable sadness.

But after a few seconds, it nodded restrainedly but frankly, and its ears, which had been standing upright, drooped into airplane ears.

After asking this question, Xu Yiyu suddenly felt a little sorry for the little guy in front of him. He immediately shut up awkwardly and raised his hand to slap his mouth twice.

Let you ask random questions! Let you be curious!

The little guy served as your free guide along the way, and this is how you repay him with your mouth?!

Just as Xu Yiyu slapped himself, the black cat, who was obviously in a low mood, suddenly let out a weak cry and jumped off the table.

Just as she was wondering if the little guy was angry with her, the black cat jumped onto her lap.

Then, it stretched out its two front paws and hugged the arm that Xu Yiyu had just used to slap herself.

She felt a slight resistance on her forearm, as if stopping her previous movement.

Somehow, when Xu Yiyu saw the little guy's action, his heart suddenly ached and his eyes became a little hot.

Mr. Xu, what’s wrong with you?

The little guy was hurt by you and still wanted to comfort you because he lost his master. Where was your foresight in dealing with those big shots? Why is he missing now?

Xu Yiyu didn't move again, but the black cat slowly let go of Xu Yiyu's arm, and its green eyes looked straight into her eyes.

For a brief moment, Xu Yiyu almost thought that Black Cat was about to speak.

The black cat's emerald green pupils reflected the firelight in the room. The light seemed to come alive in its eyes, melting into countless flowing colors.

"Meow~"

The black cat let out a soft cry, buried its little face in Xu Yiyu's arms, stretched out its two little front paws, and hugged her very hard.

Xu Yiyu lowered his eyelids and looked at the small figure in his arms for a long time. His clear vision gradually became hazy and he felt a hint of moisture in the corners of his eyes.

She carefully spread out her forearms and held the little guy in her arms, trying hard to suppress the faint sob in her throat.

Maybe he was thinking of Douzi who was far away in China, or maybe he was thinking of the little guy in front of him whose owner was no longer alive. Xu Yiyu couldn't tell what emotion suddenly surged in his heart, and tears suddenly flowed like a broken string, and he couldn't control it.

"Mimi, am I similar to your master?"

When she asked the question in a dull voice, she could clearly feel the warm body in her arms stiffen for a moment, and then soften again after a few seconds.

Xu Yiyu swore that she definitely heard a response so low that it was almost inaudible.

--Um.

It was as if the response was made with great effort; the pronunciation was not very standard and was even a little vague.

But Xu Yiyu could feel that this was the little guy's answer to him.

She gave up her original plan to wash up, casually opened the lid of the outdoor bag, steadily picked up the black cat that had buried its body in her arms, and walked to the stone bed.

The little guy must have transferred his feelings for his original owner to me, which is why he is so close to me among so many members of the treasure hunting team.

"It turns out you're not a greedy cat who gets excited when seeing snacks. I was actually fooled by you before."

When Xu Yiyu sat down in the sleeping bag on the stone bed, the black cat finally raised its face from her arms, looked at her and blinked twice.

"Will you...sleep with me?"

While Xu Yiyu was still wondering if this request was too presumptuous, she caught the little guy nodding his head through her eyes blurred by tears.

However, unlike the black cat's nod, it did not crawl into Xu Yiyu's sleeping bag. Instead, it jumped out of Xu Yiyu's arms lightly, adjusted its body into the most comfortable position, and nestled beside her "pillow" with ease.

Watching its skillful movements, Xu Yiyu was so moved that he was speechless.

Where can I find such a sensible kitten?

Its owner must have saved the cat planet in his previous life, which gave him the opportunity to meet it!

Before getting completely into the sleeping bag, Xu Yiyu took out his cell phone from his coat pocket, which he could only use to check the time. After setting the alarm for 9 a.m. on September 12, he placed the phone on the other side opposite the black cat.

When she thought about waking up tomorrow morning and welcoming Tongzi again after not seeing him for a long time, she couldn't help but smile.

Before Xu Yiyu closed his eyes, he took one last look at the black cat beside his pillow, which was nodding its head sleepily, and whispered something.

"Good night Mimi, I hope I can still see you when I open my eyes tomorrow morning."
