not my cat

Chapter 7

Early in the morning, Zhao Maixun was awakened by the ear-piercing sound of text messages from his mobile phone, and several messages popped up in succession.

"Who would send me a message so early? It wouldn't be some harassing text message..." Zhao Maixun touched the cell phone next to her pillow in wonder, and saw that it was from Ji Jin, so she remembered that she added Ji Jin yesterday. Jin's WeChat.

"Mr. Zhao, are you up yet?"

"Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, haha."

"Look, this is my cat, it's called Daju, but it's fat"

Zhao Maixun walked to the water dispenser, took a glass of water and clicked on the dialog box, saw the message sent by Ji Jin, there was a selfie of her and the kitten below, the cat in the photo was orange and looked a bit fat, the girl hugged the cat , the camera is a bit close to the face, Zhao Maixun found that Ji Jin's eyes are very long and slit, which are typical peach blossom eyes, no wonder she looks affectionate in everything, the photo is taken from an upward angle, but her jawline can still be clearly seen.

"Good morning, classmate Ji."

"It seems that your kitten is very reluctant to take pictures with you."

Zhao Maixun received a reply in less than two seconds after sending it.

"Whoever said it, whoever said it, it's not bad if I don't dislike it because it's so fat."

Zhao Maixun looked at it and laughed. This is the first time she has received holiday blessings from others. In the past, they were all system blessings from mobile companies and the like, but this is also very good. She thinks at least someone Wish her a happy holiday.

"Let's not talk about it now, Mr. Zhao, my mother has asked me to work, so I will see you later."

Zhao Maixun looked at the addition of two crying emojis at the end of the line, and thought it was a bit cute.

"Okay, let's go."

Zhao Maixun walked to the balcony and the sun was very gentle. She looked at the old lady opposite who was preparing dinner, with a happy smile on her face. It should be prepared for the family reunion tonight. Home, for Zhao Maixun, is it? She doesn't know what kind of concept it is, since she can remember, she doesn't seem to have experienced the warmth of home.

"Ji Jin, be a bit more sloppy, your dad will come back tonight, let's clean up all of this." Xie He urged Ji Jin while dragging the ground.

"Oh... right away" Ji Jin put down his phone, picked up a broom and started working.

It seemed that the sweeping was almost done, Ji Jin began to sit on the sofa to rest.

"By the way, call your sister and ask her if she will come back?" Xie He suddenly remembered.

"Call right now" Ji Jin took his mobile phone and made a video call to Ji Zhinan.

"Hey, what's the matter?" The call was quickly connected.

"Sister, are you coming back today?" Ji Jin asked.

"I can't buy a ticket here, so I shouldn't be able to go back today."

"Zhi Nan, how can you spend the Mid-Autumn Festival alone?" Xie He heard that Ji Zhi Nan didn't plan to come back and walked to the camera and said something.

"No, Mom, and Lin Chu." Ji Zhinan moved the camera.

"Hello, Auntie, Ji Jin, how are you?" Lin Chu greeted them.

"Then I can rest assured that Lin Chu is with me." Xie He felt relieved when he saw Lin Chu in the camera.

"Then I'll hang up on mom first. I'll go shopping with Lin Chu later. Ji Jin should listen to mom when I'm at home." Ji Zhinan hung up the phone.

In Ji Jin's impression, this girl named Lin Chu is one year older than her sister. The first time I saw her was in elementary school. At that time, Ji Zhinan was already in high school, and Lin Chu would often come to play at home every time she came. They always bring her snacks, and she also likes this big sister very much, thinking she is gentle and beautiful.

Ji Jin and Xie He have been busy until the afternoon, cleaning every corner of the house, and the sun has set, so it's time to prepare dinner.

"Mom, what are we having for dinner tonight?" Ji Jin asked while touching his flat stomach.

"I ate crayfish today, haven't you eaten for a long time?" Xie He looked at Ji Jin's greedy expression and smiled.

"Wow! Then I'll help you too," Ji Jin said as he rolled up his sleeves.

The two of them didn't know how long they had been busy in the kitchen until there was a sound of the door opening.

"I'm back." Ji Chuanrong stood at the door with big bags and small bags.

"Dad! You're back, I'll help you get it" Ji Jin hadn't seen Ji Chuanrong for a long time, so he was very excited.

"Our Xiaojin is still so obedient." Ji Chuanrong smiled with satisfaction.

"Wash your hands and get ready for dinner." Xie He came out of the kitchen and said.

A family of three sitting around the dining table eating, the picture is very warm.

"How is our Xiaojin studying recently?" Ji Chuanrong asked after taking a sip of his wine.

"Of course it's awesome. By the way, Dad, how long have you been playing with me?" Ji Jin suddenly stopped his chopsticks and asked.

"Well...it may be a long time, after today I will go back to the team." Ji Chuanrong also wanted to spend more time with Ji Jin, but he really couldn't spare the time.

"Okay, okay, don't make things difficult for your dad." Xie He patted Ji Jin's head.

Ji Jin knows that Ji Chuanrong is very busy, she will not be as noisy as she was when she was a child, and she is sensible.

After dinner, Ji Jin returned to her room, and she sent Zhao Maixun the photo of the crayfish on the dining table just now.

"I don't know what she's doing now, what's for dinner?"

In the afternoon, Zhao Maixun suddenly felt a cramping pain in her stomach. She knew that her old problem was happening again, so she fell asleep after taking a few medicines. Maybe it was because of the medicine's effect that she slept so deeply that she didn't know that every household outside Sitting around having a reunion dinner together.

Ji Jin waited for a long time and did not wait for Zhao Maixun to reply. Ji Jin was a little disappointed and guessed that she might have fallen asleep.

Ji Jin took the tablet to read her comics, and found that there were a lot of comments below. She picked up a pen and wanted to draw Zhao Maixun who made dumplings yesterday.

"Everyone seems to like this comic very much." Ji Jin was a little overjoyed.

After finally finishing drawing the manga, Ji Jin looked at the alarm clock and it was past two o'clock. She yawned and turned off the computer to go to sleep.

Suddenly the phone lights up, it is a text message from Zhao Maixun.

"Crayfish, it looks delicious, did you make it yourself?"

"That's right, Mr. Zhao hasn't slept yet?"

"I just woke up, I didn't feel well in the afternoon, so I fell asleep and have been sleeping until now." Zhao Maixun was a little surprised that Ji Jin hadn't slept yet at this point.

"Well...then what did you have for dinner?"

"I shouldn't have eaten anything..."

"It's okay if you don't eat, aren't you hungry?" Ji Jin was a little worried about Zhao Maixun.

“Actually ok, not too hungry”

"Have you ever eaten cold noodles?"

Zhao Maixun thought for a while, "I haven't eaten."

"Then I'll take you to eat"

"Now?" Zhao Maixun was a little surprised, it was already very late.

"Correct."

"No, it's too late, let's try another day." Zhao Maixun was worried that Ji Jin would go out so late, and his parents would not agree.

"It's late, I'm already out, I'll go downstairs in 10 minutes." Ji Jin put on his coat and went out.

"This child..." Zhao Maixun sighed in his heart, but he was still a little worried about Ji Jin.

She got dressed and tidied up and went downstairs.

"Didi." The horn of an electric car came from not far away.

"Here." Ji Jin waved at her.

"Can you still ride an electric bike?" Zhao Maixun looked at Ji Jin.

"Of course, get in the car." Ji Jin helped Zhao Maixun put on his helmet.

"Then let's go!" Ji Jin started the car.

It was still a bit cold in the late autumn night, not to mention sitting on an electric car, but Ji Jin's body was strong enough to shield Zhao Mai from the wind.

"Hurry up, I'm going to speed up." Ji Jin was about to speed up.

Zhao Maixun held Ji Jin's clothes tightly, but the sudden acceleration caught Zhao Maixun off guard and subconsciously hugged Ji Jin's waist.

She just wanted to let go, but was caught by a hand, "Since you've already hugged her, don't let go, it's safer."

Zhao Maixun didn't speak, she suddenly felt that her body temperature was rising rapidly, and she seemed to be red from neck to ear.

"Fortunately, Ji Jin can't see it."

When the two arrived at their destination, Ji Jin parked the car and took Zhao Maixun to the store she used to go to in junior high school.

"Uncle Yang, here are two roasted cold noodles," Ji Jin said to the boss.

"Xiao Jin, it's been a long time since I've seen you grow so tall, who is this?" Uncle Yang looked at Zhao Mai who was standing next to Ji Jin and asked.

"My teacher," Ji Jin replied.

"Hello." Zhao Maixun smiled politely and nodded.

"Then you guys sit inside, it will be ready soon." Uncle Yang also smiled.

"The environment here is a bit rough, don't you mind." Ji Jin found a seat and sat down with Zhao Maixun.

"No, I think it's fine." Zhao Maixun said looking at the surrounding environment.

"Do you come here often?" Zhao Maixun asked

"Junior high school often comes here, but high school seldom comes because it is a little far away. You probably don't have cold noodles in the south. Our taste is really amazing. If you don't believe me, you will try it later." Ji Jin poured Zhao Maixun a glass Water said.

"Here we come, eat it while it's hot." Uncle Yang brought the roasted cold noodles and put them on the table.

"Quick, quick, try it!" Ji Jin handed a pair of chopsticks to Zhao Maixun.

"Well, it's delicious!" It was a taste that Zhao Maixun had never tasted before, and there was an indescribable feeling.

"Not bad, trust me." Ji Jin patted his chest.

It was time for them to go home after eating the cold noodles. Zhao Maixun checked his phone and it was almost four o'clock.

"Get in the car." Ji Jin took the helmet and prepared to put it on for Zhao Maixun.

Suddenly, she found that something seemed to be on the corner of her mouth, so she took out a tissue and prepared to wipe it off for her.

It was this movement that made Zhao Maixun subconsciously cover his face with his arms.

Realizing what he did just now, Zhao Maixun put down his hand and felt a little embarrassed.

"That... there's something here, wipe it off?" Ji Jin also put down the thing that was hanging in the air, pointed to the corner of his mouth, and handed Zhao Maixun a tissue.

"Okay... okay" Zhao Maixun took the tissue.

"Ready to go!" Ji Jin started the electric car.

As the temperature began to drop sharply in the early morning, Zhao Maixun was blown by the wind and sneezed.

"Is it cold?" Ji Jin took off his coat and asked Zhao Maixun to put it on.

"No, you'll catch a cold if you put it on." Zhao Maixun didn't wear it because she knew Ji Jin would be cold too.

"I won't catch a cold. Don't worry. I'm in good physical condition. Did you forget that I didn't catch a cold when I came back from the rain last time? You're such a small one. If you catch a cold, you'll be in trouble. I'm wearing long sleeves, don't worry." All right, but if you're afraid that I'll catch a cold, hug me." Ji Jin smiled, and that's what she wanted.

Knowing that he couldn't beat Ji Jin, Zhao Maixun had no choice but to put it on obediently.

Ji Jin's clothes are so big that Zhao Maixun can't see his palms when he wears them.

The street was empty at four o'clock in the morning, and she hugged Ji Jin like this, as if greedy for the warmth of her body.

"I hope, the road will be longer... and longer..."

Send Zhao Maixun to the door, and it's time for Ji Jin to go home.

"The moon is so bright." Ji Jin looked up at the moon.

"Yes, it's so bright and beautiful." Zhao Maixun also sighed.

"Be careful when you go home, drive slowly, and send me a message when you get home." Zhao Maixun took off his coat and handed it to Ji Jin.

"Don't worry, you go upstairs quickly, it's too cold outside." Ji Jin told her to go upstairs quickly because she was afraid that she would catch a cold.

"Okay, then I'll go up first." Zhao Maixun looked at the girl in front of him, her eyebrows seemed to have a different temperament from her age, and she seemed a little less childish than her peers.

They said goodbye to each other. On the way home, Ji Jin was still thinking about Zhao Maixun's subconscious action just now. It was obviously an action to protect himself when he was hit by others, but it seemed to be her habitual action so proficient that it made people feel distressed.

Ji Jin remembered Zhao Maixun's parents that day, her dull eyes, what unknown story did she have in her body?
