Chapter 42 Family Portrait(1/2)

"Who are you sending a message to?" Bai Xiao looked at Sheng Yao with a fruit fork in his mouth.

"For that Miss Lu, it's the person who keeps a cat." Sheng Yao said.

"Oh. Are you sending her photos of those stray cats?" Bai Xiao came to Sheng Yao's side.

"She is sending it to me. This is the kitten picked up by her Maomao." Sheng Yao flipped his wrist and showed Bai Xiao the screen of the phone.

"So cute. Did you pick it up? Not her Mao Mao?" Bai Xiao's voice suddenly became sharp and soft, and his eyes were crescent.

"No. Her Maomao has been sterilized for a long time, and she is still a male."

"The colors are exactly the same. They look like father and son."

"Well. Do you like cats? There are such tabby cats in the stray cats I picked up recently." Sheng Yao asked.

Bai Xiao shook his head, "I still want to raise a dog. But cats are so cute too~" She simply took Sheng Yao's phone, looked through the cat photos sent by Sheng Yao to Lu Meimei, and Lu Meimei to Sheng Yao, "It's good to have both cats and dogs." She said this and glanced at Sheng Yao.

"It's good to have both cats and dogs." Sheng Yao agreed immediately, "Do you want to raise a cat first?"

Bai Xiao withdrew his gaze, still having a smile on his face, and returned the phone to Sheng Yao, "Let's raise a dog first. Brother Dog, sister Cat, this... Brother Cat, brother Dog, brother is not bad. At first, it was a small one, but then it looked as big as a cat, and in a few months it would grow bigger than a cat... Ah, I also like small dogs, Xi Shi and Pomei are very beautiful..."

Bai Xiao became seriously entangled.

"Boss Le said that keeping pets depends on fate. He knows some cat kennels and dog kennels. At that time, we can go there to choose from to see which kitten or puppy you like. Maybe we will be hit on the way home, and you don't have to worry about it." Sheng Yao said.

Bai Xiao smiled, "That's great." She changed her mind and asked, "You have helped catch stray cats recently, have you ever had a crush on them?"

"Not yet." Sheng Yao shook his head.

When he caught the cat, he was thinking about how to get close to Lu Meimei and deal with Maomao without distraction. When the stray cats saw him, they were like rats and cats, and they all shrank into a ball. They were not so obedient, but directly became sculptures. Sheng Yao was carrying a cat bag, like a shopping bag, and he couldn't feel the cuteness of the little animals at all.

Furthermore, he had seen Maomao's mutation close up, which also gave birth to a psychological shadow on animals like cats.

Sheng Yao looked at Lu Meimei, "Just pick the one you like at that time."

Bai Xiao nodded with a smile, "Okay." He said, "If you keep a cat and a dog, you have to install a pet cage at home. If the cats are, you have to climb a rack, right? And the tools for them to eat and poop. Will it be inconvenient for big dogs?"

"Then keep a puppy."

"But the big dog is also very cute and can lean against them." Bai Xiao sighed after a long voice.

"That's better, let's look at the house first and then raise a dog?" Sheng Yao asked.

Bai Xiao was stunned.

Sheng Yao thought seriously.

The house he lives in now is the one they bought when they got married. The house is good, the location is also good, the transportation is convenient, and the surrounding living facilities are complete. It is just right for small families with a small population. Thirty-five years have passed, some facilities in the community have aging and the house has also become old, but as long as they are redecorated, it is still a good house.

Sheng Yao has no acquaintances in this community, so there is no need to worry about being discovered that she and Bai Xiao are strange, but it is a place close to the city center, with people coming and going. Moreover, living in the city, you have to deal with people. Bai Xiao’s ID card has long been cancelled, and Sheng Yao cannot apply for her new ID card. The mobile phone card she is using now is still handled with Sheng Yao’s ID card. In a short period of time, this is not a problem, but over time, you will inevitably encounter some accidents.

Will it be better to switch to a secluded place with few people? Or is it easier for Bai Xiao to live in a bustling city than the neighborhood villages?

"Are you going to sell our new house?" Bai Xiao asked.

All the thoughts in Sheng Yao's mind were interrupted. He looked up at Bai Xiao and met Bai Xiao's somewhat complicated eyes.

Sheng Yao immediately held Bai Xiao's hand and said, "Shengsheng, that's not what I mean."

"Well. I know. It's actually quite normal to change houses. But... I want to live there for a while." Bai Xiao smiled, "I've been in the clinic since... I've been in the clinic. I haven't seen it outside yet... 35 years, there have been many changes? The short videos I've watched recently are very advanced. Now the drones have shrunk and can be automatically shot with pets."

Sheng Yao listened quietly and held Bai Xiao's hand tightly.

He was a little guilty.

He thought rationally about the present and future of the two, but forgot to care about Bai Xiao's mood, and forgot the most important thing was the hard-won time they spent together. Although Bai Xiao performed as usual, often laughed and talked to him, she was resurrected from the dead and had a gap of thirty-five years. The old monster clinic made Bai Xiao not feel uncomfortable, and the mobile phone he gave Bai Xiao became a window to the outside world, allowing Bai Xiao to see that familiar and strange world.

"Then let's take a slow down on the matter of raising dogs. After we are discharged from the hospital, we will go home first." Sheng Yao said gently.

Bai Xiao nodded, leaned forward, leaned against Sheng Yao, "Go and see your parents first."

Sheng Yao's heart softened and swelled again, "Okay. Let's go see your parents first..."

"Will you be with me?"

"Of course. I will always be with you."

"Yeah." Bai Xiao responded softly, his amber eyes staring at the gray and white walls of the ward without any focus, and a bitter smile hung on the corner of his mouth.

...

Zhou Hai thought for a long time and named the little kitten "Whale Whale". Like Chi Ai, he tried hard to explain his naming theory: "...My name is Haiyang, your name is Rose, Mao Mao's "Mao" is Maosheng and beautiful. The little kitten it picked up will of course grow very well. The largest fish is a whale shark, and the largest mammal is a blue whale. Our little kitten is called "Whale Whale"!"

Lu Meimei was so angry that she laughed, but she commented that the name "Whale Whale" is quite special and cute.

Zhou Hai asked Maomao for his opinion again.

Maomao's green eyes met Zhou Hai's longing sight. It shook its tail, turned its head and licked the little cat's fur. Its snow-white claws pressed the little cat's butt and pushed it in front of Zhou Hai.

Zhou Hai was stunned for a while before he reacted and shouted to the little cat: "Whale whale. Whale whale? Whale whale~"

"Meow--" The little cat screamed in a nipples, stretched out his claws at Zhou Hai, and slapped his big face that was coming to his face.

Zhou Hai said in surprise: "It's up!" He looked at the little cat, called "whale whale" several times, then held the little cat, looked at Lu Meimei, and looked at Maomao, "Is it called "whale whale?"

Lu Meimei nodded with a smile.

Maomao shook his tail and said "meow", as if agreeing.

Zhou Hai carefully held the whale and whale, "Let's take a family photo. Today is the day for whale to name it, so I want to record it. You have taken so many separate photos of it and a photo with Maomao, so should you take a picture of me?"

Without saying a word, Lu Meimei took out her cell phone and leaned on Zhou Hai's shoulder. The two leaned on the sofa. Zhou Hai held the whale between their cheeks.

"Maomao, come quickly." Zhou Hai shouted.

Mao Mao stretched out two claws from behind them, put them on their shoulders, and showed a cat face between them.

"One, two, three - eggplant~" Lu Meimei shouted and pressed the shooting button.

The photo was not taken, but the alarm ring of the mobile phone rang first, or two alarm rings at the same time.

"Oh, it's time to feed." Zhou Hai shouted hurriedly, "I'll make milk powder." He put the whale whale in Maomao's arms and hurried to the kitchen.

Lu Meimei pressed the alarm, took Zhou Hai's cell phone last coffee table, and pressed his alarm.

Zhou Hai came back with a bottle shake after a while, "Whale, it's time to eat."

Lu Meimei sat on the floor, leaning against the sofa, watching Zhou Hai holding the whale and feeding her breasts, and habitually touching Maomao's back with one hand.

Zhou Hai suddenly raised his face and smiled and said, "What are you looking at? Look at me, I am handsome?"

Lu Meimei smiled, "I laughed at you for being stupid. By October, whale whales will not need to be fed."

Zhou Hai was stunned, "Isn't that a good thing?"

"Then you have only worked hard during this period. Last time you were in the pet hospital, you said that you would have to take care of me in October." Lu Meimei touched Zhou Hai's face, tilted her head, and leaned against Maomao's belly.

Mao Mao licked Lu Meimei's hair.

"What's the hard work? Isn't it just like being a father?" Zhou Hai replied immediately, "I can still touch fish when I go to work. You don't know, my colleagues are so envious of whales and are rushing to rua cats. They are also coveting Maomao's beautiful body."

Lu Meimei glanced at Maomao.

Mao Mao just looked up at Zhou Hai, as if rolling his eyes at him.

Lu Meimei's smile deepened.

"When I work overtime, you will be the only one who takes care of the children." Zhou Hai said, "I have agreed in advance now."

"good."

"Does we look like we are novice parents?" Zhou Hai said suddenly.

Lu Meimei laughed out loud, "Is it much harder to take care of a child? You see, Ai Ai is just pregnant and is happy for a week, and she complains endlessly."

"Well, that's right. Human cubs are more troublesome." Zhou Hai said.

The two of them had eyes collided. Zhou Hai's ears were a little red. Lu Meimei's face turned red. However, the silly smile on their faces did not close.

It was not until Maomao called out that Zhou Hai and Lu Meimei came to their senses.

Mao Mao shook his tail, pulled out his body from under Lu Meimei's head, came to Zhou Hai, stretched out his claws and patted the bottle.

Only then did the two humans notice that the whale had finished drinking milk.

"I'm full. Do we whales want poop?" Zhou Hai said in a tone of coaxing the child.

Lu Meimei took the empty bottle from him and went to the kitchen.

Zhou Hai used tissues to assist him in the excretion of whales.

Maomao lay back again, Zhou Hai and Whale reflected in their green eyes. His eyes moved and he looked at Lu Meimei who came out of the kitchen again.

In the cottage, the atmosphere is quiet and warm.

...

There was silence in the dark TV room.

The screen is being played on the LCD TV. The coffee table and sofa in front of the TV are arranged like cheap model rooms.

The doctor knocked his legs on the coffee table, put his back against the sofa, spread his hands on the back of the sofa, and looked straight at the TV screen with his faint blue eyes.

In the picture, a pair of green eyes lit up in the quiet room with the lights turned off.
