The phone was pressed to my ear, and there was a long, heavy silence in the receiver.

My uncle was silent over there.

He values dignity the most and is a man of principles. He should have stood up and angrily denounced He Jingyuan for his absurdity.

But at this time nothing was done.

The uncle thought of He Jingyuan's parents, his elder brother and sister-in-law who almost ignored their son, and his powerless emotions were churning wildly.

A child who had been neglected by his father and mother and had been raised almost as a free-range child, now suddenly told him that he liked men...

As an uncle, he has no right or qualifications to interfere or scold.

"You..." My uncle's voice was filled with confusion. "You understand everything..."

"Yes." He Jingyuan said without hesitation, "I've thought it through."

My uncle was having a very hard time digesting this answer which weighed more than a thousand pounds.

Perhaps because they have an unstable eldest brother taking the lead, this generation of the He family does not attach much importance to blood ties.

Since He Jingyuan's grandparents passed away, family members have rarely reunited.

Only my uncle is still stubbornly trying to mend the relationship.

He has always believed that there should be no irreconcilable hatred between parents and children.

Even though his wife and daughter didn't understand, he still stubbornly wanted He Jingyuan to reconcile with his parents.

But when he learned about that incident some time ago, my uncle's heart wavered for the first time.

The other party has no intention of getting along well, so how can this be considered a reconciliation?

He rarely complained about his elder brother and sister-in-law.

The first time he got angry, his parents had just left and He Jingyuan was ridiculed by his blind relatives as an "unwanted child."

The second time is now.

After several minutes, he spoke again with difficulty, his voice almost weak, asking for confirmation: "Is it the boy you live with?"

"Yes." He Jingyuan's voice was calm. "I've already decided on him. From now on, I'm going to bring him out to meet all my relatives and friends. I don't want to hide him."

These words were like a heavy hammer, completely shattering my uncle's last thought.

It was not until this moment that he felt for the first time that he might really be wrong.

My nephew just likes men, which is not a big deal.

The real problem lies with his parents who are practically non-existent - what they did really touched his bottom line.

Looking at it from another angle, He Jingyuan's willingness to tell me this meant that he was still willing to be close to his uncle.

Suddenly, a hand reached out and snatched the phone away. My aunt said directly without question, "Bring him with you to dinner next time."

She paused and said, "We have something more important to tell you."

He Jingyuan: "Okay."

Important things?

He hung up the phone, feeling strangely relieved that everything was over.

When I pushed open the glass door and returned to the bedroom, Yunyun was already lying on the bed.

The tablet was resting loosely on his legs, the screen still on, showing the familiar fishing game interface.

The kitten nodded its head and its eyelids drooped heavily. It was obviously very sleepy, but still waiting for him.

He Jingyuan walked over and gently pulled the tablet away from his legs.

The screen went dark.

Yunyun was awakened by this subtle movement and opened her eyes dazedly: "Why did you come back just now?"

"My uncle came to see me for something, and we talked for a long time."

He Jingyuan put the tablet aside: "Also, my uncle is inviting me to dinner in a few days, and I want to take you with me. Do you still remember your aunt? Although she is fierce, she teased you with a mobile phone pendant last time..."

"Oh..." Yunyun was not fully awake yet, she just responded instinctively, and her eyelids began to twitch again.

She buried her head directly in He Jingyuan's arms and rubbed against him.

He Jingyuan looked at his defenseless appearance, picked up Yunyun, and quickly kissed him on the forehead.

Very light, separates at the touch of a finger.

The little orange cat's strong sleepiness was mostly dispelled by this sudden kiss.

Yunyun suddenly opened her eyes and looked straight at He Jingyuan, her cheeks turning red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He just frowned slightly, his voice carrying a barely perceptible hint of coquettishness: "Can't you ask first before kissing me? They all say to respect seniors, but you've rarely respected me."

He Jingyuan's heart was burning, and he almost couldn't help laughing. His expression became serious, and his tone was as if he was performing some solemn ceremony: "Okay, Senior Yunyun, may I kiss you?"

Yunyun didn't expect him to do this suddenly.

But he is a very polite little kitty after all.

He Jingyuan asked so politely, and he also answered politely:

"Please kiss."

He Jingyuan leaned over again, and his warm lips fell on Yunyun's forehead, staying there for a little longer than before.

An unfamiliar throbbing feeling suddenly exploded in the kitten's heart. Yunyun felt as if something had grasped her tightly and then suddenly let go.

The blood rushed to his head, and it was incredibly hot.

He subconsciously shrank into the quilt, leaving only his eyes exposed.

Something is not right with the sea crucian carp.

When he was first brought home, the man and the cat treated each other with respect, but Haiyu was very reserved and refused to hug him or kiss him.

In the end, it was Yunyun who forced him to do so.

But it was just that one moment, and afterwards I basically just kissed Yunyun in kitten form.

Recently, He Jingyuan has been kissing his human form more and more frequently.

Something wasn't quite right with me either.

Yunyun thought.

My cheeks were burning, and this time it didn't seem like it was because of the sea crucian carp.

He Jingyuan looked at him with half of his face buried in the quilt, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

He reached out his hand, rubbed Yunyun's head, and said in a soft voice: "That's it, good night, senior baby."

Yunyun didn't say anything, but just blinked at him slowly through the quilt.

…

A few days later, taking advantage of the fact that there was no class in the afternoon, Fang Die invited He Jingyuan and Yunyun to the milk tea shop in the school early in the morning.

Yuncheng University is so big that it is difficult to see each other unless you meet specifically.

As soon as she sat down, Yunyun noticed that Fang Die seemed a little darker than before.

But he was full of energy and as soon as they met, he generously pushed a big bag of snacks in front of Yunyun.

"Senior, please try it." Fang Die's eyes lit up and she was overly enthusiastic.

Yunyun has no resistance to snacks, especially this kind of feeding.

He glanced at He Jingyuan, opened a bag of potato chips without hesitation, and ate them happily with a crunch.

"I've been so exhausted from helping Huahua lose weight these days." Fang Die took out her cell phone and couldn't wait to show the two of them her recent "results".

The tabby cat in the photo has lost a lot of weight, but its face looks full of resentment.

He Jingyuan: ...

He had heard that Fang Die would talk about flowers with everyone she met recently.

Today I see...

Her tone was filled with doting: "Let me tell you, Huahua is an absolutely wonderful cat! So obedient, so clingy, so soft, I won't let go once I hold her! Who says tabby cats are mean and will abandon their owners? That's all prejudice! Huahua is simply an angel!"

Yunyun paused while stuffing her potato chips into her mouth:?

who?

So obedient, clingy, and soft?

Is this still the Huahua he knows?

"It's true. If you don't believe me, just watch it." Fang Die immediately took out the video from her phone and opened it, then walked in front of the two of them.

In the video, she was holding the shiny tabby cat, kissing its head and ears fiercely, and laughing silly "hehehe" sounds from her mouth.

Huahua was breathing fiercely at her at first, but her eyes gradually changed, with a very pure dullness and clarity.

Yunyun was so engrossed in watching that she forgot to chew her potato chips.

Humans are so perverted.

Sea crucian carp is very abnormal, and square butterfly fish is also very abnormal.

Fang Die put away her phone with a lingering feeling, sighing with emotion, with the expression of someone who has experienced it: "So, in the end, we still have to take the initiative. Forced love on kittens is the best. They are stupid. They will only respond if we release our love first."

Yunyun frowned and retorted: "Cats are not stupid, they are smart."

This is a serious insult to one's intelligence!

He Jingyuan was sitting next to them. He turned his head and glanced at Yunyun when he heard the words.

He picked up the milk tea thoughtfully without saying a word.

Fang Die ignored Yunyun's protest and quickly returned her attention to the business.

Seeing that Yunyun had almost finished the snacks on the table, Fang Die cleared her throat and put on an extremely bright smile: "Senior, are the snacks delicious?"

The shortest one is the one who eats people.

Yunyun hesitated for a moment. Although the snacks tasted really good, he still remembered Fang Die saying that the kitten was stupid.

Yunyun swallowed the last bite of the snack with dignity and said vaguely, "It's okay."

Fang Die's eyes lit up, and she clasped her hands together and pleaded, "Then could you please do me a small favor?"

This unknown senior, whose name and major were unknown, had become a non-staff member of the Cat Association. Fang Die had to act before anyone else, fearing he would be reserved. "Senior, can you wear those animal ears and tail again, just for one day?"

Yunyun's eyes widened instantly, realizing that she had fallen into a trap.

The kitten quickly threw away the empty snack bag in his hand: "...Can I spit out the snacks now?"

He Jingyuan was extremely alert: "What do you want to see Senior?"

"No, senior!" Fang Die bowed even more devoutly. "I'm just begging for the Hundred Regiments Campaign soon. I've gotten a lot of sponsorship this time, and many cat food brands have approached us. We'll also give away a lot of things, like cat food sample packs, custom fans, and small dolls..."

She changed the subject: "But! I heard that several popular clubs next door have invited good-looking students to stand and attract traffic. If our club doesn't have it, it will definitely be overwhelmed."

She couldn't possibly go to the express delivery station to borrow the two dogs and one cat, right?

Cow cats, huskies, and beagles can overturn the stalls when they hear it.

He Jingyuan finally understood.

Fang Die's range of begging has expanded from humans to cats.

Yunyun asked quietly, "What is the Hundred Regiments Campaign?"

"It's just a unified recruitment of new members for the club." He Jingyuan also said in a low voice.

Yuncheng University holds such activities every year.

During the early days of school, Fang Die had already recruited many people to join the club, but the real promotion still depended on this event.

The club's unified recruitment was originally scheduled for late September, but it happened to coincide with holidays and typhoons, so it was postponed to almost November this year.

Yunyun said "Oh" and turned to Fang Die and asked, "What kind of cat food sample is this? Can you show it to me?"

Fang Die thought he was interested, so she quickly took out a few small sample bags from her bag and handed them over: "This is it, I guess we can give away a lot of them by then."

The kitten lowered its head and sniffed carefully.

The unique meaty aroma penetrates into the nose.

He asked Fang Die: "If you give it away, can you give it to me?"

Fang Die offered a condition: "As long as you can come to our booth..."

Yunyun frowned.

He actually doesn't like cat food very much now, but he has a bunch of little cats who want to eat it.

Does the cat have to sit there to get cat food?

Yunyun thought for a few seconds and asked solemnly, "Can I bring my friends over?"

Fang Die was stunned for a moment.

Bring a friend to help?

She carefully confirmed: "Can your friend be as good-looking as you?"

Yunyun immediately straightened her back and said with a sense of justified pride: "I am the most beautiful."

No other cat is prettier than me!

Fang Die automatically understood that everyone else was ugly.

It’s okay, a few more people can lend a hand and help out that day.

Fang Die took the risk and nodded vigorously: "Okay, senior, you can bring your friends to help."

Yunyun's eyes lit up instantly, and she seemed very satisfied with the deal: "Okay! Then you have to share some cat food with them."

He brought the cat over without hesitation to eat and drink.

Fang Die was also very satisfied with the deal: "Yeah."

He Jingyuan: ...

He could intuitively sense that Yunyun and Senior Sister Fang Die were not on the same page...

But the weirdness matched the brain waves.
