House Dad's Literary Life

Chapter 161 – The Shape Reminds Me of My Love For You

Early in the morning, Yang Yi was confused by Xixi. When she got up, the little girl was very upset. She hugged her father’s neck tightly and cried. She was so sad that she couldn’t help herself.

“What’s the matter? Tell Papa, why are you crying?” Yang Yi asked in a daze while he coaxed with a headache.

After a while, Xixi sobbed, grievingly choked up in her father’s arms and said, “my, my Xiao Guai is gone.”

Xiao Guai is gone?

Since when?

Yang Yi remembered that after coming back from his morning exercise, soaking the cat food1, going to the balcony to feed the kittens and calling out twice, they still ran out from every corner.

“Who’s gone? Aren’t they all perfectly fine at home?” Yang Yi asked.

“I saw it, I saw it, I saw my Xiao Guai go in a car and left.” The little girl said with tears in her eyes and pouting mouth.

Yang Yi understood. He smiled and rubbed his daughter’s head and said, “That’s because you were dreaming! It’s okay now, you’re awake now. Papa will take you to see the kittens.”

When they arrived in the living room, Yang Yi smiled and gently pulled up Xixi’s little hand, pointed in a direction, and said, “Xixi, look, isn’t the kittens playing there?”

The big Xiao Hui climbed up to the top of the cat climbing frame and reached out to fiddle with the hanging plush ball, while Duoduo was docile, lying on the middle part of the cat climbing frame, squinting her eyes, unmoved.

Xixi opened her big red and swollen eyes, looked carefully for a while, and then became aggrieved again: “My Xiao Guia is not there, he’s gone.”

Yang Yi looked at his daughter’s big eyes filled with tears and hurriedly said: “No, Xiao Guai is definitely at home. Come, Papa will find him for you!”

In recent days, Yang Yi has bought a book about raising cats. He almost has a good understanding of the habits of cats, so he went to those small corners to look for him. After a while, he found him.

“Xixi, come here, look your Xiao Guai is here!” Yang Yi half knelt on the ground, smiled and waved at Xixi.

The little girl was overjoyed. She quickly wiped her tears and ran over. Sure enough, she saw the kitten in the small gap between the armrests of the sofa. The little guy was still watching secretly with his shining and reflective eyes.

“Xiao Guai, Xiao Guai, come out quickly, you almost scared your big sister to death!” Xixi called out with a pout.

When all is said and down, it was Xixi who had been playing with the kitten for a long time. So, when Xiao Guai saw her, he came out.

Fortunately, when Yang Yi cleaned the house, he didn’t spare these blind corners, and the kitten didn’t get any dust on his body. Otherwise, Yang Yi would never have let Xixi hug the kitten.

Seeing Xixi hugging Xiao Guai happily, as if she had accomplished some feat, Yang Yi couldn’t help but smile.

…….

Tianmei Entertainment. Today was the time for the regular meeting this week. Unless it was impossible to leave where they were, almost all the agents, including some unannounced artists, have returned to the company to attend the meeting.

Mo Xiaojuan was in Mo Fei’s office, helping Mo Fei do her hair: “You have to dress up beautifully today, and then shine on the scene and blind their dog eyes!”

Hmph, thinking about those people who said Mo Fei was an old woman at that time, Mo Xiaojuan was very angry. Of course, Mo Xiaojuan wouldn’t tell Mo Fei about these unpleasant things.

However, Mo Fei was a little absent-minded. After a while, after Mo Xiaojuan finished, she picked up her cell phone that just rang and couldn’t wait to open the text message.

To be exact, it was an MMS!

Seeing this, Mo Xiaojuan curled her lips unhappily. She felt that she has become bloated with the daily meal of dog food2: “Did brother-in-law send you something again? Is it a cartoon this time? Or a love letter?”

In fact, there was no need to ask, looking at Mo Fei covering her mouth and smiling happily, Mo Xiaojuan knew it was a cartoon!

Yesterday Yang Yi sent a cartoon. Mo Xiaojuan saw it. It showed a little man holding a crab, and the two claws of the crab were in the shape of a heart.

The drawing style was very rough and there was nothing redeeming about it.

But with the following words written by Yang Yi himself, “Even when talking about crabs, all I see are their heart shaped claws which remind me of my love for you”, Mo Xiaojuan felt that it was so corny that she thought that she would have goose bumps!

This kind of emoji-style cartoon, not to mention Mo Xiaojuan, no one in this world has ever seen it, so it looked very fresh. Of course, this straightforward expression was also quite surprising.

What will it be today?

Mo Xiaojuan originally refused to eat dog food, but she couldn’t resist leaning in to see it. Mo Fei was also happy to share it with her.

She saw the same little man from the previous one. This time he drew two dots on him as nostrils, which made him look even uglier. However, the little man’s head was also drawn with heart-shaped patterns of different sizes and colored in pink.

“Every day, I breathe in the air around me which contains my love for you!” Mo Xiaojuan read out the following beautifully written characters and couldn’t help blurt out a quote she learn in the northeast dialect, “Oh, my God, this man, why is he so endless?”3

Mo Fei covered her mouth and giggled.

Mo Xiaojuan puffed up her mouth, stuffed the cell phone back to Mo Fei, and said unhappily, “No, no more! You two are just showing off your affection! I’m really speechless and nauseated4 by you two!”

Mo Fei giggled and didn’t respond so as not to stimulate her single cousin.

But she liked it very much. She has kept all the things that Yang Yi has wrote to her during this period of time and all the things he has sent to her. She would often read them secretly, and then she would feel that she was full of energy the whole day.

Mo Xiaojuan: what else can I do? Your cousin, I, am also desperate to eat dog food every day!).

“To-tut, to-tut!” At this moment, Mo Xiaojuan’s cell phone also received a text message.

Of course, Mo Xiaojuan wouldn’t have any guy to send her affectionate text messages. It was basically all related to work, so Mo Xiaojuan subconsciously picked up her cell phone and took a look.

It was an unfamiliar number.

However, the content of the text message shocked her: “I am Mu Li’ang, please open the email address below and read my new email.”

Mu Li’ang texted her?

How did Mu Li’ang know her number?

Oh, right, it was in her signature at the bottom of her e-mail.

But why did Mu Li’ang suddenly ask her to read his email? And gave her a new email address and password?

Many question marks appeared on Mo Xiaojuan’s head.

“Xiaojuan, are you ready? We’re going to the meeting!” Mo Fei looked at the time and said.

Mo Xiaojuan sat in front of the computer and bent down to turn it on.

“What are you doing turning on the computer?” Mo Fei was confused.

While Mo Xiaojuan was waiting for the computer to boot, she said angrily, “Sister, why are you in such a hurry? Every meeting, you are the first to arrive. Do you still look like an elder sister like that? What is an elder sister? An elder sister is the one who wants everyone to wait for her and has to put on airs!”

But Mo Fei shook her head and said, “No, I don’t like to keep people waiting for me. Besides, why put on airs when you’re the elder sister? If that was the case, I’m unsuitable to be an elder sister!”

Mo Xiaojuan rolled her eyes. She couldn’t talk to her cousin, who was sometimes as stubborn as a cow.
