Chapter 134 The Cat Returns 18
Yi Zeyu turned to look at Yi Changfan, frowning, and said, "What do you mean 'not your family'? Even if... you... are still his own son..."
This "he" naturally refers to Yi Hong.
Yi Changfan chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Although we are related by blood, we don't have the affection of family. It can only be said that we are destined to meet but not to be together."
Yi Changfan's smile carried a hint of bitterness and helplessness. He had always longed for the warmth of family affection, but reality had disappointed him time and time again.
Upon hearing this, Yi Zeyu was furious. "You're really incredibly stupid. I have no idea what you've learned in the Yi family all these years." Yi Zeyu's tone was full of disappointment and frustration.
"People in our circle are all about profit. Let alone you, even me, when have you ever seen either of them truly care about me?"
A barely perceptible hint of loneliness flashed in Yi Zeyu's eyes.
Yi Zeyu continued, "So, when you can talk about money, don't talk about feelings. Grasping tangible benefits is the most important thing."
Yi Changfan looked at Yi Zeyu with a strange expression, "Why...why are you telling me all this?"
Yi Zeyu's heart tightened, and he immediately put on a disdainful attitude, "You think I'm concerned about you? I'm only doing this for Momo."
She's living with a father like you, what will she do if she doesn't know where her next meal will come from? Momo is usually very picky about food. Otherwise, you can keep Momo here, and you can move out yourself; I won't object.
Yi Zeyu crossed his arms and leaned against the headboard, his face bearing the familiar arrogance of Yi Changfan.
In the past, Yi Changfan would always feel helpless and angry when he saw Yi Zeyu's expression like this.
However, at this moment, Yi Changfan saw a hint of warmth in Yi Zeyu's expression. Yi Changfan's heartstrings were touched. Although Yi Zeyu seemed to be sharp-tongued, he was actually concerned about him and Momo.
This magical feeling felt unfamiliar and strange to Yi Changfan, but he didn't find it offensive at all.
With a smile on his face, Yi Changfan said solemnly, "Yi Zeyu, thank you."
Yi Zeyu was so embarrassed he almost curled his toes up; this kind of cozy atmosphere was really not suitable for the two of them, grown men.
Yi Zeyu quickly dismissed him, saying, "I'm hungry, go buy me some food."
Looking at Yi Zeyu's flushed cheeks and unfocused eyes, Yi Changfan suddenly realized that his older brother wasn't as domineering as he had imagined.
"Then I'll go buy you some food. You should rest well. The doctor said you can be discharged after this IV drip is finished."
After Yi Changfan left the ward, Yi Zeyu finally calmed down. Recalling his earlier lapse in composure, Yi Zeyu angrily punched the bed. What was he so ashamed of that he had made a fool of himself in front of Yi Changfan?
He's the older brother, how could he not control this younger brother?
Despite thinking this way, Yi Zeyu's lips remained turned up in a smile.
After having dinner together, Yi Zeyu and Yi Changfan were discharged from the hospital to pick up Momo and take her home. When the driver saw the two of them walking side by side in harmony, he felt a mix of emotions.
It's amazing that the eldest young master and the second young master are so close. It's incredible!
When Yi Changfan arrived at the pet hospital to pick up Momo, Shen Chumo was already surrounded by the hospital's doctors and nurses.
They doted on Shen Chumo, their eyes overflowing with affection.
"Come on, Momo, have this cat treat from your big sister." A girl said gently and sweetly, holding a cat treat that smelled tempting, and looking at Shen Chumo with anticipation.
"Why eat cat treats? This freeze-dried food I have tastes better." The girl next to her held up her freeze-dried food, trying to attract Shen Chumo's attention.
"Get out of the way, everyone. Momo will definitely prefer this canned food." A cheerful voice rang out, and a handsome boy squeezed to the front, holding a delicate can in his hand.
Shen Chumo accepted all the food offered and tried them all, but the people seemed undeterred and continued to feed her.
Shen Chumo ate until her little belly was round and full, but in the end she couldn't eat anymore. She raised her paws as if to surrender, "I can't eat anymore, I really can't eat anymore."
Her little paws were waving in the air, she looked so cute.
Upon seeing her like this, a cheer erupted from the crowd.
"Ahhh, Momo is such a good girl, come home with your sister now."
“No, Momo is mine, she has to come home with me,” the other person immediately retorted.
Shen Chumo sighed, lay on the table, and arrogantly licked her fur. "There's nothing I can do about it, my charm is just too great."
Its leisurely and carefree demeanor made it seem like a celebrity adored by many.
Yi Changfan and Yi Zeyu, standing outside the crowd, exchanged a helpless glance. They had been worried about Momo the whole way here.
As it turns out, they're doing much better than them.
Yi Zeyu cleared his throat twice, but the people didn't hear him, still mesmerized by Shen Chumo's beauty. Yi Zeyu's face darkened, and he said sternly, "I said, how long are you going to keep circling my cat?"
Upon hearing Yi Zeyu's words, the crowd turned around and, upon seeing the two of them, showed embarrassed expressions, blushing and reluctantly dispersed, leaving only Shen Chumo's attending physician behind.
Yi Changfan walked to Momo's side, gently picked it up, checked it over, and only felt relieved after confirming that Momo was cured.
Then, a little jealous, she said to Momo, "You can't let just anyone touch you anymore, okay?"
Momo patted his hand with its tail, as if to say, "I understand, I understand."
Shen Chumo looked at Yi Zeyu, jumped into his arms, and touched his face with her paw. After confirming that he did not have a fever, she felt relieved. If Yi Zeyu had become seriously ill because of her, it would have diminished her merit.
Yi Zeyu was touched to see that Shen Chumo cared about him. He hugged Shen Chumo tightly, feeling her warmth and softness.
Then, looking at Yi Changfan provocatively, Yi Zeyu said with a smug smile, "See? Mo Mo still likes me the most."
Yi Changfan shook his head helplessly. That's too naive.
After paying the bill, the two bought a bunch of Shen Chumo's things at the hospital and returned to the Yi family home.
The two of them had been up all day, especially Yi Changfan, who hadn't slept all night and looked exhausted when they got home.
Pushing open the door, Zhou Mengqi, who was sitting nervously in the living room, suddenly stood up, her eyes filled with tension and anticipation.
Looking at Momo in Yi Changfan's arms, she asked anxiously, "Changfan, Zeyu, you're back. How is Momo?"
Yi Changfan said calmly, "Mo Mo is fine now."
Zhou Mengqi breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest, saying, "Thank goodness Mo Mo is alright, otherwise I really..."
Zhou Mengqi's eyes were slightly red, and her voice was choked with emotion. She looked very worried about Shen Chumo.
Shen Chumo rolled around in Yi Changfan's arms out of boredom; what a drama queen!
