After understanding the language of animals, I quit the entertainment circle and started working for

Chapter 421

Seeing the kitten completely nestled into Lin Xiao's arms, Lu Chengshen finally couldn't help but raise his hand and gently tap the table next to him.

Lin Xiao suddenly stopped petting the cat.

Almost simultaneously, the person and the cat turned their heads to look over.

Both pairs of eyes held the same bewilderment and helplessness.

Lu Chengshen swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue, changed his tone, and forced out a faint smile.

What did you want to talk to me about?

The little raccoon looked at the man in front of it, flicked its tail in disgust, and silently hid itself in Lin Xiao's arms.

Ah!
man!

As Lin Xiao listened to the other person's words, she absentmindedly stroked the raccoon's head with her fingers, her tone somewhat distracted.

"I just want to talk to you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chengshen thought the other person was going to talk about going home for the Spring Festival, and his heart skipped a beat.

Unexpectedly, the next second he heard Lin Xiao's almost muttered explanation.

"I've been thinking about this for a long time today, and I feel there are some things I need to explain to you clearly."

After speaking, she slowly raised her eyes, only to meet Lu Chengshen's slightly paused gaze.

Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow with a hint of doubt, "If it's not convenient for you right now, then I'll... come over later?"

After saying that, she picked up the baby in her arms and prepared to leave, but she had only taken one step when someone behind her grabbed her arm.

Lu Chengshen awkwardly touched the tip of his nose before speaking somewhat embarrassedly.

"No, it's convenient for you to come anytime!"

"but……"

He looked down at the little raccoon nestled in Lin Xiao's arms.

The little guy noticed the gaze fixed on him and instinctively shrank back.

She immediately hid even closer to Lin Xiao.

Before he could even hide inside, he suddenly felt a pull on his back, and then his whole body was pulled out.

The little raccoon's body swayed precariously in mid-air.

He looked at Lin Xiao with a wronged expression and let out a soft cry.

"Meow~"

Look at him!
His expression of complaining was palpable.

Lin Xiao raised her hands, which were half-suspended in the air. She wanted to take the kitten, but she was worried about Lu Chengshen, so she could only turn her head and glance at him.

"Don't pull on his neck, you might get hurt."

Lu Chengshen naturally tucked the kitten into his arms.

The little one naturally tried to struggle, but was immediately pressed down by the man's hand.

The kitten, which had been struggling and looking aggrieved, suddenly fell silent.

"Miwu~"

The little one huddled in the man's large palm, holding his head up, his voice trembling with a hint of grievance.

They look incredibly pitiful.

Unfortunately, the man behind her was not moved by the little raccoon's performance at all, and simply said, "Fine, but I'll send this little guy out first."

After saying that, he picked up the little brat in his hand, turned around, and walked towards the window next to him.

Lin Xiao hesitated, then tried to reach out and grab the other person.

Unfortunately, in that moment of hesitation, the little brat was ruthlessly thrown out the window by the man.

Lin Xiao could only glance apologetically at the little raccoon outside the window before turning her gaze to the man in front of her. At this moment, Lu Chengshen had regained his previous calm and composed expression, as if everything was under control, and even took the initiative to speak, "Now you can talk."

Lin Xiao glanced at the raccoon cat, who had been thrown out the window and was pressed tightly against the glass, with a complicated expression. She could only force herself to ignore the little cub's aggrieved look and focus all her attention on the man in front of her.

"You must have noticed my problem during this time, right?"

"I know I've been feeling inexplicably down lately, which must be very confusing to you."

Lin Xiao deliberately avoided the other person's expression and continued to explain.

"I've been struggling with this for so long, but I still want to tell you how I've felt during this time."

"You should know that I am an orphan. I have no one to rely on here and no relatives."

"The only people I can call close friends and family right now are Teacher Chu and his group, so I have absolutely no experience interacting with relatives."

"So, ever since I found out I was going to go home with you, I've been very worried. I don't know if I can fit into a family, or how I'll get along with the elders, so..."

Suddenly, a hot chest pressed against her, and Lin Xiao instantly fell into a warm embrace.

The man's arms around Lin Xiao tightened slowly. He lowered his head, his nose touching Lin Xiao's shoulder, and his deep voice poured out.

"I'm sorry! I've made you scared all this time."

The person being comforted raised the corners of their lips and revealed a faint smile.

Lin Xiao looked down at the man's hands wrapped around her waist, then slowly raised her hand and placed it on the back of his hand.

"What is there to apologize for? I'm telling you all this today simply to let you know about the problems I have."

"So... I want to take this step, and you'll support me, right?"

"Correct!"

Almost instantly, Lu Chengshen grasped Lin Xiao's hand without hesitation.

“We’ll move forward together. Besides, you’ve already met my brother. My parents are very easy to talk to, so don’t worry.”

"I'll go back with you then, don't worry."

Lin Xiao slowly tightened his palm and finally nodded.

Time passed, and even though Lin Xiao was very worried about meeting during the Spring Festival, New Year's Eve finally arrived.

Lin Xiao felt an indescribable tension until she reached the Lu family's door.

The Lu family now resides in a secluded villa district, a place where land is extremely valuable.

Lu Chengshen parked the car, walked over to Lin Xiao, and took her hand.

"Come on, let's go inside!"

Lin Xiao chuckled softly and finally nodded slowly.

The two people stepped towards the gate and went inside.

At that very moment, inside the house, a woman was standing in front of a mirror, trying on the clothes she was wearing.

As she spoke, she turned and called out to the man next to her who was also dressing up, "Old man, do you think I'm dressed like this? Is it gentle enough?"

On the other side, the man casually changed into a set of pajamas and nodded perfunctorily.

"That's enough, you look good in anything!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a muffled thud was heard and a cashmere sweater was placed directly on his head.

I could even hear the angry voice of a woman in my ear.

"You'd better put away that serious face right now. Don't forget your youngest son repeatedly warned you that if you scare him away today, you can expect him to come after you for what he owes you!"

The old man pouted, looking aggrieved, "But I'm his father!"

Even so, she quietly changed to a softer-looking accessory.

never mind!

That expressionless, sly guy, the second brother—if he can't afford to mess with him, can't he at least avoid him?!
