Stardust in the Moonlight: Little Wildcat, Don't Try to Run Away

"Meow!" I rushed into the water at a very fast speed. My speed was fast enough, and my eyes could see more clearly than a human.

I swam directly to the place where Xingyu fell into the water and saw a monster the size of a child pulling Xingyu's ankle.

Xingyu struggled in the water, trying desperately to swim upwards, but his efforts were in vain! He soon stopped struggling. Then he was dragged deeper and deeper into the lake!

I saw Mo Chen again. He swam very fast. He swam straight towards Xingyu and then grabbed Xingyu.

The three of them were in a stalemate in the water.

Seeing that he couldn't pull Xingyu, Mo Chen hugged Xingyu and moved closer to the monster, then kicked the monster on the head.

The monster's hand suddenly loosened, and Mo Chen dragged the unconscious Xingyu upstream.

The monster was kicked by Mo Chen and stopped moving for a few seconds, but then it shook its head and bared its teeth, and its blood-red eyes became more prominent! It was annoyed by Mo Chen!

Mo Chen and Xingyu were about to get ashore, and Mo Chen pushed Xingyu ashore first.

I saw the monster swimming towards Mo Chen at an extremely fast speed.

I was shocked! I swam towards Mo Chen desperately, and just when the monster grabbed Mo Chen's foot, I stretched out my claws and scratched the monster's hand!

Dark green liquid came out of its hands, and it shrank back and looked at me. I stared at the monster fiercely!

If it dares to touch Mo Chen, I will definitely fight it to the death! The monster stopped moving.

Mo Chen took advantage of this opportunity to go ashore, and I breathed a sigh of relief.

I glanced at the monster. It kept staring at me and didn't seem to have any intention of coming closer to me. Maybe it was afraid of me.

I surfaced, took deep breaths, and swam towards the shore.

Everyone on the shore gathered around to look at Xingyu and Mo Chen, and Senior Sui Jing was giving Xingyu artificial respiration.

Mo Chen looked back, and when he saw me, he was stunned. He looked up towards our tent in the distance, then his eyes suddenly became panicked and he reached out his hand to me.

I was stunned for a moment. I was in cat form now. Mo Chen...

Before I could finish my thought, my shoulder suddenly started to hurt, and then I was dragged into the water by a huge force.

"Meow! Ugh!"

It hurt so much! It was so cold! My body froze in an instant! I struggled a bit, and my blood dyed the water red, and my eyes were red.

It seems like I'm doomed this time! It's no use struggling, I can't even touch the monster biting me!

The last thing on my mind was... Fortunately... Mo Chen was fine... Fortunately...

Just when I gave up struggling and was about to close my eyes, I saw Mo Chen's face. Was it an illusion? When I'm about to die, will I see the person I want to see the most?

I felt a strong force holding me tightly, and then the teeth on my body loosened, and the pain and coldness were relieved a lot as the teeth loosened. I was held in his arms, and we rushed out of the water and onto the shore.

"Cough cough... cough cough cough..." Mo Chen coughed.

"Are you okay? Mo Chen!" The senior quickly brought a towel and covered Mo Chen with it.

I lay on the ground, gasping for breath. Apart from breathing, I couldn't move at all. My body was in so much pain.

"Where did the cat come from?"

"How come you're injured so badly? You're still bleeding!"

"What's wrong with this cat?"

The girls noticed me and were about to reach out and touch me.

Mo Chen covered me with his towel, held me carefully, and walked towards our tent.

I struggled and looked in the direction of Xingyu.

"He's fine!"

I looked at Mo Chen in surprise. Was he talking to me? Did he realize he was talking to a cat?!

Mo Chen carried me into the tent, then he went out and came back soon with a medicine box in his hand.

I lay on the ground, gasping for breath. My shoulder was so painful. The monster's row of sharp teeth felt like blunt objects!

Mo Chen quickly opened the medicine box and found the alcohol.

He looked at me.

"It must be disinfected." Mo Chen said and moved closer to me.

"Um...meow..." I looked at Mo Chen and wanted to hide, but I couldn't move.

Mo Chen stopped and reached out to touch my head. "Don't be afraid. I won't let anything happen to you. Don't be afraid."

Mo Chen's hands were so comfortable that I almost closed my eyes and fell asleep.

Mo Chen poured alcohol on my wound. My shoulder suddenly started burning and the severe pain made my body struggle.

"Meow!"

Mo Chen held me down firmly with a towel.

I opened my eyes and saw Mo Chen's eyes. His eyes were full of worry. He was breathing rapidly and pressing me.

In the end, the only thing in my mind was Mo Chen's blue eyes, a color that could calm me down... I had no consciousness at all...

I opened my eyes again and heard a noisy noise outside the tent. Listening carefully, I realized that everyone was getting ready to go back.

I turned around and saw that Mo Chen was not in the tent...

I turned my head and looked at my wound. It was no longer bleeding, and there was no sticky blood. The hair was very clean, which made me feel much better. It should have been Mo Chen who cleaned it, but the wound hurt so much! What on earth was that monster!

The tent was opened, and Mo Chen came in with a basin of water. He had changed his clothes, probably those of senior Sui Jing. The clothes were very baggy, shorts, a white T-shirt, and a thick grey hoodie.

I also looked at Mo Chen.

"Meow."

Mo Chen heard my voice. He quickly sat down and looked at me with a frown.

"Why don't you listen to me? Didn't I tell you to stay in the tent?"

At that moment, I was in a trance. Did he know that I was an alien human? Otherwise, how could he talk to me so calmly?

Mo Chen's eyes softened, and he touched me. "It's good that you're awake. We're going back now. I'll clean your wound. Xingyu has woken up, but he doesn't remember what happened yesterday. Don't worry."

"Meow..." I responded to Mo Chen.

Mo Chen took a warm towel and covered me with it.

When the towel was picked up again, it was stained with dark red blood.

Mo Chen looked at the towel and his expression became even more worried.

"Meow." I moved and tried to stand up.

"You rest for a while, I'll change the water in the basin. You will feel more comfortable if you keep it clean... I said you were sleeping, so they won't come in." After Mo Chen finished speaking, he touched me and left the tent.

I moved my body. I should turn back into human form, because if everyone goes back and I'm not there, it will be hard to explain this matter...

I tried several times, but it hurt too much. Finally, I concentrated and endured the pain and changed back.

"Hmm! Ahaha...Huh!" I sat on the ground, gasping, and finally came back to normal.

I looked at my shoulder and was a little scared. There were several densely packed small blood holes. This guy bit me more than once. The strange thing was that the area around the wound was all black. Why was this happening? It was so strange. I wonder if it was poisonous.

I moved a bit, then stopped. It hurt so much. My body felt like it was on fire. My vision started to shake.

I steadied myself and pulled my pants out and put them on. I couldn't get my underwear or T-shirt on. I couldn't lift my arms.

Besides, I brought a pure white T-shirt with me, which would definitely be stained by the blood on my body if I put it on.

I emptied the medicine cabinet.

Take out the gauze and press it on my shoulder.

"Ah!" I gritted my teeth and pressed the wound, my vision blurring.

I heard Mo Chen came back.

I quickly covered my body with clothes and turned my back to the door.

"Why...did you get up?" Mo Chen sat behind me.

His fingertips touched me and they were so cold that I couldn't help but shiver.

Then there was the warm towel placed somewhere on my back.

"Ah!" I suppressed my voice, but it hurt so much.

"Please help me get some gauze to apply, otherwise I won’t be able to put on my clothes..." I sniffed, my voice shaking.

I felt Mo Chen pressing the gauze on my wound.

I held on to the tent tightly and gritted my teeth without making any sound.

Mo Chen tore off the tape and fixed the gauze one by one, then fixed the gauze on my shoulder. His movements were neat and skillful.

Then, a big piece of clothing was put on me, his grey hoodie.

"Wear this, it won't rub the wound." Mo Chen's two hands fell on my arms, and his hands seemed to be shaking slightly.

"Um…"

I turned around and looked at the water that Mo Chen brought back and washed my face.

I took the tissue Mo Chen gave me, wiped my face, and then looked up at Mo Chen.

He sat facing me, quietly, his dark eyes filled with worry, not shock or disgust.

"You... are not surprised by what happened last night, are you?" I looked at Mo Chen.

"After you told me what your grandfather told you last time, I investigated your family in detail. Besides, I seem to have seen a person who turned into a cat once..." Mo Chen lowered his eyes and thought, speaking slowly.

"Have you seen it? Who?" I was a little confused. There are not many alien humans, and it is impossible for them to be seen by others.

Mo Chen frowned. "When I was a child, I accidentally saw my mother transform once. I thought I was seeing things. As for you, most of my information is speculation, because I have seen a cat at my grandmother's house. Whenever you are with me, the cat disappears. I suspected it, and last night confirmed my suspicion. You are indeed that cat."

“…Aren’t you scared? I’m a monster or something…Aren’t you disgusted?” I looked straight at Mo Chen, suppressing my trembling voice.

"Monster?" Mo Chen frowned and smiled.

"If you are a monster, then what am I?" Mo Chen looked at me. "Aren't all the people in my family born from monsters?"

Mo Chen laughed after he finished speaking.

I looked at Mo Chen and laughed too. When this guy wasn't being mean, his words were quite heartwarming...

"Have you finished packing outside? Let's go out too. Don't drag everyone down." I looked inside the tent. There wasn't much to pack, except for folding up the tent.

Mo Chen raised his hand and touched my forehead. "Can you do it?"

"Yeah." I nodded.

"You go out first and find a corner to sit down. Don't move around and hurt your wound. I'll collect these things." Mo Chen touched my face.

I looked at Mo Chen, and a warm feeling flowed through my heart. Sometimes when he was in front of me, he didn't have the aura of a president, nor the arrogance of a young master. I like Mo Chen like this.

Mo Chen supported me and I stood up and steady myself.

"Is it okay?" Mo Chen's eyes were full of worry.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll wait for you outside." I smiled and looked at Mo Chen.

When I went out, I found that everyone's tents were almost packed up.

"Rongyue! Wake up! You're such a sleepyhead. Your husband doesn't even let us wake you up! You're showing off your love so early in the morning." Sister Wen Ya came over and held me back.

I smiled and said nothing, then turned to look at Xingyu. Xingyu and Wenxuan were talking and laughing while packing up the tent, as if nothing had happened at all.

"Sui Jing was scared last night. Fortunately, Mo Chen saved Xingyu, otherwise I really don't know how to explain to his parents. We asked Xingyu why he walked into the water yesterday. He said he didn't know why at all. He didn't realize he was in the water until he fell into the water. He can't swim yet. He fainted after struggling for a while. When he woke up, he didn't know what happened to him! This child! It's so scary." Sister Wen Ya looked at Xingyu with a worried look on her face.

"I'm glad you're okay. Maybe you were confused from sleeping too much. In the future, you'd better avoid sketching by the lake. If you come, don't camp. Come in the morning and go back to sleep at night. Otherwise, it's always unsafe..." I said and looked at the lake.

The lake was calm and beautiful again during the day, but the pain and coldness in my shoulder reminded me of what happened last night, and that monster... What on earth was it?
