his cat [Rebirth]

The next day is Saturday.After Xing Yingtai went to university, she became more and more independent. She didn't need her parents to help pay her tuition fees, nor did she need any subsidy from her family.So he has to work part-time every week on his rest day.

Because Xing Yingtai's task is to teach English to senior high school students, and she doesn't want to delay them at such a critical juncture, it is not easy to ask for leave.

He knew that today was the day of Chongshan's burial, but he also knew that no one would let him go even if he wanted to, and it was unnecessary.

Xing Yingtai stood on the podium, opened the handout and quickly scanned it, waiting for the class bell to ring.

The seventeen and eighteen-year-old students in the audience were laughing and playing, and a tall girl shouted, "Yingtai, why is your face so pale?"

Xing Yingtai's eyes were gentle, and the corners of his mouth curled up, but he didn't speak.

"Yingtai, are you sick?"

"Yingtai, you've lost weight again."

"Yingtai..."

In fact, the first time they saw Xing Yingtai, the students were still very afraid of him. They felt that Xing Yingtai was a strict and unkind teacher, and they lived in trepidation for a while.During that time, no one dared to talk nonsense in Xing Yingtai's class.But later, some students made mistakes unintentionally. I thought that Xing Yingtai would reprimand them sharply, but in fact Xing Yingtai just took a look at the students who made mistakes and did not pursue them severely.After a long time, the students discovered that Xing Yingtai looked upright and indifferent, but actually had a good heart. Whether it was a nickname or a joke, the students were sure that the youth on the podium would never be angry.

The class bell rang, and Xing Yingtai turned on the microphone to start today's class.

"I really don't talk nonsense..." The tall girl lowered her head and thought to herself, when can I hear Yingtai make a joke?

But even if Xing Yingtai is not funny enough, it is still because the students are obsessed with his excellent knowledge level and meticulous thinking logic.

After teaching for a whole day, Xing Yingtai's voice became hoarse again.Back in the dormitory, he saw Chen Banxiao left a note on the table.

It said: [If you don’t come back tonight, don’t call me. 】

Xing Yingtai glanced at it and threw the note into the trash can.When it was time for dinner, he unpacked two boxes of instant noodles and sat on the sofa to eat.

After entering the rainy season, it rains almost all day long.He was alone in the room, and his ears were filled with the sound of rain outside the window.

Xing Yingtai felt a little lonely, so he turned on the TV and turned it to the loudest.

Although the sound of the TV was deafening, Xing Yingtai didn't listen to anything. He was eating instant noodles mechanically, when he suddenly heard a shrill cry.

"Aww... Aww", like a child yelling in the corridor, Xing Yingtai was taken aback and turned off the TV.He thought, whose child is this, why is he crying outside?

Just as I was about to stand up and take a look, I was a little hesitant.

The crying didn't stop, and after a while, the door of the living room was scratched back and forth again, as if Xing Yingtai was slipping chalk on the blackboard.

Xing Yingtai's heart beat faster.On a rainy day, who is playing a prank, crying and scratching at his door?

I looked out through the cat's eyes and found no one.There was a lot of noise outside, and the voice-activated lights never went out.Xing Yingtai frowned and thought carefully, and suddenly understood something, he stretched out his hand and opened the door.

The sound of crying stopped suddenly, and a black and yellow figure rushed into the door like lightning, and got into the crack of the sofa like a mouse.Xing Yingtai was stunned, squatting by the wall, and saw a pair of dark green eyes staring at her in the darkness.

Xing Yingtai took a look, and couldn't help but be amazed, he had a good memory, and he knew at a glance that this was the little wild cat he saw at Chongshan's house that day.There were a lot of stray cats in that place, but this one was the only one that rubbed against Xing Yingtai's leg.

The kitten was short of breath and huddled in the dark, motionless.Xing Yingtai's house is far away from Chongshan's house, so I don't know how it came here.

Xing Yingtai was a little surprised, he stood up at a loss, and saw many small wet footprints from the door to the sofa, mixed with blood and blood.

"..."

The wind with the smell of rain blew into the living room, Xing Yingtai had no choice but to close the door first.Before closing the door, he had a thought, went out to look, and saw that the bottom of the door was scratched by a cat.

Xing Yingtai called Chen Banxiao.

Chen Banxiao didn't know what he was doing, it took him a long time to answer the phone, and he spoke angrily: "Didn't you say you don't need to call me?"

His voice was as hoarse as Xing Yingtai's.

Xing Yingtai paused, and said, "A stray cat came to the house, what should I do?"

"You caught it?" Chen Banxiao was a little surprised. He felt that Xing Yingtai had nothing to do with the excellent quality of loving small animals.

"No." Xing Yingtai said with complicated emotions, "It... ran in by itself."

Chen Banxiao didn't believe it, and nodded perfunctorily: "Okay, he ran in by himself. Damn it, do you still need to hug from the outside if you want to raise it? There are so many in my unit."

"..." Xing Yingtai sighed and said, "Okay."

Chen Banxiao hastily exhorted:

"Don't bathe it, if you can catch it, deworm it first. There is deworming medicine in my room, you can find it wherever you want."

After finishing speaking, Chen Banxiao hung up the phone impatiently.

Xing Yingtai put down the phone and looked at the sofa with complicated eyes.

The drenched, skinny little guy squeezed out from the crack, raised his head, and looked at Xing Yingtai pitifully.

Xing Yingtai was silent.

As a veterinarian, Chen Banxiao has a lot of medicine and food for pets in his room.Xing Yingtai searched for a while in his kennel-like room, and found topical insect repellant, and a lot of kitten food.

Xing Yingtai was very surprised, she didn't understand why the cat in the living room came here.Seeing that the kitten looked like it was about to starve to death, even if Xing Yingtai had no plans to raise a cat, she would not be stingy and refuse to let it have a meal at home.

The kitten, which had been huddled in the cracks of the sofa, slowly moved a few steps. After Xing Yingtai put warm water and food on the ground, the kitten jumped out, threw itself into the plastic bowl, and ate like crazy.

Seeing that the wild cats are small, but they are very wild when they eat, making the sound like a hundred pigs eating at the same time.

Xing Yingtai was really afraid that it would choke her to death, so when she heard the sound, she quickly reached out and grabbed the kitten by the neck, dragging it back.

The cat was dragged backwards, its mouth grew suddenly, and it took two mouthfuls of meat forcefully, with a very fierce expression on its face.

So every once in a while, Xing Yingtai would pull the cat back.After a while, the kitten understood by itself, the eating speed gradually slowed down, and the sound of 'purring purring' came out in its throat.

Xing Yingtai took the opportunity to drip insect repellent on the back of its neck.

After the wild cat licked the rice bowl without brushing it, it took a few sips of water, squatted on the ground, and looked at Xing Yingtai.

Xing Yingtai cleaned the floor, found a cardboard box, put old clothes on it, and signaled that wild cats could sleep in it.

As soon as Xing Yingtai bent down, the kitten gently touched his palm with its paw, as if to express its intimacy.

With this touch, and then moving away, Xing Yingtai's palm was slightly stained with blood.Xing Yingtai grabbed it with one hand, and raised the cat's paw with the other.

It can be seen that its nails are broken, crossing the blood line, and there is a lot of dried blood on the hair near the claw pad.

For a kitten like it, it would take a lot of effort to grab the door to get Xing Yingtai's attention.

Even though Xing Yingtai didn't intend to throw it out, at this moment he thought more seriously not to throw it out the door.Xing Yingtai doesn't want to keep cats at all, but what does it matter?His roommate is a doctor at the pet hospital, and he can always find a good adopter.

The cat slept in a cardboard box in the living room all night.

Xing Yingtai originally thought it would make a lot of noise, after all, it made a lot of noise outside just now.But in fact, the kittens were very quiet that night, without making a sound.

Early the next morning, Xing Yingtai stood by the box, still feeling incredible.

Today he was also going to work part-time, turned around and was about to leave when Xing Yingtai suddenly realized that something was wrong, he turned around to take a closer look, and couldn't help but let out a low 'ah'.

It turned out that a few black fleas were exposed from the cardboard box where the kitten was lying, and it seemed that they had been dead for a long time.

This was the first time Xing Yingtai saw fleas, and she called out at first glance.

Hearing Xing Yingtai's voice, the kitten raised its head and called to him too.

Xing Yingtai thought that the insect repellent was too effective, so he hesitated for a while, and called Chen Banxiao anyway.

Chen Banxiao supported the wall with one hand, bent over to put on his shoes at the entrance, felt the vibration of the phone, he answered the phone, leaned against the wall, Chen Banxiao looked at the caller ID, and answered the phone: "Hello? Yingtai?"

Xing Yingtai asked: "Are you going back to the dormitory today?"

Although the two of them are renting a house together, they are still used to calling it a 'dormitory'.

Chen Banxiao let out an 'hmm'.

"What time is it?"

Xing Yingtai seldom cared about Chen Banxiao's affairs, so Chen Banxiao asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

"..." Xing Yingtai said after a pause, "I'm going out to work, so please take care of that cat for me."

Chen Banxiao was very surprised and said "hmm".After hanging up the phone, he was still wondering what happened to Xing Yingtai.

At this moment, a naked man walked up behind Chen Banxiao.The man was tall, with no expression on his face, and looked a little dull.He asked quietly, "Why haven't you left yet?"

Chen Banxiao put on his shoes and stood there with an ambiguous smile: "I'm waiting for you to see me off."

The man paused, raised his hand, and then Chen Banxiao caught a hard object.

The man said blankly, "The key."

Chen Banxiao nodded, it seemed that he was going to leave.

The man opened his mouth to say something when he turned around, and even stretched his right hand forward, touching Chen Banxiao's shoulder.

Chen Banxiao violently dragged the man down the steps at the entrance, took the man's hand, and forced him to raise his right hand above his head.

Chen Banxiao was about the same height as the man, looking directly at the man's amber pupils and smiling slightly.

The man's expression remained unchanged, his Adam's apple rolled up and down.

Chen Banxiao bent down slowly, approached the man's chest, and opened his mouth to lick his protruding nipple.

Chen Banxiao's movements were very light, but the man seemed unable to bear it, his left hand tightly grasped Chen Banxiao's shoulder.

"You hate me, don't you?" Chen Banxiao whispered, "But I have something to go. Next time I come, I'll play with you again."
