The Substitute Omega is Soft and Delicate (10)

Lin Xiyao thought Shen Wenbai would take him to the Shen Corporation headquarters, but instead, he took him to a company Shen Wenbai had founded himself.

“Do you like it here? You are the other owner of this place!” Shen Wenbai pointed to the decorations in his office. “I arranged all of these myself.”

Lin Xiyao looked at the various small spheres and, strangely enough, he actually quite liked them.

“It is very beautiful.”

“As long as you like it, since you will have to work in this office from now on.” Shen Wenbai smiled with satisfaction, reached out to wrap his arm around Lin Xiyao’s waist, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, “Are you afraid? I am a capitalist, after all!”

Lin Xiyao: “…” Hmm, that sounded a bit silly.

He complained internally, but he appeared quite moved on the surface. Unfortunately, his acting skills were not up to par, and Shen Wenbai saw right through him.

“Oh, I am being looked down upon.” Shen Wenbai sat on the sofa, pulled a small mirror from his suit pocket, and checked his reflection. He looked very handsome in the mirror! How could he be disliked by a cat?

It must be that a cat’s aesthetic sense is different from a human’s.

Lin Xiyao did not observe Shen Wenbai’s reaction; he was captivated by something else. He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking most of the city. Sunlight spilled onto the green plants, casting mottled shadows, while people came and went on the street below, bustling and lively.

“What are you looking at?” Shen Wenbai hugged Lin Xiyao from behind, his arms wrapped tightly around him, locking him securely in his embrace.

“Nothing, I just suddenly feel that the scenery here is particularly beautiful.” Lin Xiyao smiled, raised his arm to block the glaring sun, and narrowed his eyes to admire the surroundings. Money is truly a wonderful supplement; it allows him to see landscapes he otherwise would not.

Shen Wenbai looked at Lin Xiyao’s profile. His face was chubby but not fat, his eyelashes were thick and curled, and his nose was high and prominent. Shen Wenbai could not help but recall how Lin Xiyao had blocked his lips with his own that night, fragrant and soft.

Why had he not realized how cute this silly cat was before? It must be that evil makes a cat ugly.

Shen Wenbai’s gaze was extremely aggressive. Lin Xiyao felt his hair stand on end under the stare. “Mr. Shen, the roses in the office look like they are about to die.”

“Do not worry about them; they are fake flowers, they have no life.” After saying this, Shen Wenbai turned and walked out of the office, leaving Lin Xiyao with an indifferent and dashing silhouette.

Lin Xiyao stood where he was, blinking his large eyes. “…” Why did it always feel like Shen Wenbai’s tone was weird just now? He seemed to be angry.

After leaving the room, Shen Wenbai told Yuanxiao to investigate why this bad cat had appeared in the small world. Had it made a mistake? How big of a mistake was it?

It was getting late, so Shen Wenbai ordered a lamb hot pot for Lin Xiyao. The bad cat liked to eat lean lamb meat and enjoyed drinking lamb soup.

Shabu-shabu in a clear broth, as long as the quality of the lamb is high, is actually about the same as lamb soup. Actually, it was quite different. Shen Wenbai sighed; he did not know how to brew lamb soup.

He would have to learn! Learning is endless.

Shen Wenbai walked into the office carrying the takeout and saw Lin Xiyao sitting on the sofa, clutching his tablet and looking as if he were lost in serious thought. He could not help but chuckle secretly. Hahaha, this silly cat is really cute.

He disliked most humans, but he liked cats; otherwise, given how much the bad cat had provoked him before, he would have killed it long ago.

“Xixi, time to eat.” Shen Wenbai walked over to the sofa and placed the takeout on the table. Upon hearing this, Lin Xiyao immediately tossed the tablet aside and scurried over to grab the chopsticks.

He had not eaten for three hours, which was not good.

Shen Wenbai watched him eating with such relish, feeling a sense of pleasure, the corners of his mouth lifting. He reached out to pat Lin Xiyao’s head and asked gently, “Tell me, were you a little cat in your past life?”

“I do not know.” Lin Xiyao shook his head. Does one not have to drink Meng Po’s soup before reincarnation? How could he remember his past life? Perhaps he was the wind in his past life, slapping people in the face every day.

“Hmm.” Shen Wenbai’s deep, seductive voice sounded. “Since you were a cat in your past life, how about you keep me company and do some exercise today as a reward for this meal, hmm?” He deliberately dragged out the end of his sentence, full of temptation.

Lin Xiyao listened to Shen Wenbai’s magnetic voice, feeling a tickle in his heart. On the surface, he looked up at Shen Wenbai in confusion and said in an adorable, dazed manner, “What kind of exercise? I do not understand.”

“It is nothing.” Shen Wenbai shook his head with a smile. “You continue eating.”

After finishing his meal, Lin Xiyao leaned back on the sofa, rubbing his belly and letting out a burp. “I am full.”

“Are you sure you do not want to eat anything else?” Shen Wenbai walked over and sat down next to Lin Xiyao to ask.

“I cannot eat anymore.” Lin Xiyao shook his head. “Why are you not working yet? Are you not busy?”

Although his small treasury was quite full, he was kind-hearted. If Shen Wenbai happened to be short on money, he would definitely have to take some out of his treasury, so Shen Wenbai’s ability to earn money was very important.

“I am not busy! I hire talented people precisely so I can be at leisure, otherwise, why would I spend so much money?” Shen Wenbai answered as a matter of course. “Besides, there is nothing for me to handle right now.”

After hearing Shen Wenbai’s words, Lin Xiyao felt a bit conflicted. So this is what it is like to be a rich person, spending money every day and still having so much of it.

Oh no, he was starting to feel a bit envious.

“Your neck looks so empty!” After saying this, Shen Wenbai started digging into his pockets and took out a box. It was an emerald bell. It was solid inside, so it could not make a sound, which was just perfect for a silly cat to wear.

A little cat and a bell are a perfect match!

“Thank you.” Although Lin Xiyao felt this necklace was a bit strange, it was valuable! He loved money, so he loved the bell.

Ring-a-ding-ding-ding.

A phone ringtone suddenly sounded. Shen Wenbai took his phone out of his pocket and answered, “Hello?”

“A-Bai, I am back. Everything here has changed so much! I am lost.”

“Open your phone and download a map. I am busy, hanging up!”

Shen Wenbai touched his face. He did not look like a map! Why was he calling him? He must be crazy!

In the original plot, the white moonlight, Chen Chen, who was destined to come to a bad end, was stunned. This was different from the previous life! Clearly, he had returned early this time, and Shen Wenbai should not have had a five-year relationship with that substitute yet. This should not be happening!

He returned specifically to save the Shen Wenbai who had suffered such a tragic childhood.

“Who called? You seem angry.” Lin Xiyao used a spoon to scoop some ice cream to eat, not forgetting to show concern for his benefactor.

“It is nothing, just someone who cannot see the situation clearly.”

Shen Wenbai thought that the white moonlight also had some issues. How much could a person who had never contacted you possibly love you? Technology is so advanced these days, going abroad is just that; it is not like being separated by life and death.

Even if they were separated by life and death, one could commit suicide for love! Why did the original host not commit suicide for love? He only loved himself. In the end, throwing away the white moonlight and the substitute happened only because time had passed and both their beauty had faded.

Lin Xiyao: “Oh.”

It had nothing to do with him; he might as well continue eating his ice cream. The raspberry-flavored ice cream was too delicious.
