Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Familiar Aura Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Familiar Aura Thump. Thump. “Yep, nothing dangerous here,” he said, completely unbothered by the chaos he’d just caused. His tone was far too casual for someone who had just treated her like a toy. Su Jiyai swore she saw stars floating in her vision. “Can you please—just put me down!” she thought, her fur puffing up with frustration. But Chuan Wang gave her one last, not-so-gentle shake. “Just one more for safety,” he said with a grin. As he shook her again, Su Jiyai’s paw finally slapped him squarely in the face, not out of malice but sheer disorientation. “Oof!” Chuan Wang stumbled back, blinking in surprise. “Meow!” Su Jiyai huffed, her paw still stuck in midair. It was clear that she hadn’t meant to smack him, but the look of confusion on his face was too priceless. Chuan Wang laughed, rubbing his cheek. “Okay, okay, you’ve got claws. No need to prove it!” He finally set her down, and Su Jiyai wobbled a bit, feeling the world sway around her. She tried to regain her composure, but between being manhandled and the dizziness, she ended up plopping down into a very ungraceful heap. “Next time… I’ll bite your nose off,” Su Jiyai thought darkly, her fur frazzled. Chuan Wang just smiled, offering her a teasing pat on the head. “You’re clear, fluffy. Let’s go meet the boss.” ‘I swear if it wasn’t for Brother Qin I would definitely teach you a good lesson!’ Su Jiyai thought in her heart. Along the way, Su Jiyai examined the living conditions of the people, and a sense of uneasiness appeared in her heart. Many humans were begging for food. The clothes they were wearing were patched and torn, barely holding together. Their faces were gaunt, eyes sunken in as if life had drained from them long ago. Children huddled beside makeshift fires, their faces smeared with dirt, while the elderly sat on the sidewalks, too weak to beg, their hands trembling from hunger. Su Jiyai’s heart sank as she padded along next to Chuan Wang, who seemed completely unfazed by the despair around them. He whistled a light tune, oblivious to the weight of the world crumbling around them. In one alley, a group of people huddled around a man who appeared to be convulsing, his skin turning a sickly shade of gray. Su Jiyai’s ears flattened against her head when she saw the telltale black veins creeping up his neck—the early signs of the zombie virus. No one dared to touch him, but they couldn’t turn away either. They just stood there, watching helplessly as the virus took its slow, agonizing toll. “The infected,” Chuan Wang commented casually and snapped his fingers. Two guards suddenly appeared from nowhere and picked up the man. One of the children in the crowd suddenly shouted, “Dad! No! Please! Please don’t take away my dad! Ah…!” Su Jiyai couldn’t bear to look. After living in her safe haven for the past 1 month or so, she completely forgot how much other people were suffering. For a moment she felt angry. Angry as to why she didn’t go to a small base and recruit people from there. At least if she did so…she could have saved many lives and completed her mission. Children were coughing, some barely managing to stand, while others seemed too weak to even sit up. Their parents, if they had any, were doing their best to protect them, but what could they do in a world like this? There wasn’t enough food to go around, not enough medicine to treat the sick, and certainly not enough hope. Soon they passed the outer region and reached the inner region of the Black Ray Base. Compared to the desperate situation in the outskirts the lives of the people in the inner circle were much more better. Once outside the leader’s home, Chuan Wang entered the home with Su Jiyai. To prevent any mishaps, Su Jiyai was inspected away. This time in a much gentler way. Along the way, Su Jiyai kept on smelling all the servants and passersby. She only had one goal. To confirm whether the leader was Qin Feng or not. Or even if he wasn’t a leader, with his capabilities he should be considered an important military person here, right? Maybe luck was in her favor because she did smell the familiar aura of Brother Qin from some people. With each step Su Jiyai took, her heart kept sipping a beat. Was she finally going to meet him? Stepping into the living room, a familiar voice fell in Su Jiyai’s ears, “Uncle Xuan don’t worry, I will take care of Little Jin.” A handsome man with blue eyes and slightly tanned skin, with a beautiful smile said. Thump. Su Jiyai blinked repeatedly to assure herself. She wasn’t dreaming! She wasn’t dreaming! Brother Qin…Her brother Qin was right in front of her Even after a year, her Brother Qin…still looked the same. For a moment Su Jiyai wished she could return to her original form and hug Brother Qin tightly. Her legs as if having a mind of their own, ran toward Qin Feng. Just like Brother Qin in her memories, he was dressed formally. The only difference was that instead of his uniform, he had worn a simple white shirt, and black pants, making him look even more handsome. Su Jiyai couldn’t help but think of the reaction Qin Feng would give once he recognized her. Would he be moved? Would he hug her and say that he missed her? He should have an answer by now, right? ‘Brother Qin’ “Meow.” Su Jiyai called out anxiously. Qin Feng turned to look at the small cat with blueberry pie color fur and his eyes paused for a bit. He was sitting on the sofa and looking down at Su Jiyai who had at some point arrived near his legs. The living room was simply decorated, with a table in the center and four beautiful new sofas placed around it. On the ceiling was a fan with a light function. Two to three guards were standing on each side of the wall. They had an expressionless face. On the table, some of the delicacies were placed which was enough to water the mouth of a hungry human wandering out of the mansion in which she was standing. “Meow! Meow!” Su Jiyai shouted. ‘Brother Qin I am Su Jiyai!’ Indifference appeared in Qin Feng’s eyes and he shifted his gaze to a middle-aged man. Su Jiyai followed his gaze and saw a middle-aged man who had worn a blue shirt with black pants. Beside the middle-aged man was a young woman and a young man. Su Jiyai instantly recognized them. seaʀᴄh thё Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Xuan Jin and Xuan Jiye. A sense of insecurity enveloped Su Jiyai. Xuan Jin was beautiful…too beautiful…her long smooth black hair, beautiful pale skin, and deep brown eyes were enough to make anyone fall for her. The uneasy feeling in Su Jiyai’s heart deepened when she saw the gentle look in Qin Feng’s eyes. Does Qin Feng like Xuan Jin? The mere thought of the question made Su Jiyai feel dizzy. Her legs trembled and she almost lost her footing. “Aww! How cute.” A sweet voice said and the next second Su Jiyai found her body getting lifted in the air. She waved her paws aggressively and kept on making a ‘meow’ sound towards Qin Feng but he remained emotionless. Xuan Jin smiled and said gently, “Little kitty don’t be scared. Come here.” Saying so she used her superpower telekinesis to levitate Su Jiyai toward her. The sensation of floating left Su Jiyai’s paws swiping helplessly at the air. Panic shot through her tiny frame, her heart pounding as she tried to wriggle free from the invisible force. “Meow! Meow!” Su Jiyai cried, her voice desperate now. ‘Brother Qin! It’s me!’ But Qin Feng remained unmoved, his expression unreadable. His once warm and protective gaze now seemed distant, almost cold. He exchanged a few words with Xuan Jin as if the cat in the room was nothing but a trivial distraction. “Look at her, Jiye,” Xuan Jin said softly, her voice laced with affection for the creature in her grasp. “Isn’t she just adorable? Maybe we could keep her.” Xuan Jiye glanced at Su Jiyai with mild interest but shrugged. “If you like her, take her. It’s just a cat.” Su Jiyai’s heart sank further. Just a cat. That’s all she was now, in the eyes of her Brother Qin and the people around him. Her once vibrant hope of being recognized by him shattered piece by piece as she floated helplessly in Xuan Jin’s grip. Just as she felt she would end up in Xuan Jin’s hands, a charred hand suddenly held her midway. The sensation of the brittle touch, made Su Jiyai’s fur stand up. Yet for an unknown reason, a sense of security appeared in Su Jiyai’s heart. She looked at the person who had held her and realized it was the person standing behind Qin Feng.
