Rat, Rabbit, And Rabbit Transformed Into Humans And Married Their Natural Enemies. Chapter 14

Chapter 14

Bai Zhi’s gaze was involuntarily fixed on Xie Yuzhan.

When the other man stopped in front of him, it took almost all his strength to hold back from crying out, terrified of angering Mr. Wolf, whose mood was already poor.

Seeing that the person before him had no intention of speaking, he timidly asked, “Today, why did you come back so late today? Was the company very busy? Did… did you eat yet?”

One shouldn’t strike a smiling face. His attitude was good, he was polite, and he was speaking words of concern. He shouldn’t lash out at him!

The bunny is very well-behaved, the bunny poses not even a tiny bit of a threat!!

Xie Yuzhan rarely showed emotion in front of outsiders. He thought Bai Zhi was already resting, but unexpectedly ran into him right at the staircase landing.

He took off his glasses and gently pinched the bridge of his nose with a hint of weariness. After slightly calming his emotions, his voice was still somewhat deep as he spoke, “The company was busy today. But you, why haven’t you gone to sleep yet?”

Bai Zhi stared blankly at Xie Yuzhan. The wolf gentleman without his glasses had a pair of eyes filled with cold, heavy loathing, which was directly shoved in front of him, making him involuntarily soften his breathing.

He seemed, perhaps, probably hadn’t done anything to offend CEO Xie!

Such a well-behaved little bunny like him, what trouble could he possibly cause?!

Could it be that even his breathing is wrong QAQ? This is going to kill the bunny. If he can’t even die understanding why, wouldn’t this second life be wasted?!

He still has so much grass to cultivate, and so many little cakes and vegetable leaves he hasn’t tasted. He definitely doesn’t want to be bitten to death right now!

It’s too unworthy and too uneconomical.

Thinking of this, he didn’t care about the adage of not striking a smiling face anymore. His voice rose considerably with nervousness as he said, “I’m going to sleep right now, right now! Quickly, running there! Good night!!”

After speaking, he drew a breath from his dantian, turned and ran, tripping on flat ground due to his haste and wobbly legs, nearly falling flat on his face.

It wasn’t until he ran all the way back to the bedroom, locked the door, hugged Pikachu, and burrowed under the covers that he finally came back to his senses. Heavens, heavens, he truly is a vicious and brutal wolf from the grasslands!

Just one look had such immense destructive power.

The bunny is absolutely no match!

All he can do is run away.

What gentle, good wolf? That was completely his own delusion. The other party is a brutal carnivore to the core. That bit of friendliness must just be a facade, definitely with ulterior motives. He mustn’t become careless just because life is comfortable now. Be careful, or the bunny might die!

Xie Yuzhan looked at Bai Zhi, who was just a blurry silhouette now, and sighed silently. He had already restrained himself, but he still scared the little bunny. His courage was as small as a sesame seed, yet his two legs moved surprisingly fast.

Emotionally slow, but all his sensitivity was focused on escape. He was startled by the slightest disturbance.

A true little bunny.

And his already terrible mood sank into an even deeper abyss with Bai Zhi’s departure, adding a touch of melancholy.

After a moment of stillness, he slowly walked upstairs. Scaring Bai Zhi tonight was not his intention. The frightened little bunny was indeed innocent and fundamentally hadn’t done anything wrong—

Should he try to coax him?

After all, he was still counting on the other party to bring him some amusement.

As for Bai Zhi, he was curled up in bed and couldn’t fall asleep for half the night. Lu Qinghe had previously said he was quite big-hearted and didn’t care about many things. He admitted this point; a little bunny doesn’t want much, so naturally, he cares about less.

But he wasn’t so big-hearted as to disregard his own life safety!

He pondered for half the night, consuming quite a few small biscuits, and finally came up with a solution that wasn’t really a solution: to use the wisdom of the vast number of netizens to figure things out!

Xie Yuzhan is a very busy man; he has neither the interest nor the time to watch his live stream. He would stream tomorrow morning and ask his fans how to get along with a mortal enemy and natural predator…

He didn’t even need to get along well; just getting the other party not to dislike him would suffice! He couldn’t set his expectations too high.

Survival is the priority.

He finally fell asleep in the latter half of the night but had a very unpleasant dream. He woke up with a sharp sting in his neck when the sky was already bright.

He checked his neck, looking left and right, confirming that he had only been bitten in the dream, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

After quickly starting his live stream, he directly asked the question that had plagued him all night: How to coexist peacefully with a mortal enemy and natural predator?

Many netizens watching the stream were enthusiastic, and the comments were dazzling. He squinted for a long time and finally saw a reliable suggestion—

Cater to his preferences.

This is the most direct way to show goodwill that the other party is least likely to reject.

So the question was, he hadn’t noticed any obvious hobbies of Xie Yuzhan!

He racked his brains for a long time but couldn’t come up with anything. How about creating something out of nothing? His cooking skills were quite good, certified delicious by Lin Haiyan herself—the kind that could open a restaurant. How about cooking for CEO Xie?

However, he had always cooked during the day before and hadn’t felt the need to let Xie Yuzhan taste it. For a carnivore, vegetarian food probably wouldn’t be very appetizing.

Thinking of this, he followed up by asking the netizens how to make a carnivorous big shot switch to vegetarianism.

It is said that eating vegetarian food can keep one’s mood peaceful and stable, reducing aggression, which would greatly increase the bunny’s safety index.

The netizens’ answers were even more lively this time. Many plays he didn’t understand popped up, including but not limited to the saying that food and sex are human nature, using beauty as an appetizer, and so on, leaving him utterly confused and beyond the scope of the bunny’s understanding.

In the midst of the chaos, he caught one comment: Make a meal with love!

Washing hands to make soup—this he understood!!

Food made with abundant love has a magical power to heal hearts. If Mr. Wolf ate his meal made with love, maybe he could understand his painstaking efforts?

Heaven and Earth can attest, the bunny truly has no ill intentions!

The bunny just wants to peacefully survive for one year!!

And!

He who eats your food is beholden to you. If he eats the meal made with love, he won’t be able to show his sharp teeth to him~ Love can be transmitted! He doesn’t ask Mr. Wolf to protect him much, just treating him as an ordinary roommate would be enough!

No sooner said than done. After eating lunch and taking a nap, he plunged into the kitchen and started preparing a vegetarian meal! If he likes meat… that’s fine, there’s mock meat! It looks like meat but is actually vegetarian. He would make that.

The netizens were right: to capture a person’s heart, you must first capture their stomach.

Lin Haiyan watched with curiosity. Bai Zhi was always more interested in vegetables, fruits, and various edible flowers. Why did he suddenly decide to make mock meat today?

She had a guess, and after asking, it was confirmed: it was naturally for the other master of the house.

She was very happy to see the two of them getting along.

Bai Zhi was sensible. While he was slow in social etiquette, he was very clear-headed when faced with a situation. He didn’t need indiscriminate love and kindness; having preferences and dislikes was better.

Moreover, his personality was lively, possessing a rare, vigorous vitality that made him very likable.

That relaxed vitality was precisely what Xie Yuzhan lacked. Therefore, while she was satisfied and fond of Bai Zhi, she was also expectant. Now that the other party was willing to take the initiative to do something, she was happy to see it happen and enthusiastically offered some help.

At five in the afternoon, Xie Yuzhan left work early.

He picked up the item he had ordered, maintaining a facade of calm despite the driver’s curious and astonished gaze. Since he was going to apologize and coax him, preparing a gift was the most direct expression.

He glanced at the sizable cardboard box beside him, tapping his interlaced fingers. Catering to his preferences—this choice was unlikely to go wrong. He hoped it would successfully coax the little bunny.

Without the other person at the dining table, even Lin Haiyan’s consistently good cooking felt like it was missing some flavor.

Perhaps Bai Zhi’s appearance and temperament perfectly matched his aesthetic…

He was thinking too far ahead.

Upon arriving home, he carried the box into the hall. Zheng Feng’s gentle expression held a slightly different smile as he greeted him, making Xie Yuzhan sense something was amiss.

He asked slowly, “Has something happened at home?”

Zheng Feng glanced at the gift box Xie Yuzhan was carrying. It was a fresh sky-blue color. Judging by the volume and estimated weight, he had a pretty good idea of what it was, as Bai Zhi’s preferences were very clearly displayed.

He smiled and said, “You and Bai Zhi have quite the synchronicity.”

This evasive remark made Xie Yuzhan somewhat puzzled. Synchronicity? This was his apology gift to coax someone. Could it be that the little bunny was also preparing something to apologize to him? But what did he have to apologize for?

He asked again, “Where is Bai Zhi?”

Zheng Feng gestured toward the kitchen. “He’s been busy all afternoon. Want to take a look?”

Xie Yuzhan didn’t hesitate, a sense of curiosity inevitably rising in his heart. Was Bai Zhi cooking? Preparing dinner for him? Planning to show goodwill in this way?

He certainly hadn’t tasted the other party’s cooking yet.

Placing the gift box on the dining room table, he slowly walked toward the kitchen. His expression remained calm, but his steps were subtly lighter.

He was filled with unspoken anticipation.

When he reached the kitchen doorway, just one glance made him instinctively halt.

Both people inside had their backs to him. Bai Zhi was wearing a little duck-yellow apron, his hands moving constantly, creating a chaotic beauty that was both flustered and methodical. From his back, one could tell how serious he was.

He was meticulously preparing something.

Even his soft, fluffy hair conveyed a sense of careful attention.

Very thoughtful.

The air was filled with a fresh, warm aroma of food. The setting sun streamed in through the full-length window, bathing the warm white indoor light in bright, cheerful colors.

Standing in the sunset glow, Bai Zhi looked even more adorable.

Although the surroundings were quiet, with only the faint clinking of kitchen utensils and the gurgling of food bubbling, he heard a distinct thud, right in his heart.

He didn’t speak, contemplating quietly.

Bai Zhi hadn’t done anything wrong last night, yet he was actively preparing dinner to show goodwill. Was it because he liked him? Only liking someone would make a person show goodwill or apologize without having made a mistake.

Right?
