The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s

Chapter 2253: Chapter 2253

When Jiaojiao woke up the next day, she realized it was already past one in the afternoon, and she was immensely grateful that winter break had started.

When she woke, she found she was the only one in bed, but from the living room, she occasionally heard Duan Xi’s voice, seemingly making phone calls.

Jiaojiao got out of bed. After a night’s rest, she felt much better, though there was still a faint soreness when she walked.

There was no en-suite bathroom in the room, so she had to come out of the room. With a creak of the door, Duan Xi, who was sitting on the sofa attending to matters, immediately looked over. He told the person on the phone, "Let’s leave it at this for now," then hung up and walked over with large strides.

He naturally reached out and pulled the blushing Jiaojiao into his arms, kissed her cheek gently, and asked tenderly, "Anywhere uncomfortable?"

Jiaojiao immediately shook her head, and with some reluctance, pushed him away, then turned to run to the bathroom.

Watching her retreating back as she fled, Duan Xi indulgently smiled but did not follow her.

In the bathroom, Jiaojiao first brushed her teeth and washed her face. Possibly, she was too preoccupied with embarrassment when she rushed in, not noticing the shelf by the sink.

It wasn’t until she finished washing her face and reached for the towel did she notice the swaying, all too familiar little clothes!

The little clothes were clearly washed. Because it was too cold outside, Duan Xi had hung them indoors where it was warm, and in just a morning, they were almost dry.

"..." Jiaojiao.

Looking at the little clothes fluttering freely before her eyes, the feeling was completely different from when she was a child and saw clothes that she dirtied and Duan Xi washed.

As a child, she truly felt embarrassed and ashamed.

But now, beyond those feelings, there was unstoppable sweetness.

Duan Xi must have meticulously planned this for a long time, so the villa had everything, from clothes, shoes, toiletries, skincare products, to jewelry — everything Jiaojiao might need.

When she came out after freshening up, lunch was already laid out on the living room table.

Duan Xi came over, holding a glass of honey water already prepared: "Drink some water first, then eat."

Jiaojiao looked at the bountiful dishes on the table, took small sips of the honey water, and asked Duan Xi, "Brother Xi, did you go out to buy this?"

"No, I had it delivered." Duan Xi served her a bowl of black chicken soup.

This house had just started being lived in. The two had just gone through so much; though she slept through the morning, Duan Xi couldn’t bear to leave, so he arranged for the food to be made and delivered that morning.

Jiaojiao nodded and didn’t inquire further. She was too hungry, only half-finishing the honey water before starting to eat. The dishes Duan Xi chose were evidently nourishing, and as Jiaojiao ate, she couldn’t help but think of last night’s entanglements, her face blushing.

After eating, Duan Xi told Jiaojiao to watch TV first. When he returned from tidying up the table, he saw Jiaojiao leaning half on the sofa, typing away on her phone.

He moved forward, sat on the sofa too, and pulled her into his lap, holding her securely from behind.

On Jiaojiao’s phone, a message was clearly displayed: "Jiaojiao, let’s go to the movies. A new film’s out today. Didn’t your school just start winter break yesterday?" - Yu Rou.

"Brother Xi, shall we go?" Jiaojiao waved her phone, asking Duan Xi, who was holding her from behind.
