Chapter 141: Jealousy
Seeing that she insisted on this, Lin Zheng no longer insisted, just nodded and took the lead in holding the kitten in the direction of the cold palace.
Jiang Ning was by his side, walking side by side with him, but his attention was on the little milk cat in Lin Zheng's arms.
The soft clump of white fur didn't seem to be used to being held like this, and kept twisting around in the crook of Lin Zheng's arm, the little pink nose moved slightly, as if it smelled something, turned around, and its paws kept grabbing the robe on Lin Zheng's chest.
Jiang Ning knew in his heart that it smelled the smell of snacks in Lin Zheng's arms, and laughed out loud, "It's so clever." ”
The corners of Lin Zheng's mouth hooked upwards without a trace, bending in a somewhat gentle arc.
The kitten kept scratching at the shirt on his chest with its paws, and its long nails grabbed into the fabric of the garment, pulling out the filaments.
Lin Zheng didn't seem to care about this, his thumb was slightly cocked in his arms around the kitten's hand, and his fingertips gently flicked at the kitten's neck, while his other hand patted its furry back, as if to soothe it.
Jiang Ning looked at this scene, she only felt cute in her heart, her hand hanging by her side curled up and released, and finally she couldn't bear to raise her hand, and patted it on the top of the kitten's head lightly.
Unexpectedly, the kitten was startled by her sudden touch, trembled all over, broke free from Lin Zheng's embrace and jumped onto the palace road.
Jiang Ning glanced at Lin Zheng, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and wanted to say something but couldn't say it in the end.
Lin Zheng smiled helplessly, and took out the bottle of snacks from his arms, "Don't mind, Niangniang, this kitten has just left its mother, and it is not used to being close to people." “
She nodded slightly, silently watched Lin Zheng skillfully pour the snacks into his hands, bent over towards the kitten, the kitten who was originally frightened and shrunk by the wall saw his appearance, and finally let go of his vigilance, raised his paws, and slowly paced forward with a graceful gait.
Seeing this, Lin Zheng turned his head and handed the snack bottle in his hand to Jiang Ning, motioning for her to try it too.
Jiang Ning felt very curious, and learned from Lin Zheng's appearance, and sure enough, the kitten also released his suspicions with her, and slowly paced towards her.
Seeing that the kitten's mouth was about to reach her hand, it instantly reversed its direction and pounced towards Jiang Ning's thigh.
She looked down and saw that the kitten was propping up its upper body, and from time to time it was playing with the mink tail on her waist with its paws, and the long tail was cocked, making the back of Jiang Ning's hand itch slightly.
"You like this?" She pointed to the ferret tail around her waist, and she reached out to remove the ferret tail from her waist.
The kitten propped herself up, waving her front paws, her eyes fixed on the mink tail in her hand.
Jiang Ning put the ferret tail in front of the kitten, raised it high, and repeated several times, the kitten fell down and jumped up under the guidance of her hand, and so on, not only did not feel tired, but became more and more excited.
Jiang Ning was a little tired, she looked up at Lin Zheng in front of her, and saw the gentle smile on his face, and then she suddenly realized that she had almost forgotten Lin Zheng's big thing.
She smiled and casually handed the ferret tail in her hand to Lin Zheng, and the kitten also pounced towards Lin Zheng with the tail.
"Blame me, I forgot the hour while having fun with it, without further ado, let's go."
Lin Zheng nodded slightly, he held the cat in one hand and the ferret tail in the other to tease it, trying his best to divert the kitten's attention and make it stop grabbing his clothes.
The two of them were like this, one holding the cat, the other looking at it with a smile, and before they knew it, they walked to the door of the cold palace.
At this time, Mu Jingzhao had been waiting at the gate of the cold palace for a long time, originally he had planned very well, thinking that after Jiang Ning came back, he would be able to give her this kitten and give her this surprise.
After all, this hunt can't be held every day, and he doesn't have so much time to accompany her, so after thinking about it, he went to find such a small thing to pass Jiang Ning's time.
Unexpectedly, he waited left and right, neither waiting for Lin Zheng's figure nor Jiang Ning's trace.
Just when he finally couldn't wait, he walked to the door to see what happened from time to time, when he came across such a scene.
Lin Zheng held the kitten, with a gentle smile, holding a snow-white lump in his hand, teasing the cat in his arms from time to time, while Jiang Ning walked side by side with him, her smile was bright, and her eyes always fell on the cat in his arms.
The two were close to each other's shoulders and were intimately attached to each other.
As if sensing Mu Jingzhao's eyes, Lin Zheng raised his head slightly, bowed and saluted, "Meet the emperor." ”
At this time, Mu Jingzhao's face was already extremely dark, his jaw was tense, his green tendons were slightly convex, and he raised his chin at Lin Zheng.
Lin Zheng got up and subconsciously wanted to put away the ferret tail in his hand, but he instantly realized that it was Jiang Ning's thing, so he solemnly handed it to Jiang Ning, "Thank you, Niangniang." ”
At this moment, Mu Jingzhao instantly discovered that what the other party was holding in his hand was the ferret tail he had given to Jiang Ning not long ago.
His chest heaved violently, and his jaw tightened.
"It's too late for the subordinates, and I ask the emperor to atone for his sins." Lin Zheng bowed down and hugged the kitten in his hand in front of Mu Jingzhao.
Lin Zheng's words instantly evoked some bad memories of Jiang Ning, she subconsciously glanced at Mu Jingzhao, only to see that his jaw was tight, and his face was terrifyingly black.
"That's right, it was the concubine who accidentally bumped into Commander Lin on the road, and the kitten was frightened and ran away, we looked for it for a while, so it was delayed for a while."
She explained in a bit of a panic, as if she hadn't even noticed that she took two steps forward and blocked in front of Lin Zheng.
Mu Jingzhao's face was not soothed by half a minute, but was a little heavier, he stared at the little milk cat that Lin Zheng was holding in both hands, the kitten was snow-white, his eyes were blue, and he was cute and round.
Lin Zheng's action of holding it seemed to make it a little uncomfortable, and it kept shaking its paws, as if trying to break free of Lin Zheng's hand.
Jiang Ning stared at Mu Jingzhao, and inexplicably felt that the other party's gaze had a posture of wanting to throw this kitten out.
Her heart trembled, and she hurriedly stepped forward, "Your Majesty, it's still young and ignorant, if it knows that the emperor is waiting for it, even if it gives it ten guts, it won't dare to play on the road." ”
Hearing this, Mu Jingzhao's face slowed down slightly, he hesitated a little, and stretched out his hand, wanting to catch the kitten in Lin Zheng's hand, but unexpectedly, the moment his hands were about to touch it.
The kitten bared its teeth, made a threatening "drink-" from its mouth, struggled a few times, and slammed its paws on the back of Mu Jingzhao's hand.
