“Stop here”
The fat cat Spot walked leisurely to a deep rut.
First he stretched out his paws and pulled at it twice, then lowered his head and sniffed, looking thoughtful.
Cade on the side asked curiously: "Did Mr. Cat find something?"
...
The names of monsters are taboo for them, and they usually won't tell others.
Mu Guang and Eri Yi would only occasionally call Madara by his name in private.
The cowboys on the farm, as well as these former Spartans, all respectfully call Madara: Teacher Cat or Master Cat.
They all abide by their duties and have not revealed the secret about this talking cat to the outside world.
It might also be because Mu Guang had threatened them that if they told them, they would be eaten by Madara.
Anyway, only they themselves know about Madara's identity.
...
"Nothing was found." Pretending to be serious, Fat Cat Spot climbed onto Cade nimbly and said confidently: "I'm not a detective, what can I discover by just relying on these ruts!"
This answer left the powerful Spartan warrior speechless. Even a man like Cade, who could remain calm even when the mountain collapsed, still had some facial twitches.
"Okay! Let's move on! Really, I'll probably spend the next few days here."
The fat cat Spot didn't care at all about the "mount" beneath him, and lazily waved his paws and ordered.
Since he promised Mu Guang that he would take good care of his cowboys and protect their safety, Madara has always been a good monster who keeps his word.
Not because Mu Guang promised to cook five portions of braised carp for him... Hmm! Absolutely not!
...
Inside the manor
With the addition of Fat Mao Ban, Muguang's somewhat worried heart was relieved.
Now he was lying on the lounge chair, enjoying the afternoon tea served by Mrs. Lie.
Judging from the current situation, unless there is some extraordinary event, it is impossible for ordinary people to pose any threat to a high-level monster.
...
"In two days I have to go to the supermarket for a big purchase. Come and see if there is anything else you need."
Mrs. Lie held a long list and looked at the lazily fishing boy beside her and said annoyance.
For Lexington, Christmas and New Year's Day are naturally very important, just like Mu Guang prefers the Spring Festival.
The two of them live their own lives. Although the three of them have never been separated, it does not prevent them from paying attention to their respective festivals.
Reunion, reunion, reunion, we are complete.
Mu Guang tried hard to deceive Mrs. Lie into a Spring Festival fan, but Mrs. Lie would drag Mu Guang out to do some shopping every time before Christmas.
The two people refused to admit defeat to each other. When you came and went, they always remembered some new customs and habits, which made the other party uneasy.
...
For example:
"You won't have to put up lights and Christmas trees in the house this year!"
Mu Guang, who was caught by Mrs. Lie, let out a pleading cry.
This is a tall manor with five floors. It can accommodate three people and a cat in total. The living room is big enough to form a basketball team. You can imagine how empty it is.
Mu Guang had wanted to build a small building next to it several times, but Mrs. Lie rejected her every time.
The reason is also very strange. This manor would be just right if the sisters were here.
Please! There are only three people here, so there are no sisters.
...
However, Mrs. Lie rejected Mu Guang's proposal many times on the grounds that the space was too small for her to stretch her body, and that the newly built building contained formaldehyde.
In addition, there were no servants at home. Except for cleaning, Mu Guang and Eryi didn't even go anywhere else during the rest of the time.
The place is big enough to hide and seek.
...
If it was just that, forget it, but every year during Christmas, Mrs. Lie must decorate the whole house with a Christmas atmosphere.
Oh my god, there must be fifty or sixty rooms on the five floors, as well as a huge living room covering the first and second floors.
To install them all with lanterns would literally kill Mu Guang.
...
"You are the master of the house, so you must decorate it!"
Mrs. Lie said indifferently. She didn't care whether the house was big or not. What she cared about more was that she would receive the guests as the hostess.
...
Looking at Lexington, who imitated Eliyi and pouted her little mouth, combining cuteness and beauty to be charming, Mu Guang finally nodded and agreed with a reluctant look on his face.
Why do I always have tears in my eyes? It’s because I love Mrs. Li deeply.
What if we also decorate with lanterns this year?
This has to be done early, there are still four or five days before Christmas, and it will be Christmas by the time he finishes decorating.
...
"This is my good commander~ But you can't apply for off-site assistance!"
Lexington kissed the young man's face with satisfaction and said softly.
Looking at the embarrassed look on his face, how could Lexington not know the Xiao Jiujiu in this man's heart.
"Okay, okay" Mu Guang sighed and got up from the recliner. Mrs. Lie was really his common nemesis with Eriki and Fat Cat Madara.
"I promise not to ask the Shadow Army to do my work for me."
"That's pretty much it!"
The girl finally smiled with satisfaction. She took Mu Guang's hand and ran towards the warehouse behind.
In fact, for Mrs. Lie, it doesn't matter if she can't celebrate Christmas. All she wants is the feeling of home.
I just want the boy to be with me all the time.
...
Recalling the lively scene in the Harbor Command Post every Christmas, Lexington felt a little sad.
"I wonder how everyone is doing. Are you still waiting for the commander to show up?"
...
"Lexington! Where are these ribbons hanging?"
Mu Guang looked at Warehouse No. 1, where a canteen could be opened, took a deep breath and started picking through it.
Picking up a bunch of broken light bulbs that were intertwined, Mu Guang shook the dust on them and asked Lexington.
...
"This is a red lantern. It needs to be hung on the wall first, but not until the Christmas decorations are completed!"
Mrs. Lie pointed to the various tools in the warehouse that had been gathering dust for a year, and they were carefully arranged.
"These Christmas wreaths are decorations. One should be posted on every room door...and this one..."
...
"Eriyi! The hanging over there is crooked~ Come a little to the left! Commander, don't move!"
Riding on Mu Guang's shoulders, Eryi really enjoyed this kind of activity.
It's a pity that Teacher Cat is not here, otherwise it would be more interesting to watch him and Mu Guang bickering.
...
"Oh!" Who is arranging me? Fat Cat Spot, who had already led the team to the junction of the path and the highway, was lazily supervising the cowboys sealing the road with clanging sounds, while feeling happy in his heart.
How could he forget that Christmas was coming soon? He shuddered a little when he thought of Mrs. Lie with a gentle face saying the coldest and coldest words.
"If we can't get it done before Christmas Eve! I'll hang you up! Don't worry~ Commander, it's definitely not life-threatening!"
...
"What a terrible woman!"
Fat Cat Spot said happily while licking the hair on his body.
