Chereads / Leo n‘ Kitty / Chapter 15 - Chapter 15 Punished to Stand

Chapter 15 - Chapter 15 Punished to Stand

Sophie not only kissed Leon but, in her panic, licked him as well. At this moment, she was standing in the corner, facing the wall for punishment, yet her mind was still stuck on that heart - pounding moment just now. The moment they stared at each other in silence, it was as if the air had been sucked away, and the tense atmosphere made Sophie's heart race wildly. All she could think about was escaping. In her panic, her feet trampled haphazardly on Leon's body, and her hind paws landed precisely on his arm and shoulder. Leon moved instinctively, and Sophie lost her balance, crashing uncontrollably onto him, letting out a series of flustered "meows". However, Leon completely ignored her cries at this moment. He firmly grabbed Sophie's constantly wagging tail, gave a slight tug, and threw her off the bed. Then, Leon sat up, crossed his legs, and placed his hands clasped on his knees, looking down intently at the mischievous cat in front of him. In the dimly lit room, only the faint moonlight filtering through the curtains clearly reflected the smear of the kitten's saliva on his cheek. Sophie looked up at Leon pitifully. In the hazy night, her bright eyes were filled with innocence and unease. Leon stared at her, his gaze deep, as if trying to figure out the reasons behind her actions. After a long time, he finally said nothing. He just got out of bed, grabbed Sophie, and made her face the wall for punishment. The moment Sophie tried to move a bit, Leon's sharp gaze shot over like a sharp arrow, scaring her into standing still immediately, not daring to move at all, and could only obediently accept the punishment from her master. She stared at the wall, constantly replaying the expression on Leon's face in her mind, trying to decipher his emotions: Was it shyness, anger, or something else? Sophie was utterly confused. As a cat, she couldn't understand the mind of her male god at all, which made her feel extremely sad. "Mission completed. Congratulations, you've earned five points." The voice of the short - legged cat system suddenly rang out in her mind. Sophie replied listlessly, "Oh." At this moment, being punished to stand, all she could think about was Leon's reaction, and she really wasn't interested in these five - point rewards. The short - legged cat system seemed to sense her depression: "… Why aren't you happy now that you've completed the mission?" Sophie rolled her eyes silently in her heart and said irritably, "Don't you know I'm being punished to stand by Leon now? He must hate me, right? I'm worried that Leon will throw me out of his house tomorrow and doesn't want to keep me anymore." Just thinking about this possibility made her heart tighten. The system was silent for a while, then spoke up to remind her, "It should not be the case." "What should not be the case?" "Leon should not be angry with you." Sophie's eyes lit up instantly, and she asked excitedly, "Then why? Why did he punish me to stand?" She was eager to know the answer. The system seemed to be stumped. After a pause, to comfort her, it found an excuse: "It should be because he was embarrassed and angry, just like you were in the afternoon." Sophie was skeptical: "… Is that true or false?" "False." "Damn it, just disappear. I don't need your consolation." Sophie was both angry and annoyed, feeling that the system was just making fun of her. The system clicked its tongue helplessly: "Don't think too much. At most, we'll see what happens to you tomorrow. Anyway, I don't think Leon is angry." Sophie replied dejectedly, still convinced in her heart that Leon was angry with her, and the feeling of grievance spread in her heart. On Leon's side, after lying back on the bed again, he subconsciously reached out and touched the cheek that Sophie had kissed just now. The touch of that moment seemed to still linger on his fingertips, and he always felt that the warmth of Sophie's lips was still on his face. At the moment the cat touched his cheek, as Sophie got closer and closer, Leon clearly felt that his heart rate suddenly accelerated, and he even had some other reactions that he couldn't quite understand. He couldn't tell what he was feeling. Why would his heart race just because a cat got close to him? But Leon knew that this was by no means an ordinary phenomenon. He realized that he might really have been too indulgent with this cat he raised. He gently pressed the position on his cheek. At some point, the saliva had been wiped clean, but the warmth there seemed to remain, making him couldn't help but let his imagination run wild. Looking up at the cat obediently facing the wall to reflect, Leon couldn't help but laugh self - deprecatingly. He also didn't understand why he was so childish as to punish her to stand. Perhaps the cat just thought it was fun and kissed him. Leon shook his head, trying to shake off these chaotic thoughts. He pursed his lips and looked at the pitch - black ceiling, falling into deep thought. It was not until the early hours of the morning that he finally drifted off to sleep after tossing and turning. The night grew deeper, and occasionally, the calls of night birds came from outside the window. Sophie, while being punished to stand, unconsciously fell asleep on the floor, her small body curled up into a ball, looking very cute. The first light of dawn peeked through the window, and the morning sun gently spilled into the room. In the room, both the human and the cat were still immersed in a deep sleep, showing no signs of waking up. Leon turned over, turned his back to the sunlight, and continued to sleep soundly. Sophie hardly moved her body at all and still maintained a prone position, sleeping soundly. They had both gone to bed too late last night, so at this moment, both the human and the cat were extremely sleepy. When Benny arrived at Leon's house with his assistant Jayden, Leon hadn't woken up yet. Benny pushed open the door in confusion and walked into the house. The first floor was in complete silence, only the ticking of the wall clock could be heard. Jayden was a bit surprised and asked Benny in a low voice, "Brother Bin, hasn't Brother Leon woken up yet?" Benny looked around and thought for a while, then said, "Probably not." He pointed to the dining room, "Put the breakfast on the table first and clean up. I'll go upstairs and wake Leon up." "Okay." Jayden replied. Jayden was a distant relative of Benny. After graduating, he found a job, but because of his somewhat timid personality, he was always bullied by his colleagues. Later, when Leon needed a new assistant, Benny mentioned it to Leon. After that, Jayden successfully passed the interview and became Leon's assistant. It has been three years now. He has become more and more proficient in this job. Fortunately, Leon's requirements for his assistant were not too strict, so they got along quite harmoniously. Jayden was good at cooking. After the two bought some breakfast outside, Jayden also prepared millet congee in the kitchen. Generally, when Benny was away on business, it was Jayden who was in charge of Leon's diet, and he was also clear about Leon's taste preferences. "By the way." Benny turned around and looked at Jayden, reminding him, "Leon has a cat now. You can also prepare a little something that cats like to eat." He paused and added, "Leon's cat likes to eat human food." Jayden had asked for leave to go home a few days ago because of something at home. At this moment, when he heard that a cat was raised, his expression was full of surprise. He swallowed and asked, "A cat?" Benny nodded, "Yes, you figure it out yourself. You can search online to see what human food cats can eat." "Okay." Jayden replied happily. He actually liked cats very much, but he had never had the opportunity to raise one because of his work. Benny went upstairs to wake Leon up. As soon as he opened the door, Sophie woke up. She turned her head and saw that it was Benny, and meowed weakly, "Meow." Benny looked at her and raised his eyebrows, "Why are you here?" He didn't know that Leon and the cat slept in the same room. This meow woke Leon up. He moved his eyebrows and eyes, and after a few seconds of silence, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at the two people at the door. A flash of surprise appeared in his eyes, "Why are you here?" Benny said helplessly, "To wake you up. You have an awards ceremony today. Now you need to go and try on the dress. Later, you also have to talk to Director Gu about the new movie. Have you forgotten?" Leon's work schedule for this day was extremely full. "Not really." Leon replied. It was just that he had been so disturbed by the cat last night that he didn't think of it for a while. He looked at Benny and said, "Take the cat out first. I'll come down right away." "Okay." Benny walked towards Sophie, bent down, and picked her up to take her to the door. But for some reason, Sophie kept struggling and looking back at Leon, meowing non - stop, "Meow." When she saw Leon frown slightly, she meowed again, "Meow." She didn't want to leave Leon at all. Although she was punished to stand last night, she still liked Leon wholeheartedly. Leon looked at her, was silent for a long time, then got up and walked towards Benny. He reached out and gently stroked her head. Feeling the warmth of her furry head in his palm, Leon chuckled softly and said in a low voice to soothe her, "Be good. I'll come down right away." Hearing this, Sophie immediately stopped struggling. She just stretched out her head and rubbed it against Leon's palm, meowing softly. Her cute and obedient appearance at this moment was enough to make anyone's heart melt. Even Leon was not immune to her charm. Sophie squatted on the ground, eating the delicious breakfast. The tender chicken breast and rich goat milk made her eat with gusto. She turned her head and looked at the three people eating at the table, looking very satisfied. Today's breakfast was the most delicious one she had eaten since she became a cat, and her taste buds were extremely satisfied. She decided that she was going to like the boy who made breakfast for her. "You're so fickle." The voice of the short - legged cat system suddenly sounded. Sophie was startled and said angrily, "Why did you show up?" The system clicked its tongue, and its tone was extremely disdainful, "Can't I show up?" Sophie was speechless and rolled her eyes, "Yes, yes, yes. Is there a new mission? Hurry up and tell me. I'll go and complete it right away." As soon as the mission was mentioned, she immediately became excited. After all, this was not only related to earning points to become human again but also gave her a chance to get close to Leon. "Didn't you just say you liked the person who made breakfast for you?" Sophie was stumped by the question, then immediately explained righteously, "You don't understand. Although the breakfast made by that person is delicious, the ingredients for this breakfast belong to Leon, right? So ultimately, the person I like is still Leon." System: "…" It was completely speechless at her shamelessness. "There's no new mission for now." "Ah, then why did you show up?" System: "Can't I show up even if there's no mission?" Sophie: "… Oh." The system snorted coldly, "All right, there is a new mission, but this mission is rather strange." Sophie was extremely curious, "How is it strange?" "Make Leon hold you and walk the red carpet."
