When the leg bones were being fixed, the kitten meowed again, probably because of the pain.
It made a delicate voice, twisted its body and tried to struggle, and kept waving its moving front legs.
But as Li Zian said, it still knows what's good and what's good, and it never reaches out to scratch anyone.
Shen Tianshu quickly fixed the kitten's front legs, wiped his sweat and said, "It shouldn't be a big problem if you keep it well."
Li Zian held the tired kitten in one hand and called people in: "Go and prepare some milk cakes."
The waiter soon came in with two bowls of milk cakes: "Master Shizi and Madam Tong, please use them slowly."
Li Zian was speechless looking at the two bowls of milk cake, but he really didn't explain clearly, so he had to say again: "Bring in another small plate. How can a cat eat such a big bowl?"
Only then did the waiter realize that he wanted milk cake not because he was hungry, but because he wanted to feed the cat. He quickly went to get a shallow plate, and when he came back he thoughtfully brought a small bowl of water.
Shen Tianshu put a spoonful of milk cake on the plate, and Li Zian put the cat next to the plate, almost smashing the cat's face into the milk cake.
But this also happened to let the kitten smell the milk cake.
It immediately put down its guard, dove into the plate, and ate hungrily.
The kitten's injured front legs could not bend and were dragged awkwardly by its side. The other paw was firmly on the plate, as if it was afraid that someone would snatch it away while it was eating.
Seeing that the kitten was eating happily, Shen Tianshu said with a smile: "It's good if it can eat, it will make life easier. The prince is so careful, I didn't even think of preparing some food for the kitten."
Li Zian said expressionlessly: "When I grabbed it just now, I felt that its belly was flat. It must have been injured and I haven't found anything to eat for a long time."
Shen Tianshu found Li Zian's attitude very strange. On the surface, he seemed to be dismissive of the kitten, but his eyes were always locked on the kitten, and he even paid careful attention to the fact that it might be hungry.
The kitten quickly swept away the milk cake on the plate and even licked the bottom of the plate clean.
The kitten was a little unfinished, eagerly looking at more milk cakes in the bowl next to it, dragging its somewhat inconvenient front legs to move over.
Li Zian glanced at it and saw that its originally flat belly was now rounded, so he decisively took the milk cake away and placed it on the small table beside it.
The kitten raised its head and looked at the person who had taken the food away from it, but its fierce and fierce appearance not only failed to scare people, but actually made it look even cuter.
Li Zian's attitude was very firm: "You have already eaten a lot, you can't eat anymore."
The little cat didn't understand what he said, so he stumbled towards Li Zian and rubbed his hand like a baby without any guidance.
Li Zian was so rubbed by it that he froze and lost consciousness for a moment, but he quickly reacted and raised his hand to push the kitten to Shen Tianshu opposite.
The kitten opened its eyes wide, as if it couldn't understand why the person who was giving him food just now turned around and rejected him so ruthlessly.
Shen Tianshu reached out and gently held the kitten's body, gently stroked its little head with his fingers, and smoothed its fur.
So the kitten quickly forgot about the milk cake and snored comfortably under Shen Tianshu's hands.
Shen Tianshu said: "Your Majesty, have you ever raised a cat before?"
Li Zian was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, as if he didn't want to say anything, but after hesitating for a moment, he still said in a low voice: "Well, I raised him when he was a child."
"No wonder he is so good at dealing with kittens!" Shen Tianshu teased the kitten with his fingertips and soon started playing with it.
Li Zian looked at the kitten, but his eyes were a little vacant, as if he was thinking about something else through it.
After a long while, he said: "When I was a child in the capital, I had a lion cat.
As soon as he said this, Li Zian's expression softened visibly.
Although the voice was low, it also contained a rare tenderness.
But after only saying a few words, he immediately frowned and stopped talking.
And just as Li Zian was talking, the kitten was no longer addicted to Shen Tianshu's caress, and crawled towards Li Zian's direction while dragging its injured leg.
Shen Tianshu was afraid that it would accidentally fall off the table, so he quickly stretched out his hand to protect it and said: "Since the prince has raised a cat, the kitten seems to like you very much, why not..."
Li Zian refused before she could finish her words: "No, I don't like it. If you like it, just keep it!"
Shen Tianshu was stunned by his attitude. He closed his fingertips to trap the kitten to prevent it from getting closer to Li Zian.
Li Zian also seemed to feel that his attitude just now was too harsh, and he felt a little annoyed.
Unexpectedly, Shen Tianshu said very considerately: "Yes, the prince is busy with official duties. Even if he keeps a cat, he probably won't have time to take care of it. I'd better take it back to recuperate first."
Li Zian clearly felt that the warm atmosphere between the two of them just because of the cat seemed to be ruined by him again.
He frowned in annoyance, secretly angry with himself.
His living environment and personality since childhood made it difficult for him to open up and express his true thoughts.
It is precisely because of this that many people think he is indifferent by nature.
Presumably at this time, in Shen Tianshu's eyes, he should also see the alienation and distance that he has seen many times in the eyes of others!
Li Zian slowly raised his eyes, even feeling a little panicked in his heart.
But when he finally met Shen Tianshu's eyes, the other person smiled sweetly at him and even raised his uninjured cat's paw and shook it.
Not only were there no negative emotions in his big, clear eyes, but they seemed to be somewhat comforting.
He suddenly felt the desire to talk, opened his mouth, and many words that had been suppressed in his heart for many years poured out naturally.
"It was brought to the house and raised as a child. It has long white hair and one blue and one yellow eye. It is very beautiful.
"My mother named it Hydrangea, but I secretly called it Jade Dragon. It was still so young at the time, but it soon learned that both names were its own.
"Jade Dragon has been the dominant figure in the mansion since he was a child. He runs around the mansion all day long, but the servants all treat him like a little master and pamper him..."
"And it is very smart. No matter where it is in the house, as long as I ring the bell, it will immediately come back to me.
"Yulong is also an expert at catching rats. During the years he was in the palace, there was never any rat infestation in the palace.
“When I was a child, I lived alone in a tall and empty dormitory, and he always stayed with me.
"Sleeping with it in my arms in winter will make the bed feel warm..."
Li Zian was obviously lost in memories, with a happy look on his face, but it soon turned into an unspeakable pain.
Shen Tianshu had been listening intently before, but now he suddenly felt a little uneasy.
