Rumor has it that Young Master Lu, who avoids women, actively sought out Qi Nuan, who was facing financial difficulties, and signed a marriage contract.
She thought this marriage was merely h...
Really, that’s a nice thought. Even if pie falls from the sky, it wouldn’t fall like this.
Qi Nuan laughed at her own naive thoughts.
It seems that I have been with Lu Yin for a long time, and even my appetite has become bigger due to his influence.
"Are you happy about something?"
Special Assistant Zhao, who was always cold and expressionless, actually took the initiative to talk to Qi Nuan.
"Why do you say that?"
"Didn't you just giggle?"
"Oh, is it that obvious?"
Qi Nuan stroked his chin and teased him cheerfully, "I'm just a small department manager, but I'm naturally very happy to have the boss's special assistant Zhao personally serve as my driver and escort."
Zhao Yu frowned in the rearview mirror, as if he was speechless about her words. He stopped talking and concentrated on driving.
Qi Nuan was in a good mood and the smile on her face grew even wider.
After driving for about another hour, they finally arrived at Gu Tingze's villa.
Although this place is still within the city, it is quite remote. It is surrounded by bare and gray mountains in winter. Apart from this villa area, there are almost no ordinary families around, and it looks a bit desolate.
Qi Nuan got out of the car with the heater on and was immediately startled by the temperature which was much colder than the city center.
She wrapped her coat tightly around her and followed Zhao Yu towards a detached villa in front.
Perhaps because it was winter, the courtyard here was neglected and the trees and woods in front of and behind the houses looked a bit deserted. The water in the small pool in the courtyard had not been drained and was frozen solid.
To Qi Nuan's surprise, the remote control she was holding was not the key to the house.
Zhao Yu curled his lips at her fruitless attempt to press the remote control, walked to the side of the gate, and entered a string of passwords into the electronic lock.
"It's all written on the property documents. Manager Qi should be more careful when reading them in the future."
It seemed that they had finally turned the tables on the disadvantage they had just faced. Special Assistant Zhao was very happy and walked in first.
Qi Nuan breathed a sigh of relief. Is it really okay that the second-in-command beside Lu Yin is so childishly honest?
They were delayed on the road for quite a long time, and it was already dark. This place was close to the mountains, and the villa, which was seldom visited, was gloomy.
"Da Da Da" "Shua Shua Shua"
Something flashed by in the dim living room as fast as the wind.
Qi Nuan was startled and couldn't help but take a step back.
Zhao Yu glanced at her, then continued walking forward indifferently and turned on the lights in the villa.
"Woo woo~"
Following the sound, Qi Nuan saw a part of the dog's face peeking out from behind the sofa.
She took a few steps forward, and Zhao Yu hurried forward to stop her: "Be careful or they will attack you."
"It's okay. I had dogs when I was a kid. If they wanted to attack people, they would have rushed over when we came in. They wouldn't have waited until now to hide."
Qi Nuan indicated that it was okay and walked over. Zhao Yu did not try to stop her. He just stood by the door and watched, but did not go near with her.
After getting around the sofa, Qi Nuan could clearly see the two dogs behind him. They were both large dogs of the same breed and were of similar size.
When they saw that the human had no intention of attacking, they both shrank back a little, seeming a little scared.
Qi Nuan observed for a while and found the dog's food bowl on one side of the living room. Although some places were a little messy due to them turning over and over, there was no trace of excrement.
It seems that this is not a stray dog that ran in accidentally, but a pet that has been kept here.
Qi Nuan sighed as she looked at the dogs' messy fur. Gu Tingze had passed away some time ago. During this period, Gu Hui and Lu Yin's people had come to check on them, but no one had taken them away.
She recalled her habit of raising dogs as a child and bent down to call out to the dogs.
The two big dogs looked at her warily, their eyes moving back and forth while their bodies remained curled up without moving.
Qi Nuan looked at the dogs wagging their tails and judged that they had no intention of attacking at all, so he simply moved closer and squatted down beside them.
These two dogs must be starving in this house without their owner.
Looking at the dog with protruding bones, Qi Nuan couldn't help but feel distressed.
She stretched out her palm, and the puppy in front of her slowly came over with a "huffing and puffing" sound, and licked her palm with its tongue.
"Hey, are you hungry?" Qi Nuan stretched out her fingers and scratched his chin. "We'll take you out for something to eat after we finish our business."
I don’t know if this dog can understand human language, but as soon as Qi Nuan finished speaking, it pushed its head forward and rubbed her hand harder.
A metal nameplate bumped into Qi Nuan's hand. She picked it up and saw that it said "Peppa Pig".
"Peppa?! Is his name George?"
As she spoke, she took a step forward and looked at the nameplate on the other dog's neck. Sure enough, it said "George".
Ha, the two dogs are named Peppa and George, which means they are brothers.
Qi Nuan smiled and called the two dogs' names again.
Perhaps they liked their names very much, the two dogs immediately became excited, circling around Qi Nuan with their tongues sticking out and wagging their tails quickly to show their friendliness.
Qi Nuan played with them for a while, then remembered that he had a mission, so he stood up and began to observe and search in the room.
It’s strange to say, Zhao Yu was standing far away and didn’t approach her, but when she started walking, he followed her.
