So since she's already in such a terrible state, let's not call her a little idiot anymore.

Upon hearing his pet owner's name, Doubao instinctively looked up and around.

Where is it? Where is it?

Has their human finally come back to pick it up?

After excitedly looking around, they found no trace of Xiao Anman.

Disappointed and a little angry, Doubao refused to drink the milk in the basin and just circled around the legs of the two Zhong brothers.

I clearly heard my pet owner's name just now, so where did these two people take my pet owner?

Let's first applaud the steadfast and unyielding Grandpa Doubao.

Despite being pampered with good food and drink by the Zhong brothers for so long, Doubao remained completely unmoved.

They clearly distinguish between the pet owner and the "passerby A" and "passerby B" who come up to feed them.

Zhong Jiayi interpreted the little snowball circling around his legs as a sign that it missed Xiao Anman. After spending these few days with Doubao, he had come to understand the meaning behind some of Doubao's unusual behaviors.

"Brother, should we go over now?"

Holding the steamed bun, Zhong Jiayi tried her best to make her beautiful, icy blue eyes look less anxious.

Although he always prides himself on being a little man and takes his older brother as his role model, An An's 'lack of toughness' at this moment is very inconsistent with his usual style.

I need help. How can I maintain my image in front of my brother without it crumbling? I need an answer urgently.

Zhong Jiarui is a big shot of his caliber; he can easily see through his younger brother's thoughts.

Furthermore, he was also very concerned about Xiao Anman's matter.

So he immediately agreed, following Zhong Jiayi's suggestion: "Okay, pack your things, take Doubao with you, and we'll go to the Gu family together."

"good!"

Actually, the two brothers could go anywhere dressed like that; all they needed to pack were Doubao's things.

Doubao's injuries hadn't fully healed yet, and Zhong Jiarui was thinking of keeping it at home to nurse it back to health.

But seeing how excited Doubao was as soon as it heard Xiao Anman's name, Zhong Jiarui decided to fulfill its wish as soon as possible and send Doubao to see its owner.

I've only stayed for a few days, but I've already packed a bunch of things for Doubao.

The food, supplies, and toys they have are no less than those of Xiao Anman, their proper master.

"I'm taking you to see your master, you silly dog."

As Zhong Jiayi, who was already stroking Doubao's back quite naturally, mentioned "silly dog," a smile had already appeared on his face without Doubao noticing.

"Woof woof woof".

"Awoo~"

The fierce old man retorted online, "Don't think I don't know what you mean, you who bullied our cat owner."

Even if you've been doing a good job feeding people lately, it doesn't mean you've got a get-out-of-jail-free card, woof woof woof.

"You're still being mean to me. I've fed and pampered you for so long, and you don't even know how to be grateful. You're such a stupid dog."

Knowing that Xiao Anman was safe and sound, the heavy weight that had been pressing on their hearts was finally lifted without them even realizing it.

Zhong Jiayi regained her former energy and even started bickering with Grandpa Doubao.

"Awoo, awoo."

I won't argue with you, but what do you mean by calling me a stupid dog twice?

Doubao used its little head to press against Zhong Jiayi's belly.

Because of his weakened state, Grandpa Doubao's fighting ability had decreased significantly, so for Zhong Jiayi, who was "attacked" by Yue, Doubao didn't feel anything at all.

If we absolutely have to respect what Grandpa Doubao said about his feelings, then at most it's the feeling of a massage.

"Stop teasing it, its wounds haven't fully healed yet."

Upon receiving Zhong Jiarui's reminder, the little boy, who was playing a headbutting game with the silly dog, suddenly realized that the dog's injuries hadn't healed yet. What if something happened to the dog on the way to Gu Jia's house?

That silly dog ​​must be in a lot of pain.

And that silly boy will definitely be very sad because of the stupid dog.

Thinking about it, it seemed that neither of the two was easy to deal with, so after considering it, Zhong Jiayi used her hand to separate herself from Doubao.

"Just a little quiet, and we'll see An'an soon."

Like the two Zhong brothers, Doubao, who always kept his master in his heart, would only become quiet when he heard An'an's name.

The scenery outside the car window was rushing past, and there were two other people on their way to the Gu family's residence in Yujinwan, just like the Zhong brothers.

Helian Min and Gu Tingxiao rushed back as quickly as possible after receiving the news.

No one in the hospital could stop Gu Tingxiao, who had not yet fully met the discharge criteria.

At this moment, someone who wants to see their daughter can't care about anything else.

Because he wanted Xiao Anman to meet them at home, and didn't want her to see his worry the first thing she saw when she returned after being away for so many days, Gu Tingxiao hurriedly changed his clothes before rushing back to the Gu family home.

They threw the hospital gown he was wearing into the very back of the closet.

Helian Min had gone out to find Xiao Anman and walked a long way by himself. When he received Gu Tingxiao's notification, he was still very far away from Yujin Bay.

He was going to be a little late getting back, but that was alright because Xiao Anman hadn't arrived yet.
