Was it not man-made?

Everyone was taken aback.

The security captain quickly handed the tablet computer to Qin Yumo and opened a surveillance video.

The video footage was taken from a surveillance camera in the building across the street. The angle was a bit tricky, but the location of the incident could be barely seen—it was a balcony on the thirteenth floor of the office building next door.

There were several small and exquisite succulent plants placed on the balcony railing.

Just seconds before Zhou Yang made his move, a furry dog ​​paw with a plum blossom pattern appeared.

Suddenly, it reached out from the inside of the balcony and, out of curiosity, rummaged through a ceramic flowerpot.

The flowerpot was already placed on the outer edge, and it was pushed off the balcony by this sudden claw.

It traced an arc and crashed precisely towards Du Zhe's head downstairs...

The owner of that "culprit dog paw" was none other than a Shiba Inu that shook its head, stuck out its tongue, and looked adorable!

After pushing the flowerpot off, it seemed to tilt its head, quite satisfied with its "masterpiece," before wiggling its rear and trotting back into the house.

The entire process was smooth and seamless, full of dramatic coincidences.

"..."

The scene was deathly silent.

Qin Yumo's lips twitched violently as she looked at the "culprit Shiba Inu" in the video.

She had considered countless possibilities, even imagining that Du Zhe might have been murdered in a business feud or retaliated against by a love rival.

The only unexpected thing was that the "culprit" that almost took Du Zhe's life was actually a dog!

Du Zhe also came over and saw the video. He was stunned at first, and then his face turned as red as a pig's liver!

He pointed at the innocent Shiba Inu on the screen, then at the top of his head, and let out a muffled roar of anger.

Anyone who saw his clenched teeth knew that he desperately wanted to rush up to the thirteenth floor and have a "man vs. dog" battle with that Shiba Inu!

What a disgrace! I, this young master, was almost solo-killed by a dog?! How am I supposed to face the underworld if word gets out?!

"Ahem," Qin Yumo cleared her throat, suppressing the absurdity in her heart, her pretty face hardening, and she resumed her cold and stern demeanor as a strong woman.

"Regardless of the cause, an object falling from a height is an object falling from a height! Those responsible must be held accountable to the fullest extent!"

"Go, find this family! Let them discuss with Young Master Du how to resolve this!"

"Yes, yes, Mr. Qin!"

The security captain, feeling like he'd been granted a pardon, hurriedly nodded and bowed, then led his men back to the office building in a flurry of activity.

Du Zhe's eyes were already blazing with fury.

He glared fiercely in the direction of the thirteenth floor.

Although they couldn't speak, their expressions said it all—this family was in deep trouble!

We're in big trouble!

If I don't make them lose everything, I'll change my name!

Zhou Yang watched from the side, feeling both amused and exasperated.

Goodness, did Du Zhe forget to check the almanac before going out?

I almost got taken down by a dog repairman; my luck is just unbelievable.

But then again, that family really deserved it.

If you don't keep a close eye on your own dog and don't seal the windows properly, you'll almost cause a fatal accident. You'll have to pay compensation.

However, Zhou Yang's purpose for this trip was to pick up the car, and now that he had already saved the male supporting character, he was too lazy to stay and watch the show any longer.

"Alright, since Young Master Du still has matters to attend to, we'll take our leave now."

Zhou Yang tugged at Xu Yao, who was watching with great interest, and said, "Let's go get the car."

"Ahhh! Ah!"

Upon hearing that Zhou Yang was leaving, Du Zhe panicked. He grabbed Zhou Yang's clothes with one hand and pointed desperately at his mouth with the other, his eyes full of pleading.

Seeing Du Zhe's pitiful look, Qin Yumo had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Mr. Zhou, do you think Du Zhe... could he..."

She paused, somewhat hesitant to speak, but still asked on Du Zhe's behalf, "Could you... help him untie it now?"

Zhou Yang raised an eyebrow, meeting Du Zhe's puppy-dog eyes that seemed to say, "Big boss, save me!" and "I'll kowtow to you if you untie me!"

His lips twitched almost imperceptibly, but he finally nodded: "Okay."

Before he finished speaking, he moved swiftly and once again, as fast as a ghost, lightly brushed a certain acupoint on Du Zhe's neck.

"Cough...cough cough!"

Du Zhe felt the invisible cotton ball in his throat disappear instantly, and a long-lost feeling of relief surged up.

He coughed violently a few times, finally managing to utter a complete sound, "I...I can speak! Haha! Brother Zhou! You're truly my second father!"

He was so excited that he was crying his eyes out, and he almost performed a sliding knee slide for Zhou Yang on the spot.

"Brother Zhou, I can't thank you enough! Give me your bank account number, and I'll transfer 100 million yuan to you as soon as I get back. Consider it a small token of my appreciation!"

Zhou Yang waved his hand, his expression indifferent: "It was nothing, not worth mentioning."

"How can that be! Brother Zhou, you saved me and even showed me your amazing skills..."

Du Zhe wanted to say more.

“Alright,” Zhou Yang interrupted him, “you should deal with your ‘unexpected disaster’ first, we’re leaving now.”

After saying that, he ignored Du Zhe's attempts to persuade him to stay, and pulled Xu Yao around as they headed towards the sales hall.

Qin Yumo watched Zhou Yang and Xu Yao's departing figures, then glanced at Du Zhe beside her, who was still excitedly going about his business, and sighed inwardly.

Du Zhe, to put it nicely, is simple-minded; to put it bluntly, he's a bit dim-witted.

As his nominal fiancée, she really couldn't stand idly by and do nothing about this mess.

Alas, what a tragic fate!

She rubbed her temples and said coldly to Du Zhe, "Alright, stop making a fool of yourself here! Hurry up and think of how to negotiate with that dog owner!"

...

As soon as Zhou Yang and Xu Yao stepped into the sales hall, Yu Pingping greeted them with a bright smile.

"Mr. Zhou, Ms. Xu! You're both back! All the formalities have been completed. You just need to sign and put your fingerprint on these documents, and you can drive the Cullinan away anytime!"

Zhou Yang nodded, took the contract and documents handed over by Yu Pingping, and carefully read through them.

After confirming that all terms and conditions, including complimentary maintenance, insurance, and discounts, are in order, please ensure there are no issues.

He then signed his name and pressed his bright red fingerprint.

Then, he took the keys to the Pagani sports car out of his pocket and handed them to Yu Pingping.

"Pagani, please have someone drive it to parking space A008 in the underground parking lot of Jiangjing Xiaoyuan."

Yu Pingping took the keys with both hands and replied repeatedly, "Yes, Mr. Zhou, don't worry, I'll make sure you park it properly. Do you need us to put a car cover on your car?"

"Need not."

Zhou Yang shook his head, took the keys to the Cullinan, and, with Xu Yao in tow, gracefully got into the brand-new Rolls-Royce Cullinan amidst the envious and jealous gazes of the sales staff.

With a deep roar from the engine, the land yacht smoothly sailed out of the 4S store and headed straight for the film crew in the suburbs.
