The person who pounced on him was none other than the little girl who had just run away shyly.
Using all four limbs, Shen Huan wrapped her arms around the man's neck, hooked her legs around his waist, and clung to him tightly like an octopus.
The scene seemed familiar. Thinking of something, Fu Siyan lowered his eyes and met a pair of dark eyes as expected.
A domestic pet dog squatted on the ground, sticking out its tongue and watching the two people's intimate actions eagerly.
"rhubarb."
As the footsteps approached, an elderly woman's voice echoed in the air.
The old woman was dressed simply, with half of her hair gray, and looked to be in her sixties.
When he heard his owner calling him, Dahuang wagged his tail and walked to the old woman, raising his head and barking a few times at the two people hugging each other.
There are only a dozen or so households in Huangtu Village, and they are neighbors. How could Liu Cui'e, a villager, not recognize them?
Moreover, the two men were dressed in luxurious clothes and it was obvious that they were not local residents here.
Today is no longer the agricultural era of the past. Most young people have gone to the city to work hard, and there are almost only old people left in the village.
If someone's grandchildren are successful in their careers and come back to visit their elderly parents, this is possible.
"Are you two here to visit relatives?" Liu Cui'e looked at the two of them and asked tentatively with suspicion.
Noticing someone coming, Shen Huan jumped off the man with a red face, feeling a little embarrassed.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, he saw Da Huang sticking out his tongue beside the old woman. Smoke was coming out of his feet, and he slipped and hid behind the man.
"Is this girl afraid of dogs?"
Fu Siyan nodded on behalf of Shen Huan, "My girlfriend is quite timid."
The man had a solemn and cold look on his face, and he didn't look easy to get along with.
She was afraid that the two of them came from the capital. When she saw them just now, Liu Cui'e couldn't help but feel alert.
Seeing the little girl hiding behind the man, and the man smiling faintly with eyes full of doting, Liu Cui'e felt that they were somewhat down-to-earth.
The alertness in my heart faded a little.
"Don't be afraid, Da Huang has a good personality and won't bite you at all."
Hearing this, Shen Huan grabbed the man's arm and poked his little head out angrily.
"Dogs are very human-like. Dahuang seems to like you very much. You can pet him."
Chen Huan looked at Da Huang, who squatted down obediently after listening to what the old woman said, and raised his little head to look at Fu Siyan.
"Go ahead and try if you want. I'm here."
Being afraid of dogs has always been a knot in her heart, so it would be good if she could take this opportunity to untie that knot.
After getting the man's answer, Shen Huan mustered up the courage to walk out from behind him, holding his hand, and taking weak steps towards Dahuang.
"Woof woof woof!" The barking sounds of the dog in his memory kept echoing in his mind. Shen Huan pursed his lips tightly, and a thin layer of sweat seeped out of his forehead.
Feeling her nervousness, Fu Siyan held her hand tightly and took the lead in rubbing Dahuang's dog's head.
"It really won't bite. I've tried it for you."
After that, he took her hand and said, "I'm here, I won't let you get hurt."
His palm was broad and powerful. Wrapped in his warmth, Shen Huan felt more secure and finally took that step.
It is a happy thing to pet a dog, especially a furry, chubby and particularly well-behaved dog like Dahuang.
Shen Huan took that step and became addicted to petting him. "It's really so well-behaved and cute."
"Da Huang seems to be particularly fond of you. He probably judges people by their appearance. Normally, he would bark a few times when he meets strangers. This is the first time he's been so quiet. But even if he barks, it's just bluffing. Pat his head and he'll be quiet right away."
Not forgetting what she came here for, Liu Cui'e smiled and continued, then picked up the bucket and went to the well to fetch water.
Seeing the old woman trembling and struggling to carry the things, Shen Huan quickly nodded at the man and said, "Go and help."
When she raised her eyes, she suddenly found that the man was staring at her, and also... Dahuang.
Meeting his meaningful gaze, Shen Huan, who realized something belatedly, felt terrible.
She took back her little hand that was petting the dog and glared at him, "Go and help me quickly."
Fu Siyan deliberately raised his palm and gestured in the air, and then naturally connected it with the action of rolling up his sleeves.
He gave her a wicked smile, then turned around to help the old woman fetch water.
For some reason, Da Huang suddenly fell out of favor. After waiting for a long time for the beautiful girl to pat his head, he moved his chubby body and rubbed against Chen Huan's ankle to please her.
Chen Huan: “…”
