Chapter 17 Mad Dog Hotel
Lu Qi rummaged through the closet for a long time.
This is just a rented apartment; the clothes she doesn't wear often are kept at her parents' house.
Lulu is very tall, and there's a significant size difference between her and Luqi. Luqi searched through all the clothes in the rented room and found only a coral fleece bathrobe that Lulu could fit into.
She held her bathrobe and knocked on the bathroom door.
The door was opened quickly.
Hot steam billowed out, and Lu Qi's pupils contracted slightly as he hurriedly turned his head away.
She handed the bathrobe to Lulu, "This is all I have. I'll go buy you some clothes, remember to ask for leave."
An elegant voice came from inside the door, "Thank you."
Lu Qi rushed out the door, and the cold wind hit her face, but it didn't dispel the heat from her face for a long time.
She went to a nearby clothing store and bought a men's outfit. When she got home, Lulu had already come out of the bathroom and was wearing her bathrobe.
He turned to the side, wiping his soaked blond hair, water droplets running down his neck and collarbone into his navy blue bathrobe.
The moment Lu Qi opened the door, the young man immediately turned around, facing her with a bright smile.
Lu Qi stamped his foot.
The youthful spirit clashed with the old, run-down rental apartment.
His aura was so powerful that it overwhelmed the entire environment. For a moment, Lu Qi felt a sense of unease, as if he had wandered into someone else's house.
She took half a step forward, and Lulu leaned closer, her brows relaxed, beaming with joy: "You're back."
As she got closer, Lu Qi smelled a very faint scent, which was not her shower gel.
It's hard to describe the taste, or perhaps it's not a smell but a feeling that makes you feel relaxed.
Lu Qi was about to speak when his gaze rose and unexpectedly met the open collar of his bathrobe.
Lulu was dressed very formally, but her nightgown had an open collar, revealing a small patch of pale skin beneath the dark blue cross collar.
Her clothes covered the young man's body, revealing his collarbone and below it his firm and full chest.
Lu Qi stared uncontrollably at the exposed chest for a while; she had never seen a body with such a low body fat percentage.
The memory of that fleeting glance before leaving the house flashed through Lu Qi's mind, and the heat that had just subsided on her face suddenly returned.
Lu Qi felt a little embarrassed and somewhat surprised. Could a human really maintain such a figure...?
The image from that glimpse became increasingly vivid, and Lu Qi quickly cleared his mind of the jumbled thoughts.
Has she gone mad?
After Lulu's death, all she felt for men was fear. Why did she keep having such vulgar thoughts about the junior she had just met?
Just as Lu Qi was about to hand the clothes she had bought to Lulu, she saw the young man pull the crossed collars open slightly.
He asked, "Do you want to touch me?"
Lu Qi suddenly looked up and met Lulu's smiling eyes.
He said, "Touch me."
Lu Qi was startled and stepped back. Before his back foot could land, Lulu grabbed his hand.
He pulled her close and pressed her pale hand against his chest.
The moment Lu Qi touched the smooth skin, her whole body stiffened.
"No..." Her throat tightened, and she managed to utter just one word before a heavy weight pressed down on her shoulder.
Lulu lowered her head, her forehead resting on her left shoulder.
He took her stiff, cold hand and gently stroked it against his chest.
Lu Qi heard the wildly beating heartbeat, but he couldn't tell if it was her or Lulu's.
She could hear the young man's slightly rapid breathing; he inhaled her scent and breathed excitedly against her neck.
From the very beginning, Lu Qi had a special affection for Lulu, but that doesn't mean they could do that!
She wanted to push him away and make him leave, but her breath became moist near her ear.
He murmured hoarsely, "Don't be sad."
What was he saying? Lu Qi was bewildered.
"I hope you can be happy." He gently rubbed against her, his damp hair softly clinging to Lu Qi.
Behind the young man, Lu Qi was facing a photo of Lulu in the cupboard.
It sat on the green grass, basking in the sunlight, and smiled with its eyes squinted.
The young man stood up. He looked at Lu Qi with a smile, his eyes crinkling, and said, "Happy birthday, Lu Qi."
"I am so happy that you came into this world today, allowing me to meet you."
Lu Qi opened her eyes.
The young man's photo and Lulu's photo in the distance appeared before her eyes.
She had said these words to Lulu countless times.
She didn't know when Lulu's birthday was, so she set Lulu's birthday as the month before her own.
She tried her best to express her love to Lulu, hoping that Lulu would know that she was not an abandoned sick dog, not a failed product of a backyard kennel, that there were people in this world who loved her, and that her birth was very meaningful.
At that time, she used the love she gave to Lulu to nourish herself, trying to find the meaning of her own birth in Lulu.
It's ridiculous, what's the point...?
The young man's smile, just like Lulu's in the photo, suddenly changed, replaced by panic and helplessness.
He leaned closer and turned his head to lick away Lu Qi's tears.
Lu Qi belatedly realized that she had actually cried.
She cried uncontrollably, and through her blurred vision, the young man's blond hair and Lulu's fur were exactly the same color.
She actually condoned his actions of crossing the line.
His wet tongue licked away her tears and then kissed her swollen eyes.
With her eyes closed, Lu Qi suddenly realized in the darkness what the extremely faint scent on the young man was—
Like Lulu.
In the darkness, it felt as if soft, warm fur was brushing against her skin.
That indescribable tenderness cradled and enveloped her, filling her with a sudden pang of sorrow.
He held her, kissing her cheeks, the corners of her eyes, and her chin, before finally reaching her lips.
As reason returned slightly, Lu Qi placed his hands on Lulu's chest.
Lulu gently bit her lower lip, and as she loosened her grip, she skillfully slipped her tongue inside, the tip of which grazed her palate.
The hands that were pressing against Lulu suddenly lost their strength.
A new stream of hot tears flowed from his swollen and dry eyes.
This kiss was just like her Lulu's.
She embraced the top of the young man's light golden hair, letting out a muffled murmur: "Lulu..."
Lulu, her little dog… she had missed her for far too long.
A note from the author:
----------------------
Regarding Lulu's body fat percentage:
Dogs have a body fat percentage similar to humans, though slightly lower overall. However, Golden Retrievers, like humans, have a body fat percentage of 18-24%.
Considering that Lulu is a hybrid dog bred through artificial breeding, his maternal grandmother was a white wolf, and wolves have a body fat percentage of only 8-15%; plus, he was bred specifically for beauty contests, so his looks and physique are show-quality…
...
In short, for the sake of the female lead and everyone's happiness, his body fat percentage is very low [thumbs up]!
