Chapter 53 Extra: Mad Dog Hotel
One late night after the New Year, Lulu sat up in bed and stared at Lu Qi.
Lu Qi is a light sleeper. Noticing the movement beside her, she groggily opened her eyes, then closed them again, too sleepy to do so. "What's wrong?"
She asked casually, assuming Lulu had heard someone passing by in the hallway, and didn't think much of it.
After a while, she heard Lulu say in a serious tone, "Lu Qi, go get sterilized."
Lu Qi closed his eyes and reacted for a while before fully waking up.
"What's wrong?" She sat up, rubbing her eyes, not understanding why Lulu suddenly said this.
"Your heat is coming soon again." Lulu looked at her lower abdomen with concern. "You suffer a lot every time you're in heat."
Lu Qi chuckled, "It's okay, Lulu, I'll just take some medicine and I'll be fine. It's not as uncomfortable as being a female dog or a female cat."
“Taking medicine all the time is bad for your health,” Lulu asked. “Luqi, why don’t you want to get sterilized?”
Lu Qi explained to him, "Human organs that are not diseased are not allowed to be removed. This involves some ethical and moral issues, and hospitals cannot do it."
Lulu understands.
“I’ll do it for you, Lu Qi,” he said. “I’ll use the operating room at Anxin Hospital. I won’t let you bleed.”
"...Thank you, I believe you will do a good job, but the dean probably won't agree."
“I’ll go and beg her,” Lulu said.
When he woke up the next morning, he hadn't forgotten about it. After eight o'clock, he contacted the hospital director and asked to borrow the hospital to perform a minor surgery on Lu Qi.
"The dean disagrees." Lulu brought breakfast to Lu Qi, looking sullen.
Lu Qi was surprised, "You really went and asked? What did she say?"
"She asked me if I was crazy."
Lu Qi tore at the bread, laughing heartily.
She thought the matter was over and done with, and that dogs wouldn't dwell on things they couldn't change.
A rock suddenly appeared where it usually slept. It tried to push it away a few times, but when it found that it couldn't, it would look for another place.
But the sterilization process didn't end so quickly.
In the following days, as her period approached, Lu Qi noticed that Lulu was becoming increasingly anxious, often staring at her lower abdomen with strange looks, which made her feel uncomfortable.
That evening, Lulu came out after taking a shower and saw Lu Qi sitting on the bed looking at his phone, and she paused again.
His dark gaze lingered on her abdomen. Lu Qi sighed helplessly, "It's really nothing, I haven't come yet."
Lulu walked towards her, knelt on the bed, and touched her lower abdomen.
Lu Qi thought this was a reassurance, but the next moment, she heard a very heavy swallow.
The young man's prominent Adam's apple slid down, hidden by the dark red choker below.
He stared intently at Lu Qi's stomach, his lips slightly parted, revealing a glimpse of his teeth, and sticky silver threads stretched from his canines and lower lip.
“Lu Qi,” he murmured as if possessed, “you smell so good, and I feel so uncomfortable.”
Lu Qi was stunned.
Her gaze shifted downwards—but she didn't see that Lulu was wearing a loose nightgown.
He crawled two steps on his knees, hesitated, then suddenly shook his head to calm himself down.
Lu Qi sensed something unusual, so he brought his knees together and subtly moved backward.
"What's wrong, Lulu?"
“I don’t know,” Lulu said, tugging at her choker and pulling down her shirt, her brow furrowed and panting heavily. “I’m so excited, I want to smell you.”
It might be impolite to say this, but Lu Qi couldn't help but say, "...Isn't this what you do every day?"
“It’s different.” Lulu shook her head, swallowed hard again, and her saliva was secreted faster and in greater quantities than usual. “I also have some rude thoughts.”
"What are you thinking?"
Lulu frowned, looking troubled. "I want to ride you, Luqi."
Lu Qi opened his mouth.
She shouldn't have thought of it in a negative way. Mounting has all sorts of meanings for animals: mounting to show status, mounting to discipline children, mounting to play a game when bored... However, when she met Lulu's deep and passionate gaze, Lu Qi's cheeks gradually flushed.
This is a desire etched into male genes. Sterilization in animals only eliminates reproduction; it cannot completely eradicate their instincts.
"You've never been like this before...," she whispered to Lulu, hugging her knees together.
“Yes, it’s strange.” Lulu tugged at her choker from side to side, shaking her head in frustration.
He loosened the belt around his waist, took off his bathrobe, and picked up his outerwear from the sofa. "You probably haven't been active enough. You go to sleep first, I'll go for a run outside."
"Now?" Lu Qi glanced at the pitch-black window.
Lulu sensed the lingering worry in Lu Qi's words. He smiled happily, draped his arm over his clothes, and turned to kiss Lu Qi's forehead. "I'll be back soon."
Lu Qi looked down and his gaze met Lulu's naked body.
After kissing Lu Qi, he turned his back to get dressed.
As he stretched his arms upward, his strong back muscles bulged, and the already tight waist of the male dog showed clear muscle lines, with a deep cleavage in the middle.
Lu Qi held her breath.
Just after the Lantern Festival, Lulu was only wearing a black top.
Dark red velvet lay across the pure black bodysuit; both colors complemented his fair skin. He adjusted the position of his choker, then turned back to hug Lu Qi one last time before leaving.
"Don't wait for me, go to sleep first, baby. Be good, and don't go out." He just wanted to say goodbye, but at the end he couldn't help but take a deep sniff of her mouth. "Luqi... honey cake, you are so sweet. I love you."
A powerful aura enveloped her, and Lu Qi bit her lip.
How could he choose this moment for her to release her canine hormones?
Lulu got up to leave, but her clothes were gently tugged at.
He tilted his head and looked at Lu Qi with a puzzled expression.
Lu Qi looked away, only revealing her reddened ear tips to him.
"It's too late, don't go," she said softly.
"But..." "I'll help you."
Lulu paused, not quite understanding what Lu Qi meant.
...
Unlike the vulgar and ignorant stray dogs, Lulu is a domestic dog that has been spayed and neutered on time.
For pets, spaying or neutering is definitely a symbol of status and identity. Stray dogs and wild dogs go without saying, but even dogs with owners cannot have the surgery if they are not cherished by their owners or if their families are poor.
Thanks to being spayed/neutered, Lulu is more intelligent, rational, gentle, and composed than unspayed dogs.
He was proud of this and regarded dogs mating on the roadside as lowly, inferior species.
Lulu never imagined that one day she would be able to access the reproductive module in her brain.
Lu Qi is going crazy.
"Stop, Lulu, stop!" she screamed softly, covering her face.
Lulu pulled her hand away as soon as she covered her eyes.
He bent down and licked away the stray tears clinging to her eyelashes, then grasped her slender wrists with one hand and pinned them to the headboard.
"Are you calling my name?" His tone was gentle and tender, but his eyes were burning with excitement. "Lu Qi, are you encouraging me? Because I haven't done enough?"
Lu Qi was so ashamed that she turned her head and buried her head in the pillow.
That "dog waist" is no joke; her pelvis was almost shattered. No human could withstand that kind of strength.
"Luqi, Luqi, your neck is so beautiful." The way she turned her head drove Lulu even crazier.
He paused for a moment, and Lu Qi opened his eyes blankly. Through his blurred vision filled with tears, he saw Lulu tear something off her back, roughly tie it into a knot, and put it around her neck.
Lu Qi touched it in a daze, but the furry touch suddenly brought her back to her senses.
She had a golden dog tail tied around her neck—it was Lulu's tail! He ripped off his tail!
"Hiss—" Lulu tilted her head back, gasped, her chest and abdomen tightened and contracted, and felt a tingling sensation on her scalp.
"You like my tail, don't you?" He smiled strangely and stroked Lu Qi's hair. "You're so excited, Lu Qi."
"I'm terrified!" Lu Qi hurriedly tried to remove the dog tail from her neck, but Lulu grabbed her wrist.
She twisted her waist, "No, don't show like that!"
"You're calling me again." Lulu tilted her head and smiled brightly at her. "Okay, Luqi, I'll do my best."
Lu Qi's face turned bright red. He had such a body, yet he could still smile so innocently.
Biting the tip of the golden tail that was sticking up on her neck, she suppressed her voice, only occasionally letting out two soft hums from her nose.
Human and dog cultures have been intertwined for a long time and are largely interconnected, but there are a few exceptions.
For example, at this moment.
Lulu experienced the thrill of "immorality" for the first time.
For a dog, sniffing another person's paint for a long time is a very impolite and barbaric act, but Lu Qi held his head and said to him in a soft, indistinct voice, "It's okay... it's better to stay a little longer, it will hurt me if it's too short."
Lulu's heart was pounding.
Reason told him that Lu Qi was right, and instinct also pleased him to sniff and lick her scent. But a dog's mind was ingrained, and Lulu's manners gripped his throat. As he was indulging in the fragrance, she would occasionally jerk him, bringing him back to his senses and making him feel ashamed of his rude behavior.
He was both intoxicated and restrained, both lost and clear-headed.
The internal struggle between left and right made Lulu's muscles tense. He was fighting against himself and soon became so hot that he was sweating profusely.
Sticky saliva dripped from the tip of his scarlet tongue, falling into Lu Qi's navel and filling the shallow groove.
Lu Qi bit the golden tail tip, so ashamed she wanted to faint.
The premenstrual period passed quickly, and Lulu noticed the arrival of her period earlier than Luqi.
"You're starting to turn green." He closed his eyes, sniffed, and exclaimed as if savoring tea, "The smell is wonderful."
Lu Qi pushed him away with all her might, her face flushed, and ran into the bathroom to put on a sanitary napkin.
Lulu stood guard at the door, and when she came out, she asked worriedly, "Are you alright, Lu Qi? Let me help you."
"No need!" Recalling the absurdity of the past two days, Lu Qi clutched her lower back, her breathing labored. "It's over, and we don't need it anymore!"
Lulu was stunned, then immediately caught up with her, "Why? Did I not do well enough, Lu Qi?"
"There's no reason why," Lu Qi stammered, not wanting to continue the topic. "Anyway, it's over. Don't think about it anymore. Hurry up and pack up. We're supposed to see Professor Meng next month."
Lulu certainly performed very well. Her physical strength and figure were one aspect, but what Lu Qi liked most was the emotional value she provided.
His eyes and every movement were filled with passionate love; the way he looked at her made her feel as if she were the most beautiful woman in the world.
Dogs don't use sweet talk; every word Lulu utters comes from the bottom of her heart.
He thought she was incredibly beautiful, incredibly fragrant, and absolutely perfect.
This reaction was more alluring to Lu Qi than any skill or beauty. She was beginning to crave it, but the pain of her period extinguished that desire.
Looking back on the past two days, she felt somewhat guilty.
In the past, when she had her period, Lulu wouldn't have any reaction, probably because now that he has a human body, he is somewhat affected by human hormones.
However, Lulu's testicles were removed, so she could become engorged with blood but could not release it.
Therefore, it is difficult to get Lulu to stop. The only thing to do is to feed him plenty of water and wait for the urine to flow through the tube, which is a way to trick his body.
Although Lulu didn't care at all, Lu Qi couldn't bear to see him in this awkward situation.
She decided that she should try to avoid this kind of thing in the future.
When her period started, Lu Qi adjusted her daily fitness routine.
She's about to go to Africa, so she needs to make the most of her time to improve her physical fitness.
After resting for the first two days, Lu Qi began low-intensity training starting on the third night.
On the seventh day of her period, Lu Qi was stretching on a yoga ball when she caught a glimpse of Lulu sitting beside her, silently gazing at her.
Lulu has been unusually quiet these past two days.
"What's wrong, Lulu?" Lu Qi asked, puzzled. "Did something happen to you?"
Lulu glanced at her, then closed her eyes slightly. "No."
This reaction was so unusual that Lu Qi immediately got off the yoga ball and sat down next to Lulu. "What's wrong, puppy? Are you unhappy?"
Lulu lowered her head, turned her body to the side, and remained silent.
Lu Qi was even more surprised and suspicious, and put his arm around Lulu's forearm, "What's wrong, Lulu?"
Lulu glanced at her, her eyes clearly saying: Do you really want me to say it?
Lu Qi hugged him, kneading the back of his neck and spine. "Tell me, what difficulties have you encountered?"
She didn't ask, and she coaxed him in such a gentle tone that Lulu suddenly burst out with grievances.
He nestled against Lu Qi's neck, as if he had been wronged by unfriendly drivers or passersby and was now seeking comfort from Lu Qi.
Lu Qi couldn't figure out what had happened in the past few days to make Lulu so sad.
Until Lulu spoke in a hoarse voice, "You're not going to work with me anymore, Lu Qi."
"..." Lu Qi's lips twitched. "Anything else?"
The fluffy golden head shook.
That's it, that's all, just this one big problem.
Lu Qi wanted to pat his butt speechlessly—she stopped patting his head after Lulu was diagnosed with syringomyelia.
She raised her hand, then paused.
Lu Qi suddenly remembered that dogs and people are different.
Male dogs that cannot mate may become depressed.
But Lulu is already sterilized... well, even though he's sterilized, he still mates.
"I can't do it with you, Lulu." Considering that his way of thinking is different from that of humans, Lu Qi patiently explained first, "It's not that I don't like you, it's just that humans can't do it during their menstrual period."
Lulu looked up and gazed longingly at Lu Qi.
Lu Qi laughed and said, "Do you understand now?"
Lulu shook her head. "That's not the information I received."
"Um?"
The common sense that Yanzi passed on to him didn't say anything was wrong. "The search engine also says that as long as you pay attention to hygiene, it's fine. I've also heard that humans have a specific term for it, 'washed in blood'..."
Lu Qi covered Lulu's mouth with her hand, her eyes wide with anger. "Who taught you all this! It's so vulgar and tasteless, Lulu!"
Lulu stared in astonishment, her round eyes widening.
Did he say something wrong?
"You can't say things like that!" Lu Qi commanded firmly. "A well-mannered puppy wouldn't say such things!"
"Why?"
"There's no reason why!"
“Okay, Luqi,” Lulu nodded, focusing on her earlier words, “So, it’s okay once my period is over?”
Lu Qi looked away. "Hmm... then we'll be going to Africa soon. When we get back..." Before she could finish speaking, Lulu visibly slumped down.
He didn't feign pitifulness; he exuded a tangible sorrow and the desolation of a failed courtship.
Lu Qi softened. She knew she shouldn't be soft-hearted many times, but the person in front of her wasn't a man, but her little dog.
He only needed to sit there, tilt his head, and glance at her with his dark eyes to make her body release a large amount of oxytocin, making her love him, be overjoyed, and be fascinated by him.
Lu Qi covered her burning face in frustration.
This is terrible... She's opened Pandora's box, and it'll be hard to close it again.
"Okay, okay, I know, I know." She reluctantly conceded, "Just tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow! Just once!"
Lulu's eyes instantly brightened and sparkled.
He kissed Lu Qi happily, "Really? Thank you, Lu Qi. You are such a generous and kind little girl, even angels are not as good as you."
Lu Qi was overwhelmed with shame; he could no longer question Lulu about who taught him.
How could she have uttered such exaggerated praise before?
Lulu felt no shame; he only felt that Lu Qi's scent had become warm and sweet.
He lovingly kissed her skin, which was covered with a thin layer of sweat, and sincerely praised her, "Your posture on the yoga ball is beautiful, Lu Qi. If you like the ball, we can do it on the yoga ball."
"...Stop talking, Lulu. Please."
This kind of life is somewhat different from what Lu Qi originally expected.
Such intense exercise is not included in her daily exercise schedule.
Lulu asked uncertainly, "Don't you like it, Luqi?"
Lu Qi nodded slowly in her palm, her face turning red from the tips of her ears all the way down to her neck.
"I like it..." she whispered, burying her face in Lulu's chest. "I like it, Lulu."
Of course she liked him; he was the puppy she had brought home herself.
