"Let's go." The two went out.
Xiao Qifeng arrived by car and parked in the parking space outside.
The two went straight to a shopping mall in the city center and shopped all day without going back for lunch.
Lu Wanzheng bought a lot of matching clothes and shoes for the two of them, filling the trunk of the car with bags and packages.
When she arrived at the Peach Blossom Spring Cottage, she didn't take the things out of the trunk. She was going home the next night, and these things could easily have been put in the trunk. Carrying them up and down was too tiring.
She and Xiao Qifeng entered the small house. As soon as they stepped inside, Lu Wanzheng sensed something was amiss and stopped at the door.
Just as she was about to lift her foot to take a step forward, a sound that shouldn't have been there rang out, "Woof!"
Lu Wanzheng stopped in her tracks. It was as if an electric shock had struck her. She trembled and instinctively grabbed Xiao Qifeng beside her.
A white figure suddenly rushed out from some corner and ran towards Lu Wanzheng.
"Ah!" Lu Wanzheng screamed in fright, her voice trembling with terror. She immediately hid behind Xiao Qifeng, blocking his view.
"Woof!" A large white Samoyed came running over, missed Lu Wanzheng, and turned to pounce on Xiao Qifeng.
It raised its front paws, stood upright, and grabbed onto Xiao Qifeng's clothes.
Lu Wanzheng's scream startled everyone in the small house. Gu Yewei and Mo Yushan ran out of the kitchen with a shovel. They were preparing dinner for the evening.
At first, when they heard noises at the door, they guessed that Lu Wanzheng and Xiao Qifeng had returned. But just a few seconds later, they heard Lu Wanzheng's terrified scream, and they immediately ran out in worry.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Mo Yushan rushed out in a panic.
After hearing who the voice was, Zhong Yunyue, who was in the living room, immediately ran out in worry.
Lu Ci came down from the second floor, so he was the last to appear at the door.
When the other four people arrived at the entrance, they saw a white dog clinging to Xiao Qifeng, while Lu Wanzheng was behind Xiao Qifeng.
Xiao Qifeng coldly looked at the dog clinging to him, "Whose dog is this?"
She remembered that Lu Wanzheng was a little afraid of dogs, especially large ones.
"It's...it's mine." Lu Ci was terrified of Xiao Qifeng. She didn't ignore the coldness in his words. He doted on his girlfriend so much, and her dog had frightened Lu Wanzheng. She was worried that Xiao Qifeng would take revenge on her family. "Bai Bai, come back." She clapped her hands, trying to call her dog back immediately.
The dog named Bai Bai is a purebred white Samoyed with snow-white fur without any blemishes. It has deep-set, almond-shaped eyes and a somewhat adorable expression.
Bai Bai seemed not to hear its master's words, pawing at Xiao Qifeng, staring at him, sticking out its tongue, and making "hahaha" sounds.
Seeing that her Samoyed wouldn't listen to her and wouldn't come back to her side, Lu Ci immediately ran over, hugged it with both hands, and took a few steps back, away from Xiao Qifeng.
Seeing that the dog was getting further and further away from her, Lu Wanzheng peeked out from behind Xiao Qifeng, her face showing panic and her lips were a little pale as she checked her safety.
"Before bringing the dog, shouldn't you have asked if anyone was afraid? Your behavior of making decisions without asking any questions is irresponsible to others and to yourself."
Xiao Qifeng took Lu Wanzheng's hand, comforting her as she must have been quite frightened. His handsome face was stern, and his eyes were cold.
Honestly, the dog belongs to Lu Ci; she can keep it as she pleases. Does Xiao Qifeng really think this is his own company, where he can boss people around as he pleases? Can't Lu Ci have her own thoughts and actions?
[To be honest, ever since Lu Ci arrived at the cabin yesterday, everyone has been targeting her. Now they won't even let her keep a dog in the cabin, just because Lu Wanzheng is afraid? Is Xiao Qifeng trying to be a dictator? His girlfriend is a person, but Lu Ci isn't?]
[Lu Wanzheng is so troublesome. This dog has been here for half a day. It was fine when she wasn't here, but now that she's here, she suddenly won't let us keep it?]
Why are there still so many haters jumping around like this? Didn't they get a good slap in the face last night?
[This whole thing was Lu Ci's fault to begin with, so how can you blame it on Xiao Qifeng and Lu Wanzheng? This isn't just Lu Ci living in the house; it's like living in a dormitory when you're in school—you have to consider other people's feelings. Lu Ci brought the dog without even asking; isn't that inconsiderate of Lu Wanzheng?]
Although Xiao Qifeng's words were a bit harsh, it's obvious that Lu Wanzheng is somewhat afraid of dogs. Isn't Xiao Qifeng's behavior something a normal boyfriend would do? These haters probably haven't been in a relationship before, or haven't met a boyfriend who cares about his girlfriend.
【I'm also afraid of dogs. If I encountered a dog that big, I'd probably be completely terrified. Are girls not allowed to be afraid of dogs anymore?】
Lu Ci blushed as Xiao Qifeng scolded her, and lowered her head in shame. "Bai Bai is very docile and won't bite. I thought everyone would like dogs, so after the housekeeper took it for a bath today, I asked the housekeeper to bring it back."
She bit her lower lip. If she had known that Lu Wanzheng was afraid of dogs, she definitely wouldn't have let Bai Bai come over.
"Return Wanzheng if there's nothing else to do. Lu Ci, take good care of Bai Bai. It's best to keep it on a leash so it doesn't run around." Zhong Yunyue spoke up to smooth things over, not wanting to strain everyone's relationship over a dog.
Lu Ci: "Okay."
Xiao Qifeng pulled Lu Wanzheng back to the living room. Gu Yewei, seeing that the matter was resolved, was startled when he saw the shovel in his hand and slapped his forehead, as if he remembered something.
His food! He immediately ran back to the kitchen.
Mo Yushan followed him back to the kitchen with a smile. She had run out when she heard the noise while she was chopping vegetables.
Lu Ci carried Bai Bai back to the living room, placing Bai Bai's leash under the coffee table.
Its four white paws hovered in the air, yet it didn't flap them; its fluffy tail drooped down.
"You, I was only gone for a short while, how could you run off like that? Now look what happened, you don't even have a chance to run away anymore." Lu Ci put Bai Bai on the ground, put a collar on it, and then locked the chain.
The area where Bai Bai could move around was suddenly reduced significantly.
Lu Ci moved a small stool next to Bai Bai and kept rubbing Bai Bai's head. "I'll play with you for a while."
Lu Wanzheng kept glancing at Lu Ci and Bai Bai. She still felt a little guilty. Bai Bai hadn't done anything to her; it was just that it was scared, so Bai Bai could only stay in a small area, which was a bit of a torment for a lively Samoyed.
Zhong Yunyue noticed Lu Wanzheng's expression and asked, "Wanzheng, are you afraid of dogs?"
Many fears can actually be overcome, but it's just a matter of addressing the root cause.
"Actually, this is quite interesting," Lu Wanzheng recalled what Xu Jingxing had told her, and she herself was amused. The corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and she explained to everyone, "I heard Lao Xu say before that when I was a child, I used to chase after dogs. But I don't know from which year onwards, I was chased by dogs. I can only say that I was ignorant and bold when I was young."
"Pfft!" Zhong Yunyue couldn't help but laugh. He could already imagine the situation at that time. The only explanation for this contrast was probably youthful ignorance and recklessness.
"Sorry, I couldn't help it." Zhong Yunyue covered his mouth; he hadn't laughed out loud on purpose. His smile was gentle, without any hint of sarcasm.
Lu Wanzheng waved her hand, not caring about these things. Who hasn't had some embarrassing moments when they were young?
Restrained, Bai Bai retracted her protruding pink tongue and made a "woo-woo" sound in her throat, looking pitiful.
"Actually, Bai Bai is very well-behaved. We've been with it for half a day now, and it won't bite. You don't need to be afraid of it."
Zhong Yunyue still wanted to try to get Bai Bai some free time.
When Lu Ci heard Zhong Yunyue explain for Bai Bai, he looked at him gratefully, "Bai Bai has been well-behaved since she was little, she would not bully other small animals, and she is also very close to people."
[Lu Wanzheng is ruthless, doesn't anyone know that? Can't she even grant her such a small request?]
Hearing Bai Bai's pitiful cries broke my heart. Lu Wanzheng, you have no heart!
Lu Wanzheng has no heart!
Lu Wanzheng has no heart!
After the two of them persuaded her, Lu Wanzheng softened a little. She thought of Tudou. If someone was afraid of cats and asked her to lock Tudou up, she would feel bad too. She guessed that Lu Ci was also feeling a little sad at this moment.
Lu Wanzheng looked at Xiao Qifeng, feeling a pang of reluctance in her heart.
Xiao Qifeng: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
These were probably the most comforting words Lu Wanzheng had ever heard. She got up and slowly walked towards Bai Bai. Xiao Qifeng followed behind her, keeping a close eye on Bai Bai's movements. If Bai Bai made any dangerous moves, he could quickly take action to protect Lu Wanzheng.
With a mix of trepidation and excitement, Lu Wanzheng walked to Lu Ci's side. Lu Ci had already apologized to her during the day, and being a magnanimous person, she naturally wouldn't hold it against him. Besides, Lu Ci was just a bit of a spoiled young lady; it's normal for a young lady to have a temper.
She half-squatted in front of Bai Bai, reaching out her hand to Bai Bai. It was hard to notice that her hand was trembling slightly unless you looked closely.
Lu Wanzheng's mind raced as she considered which direction would be the safest if the white Samoyed in front of her attacked her.
"Wanzheng, why don't you give it a try? Baibai is very well-behaved." Perhaps because she apologized to Lu Wanzheng in the morning, she felt no psychological burden in front of Lu Wanzheng now, and calling her name was exceptionally smooth.
She touched Bai Bai's head, her expression blank and adorable. She stuck out her tongue and looked at Lu Wanzheng. She raised her head and licked Lu Wanzheng's palm with her pink tongue, making it ticklish.
After this bold attempt, Lu Wanzheng seemed less afraid of Bai Bai, but that was only limited to not being afraid of Bai Bai; not every dog is as well-behaved as Bai Bai.
Emboldened, Lu Wanzheng reached out and touched Bai Bai's big face, rubbing it gently. "Bai Bai is so cute."
"After all, it's my pet. How could I take it out if it wasn't cute? It's a kind of status symbol," Lu Ci said proudly.
"I'll bring the potatoes next week."
Since Lu Ci had brought his dog, she could bring Tudou too and give it to Aunt Ye and Lao Xu. She was really worried about it, as the two of them spoiled Tudou too much, basically granting his every wish.
"Potato?"
Before the previous scandals, Lu Ci never paid attention to Lu Wanzheng, so she had no idea who Tudou was.
“Hmm,” Lu Wanzheng thought that Lu Ci probably didn’t know who Tudou was, so she explained, “Tudou is my Munchkin cat. You can see its photos on my Weibo.”
Cats have always been a favorite of Lu Ci. She couldn't wait to take out her phone and browse Lu Wanzheng's Weibo. While looking through the photos, she would see Lu Wanzheng's outspoken remarks. She read them all, and her admiration for Lu Wanzheng rose again. She really had a charm that made people like her.
After browsing through the language-related Weibo posts, she found photos of Potato and looked at them one by one. "Potato is so cute, I can't wait to play with her."
"Yes, you're good-looking, it will probably like playing with you."
Lu Wanzheng was telling the truth. That lecherous cat, Potato, can't take his eyes off pretty girls.
A girl who can make a potato unable to move her legs is a beauty.
Lu Ci: "Are even cats judging by their looks now?"
Lu Wanzheng: "I don't know about other cats, but Potato is like this."
"But isn't Potato a female cat? Shouldn't she be unable to resist handsome men? At home, isn't Potato very clingy to Mr. Xiao?" Lu Ci looked at the pictures of Potato wearing a floral dress on her phone. The cat's every smile and gesture in the photos hit her sweet spot. "I'll go buy a few pretty dresses too, as a gift for when we meet next week."
"No need, I feel bad about that, I didn't even give Bai Bai a gift," Lu Wanzheng loosened the chain around Bai Bai's neck, "Also, Potato is a male cat, so he can't take his eyes off girls."
[Shocking! The cat I've been a fan of for so long turns out to be a male! I always thought Potato was a girl, but I was wrong all along!]
[It wasn't just Lu Ci who was captivated by Potato's floral dress. What strange fetish does Lu Wanzheng have, dressing a male cat in a floral dress? Isn't that taking advantage of Potato's inability to speak human language?]
[This is such a blatant act, but I can understand Lu Wanzheng's behavior. Didn't you guys notice that Potato looks really good in a skirt?]
[I've figured it out! It's like when we were kids, and our mothers insisted on dressing our boys in little skirts to make up for not having a girl.]
Lu Ci's face showed the same shocked expression as the netizens. She subconsciously thought that a cat wearing a skirt must be a female cat, "but it still looks very pretty in a skirt."
"Of course, several of its dresses were gifts from my assistant and agent. It's very popular."
