Thanks to Gu Liji's warning, fewer people paid attention to Cheng Qicai.
Cheng Qicai silently ate the skewers on her plate, planning to leave once she was full.
Although she didn't know why Gu Liji had called her here, this place was not a place for her to stay for long.
I've gone through all that trouble to come here, and even though the travel expenses are reimbursed, I can't let my time go to waste. I should at least earn some interest before I leave.
It has to be said that the chef Gu Liji hired really knows how to bake. The secret spices sprinkled on top, combined with the crispy exterior and tender interior, make it so juicy that it almost mesmerizes Cheng Qicai.
The lobster meat is firm and bouncy, and the garlic sauce topping adds a unique flavor.
After enjoying such delicious barbecue, she forgave Gu Liji for inviting her.
Just as she was enjoying her meal, a dark figure crouched down at her feet.
Upon closer inspection, Cheng Qicai realized it was the dog she had bought from Gu Liji at the pet expo.
She didn't know when it arrived, but now it was squatting on the ground with its tongue sticking out, looking at her.
Its long, jet-black fur was like black silk, and its blue eyes were like jewels. Although they weren't very big, they still looked somewhat dangerous.
Cheng Qicai put the meat from the fork into her mouth, and the dog's eyes followed her hand movements, its tongue sticking out, with glistening droplets about to drip from the tip of its tongue.
Its original imposing aura was immediately diminished.
Cheng Qicai breathed a sigh of relief. She used a knife and fork to cut off the parts of the meat that were covered in seasoning, then picked up another fork and used it to feed the dog.
The puppy devoured the meat from the fork in a flash, chewed it a couple of times, and then stared longingly at Cheng Qicai.
Cheng Qicai laughed and reached out to rub its head.
Although she had seen it long ago, she still did not know its name.
She would eat a couple of bites herself, and then feed the puppy a couple of bites.
The man and his dog seemed quite content in this little corner.
But Cheng Qicai didn't dare to feed it too much, only giving it a small amount each time to let it taste it.
After she finished eating the meat on her plate, she went to get a few more skewers of vegetables.
But when the dog saw that Cheng Qicai was giving it vegetables, it didn't even flinch.
Cheng Qicai thought to herself, "This is a picky dog. I even went out of my way to get some unseasoned dishes."
Finally, Cheng Qicai finished eating and felt that she had eaten enough. She petted the dog a few times, then stood up and walked towards Gu Liji.
"Brother Gu!" Cheng Qicai bent down and patted Gu Liji on the shoulder. "I've almost finished eating, so I'll head back now."
Hearing that Cheng Qicai was leaving, he panicked, "No, please stay and play a little longer!"
Honestly, why hasn't his brother arrived yet?
"No." Cheng Qicai shook her head firmly.
How does she play around here? Does she flirt like everyone else, or touch each other's thighs?
She was eating barbecue while watching this group of rich kids, and it was quite an eye-opener, like watching the beginning of a pornographic film.
Gu Liji scratched his head and offered another suggestion, "Why don't you and Hei Feng go somewhere else to have some fun?"
Black Wind?
Cheng Qicai was stunned for a moment, then followed Gu Liji's gaze and realized that the Black Wind Gu Liji mentioned was this little black dog.
“Go ahead, I haven’t walked it yet today,” Gu Liji thought for a moment, “How about this, I’ll give you three thousand to walk it for an hour, how about that?”
Cheng Qicai remained silent.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Gu Liji spoke again: "Five thousand! How about it?"
"How about what?" That's a very good question!
Cheng Qicai nodded immediately.
She had just been lost in thought for a moment about the little dog named Black Wind, and then she remembered that the Black Bear Spirit was called that too.
Unexpectedly, in the short time I was stunned, Gu Liji had already raised the price.
This was totally worth the time!
Cheng Qicai happily walked into the villa, found the butler and got the dog leash, then led Heifeng out of the villa.
With the noise and commotion gone, Cheng Qicai's discomfort dissipated considerably.
Cheng Qicai was completely unfamiliar with this villa complex; the only route she was familiar with was the one leading from the main gate to Gu Liji's house.
She was still looking around, wondering where to go, but Black Wind seemed to have her own ideas and started walking forward with her little legs tumbling.
Although it was small, it still took Cheng Qicai some effort to hold onto it.
However, Black Wind seemed to be following a specific route, which was probably the route that Guliji used to take it for walks, so it followed the route as soon as it came out.
Aside from holding it to prevent it from running away, Cheng Qicai had absolutely no other use for it.
Black Wind knows this land much better than she does; she acts like it's her master.
But Cheng Qicai thought optimistically that since it was all the same, whether it was walking her or she was walking it, there wasn't much difference.
It's already five thousand yuan, who cares who's walking whom?
After following the black wind for a while, Cheng Qicai was exhausted and wanted to rest. She stood still, grabbed the black wind, and stopped it from moving forward.
Black Wind glanced at her and continued walking forward, but due to the leash, it could only spin in circles, occasionally jumping forward with its front paws, seemingly trying to break free of the leash.
But Cheng Qicai was not about to let it have its way. She had just walked with it all the way and was so tired that she could hardly breathe.
Cheng Qicai held onto the dog leash, and the two remained locked in a stalemate.
A black car approached from their direction. As Cheng Qicai watched the car get closer, the familiarity of the license plate number washed over her.
The car slowly stopped in front of a person and a dog, and the window was rolled down.
What was revealed was not a person, but a yellow dog's head.
When Golden Bean appeared, even the stubborn Black Wind stopped resisting and immediately raised its head, wagged its tail, and barked at Golden Bean.
The car door opposite was also opened, and Gu Rongqi, wearing a light blue shirt, got out.
"Gu Rongqi!" Cheng Qicai called out, grabbing Hei Feng by the scruff of its neck to prevent it from scratching the car paint.
Even though she wasn't the one who had to pay for the scratches, she still had to apologize.
Gu Rongqi looked at Hei Feng, whom he was holding hands with, and asked, "What are you doing here? Wasn't Li Ji having some kind of barbecue party?"
"It was too stuffy inside, so Brother Gu let me come out for a stroll in the Black Wind," Cheng Qicai explained.
Seeing a thin layer of sweat on Cheng Qicai's forehead, Gu Rongqi reached out to take the dog leash from Cheng Qicai's hand, "Let me do it, Heifeng has a lot of energy."
Looking at Gu Rongqi's fair and slender hands, Cheng Qicai untied the leash that had been wrapped around his hands several times, handed it to him, and then shook his hands, which were red from being tied.
Gu Rongqi looked at the red marks on the back of her hand and asked, "Is your hand alright?"
Cheng Qicai shook her head, "It's nothing, I just had diarrhea for a while."
"That's good. Next time, don't wrap the thinner side around your hand, it's easy to cut your hand. Just hold the sponge on top, it will be much better."
"Mm." Hearing Gu Rongqi's caring words, Cheng Qicai felt a surge of warmth in her heart, and she nodded earnestly.
