But she still explained, "It just ran away, and I chased it for a long time before catching up, so I wrapped it around my hand a few more times."
To Gu Rongqi, this explanation sounded like a coquettish complaint, and his drooping eyes also carried a hint of grievance.
"Okay, don't chase it next time. It can't escape here. We can find it by checking the surveillance footage."
He suppressed the itch in his throat, covered his mouth with his fist, and coughed lightly, noticing that the redness on the back of her hand had faded somewhat.
Hearing the cough, Cheng Qicai looked at his thin blue shirt and said, "It's still a bit cold today, you should wear something warmer."
Prioritizing style over warmth is a no-no!
Gu Rongqi was silent for a moment, then said, "...Yes, there's a coat in the car."
For some reason, the question immediately fell silent.
Gu Rongqi turned his head to look at Cheng Qicai: "Did you go by car?"
Cheng Qicai took out her phone and checked the time. She had only been gone for half an hour, and there was still half an hour left. It would only take a few minutes to drive there now, and it wouldn't take an hour at all.
She smiled and declined, "No, I'm taking a stroll in the Black Wind. You go ahead, I'll stroll back in a bit."
Just kidding, she took five thousand, but she's very professional. If she says she'll stay for an hour, she means she'll stay for an hour, not even a minute less.
"Wait a minute, I'll drive the car over to the side first." Gu Rongqi picked up the dog and put it in the car, closed the door, and then drove his car to the side of the road and parked it.
Before Cheng Qicai could react to Gu Rongqi's words, he had already parked the car and put on a brown coat.
Then, he took one dog out of the car on each side, put them on the ground at the same time, and led them towards him.
Cheng Qicai watched his smooth movements, walked over, and said blankly, "You can go first, it won't take me long to sneak over."
"It's okay. We didn't walk Golden Bean today anyway, so walking this short distance is like giving it a walk."
"Oh, is it okay for your car to be parked here?" Cheng Qicai couldn't help but worry as she looked at the luxury car parked so casually on the side of the road.
"It's alright, nothing will be lost here. We'll just call someone to take care of it later."
Okay, she's short-sighted. The people living here aren't short of a luxury car.
Two small dogs on the ground met and, like long-lost friends, wagged their tails enthusiastically at each other and sniffed each other around in circles.
The big green dinosaur costume on Golden Bean and the handsome Black Wind on the other side are completely different styles.
Looking at Huang Jindou's clothes, Cheng Qicai couldn't help but ask, "Why are you wearing a dinosaur costume?"
"What? It doesn't look good?"
“No, it’s just…” Cheng Qicai looked at it carefully, “It doesn’t look like a dinosaur, it looks like a big green orange.”
In fact, Cheng Qicai felt that it was somewhat incongruous for Gu Rongqi to dress her up like this.
Of course, it wasn't the dog that was out of place, but Gu Rongqi.
Looking at the leash that was twisted into a pretzel by the two dogs, Cheng Qicai couldn't help but chuckle. She asked, "How about I lead one of them?"
"It's okay, I'll hold your hand. Your hand was all red just now." Gu Rongqi shook his head and refused.
Upon hearing Gu Rongqi's words, Cheng Qicai was taken aback. Looking at the completely disappeared red mark on the back of her hand, she pursed her lips.
As if to divert attention, she looked down at the two dogs on the ground. "When we bought them, Black Wind and Golden Bean were the same size. How come Black Wind is so much bigger now?"
"Black Wind is a large dog, while Golden Bean is a medium-sized dog, so there will be a size difference," Gu Rongqi explained.
Cheng Qicai suddenly realized and nodded in understanding, "Oh, I was wondering why there was such a big difference!"
“Golden Beans aren’t starving,” Gu Rongqi suddenly said.
Cheng Qicai looked at Gu Rongqi in surprise, and their eyes met.
"I...I didn't mean that," Cheng Qicai stammered.
Seeing Cheng Qicai's flustered expression, Gu Rongqi's lips curled into a slight smile. "Yes, I was just kidding."
"..." When Cheng Qicai heard him say it was a joke, she was speechless.
No, why would I suddenly make such a cold, cheesy joke at her?
But Cheng Qicai thought about it again. It seemed that Gu Rongqi would occasionally make such strange jokes to her in some inexplicable place in the past. Could this be the unique sense of humor of a domineering CEO, whose thought process is different from ordinary people?
Looking at the two dogs walking ahead, Cheng Qicai vented her frustration on them. She asked Gu Rongqi in surprise, "Just now it insisted on going that way, why is it willing to go back now?"
Gu Rongqi pondered for a moment before replying, "It must have come to play with Huang Jindou. When Gu Liji was walking it before, it came to my house to play with Huang Jindou for a while before going back."
Cheng Qicai understood. She wondered why Heifeng was so organized. It turned out he wanted to go play with his friends. Now that he saw the golden beans, he naturally stopped insisting on going towards Gu Rongqi's house.
The two people and their two dogs strolled leisurely down the road, exchanging a few words every now and then, living an ordinary and mundane life.
As Gu Liji slowly walked back to the villa, he saw the two of them walking in with their dog. He went up to them and asked, "Brother Gu, Qicai, why did you two come together?"
"We met on the road," Gu Rongqi replied.
Seeing that Gu Liji was looking at the dog, Cheng Qicai immediately realized that the dog was still in Gu Rongqi's hands, and she snatched the leash from his hand.
Then he smiled politely at Gu Liji, pretending nothing had happened.
But I was incredibly nervous inside. Would Gu Liji skimp on my dog walking fee?
I forgot about it for a moment, otherwise I would have switched the dog with my own hands at the door, and this embarrassing situation wouldn't have happened.
Even if Gu Rongqi led the way for the last half hour, she had actually walked the first half hour herself, so she couldn't be shortchanged by the two thousand five hundred!
This is Cheng Qicai's final bottom line!
"Cheng Qicai, you..."
"My shoelace came undone at the door just now, so I asked Gu Rongqi to get me the dog leash." Cheng Qicai immediately raised her voice to drown out Gu Liji's questioning, her attempt to cover up the truth only making things worse.
"Oh." Gu Liji looked at her coldly. "Maybe Golden Bean and Black Wind are spinning like tops from the doorway to here."
Cheng Qicai looked down at the twisted rope, "..."
"Alright, don't you know how naughty your own dog is?" Gu Rongqi gave him a warning look.
Gu Liji: "..."
He thought that Gu Rongqi would never forget his friends for the sake of a beautiful woman, but it seems that he had overestimated him.
Cheng Qicai looked at Gu Rongqi with emotion, thinking, "There are still many good people in this world!"
Seeing the two people, one looking at him with a reproachful gaze and the other with a touched one, Gu Rongqi turned his head away to avoid the reproachful gaze.
He asked Cheng Qicai, "What do you want to eat?"
"I've already eaten, you can eat."
"Could you look after Golden Beans for me while I wait?"
"good."
"Great, great, he thinks it's great too!" Gu Liji thought through gritted teeth.
