Chapter 21 Meow meow meow meow
It was less than ten o'clock when I finished setting up the stall for the day.
Jian Yunlan rode the tricycle back to the villa, opened the door, and said happily: "I'm going back--"
After seeing the situation inside the door clearly, Jian Yunlan quickly closed the door.
He must have opened the door in the wrong way.
After a moment, Jian Yunlan took a deep breath and slowly opened it again...
Inside the door, it was a mess.
The coffee table was turned over, the vase was missing, and the TV was tilted. The extremely handsome man with silver hair and dark skin sat on the sofa, his exotic golden eyes squinting lazily.
His long hair was tied up in a high ponytail and his shirt was pulled down to his waist, revealing his strong, tight and powerful upper body. His back was marked with bold golden-red gluttonous lines. A bead of sweat slid across the side of his neck and flowed downwards, outlining his firm and distinct abdominal muscles and sinking into his lower abdomen.
Completely inconsistent with this sexually tense scene, Taotie was chewing half a blade of an air conditioner fan: "Chew, chew, chew."
Jian Yunlan: “?”
The butler stood beside Taotie, smiling lovingly like an old eunuch serving the emperor: "Master Taotie, here is another kind of fan, would you like to try it?"
Seeing Jian Yunlan coming back, the housekeeper showed a happy expression: "Master, you are back."
Look, the butler has prepared your favorite handsome guy and is waiting for you to enjoy him!
The housekeeper thought proudly that he had done some research. This kind of handsome guy attribute of 'white hair and black skin' is very rare in the three-dimensional world, but it is a scarce resource and it is very difficult to find a meal replacement.
He must help the young master to serve Lord Taotie.
As a qualified and professional butler, he never said too much, let alone asked why Lord Taotie was sometimes a human and sometimes a dog.
Isn't it normal for a man who suits the young master's taste to have some special abilities?
Seeing Jian Yunlan, Taotie swallowed the fan blade in his mouth in two or three gulps and said dissatisfiedly:
"Human, I'm hungry."
Today, because he helped Jian Yunlan go out to buy vegetables in the early morning, Jian Yunlan did not take him with her when she went to the stall, and let him stay at home to catch up on his sleep.
The result was that when Taotie woke up, he was hungry.
When you are hungry, you need to find something to eat.
What is this? vase? Chew chew chew.
What is this? Air conditioner fan blades? Chew chew chew.
What is this? TV set? …
Jian Yunlan looked at Taotie, then at the mess on the ground, and then at the housekeeper who had an auntie's smile on his face and invited him to "enjoy" the dark-skinned handsome guy.
What kind of hell scroll is this!
Taking a deep breath, and another deep breath, Jian Yunlan forced a smile.
Looking at his face with a hint of death in his smile, Taotie was shocked.
Jian Yunlan's face reminded Taotie of the time when he broke into the underworld and made a scene, and he saw those social animal ghost messengers who followed him around to clean up the mess and worked the 996 hours.
…Although he seemed to be still breathing heavily, he had actually been walking for quite a while.
Taotie became alert: "Human, what do you want to do to me?"
"Master Taotie, for the sake of long-term friendly cooperation in the future, we need to conduct some targeted training."
Jian Yunlan said with a smile.
Taotie had a bad feeling.
An hour later, Zhujin Park in the city center.
Zhujin Park is the park most frequently visited by pet parents in City B. It has a large lawn that is perfect for walking the dog and playing frisbee, as well as shade trees and walkways along the river. Not only people are walking their dogs, but also cats, turtles, and birds. Previously, someone even brought his own lizard to bask in the sun.
Dog parents gathered in groups of two or three to show off their furry children and flatter each other:
"Uncle Wang, your French bulldog is really well-raised. Look at its size and its little nose. Oh my."
"No, no, it's still your Samoyed Shui Ling who is so obedient after being trained!"
"Hey, when it comes to large dogs, who can compare to the ones in Director Gu's family? They are all smarter and stronger than the other, and they can run faster than police dogs..."
Surrounded by the crowd was a middle-aged man in a Tang suit. He had gray hair but looked energetic. The man held five ropes in his hand, and five large dogs stayed at his feet obediently.
Border Collie, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Alaskan, and even a Husky!
Those five big dogs looked well-fed. Each of them was fat and strong, and their fur was groomed to be smooth and shiny.
Gu Tiancheng didn't have any special hobbies in his life, he just liked raising dogs, and he treated the dogs better than his own sons. What he was most proud of was not that he had built the prosperous Gu Group from scratch, nor that he had bought a mansion with thousands of acres of land and a private jet, nor that he had rung the bell at NASDAQ, but rather -
His dog!
Strolling around Zhujin Park every week is Gu Tiancheng's highlight moment. He is so proud of himself in the envious praises of other dog owners that he doesn't know what year it is...
Gu Tiancheng dared to say that in such a huge city like B, no one could train a large dog better than him or raise one that was stronger and more beautiful than him!
Suddenly, Aunt Yang next to me pointed ahead and exclaimed: "That dog is so beautiful!"
Everyone looked over.
"So strong and impressive!"
"Speaking of beauty, who can compare to Mr. Gu's Dahei... Hey, it's really pretty."
"Wow, this muscle and this body are not inferior to Dahei."
Gu Tiancheng’s face froze.
The German Shepherd is big and black, but he is qualified to be a police dog. Gu Tiancheng took a lot of effort to bring him home. He is Gu Tiancheng's proudest and most beloved furry child.
Who is it, whose dog is more beautiful than his beloved Dahei?
Gu Tiancheng hurriedly followed the direction of everyone's gaze.
On the sidewalk not far away, a handsome young man was walking with a large dog.
Gu Tiancheng's attention was immediately attracted by the dog.
——This fur, this body shape, this agile and smooth muscle lines, and this majestic and gorgeous silver hair. Not only that, but it also had two large, fluffy, upright ears, with flaming green-red fur on the tips, and dark-gold pupils like gemstones. It looked like a mythical beast that had stepped out of a painting...
You know what, it’s really beautiful.
What was even more eye-catching was the demeanor of the large dog. It held its head high and chest out, with the aura of a person who had long been in a superior position and was naturally majestic without being angry, and its golden eyes were half-opened in a nonchalant manner.
Commonly known as the aura of a king!
"It's just a little bit worse than my Dahei." Gu Tiancheng snorted sourly, unwilling to admit his love for him, and was immediately outdone. "She may be pretty, but she may not be good at training."
Dog lovers all know that raising a dog is 30% about raising it and 70% about training it.
Many large dogs are good-looking but are not well trained. They guard their food, disobey instructions, or even bite people. These are all due to the owners' negligence.
Uncle Wang said, "Yes, yes. The more beautiful and majestic the large dog is, the harder it is to train. Not everyone has the talent for training dogs like Director Gu."
Gu Tiancheng's back, which had just bent, straightened up again!
However.
"Maomao, sit down!" the young man said, with his palms flat.
There was a hint of reluctance in the big dog's eyes.
Human, I am not a dog, why should I listen to your orders!
The young man raised his eyebrows, whispered something into the big dog's ear, and then made a mouth shape...
'Wonton noodles. '
Wait, wonton noodles?
Some onlookers who understood the lip reading scratched their heads uncertainly.
What Jian Yunlan said was: "Master Taotie, who has done great deeds and is so brave, I will go back and make wonton noodles for you!"
The big dog's ears twitched, and it was obvious that it was struggling violently.
After a moment, it lowered its head and sat down obediently.
Its body shape is truly elegant and beautiful, and when it sits with its two front paws folded, it has an indescribable air of arrogance and nobility that is truly amazing to behold.
"Isn't it just sitting down? Every dog can do it, not to mention Dahei, even Xiaoqi can do it." Gu Tiancheng said disdainfully. Xiaoqi is his Husky, who is difficult to train by nature and loves to destroy things, but now he has mastered many commands.
Who knows, the next second.
"Maomao, turn around!" The big dog turned beautifully.
"Maomao, bow!" The big dog stood on its two hind legs, clasped its front paws together, and made a perfect bow.
"Maomao, dance!" As the young people played the music of "Huo Yuanjia", the big dog's ears trembled, and it turned and rolled rhythmically to the music, dancing gracefully and domineeringly to the beat of the drums.
Onlookers: “?”
Gu Tiancheng: “???”
No, man.
You must be kidding me! ! !
"Maomao, fly!"
Taotie: “…”
Human, don't push your luck!
Forget it, I won’t bother with this mortal and will just obey him again.
Who made him the mighty and brave Taotie with boundless merits? Taotie thought complacently.
...a more realistic idea is:
Wonton noodles. Slurp, slurp.
After a short run, Taotie curled up its hind legs, kicked the ground hard, and flew into the air.
Its long silver hair fluttered in the wind and it stayed in the air for a full five seconds. Its golden pupils were burning like flames, making it look like a divine beast descending from the sky.
Everyone was amazed.
“Wow, this is wonderful!”
"This dog is so humane."
"This is really convincing. I have raised dogs for so many years and I have never seen a dog like this."
Gu Tiancheng gritted his teeth, feeling sour in his heart, and tried to save his face angrily: "This is nothing. If my Dahei finds a teacher to train him specifically, he can also..."
Everyone looked at him with sympathy.
It must be a bad feeling to have raised a dog for a lifetime and yet be outdone by a young person.
Suddenly, a timid figure beside him bumped into Gu Tiancheng quickly, and Gu Tiancheng felt his pocket lighten.
His wallet is missing!
"Ah, thief, there's a thief!" Aunt Yang screamed.
Gu Tiancheng touched his pocket and cried out, "My wallet was stolen!"
The documents, credit cards and cash in the wallet are not important. The most important thing is that there is a photo of his late wife in the wallet... The wife in the photo has never suffered from illness. She is smiling carefree and helping her unborn child embroider tiger-head shoes.
After his wife left, he never remarried, and this photo was the only thing that kept him going. He had kept it close to his body for so many years, but he never expected that his wallet would be snatched away on the street.
Gu Tiancheng was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
The German Shepherd Black had been trained as a police dog, so he rushed over immediately, barking, “Woof woof woof,” but the thief was running very fast on his electric bike, and his back was getting smaller and smaller until he was almost invisible!
Suddenly, a voice sounded:
"Maomao, chase!"
A silver figure flashed past like lightning.
The figure was as fast as a hurricane, and soon left Dahei, Xiaoqi and other dogs behind. Like the white Grim Reaper, it was closing in on the fleeing thief, getting closer and closer.
Then, it pounced!
The thief never expected that he would be caught up by a dog while riding his electric bike at full speed.
"What the hell, what the hell, dog??!"
An extremely violent force, carrying a bloody murderous aura, pinned the thief to the ground.
The big dog looked down at him, its dark golden pupils glowing with a lazy red light, and it had the intimidating aura of a top predator.
"Ahhh, Mr. Dog, I was wrong. I will never dare to steal things again. Wuuuu..." The thief's snot and tears flowed down and he kowtowed repeatedly.
Taotie: “…”
'Dog-sama'?
Bold!
Taotie's eyes darkened and his sharp fangs were revealed.
…The thief’s eyes rolled back and he fainted from fright!
Humph, you are weak and shameless, a rat.
Taotie walked down from the thief and leisurely combed his hair with his claws.
The police arrived quickly.
After hearing that Maomao defeated the thief single-handedly, the police were amazed: "This dog is really capable and well trained. Our police dogs have to learn from Maomao."
Other dog owners also surrounded them, praising them one after another:
"Yes, yes!" "The Paw Patrol has done a great job." "The owner has trained the dog well. It's not easy to train such a big dog." "What a brave and good dog."
Taotie raised his head proudly and lost himself in the praises.
...This dog is becoming more and more skilled.
"It's not that exaggerated," Jian Yunlan said modestly while holding Taotie's leash, "I'm just an amateur."
Gu Tiancheng took back his wallet and checked it carefully. The photo of my wife was intact, without even a wrinkle.
When he looked at Jian Yunlan and Taotie again, his attitude immediately changed, with admiration and praise that could not be expressed in words.
Not long ago, Gu Tiancheng was jealous and looked down on Jian Yunlan because her dog was better than his, but now——
Jian Yunlan raised a good dog, and he deserves it. This is what they call a hero at a young age!
This dog is a good dog, brave and kind. His Dahei needs to practice more and try to be as good as others!
With tears streaming down his face, Gu Tiancheng was moved as he held Jian Yunlan's hand: "Young man, you and Maomao really helped me a lot. It's not an exaggeration to say that you are my saviors..."
Jian Yunlan said, "No, no, as a three-good citizen, this is all my responsibility."
Gu Tiancheng: "This is my business card and my phone number. I'll invite you to my house for a gathering someday. You must give this old man this opportunity and repay you well!"
He handed over his business card, on which were written the words 'Chairman of Yuanzhou Group' in large gold letters.
If it were someone else, they would probably have jumped up with excitement by now.
——The Chairman of Yuanzhou Group, to have Chairman Gu owe him such a big favor, this is enormous wealth, it is not an exaggeration to say that he has reached the sky overnight!
But Jian Yunlan just glanced at him indifferently.
Who is Gu Tiancheng? Don’t know.
He set up a stall downstairs of Yuanzhou Group for a few days, but only now did he find out that the boss of Yuanzhou Group was surnamed Gu.
It really is a surname that came out of a novel. Jian Yunlan sighed.
Could it be that the protagonist's surname is also this? It’s not such a coincidence, haha.
Jian Yunlan put the business card into his pocket and did not intend to have further contact with the other party, because Jian Yunlan did not think that he had done anything big, it was just a casual act of kindness.
After the work is done, I will leave, hiding my achievements and fame...
Gu Tiancheng was moved and continued, "I am an old man. I don't have any hobbies. I just like raising dogs. We can exchange experiences in raising dogs in the future."
"Oh?" Jian Yunlan became a little interested.
"I just started raising dogs recently, and I don't know a lot of things. If Mr. Gu is willing to teach me, that would be great."
Gu Tiancheng: "Hahaha, you just started raising a dog? You are so modest."
He obviously trained dogs so well, but he said he had just started raising one. Gu Tiancheng thought, this kid really has the virtue of humility and concealing his shortcomings, which is rare among young people nowadays.
Looking at Jian Yunlan, Gu Tiancheng admired her more and more and nodded repeatedly.
What a good boy!
Live broadcast room of all worlds.
【……】
[Okay, Boss Jian doesn’t know Director Gu, why am I not surprised at all?]
[Lord Taotie, you are so cute and handsome... (vomits blood) (dies from vomiting blood) Is this still the ancient beast that once dominated the world and was brutal and murderous! 】
[Boss Jian!] No! know! Director Gu! 】
[What kind of leak was picked up by Boss Jian? Not only did he do Director Gu such a big favor, but he also made Director Gu admire him very much. Chairman Gu in the original novel is clearly very majestic and cunning, but who would have known that his biggest hobby is raising dogs (wow)]
[New audience, the host doesn’t even know Gu Tiancheng? Hahaha, is he going to say next that he doesn’t know who the main character of “Paranoia” is? He must be pretending, right? ? ? Dear viewers, please tell me that he is pretending, right QAQ? ? 】
【silence】
【Silence is Cambridge tonight】
[He may...really not know...]
.
Wednesday, 6:30 AM.
The curtains were drawn open with a swish, Bei Shi looked at her boyfriend on the bed and whispered, "Baby, get up."
Zhang Mo opened his eyes sleepily and yawned: "Wife, why did you get up so early..."
He glanced at his watch and screamed, "Six-thirty?! Are you serious?!"
As product managers, their work and rest schedules are different from those of ordinary people. They often get off work at eight, nine or even ten o'clock in the evening. Therefore, their working hours are also later than normal people. They can clock in at ten o'clock or even eleven o'clock.
Usually, Zhang Mo would sleep until at least nine o'clock, then hurriedly bite a piece of bread and go out to catch the 9:20 bus.
And today, Bei Shi actually woke him up at six o'clock in the morning. How could she let him live?
Zhang Mo's eyes rolled back and he almost fainted.
"You've always wanted me to take you to work, haven't you?" Bei Shi's tone was gentle, but for some reason, it sounded strange. She smiled and said, "I'll take you to work today~"
After being stunned for a moment, Zhang Mo felt a little moved.
It turned out that this was why Bei Shi woke him up early.
Before, when he missed the bus and asked Bei Shi to send him off, she was reluctant.
For an agent who works a reversed day and night schedule, it is not easy to get a good night's sleep.
But today, Bei Shi actually took the initiative to take him to work and even got up early for this purpose!
This is really the sun rising in the west.
It seems that even though his wife says she doesn't care whether he lives or dies, she still loves him in her heart.
Zhang Mo looked at Bei Shi, who was neatly dressed, and became happier and happier. In order to send him to work, Bei Shi actually put on makeup, wore beautiful clothes, and even sprayed perfume!
This was the treatment they had only enjoyed when they had just started their relationship a few years ago.
Zhang Mo got up, washed, and changed his clothes. Although he was sleep deprived, he felt very happy. He shaved, put on a high-end suit, and sprayed cologne.
There was a diamond ring in the secret drawer of the bathroom. He had saved up for a long time to buy it. Zhang Mo had been thinking about when would be the best time to propose.
Maybe, today is that special day!
Zhang Mo happily put the ring into his pocket. For a love-minded office worker who has struggled for many years, nothing is more nourishing than sweet love.
All the depression that had accumulated after working for so long was swept away, and Zhang Mo felt the corpse was warm.
When Zhang Mo came out of the shower, Bei Shi had already changed her shoes and looked mysteriously radiant: "Baby, shall we set off now?"
"Leaving now?" Zhang Mo was a little surprised. "It's only seven o'clock."
It only takes forty minutes to drive there, and he doesn't go to work until ten o'clock.
"Yes, yes," Bei Shi said confidently, "What if there's a traffic jam and you're late in line... No, it's not good for you to be late for work. You have to leave a good impression on your boss."
What's the point of leaving a good impression on the boss? He is not a new intern. He has been working in Yuanzhou Group for seven years!
However, as a qualified Sichuan henpecked man, Zhang Mo always obeyed his wife's decisions unconditionally.
Zhang Mo nodded: "Okay, let's go."
Although there was a traffic jam during the morning rush hour, an hour and a half later, at 8:30 in the morning, Bei Shi's Tesla parked downstairs of Yuanzhou Group.
Looking at Bei Shi who was skillfully reversing the car into the parking space with a focused look in her eyes, Zhang Mo's eyes were full of love. He thought Bei Shi was so handsome. Not only did she get up early to send him to work, but she was also so gentle to him. How could he deserve this!
What should I do if my wife loves me too much?
The car arrived, but Bei Shi did not move and did not urge Zhang Mo to go to work. She sat in the car, her eyes deep and sharp, looking at a corner downstairs in the company.
Zhang Mo: “?”
Zhang Mo: "Wife, what are you doing looking at that?"
If he remembered correctly, that corner... seemed to be the location of the fried rice stall?
Bei Shi coughed, looked away, and smiled: "Nothing, there is a kitten over there, it looks delicious - no, it looks very pretty."
Zhang Mo: "Oh oh."
The two stopped talking again.
In that unspeakable silence, Zhang Mo took the briefcase and said hesitantly:
"Wife... I'll be leaving first. Be careful on your way back."
But Bei Shi grabbed him.
She hesitated, as if she was thinking about something: "Don't leave, I have something to ask of you."
Zhang Mo's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that Bei Shi and he have a mutual understanding? She is dressed so perfectly today and treats him so warmly. Could it be that... she also wants to propose?
I have something to ask of him, I really want to ask of him - please give me your guidance for the rest of my life?
Zhang Mo touched the ring box in his pocket, swallowed, his heart beating fast, and thought about what he was going to say next.
So excited and nervous.
Bei Shi looked at the corner of the fried rice stall in the distance, vigilantly scanning the surroundings for any potential "competitors", and swallowed her saliva.
So excited and nervous.
Time passed minute by minute, and suddenly, the crisp sound of a tricycle's bell came from the distance.
"The time has come..." Bei Shi murmured, her eyes burning.
"Yes, the time has come, but our love is eternal." Zhang Mo looked at Bei Shi lovingly, his eyes equally fiery.
With endless tenderness burning in his heart, Zhang Mo got out of the car and knelt on one knee, "Dear, for so many years, I have something hidden in my heart that I want to tell you..."
He took out the ring from his pocket with trembling hands: "I want to ask, are you willing to marry--"
“…It’s time to eat fried rice!”
Bei Shi looked at Boss Jian's fried rice stall in the distance, her mouth watering. She waved her hands happily and ran towards the fried rice stall like an ape, shouting as she ran:
"Zhang Mo, why don't you keep up? Why are you just standing there in a daze?"
Bei Shi turned around and looked at Zhang Mo, who was kneeling on one knee, holding the diamond ring.
Zhang Mo also looked at her with tears in his eyes.
“…”
“…”
All these years of love and time were ultimately wasted!
