Chapter 11. The person Yuehe actually likes is me. ...
Yan Min also noticed Gou Qing.
To be precise, before his daughter even left the house, he saw the man standing downstairs at his daughter's apartment building with a Border Collie.
Because there was a dog nearby, Yan Min put on an N95 mask and slowly circled around her daughter's apartment building waiting for her.
When circling around, with nothing else to do, one's eyes inevitably fall on the man in the distance.
The young man looked quite muscular, with very prominent muscles on his arms. Yan Min couldn't help but wonder: Did he get those muscles from walking the dog?
Oh dear, her looks and figure don't quite match.
Yan Min thought regretfully: This figure would be even better with a square face.
Just as many people think that a baby's flat head looks good, Yan Min's highest praise for a man is: square face.
Don't ask why, the answer is simply because he didn't have it.
"Dad, why didn't you call me first when you arrived?" Yan Yuehe jogged to his side and naturally took her father's arm.
Yan Min raised her hand and pushed up her glasses: "What's the rush? You'll come out when you're all packed. If I call to tell you I've arrived and you panic, and then forget something, your mother will blame me for not handling things properly."
"By the way, do you know that young man with the Border Collie?" Yan Min had just seen his daughter stop to talk to him.
Yan Yuehe briefly explained the relationship between the man and the dog to her father: "That young man is Pang Bao's father-in-law, and that Border Collie is Pang Bao's girlfriend, named Atlas."
“Atlas?” Yan Min repeated after her daughter, “Why does that young man have a foreign name? Is he mixed race?”
Yan Yuehe was silent for a few seconds: "Dad... Atlas is the name of a dog."
Yan Min wasn't embarrassed at all, and cheerfully continued to ask, "What was that person's name?"
"I don't know either." Yan Yuehe asked curiously, "Dad, why are you asking him?"
"It's rare to see you with friends you can talk to, so I asked you a couple of questions out of curiosity." The father and daughter were talking as they reached the entrance of the residential area.
Yan Yuehe honestly exposed her father's overthinking: "Dad, how can you have friends whose names you don't even know?"
She paused, then defined their relationship: "We're at most... a little more familiar than strangers."
Yan Min nodded and said nothing more.
He himself is not a very sociable person, and it is safe to say that Nongnong's personality is 100% derived from him, so he never forces his daughter to make more friends.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Yan Min took a picture of her daughter standing at the hospital entrance and sent it to He Yanli: "Mission accomplished."
After cooperating with the photo taking, Yan Yuehe resigned herself to queuing at the blood drawing window on the first floor.
The father and daughter arrived early today. There weren't many people at the hospital, and it was only a little past nine o'clock by the time she finished all her tests.
With a candy in her mouth, Yan Yuehe looked up and asked, "Dad, shall we have breakfast together?"
Yan Min shook her head, her tone helpless: "Never mind, I don't dare."
He wore a mask throughout the entire medical check-up he accompanied his daughter.
Yan Yuehe couldn't guarantee that she really didn't have a single dog hair on her body.
Thinking about how my dad's whole body turned red and he kept scratching himself when he had an allergic reaction last time, I gave up the idea of having breakfast with him.
Yan Min escorted his daughter home, and as they were about to part, he inexplicably thought of the man downstairs at his daughter's house again.
"By the way," he suddenly said, "I saw that fat man's father-in-law loitering downstairs at your house for a long time this morning. Since he's not a friend, you should keep an eye on him and always put your safety first."
Yan Yuehe was stunned.
She had just gotten out of the car when she heard the honking of the car behind her. She could only give a hurried reply and then close the door.
She had only taken two steps toward the entrance of the residential area when Yan Min told her to keep an eye out for her dog, Atlas, came into her sight again.
It's a bit different from this morning.
Gou Qing has changed her clothes.
Yan Yuehe didn't know much about clothing matching, but he felt that he looked much more formal and serious now compared to this morning.
In short, he doesn't look like someone who's going to walk their dog.
Their eyes met.
Yan Yuehe instinctively tried to dodge, but Atlas suddenly ran towards her wagging its tail.
As soon as the puppy moved, the man holding the leash had to change direction as well.
Who could resist such an adorable and well-behaved puppy?
Yan Yuehe squatted down and reached out to pat Atlas's head, apologizing, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be mean to you this morning."
Atlas barked twice, its little tail still wagging, clearly not taking it to heart at all.
The puppy doesn't care, but the person does.
"You seemed very anxious this morning, did something happen?" Gou Qing's voice was soft and his speech was slow, sounding like a casual question.
Yan Yuehe: "It's nothing, just going for a physical exam."
She asked shyly, "Hey dog, are you done walking your dog? Are you walking it again today?"
But clearly, this issue has already crossed the line into the current relationship between the two.
He needed to calm down, reassess her feelings for him, and, more importantly, reflect on his own feelings and heart.
We should stop here.
"I'm not walking the dog today, I'm going on a business trip for a few days." Gou Qing lowered her eyelashes and noticed an unusual color on the inside of her arm. "Why is your arm red?"
Yan Yuehe followed his gaze and said, "You were in a hurry to do other procedures after the blood draw, so you probably didn't press it properly."
She wouldn't have noticed if he hadn't pointed it out.
The focus shouldn't be on a poorly pressed pinhole. Yan Yuehe asked, "If you're going on a business trip for a few days..."
Gou Qing stared intently at her, a sense of anticipation rising within him for what she was about to say.
Yan Yuehe patted Atlas's head, her eyes glistening with moisture: "What about Atlas? Its due date is approaching, and it needs someone to care for it."
So, should we consider having Atlas fostered at her home for a while?
Yan Yuehe really wanted to help him, but she was too embarrassed to ask.
Taking the initiative to do this was still somewhat difficult for her.
Especially since Atlas was going through a special period, she was also very afraid that she wouldn't be able to take good care of him.
But if her in-laws take the initiative to ask, she will try her best to do so!
Gou Qing's expectations were dampened, but then he thought: just as he felt it was not appropriate to ask who that man was for the time being, she was probably worried that saying something too intimate would offend him, right?
"I will send Atlas to Yu Zhi. Don't worry, if it really goes into labor while I'm away on a business trip, Yu Zhi can deliver it safely."
Send it to Dr. Yu...
That person is definitely more trustworthy than her.
"It's fine." Yan Yuehe scratched her head a few times, stood up, and prepared to say goodbye to her dog in-laws. "Then I'll go home first."
She smiled at the puppy first: "Atlas, I'm leaving now."
Then he waved to his dog in-laws and said, "Goodbye, dog in-laws, have a safe journey."
Bon Voyage.
Because of those four words, Gou Qing's mood inexplicably brightened. He raised his hand to cover the corner of his upturned lips: "Goodbye."
Yan Yuehe didn't take Yan Min's words to heart. It wasn't that she didn't trust her father, but after getting to know her dog in-laws, she knew that although they were difficult to get along with, they weren't bad people.
She walked quickly home, ordering a bowl of beef noodles on the way.
"Pangbao." Yan Yuehe rarely lets Pangbao stay home alone; she's actually quite worried her dog son won't adapt. "Mommy's home!"
As soon as she opened the door, she was startled by the shredded paper scattered all over the room.
As Pangbao ran around, the scraps of paper that had been lying on the ground started to float up again.
"Woof woof!"
Mom smells like Atlas!
Yan Yuehe watched as T jumped up and pawed at her dog son, and felt a terrible headache.
She reached out and grabbed its head, first checking deep inside its mouth for any scraps of paper.
Fatty's eyes sparkled, and he obediently tilted his head back, letting his mother examine him.
"It's become a bad guy, it's even destroying the house now." Yan Yuehe let go of it, stood up and looked at the mess in the living room.
Fatty didn't play with anything else; he just chewed up all the toilet paper.
Normally, there are tissues in the living room, but Fatty has never shown any interest in them.
Today, she happened to have run out of toilet paper in the bathroom, so she opened a new roll but forgot to put it in, leaving it aside before leaving.
I guess Fatty bumped into the cabinet, and the paper rolled down. When it saw that the paper could move, it started playing with it like a toy.
While Yan Yuehe was cleaning, Pangbao would follow behind her, biting the leash and whimpering.
Judging from the difficulty of her tidying up, it can be determined that the dog's activity level in the morning has met the standard.
“There’s no future in being a simp,” Yan Yuehe said softly, pulling the leash out of its mouth and throwing it onto a high cabinet. “Atlas will never fall in love with a childish puppy like you who loves playing with tissues.”
Despite her words, Yan Yuehe ultimately couldn't resist her dog son's pitiful whining.
But since Atlas had already gone out in the morning, she decided to take her dog son to find Atlas when it was cooler in the evening.
For her, it was much easier to ask Dr. Yu to walk the dog with her than to ask her dog-loving in-laws to walk the dog.
Without needing to mentally prepare herself, she easily typed on the screen: "Dr. Yu, would you like to walk the dog together this afternoon? Fatty really wants to play with Atlas."
While giving her older brother relationship advice, Yu Zhi saw a new message and looked up to interrupt Gou Qing, who was giving her a long-winded analysis: "Brother, if your analysis was correct, then I have my doubts..."
"The person Yuehe likes is actually me."
