Zeng Fang snorted, "I won't compete with you."
"Why don't you use your pepper spray to spit him? Aren't you good at spitting mine?"
"In my bag. I didn't bring my bag."
Shen Zhen sneered, "So that thing of yours is specifically used to deal with me, right?"
Zeng Fang couldn't help but defend herself, "How could I have known that I would run into a gangster when I went to the toilet?"
"There are so many things you can't imagine. Go back and find a rope and tie that thing around your neck. I don't have the time to save you every time."
Zeng Fang wanted to say that he didn't need your help, but the other party had just helped him, so he just kept silent.
The two of them were standing in the aisle outside the toilet. Not only was there a lot of people coming and going, but the smell was also unpleasant. Seeing Zeng Fang raising her hand to cover her nose from time to time, Shen Zhen put down his folded arms, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and walked forward lazily.
"Leave."
Zeng Fang followed behind him, making funny faces at his back with a grin, little knowing that the reflective material of the wall reflected her movements and expressions clearly.
After walking through the corridor, Shen Zhen did not go up the stairs to the second floor, but walked towards another exit opposite the bar door.
Zeng Fang was about to stop, but Shen Zhen turned around as if he had eyes on his back and said, "Follow me, I have something to ask you."
When he got outside, he found that this was the side door of the bar for delivery. There was a tricycle parked at the door, loaded with several baskets of wine and a basket of seasonal fruits. A young waiter was moving the baskets of wine from the car into the bar. When he saw Shen Zhen coming out, he made way with fear and trepidation.
"Second Master Shen."
Shen Zhen ignored the waiter and walked to a secluded place nearby before stopping and taking out a cigarette case.
After lighting a cigarette, Shen Zhen turned around and looked at her.
"What have you been feeding Fake these past two days?"
"No, I did as you said. I only fed him drinking water and dog food."
Shen Zhen took a puff of his cigarette, "How can Fake gain two kilograms in three days by only eating dog food? Do you think you are raising pigs?"
After hearing that Fak had gained two kilograms in three days, Zeng Fang subconsciously touched her belly. Could she have also gained two kilograms?
Seeing her like this, there was nothing Shen Zhen didn't understand.
"Didn't I tell you not to feed it anything else? It's too old, and excessive obesity will make it dangerous."
Zeng Fang explained guiltily: "I just fed it a chicken leg and a sausage..."
"Did you really only eat these two?"
"Yeah, every day."
“…”
The time for walking the dog is exactly the time for her to have dinner. After taking the dog out every day, Zeng Fang will go to a nearby stall to buy some food for dinner.
At first, she also kept Shen Zhen's words in mind and did not feed the dog randomly.
But when she was having dinner, the golden retriever squatted on the ground, looking at her with longing eyes and drooling all over the floor. She couldn't help but bought a chicken leg for the golden retriever.
Then the golden retriever especially liked to eat sausages. When passing by a stall selling sausages, it refused to leave and insisted that Zeng Fang buy one for it.
"I'm sorry, I won't feed it next time."
Shen Zhen sneered, "Just say sorry and that's it?"
"So what do you want?"
"You should make it lose weight based on what you feed it, and then walk it for an extra 15 minutes every day."
Shen Zhen put out his cigarette on the wall, and looked at her lazily with his hands folded. "There's not enough time in the afternoon. You can go at noon. Come over after school for half an hour, and then walk for another fifteen minutes in the afternoon."
"It takes me half an hour to ride my bike to your place and back, and then another half an hour to walk the dog. Adding the time I wasted, it will take at least more than an hour. I don't need to eat lunch? Do you want to starve me to death?"
Shen Zhen put his tongue against his teeth and thought for a while, "How about this, the nanny will come to clean the house in the morning, I'll ask her to make you some food for lunch."
When Zeng Fang heard that he asked the nanny to cook for her, her anger subsided a little.
"I can practice French for an extra 15 minutes every day, but I also have a condition. I need to rest during holidays, not only the National Day holiday, but also the weekends in the future."
Shen Zhen sneered, "It's up to you. Anyway, it's based on the number of days you work. I'll make an attendance sheet and post it at home. You can come and punch in every day until the number of days is up."
Zeng Fang said nothing, which meant she agreed to his proposal.
In the bar, Shao Mo and Ling Chuan had already returned. As soon as they came back, they heard about Zeng Fang's conflict with someone.
After learning that Zeng Fang had been taken away by Shen Zhen for a while, Shao Mo was worried and wanted to go downstairs to look for her. As a result, she met Zeng Fang who had returned as soon as she reached the stairs.
"Fangfang, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, Momo."
"Make way."
Shen Zhen had gone upstairs at some point and stood at the stairs, looking down at the two of them.
Shao Mo pulled Zeng Fang aside.
Shen Zhen walked lazily past the two of them, bringing up a cold breeze mixed with a familiar woody scent.
Shao Mo subconsciously glanced at Shen Zhen's back, then looked at Zeng Fang in front of her.
"What's wrong? There's something on my face."
Zeng Fang touched her face curiously.
Shao Mo suppressed her doubts and smiled casually, "Yes, it's a little bit cute."
Zeng Fang was teased unexpectedly, her cheeks flushed, "Oh, Momo, you are so annoying, you always tell the truth."
The two returned to their seats, and the others asked Zeng Fang if she was okay. The girl who was protected by Zeng Fang thanked Zeng Fang with gratitude and guilt.
"Thank you so much. When I saw you clashing with that person, I really wanted to help, but I was scared. I wanted to come up and call other people, but I was afraid something might happen to you down there alone. I'm sorry, am I really useless?"
Zeng Fang patted the other person's shoulder nonchalantly and said, "It's okay. Sometimes people are frightened and confused, and they don't know what to do."
The girl looked at her in admiration and said, "You are so brave. You picked up the beer bottle and threw it at me. I was stunned."
Zeng Fang was silent for a while before speaking, "The only way to deal with bullying is to fight back fiercely. There is no other way out."
Everyone thought that Zeng Fang was born to hate evil, but only Shao Mo understood that Zeng Fang dared to fight back because of the terrible experiences he had in the past.
I have been caught in the rain before, so I want to hold an umbrella for others on rainy days.
At this moment, passionate rock music came from the band's stage below, and the atmosphere in the bar became heated again. Everyone else stood up and leaned on the railing to watch the performance, but Zeng Fang, who loved the lively atmosphere the most, curled up in the sofa, looking depressed.
Shao Mo gently put her arm around her shoulders to comfort her, "Are you okay?"
Zeng Fang leaned her head on her shoulder and whispered softly, "Momo, if only I had the courage and guts to fight back like I do today."
