Chapter 612 Pet Dog
Huo Juncheng knew from the beginning that Chen Jie was not a simple person at all, and everything that happened before him just verified his previous guess.
"Oh, this is really interesting." Huo Juncheng stroked the scratches on the drawer with his palm, his eyes full of ruthlessness.
The next day, Huo Juncheng found a famous locksmith to replace the lock.
"What are you doing? Why are you making things so complicated, changing the locks and the safe?" Lin Yilan stood at the door of the study, quietly watching the master working inside.
Huo Juncheng was not so serious before, why has he suddenly become cautious in the past few days?
"I'm worried that the things inside will be stolen. After all, they are all business secrets." When Huo Juncheng said this, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, but the smile did not reach his eyes. He stared at Chen Jie in the distance, and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.
Chen Jie also noticed the scrutiny he was receiving. He pursed his lips, a barely perceptible hint of hatred flashing across his eyes.
"I think you are just worrying too much. Who in this family would touch your things? You are such a deep-minded person." Lin Yilan pouted and complained a few words.
"Alright, alright, it's just changing a lock, it's not a big deal. Lanlan, don't stand here and watch him do such a boring thing. Go back to the house and rest, okay?"
Grandma Huo was also a person who had seen the world. She knew very well who Huo Juncheng was guarding against today, but she was old and didn't want to worry about the affairs of this generation.
"Yes, grandma."
"Xiao Jie, you come with us." The child had a lot on his mind, and seeing Huo Juncheng like this, he was probably going to think too much.
Sister Xiu was also a smart person, and she quickly helped the old lady walk into the living room.
Chen Jie stood there quietly. When he looked up, he saw Huo Juncheng still staring at him. The smile on the corner of his mouth had long disappeared. His cold look made people shudder.
Chen Jie clenched his hands hanging by his side, turned around and went into the living room.
Huo Juncheng was not in a hurry. The good show had just begun. The fox would always show its tail.
In the living room, Grandma Huo and Lin Yilan were sitting on the sofa, with only Chen Jie and Sister Xiu standing aside.
"Child, why are you still standing? Sit down." Grandma Huo might be old, and she feels soft-hearted about everything she sees.
Right now, I can't stand the pitiful look of the good child in front of me with his eyes lowered. It seems that he is really afraid of being abandoned by people, so he lives his life here cautiously.
Lin Yilan was also soft-hearted, probably because she was a mother now. She simply couldn't bear to see Chen Jie like this.
"Come on, come into your sister's arms."
When Chen Jie heard Lin Yilan calling him, he slowly raised his head. There were already two lines of tears on his fair little face, and his red eyes made Lin Yilan startled.
"Don't cry, Xiaojie. If you have something unhappy, tell your sister, okay?"
Grandma Huo couldn't bear to see this poor child in this state, "Don't cry, my good child."
Chen Jie still stood there without moving an inch, his hands constantly picking at the corners of his clothes out of nervousness, like an abandoned orphan who was cautious in his new family. Sister Xiu felt so distressed seeing this.
"What happened, Xiaojie? Can you tell me?"
"I'm afraid of being kicked out. Sister, please don't kick me out. I'll be very good."
Chen Jie's voice was choked with sobs, and every word he said hit Lin Yilan's heart. She felt as if her heart was torn apart by someone, and the pain was indescribable.
Lin Yilan also wanted to cry a little, "Don't be afraid, Xiaojie, sister won't drive you out. This is Xiaojie's home. Xiaojie can stay here with peace of mind. Don't be sad, okay."
Lin Yilan felt that it was all her fault and that she had not taken care of the child's psychological problems.
Originally, Xiaojie was an abandoned person, and he must have longed for love and a sense of security in his heart, but she did not stand by him and understand his heart at the first time. She was really unqualified.
Chen Jie sobbed and raised his little hands to hug Lin Yilan, hiding his little head in Lin Yilan's neck. Lin Yilan clearly felt the moisture in his eyes, and her heart softened.
In order to compensate Chen Jie and make him feel warm, Lin Yilan bought him a dog, a pure white Samoyed, which was particularly adorable.
After being trained by the boss, the dog is very human-like. He can understand human language, bow to people, and help Sister Xiu with some simple housework.
Both Lin Yilan and Grandma Huo like it very much. This house is too big and sometimes feels lonely. It would be nice to keep a few living things. However, because of her pregnancy, Grandma Huo does not allow Lin Yilan to get too close to the dog, for fear that something might happen to her body.
Chen Jie likes this dog very much. On the first day the dog arrived, he played with it happily, running around everywhere, and became much more lively.
"Xiaojie, do you like this dog?" Lin Yilan called him over, hoping to spend more time with him.
"like"
"Then, Xiaojie, give it a name?"
"Then let's call him Abai." Chen Jie spoke in a low voice.
Lin Yilan was already very happy. Xiaojie's condition was much better than before. At least he was willing to speak now, whereas he was unwilling to speak before.
"Okay, let's call him Abai. Xiaojie, you have to get along well with Abai."
"Um"
Huo Juncheng has been very busy with work recently and has almost no time to accompany Lin Yilan, but he still insists on going home to accompany Lin Yilan before eight o'clock every day.
Besides, there is an unknown person at home, so he can't completely relax and let Lin Yilan stay at home alone.
"I bought Xiaojie a Samoyed today, just for him to play with. He looks so happy, and I'm happy too. It's a pity that Xiaojie has such a hard life. I must make sure he grows up healthy."
Lin Yilan happily shared her happiness today with Huo Juncheng, but Huo Juncheng didn't react at all.
"What are you doing? You're always like this. Xiaojie is very sensitive. He can sense that you don't like him. He's so pitiful, why do you still target him?"
"Go to the guest room tonight and sleep. I don't want to bother with you anymore."
Before Huo Juncheng could react to what was happening, he was locked outside the door. It seemed that he would have to sleep outside tonight because of that kid.
He had to catch that kid's handle as soon as possible and not let him continue to do evil here, especially since he had stolen Lin Yilan's attention.
Huo Juncheng walked into the guest room with the quilt in his arms. When he passed by Chen Jie's room, he suddenly heard the dog's groaning, but the sound soon died down.
Huo Juncheng remembered that Lin Yilan had just said that she bought a Samoyed for Chen Jie, so he didn't pay much attention to it and continued walking towards the guest room.
In the room, the young man stared at the door with vicious eyes, and one hand was tightly covering the dog's mouth to prevent it from barking.
