Chapter 23
It’s neither too late nor too early now.
Some employees have already started their day's work in the house. Some are responsible for cleaning, some are preparing breakfast in the kitchen, and some are watering the yard. Everyone is doing their work in an orderly manner.
Xiao Zhou was placing a vase and preparing to put tulips in it when someone suddenly bumped into him and a scream rang in his ears: "Ahhhhhhh——"
Xiao Zhou's hand shook, the bouquet fell, the vase knocked over, the cleaning lady threw away the rag, Wang Bin, who was passing by the living room, turned around and ran back to the kitchen. The other employees huddled together and trembled. Chen Yuan, who was about to step onto the first floor, withdrew his foot.
Because a sturdy Tibetan Mastiff rushed past them at lightning speed.
“It, it, it, it… How did it get out!” The female employee screamed, pulling Xiao Zhou’s sleeve and shaking it, “It got out! Will it bite someone? What should I do!”
"I don't know even if you ask me," Xiao Zhou was also heartbroken.
Tibetan Mastiff, that’s a Tibetan Mastiff!
No matter how gentle a person is, he may bite you unexpectedly!
Song Xingqi rushed through the living room, through the entrance door, and into the front yard.
"Quick..." Chen Yuan pointed at the direction where Song Xingqi ran away, but he couldn't finish his words. The Tibetan Mastiff was only gentle to the boss, and no one except the boss had the courage to stop him. As soon as the word "quick" fell, the gardener in the front yard threw away the water pipe, ran in with a pale face, and was a little angry: "Why didn't you notify me before letting it out? I have old people and young children to take care of. My whole family depends on me. I am the pillar of the family. I can't fall!!!"
Chen Yuan silently put down his finger: "......"
Fortunately, the Tibetan Mastiff did not attack anyone, so everyone gathered together and talked to each other.
"Is it crazy?"
"Who let it out?"
"Should we let the boss out too? No, call him out!"
......
While watching here, Song Xingqi had already arrived at the iron gate. He didn't want to escape. Even if he did, he would be caught by the police on the street in his current state. So what he had to do was to gain more trust and love from Fu Chen, so as to gain more freedom.
So, he came to pick up the newspaper!
Fu Chen reads the newspaper and drinks tea every morning, retaining the paper reading method, which is a habit he acquired when he was a child around Fu Chengye.
There were two newspapers, one was "Xinhai Daily" and the other was "Daily Finance". The two newspapers were crumpled together and stuck in the gap of the hollow iron work of the iron gate. He pounced on the gate, grabbed the newspaper and ran back.
Everyone in the house panicked again.
"Why isn't it strolling on the lawn?"
"Looks like you're going back to the house?"
"Here it comes, it's back!"
"Quick, close the door!"
Seeing the door of the house closed, Song Xingqi braked in time. He knew there was another door in the back kitchen, so he turned around and went around to the side of the villa. Everyone in the kitchen fled into the living room in panic, and everyone was thrown to the ground.
Song Zhouxing walked through them and went straight upstairs.
No one knew what he was going to do, only Chen Yuan vaguely guessed it, with surprise in his eyes.
These days, dogs are starting to compete with people for jobs.
Song Xingqi was very familiar with Fu Chen's bedroom. He grabbed the doorknob and rushed in. Without waiting for Fu Chen to wake up, he pounced on his chest with his front paws.
The man was caught off guard, groaned, and his brows were twisted into knots.
"Fu Chen, get up!"
As soon as he spoke, the newspaper fell and hit Fu Chen in the face.
Fu Chen's eyes went dark, and he felt as if he had been slapped in the face early in the morning.
"Wake up, get up, Fu Chen is up!" Running made Song Zhouyi excited. Fu Chen took a deep breath and pushed his claws away. Song Zhouyi pulled out his claws and stepped on the man's chest again, swinging his tail rhythmically. "Wake up, Fu Chen."
"You really have no idea of your own importance," Fu Chen was good-tempered and did not get angry. He sat up and stroked the furry head.
Chen Yuan knocked on the open bedroom door and stood at the door to report what had just happened. Although the dog had taken over his job, he had to praise his boss's dog whenever possible and was never vague: "Boss Fu, I don't know how it broke its chain and ran out in a hurry. I thought it was going crazy, but I didn't expect it was going to get the newspaper for you. It's really smart."
Song Xingqi was touched, and Chen Yuan was his mouthpiece: "That's it."
Fu Chen picked up the newspaper on the bed. It was the latest date. This gave him a new understanding of the IQ of Tibetan Mastiffs. Not only can they understand human language, but they can also take the initiative to do things. He rubbed Song Xingqi's fur with his palms twice: "Good dog, really a good dog." He couldn't help but praise him twice.
It's a must! Song Zhouxing came forward and licked Fu Chen's face continuously.
The man smiled faintly.
Chen Yuan asked: "Mr. Fu, do you want to tie it up again now?"
Speaking of tying him up, Song Xingqi became anxious again. He immediately backed away from the bed, all the way to the corner, and kept yelling.
Even though he didn't understand, it seemed that he knew Song Xingqi didn't want to be tied up, so Fu Chen said, "No need, he's been tied up all night, it's time to let him relax."
"Then I'll go downstairs and prepare breakfast." Chen Yuan closed the door consciously.
"Woof woof!" Song Xingqi roared twice to express his gratitude. He picked up the newspaper again and happily put it on Fu Chen's face. "Hurry up and read the newspaper. It's fresh out of the oven. If you don't read it now, it will get cold."
Fu Chen turned his head and took the newspaper away: "Do you want me to read the newspaper, or do you want to poke my eyes out?"
Although he said this, his tone was very gentle.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it," Song Zhouqi said. He just wanted to read the news, especially to know what happened at school, but it was difficult to turn the pages with his paws and the newspaper would easily be torn.
"Play by yourself first, I'll wash up," said Fu Chen.
Well! Song Zhouqi is very obedient.
He walked to the window to look at the scenery. There was a large open-air terrace outside the bedroom, with a sofa and a coffee table. He scratched with his claws a few times, but couldn't open it or get out. He had to go back to the middle of the bedroom, chased his tail around twice, and then lay down. In front of him was the bathroom. He could see Fu Chen standing in front of the sink shaving. After washing up, the man walked into the cloakroom and threw his bathrobe into the clothes basket, revealing his tall figure wearing only boxer briefs. The physiological phenomenon of getting up early was obvious and huge.
Song Xingqi lowered his head in embarrassment, his nails scratching the carpet under his claws. He dared only stare at the ground, not looking at anything inappropriate.
"Fu Chen, are you okay?" he asked timidly.
"Let's go have breakfast," Fu Chen walked out of the cloakroom.
Song Xingqi stood up and followed, his chain still around his neck, dragging on the ground. Fu Chen picked up one end of the chain and led him downstairs.
The moment the Tibetan Mastiff appeared at the stairs, everyone's eyes were focused on them. When they heard Assistant Chen say that the Tibetan Mastiff was going to deliver newspapers to the boss, they didn't quite believe it. They had only seen pet dogs in training obey orders, but had never seen one break the chain and take newspapers on its own. More importantly, they got a clear message from Song Xingqi who was wagging his tail: the Tibetan Mastiff was not scolded for waking up the boss so early in the morning, but should be praised instead.
Look how happily its tail is wagging!
There is no doubt that the boss loves it!
Xiao Zhou exchanged glances with Chen Yuan and confirmed it without a doubt, then looked at Wang Bin. Wang Bin looked puzzled: What are you talking about?
Message delivery failed.
Today Fu Chen had breakfast outdoors so that Song Xingqi could play on the lawn for a while longer.
Song Zhou ran back and threw himself on Fu Chen's lap, his head buried under the man's arm. Fu Chen straightened the newspaper, and Song Zhou read it together. Today's "Xinhai Daily" published the latest situation of Qingyun High School. The students have been transferred to the temporary campus, and the classes have been resumed. As for the compensation for the students' injuries, the school is still actively negotiating, and there is no more compensation.
"Woo..." Song Xingqi felt a little depressed and rested her head on Fu Chen's legs.
Fu Chen looked at him, picked up a biscuit and fed him.
Song Xingqi licked it and suddenly saw a swallow landing not far away. An idea suddenly occurred to him. He picked up the biscuit and ran towards the swallow. Before he got close, the swallow flapped its wings and flew away.
Song Xingqi put down the biscuits and shouted to the sky: "Come back, I have delicious food, I have biscuits, I will give you biscuits, and I won't pounce on you, really! Don't worry!"
The swallows lingered in the sky, not flying away.
"Look into my sincere eyes, I swear to you that I am a vegetarian dog," Song Zhou Xing did not blink when he lied.
"You can come every day in the future. I can provide food and accommodation!" He started to make big promises.
Sure enough, the bird's brain was not enough. The swallow flew slowly and low, stopped not far from Song Zhouxing, tilted its head to examine the big dog in front of it, and then tried to approach step by step. Song Zhouxing stepped back and continued: "I don't know how to catch birds. I have a very kind heart."
"Then why do you want to eat my parents?" Yan Zi asked.
“..........”
It turned out to be an old acquaintance.
"Well... um... the me before was not me. That was another soul. The me now is me. The soul in the shell is different now, but the me now can apologize to you on behalf of the me before, because in terms of the body, it is indeed me."
Swallow brainstormed: “?”
It seemed that he was confused. Song Xingqi said sorry and got to the point: "I brought you the cookies, please eat them."
The swallow jumped in front of the biscuit, lowered its head to peck at it, and quickly looked up: "It's not tasty."
"Not tasty? Wait a minute!"
Song Xingqi ran back. Fu Chen noticed a black shadow running towards him from the corner of his eye. He stretched out his hand while reading the newspaper. As long as he stretched out his hand, his Xingqi would actively rub into his palm. Then, Song Xingqi bypassed Fu Chen's palm, pounced on the table, picked up the small bread on the plate, and returned in the direction of Yan Zi.
The man's palm is still in the air...
Fu Chen had no intention of reading the newspaper anymore and looked into the distance.
Song Zhouqi put down the bread and said, "I know birds love to eat bugs, so you must have heard of mealworms. This is bread. Bread is similar to mealworms. Try it."
Swallow pecked a few times, and then his little brain came to his senses: "Do you have something to ask of me?"
"Yes," Song Zhouqi said, "Can you do me a favor?"
Yan Zi asked: "What help?"
Song Xingqi said hurriedly: "Help me observe the road sections outside. Do you know what a road section is? It is the name of the road. Human streets have names, such as Jiangning Road, Shuiyue Road, Huaiting Road in the city... But you don't need to remember so much, you just need to help me understand which roads are outside this big house."
Once he knows the specific route and finds the right opportunity, he will go home to take a look, no matter how far it is.
Swallow began to think...
After a long time, I was thinking about it alone.
Song Xingqi changed his approach and said, "Do you know what it means to call a taxi?"
Yan Zi nodded: "I know."
Song Xingqi continued, "There is a kind of vehicle, called a bus. It is a big iron box that can hold many people. This big iron box can talk. Please help me find a big iron box that will pass by nearby and listen to what it says. Tell me what it says."
Learning how to speak from the big iron box, Yan Zi understood: "I know this."
