Chapter 66
The banquet at the manor went smoothly. The cocktail parties, concerts, food, games over the past few days... made all the guests reveal their hedonistic side and started to speak without reservation.
A small auction was being held in a hall somewhere in the manor.
Part of the collection was collected by Fu Zhan himself, and part of it was obtained from his elder and second brothers. It was nominally an auction, but in reality it was a gift to those who were tricked into doing something sweet.
Sweet first, bitter later.
Fu Zhan was backstage and took a fancy to a rare gemstone necklace.
The first thing that came to my mind when I saw the necklace was to give it to his little fur ball.
Before coming to the manor, he had thought it through. Feelings across species were too strange and unrealistic, and that the little fur ball had no feelings for him, so he had to calm his mind. But as the days passed, not only did his mind not calm down, but he wanted to go back and hug the little fur ball more and more.
One thing is more certain.
There were other changes in his liking for the little furball.
"Fourth Young Master, you have been looking at this necklace for a long time. Is there any problem?" asked the auctioneer.
"Don't shoot it anymore, just leave it here." Fu Zhan said.
"Ah?" The auctioneer was surprised, "But this necklace is already on the auction list."
"Then take it off the list."
"OK."
The fourth young master was determined to stay, so the auctioneer dared not object.
Zhao Chengyi said casually: "Fu Zhan, you don't have a girl you like, so what do you want a necklace for?"
Wei Ze and Li Xin each held a glass of wine, drinking and joking with each other.
Before Fu Zhan could answer, he received a call. Zhao Wei stammered on the phone: "Four Four Four Four Young Master... Little Little Fur Ball is gone."
Fu Zhan's heart trembled: "What do you mean by disappeared?"
Since he had already called, Zhao Wei could only tell the truth: "I went out to take out the trash at noon, and it was gone when I came back. I thought it ran away to play nearby and would come back, so I kept waiting. I didn't see it until after 2pm, so I called the police, but they still haven't found it yet..."
"It was lost at noon, and you didn't tell me until it was dark?"
The tone was not angry, but rather light. However, it was so light that it seemed like the thinnest blade, so sharp that it would draw blood with just one touch.
"Catch, follow, find!" he said word by word.
Fu Zhan left with big strides.
Zhao Chengyi and others chased after him: "Fu Zhan, where are you going? Are you leaving now?"
"Little Maotuan is missing. I want to go back and find her," Fu Zhan said without stopping.
Wei Ze: "What about the wine party?"
Fu Zhan: "It's over tonight, you guys help me finish it."
Wei Ze: “Okay.”
Fu Zhan walked through the cocktail party hall. People, drunk or sober, could see the anxious look on his face. After asking around, they learned that he left in a hurry because the puppy of the fourth young master Fu was missing. Fu Zhan's absurdity was confirmed once again, and the "purpose" of holding such a large and extravagant cocktail party became clearer.
Isn’t it just for fun?
The sports car drove out of the manor, and the unrelenting rain hit the windows.
Fu Zhan felt very depressed and regretful.
If he had known earlier, he should have brought the little fur ball with him and tied it to his side at all times.
Why should I calm down? I can't calm down at all.
What's wrong with interspecies love?
Fu Zhan loves whenever he wants!
What's wrong!
boom--
The sports car drove across the road, and its wheels rolled over the puddle, splashing water nearly two meters high.
On the way, Zhao Wei had sent the road surveillance footage obtained after calling the police to Fu Zhan. The car phone made outgoing calls one after another. Fu Zhan's contacts helped to search the streets and alleys, and photos of the little fur ball were sent to a group of people, one for each person.
Whenever he came to a blind spot on the street, Fu Zhan would get out of the car to look for it. After two or three times, the rain soaked him to the bone.
But he was not worried about himself. He was used to taking cold showers, so a little rain would be nothing. He was more worried about the little ball of fur.
Such a small puppy will get sick and catch a cold if it is exposed to the rain for a long time, and the illness may cost the puppy its life.
"Little fur ball——"
Fu Zhan stood under the dim street lights and tried his best to shout at the people around him.
Passersby looked at the man in the rain with surprise and strange eyes.
Fu Zhan was extremely anxious, and bloodshot appeared in his eyes.
What should I do if I can’t find the little fur ball from now on?
......
Jiang Ling was no longer under the original tree.
Three hours ago, he was still shivering in the rain. Although it was hot during the day, if the cold rain washed over him for too long, his body would become numb as if he had fallen into the bitter winter.
Jiang Ling was thinking about something in a daze.
I don’t know when the rain will stop, and I don’t know if I can make it through it…
If I died, my mother and brother wouldn't be sad a second time because they wouldn't know, and he would be relieved too.
And Fu Zhan...
In a daze, the face that always smiled with a bit of nonchalance and frivolity appeared before my eyes.
Although he had not been with Fu Zhan for a long time, he was not without feelings for him. He would feel uncomfortable thinking that this man would be anxious. Fortunately, he died outside and no one could see him, which would make him less sad. After a while, Fu Zhan would raise a cute Bichon Frise.
Snap, Snap...
Something was stepping on the water, making a slight sound, and was approaching him.
Jiang Ling looked up with encouragement.
Before I could see clearly, he had been picked up.
One-eyed Dragon and Little White were looking for food nearby. Because it was raining, they were running around to avoid the rain. They accidentally found a miserable white puppy curled up under a big tree on the street.
When the rain subsided a little, they took turns carrying Jiang Ling back to the stray dog base.
Xiaobai and One-Eyed Dragon sat down next to Jiang Ling, one on each side, to keep him warm.
Their base was in a dilapidated warehouse of a few square meters abandoned by an express delivery station. Because the employees of the express delivery station did not drive them away and gave them food every now and then, they lived here for a long time.
When Jiang Ling woke up, it was just daybreak.
It's very noisy in my ears.
"It's mine!"
"I saw it first, so it should belong to me!"
“One-eyed dragon, Xiaobai, stop arguing. You can fight for it,” Wangcai stood between them, trying to give them some advice.
Xiaohu walked up to Jiang Ling and sniffed it. He was very shocked: "Oh my god, it's a male!"
Xiao Bai didn't mind: "We have a limited supply of stray dogs. It doesn't matter if they are male or female. The main thing is that they look good."
One-eyed dragon: “I think so too.”
Jiang Ling looked at the four stray dogs in front of him and understood from their words that these stray dogs were fighting for him. When he was a human, he was used to many boys in school vying for him, but as a puppy he couldn't get used to being fought over by other dogs.
"But I don't think it looks good," said Tiger.
Xiaobai glared at Xiaohu with a look that said "you are so ignorant" and said, "It's a Bichon Frise. It will look good when its fur dries. It is indeed a little ugly now."
Xiaohu: “You know so much.”
Jiang Ling: “…”
Jiang Ling tried to stand up, but his swollen paws hurt when they touched the ground.
"It's awake!" Wangcai was the first to discover it.
The four dogs gathered around and stared at Jiang Ling, asking him how he was doing.
"My paw is swollen," he added weakly, "Thank you for saving me."
Xiao Bai said: "You need to recover from your injuries."
One-eyed dragon: "It would be best if we could go to the hospital."
Xiaohu: "But we stray dogs can't go to the hospital. It costs money."
Wangcai: "If its claws don't get better, it will be hard for it to live with us, and it will die soon."
Not only were his paws swollen and painful, but Jiang Ling also felt extremely cold. Even though it had stopped raining and he was staying in a dry place, he couldn't stop his body from shaking. It was probably because the Bichon Frise was too weak to have problems easily. From what he felt, if he didn't seek medical treatment in time, he would be very close to death.
After a night's rest and regaining some strength, he stood up shakily.
Xiaobai advised: "You should take a rest and don't leave. We can take care of you together."
One-eyed dragon: "Do you mean to let Wangcai and Xiaohu join the fight?"
Xiaobai: "What are you talking about? I just said take care of you!"
After taking two steps, Jiang Ling fell to the ground. His swollen paws felt excruciating pain. He could only make whining sounds subconsciously. His other intact paws were powerless in the air. The voices of the stray dogs began to become distant...
.......
Several cars were parked along the nearby road.
Fu Zhan got out of the car urgently and directed people to search in every corner.
He did not stop that night. He stood at the door of an express delivery station. After hearing the barking of several stray dogs, he followed the sound and found Jiang Ling lying weakly among several stray dogs.
Suddenly, blood seemed to burst out of Fu Zhan's eyes.
"Little fur ball!!!"
The little white guys instinctively stepped back.
Fu Zhan squatted down, stretched out his hands, and didn't know from which angle to hug his puppy.
He was afraid of hurting Jiang Ling from any angle.
"Let's go to the hospital, right away!" The man's lips lost their color.
Seeing Jiang Ling shivering, Fu Zhan took off his clothes that were originally soaked and dried by his body temperature after searching for a whole night, wrapped Jiang Ling very carefully, held her in his arms with the most gentle movements, and ran urgently in the direction where he parked his car.
Four stray dogs were chasing after him.
“Woof woof woof! Woof!”
“Woof woof!”
"Will you return it once it's healed?"
"We picked it up first, you can't lose your moral integrity!"
"Remember to return it to us!"
The dog's running was no match for the four wheels, and the sports car disappeared with a bang.
After arriving at the hospital, the doctor first treated Jiang Ling's hypothermia by drying his fur inside and out. Even so, Fu Zhan still had to wrap him up with clothes, then checked him, treated his wounds, and gave him an IV. The man accompanied him throughout the whole process and would not let Jiang Ling out of his sight for even a second.
After a while of drip input, Jiang Ling slowly opened his eyes.
"Little fur ball."
Fu Zhan's voice was hoarse, and Jiang Ling couldn't recognize who it was for a moment, but the breath was very familiar, so he looked up at the other person.
Fu Zhan was also in a miserable state at this moment. He did not look like a handsome young man at all. His hair, beaten by wind and rain, was drooping, his hair on his forehead was scattered, and his eyes were full of red veins.
"Fu Zhan..." Jiang Ling barked weakly.
"Don't move, you're on an IV drip." Regardless of whether Jiang Ling was dirty or not, Fu Zhan couldn't help but lower his head and kiss his forehead, "Don't get angry and run away from home again, okay?"
That night, he kept recalling the scene in his mind where Jiang Ling was almost run over under his wheels. He was afraid that such an incident would happen again, or that some other accident would occur.
He was afraid that his little ball of fur would be gone.
I also experienced what it means to be extremely anxious.
"Little fur ball, this is all my fault. I shouldn't have left you with me. From now on, no matter where I go, I'll take you with me if you want to go with me. If you don't allow me to go out, I won't go out even if you kill me."
"Little fur ball, forgive me and stop being angry?"
The man looked bad.
Jiang Ling was slightly stunned, remembering that they were still in a cold war before. No wonder Fu Zhan misunderstood that he ran away from home because he was angry.
But when he was dying, he had put aside his little protests and inner imbalance, licked Fu Zhan's fingers with his tongue, and never thought of running away from home. Even if he wanted to leave, after being together for such a long time, he would leave a message to say goodbye.
But he just didn't understand.
What happened to Fu Zhan?
Why are all my attempts to act cute, look pitiful, and protest ineffective?
Does Fu Zhan no longer like small animals?
But looking at Fu Zhan's expression, he is obviously very anxious. He is in such a mess and doesn't care about his image just to find him.
If you care so much about him, why don't you want to find him a job as soon as possible?
"This time I went out to a manor at home, and I also had something to do. I thought about taking you with me before, but..." Fu Zhan's eyes were red, and he continued, "There's something wrong with my mind."
Jiang Ling had a question mark in his head: "What's the problem?"
"Cough," Fu Zhan coughed lightly.
He had been to places of entertainment for a long time and was nicknamed the Fourth Young Master of Romance. He was a well-known playboy in Xinhai City, but he became shy when he really liked someone.
"I," Fu Zhan stared at Jiang Ling seriously, combing the hair on Jiang Ling's head with his fingers, and said, "I like you."
Jiang Ling: “?”
Fu Zhan said confidently: "It means the kind of love that one feels."
Jiang Ling: ""
A doctor passed by them and suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. He looked at the man, then at the miserable puppy in his arms.
Very novel, I'll listen to it again.
The doctor stopped by again.
Fu Zhan continued, "Before, you licked another man on the set and even hugged his neck and refused to let go. I felt so jealous. I wanted to kick that man away. The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. He didn't give you anything. Why were you so intimate with him? Think about how you treat me. Are you willing to act like a spoiled child to me only when I give you work? I'm jealous."
The man was jealous and felt uncomfortable, so he refused to follow Jiang Ling's wishes.
Jiang Ling understood.
But my brain is still a little bit down.
From the very beginning, he wanted to capture this man, but that was to capture the other person's love for pets.
It's not love!!
After all, I am a puppy, how can I fall in love?
"Little fur ball, I don't mind crossing species. I also know that you don't like me, but feelings can be cultivated slowly, what do you think?"
Fu Zhan lowered his head and kissed his ear again.
The doctor stumbled away, tripping over his left foot.
In order for Jiang Ling to find a place to rest as soon as possible, Fu Zhan followed the principle of proximity and arrived at his own group within three minutes after Jiang Ling finished the drip. His office had a lounge, a bed and a quilt.
And I bought a set of literacy cards along the way.
Fu Zhan took some food from his eldest brother's office and fed it to Jiang Ling mouthful by mouthful with his own hands.
At the same time, he waited anxiously for Jiang Ling's reply.
But he didn't know that Jiang Ling was a sea king, and he would never refuse such a rich, handsome and powerful boyfriend.
But one thing needs to be made clear.
Jiang Ling licked his lips, and with Fu Zhan's support, he hopped on his hind legs to pick up the literacy cards: [You don't mind that I'm a man?]
Fu Zhan said: "Of course I don't mind."
The little fur ball just assumed himself to be a boy because he was dressed as a little male dog. Why would he mind?
"Okay," Jiang Ling replied, holding the card in his mouth, [No need to cultivate slowly, you will be my boyfriend from now on.]
Fu Zhan: “.”
Surprisingly....it went so smoothly....
Outside the office door.
Song Xingqi was wandering around. He saw Fu Zhan coming to the office to eat something and knew that Bichon Frise was inside. Zijie suspected that Bichon Frise was Jiang Ling, so he came to find out.
The claws scratched the door panel in the air.
He asked in a whisper: "Jiang Ling, is that you?"
