"You know it's heavy, but you still carry it."
Gu Huaiye subtly raised his hand holding the bag so that she couldn't reach it. "Hurry up and get in the car. My car won't wait for anyone."
His tone was full of disdain, but his pace deliberately slowed down.
"My brother was carrying it for me before." Xia Zhining smiled and saw another different luxury car in front of her. She was going to compete with these rich people!
Changing cars is like changing clothes.
As soon as Xia Zhining got into the back seat, she was stunned by the spaciousness of the car.
"Where's Dark Star?" she asked quietly, her eyes scanning the back row.
The majestic wolfhound was curled up in the middle of the seat.
His limbs twitched slightly, and a whimper like that of a small animal escaped from his throat.
"I had a nightmare...I dreamt of the battlefield again..."
Xia Zhining immediately sat down beside it and gently massaged the back of its ears with her fingertips. "Don't be afraid, Anxing. Principal Xia is here."
When the wolfhound heard her voice, it suddenly opened its wet eyes, and the whole dog jumped up the moment it recognized her.
[Sister Xiaoxia!]
It jumped happily into her arms, and its big tail swept the folder on the center console, sending dog hair flying everywhere.
Gu Huaiye tutted in disdain, and plucked a silver-gray dog hair from Xia Zhining's hair with his slender fingers. "Why do you get so upset when I see you?"
He lowered his eyes to look at An Xing, who had calmed down in Xia Zhining's arms. "What kind of magic potion did you give it?"
“This is the sense of security that comes from top veterinarians!”
Xia Zhining rubbed Anxing's chin proudly. Anxing stretched out his paws in pleasure. "I told you to move to the staff dormitory. It will be more convenient for treatment and save a lot of money."
"He insists on acting like a CEO."
Gu Huaiye sneered, "A four-square-meter dormitory?" He loosened his tie with his fingers, "I have more storage space for my suits than this."
Of course, it’s not just a matter of living in a small place.
The thought of having to move into Xia Zhining's territory with Anxing, and the medical expenses being the same as before, starting at tens of millions, made him inexplicably irritated.
The original agreement signed was for her to be on call 24 hours a day, but now he has to go to her house to seek medical treatment.
Gu Huaiye had never signed such a pathetic contract in his life.
It has always been others who have come to him to sign contracts worth a fortune, so how could he be the first to rush to give money to others?
"Move to our campus. You'll sleep better at night and treatment will be more convenient."
Xia Zhining shook her finger, her eyes sparkling. "The forest oxygen bar has fresh air and is close to your company. The commute only takes ten minutes."
She slumped in the leather chair, counting on her fingers: "The rent is 100,000, plus water, electricity, sanitation, property management fees, garbage disposal fees..." After a pause, she concluded with a smile, "I'll charge you 150,000 a month. That's a good deal, right?"
Gu Huaiye glanced at her and sneered: "I am rich, but I am not a fool."
"But bringing Dark Star in is also part of the treatment!" Xia Zhining argued unconvincedly, "I've prepared all the treatment equipment recently. Bring it here quickly. I plan to..."
Xia Zhining's muttering became quieter and quieter, and her head suddenly tilted and fell directly into Anxing's fluffy hair.
Gu Huaiye turned his head abruptly, his tone hurried: "...Xia Zhining?"
He stared at her pale face, his fingertips subconsciously touching her nose. Her breathing was steady, and there was a soft snoring, but it made his heart skip a beat.
Scare him.
The lighter you are, the easier it is to fall asleep.
Gu Huaiye frowned and carefully checked Xia Zhining's pulse. He breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming that she was fine. His eyes fell on Xia Zhining's slender arms and sickly pale skin, fearing that she would be gone in the next second.
Xia Zhining was completely immersed in Anxing's fluffy silver-gray hair, and her cheeks were slightly bulged by the warm dog hair.
Dark Star's tail unconsciously wrapped around her waist, and her limbs, which had been twitching just now, were now stretched out steadily.
Gu Huaiye withdrew his hand, and his Adam's apple rolled slightly.
He grabbed the spare cashmere blanket from the back seat and roughly covered the man and the dog with it, but subconsciously softened his grip when he covered their shoulders.
"...two troublemakers."
