In a daze, I just felt a wet and soft feeling on my face, and warm breaths kept blowing towards my face, accompanied by humming and whimpering sounds.
what?
I opened my eyes suddenly, and a big, reddish-brown, furry and dirty head appeared in front of me in an enlarged shape.
Sean?
I woke up instantly, thinking I was dreaming, and pinched my thigh.
pain!
When Sean saw me opening my eyes, he licked my face with his soft pink tongue, humming and thrusting into my arms.
It turns out it wasn't a dream, it couldn't be more real.
"Shane, how did you find this place?" I held Shaun's big head in my hands and asked.
Sean's eyes were as bright as obsidian. He whined at me twice and then turned towards the floor-to-ceiling window and whined twice.
When I saw the half-open floor-to-ceiling window, I remembered that I seemed to have forgotten to close the window before going to bed. By coincidence, Sean came to find me.
"You are so smart!" I hugged Sean's plush body and praised him while crying and laughing.
Sean also kept pushing into my arms, like a spoiled child.
The fur on its body is a little dirty, tangled in some places, and stained with mud and grass leaves. Its round body has obviously lost a little weight.
I stroked the hair on its back with some distress, and couldn't help but feel a little sore in my eyes.
Unexpectedly, Sean actually found this place. The courtyard door was locked and there was a ban on the courtyard wall. I don’t know how it entered the courtyard or how it entered my bedroom, but looking at its appearance
, the little guy obviously suffered a lot.
A little mythical beast actually made itself as dirty as a stray dog.
"Let me give you a bath!" I got up from the bed and took Sean to the bathroom.
Sean followed me obediently. During the bath, Sean allowed me to scrub his body without moving. His black eyes kept staring at me, and he would stick out his tongue to lick my face from time to time, like a well-behaved cat.
ha.
Sean's appearance was like a ray of sunshine in the darkness, which suddenly illuminated my heart that had sunk to the bottom of the valley. Even the days of being under house arrest by Qi Yue seemed to have become less difficult.
Early the next morning, Sean followed me downstairs. When Mrs. Chen saw Sean, she was so shocked that she suddenly opened her mouth.
"Hu, Hu, young lady, where did you get such a big dog?" Mrs. Chen asked me stutteringly, her hands shaking with excitement, and she almost spilled the soup in her hand.
Sean sat down at my feet and cockily turned his head away from looking at Mrs. Chen.
I smiled and comforted Mrs. Chen: "I will tell Qi Yue about Sean myself. Don't worry, I won't hurt you. Do you have raw beef? Please bring me some."
"Yes, there is raw beef, but I, Master Qi--" Mrs. Chen looked at Sean with fear, and then looked at me with some embarrassment.
"Ding ding ding..." I looked at Mrs. Chen with a troubled face, opened my mouth and was about to speak, when the phone in the living room suddenly rang.
Mrs. Chen hurried over and picked it up.
"Master Qi! Oh - okay - okay - okay -"
After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Chen looked at me and said with a bit of joy in her eyes: "Madam, it was Master Qi who called. He said that no matter how you got this dog in, I hope it won't happen next time."
If the same thing happens again, this time I will let you keep this dog so that it can be your companion."
After saying that, Mrs. Chen turned around and walked towards the kitchen, saying as she walked: "Young lady, please wait a moment, I will get you some raw beef."
It came so quickly!
I lowered my head and stroked Sean's head. It seemed that Qi Yue was monitoring me every minute. Ha, it was really hard for him.
Fortunately, he didn't recognize Sean's true identity and thought he was just a dog.
The mood that had just been slightly relieved by Sean's arrival early in the morning was completely ruined by Qi Yue's phone call.
Mrs. Chen quickly took out a small pot of raw beef from the stainless steel basin in the kitchen and gently placed it in front of Sean.
After Xiao En glanced at Mrs. Chen, he raised his little head high without even looking at the meat in the basin.
I patted Sean's head gently and whispered in Sean's ear: "Sister-in-law Chen is not a bad person. Eat quickly. You see you are losing weight from hunger."
Sean cupped my hand, stretched out his tongue and licked it, then lowered his head to smell the raw beef in the basin, picked up a piece, and chewed it.
Looking at Sean eating happily, the weight in my heart became lighter.
After casually eating some breakfast cooked by Mrs. Chen, I took Sean to the garden.
After looking around and confirming that there were no surveillance cameras around, I squatted in front of Sean, looked into its dark pupils and asked, "Sean, how did you get in? Can you take me to have a look?"
Sean tilted his big head and looked at me, as if he didn't quite understand what I said.
I repeated it.
Sean seemed to understand. He grabbed the ground with his two tiger paws, spun around twice, then raised his feet and ran towards the garden entrance.
After running a few steps, he stopped to see if I was following.
I followed Sean all the way to the garden gate. Sean stopped in front of the thick brass gate, raised his tiger claws and grabbed the iron door.
"Did you come in through the gate?" I was stunned and looked at Sean in disbelief.
Sean came over with a groan, bit my trouser leg and pulled me to the door, then raised his paw and scratched the door.
It was like asking me to open the door and go out.
I smiled bitterly, looked at Sean and said, "This door is locked, I can't get out."
Sean seemed a little anxious, biting my trouser leg, and then continued to scratch the brass door.
Is there something wrong with this door?
I stared at the brass door for a long time, but I couldn't see any gaps or holes for Sean to come in and out. Not only was the door locked, but the ground under the door was covered with thick marble, and even a hole was dug out.
It's impossible to do it even in the cave.
"Sean, let's go back to the house." I said a little disappointed and walked back.
"Ouch--" Sean looked at the tightly fitting brass door with some reluctance, then at me, and finally followed my feet towards the villa with his tail hanging down.
Just after walking a few steps, Sean suddenly jumped in front of me and looked at a flower tree not far away. The hair on his body stood up high. He let out a low growl in his throat and gently scratched the pebbles with his front paws.
On the ground, he looked as if he was facing a powerful enemy.
I followed Sean's gaze and looked at the flower tree. It was still the red and white camellia I saw the day before, and the tree was trembling slightly.
"Uncle Hao?" I took two steps closer and tentatively called out to the flower tree.
The flower tree swayed farther away, and after a while, a thin black figure emerged from under the flower tree. Who could it be if it wasn't Old Hao?
