Lu Ye was enjoying himself when he was startled by the sound made by Meng Ji.
He stopped quickly and went downstairs to get her a glass of warm water.
When passing by the living room, the clock on the wall already showed that it was five o'clock in the morning.
He lost control again tonight.
When he walked upstairs, Meng Ji's face was stained with tears. He lay on the edge of the bathtub and closed his eyes, sleeping soundly.
The glass of water in Lu Ye's hand didn't matter if it was given to her, or if it wasn't given to her.
Meng Ji's round and round shoulders were exposed, and the heat in the bathroom lingered.
Lu Ye felt a rush of heat, his deep eyes changed again and again, and then he looked at Meng Ji, took a deep breath, raised his head and drank the glass of warm water in one breath.
The throat rolled up and down.
He placed the empty water glass on the sink, and the glass made a crisp sound against the countertop.
Lu Ye frowned.
He should have received cold water just now, but warm water couldn't lower his body temperature at all.
Now this feeling is neither up nor down, so uncomfortable.
But she couldn't bear to wake up Meng Ji, she was too tired.
It seemed that he was a little cold, and Meng Ji hummed and curled up into a small ball.
Seeing that she was about to fall into the bathtub, Lu Ye quickly stepped forward and picked her up.
He wiped Meng Ji clean as if resigned to his fate, and gently carried her to the bed.
He thoughtfully covered Meng Ji with the quilt, and Lu Ye leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.
He turned around and got a new bath towel and walked into the bathroom.
Soon, the sound of water running sounded in the bathroom again.
——
The next day, Meng Ji was licked awake by something.
Her skin outside the quilt was licked all over by something wet.
Meng Ji frowned. In her dream, she was chased by a monster-like thing.
No matter how hard she tried to hide, she couldn't escape, and the feeling of wetness enveloped her tightly.
Meng Ji woke up from her dream. When she opened her eyes, the moist feeling came again.
This time it came from under her feet, as if something furry was rubbing against her feet.
Meng Ji exclaimed in fright.
He kicked his feet out and then retracted his feet.
"Woof——"
Something seemed to fly out. Meng Ji quickly got up and took a look. He saw a small wolf dog lying on the ground, whining in aggrieved manner.
With wet eyes, he looked at her accusingly.
So it was this little thing that was licking itself just now?
Meng Ji was so cute by its fluffy and plump appearance.
He quickly put on his clothes, then crawled out of bed and picked up the little pitiful person on the ground.
Meng Ji has always liked puppies.
She even feels that the world cannot live without puppies.
The little wolfdog in Meng Ji's arms was well raised and very voluptuous. It must have been weaned not long ago. The little thing huddled in Meng Ji's arms and moaned.
Meng Ji couldn't help it anymore and kissed its head.
No idea where this dog came from.
Lu Ye ran in from outside, breathing a little quickly.
Just now he heard Meng Ji's scream downstairs, and he was so frightened that he quickly came up to see, thinking something had happened to Meng Ji.
As a result, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Meng Ji with his bare feet on the floor and a disheveled man holding the dog.
Lu Ye breathed a sigh of relief.
"Did you buy it?" Meng Ji's eyes were filled with stars.
Before he could express his criticism, Meng Ji walked up to him with the little wolfdog in his arms.
Lu Ye bent down and helped Meng Ji put on his slippers.
Her habit of barefooting is really not good. Fortunately, there is floor heating in the room.
"Lu Ye, was this dog given to me?"
Lu Ye stared at the dog crawling around in his arms. Lu Ye narrowed his eyes in displeasure.
Still replied, "Well, I just bought it this morning."
It was Shen Jing's idea.
"Wanwan, we can treat it as our child." Lu Ye said according to the words taught by Shen Jing.
Shen Jing said that to cultivate a shared sense of responsibility between the two of them, this dog is the best choice.
Meng Ji stared, "Lu Ye, what are you talking about? There is no way my child will look like this."
Lu Ye was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile, "Yes, yes, I didn't think carefully."
But he was scolding Shen Jing in his heart, and he didn't know if this method would work.
"Thank you, I like it very much." Meng Ji said sincerely while holding the dog in circles.
She has wanted to keep a dog since she was a child, but her stepmother and Jiang Xicheng are extremely sensitive to hair, and in severe cases can suffer from respiratory failure.
So her idea was shelved.
Later, there was no chance to implement it again.
She didn't expect Lu Ye to give her this gift.
Lu Ye had given her a whole wall of jewelry and clothes before, but none of them were as favored as this dog.
Lu Ye saw the genuine smile on her face, and his eyes softened a little, "As long as you like it."
"Did it have a name?" Meng Ji raised his head and asked.
Lu Ye shook his head.
Then Meng Ji lifted the dog up again. Lu Ye didn't understand why, so Meng Ji explained to him, "Let me see if it's a boy or a girl."
Lu Ye nodded, it was a bitch, he would not buy a male puppy.
There can only be one male in this family, and male dogs are not allowed either.
Then he heard Meng Ji say, "I can't tell, it's too small."
Meng Ji walked out of the room alone with the dog in his arms, "Are you hungry? I'll find food for you."
The corridor was filled with her and the dog's grunts.
She seemed to be naming the dog. "Wangcai, Gou Sheng, Lai Fu, Cui Hua, Ti Niu...you choose one?"
The dog must have been moving around in her arms. Lu Ye could only hear Meng Ji saying, "If it moves again, I'll ask the 'fascist' upstairs to throw you away."
The dog's voice became smaller, "So you're also afraid of him?"
Meng Ji's voice gradually disappeared. Lu Ye, who had been left out, stared alone in the room. He could not even see Meng Ji's back now.
She and the dog are now a team, one person and one dog are a united front.
Lu Ye himself was wondering whether bringing the dog back was a good thing or a bad thing.
If I had known better, I wouldn't have brought this little beast back with me.
It was all due to Shen Jing's crooked idea. He said that Meng Ji was going to participate in a variety show, and he was afraid that she would not want to go home after being out for a long time.
So I had to make something that Meng Ji loved and put it at home.
He still remembered the way Shen Jing looked at him in the morning. Shen Jing looked him up and down and shook his head.
His tone was disgusting, "You are not her beloved. Meng Ji doesn't want to go home after going to a variety show. She will only feel happy to have escaped from you."
Shen Jing knew how to win his heart.
But he was telling the truth.
The two thought about it in the office, and finally Shen Jing decided to buy the dog.
Shen Jing: You can let your children raise them together, and you will have a sense of responsibility.
Lu Ye: There is no way my child is a dog.
Shen Jing: It’s just pretending, as long as the emotions are in place.
Lu Ye: I don’t have this sense of belief.
Shen Jing: Then do you want Meng Ji to go home often from participating in variety shows?
Lu Ye: I think so.
Shen Jing: Do you want Meng Ji to never forget you?
Lu Ye: I think so.
Shen Jing: Do you want to have a connection with Meng Ji?
Lu Ye: I think so.
Shen Jing: This dog can help you, whether you buy it or not.
Lu Ye: Buy it!
