Su Jiu turned around in shock and disbelief. “Huh?”

“I thought you liked dogs?”

“Yes, but it’s so troublesome to have a dog.” Su Jiu was only teasing them. She hadn’t said anything about buying one.

“It’s no trouble,” Rong Si seriously replied. “I’ll be in charge of feeding it, bathing it, combing its fur, and picking up its shit. You just have to be in charge of taking the pictures.”

What?

He actually remembers my earlier words so clearly?

It seems that the little villain is attentive toward me.

Su Jiu felt sweet inside. “Big Brother, are you serious?”

“Of course! Pick one before I go back on my word.” Rong Si’s tone and expression were awkward. He looked adorable.

“That’s wonderful. Thank you!” Delighted, Su Jiu tiptoed and kissed him on the cheek before going in to choose the puppy.

The sudden kiss stunned Rong Si. He reached out and touched the place she had kissed him just now. It took him a while to recover.

Then, he couldn’t help but smile.

This reward is good. I like it.

Every puppy in the shop was cute. Su Jiu tried to pick one in a dilemma and could not decide which one to buy. In the end, she chose a small white Samoyed

This puppy was only two months old. It was furry, with big round eyes. When it stuck out its little tongue, it looked like it was smiling at her. No wonder this kind of dog was called the Smiling Angel.

After buying the puppy, Su Jiu held it lovingly and stroked its little head. “Big Brother, shall we give it a name? What do you think it should be called?”

Rong Si looked at the little Samoyed Su Jiu comfortably held in her arms and suddenly felt uncomfortable. He didn’t like her holding anything else, even a dog.

Apparently, he was more possessive of Little Jiu than he had realized.

Rong Si paused. “Let’s call it Little Jiu.”

Su Jiu was speechless.

To put my name on a dog. What is he trying to do?

“Why?” Su Jiu expressed her confusion.

Rong Si said matter-of-factly, “I’m interested in raising it and being nice to it only if it has your name.”

“…”

So that’s what he thinks.

Su Jiu found it funny. She thought for a moment. “Why don’t we call it Little While? We’ll have a long life. Big Brother, I hope we can have a long life too.”

She was embarrassed to say this.

Rong Si did not object. If that was what the name meant, he would accept it gladly.

***

After strolling outside for a long time, Su Jiu sent the driver away and took the bus back with Rong Si. She placed the small Samoyed on her lap and combed its fur. Suddenly, she thought of something and seriously looked at Rong Si. “Big Brother, let me ask you. I think the girl from before was called Zhong Ya. Is she still bothering you?”

Rong Si knew who she was talking about. He answered, “No.”

“Seriously?” Su Jiu pouted. “Why don’t I believe that? Would she really let you go so easily?”

“Regardless, I ignored her.”

“Even if you ignore her, she might still come after you.” Su Jiu looked sulky. “Big Brother, let me ask you. Do you think she’s pretty? I think she’s pretty…”

Rong Si didn’t want to answer such a question.

He wasn’t interested in any other girl. He wouldn’t even look at them. He didn’t know if they were pretty or not. Even if they were, in his opinion, they couldn’t compete with Little Jiu.
