Chapter 445 - The Aggressive Little Icy (2)
Chapter 445: The Aggressive Little Icy (2)
“Master, I’m sorry. I’m too useless,” Zheng En said.
“Silly boy! What do you intend to do with this matter?” the little old man asked with some heartache.
“I… It’s been fifteen years since this matter happened. It probably won’t be easy to find witnesses to prove what happened back then. In fact, I originally wanted to get rid of Sun Wei when I became stronger, but now…” Zheng En was a little at a loss. He wanted to clear his name, but unless Sun Wei confessed, the truth of the matter back then would probably only sink to the bottom of the sea. After all, Sun Wei was a very careful person. He had probably eliminated the people who worked for him back then long ago.
“It’s indeed not easy to find the witnesses from back then, so the best way is to get Sun Wei to confess. This will save us a lot of trouble,” Leng Ruoxue said after some thought.
“Get him to confess? That’s impossible!” the little old man said.
“How will we know if we don’t try? Moreover, I have a way to make him confess,” Leng Ruoxue said mysteriously.
“Lass, what idea do you have? Tell me about it.” Old Zao was really too curious.
“Haha, you’ll know when the time comes.” Leng Ruoxue kept them in suspense.
“Lass! Tell me! Otherwise, I won’t be able to sleep,” Old Zao pleaded pitifully.
“No!” Leng Ruoxue’s will was very firm.
After speaking, Leng Ruoxue dragged Freak back to her room.
In the room…
Freak hugged Leng Ruoxue’s waist and asked with some bitterness on his face, “Xue’er, don’t tell me you won’t even tell me!”
“Haha! I can tell you, but you can’t tell others!” Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile. Why does the resentful expression on Freak’s face make me want to bully him so much?
“Yes, yes.” Freak nodded repeatedly.
“Come closer.” Leng Ruoxue lowered Freak’s head and whispered her plan into his ear.
“Are you sure it will work?” Freak asked doubtfully.
“Yes.” Leng Ruoxue nodded slightly.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the room. Freak turned to open the door but found that it was actually the middle-aged man standing at the door. Alas! He was really like a lingering ghost!
“What do you want by following us?” Freak asked irritably, his face full of displeasure at being disturbed.
“I just want to see that puppy,” the middle-aged man said stubbornly, looking like he wouldn’t turn back until he saw the puppy!
Freak rolled his eyes and said speechlessly, “It’s just a dog. What’s there to see?”
“My grandson likes dogs very much. I heard that your dog is very likable, so I came to take a look so that I can also get him an identical one,” the middle-aged man said helplessly.
“Our Icy is unique!” Freak couldn’t help reminding. Icy was not a real dog, so how could there be an identical one in the world! It was only possible if he could get a qilin for his grandson! However, qilins were not cabbages that could be found just because you wanted.
“Yes, I know. Let me take a look. It won’t be a loss for you if I just take a look, right?” the middle-aged man said without giving up. Hmph! He decided that he wouldn’t leave if he didn’t see the puppy.
“Freak, let him in!” Leng Ruoxue, who had been listening in the room for a while, said helplessly. She really didn’t know what to do with this middle-aged man’s persistence!
“Alright! Come in!” Freak made way and let the middle-aged man in.
“Where’s the dog?” The middle-aged man looked for the puppy impatiently after entering the room.
Leng Ruoxue moved Icy out of the bracelet and put him on the bed.
“This is your puppy?” The middle-aged man looked at Icy, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, and couldn’t help being a little disappointed. This dog looked very ordinary! It was so small and not as mighty as the dogs he had found! He really couldn’t understand why his grandson liked this puppy so much.
“Yes! He’s called Icy,” Leng Ruoxue explained simply.
“What’s so good about this dog? Can he look after the house? Can he catch mice? Can he play with his master? Can he…” the middle-aged man asked non-stop. Leng Ruoxue was speechless with every question he asked!
After asking, the middle-aged man looked at Leng Ruoxue expectantly, waiting for her to answer his questions.
“Uh! Our Icy doesn’t know anything except eating and sleeping,” Leng Ruoxue said helplessly while wiping the cold sweat off her forehead. Our Icy is a qilin, so he doesn’t know anything that those dogs can do.
“Why do you keep him if he doesn’t know anything? Why don’t you sell him to me!” the middle-aged man said after some thought. Hmph! Doesn’t my grandson like this dog? Then I’ll buy this dog for him.
“I’m sorry. Little Icy is not for sale.” Leng Ruoxue was speechless. Is this middle-aged man mentally abnormal? Why are his thoughts so whimsical?
“I’m willing to pay a sky-high price,” the middle-aged man said resolutely.
“He’s not for sale,” Leng Ruoxue said firmly.
“Then how are you willing to sell this dog to me?” The middle-aged man refused to give up.
“I’ll say it one last time. Little Icy is not for sale. He’s priceless, and I won’t sell him for any amount of money,” Leng Ruoxue said without any room for negotiation.
“What if I insist on buying him?” The middle-aged man’s aura suddenly became a little unyielding.
“He’s not for sale,” Leng Ruoxue said impatiently. Why is this middle-aged man so stubborn? Doesn’t he understand what I’m saying?
“You’d better sell him to me. At least you can obtain some money that way. With this money, you can buy as many dogs as you want! But if you don’t sell him to me and force me, I will snatch him away,” the middle-aged man threatened with both soft and hard tactics.
“Oh! You can try. Little Icy, wake up! Someone’s here to snatch you,” Leng Ruoxue said gloatingly, waking Little Icy up.
