Stubborn Love of a Roguish Scion - Chapter 241
Chapter 241: Buying A Puppy Outfit
“It can’t be so easily killed, can it? I’ll let it acclimatize itself to the environment and then try to coax it into eating something.”
If this little thing continued yelping, they would both go crazy.
“Alright, now. Are you coming to the bar tonight?”
The other woman muttered softly, “This is the reason I’m calling you. I won’t be coming down for the time being.”
“Okay, I get it. I know you can’t wait to spend time alone with Young Master Mo. You don’t have to come over.”
“That’s not true. I’m not trying to do that.”
“Tsk!”
Red Bean started to whine again and inch its body along the sofa toward Yao Tiao.
“The barking sounds really familiar,” the protagonist commented.
“Familiar? You’re probably hallucinating. All dogs sound the same. Alright, I got to hang up now.”
“Okay, speak to you soon.”
Ye Erruo found the barking strangely familiar. Although it was true that all dogs sounded almost alike, the barking she had just heard seemed to be something more.
After Yao Tiao put down the phone, she went to find some kibbles for the doggie.
The owner had prepared everything for her– kibbles, a feeding bowl, a calming bed. There was really nothing more she needed to do.
By the time she got the food ready and turned around to feed the dog, it was gone!
“Aby?” the woman called out loudly. “Come and have lunch! C’mon, it’s time for your meal!”
The dog was hiding under a pile of clothes on the sofa in a corner. The woman could not find it after searching around the house.
She had no idea where it could have run to. The door was shut, so it should still be inside the room.
“Aby, where are you?” She was panicking by now and she scratched her head in frustration.
Suddenly, she noticed a faint movement at the corner of the sofa. Marching up to the spot, she flipped aside Ye Erruo’s coat to find the doggie hiding under it!
So it was trying to play hide-and-seek with her!
“You have to be fed six times a day but you have only had one meal so far today. Come and have your food now. Quick!” She scooped the dog up from the sofa and attempted to feed the creature the kibbles.
“OOOH!” The doggie tried to struggle free and adamantly refused the food.
Yao Tiao was speechless.
Then, the animal managed to give her the slip and dash out of her arms.
Jumping on the sofa, Red Bean grabbed Ye Erruo’s coat with its teeth and dragged it toward Yao Tiao. Upon pulling it next to her, it then rubbed its head against her calf.
“What is it?” The woman looked at the doggie in bewilderment.
Using its paw to slap the coat that was on the ground, the creature trained its puppy eyes on the woman as if it was asking, “Where is the owner of this outfit?”
Can this creature be a mere dog?
“Aha! I see. Are you looking for an outfit? But you’re just a puppy. What kind of outfit do you want?” Cocking an eyebrow wryly, she turned on her phone to search for a doggie outfit on Taobao[1].
Is the dog refusing to eat because it wants an outfit?
In the meantime, Red Bean continued to rub its head against her calf.
“Alright. I just got you an outfit. It’ll arrive in a few days. You can stop barking now.”
“OOOH!” The dog clapped the coat on the floor again.
Yao Tiao picked up the coat from the floor and said, “This is not for you. I’ve already gotten something for you. It’ll arrive soon. Now, be good.”
She was not sure if the dog could understand her as she performed this monologue, but her eyes never once left her cell phone’s screen.
Besides puppy outfits, she was busy buying toys for it as well. She had a heyday treating the puppy like a toddler.
Red Bean stared at the woman quizzically before jumping up to sink its teeth in Ye Erruo’s coat abruptly, refusing to let go this time…
