Chapter 44: Little wolf cub (2)
Outside was even worse than it had looked from inside the building. The road was blurry and Qiao Dai walked slowly, carefully holding the umbrella to avoid any accident.
“Woooh—”
Between the heavy noise of the rain, Qiao Dai heard a small cry and she stopped in her tracks to look around with squinted eyes. After a while, she noticed a small shadow cowering from the water.
Qiao Dai hesitated for a minute and stepped toward the cry. As she got closer, she realized the shadow was a drenched fluffy puppy. It looked somewhat unhappy and was staring at the building behind her intently.
Was it waiting for its human?
“Why are you here by yourself? Where is your master? Did you get lost?” Qiao Dai was really surprised to find a puppy in such bad weather. She couldn’t help but find it a little pitiful but also rather similar to her; she was also a small animal and it was very easy to empathize with.
The puppy was a husky with beautiful fur despite the rain and clever eyes. Despite its wet body, it couldn’t hide its strength and energy.
“Woooh—”
The puppy noticed Qiao Dai’s approach and it howled. Its eyes shrank nervously and it took a defensive posture.
“Don’t be afraid, I won’t hurt you.”
Qiao Dai waved her hand, trying to appear harmless. The dog seemed to understand her and stopped howling. It looked at her and stretched a paw forward.
Qiao Dai couldn’t bear to leave a puppy in such weather. She looked at its pitiful appearance and checked the weather forecast on her phone; the rain was announced to last for a few days. If she left it here, the little thing could get sick and die.
With such dark thoughts, she decided to bring it back to the dormitory with her. As soon as the rain would stop, she would entrust the dog to the program team, maybe have them find its owner or a family willing to adopt it.
One human and one dog braved the rain slowly with one umbrella. Because she was carrying a wet animal, no taxi wanted to let her in.
“Little girl, with such a big dog on a rainy day, which driver will take you?”
Every time a taxi stopped and noticed the dog, they all refused her fare. Not only they didn’t know whether the dog would bite, it was also soaked all over; nobody wanted to watch the all car seat.
The latest driver couldn’t bear to look at Qiao Dai, who was shaking in the cold wind. He told her the dog was a problem and if she wasn’t willing to put it in the trunk, he wouldn’t drive her either.
And as soon as the puppy heard about that, it whimpered loudly; many animals hated dark and small spaces because it reminded them of cages. Qiao Dai knew this too well and she shook her head before apologizing to the driver.
Because of the heavy rain, cars had their lights on and Qiao Dai stared at them in a daze, trying to find a way to get back to the dormitory. Lost in thoughts, she didn’t notice right away the vehicle that stopped in front of her. When she looked up, she instantly came back to her senses.
“Cheng Su?”
The window rolled down and revealed the handsome profile of the driver. Hearing the girl’s slightly surprised voice, Cheng Su unlocked the door.
He was weirdly not surprised to find her on the side of the road with a drenched dog, unable to get a taxi willing to take her. Hadn’t she come here to find guests for her upcoming performance? Why would she pick up a dog instead?
Cheng Su had not planned to come at first but when it had started to raid, he hadn’t been able to stop himself. And as soon as he had approached Galaxy’s headquarters, he had found this silly sea otter with a silly little puppy.
“Thank you.”
Qiao Dai carried the wet dog and placed it into the car first, before getting in too. As soon as the door closed, she immediately started to feel a little warmer.
Cheng Su looked at Qiao Dai in the rearview mirror. She was also soaked and he frowned when his gaze fell on the animal.
“This dog…”
Qiao Dai lifted her head slightly and waited for the rest of his sentence. Cheng Su quickly looked away and started the car again.
“I don’t like it.”
Qiao Dai stared at the beautiful puppy and couldn’t help but wonder why Cheng Su would dislike such a cute little thing.
But as she watched the animal, she missed its reaction when it heard the word “dog”.
Dog?
