Xiao La?
Liu Sanlang didn't know whether he should laugh or cry. Wasn't this name a bit too perfunctory? If it was a Husky, would it be called Little Hus?
She held Xiao La's front paws as if she was shaking hands. "Hello, Xiao La. I am Shi Shi's sister. This is … "She pointed at Liu Sanlang.
"Oh, Liu, what is your full name?" she asked.
Liu Sanlang almost vomited blood!
"Liu Sanlang," he said awkwardly.
"Oh, this Liu Sanlang is your dad. Do you understand?"
"Wait, this is not the right seniority, right?" he couldn't help but remind her.
Why am I its dad and you its sister? I don't want to have a cheap daughter!
"What?" Shi Shi tilted her head to show that she didn't understand.
"Nothing," he smiled bitterly.
She touched her pocket, "Ah, I didn't bring any snacks today. What should I give you as a gift?"
"I have snacks here!" Liu Sanlang ran to the pet shop and took out a bag of beef jerky. He tore it open and handed it to her.
Smelling the food, Xiao La immediately climbed onto her body, showing its greedy face.
"Here, you can have some." Shi Shi took out a piece and it was caught in its mouth.
The beef jerky was hard and Xiao La was in the growing period. The new front teeth were not as sharp and thin as baby teeth. It escaped from Shi Shi's hand, spat the beef jerky on the ground, pressed its paws on the beef jerky, tore it open with its sharp teeth, chewed it and swallowed it. Then it put its arms on Shi Shi's knees and opened its mouth, asking for food.
"Haha, don't worry. Take your time. There is more." Shi Shi took out the beef jerky and fed it piece by piece.
Seeing this, Liu Sanlang's heart was filled with warmth. It was said that for American men, a wife, a child and a dog were the three things that made their lives complete. Although Liu Sanlang was not American, he still felt the same way. Now that he had a dog, all he needed was a wife and a child.
He could be considered a traditional Chinese man. He had his own skills, was a man of few words, was relatively thrifty, and was filial to his parents. His relationship with his colleagues was not bad, and he belonged to the kind of friendship between gentlemen that was as indifferent as water. Shi Shi was like a girl from another world. She was fashionable, lively, and didn't have much money in her hands. She also had a bunch of close friends. He didn't know why he liked her. Maybe it was because they complemented each other, or maybe there was no reason at all. After all, "liking" didn't make sense at all.
Liu Sanlang understood that the chances of him and Shi Shi ending up together were slim. Would her parents, who were equally traditional, accept such a daughter-in-law? Would her parents on the other side of the world accept a man like him who was out of the ordinary? However, he still had to give it a try. This way, even if he failed, he wouldn't have any regrets.
Shi Shi came to his house. Although it was only to see the dog and not him, at least it was a good start.
She accepted Xiao La's request and quickly fed it a bag of beef jerky. Xiao La, who was still not satisfied, licked her fingers and even licked the crumbs on her fingertips clean. Then, it barked twice and alternately patted her knees with its two front paws, as if it was urging her to go faster.
"Do you have more? Bring me another bag! "Shi Shi reached out her hand.
"Yes!" Liu Sanlang brought her another bag of beef jerky.
"Good boy, don't worry. I have more." She tore open the bag and continued to feed it.
Liu Sanlang was so happy that he had forgotten about the training. He didn't notice that Xiao La was getting more and more impolite to them. Labradors were really smart dogs. They were good at learning and observing people to make their lives more comfortable.
Barking would get delicious food. The louder the barking, the faster the food would come. This idea was slowly being integrated into its subconsciousness.
Xiao La was not satisfied with waiting for it to be fed. It reached out its head and bit at Shi Shi's hand.
Two pieces of beef jerky were stuck together. They were too thick and had a lot of tendons. Shi Shi was afraid that Xiao La couldn't bite through them, so she wanted to separate them and feed them to Xiao La. However, Xiao La took them all away.
Xiao La couldn't bite through them. It chewed a few times and spat them on the ground. Then it scratched them with its paws.
"You can't bite through them, right? Come on, I will tear them apart for you. "Shi Shi reached out her hand to pick up the beef jerky.
"Woo!" Xiao La suddenly opened its mouth and bit at Shi Shi's hand.
Liu Sanlang and Shi Shi didn't have time to react. They watched Xiao La bite Shi Shi's wrist.
"Ah!"
Shi Shi screamed in a low voice. Her face turned pale. Her legs felt like jelly and she fell to the ground.
Xiao La only bit her lightly. Shi Shi was scared and let go of her hand. The beef jerky fell on the ground and Xiao La went back to its mouth.
"Shi Shi, are you okay? Are you okay? "Liu Sanlang hurried to help her up from the ground.
"I am fine! I am fine! "Shi Shi quickly calmed down and waved her hand. She raised her wrist and stared at the place where she was bitten.
Liu Sanlang was sweating. "Should we go to the hospital? Do we need to get a rabies vaccine? Wait here. I will call 120 … "He looked around anxiously, trying to find his cell phone.
"No, I am fine." Shi Shi, on the other hand, was calm. She raised her wrist in front of Liu Sanlang. "Look, even my skin is not red. It bit my bracelet."
Liu Sanlang was distracted by her delicate wrist. His attention was completely focused on the shallow veins under her skin. He was intoxicated.
Shi Shi didn't notice that he lost his composure. She shook her wrist and took it back.
Liu Sanlang seemed to wake up from a dream. He murmured, "As long as you are fine. As long as you are fine …" He didn't want to see a scar on that almost perfect wrist. He didn't want to see her get hurt. The most intolerable thing was being bitten by his dog!
Thinking of this, he finally came back to himself. Xiao La bit her!
He was furious. He stood in front of Shi Shi and said, "This dog bit me. I am going to send it back!" He meant to send it back to the pet shop. The store owner had told him that this was a non-aggressive dog. Why did it bite? Was it because this dog was not purebred?
Shi Shi thought he was going to abandon the puppy. Her face darkened immediately. She said with dissatisfaction, "How can you be so cruel? If it gets caught in the rain, it will freeze to death! "
"But … but it bit you …" Liu Sanlang murmured incoherently.
"It didn't do it on purpose! I was careless. It is a dog's nature to protect its food. Besides, it didn't break the skin! "Shi Shi defended Xiao La.
Liu Sanlang stared at Xiao La, who was chewing on the beef jerky. He was hesitant. Her skin was perfectly fine. It wasn't broken, but it was a fact that it had bitten her. This time, it happened to bite her bracelet. Next time, it might not be so lucky. On the other hand, what Shi Shi said seemed to make sense. It was indeed a dog's nature to protect its food. However, even its owner couldn't touch its food? Or was it because they had only been together for a short time, and it hadn't recognized him and her as its owner?
