Tian Hail s lecherous eyes narrowed as they reflected the graceful figure of a woman, she was simply stunning.
She had a slender figure, but her chest, waist, hips, and other areas were maturely curved and contoured.
She exuded perfection from head to toe, even in loose-fitting clothes, making him feel aroused.
Reluctant to leave, he wished he had X-ray vision to glimpse her shapely chest beneath her clothes.
Tian Hai sighed deeply, “Zizi, you didn’t even invite me inside to sit. I specially brought apples for you, could you please open the door…”
Before he could finish, Gu Zi interrupted, “I told you I don’t want your stuff. If you don’t leave, I’ll unleash the dog!”
As she spoke, Gu Zi walked over to Big Yellow, unclasped its leash, granting it freedom.
Big Yellow was already barking nonstop at Tian Hai. As soon as Gu Zi released the dog, it lunged toward the gate, revealing fierce teeth that startled Tian Hai, causing him to step back hastily.
In his rush, he tripped on a stone, tumbling to the ground. His apples rolled out, leaving him in a disheveled state.
Gu Zi sneered, “Go away. If you don’t, I’ll open the door.”
At this moment, a woman who passed by came over and helped Tian Hai up. Her eyes were filled with heartache.
“Isn’t this Su Jing’s boyfriend?” she asked Gu Zi loudly. “You’re too much. You won’t even let him in!”
Gu Zi didn’t expect someone to defend this disgusting and lecherous man. She wouldn’t back down on this matter, no matter whose face it involved.
She didn’t want to repeat the original storyline or be rumored to have a relationship with such a man; it disgusted her.
Gu Zi, holding Le Le, said calmly, “As I said, if you don’t leave, I’ll open the door. You’ll only have yourself to blame if you get bitten.”
She then moved to open the door, and Tian Hai swiftly ran off with the woman.
Gu Zi entered the house and grabbed a large bone to reward Big Yellow, patting its head. “It’s all thanks to you, Big Yellow!”
In fact, Gu Zi was a bit nervous just now; it was her first time dealing with someone like that.
If it weren’t for scaring him off with Big Yellow, he might still be lingering here.
Big Yellow, chewing on the bone, then strolled over to the gate and sat down, looking back at Gu Zi as if saying, “Don’t be afraid, I’ll sit here; no one will dare to bully you.”
Seeing this, Su Le, in Gu Zi’s arms, wanted to get down, so Gu Zi let her.
As soon as Su Le touched the ground, she ran toward Big Yellow and squatted next to it, then turned to look at Gu Zi, shouting in her childish voice, “Mommy, mommy!”
It was as if she was saying, “Mommy, I’ll protect you together with Big Yellow!” In that instant, tears welled up in Gu Zit s eyes.
She wasn’t someone who cried easily, but no woman would feel comfortable after being harassed.
Yet, having Lele and Big Yellow by her side made her feel much better.
Just as Su Le was about to take Big Yellow’s bone, Gu Zi walked over and picked her up.
“Mommy will make formula milk for Lele, okay?”
Su Le looked at Gu Zi brightly, reaching for her face, and said, “Yes! Yes!”
Gu Zi was instantly amused by her. She carried Su Le in and made milk for her.
Then, she went to the kitchen to boil a pot of water. When the water was about to boil, she took a large basin out.
She had already picked and washed the vegetables that she had bought this morning and placed them in the courtyard to bask in the sun.
This was a tip from her female classmate; to make pickled vegetables crispy, it was necessary to wilt them under the sun before pickling.
The sun was shining brightly today. She squatted down to check that the vegetables in the courtyard were all ready.
She put all the vegetables into a big basin and filled it up. She dragged it to the kitchen.
After blanching the vegetables in boiling water and rinsing them with running water, Gu Zi placed them in a ventilated area to naturally drain off excess water.
She then boiled another pot of water to prepare a glutinous rice flour paste. After the paste was ready, she took a jar with a sealable lid she found on the rooftop at home, something Su Shen said she could use.
She neatly arranged the drained vegetables into the jar and poured the glutinous rice paste and a suitable amount of white vinegar into it, sealing the jar.
Looking at the jar in front of her, Gu Zi felt a sense of accomplishment.. All that was left was to place the pickled vegetable jar in a cool place and let time work its magic to create a delicious dish!
