When the man walked in, she looked like she had just seen her savior.
Her body was stiff and rigid as she turned her pleading eyes to him. Apparently, the dog would start to react the moment she moved.
“Can you take it away?” she asked in a quivering voice.
“Come here, Aby.”
The woman immediately heaved a sigh of relief as Red Bean turned its head away from her to look at the man. Just as she was about to get up…
WOOF! WOOF!
The dog swung around without warning and started to bark at her ferociously.
The woman, who was taken aback by its reaction, retreated inadvertently.
The man’s lips twitched in resignation before he went to pick up the dog to prevent it from creating further havoc.
“What’s your name?”
“M-My name is Ye Erruo.”
“How old are you?”
“I-I don’t know.”
“Where are you staying?”
The woman shook her head and said, “I don’t know.”
Yu Lingfeng frowned. Really? Did Bo Jinyan erase her entire memory?
“I want to visit the washroom.”
“Go ahead.”
Xiao Nuo stared warily at the creature in his arms as she stood up cautiously. “W-Where is it?”
“Right beside you. Open the door and you’ll see it.”
She saw an opportunity and immediately seized that moment to escape to the lavatory. Red Bean seemed to sense that something was amiss as it burrowed its head out of the man’s arms to take a look.
WOOF! WOOF! Jumping away from his embrace, the creature started to scratch the lavatory door with its fat paws.
“Aby, behave yourself.” Feeling resigned, the man went to pick up the dog again.
There was a table with scattered lollipops next to him. He had to admit that the candy Mo Jiangye had provided was really tasty and he had taken it with him on this trip.
He went and took some as he waited for the girl.
“It’s time for your meal.”
Red Bean’s dog bowl was right next to him. It had been specifically customized so the food inside the bowl would not spill due to turbulence.
The dog, which was buried in his chest, whined in protest instead.
After jumping onto its designated seat, it dug its head into the bowl before retreating all of a sudden. A thought seemed to strike the creature as it curled itself into a ball with its butt facing the man. The dog was sending a message to him: I’m angry and I don’t care to follow your instructions!
Is the creature throwing a tantrum again?
After a long while, the lavatory door swung open finally and Xiao Nuo carefully made her way out.
Red Bean’s ears stood stiff and tall the instant it detected some movement from that direction. It fixed its eyes on her as it caught her emerging from the toilet.
“I-Is the dog unhappy with me?” she asked in a timid tone.
“Take a seat.”
She went back to her seat quietly. Her meal was already laid out for her on her tray.
“Can I eat now?”
Yu Lingfeng gazed at her face, which resembled his sister’s, while clenching the lollipop in his mouth. “Go ahead,” he told her with a nod.
“T-Thank you.”
The famished woman tucked into her food heartily.
“Where are you taking me?”
The amnesiac woman could not remember a single thing about her life except her name. She had only seen these two men the moment she had woken up from her deep slumber so she was needy around them.
“We are going home.”
“Going home? I have a home?”
For some unknown reason, the man ached for the girl when he heard that. “Of course!”
“I see.”
Only the two of them were in the front cabin, so she soon felt awkward after she finished her meal.
Meanwhile, Red Bean jumped down from its seat out of the blue to rest its butt in front of her. It was staring right at her.
Similarly, the man’s eyes were fixed on her face while he was enjoying his lollipop.
