Chapter 146 A Big Tibetan Mastiff
Su Su was drooling over Luo Chen’s good looks when Su Qian looked over. She quickly shook her head and wanted to deny it when Su Qian suddenly stood up and said in surprise, “Su Su, I just remembered that I found a bird’s nest with newborn chicks in it!”
Since Su Qian was a child, her thoughts were pure and out of control. Su Su could not help but laugh. But at this moment, Su Su was bored and became curious, so she asked, “Where is
it?”
Su Qian quickly jumped to Su Su’s side and held her hand. “Come on. I’ll take you there. I still remember where it is.”
“B-But Ah Shan will get worried if she can’t find me.” Su Su stopped in her tracks and looked at the occupied Ah Shan. She was conflicted on whether or not she should follow Su Qian.
Ever since the incident with the venomous snake, Su Jun had requested that the Su family take turns protecting Su Su. But at this time, Ah Shan was the only servant around. Ah Shan was responsible for Su Su, and Su Jun would blame Ah Shan if he found out that Su Su had slipped away.
Su Qian said, “It’ll be okay. We’ll be back before Ah Shan even notices you’re gone!” Su Qian had snuck out many times, so she was confident with what she was doing.
“O-Okay.” Su Su hesitated, but her curiosity got the best of her. Seeing that Ah Shan was occupied, Su Su took the opportunity and slipped away through the main door.
“The little chicks were so cute. They’re not afraid of humans, and they even rubbed their heads against my finger!” Su Qian led Su Su to a nearby bush, pushed aside the branches that were taller than them, and walked through. “Wow! I’ve never touched a bird before!” Su Su was surprised and quickly followed Su Qian.
After taking a few steps through the bushes, Su Su heard faint sounds of birds chirping. As Su Qian pushed aside the branches, Su Su saw a nest of chicks toward the end. The chicks only had a few feathers growing. They looked cute and fluffy.
Su Su seemed to be in the backyard of an unknown family’s home. She looked around and saw that there was no one present. Then Su Su squatted down and huddled with Su Qian. The two studied the bird’s nest attentively.
“I’m fascinated by how the chicks eat. Their parents bring worms back, and only the strong ones can snatch them. Look, this one is bigger than the rest.” Su Qian picked one of the chicks up and held it in her hand as she spoke to Su Su.
Su Su listened attentively and said, “Wow! I’d starve to death if I were a bird because I wouldn’t get a single worm.”
Su Qian was amused by what she heard. “You won’t starve to death. Your brothers would feed you all the worms you want.”
While the two chatted, Su Su heard some dry leaves crackling nearby as if something was plodding around. The sounds got louder, like someone or something was running toward them.
‘Is someone here?’ Su Su turned around and saw something terrifying.
An enormous Tibetan Mastiff with black fur stared at the two. It let out a threatening growl and quickly ran toward them. The Tibetan Mastiff appeared before the little girls almost instantly. It chomped its sharp teeth and stared at the two vigilantly. Then the dog started scratching the ground with one of its paws.
Su Su could read the dog’s body language clearly, and she knew that it was preparing to attack the intruders that had entered its territory.
