Seeing Ming Li finally retrieve her sword, Heaven's Will, hidden in the darkness, let out a sigh of relief.
Damn it! A tigress! I can't afford to provoke her!
Ming Li raised her eyes and glanced indifferently at a corner of the overcast sky.
Heaven's Will, through layers of clouds and mist, met Ming Li's half-smiling gaze and shivered all over. It quickly conjured a colorful little quilt and wrapped itself up tightly.
Seeing this, Ming Li: ... A faint twitch at the corner of her mouth.
Seeing that Heaven's Will was no longer causing trouble, Ming Li withdrew her gaze, picked up the little dog from the ground, and walked towards the villa.
When Heaven's Will saw that there was no more commotion, it quietly lifted a corner of the quilt and peered out timidly. What it saw was Ming Li's receding back as she carried the little dog.
It felt as if ten thousand woolly mammoths were stampeding through its heart, crushing its fragile heart into dust...
Damn it, I'm so stupid! Can anyone tell me! Where did this terrifying woman come from? I can't control her! I can't beat her! I can't provoke her! Ahhhh! I'm going to be depressed!!
The more Heaven's Will thought about it, the angrier and more depressed it became, and the more wronged it felt. In the end, it buried itself under the quilt and cried loudly, "Waaaaah!" As a result, the rain in the sky grew heavier.
Ming Li stood at the villa entrance and knocked on the door with her other hand.
Knock, knock, knock!
A Zi, who was reading a book on the sofa in the living room, heard the knock and quickly got up and walked to the door.
A Zi raised her hand and glanced at the watch on her wrist, realizing it was already midnight.
It's so late, who could it be?
A Zi thought for a moment, then asked, "Who is it? Is there something at this late hour?"
Hearing this, Ming Li's voice was faint as she said to A Zi inside the door, "It's me. Open the door."
Upon hearing the familiar voice, A Zi quickly opened the door.
"Sister Li, weren't you in the study for a meeting? When did you go out?"
Ming Li was taken aback and said, "I just went out for something. You were probably too engrossed in your book to notice me."
A Zi nodded, and then her gaze fell on the little dog Ming Li was holding. She asked in confusion, "Sister Li, where did this little dog come from? It's so cute!"
Ming Li looked down at the little dog in her hand, and a faint twitch appeared at the corner of her mouth.
It's so dirty, how can you see it's cute?
Seeing A Zi's gaze fixed on the little dog, Ming Li handed it to her and said lightly, "This is a stray dog I found on the roadside just now. It probably doesn't have an owner. Take it and wash it clean."
A Zi: Why does Sister Li's words give her the feeling of taking it down to wash it clean, only to steam it later...
A Zi took the puppy and carefully said to Ming Li, "Sister Li... Actually, dog meat doesn't taste good! Steaming it isn't tasty at all. It's so cute, can we not eat it?"
Ming Li looked at the cautious A Zi in confusion. "Who told you I was going to eat it?"
A Zi: Just now...
Uh... It seems Sister Li didn't say she was going to eat it...
Thinking of this, A Zi's face broke into a bright smile, and her eyes were full of anticipation as she asked Ming Li, "So, Sister Li means we can keep it?"
Ming Li: "Why else would I bring it back? To stew and eat? Or to steam it?"
A Zi: ...
