Dog Life"s First Car
Zuo Ning got a new toy, the type that he really wanted to play with for a period of time when he was a child. But at that time, the price wasn"t cheap so his mother wasn"t willing to buy it for him to play with. After he grew up, this kind of thing became popular and inexpensive, and he had also long pa.s.sed the age where he could play with those toys. However, he didn"t expect that he would have the chance to play with them in this lifetime.
As per usual, after Zuo Ning accompanied Lu Chenghe on his morning run, he took the chance to push lightly on his body and ask for food as part of their daily intimate morning behaviour. Soon afterwards, the steward came over with two people carrying an oversized package and said that this was a present that Madam Lu had specially sent for Little Pudding.
Zuo Ning, who had originally wanted to eat a bite of egg white, had egg yolk stuffed into his mouth by Lu Chenghe. While swallowing the egg yolk and almost choking to death, the dog"s two paws hung over Lu Chenghe"s arms and curiously looked toward the gigantic package. He was sent a gift, one this large, one that was specially sent over from Italy, and he also didn"t know what kind of good thing it was.
Lu Chenghe held Little Pudding"s belly in one palm to avoid having its leg slide down and causing it to fall down off of his body as he swept his eyes over that big package, indicating for the steward to open it. They promptly opened it up, layer by layer, then a brand new Lamborghini that was bright red in colour with smooth contours and looked particularly expensive appeared before everyone"s eyes. But this Lamborghini was a bit different from the usual [1] as it was a bit small.
On the side, the steward said: "This morning when the young master was running, Madam called, saying to film a short video of Little Pudding driving a car and send it to Madam. In addition, she told the young master to video call the madam together with Little Pudding when you have time."
At that time, Lu Chenghe who was wiping Little Pudding"s mouth paused and said "En" to show that he understood, but he shouldn"t have the time to so and even if he did, it would probably be after Little Pudding went to sleep. In any case, this little thing was this lazy and from the beginning, it just slept all day.
The steward couldn"t guess the young master"s thoughts. After hearing the young master"s response, he handed the remote control over to the young master: "This is what the madam had custom-made just after bringing Little Pudding home. Aside from improving the interior of the model, the rest was made according to the real car."
Lu Chenghe placed Little Pudding, who was inquisitively looking at the car with its eyes wide open, into the car. Although it was a toy car, the technology and materials were nevertheless real and it came from a car manufacturing facility. Furthermore, because the models were different, it was even more labour intensive to make.
It wasn"t the first time that the Lu family had custom ordered this kind of toy, nearly every child of the Lu family had this kind of toy in their childhood. It seemed that Mother Lu was completely raising Little Pudding like she would a child.
It was Zuo Ning"s first time sitting in this kind of toy car as in his childhood, he couldn"t afford one. Though after growing up, he"d seen quite a few children in the neighbourhood playing with this kind of toy, every time, he would only give an envious look before leaving. After all, a person of that age playing with a child"s toy was too shameful, and as a youngster, he still needed his reputation.
But now, with a layer of his fur spread out in the car, he wasn"t even half a year old so he didn"t need to worry about the problem of reputation at all. Thus, he curiously felt around the car, patting here and there with half of his small tongue sticking out and his eyes narrowing as he smiled.
Often when looking at that kind of little expression, Lu Chenghe"s mood would also unconsciously become better. That silly and foolish appearance full of meng, it was likely that every pet owner couldn"t refuse it. Before coming in contact with this pet, he never would have felt that raising a pet could really make him feel this joy.
Rubbing the clearly immensely happy dog"s head, he then pressed a b.u.t.ton on the remote control, driving the car to the front, back, left, and right.
The car starting up didn"t alarm Zuo Ning, he knew that the remote control was in Lu Chenghe"s hands so he wasn"t worried at all. At his current height, he wasn"t able to reach the steering wheel when sitting in the seat, so he might as well stand on the seat. Sticking out his b.u.t.t, the tail on his behind that was already getting more and more fluffy was sticking up, and both of his paws were placed on the steering wheel. The corners of his mouth drew back in happiness and his smile didn"t even need to be overly bright.
The steward promptly took a video and included Lu Chenghe who was sitting at the dining table in the video.
He controlled the car, making it go in a circle around the living room, and Little Pudding"s tail happily wagged. When he intended to pick it up, it didn"t comply. The two paws holding onto the steering wheel clearly hadn"t played enough. Lu Chenghe thought that he didn"t have much to do resting at home today so he simply controlled the car with the remote control and walked toward the backyard.
Only during the past two days did the weather clear up after a period of overcast and rainy weather. There was still a thick layer of dew on the gra.s.s. Aside from running every morning, he was worried that Little Pudding would catch a cold and hardly let it go outside. In this rare moment, they came outside to sunbathe and Lu Chenghe walked a bit further with Little Pudding.
Lu Chenghe was strolling leisurely and Little Pudding was simply sitting in the car before lying against the car door and looking out at the scenery. The sun wasn"t scorching early in the morning, and the entire backyard had rows of large trees shielding them from the sun. From time to time, there was a cool breeze brushing by, and the sound of feet stepping on the dead leaves gave an indescribable sense of being safe and well for the years to come, both the owner and the pet felt very comfortable.
Zuo Ning closed his eyes and let out an enormous yawn, Lu Chenghe tilted his head and looked at it with a gentle smile: "You"re comfortable. I"m walking on foot while you"re taking the car, and you still want me to bring you out for a walk."
The sun shined down on the top of Lu Chenghe"s head. At that instant, in Zuo Ning"s eyes, Lu Chenghe was simply handsome to the point of being hated by both men and G.o.ds, and he"d long been fascinated to the point of being confused and disoriented by him narrowing his eyes to focus on Zuo Ning with a sweet smile: "Woof!" I knew you were the best! I like you the most!
Zuo Ning"s response was naturally not understood by Lu Chenghe, but that didn"t stop him from being joyful at the moment. Occasionally, when the weather was good, he would also go on a stroll like this, but that was almost always by himself. He quite liked the kind of pleasure from living alone during that time, but having a dog by his side now also felt pretty good.
Only when they had walked to the end of the grove did Zuo Ning see that there was also a gla.s.s greenhouse over there. From a distance, the bright colours of the interior could be seen through the gla.s.s.
Although Zuo Ning had heard that most animals couldn"t distinguish between many colours, he didn"t know whether it was because his own soul was that of a human, but he could distinguish between colours. Under the sun, he could clearly see every colour. Concerning this, he was still quite happy as otherwise, his world in the future would be colourless., how lonesome would that be?
The closer and closer they got to the greenhouse, the more beautiful scenery could be seen from its interior, in the middle of a great number of flowers was, to one"s surprise, a piano. Zuo Ning"s first thought was that with the moisture from watering the plants, the grand piano wouldn"t be ruined, would it? Following that, he looked toward Lu Chenghe with starry eyes.
It was no wonder that Lu Chenghe"s fingers were so slender and so nice-looking, it turns out that he also knew how to play the piano. He looked at the man. Sure enough, he had both talent and appearance!
Lu Chenghe picked Little Pudding up from the car and carrying him, they entered the greenhouse together, walking toward an area clearly meant as a resting area for people that looked extremely comfortable. Lu Chenghe said: "Wait until winter. When the sunlight is just right, I"ll bring you here to take a nap, it"s very comfortable to sleep here. By that time, you would have probably grown quite large, right?"
Speaking while jolting the weight in his arms a bit: "If you get too fat, I might not be able to carry you anymore."
Zuo Ning pushed with his hind legs, trying to climb up. As soon as his two paws were around Lu Chenghe"s neck, he started to talk: "Awoo!" Even if baby gets bigger, baby will still be your baby!
Not able to remember when he saw these words online, Zuo Ning thought that they were very applicable at this moment. What a pity it was that Lu Chenghe couldn"t understand them.
Perhaps sensing that it was dissatisfied, Lu Chenghe held Little Pudding"s bottom in one hand and laughed gently: "Okay okay, I won"t call you fat. You look the best." He heard that frequently saying negative things would give pets a psychological shadow and give pets depression. It seemed that although Little Pudding was still young, its ego was quite large, and in the future, he should compliment it more.。
Sure enough, as soon as Lu Chenghe finished speaking, he saw that Little Pudding"s tail stood up and cheerfully wagged. The feeling of the tail that was getting more and more fluffy was superb, smooth and soft. Sweeping over his palm over and over again, Lu Chenghe subconsciously used his hand to rub it.
Zuo Ning felt that his own b.u.t.t was being kneaded and tried to get up at once. At this moment, his line of sight just so happened to be on Lu Chenghe"s outstanding and straight nose, if his mouth went forward by just a little bit, he could kiss it. For some unexplainable reason [2], Zuo Ning used his paws to cup Lu Chenghe"s face and extended his tongue to lick his mouth.
Lu Chenghe was stunned, Zuo Ning himself was also stunned and then right before Lu Chenghe could manage to react, he buried his head into Lu Chenghe"s neck. He actually licked him, actually licked him, obviously he had only wanted to kiss him once and nothing more. As expected, was it the dog"s soul causing trouble?
Lu Chenghe was stunned because this kind of feeling was too strange. A warm and soft thing sweept over his lips with a kind of softness that only a weak creature had, making people feel ticklish. When he managed to react and realize that it was his dog"s tongue, that little thing had already buried his head and wasn"t willing to raise it. Finding it funny, he reached out and patted its b.u.t.t: "You"re not allowed to randomly lick. The next time you do this, I"ll hit you."
Zuo Ning still had his head firmly buried in Lu Chenghe"s neck: "Ao~" Let"s talk about what happens next time when it happens okay?
After getting Little Pudding familiar with the greenhouse, Lu Chenghe returned to the main house from the other side. When he had just walked to the doorway, a car that was exactly the same as his house"s Little Pudding"s toy car drove over. Probably somewhat stunned seeing the shrunken Lamborghini, he stared at the small car as well as the dog inside of the small car with a blank expression: "So I actually drive the same car as your house"s dog!"
Little Pudding who was sitting in the car silently roasted him, a grown man driving this kind of gaudy red convertible car, if he wasn"t a flashy man, then he must be the pampered son of a wealthy family.
That man seemingly took a moment to accept reality and after that, he reacted: "Second brother, when did you start raising a dog? Weren"t you the person who hated pets the most?!"
It was important to know that as children, they had all raised cats, dogs, bunnies, and little birds, but at that time, this older cousin wouldn"t even look at them. When they were all teasing the pets, he also wouldn"t get close to them at all. Hence, his older cousin not liking pets was something everyone knew. But now, he was unexpectedly raising a dog. The world was changing too fast and he was somewhat unable to react.
Hearing how this man called Lu Chenghe, Zuo Ning thought that they might be relatives. Thus, he quickly faced that person and exposed a model Samo smile. He had to make everyone around Lu Chenghe be fond of him. That"s right, he was exactly this kind of scheming dog!
Seeing Little Pudding expose a smile that made people feel warm, Lu Chenghan shouted out "Aima!" with an odd tone. Afterwards, he pounced over and hugged the entire dog into his embrace: "Your house"s dog is so cute aaaaaa! It smiled at me! Give it to me! Give it to me!"
Consequently, the warm feeling smile disappeared in a moment and in addition, the fierce baby teeth that hadn"t been replaced by permanent teeth yet were exposed.
The author has something to say:
Zuo Little Ning: Lu Chenghe, quickly come! There"s someone coveting your house"s dog!
Lu Little He: Kill him!
