Risfar immediately grew spirited. It seemed that there actually was a trick."Usually, Uncle calls them stupid dog, d*mn dog, b*stard, failure…just like that. If they mess up, he yells at them."
Risfar was speechless. They couldn"t understand these insults.
"Faith, let"s swim. Can White Ma and Black Ma swim?"
"They"re really fast at swimming, but I can"t."
"Faith, can you give us Black Ma or White Ma?"
"No."
"What if we trade Laffer with you?"
"No, Laffer is dumb. I don"t want it."
Laffer was being insulted for no reason…
Risfar spent the afternoon observing Black Ma and White Ma. When Faith played in the water, they would toss the lifebuoy to her. If she was drowning, they would jump in immediately and fish her out.
If she wanted to ride them in the water, one of them would jump in at her order for her to ride.
When the three kids were tired from playing, they went to sleep on the living room sofa. The two wolves also grabbed blankets in their mouths for the three kids. These were blankets from Risfar"s house too.
They"d gone directly into a bedroom and grabbed the blankets for them.
They were as caring as family, always looking over the weaker kids. Risfar had to admit that if his kids could have two pets like them, they would at least be safe.
These weren"t the b.l.o.o.d.y and violent wolves that Risfar knew.
They even knew how to use the air conditioning remote control.
Risfar was so impressed with their owner. Just how did he train them to reach this level?
He looked at Black Ma and White Ma. They were sprawled in front of the sofa, watching the three sleeping girls. Earlier, they"d played too much and used up all their energy.
When Risfar approached them, Black Ma and White Ma looked up at him. Then they lowered their heads and went to sleep.
They can tell good people from the bad, Risfar thought.
"Black Ma…White Ma…" He tried calling their names, but the Silly Twins didn"t react. It could also be said that they just ignored Risfar.
"h.e.l.lo, I"m Risfar, Ronnie and Vera"s dad."
The Silly Twins stayed on the ground. Who is this? We"re not interested in meeting you. Go away and leave us alone.
"What do you two like? Beef?"
Black Ma and White Ma immediately raised their heads. Risfar realized that they understood the word "beef."
"Do you like to eat it raw?"
They shook their heads together. Risfar continued asking, "What about cooked?"
Nod…
"Eat potatoes?"
Shake…
"Bananas?"
Shake…
"Are you hungry now?"
Nod…
These two dogs had a shocking vocabulary. Most dogs could only understand a few simple words, but they seemed to know what he was saying. Risfar wouldn"t think that they could actually understand though. He just thought that they were smart.
"What degree of doneness do you two like?"
The Silly Twins exchanged glances. Then White Ma made five scratches on the wooden table"s leg.
Risfar was completely speechless at these two wolves. They were too smart. He wanted to take them for himself, but with his status, he couldn"t do things like stealing pets.
Of course, he was willing to buy them with a great sum. Back then, he"d paid $1,000,000 to buy Laffer as a puppy.
He didn"t think it was expensive. To a wealthy man, Laffer was worth this price because its parents were both famous dogs. Laffer indeed showed its value too. It was loyal and smart.
However, after seeing the Silly Twins, Risfar realized what "smart" actually was. There was no compet.i.tion.
Risfar ordered the kitchen to prepare top-quality steaks. However, the Silly Twins sniffed the steaks before eating as if taking precautions.
Thinking a bit, Risfar took out a bottle of tranquilizers. Before he could approach them, the two wolves bared their teeth at him and growled.
This made Risfar even more confident in his idea. If they could accompany his daughters, it would be like finding best friends and the best bodyguards for them.
Many parents would find a dog for their child for protection. However, dogs were greedy about food. They would often get tricked and eat something they shouldn"t.
White Ma and Black Ma clearly weren"t like that though. Risfar was sure that if someone with evil intentions tried to hurt Faith, they would tear him to shreds. Of course, they definitely were able to tear someone to shreds too.
Around two p.m., Chen Zhao and Dell entered Risfar"s manor.
"Mr. Risfar."
"h.e.l.lo, Mr. Dell. And this is?"
"This is my friend, Chen. He"s Black Ma and White Ma"s owner. Oh, the dogs and Faith didn"t cause any trouble, right?"
Dell had some pride on his face, as if saying, Ha, you lost, right?
"Ha, no. They"re sleeping right now and even ate a piece of steak." Risfar chuckled. The fight between them had been immature and childish. Whether he won or not, it wouldn"t really affect their adult relations.h.i.+p.
"Mr. Chen, I must admit that Black Ma and White Ma are the most intelligent dogs I"ve ever seen."
"You haven"t seen his other pets." Dell pursed his lips, expressing that Risfar hadn"t seen enough.
"Mr. Chen, are you willing to leave them? I can pay $1,000,000 to buy their owners.h.i.+p."
"I"m sorry, Mr. Risfar. I"m afraid this is impossible."
"Two million dollars."
"Mr. Risfar, let"s change the topic," Chen Zhao said.
"Okay, I"m sorry for the offense." Risfar hadn"t expected much.
He knew Black Ma and White Ma"s value, but he wouldn"t spend more money than that to buy two dogs.
"Mr. Chen, you seem to be skilled in beast training. Can you share your experiences with me? I wish to make Laffer smarter too."
"Uh…I don"t really do much," Chen Zhao said off-handedly. "I just kick them and hit them when they make a mistake."
This was the same as what Faith had said. Risfar really believed it for a moment. "Is that really effective?"
