Chapter 48: Deliver These Chocolates to My Wife
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
‘Gu Nianshen, do you have to treat me like this?’ Lin Yiqian thought.
She leaned her head back as she looked toward the sky. With a sigh, she did her best to suppress the bitterness she felt in her heart.
Right then, Gu Nianshen took his key out and pressed on a b.u.t.ton as the trunk opened on its own. Lin Yiqian went over to get her luggage and quickly entered the house. Throughout the process, she did not look at him at all.
Gu Nianshen clenched his fists tightly together as he looked at her storming away. He was about to bang his fists against the steering wheel when he suddenly noticed a teddy bear plus.h.i.+e on the dashboard.
It was a teddy bear plus.h.i.+e that Gu Nianjia had deliberately left in his car.
The teddy bear had a smile on its face and even had flushed cheeks.
“What are you smiling at? What’s so good about him?” Gu Nianshen exclaimed as he punched the plus.h.i.+e instead.
After punching the teddy bear plus.h.i.+e, Gu Nianshen grabbed it by the head and flung it out of the window.
Suddenly, he recalled that the three boxes of chocolates were still on the backseat of the car.
The anger he felt immediately returned as he took the chocolates and got out of the car.
He then flung the chocolates to the side of the streets.
‘You’re such a fool.’ Gu Nianshen thought to himself.
He must have gotten crazy to want to do so much to please her.
As he was prepared to step on the boxes of chocolates, a large collie suddenly appeared.
Bark! Bark!
The collie barked at Gu Nianshen twice before it picked up one of the boxes with its mouth and tried to run away.
“Hey, Gu Xiaoxiao, that’s not for you!” Gu Nianshen fumed.
This was Gu Nianjia’s border collie. She had given it their family’s surname while its first name was Xiaoxiao.
The dog was very well trained and obedient. As long as it recognized someone in the family, it would listen to his or her command.
When it heard Gu Nianshen’s command, Xiaoxiao immediately stopped. However, it was still unwilling to let go of the box of chocolate.
Howl!
Gu Nianshen looked at the curious dog but yet was afraid to disobey him. All of a sudden, Gu Nianshen’s eyes lit up.
He kneeled down with a box of chocolates and began to speak softly. “Bring this to my room on the second floor. Deliver it to my wife, Lin Yiqian.”
As Gu Nianshen spoke, he retrieved his phone to show a picture of Lin Yiqian to Gu Xiaoxiao. The dog stared at the screen for a moment before it sat on the ground.
It appeared uninterested in doing what Gu Nianshen had asked it to do.
Gu Nianshen was about to say something threatening. However, changing his mind, he began to show various pictures of pork ribs to Xiaoxiao. “If you do what I say, I’ll give you more of these for dinner.”
When Gu Xiaoxiao saw the pork ribs, it immediately got up on its legs as it picked up one of the boxes of chocolates. With its tail wagging, Gu Xiaoxiao trotted into the house.
“Don’t steal any of it!” Gu Nianshen added.
Once Xiaoxiao disappeared into the house, Gu Nianshen lowered his head as he prepared to lock his phone. That was when he saw the pictures of pork ribs he had searched for earlier. Since when did dogs have the right to bargain?

Lin Yiqian had changed her clothes and was getting ready for a shower when she suddenly heard a scratching sound on her door. She opened the door with a confused expression.
A beautiful border collie was sitting in front of her door with a box of chocolates in its mouth. It then dropped the box of chocolates in front of her as it began to breathe loudly.
Lin Yiqian recognized the dog. It was a gift from Song Changlin to Gu Nianjia five years ago. Indeed, it was a very pure border collie.
