CHAPTER 34: FEELS EVEN MORE ADORABLE

Chi Yu responded, "Mm." Then pointed at the dog at his feet, "I brought it back to you."

Otherwise, this mutt would keep following him.

At first, the village chief didn’t react. He just thought the dog looked more and more familiar. Suddenly, the village chief exclaimed, "Why does this dog look like our Huang?"

Chi Yu said coldly, "It is."

"What?" The village chief’s eyes widened in shock, staring incredulously at the dirty mutt at Chi Yu’s feet.

He leaned in for a closer look and exclaimed, "It really is my Huang! Oh dear, Huang, how did you end up like this? You wouldn’t eat and came back only now. Which cesspit did you fall into? Oh dear, tsk tsk tsk..."

Looking at the filthy Huang, the village chief seemed to want to pick it up but felt very disgusted.

Chi Yu said coldly, "Didn’t fall into a cesspit, fell into the reservoir. Watch your dog, next time it runs around everywhere, you should dig a pit for it."

The village chief was speechless and choked up.

Having raised dogs for so many years, only Huang couldn’t swim—the dog’s reputation was completely ruined. Seeing this, Huang definitely fell into the water, and it was this young man who must have fished Huang out.

The village chief promptly thanked Chi Yu.

Chi Yu tugged at his lips, not saying anything more.

These dirty clothes made him very uncomfortable; he had to go back and change.

"Brother Yu, you’re here too."

A light and cheerful female voice came, it was Li Yan, who had just come to the village chief’s house with everyone else. Weng Lan went to see the boss lady, Li Yan wasn’t interested, so she wandered around in the village chief’s yard and just turned around to see Chi Yu there.

She ran over to Chi Yu’s side, "Brother Yu, you..."

Noticing that Chi Yu was covered in dirt, and his pants were mostly wet, Li Yan gasped in surprise, covering her mouth, "Ah—Brother Yu, where have you been? How did you get yourself into this state?"

Chi Yu ignored Li Yan and turned to leave.

Li Yan hurried to catch up, closely following behind him, talking as she walked, "Brother Yu, I heard you went to the orchard, what did you do there?"

"Brother Yu, why have you been so down lately? If something’s bothering you, tell me, I’ll keep you company to cheer you up."

"Brother Yu..."

Chi Yu suddenly stopped, and Li Yan, unable to halt in time, was about to crash into Chi Yu’s back. Her face lit up, ready to fall right into him.

"Ouch," she cried, tripping and falling to the ground.

"Chi Yu!!" Li Yan playfully huffed, "You just watched me fall and didn’t help me up!"

Li Yan didn’t think she was talking too much at all, instead, she felt very cute.

Chi Yu looked at her coldly, "Sorry, that’s not my responsibility."

Li Yan: "..."

Li Yan got up, chased after him, and said while chasing, "Brother Yu, I have something to tell you. That woman is here chasing after you, she’s really shameless to follow you all the way to Ancient Water Village. If I weren’t an artist, I’d directly post her behavior online to let your fans scold her into self-isolation."

Chi Yu stopped again, turned around with a face as cold as ice, "I’ll say it one last time, stop following me."

Li Yan was so startled she didn’t dare step forward.

Mostly because Chi Yu’s face at that moment looked truly terrifying.

She nervously said, "I was just being considerate, I don’t want her bothering you."

Chi Yu: "Aren’t you bothering me?"

Li Yan: "..."
