Chapter 126: Chapter 126 Dog Food

That’s a lot!

Yun Shifei exclaimed.

Looking at several large bags, she figured they were probably full of clothes.

She opened one of them and found a pink down jacket, with a furry trim on the hood—it looked especially beautiful.

She then turned to another bag and found a short plaid wool coat, very student-like in style.

There were also skirts, and even boots had been purchased.

The clothes matched her age perfectly, stylish and attractive.

They didn’t look anything like Yun Tiancheng’s taste; she couldn’t help but ask, "Dad, did you really pick out these clothes yourself?"

"A friend of mine helped me. I asked her to choose them for you."

Yun Shifei made an "Oh" sound, guessing it was probably a female friend.

Such great taste.

The sizes were spot on too; Yun Shifei tried them all on.

"Shi Fei, do you like them?" Yun Tiancheng asked.

"I love them, thanks Dad."

No girl dislikes beautiful new clothes, especially not when she gets so many all at once.

Yun Tiancheng couldn’t resist ruffling Yun Shifei’s hair: "When you first came back, Dad wasn’t as attentive and left everything to your mom. I’m sorry for not taking care of you properly during that time. From now on, I’ll make up for it. Give Dad a chance, okay?"

Yun Shifei nodded her head.

She has always been clear about her feelings; if someone likes her, she likes them in return. If they don’t like her, neither will she like them.

Yun Tiancheng couldn’t help but smile and asked, "Shi Fei, how about adopting a puppy? If Dad is away on business, it’ll keep you company at home, and it’s fun too."

Yun Shifei immediately nodded. She had always liked furry animals but had never had the chance to raise one.

In her past life, things had been so terrible that being able to support herself was already a luxury—there was no room to care for pets.

She thought of Old Mrs. Xu’s dog. Although it was quite fierce at first, in just two days, it warmed up to her. She and the dog played joyfully every single day.

And so, a puppy appeared in her home.

It wasn’t the Shih Tzu common in households, but a small golden retriever instead.

The tiny golden retriever wandered around the living room with a confused look, sniffing here and there out of curiosity.

Yun Shifei softened as she watched the toy-like puppy.

It was she who asked Yun Tiancheng to buy a golden retriever.

Golden retrievers are enthusiastic, gentle, and intelligent, and in modern times, they are often used as emotional support animals.

Her reason for raising this puppy also had something to do with Cheng Lie.

Dogs are like angels; they can heal everything. Someone like Cheng Lie, with autism—having a dog’s companionship would surely improve his mood.

That weekend, Yun Shifei invited Cheng Lie to her home.

As soon as he entered, Yun Shifei called out, "Baby, come here!"

Cheng Lie’s eyebrows twitched when he heard Yun Shifei call "baby."

Soon enough, he saw a small creature appear in front of him.

It walked with lively steps, wagging its tail, circling around Yun Shifei before sniffing at Cheng Lie, and then pouncing on him with great enthusiasm.

Cheng Lie couldn’t help but frown and stepped back.

Unexpectedly, the puppy thought he was playing and clung to Cheng Lie’s pant leg with its paws.

Yun Shifei quickly picked up the golden retriever, held it up in front of Cheng Lie, and shook it slightly: "Look, my dad gave me this puppy. Isn’t it cute?"

The golden retriever stuck out its tongue, its shiny black eyes staring at him innocently, its goofy expression endearing.

Cheng Lie glanced at Yun Shifei again.

The girl’s eyes were also glossy black and seemed just as harmless.

Tsk, like owner, like pet—this dog really resembled her.

Cheng Lie felt a hint of disdain.

Yet he couldn’t resist extending his hands to take the golden retriever and holding it in his arms.

Seeing that Cheng Lie liked the puppy, Yun Shifei knew her idea wasn’t wrong.

She suddenly thought of something and remarked, "Oh right, it’s about time for Baby to eat."

She’d actually been calling a dog "Baby."

Cheng Lie fiddled with the puppy in his hands, feeling as though he didn’t even measure up to a dog.

Yun Shifei left Cheng Lie with the puppy while she fetched some dog food, poured it into a bowl, and placed it on the floor.

Cheng Lie rubbed the puppy.

He didn’t feel much for pets, only that they seemed extraordinarily fragile—so small when they’re young, they look hard to raise.

As adults, they become deeply attached to their owners, and no matter how they’re treated, they stay loyal and never abandon them.

Such fragile beings, from birth until their death.

He hadn’t liked them before, thinking they were too delicate.

But now, he actually found it interesting.

The puppy started to romp around with Cheng Lie, and even tried biting his finger with its tiny mouth.

Blood instantly appeared.

Yun Shifei had just finished preparing the dog food and turned around to see the puppy biting Cheng Lie’s finger.

She hurriedly rushed over and pulled Cheng Lie’s finger out.

But it was already too late; blood was slowly trickling from his finger.

Yun Shifei placed the puppy back on the ground and grabbed Cheng Lie’s hand, rushing to the bathroom.

The oblivious golden retriever didn’t realize anything was wrong—it only knew no one was playing with it now.

But the tempting dog food nearby still lured it, and it wagged its little butt as it trotted toward the food bowl.

In the bathroom, Yun Shifei turned the faucet on full blast, and water poured down as she rinsed Cheng Lie’s hand.

She grabbed some soap and rubbed it onto Cheng Lie’s hand, thoroughly washing the wound inside and out.

Cheng Lie stood quietly beside her, letting Yun Shifei fuss over him.

He could sense how tense the girl was at the moment.

It was just a small bite from the puppy, yet she acted like something terribly serious had happened.

Yun Shifei genuinely thought it was serious.

Even after cleaning Cheng Lie’s wound, she still felt uneasy and said to him, "Let’s go to the hospital and get you a rabies vaccine."

If someone really contracts rabies, the fatality rate is nearly one hundred percent.

She was truly terrified of such a possibility.

Cheng Lie stared quietly at Yun Shifei, casually pulling his hand away as he said in a neutral tone, "No need."

He walked out.

Getting a rabies vaccine seemed utterly unnecessary to him.

"We should go. The puppy hasn’t been here for even a month," Yun Shifei insisted, still worried.

If something happened to him because of her, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.

Cheng Lie thought it was absolutely impossible.

After all, rabies isn’t hereditary, and this puppy—being a gift from Yun Tiancheng to Yun Shifei—must have come from a clean source.

Getting vaccinated would just be an unnecessary hassle.

But when he saw the girl’s worried expression, Cheng Lie couldn’t bring himself to refuse outright.

After a long pause, he finally said, "Alright."

If it would help Yun Shifei feel more at ease, then he’d go get the vaccine.

Hearing Cheng Lie agree, Yun Shifei breathed a sigh of relief: "Wait here. I’ll go upstairs to grab some things, then I’ll take you to the hospital."

No matter what, she was determined to take full responsibility.
