Chapter 66: Has really become a dog chain...

  As soon as Zhao Yang opened the door and returned home, he suddenly heard a burst of childish barking.

  Woof woof woof!

  Zhao Yang was taken aback, turned his head to look, and saw a pet dog that was only slightly larger than the palm of his hand running over with its butt up, its four thin little legs trotting along. The pet dog's neck was also wearing a small, exquisite leather collar.

  "You're back so early? Aren't you going to continue with that Qing Lan's whatever-it-is?"

  Lin Xueqi was wearing a floral nightgown and dragging a pair of cartoon character slippers, "dododo" ran over, squatted down and picked up the pet dog on the ground, looked at Zhao Yang who had just opened the door, wrinkled her nose, and said with a slightly sour tone.

  "Huh... when did you bring back this pet dog?" Zhao Yang didn't respond to Lin Xueqi's words, but instead stared at the little dog in her arms in surprise.

  "Hmph, mind your own business! Go and care about your Qing Lan instead." Lin Xueqi let out a heavy hum, turned her face away, and sat down on the sofa with her pet dog, ignoring Zhao Yang.

  Zhao Yang was taken aback, gave Lin Xueqi a strange look, closed the door with one hand, and then walked over to sit down beside her. He stretched out a finger to tease the little dog that was lying in the crook of Lin Xueqi's arm, and looked at her saying: "How did you suddenly think of raising a pet dog?"

  "Just want to raise it then raise it, can't I?" Lin Xueqi hummed, still with a straight face and an expression that said she was very displeased.

  Zhao Yang smiled slightly, vaguely understanding what was going on. However, during his more than 500 years of cultivation in the "Local Immortal Land", he had long been accustomed to doing as he pleased. Even now that he had returned to Earth, he was still unwilling to be bound by so-called worldly etiquette. After all, in Zhao Yang's heart, his own extremely long future path was destined to transcend the mundane. Not to mention that he must cultivate into an immortal, but when his cultivation reached a certain level, the worldly shackles would also have little significance for him.

  Although Lin Xueqi turned her face away, pretending to ignore Zhao Yang, the corner of her eye was still paying attention to him. Seeing that he was still smiling and teasing the dog in her arms, she suddenly became angry.

  "You're still smiling! Don't smile!" Lin Xueqi tossed the dog to the other side of the sofa and turned around, staring at Zhao Yang.

  Seeing this, Zhao Yang had no choice but to raise his hands repeatedly and say: "Alright, alright, I won't laugh, I won't laugh, is that okay?"

  After that, Zhao Yang saw Lin Xueqi's face slightly better and said: "Xueqi, what's wrong with this? Who offended you? Tell me, I'll help you teach him a lesson!"

  "You! You've gone and annoyed me!" Lin Xueqi shouted, her small mouth pouting, with a hint of faint grievance in her voice that was almost imperceptible if one wasn't paying close attention.

  "What did I do? I just got back, how could I have bothered you?" Zhao Yang cried out with a wronged expression.

  Lin Xueqi's nose twitched, "It was you who provoked me!"

  "Alright, I'll be the one then." Zhao Yang rubbed his nose and said: "Since it was me who annoyed Xue Qi, how about I go buy some delicious food later and make a sumptuous dinner to properly apologize to Xue Qi?"

  "Hmm, you said it yourself. I want to eat the sugar and vinegar ribs you made last time, as well as hairy crabs, foie gras, and a refreshing dried tangerine peel soup... that's all for now..."

  Lin Xueqi lightly bit her lip and counted on her fingers.

  "Alright! No problem, I've got it covered!" Zhao Yang hurriedly patted his chest in guarantee.

  "Hmmph!" Lin Xueqi snorted softly and continued, "Also, you have to accompany me to a social engagement tonight."

  "What banquet? What banquet?" Zhao Yang was taken aback.

  Lin Xueqi pouted and said, "It's not like I wanted to go out tonight, but people in our class were calling me to hang out together. That annoying guy we met at the milk tea shop when I took you to register for school is also going, so I thought of asking you to come with me tonight, otherwise he'll bother me again."

  As Lin Xueqi said that, Zhao Yang also remembered the man they met at the milk tea shop that day. Lin Xueqi had told him about it before, that the man was notorious for being a playboy in H University, and his family seemed to be quite wealthy, changing girlfriends every semester. The guy had been chasing Lin Xueqi since her freshman year, but unfortunately, Lin Xueqi didn't care about him at all, even showing disgust, never giving him a good face.

  "Alright! No problem. What time should we go? I'll take a look and go buy some groceries back to cook for dinner." Zhao Yang nodded in agreement.

  "Uh-huh." Lin Xueqi nodded, "We agreed to meet at 8 pm near the 'Huangjia Entertainment City' by H University."

  "It's eight o'clock? Then I'll go buy some vegetables." Zhao Yang said.

  "Alright, remember all those dishes I mentioned earlier? Not a single one can be left out!"

  "Don't worry!"

  Just like that, Zhao Yang, who had just returned home and hadn't even warmed his butt, ran downstairs with a "thud thud thud" to buy vegetables at the nearby vegetable market. The vegetables at the market were relatively fresher, and normally if he wasn't buying a lot of things, Zhao Yang wouldn't go to the supermarket.

  It was just five o'clock when Zhao Yang went out to buy vegetables and came back.

  "Back so soon?" Lin Xueqi also showed a hint of surprise at Zhao Yang's speed.

  "How much longer are you going to dawdle buying vegetables? Come and help me wash them quickly!" Zhao Yang said, lifting a bunch of vegetables and heading towards the kitchen.

  But Zhao Yang had only taken two steps when he suddenly stopped, looking at Lin Xueqi with a strange expression: "Xueqi, you're not really planning to use that chain to tie up the dog, are you?"

  At this moment, Lin Xueqi was holding the gold chain that was almost as thick as a small finger, which she had 'extorted' from Zhao Yang's hands, and buckled it onto the pet dog's leather collar.

  Upon hearing this, Lin Xueqi raised her head and smiled at Zhao Yang: "Yes! Originally, I was bored today and saw this chain, so I thought of running to the pet store to buy a dog back."

  "How about it, isn't my 'Vivi' beautiful?" Lin Xueqi held one end of the golden chain and swayed it lightly with a smile on her face.

  "Uh..." Zhao Yang couldn't help but be speechless. "If you really dare to use this chain to take a dog out for a walk, I guarantee that within three days you'll definitely get robbed!"

  "Get out, crow's mouth!" Lin Xueqi glared at him, "I'm just playing with it at home, do you think I'm stupid? If I really take this chain to walk the dog, isn't that telling those thieves 'people are foolish and rich', come and rob me! I'm not that stupid, I understand the principle of not showing off one's wealth. Besides, this chain is so short, it's not convenient to take it out for a walk even if I wanted to!"

  Zhao Yang shrugged his shoulders, "You know it's fine."

  "Alright, come over and cook rice, then help me wash vegetables!" Zhao Yang carried things towards the kitchen.

  "Ah, here we go!" Lin Xueqi also put down the dog in her hand and followed Zhao Yang into the kitchen with a 'thud thud' sound of her slippers...
