Chen Yuan drove himself today and went to the parking lot with Su Nianian. As soon as they arrived, they heard a faint cry of a small animal.

  The sound was very faint, intermittent, and Su Niannian looked around for the source of the sound. A small yellow dog lay on the ground, its fur dirty and matted, one leg twisted at an unnatural angle, and it was making the cries that came from its mouth.

  In front of it, a young man was squatting.

  Su Nian was taken aback, wasn't that Gu Zi Chen?

  His face still had that indifferent and distant expression, holding a mineral water bottle to feed the dog water, with a piece of San Yin Zhi gnawed at his feet.

  The sunset slanted down, and the evening glow on the horizon cast a warm red hue over him, enveloping his body in a gentle warmth.

  Su was stunned by what he saw year after year.

  In her impression, Gu Zichen would never do such a thing. When he saw this stray dog, he should have been avoiding it in fear, not feeding the little dog so seriously like now.

  More and more people gathered in the parking lot, and many of them discovered Gu Zichen, exclaiming and gathering around to observe him up close. Several young girls even took out their phones and snapped photos non-stop.

  Gu Zi Chen furrowed his good-looking eyebrows, clearly not liking being surrounded and stared at.

  He patted the little dog's head, stood up, and the cold aura emanating from his body made the people around him retreat a few steps.

  "Are you guys free?" The cool tone reached everyone's ears.

  "Cough cough... Oh dear, let's hurry up, or Gu Nan will get angry." A girl with a keen sense of awareness hastily beckoned to everyone, and the onlookers tactfully dispersed.

  Su Niannian walked forward, Chen Yuan followed behind her, and walked to Gu Zichen's side.

  On closer inspection, it was discovered that the little dog's body was not only covered with dust and fallen leaves, but also had spots of blood.

  Chen Yuan said in a low voice: "Is it that animal-abusing psycho again? What a scumbag!"

  Gu Zi Chen nodded and said "uh-huh".

  "What are you talking about?"

  Chen Yuan explained to her: "There's a man in the nearby neighborhood who is not quite right in the head, and he loves to torture stray dogs. It's already happened more than once, but nobody can do anything about it."

  "This scum of a person..."

  Gu Zichen shrugged and turned around to leave. Su Nianian hastily called out to him, "Hey, you're just leaving like that?"

  Gu Zichen stopped in his tracks, Su Nian still chattering away behind him: "At a time like this, shouldn't we send it to the pet rescue station? If the two of us hadn't come, and no one else had discovered it, would you just let the dog fend for itself? You heartless, expressionless face..."

  Gu Zi Chen turned around, his face as black as coal: "Finished speaking?"

  "Ah...... yeah......" Su Nian nodded, feeling like something was off somewhere.

  As expected, when she saw Gu Zichen open the trunk of the car and pull out a clean box from inside, then pick up the little dog on the ground and put it in, she felt extremely embarrassed.

  "It's injured and holding it bare-handed may cause secondary injury." Gu Zi Chen explained calmly.

  Pfft...

  It turned out she was going to get a box... She thought Gu Zichen would just leave.

  It's too embarrassing, Su Niannian shrank behind Chen Yuan.

  Chen Yuan couldn't help but smile wryly, "Alright, you two stop arguing, I'll let you take care of the puppy, Nian Nian, we're heading home first."

  "Good!" Su Nian nodded repeatedly and followed Chen Yuan in a hurry.

  Gu Zichen sighed and watched Su Nianian's figure running faster than a rabbit, her eyes gradually becoming gentle.
