The security guard had seen Xiao Yunyun once and stubbornly believed that she was Shen Yuechuanâs girlfriend.
At that time, Shen Yuechuanâs heart had already been âpossessedâ by Xiao Yunyun, so he did not deny it.
But in the current situation... he couldnât let the uncle continue to misunderstand it.
Shen Yuechuan touched the Huskyâs head and said, âSir, I... donât have a girlfriend now.â
The smile on the security guardâs face froze, and then he was stunned.
He had never experienced the passionate and strong love between young people nowadays, but he had seen too many young couples.
Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun obviously liked each other. So he had always believed that they would be together.
However, now, it seemed that what he had expected didnât happen.
Perhaps it was destiny.
The security guard didnât dare to ask for more details. He smiled apologetically and went over to help Shen Yuechuan to press the button of the elevator.
âThank you.â
Shen Yuechuan held the Husky in his arms, carried the bag of dog food, and went upstairs.
He put the Husky on the sofa and patted its head. âYou can live here for the time being.â
Maybe it had understood Shen Yuechuanâs words, or that the soft sofa brought it too much coziness, so it wagged its thin tail.
Shen Yuechuan looked at the Husky, whose eyes had regained their luster, and suddenly felt that it was not bad to keep a pet at home.
At least, he was no longer the only living creature in the house.
He opened the bag and poured some dog food out. He put it in front of the Husky, beckoning it to eat.
The puppy seemed unaccustomed to obtaining food so easily. After probing around a bit, it discovered that what was in the front was really edible. Moreover, the taste wasnât bad, so it immediately began to enjoy the feast.
Shen Yuechuan felt that the little Huskyâs eating look was particularly funny, so he filmed it and sent the video to Xiao Yunyun.
Xiao Yunyun hadnât gone to sleep yet. After watching the video, she quickly sent a message overâ
âIt looks pretty good after the cleaning!â
Shen Yuechuan sent a proud emoji. âOf course, donât you know who took it to bathe?â
Xiao Yunyun nodded in agreement. âItâs very suitable for you to live together!â
Shen Yuechuan sent a warning emoji and asked, âWhat do you mean?â
âWell, I mean, people with good looks should live together! Anyway, everyone is pleasing to the eye!â After that, Xiao Yunyun sent a sincere emoji.
âI can give you full marks for this honest explanation.â After a pause, Shen Yuechuan asked, âItâs so late. Why havenât you slept yet?â
â...â
This time, it took Shen Yuechuan quite a while to wait for Xiao Yunyunâs reply.
When Shen Yuechuan looked at his watch for the third time, it had been only ten minutes since he sent the last message.
However, he felt as if half a century had passed by.
âThe naughty girl is alone in the apartment. Could something have happened to her?â
Shen Yuechuan dialed Xiao Yunyunâs number without thinking, but what sounded was not the familiar beep, which meant the call would be picked up soon, but the cold female alert tone.
âHello, the number you dialed is busy...â
It turned out that she was talking to someone on the phone.
Shen Yuechuan breathed a sigh of relief and put down his mobile phone. In less than five seconds, he received a message from Xiao Yunyun.
âI just received a call.â
Shen Yuechuan casually asked, âA call from the hospital?â
At this late hour, the only one he could think of who would contact Xiao Yunyun was someone from the hospital.
It took a couple of minutes for Xiao Yunyun to answer. âItâs not the hospital. Itâs Qin Han.â
Looking at the name of another man in the dialogue box, Shen Yuechuan suddenly fell silent.
Xiao Yunyun had just announced it a few hours ago. How could he forget that Xiao Yunyun had a boyfriend and that it was Qin Han?.
He sent a smile against his will. Maybe Xiao Yunyun didnât know how to reply, so she simply changed the topic.
âHave you thought of a name for the dog?â
âDoes it need a name?â
âThose question marks fully explained Shen Yuechuanâs incomprehension.â
This time, Xiao Yunyun replied quickly, âOf course! Otherwise, how would you call it in the future? Hello? Silly dog? Dog?â
Shen Yuechuan glanced at the Husky, who was eating happily behind him, and typed in the dialog box with his fingers flying. âThis Husky does look stupid.â
Xiao Yunyun: â...â
Shen Yuechuan seriously pondered for a moment and made a decision that determined the Huskyâs life. âThen letâs call it Erha!â
Xiao Yunyun sent a few speechless emojis. âIf it could understand your words, it would jump up and bite you.â
Shen Yuechuan thought for a moment and said, âErha is different from you.â
Xiao Yunyun, â...â
Shen Yuechuan was in a good mood. He walked over, squatted down, touched the Huskyâs head, and tentatively called it, âErha.â
The young Husky raised its head and rubbed itself against Shen Yuechuanâs leg as if it knew that this was its new name.
Shen Yuechuan raised his eyebrows, pressed the phone screen and began to record a short video. He called again, âErha?â
Then Erha rubbed against Shen Yuechuan with a silly look on its face.
âGood boy!â Shen Yuechuan touched the little huskyâs head with appreciation. Then he loosened his fingers, and the video was soon sent to Xiao Yunyunâs mobile phone.
Shen Yuechuan added a sentence, âErha likes its new name very much!â
Xiao Yunyun sent an emoji of regret and shook her head. âYoung dogs are just immature! I donât want to talk to you anymore. Iâm going to sleep.â
Shen Yuechuan smiled and replied, âGood night.â
The message was sent in an instant, but Shen Yuechuan stared at the two words sent by him and did not turn his eyes away for a long time.
He forgot who had said that âgoodnightâ possessed another meaning, which was âI love youâ.
In fact, it was reasonable. When facing a woman towards whom he had no feelings, he didnât even bother to say a word. How could he say âgood nightâ to her?
âBecause you love her, you hope that she can have a good morning, good afternoon, and good night.â
âYou hope that sheâll be safe and happy for the rest of her life.â
However, since there was someone else who could take care of Xiao Yunyun, he could rest assured.
Erha seemed to have sensed Shen Yuechuanâs depression. It suddenly yelled at him, âWhof!â
Shen Yuechuan came to his senses and touched Erhaâs head. âIâm going to take a shower. Tonight, you can just sleep on the sofa. Dad will prepare a very cool home for you tomorrow!â
Erha rubbed against Shen Yuechuanâs legs and squatted down, looking so obedient. Shen Yuechuan patted its head with satisfaction and went to the bathroom.
After the shower, Shen Yuechuan was drying his hair and walking out of the bathroom when the phone on the coffee table rang.
There was only a string of numbers displayed on the screen, but Shen Yuechuan knew very well who the owner of this string of numbers was.
When he answered the phone, Su Yunjinâs voice was heard almost immediately. âHas Yunyun arrived home?â
âShe has.â Shen Yuechuan sat on the sofa. âIâm at home.â
âYouâre right about one thing,â Su Yunjin said, âYunyun began to wonder why I am still here and donât plan to go back to Australia.â
Shen Yuechuan frowned. âWhatâs going on?â
âShe announced that she was dating Qin Han. When I asked her outside...â Su Yunjin told Shen Yuechuan about the conversation between her and Xiao Yunyun in the garden in detail, but there was obvious hesitation in her tone.
Shen Yuechuan didnât ignore Su Yunjinâs hesitation and asked, âWhat are you doubting about?â
Su Yunjin surely didnât dare to say that Xiao Yunyun had seemed to like Shen Yuechuan. She just said, âI suspect that Yunyun was deliberately urging me. Is it possible that she has found out that you are her brother?â
Shen Yuechuan didnât hesitate for even half a second and directly said, âItâs impossible.â
âWhy are you so sure?â Su Yunjin asked.
âWhen I sent her back to her apartment, I picked up a stray dog downstairs. She said that you were allergic to animal hair and asked me to raise it. If she had known that I was her brother, she would guess that you might come to my house. Then it would be impossible for her to ask me to bring the stray dog back.â
That was what Shen Yuechuan had just confirmedâXiao Yunyun didnât know that they were related by blood.
However, even though she didnât know they were related by blood, she still chose Qin Han. This showed that... she really did not like Shen Yuechuan.
In this way, he could rest assured.
Su Yunjin thought about it and found Shen Yuechuanâs words reasonable. Xiao Yunyun was such a careful child. If she had known that Su Yunjin was Shen Yuechuanâs mother, how could she let Shen Yuechuan take a stray dog home?
She pondered for a moment and asked, âYuechuan, I want to...â
âCheck it out first.â Shen Yuechuan interrupted Su Yunjin. âAnyway, I donât want my illness to be exposed at this time.â
âOkay,â Su Yunjin said, âIn fact, as long as Yicheng and Jianâan donât know the cause of your fatherâs death, your secret could be hidden for a while.â
âIn addition, you can try to reveal it to Yunyun,â Shen Yuechuan said, âor she may not be able to accept it when you announce it to the public.â
âI know,â Su Yunjin said, âItâs getting late. Have a rest.â
After a while, Shen Yuechuan said stiffly, âYou should go to bed early too.â
After that, he hung up the phone and sat back on the sofa. A wave of silence and despondency replaced his original calmness.
He had known this day would come sooner or later.
At this time, it was neither too early nor too late, just in time.
There was already someone to take care of Xiao Yunyun. So, exposing their relationship wouldnât affect Xiao Yunyun in any way, and it could force him to give up.
In this way, all thoughts were cut off. Although it was a little painful, as the old saying went, short pain is far better than long pain.
Since it was destined that there would be no result between them, why waste time?
Shen Yuechuan leaned back and sank into the sofa.
Perhaps it was because he was in a low mood; he suddenly felt that something was overwhelming him. The violent rotation was getting closer and closer, and it seemed that he would be suffocated in the next second.
However, what came before the pressure was a familiar feeling of dizziness.
He felt as if he had fallen into a whirlpool that kept rotating. He could only continue spinning and falling into the vortex.
He couldnât save himself, and no one could save him...
After a long while, Shen Yuechuan finally came to his senses from the dizziness. It was not because he was depressed.
But because of his illness.
Before, he had lost control of the steering wheel and hit the roadside when he was downstairs of Xiao Yunyunâs apartment because of the sudden symptoms of his illness.
In less than two hours, he fell ill again.
This was the first time he had had experienced the pain and dizziness attack twice in such a short time.
After more than ten minutes, Shen Yuechuan finally recovered, but he didnât relax his eyebrowsâ
Had his condition worsened?
