Chapter 244: What to Do?
I chose the most expensive pot of flowers at home!
The flower is called "Mòbǎo", and among this bunch it's the most expensive pot, worth several hundred thousand. It was the one her dad brought out this morning to show off to Uncle Ye next door.
This morning, to show off to Uncle Ye next door, her dad shamelessly took an iron rod and jabbed the dog's kennel, forcing the dog awake!
The dog, seeing her dad holding the iron rod, tucked its tail and went to complain to its owner.
Then came a triple‑layered scolding of the two people and the dog!
In the end, her dad was pulled away by her mother by the ear, and the flower was forgotten and not moved back to the flower room.
Tang Tang thought, if her dad knew Can Can wanted to pick the flower, he would regret having shown it off so early, right?
"Do you really want that flower?"
Tang Tang fought for her dad to secure the fate of his beloved flower!
Tang Can tilted her head in confusion, "Is it not allowed?"
"It's allowed, but your grandfather loves it!"
That was the one he snatched from Uncle Ye! If Uncle Ye had enough money on hand then, the flower would never have gone to her dad!
Perhaps because of this odd fate, her dad especially loved to flaunt the flower, posting pictures in the group where Uncle Ye was, tagging Uncle Ye to get his comment.
"Why display something you like? Shouldn't it stay in the flower room?"
Tang Can remembered her grandfather telling her that the garden flowers are unimportant; the important ones are already placed in the flower room. She wanted this flower because among the unimportant ones, it was the most eye‑catching and beautiful!
"Because your grandfather wants to show off."
Tang Can suddenly found her grandfather's liking peculiar, "Then I don't want grandpa's approval. If he takes me out to show off in the dead of winter, I'll get sick!"
Ji Yan, listening nearby, twitched the corner of her mouth, "With your teaching method, it'd be strange if no problems arose."
Even scarier, her daughter also nodded!
"Can Can, you can rest assured, the flower can't speak, can't refuse your grandfather, and will just wait to die in winter, but you can speak!"
Tang Can nodded seriously, "Right, I can refuse! I don't want to freeze to death!"
Tang Tang's phone vibrated, "Great, Huo Huo is coming, let's go pick her up!"
A savior!
"Alright!"
Su Yu grabbed Tang Can's hand and ran outside. Tang Tang waved, having a nearby servant cover a cloth to block the neighboring dog's view, and took the flower back to the flower room.
Su Yu and Tang Can saw the familiar figure and shouted in unison, "Huo Huo!"
"Little sister Xiao Yu! Can Can!"
Su Yu and Tang Can hugged Liang Yan. The three plump dumplings gathered together, delighted!
"Huo Huo, do you want to play with the cat?"
Tang Can picked up the cat at her feet, intending to hand it to Liang Yan.
Liang Yan stepped back, "No, thank you, Can Can!"
"What's wrong? The cat is cute!"
"Mm, I know."
Liang Yan, with a somewhat heavy expression, recounted this morning's events; she was very angry, "We were both questioned by a police officer at the community clinic, and that officer blamed my dad for provoking his dog!"
Clearly it was that officer's dog that bit him and scared her dad, so why did it end up being her family's fault?
"How was it resolved afterward?"
【Is there a mad dog around, can the residents feel safe?】
Su Yu spoke while ushering Liang Yan inside.
"The officer firmly believed it was my dad's fault. He ignored the surveillance, only knowing my dad scared his dog, causing it to bite! The property manager called other staff, and at everyone's request, the dog was taken away by the police officer."
Liang Yan was not happy when she got to that point.
Su Yu removed her heavy coat inside and sat on a thick blanket.
"What else happened afterward?"
Tang Can was also curious; after hearing Liang Yan's account, the stupid dog next door seemed especially friendly—it barks a lot but doesn't bite!
"That officer was angry and wanted to fight my dad and the police officer! Then the property manager told the police officer that a handsome brother had also been bitten by the dog. At that time, the surveillance was broken, and the dog had an injury. That officer insisted that the handsome brother attacked the dog, causing it to bite him!"
Liang Yan was terrified when she saw the injury on that handsome brother!
If dad were bitten like that, it would hurt so much!
"After the police officer learned of this, he contacted that brother, who said he was out for a morning run when the mad dog and its owner bit him! That officer is terrible! The police officer said the brother is suspected of intentional injury and will be investigated!"
【It's been so long; probably hard to get any evidence!】
"This matter no longer concerns your family; why are you still not happy?"
Tang Can saw Liang Yan's sullen face and wasn't very happy either.
"Should I send the dog to be raised elsewhere?"
Liang Yan was really conflicted; the dog had been with her for a long time, but dad was also important. Dad and mom seemed heart‑broken by the dog, not even glancing at it, let alone playing with it. Liang Yan feared her dog might bite like that biting dog.
"Is your dad okay?"
Tang Can thought that calling the police meant it was serious.
"It's fine; it just scared my dad, and he wouldn't get out of the car to come in with me!"
【Hmm, I think maybe coming in isn't quite appropriate either.】
Zhu Xueheng came in, what did he chat about with Tang Tang and Ji Yan? Rather than awkward talk, they'd rather stay in the car.
【Host, don't you think this story feels familiar?】
【Has it happened in the plot before?】
【It's like the heroine's rise to fame as a stepping stone; when the heroine appears in the public eye, she's both clever and brave, using her frail body to bring the vicious dog and its owner to justice! This contrast gives her massive traffic, catapulting her to a million‑follower internet star and laying a solid foundation for her later entertainment career! In that story, there's also a handsome guy who, while on a morning run, was bitten by the vicious dog, and because the surveillance was broken, he was falsely blamed!】
But she has already returned to the Jiang Family, so this part of the story couldn't happen.
Right, so we shouldn't rely too much on the plot from now on.
The storyline collapsed before it even officially began!
Alright!
Tang Can saw that on the sofa there were only aunt and soft mother Aunt Ji, no Aunt Liang, and asked, "Huo Huo, where's your mother?"
"Mom went to work overtime! A lot of things at the company need Mom to decide, she's very busy!"
Liang Yan knew that dad had to take care of her, and Mom ran the company alone, so she would be very busy. Therefore Mom's absence didn't make her angry; she even explained it to the two little friends.
"Alright! Do you want to pet the cat? Petting the cat will lift your mood! We played for a long time this morning!"
Recalling Liang Yan's morning experience, Tang Can added, "Our cat never bites people!"
Tang Can took two dried small fish from a nearby cabinet and gave them to Liang Yan to feed the cat.
Liang Yan looked at the cat rubbing against her pant leg and gave one fish to the cat.
"Little sister Xiao Yu, Can Can, what do you think I should do? I don't want to keep the dog at home anymore."
Good night, darlings~
