The Puppy Won't Behave

[The main story is complete, so come on in!]

The first thing Zhong Yi did after returning to China was visit the benefactor who had rescued her from the scene of a car accident.

But she soon learned that her benefactor had passed away. When she arrived, she happened to catch his son being accused by relatives of stealing money and thrown out of the house.

That was the first time Zhong Yi met Yan Shuchi.

At eighteen, the young man was strikingly handsome and cool, tall and straight as bamboo, with a stubborn gaze that was both defiant and resilient.

He reminded Zhong Yi of how lost and helpless she had felt after losing her parents.

Her heart softened, and she took in the boy, who had nowhere else to go.

They lived under the same roof. They went from strangers to relying on each other, and Zhong Yi felt she had found family again. She was quite happy with that.

But at some point, she began to feel that the way her little brother looked at her... was getting more and more peculiar.

Then one night, Zhong Yi had just arrived at the cinema with her blind date when Yan Shuchi cornered her by the restroom and kissed her passionately.

His lingering kisses traveled from her lips to the tip of her ear. “Sis, what does that guy out there have that I don’t?”

“Is he more considerate than me? Does he love you more than I do? Is he more loyal?”

Zhong Yi: “You’re insane!”

Yan Shuchi wiped the moisture from the corner of his mouth and smiled. “If going crazy is what it takes to earn a chance to love you, then you can just consider me crazy.”

Blurb: A know-it-all showed up in the middle of the night at Xu Qing's rural animal clinic.

He drove a luxury car, wore designer clothes, and carried a pedigree golden retriever that cost more than Xu Qing's bride price.

As soon as he walked in, he gave Xu Qing and her clinic a disdainful once-over.

“You call this dump a clinic?”

Xu Qing was already in a foul mood. She snapped back, “If someone like you can call himself a person, why can't my place be called a clinic? If you want treatment, stay. If not, get lost.”

Tan Yang had never been talked to like that in his life.

Especially not by some country bumpkin!

If his beloved dog hadn't fallen seriously ill during their road trip, and if he hadn't been able to find a single pet hospital still open, Tan Yang would never have come to a shabby place like this to be insulted.

But for his dog's sake, Tan Yang swallowed his anger and decided to settle the score with the bumpkin once the dog recovered.

But as he kept tallying things up... damn it, somehow he'd ended up counting himself in.

Theme: No matter what happens, keep living with strength.
