Yun Shifei had the driver from her home take Cheng Lie to the hospital. After he got the vaccine, she finally felt a bit more at ease.
Still, she couldn't help but feel a little guilty. After all, it was her assumption that Cheng Lie would get along peacefully with the puppy.
On the way back, Yun Shifei said, "Cheng Lie, don't worry. I'll definitely train it properly. When we get back, I'll cut down on her treats."
Cheng Lie didn't respond. Honestly, the puppy's bite didn't hurt much.
He barely felt anything at all.
Right now, what replayed over and over in his mind was how flustered Yun Shifei had looked when she saw him get bitten.
Perhaps what he needed was precisely that little bit of emotional comfort Yun Shifei could provide him.
His moods—his joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness—were all tied to her.
Logically, Cheng Lie knew this kind of dependency was dangerous.
But emotionally, he found himself particularly fond of it.
