Not a god

Chapter 230 Little Chicken Feathers

My family also keeps several dogs back home, to guard the house and property.

Those dogs were bullies who preyed on the weak. They knew Chen Xi wasn't afraid of them, so they wouldn't bother him. But Jiang Wanwan was in a terrible situation. Those dogs deliberately scared her for fun. When she was little, she often had two big bags of tears on her face as she was chased all over the yard by those dogs.

At that time, they had just been brought back to their hometown from the city. Jiang Wanwan was unfamiliar with the place and got lost once. In the evening, almost the whole village helped to look for her. She walked along the mountain road, crying as she went, and almost reached the next village. In the end, she was found by a few dogs and they chased her back.

Later, although Jiang Wanwan was no longer afraid of them, she would still be chased by a few dogs, or they would suddenly rush out and scare her, and then she would quickly run away.

There's no reason why, I'm just being a jerk.

Last year when I went back to my hometown for the Spring Festival, several dogs surrounded Yiyi, but they didn't chase after Jiang Wanwan anymore, because those dogs were all born a few years ago, and the ones that were puppies had long since died of old age.

"It really brings back memories," Chen Xi sighed, watching the little golden retriever interact with Yi Yi, and recalling the dogs and Jiang Wanwan from her hometown more than ten years ago.

Nowadays, people are divided into cat lovers and dog lovers, and he is a typical dog lover. He thinks cats are too aloof, just like him, and he doesn't like them. He still prefers dogs that are energetic all day long, just like he likes Jiang Wanwan.

This little golden retriever seems to have really taken a liking to them, circling around Xiao Yiyi as if it wants to go home with her. They waited for a while, but no one came to claim it, so it didn't seem like it was kept by the park itself.

Chen Xi squatted down beside it, reached out to scratch its chin, and checked for fleas or any other diseases.

"If Yiyi really wants to keep a dog, she should name it."

"It looks to be less than a year old, still a puppy, probably born from a stray dog."

"Is it male or female? Let me see... It's a little female dog."

Why are you glaring at me?

Chen Xi found it strange, so she shook the egg waffle in her hand, and the little golden retriever wagged its tail and came over begging for food.

She's a gluttonous little one, just like Yiyi.

He smiled and broke off pieces of egg waffles from his hand, feeding them to the child.

After waiting outside for about twenty minutes, the girls came out of the flying movie theater. Bai Jiangyan was still carrying a bucket of popcorn, and the group chatted and laughed.

"That was so beautiful..."

"I was startled when the chair moved!"

"The naked-eye 3D technology these days is really impressive."

Wow! It's a puppy!

When Douzi saw the little golden retriever from afar, her eyes lit up and she trotted over.

Yiyi quickly introduced Douzi to her new friend.

Chen Yan also joined them, and the three of them and the dog started circling around, as if they were having a very happy time.

Children's joys are truly simple.

Chen Yan took the popcorn from Jiang Yan's hand and threw it to the little golden retriever, who jumped up and caught it.

Jiang Wanwan walked over, also looking puzzled: "Brother, where did you get this little golden retriever?"

And for some reason, this dog always gave her a strange feeling.

"It's probably a stray puppy that's been following us. Yiyi really likes it, and I'm wondering if we should take it home and raise it."

"Will you take it home to raise?"

"You can keep them in the shop."

Chen Xi looked at them and said, "Didn't we say that once the second floor is finished, we'd redecorate it and turn it into a book cafe, and the first floor into a cat cafe?"

Although this design makes the store bigger, it actually reduces the number of seats for reception. But this is what Chen Xi wanted. After all, the original intention of opening a coffee shop was just to give Jiang Wanwan something to do. Now that Tianfu Square has too much foot traffic and business is too good, it wouldn't be good to tire out this weak little good-for-nothing.

Jiang Wanwan raised an objection: "Can you keep dogs in a cat cafe?" "There are also cat cafes that keep alpacas and deer. Didn't I see them when I went to Shanghai last time?"

"Yeah!"

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Do you remember when you were little, you were chased by those dogs from your hometown every day?"

"No way! I just chose not to argue with them!"

After saying that, Jiang Wanwan pinched her chin and looked at the little golden retriever, still feeling a bit strange.

Just as she was about to take a closer look, Jiang Xiaowan said, "Since brother likes her quite a bit, let's take her back and raise her."

"..."

As expected of foolish humans, they were so captivated by the cuteness of the great Yellow-Eared Goddess that they actually thought they could raise her, when in fact it was just her playing around with human life.

The little golden retriever looked up at the woman who had said she would take her home to raise, only to find that the woman was also looking down at her.

The person looked exactly like the girl next to her; they must be twin sisters. However, the girl's expression was unusually calm, but this serene and indifferent face gave her an inexplicable chill.

In an instant, Huang Er Niangniang had a feeling that she was no longer a little golden retriever, but her human self, lying on the ground wagging her tail in public.

As the dog's joy receded like the tide, a suffocating sense of shame, stemming from her personal dignity and current predicament, suffocated her like a python coiling around her, leaving her in a cold sweat.

But in an instant, she felt it was impossible.

Although she is only at the second level now, she still has the rank of Great Luo Heaven. To see through her human body and soul, one would have to use the strength of a Great Luo Heaven!
Suddenly, I was startled again.

When she looked up again, she saw it had circled around once.

That feeling of being seen through wasn't just felt by the expressionless girl, but also by her twin sister, the incredibly long-legged young woman next to her, and the little girl next to her who was smiling and feeding herself popcorn.

She felt relieved.

It was indeed an illusion.

A group of gods? How could that be? What are you thinking?

"Little chick!"

The little girl, who looked about five or six years old, shouted at her and threw popcorn into the air.

She quickly jumped up and caught it successfully.

good to eat!

Although this era was somewhat terrible, when it came to food, it far surpassed the previous dynasties.

However, at that moment, her ears twitched, and she suddenly realized something. She tucked her tail under her buttocks and her body trembled.

A group of Shepherds appeared in their line of sight, and Chen Xi had already noticed their presence.

The surrounding crowd began to stir. The shepherds were about to calm the tourists and drive them away when they realized that the tourists, who had been perfectly calm just a moment ago, seemed to have collectively looked confused the next second. They then went about their business as if nothing had happened, completely oblivious to the tourists' presence.

Only one little dog, its tail between its legs, trembled in the crowd, thinking, "This is it."

Their presence here means that Lady Sanhua and her companions have failed.

How are my sisters doing now? Have they all been reincarnated? Or have they been sealed away?

These cruel, inhuman, and brutal people... She was just a poor repair dog. What would happen to her if she were captured by them? She didn't even dare to think about it.

But the next second, things seemed to take a turn for the better. Her new owner—no, her new servant—remained calm and composed in the face of these brutal minions, speaking gently:
"Oh, it's Comrade Xiao Ye. Are you here on a mission?"
