Having found a demon, I've decided to raise her.

Wouldn't he be caught drooling as soon as he came out? Cerberus wasn't that stupid.

Chen Ming said helplessly—

"Don't drool on the blanket."

"I'll be careful... Oh wait, I didn't drool..."

Cerberus let it slip.

What a stupid dog.

He smiled, reached a hand under the covers, and touched her flat, soft stomach, saying—

"Aren't you hungry? Let me feel you... Oh dear, your stomach is practically empty. Let's go out and get something to eat."

"Well?"

Cerberus released his grip on the blanket and touched his stomach...

Whoosh!

Taking advantage of the moment, Chen Ming pulled back the blanket, revealing a beautiful girl with white hair and red eyes, barefoot, lying on the bed, staring at him.

He smiled and said—

"Got you?"

Chapter 255 Now that she's full, it's time to punish her.

"Owner……"

Cerberus's expression softened the moment he saw him; his red eyes lost some of their vitality, and his white hair became somewhat disheveled.

She just lay there, turning her head to look at him, almost drooling uncontrollably from the corner of her mouth.

His gaze fell on the plate that Chen Ming was holding.

Chen Ming tossed her blanket aside and looked at her as she lay face down with her bottom sticking up, her soft waist bent into a large arc, like a slide.

He smiled and reached down from her waist to her head, saying—

"Why are you hiding here? Hmm?"

"Well……"

Cerberus turned his face away and said—

"I...I'm sleeping here."

"How can you sleep on an empty stomach? Come on, get up and eat something first. I made this especially for you. Don't you love my cooking the most?"

"Ugh... I don't want to eat."

He was clearly drooling, but Cerberus acted like a child throwing a tantrum, just being stubborn.

Chen Ming really couldn't understand why, since she was usually very obedient.

He stroked her head and said—

"What happened? Can you tell me? Aren't I your master? If there's something wrong, just tell your master, and everything will be fine."

"..."

Cerberus lay there, only twitching its tail, remaining silent.

Chen Ming lowered his eyes and said—

"Are you blaming your master? Blaming me for not listening to you and stepping out of your protection? I apologize to you here. I'm sorry."

"No, that's not true!"

Cerberus sat bolt upright, his red eyes fixed on Chen Ming, biting his lower lip and murmuring—

"That's not true... It's all my fault."

“What did Cerberus do wrong? No one could have predicted that situation, and I was the one who asked you to take Yuqian back. You even left a protective array for me.”

Chen Ming just couldn't understand why Cerberus was taking on such a heavy burden when it was clearly an unexpected situation.

"If I had to say something, it's the little fish's fault. It stole something from someone else. I heard its tentacles are delicious. How about I make some for you later?"

Anyway, cutting off one or two tentacles won't cause any problems.

……

"Achoo!"

The little fish felt a chill in the soy sauce bottle.

……

Cerberus looked at him, feeling the warmth of his hand above her head... He was always so gentle, never getting angry or showing any displeasure towards her.

In his words, this dog is so adorable that he can't bear to scold her, and he's even afraid of upsetting her by speaking too harshly.

He just loves to spoil his girl and his dog like that.

She loves this kind of owner the most. Being by his side makes her mind go sluggish, and all she wants to do is snuggle in his arms and be his obedient dog.

but……

She clearly said she liked him the most, but when it mattered most, she wasn't there for him...

Cerberus bit his lower lip and said with his head down—

"Why didn't Master blame me...?"

"what?"

"You should just blame me. I told you I love Master the most, but when I got excited, I forgot to stay by Master's side. I told you I love Master the most..."

Cerberus was somewhat incoherent and didn't know what she was trying to say, but Chen Ming could hear the pain in her heart.

A mix of guilt, regret, and fear... fear that her favorite master would disappear because of her...

Chen Ming placed the plate on the bedside table, gently reached out and hugged her, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

Cerberus felt his warm embrace, and returned the embrace to his strong body, his eyes misting over, and said—

"Why don't you blame me, Master? It would be better if you blamed me..."

Sometimes, gentleness can't solve the problem or help her get over her current guilt.

Gentleness would only make her feel like she was sitting on pins and needles.

That's why she used dieting to punish herself in an attempt to alleviate her sadness.

Chen Ming understood, and smiled, saying—

“I don’t want to blame you because I like you. I don’t think you’ve done anything wrong… but I will also consider your feelings. If you feel you’ve done something wrong, then I will punish you and then turn back into the original Cerberus.”

"Owner……"

Cerberus buried her face in his chest, and in the end, it was still his tenderness; he was willing to say he would punish her to take care of her feelings.

Chen Ming patted her on the back and said—

"Alright, alright, sweetie. Eat something first, we can talk about other things later. You can't punish yourself with hunger, outsiders will think we're abusing the dog, that's not good."

"Um……"

Cerberus patted his stomach; one bowl of rice was really not enough, the dog was starving.

Chen Ming patted her head and said—

"Here, have some pancakes. I made them myself, especially for you."

"Yes, thank you, Master."

Cerberus grabbed the cookie with both hands, took a big bite, and then a happy expression appeared on his face. Sure enough, the food made by his master was the best.

Chen Ming watched her sitting on the bed eating a pancake, thought for a moment, went outside, opened the refrigerator and took out a Coke.

Uh, he suddenly remembered something...

Upon opening the refrigerator compartment below, a red-haired woman was found hidden inside, with a talisman stuck to her forehead, making her look like a zombie.

However, the zombies are actually alive, just without souls.

"..."

He reached out and touched her face; it really did resemble Lü Bu, and it wasn't frozen solid even in the refrigerator, probably because of the talisman on her forehead.

Looking into those red eyes, he murmured—

"There are more and more strange creatures in the house..."

He then closed the refrigerator door.

The refrigerator was completely dark, except for a pair of slightly whitish red eyes that were faintly glowing...

Chen Ming took out his own cup, poured a glass of cola, and handed it to Cerberus.

"You've eaten the pancakes, are you thirsty? Have some drinks."

"Ah."

Cerberus ate quickly, the sweet taste making her unable to stop. She happily drank a glass of cola and let out a sigh of relief.

Looking at her happy face, Chen Ming felt a little guilty... He scratched his cheek.

Cerberus, having eaten and drunk his fill, patted his little belly, then looked at his master and said—

"I'm already full."

That's wonderful.

Chen Ming smiled and patted her head.

Cerberus blinked and said—

"How does Master plan to punish me next?"

"Hmm... well... you'll find out in a bit. How did the pancakes taste today?"

"Mmm, it's delicious, so sweet."
