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

"Now."

Lucifer nodded.

Chen Ming blinked, glanced in the direction of the changing room, and said—

"Then you guys keep an eye on Dongyi for a while, I'll be right back."

As he spoke, he took the opportunity to pat the landlady on the head.

Even such an action is going too far.

It's irresponsible to flirt with others.

The landlady sighed and said—

"This is so unfair... Miss Lucifer, do you like Chen Ming?"

"I……"

Lucifer didn't know how to answer; such a serious occasion didn't seem suitable for a casual, perfunctory response.

The landlady didn't press for answers. She took a deep breath and said firmly, her eyes unwavering.

"If you still don't like it, then I've liked it even before you have. I won't run away, Miss Lucifer..."

"……I see."

This was the only response Lucifer could give.

I feel a little lost.

Chapter 34 Cute Dog

The deeply sinful man is leisurely buying milk tea for everyone.

He himself also likes to drink milk tea and knows very well the taste of the shops in the vicinity, even though the landlady impulsively mentioned the most expensive shop.

But to be honest, it doesn't taste good. It even tastes a bit bland, like winter melon tea, not sweet enough.

He often went out with his landlady and knew which restaurants she liked; indeed, the sweetest was always the best. As for things like flavor, neither he nor his landlady thought there was anything particularly praiseworthy about them.

It has to be sweet!

As long as you give out candy, you'll get votes.

Chen Ming himself is also a reader and often uses similar methods to interact with authors.

He walked steadily across the street.

The sky was slightly overcast; the weather has been like this lately, gloomy and overcast. There seems to be a typhoon warning, meaning heavy rain is coming.

Well, it's good that it's been 30 degrees Celsius or higher all day, it's really scorching hot.

Chen Ming passed by a Honey Ice Cream shop, but he didn't really think the ice cream there was good. He had never tried ice cream before, and he didn't like it.

But the price is indeed low, and the landlady is a frequent customer.

Should we bring her an ice cream?

Never mind, let's have some milk tea first.

He continued walking forward...

"Forehead……"

His gaze slowly moved downwards and he saw a furry animal blocking his way.

It's a white dog.

It had pointed ears, a thin face, and two large, bright, dark red eyes that looked up at Chen Ming.

It even opened its mouth and stuck out its tongue, while its little tail on its bottom stuck up and shook vigorously.

Chen Ming narrowed his eyes slightly.

To be honest, he doesn't like dogs, and even dislikes them somewhat.

First of all, I was a little scared. Even though I'm a tough guy, who wouldn't worry about being bitten by a dog? People can bite for no reason, let alone dogs.

Then there's more online, and I'm not impressed by the behavior of some "dog lovers".

Although he could understand the feelings of dog owners, his grandmother's family used to have a majestic wolfhound, which he and his sister loved very much and which was very intelligent.

It will come running from afar if you call its name or smell its scent. When people go to the next town for fun, it can follow them for dozens of miles and even catch up with motorcycles.

I'd kept it for a long time, but then it disappeared; maybe it was stolen.

I was heartbroken for a long time.

Chen Ming sighed, walked around the fluffy little dog, and left. It's best not to touch stray dogs without a collar.

It looks quite clean.

He walked straight into the milk tea shop next door. The staff there, seeing a regular customer, smiled and said—

"Is Mr. Chen not opening his shop today?"

"Open it if you want, but not today."

What do you want?

"Four cups of pudding milk tea, please."

He didn't know what Dongyi liked, but he and the landlady preferred pudding milk tea, and Lucifer didn't seem to dislike it when they drank it together last time.

Perhaps I should buy her some different flavors to try? He rested his chin on his hand.

"Oh, what an adorable puppy..."

He heard the voices of several girls behind him. He turned around and saw several fashionable girls in short skirts bending down to pick up the puppy from the ground.

"Wang?"

It was slowly walking over with its tongue lolling out when it was suddenly picked up. Chen Ming could see a hint of distress in its eyes.

Its four little legs twitched slightly, but to no avail. Instead, it made the girls laugh and kept stroking its head.

"The puppy is so cute, and it looks very clean."

"But it doesn't have a collar, does that mean it doesn't have an owner?"

"Stray dogs wouldn't have such clean and shiny fur, would they?"

"Another owner who doesn't put a collar on their dog? They'll be in big trouble if the government arrests them."

Then they started criticizing dog owners who didn't raise their dogs properly. Chen Ming found it quite satisfying to listen to, since he wasn't a dog owner anyway, and he wanted to say a few words too.

Raise your dog responsibly and be an honest person. If you do so many things that damage your character, to the point where you can't distinguish between humans and dogs, don't blame others for criticizing you.

He looked at the puppy, wondering if it had been staring at him the whole time.

Its big, round eyes actually looked kind of cute, and he had the urge to pet its head, since it seemed quite well-behaved.

However, now that he was in the arms of a beautiful woman, he felt embarrassed to reach out to her; that would seem like being a pervert.

At this moment, the shop assistant said—

"Mr. Chen, it's done."

"Yes, the money has been paid."

He showed her his phone, then took the four milk teas and prepared to leave.

"Wang!"

The puppy was being pampered by several beautiful women and couldn't get away. Seeing Chen Ming walk out with the drinks, it became anxious and struggled to get away.

Clang.

The milk tea on the table was spilled, splashing several beautiful women all over them.

"ah!"

"Doggy, what are you doing?"

"Bad dog!"

They awkwardly wiped the puppy with tissues, and the puppy took the opportunity to escape from their hands, standing on the ground and shaking off its ruffled fur.

"Wang."

He called out and quickly chased after her with his little legs.

Several beautiful women watched this unfold and frowned.

"So that was that person's dog?"

"They actually remained silent."

"He's probably afraid we'll scold him, huh."

If Chen Ming knew about the cursing and swearing, he would definitely cry foul.

Chen Ming is now slowly walking back.

"Wang!"

The little dog, panting and wagging its tail, followed him, staying close to his feet and circling him from time to time, its dark red eyes fixed on him.

"...What's going on?"

Chen Ming was completely bewildered. Why was this dog bothering him?

He stopped, and the dog also stopped walking.

He moved forward, and the dog followed, its little legs swaying as it went.

Is this a case of them clinging to me?

He twitched his lips. He hadn't offered to feed it, so why was it clinging to him? He watched as the dog sniffed at his leg and rubbed its little head against his leg.

He scratched his chin, seemingly understanding something? He said—

"sit down."

The dog sat down, looking happy that it had finally paid attention to me.
