Chapter 286 - She had a suspicion that Liu Dongchang was behind all this but she couldn’t prove it. (4)

Tong Xuelu squatted down and gave them both a kiss on their cheeks.

Tong Mianmian was already used to it but Xiao Jiu was so shy that she covered up his little face with his hands after the kiss.

He was so incredibly cute.

Then, the third puppy came over to join in the fun.

Mooncake came over barking. It had grown a lot since its arrival at the family.

Tong Xuelu had paid it some attention. She felt that at the rate the Mooncake had “expanded”, it would probably grow into a large dog.

Mooncake rushed up and coquettishly pawed Tong Xuelu’s leg. Tong Mianmian had stepped on Mooncake inadvertently.

Mooncake let out a loud whimpering sound.

Tong Xuelu quickly squatted down to check it out.

The little thing was very aggrieved. It looked at Tong Xuelu with its limpid eyes and whimpered some more.

Tong Xuelu felt that it would be no big deal being stepped on by Tong Mianmian as she was still a small child. Lo and behold, Mooncake was crippled!

Yes, crippled!

It was limping and would whimpered time and again. It looked very pitiful.

Tong Xuelu hadn’t expected it to be so serious. There was no veterinarian clinics back then and Tong Xuelu had no idea what she could do if Mooncake was seriously injured.

Tong Mianmian knew that she had done something wrong again and even ate less rice than she normally would. She hugged Mooncake and apologized to her incessantly.

To comfort Mooncake, Tong Xuelu even made some snacks just for her.

Mooncake had suddenly turned into the center of attention.

By dinner time, Mooncake ran inside the house and looked as though it wanted to spend the night inside.

Tong Xuelu never let it go inside the bedroom in the past. She liked animals but she also didn’t want dog hair all over the place.

Mooncake, however, was injured now. Seeing how pitiful it looked, Tong Xuelu felt that it would be okay for her to spend one night indoor.

Right when she was about to pull out Mooncake’s dog bed, she noticed that something was off.

Staring at Mooncake who was running around in circles under the bed, she was baffled. “Mooncake, your left foot was the limping one earlier. How come it’s the right foot now?”

As soon as she had said that, Mooncake, who was spinning around, paused a little and stopped spinning.

Mooncake whimpered, plopped down on the floor, and looked up at Tong Xuelu, as though knowing that it was caught red handed.

Tong Xuelu was so angry that she almost busted out laughing. Where did this acting dog come from?

Ever since Zhong Shulan had been gently “let down” by Wen Rugui, she had been unhappy.

It wasn’t so much that she must have Wen Rugui as her son-in-law, it was more that she didn’t know how to break it to her daughter.

Just like now, her daughter was making hot sauce with a very happy smile on her as she said that she would be giving a bottle to Wen Rugui.

Zhong Shulan had wanted to tell her a few times that that would not be necessary, but she was not able to get herself to say that out loud.

She hadn’t seen such a happy smile on her daughter for a very long time.

Her daughter had been sent to the ranch with them since she was 10 years old. All these years, she never had enough to eat or gotten enough sleep. She did the dirtiest of all work and, all these years, Zhong Shulan had felt guilty toward her daughter.

If only she could, she would hand her daughter the best of everything in the world.

When Jiao Yunshi was done with her hot sauce, she said with a smile, “Mom, I’ll bring these over to the dean and the others now.”

Zhong Shulan knew that the dean was the extra. Mainly they were for Wen Rugui.

But she couldn’t bring herself to stop her daughter from going.

Jiao Yunshi went and gave the dean and the other managers their hot sauce before she finally arrived at Wen Rugui’s place.
