Chapter 9 - Da Hei: I’ll kill myself.

“Wuaaaaaaa! Don’t, don’t eat me!

The little baby sat on the floor with a bare butt name?”

Yan Xuanjing did not answer, but Lin Mu heard the movement beside him and casually replied, “he’s called Milky.”

Yan Xuanjing: “……”

Ginseng Baby: “……”

The little Ginseng froze for a while before before he stammered out his reply, “Mi, milk, milky, qu, quite good.”

“Right?” Lin Mu chopped away at the vegetables and happily said, “I also feel that it’s quite good, especially suitable for him, such a big pile of white fluff, so sweet and lovely.”

Ginseng Baby: “……”

Yan Xuanjing shook his ears and was too lazy to listen.

He got up and went outside, strolling around the yard a few times to stretch his paws and leave his mark everywhere, circling the small yard to warn away other evil monsters.

The little Ginseng looked at Yan Xuanjing who went outside, then looked at Lin Mu who was humming a song, and quietly continued to sip the juice in his hands.

After dinner, Lin Mu took out some empty flowerpots for the Ginseng Baby and passed a few succulents over for the child to play with.

Next, he went over to trim some potted plants that were near their shipping date and moved them inside. He picked an area with suitable lighting and angles to take a few photos for memory’s sake and then sent the pictures to the clients. After he had gotten approval, he sent them out to his circle of friends as advertisement. Then, he pulled over a stool and got started on the accounts.

Yan Xuanjing casually glanced at it, pretended he saw nothing and turned and left.

He also had something on.

— About the passage between the Central Plains and the Great Wilderness.

The Central Plains also had a mosnter responsible for guarding the passage, and Yan Xuanjing got an address from his father before coming over.

A City Central Plains, Qingyao Road No.404, Qingyao Subdistrict Office.

This was the address for the mosnters responsible for guarding the passage in the Central Plains.

Lin Mu had been planning to make a small greenhouse for the yard.

His mother always used to look at other people’s greenhouses with envy. Unfortunately, at that time, their family’s conditions weren’t good and his mother had to support him too, so up until now, the greenhouse had never been built.

But now that Lin Mu only had a single person in the house to feed, and had also saved up quite a sum, he was thought about building one.

And if there was a greenhouse, he would save a lot of energy when taking care of these potted plants.

His yard was a total of about 460 square meters and his house, about 160 square meters, was in the middle of this yard. The yard was quite spacious and it wasn’t covered in concrete, but with grass. Other than the area where the potted plants were laid out, there was only a swing made by Lin Mu and his mother when he was young.

With five days left to go, Lin Mu looked at his balance and decided to take advantage of these few days to confirm the cost of this project, and if it was possible, quickly build the greenhouse.

As a result, Lin Mu found out that his family’s dog was even busier than him.

He would run out everyday after breakfast and only returned when it was getting dark.

And that wasn’t even it. During the weekend, Milky didn’t even return for two days!

Since Lin Mu was going to work today, he got up early in the morning. After washing up, he found that Milky, who had disappeared for two days, was lying and sleeping quite comfortably in the newly bought dog bed, looking very soft.

Still knew how to come back!

Lin Mu stared at the dog with round eyes and wanted to wake him up, but just as he reached out, he shrunk back his hand and glared at the dog who was sleeping soundly for a while.

The dog was sleeping very soundly, and did not notice Lin Mu’s killing intent.

Lin Mu stared at the dog for a while and felt his anger leak away as he gave an angry huff and rubbed the dog’s head.

Maybe this was what it felt like to raise a son.

Lin Mu gave a sigh of old age and went thumped down the stairs to cook a meal for the dog.

“Little Ginseng?” Lin Mu pushed the small electric scooter out of the house and shouted, “I’m going to work, there is food for Milky in the pot, when he wakes up, can you help me feed him?”

After hearing the childish sounding tone respond from somewhere within his place, Lin Mu said goodbye to the little Ginseng hiding somewhere in his yard. As he left his house on his small electric scooter, Lin Mu started to think about his problem, and the more he thought about it, the less at ease he felt.

He decided to go and find Da Hei, who was also a dog, to ask about what Milky had been doing recently.

“You still need to ask this?” Da Hei was slightly surprised, “you’re being treated as a backup plan!”

“What?” Lin Mu was shocked, “you can raise yourself into a backup plan while raising a dog?”

“Humans know that they can’t place all their eggs into the same basket. A stray dog, and one that might had spiritual wisdom, isn’t it normal for him to choose a few people to raise him? Oridinary dogs also do this on occasion.” Da Hei said, “he might be eating from hundreds of families.”

Lin Mu heard his words and was dumbfounded for a long while, opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something and closed it again, and his whole person became depressed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“…… Then should I just go and find another dog to raise.” Lin Mu whispered.

“Then your Milky might just run away.” Da Hei paused, and added, “or he might bite the dog you just got to death.”

Lin Mu hesitated.

“Let’s do this.” Da Hei suddenly received an inspiration, “today, I’ll follow you back. If he runs, you should get a new one. If he wants to fight with me, he’ll definitely be unable to win against me. At that time I can talk with him, how about it?”

Lin Mu’s eyes lit up and felt that this was feasible.

Yan Xuanjing: Oh?

Da Hei: I’ll kill myself.
