Pastoral Daily Life

“Whats wrong?” When Yan Yue drove back and noticed Daheis abnormality, he got out of the car and looked in the direction Dahei was looking, but saw nothing.

Lu Lingxi looked worried, “A car just passed by, and Dahei is like this.” He stroked Daheis head, trying to calm him down. The car was driving fast; Lu Lingxi only recognised it as a black Audi, but didnt see anything else.

Yan Yue frowned imperceptibly, faintly thinking of something. It had been a while since Dahei was hit, so it was unlikely Dahei would be able to recognise the person who hit him. But the dogs sense of smell was very keen, and Dahei was exceptionally smart, so it might be the culprit.

Yan Yues gaze fell on Dahei; despite Lu Lingxis reassurance, Dahei still looked very angry. His eyes were fierce as he glared ahead and there was a low growl deep in his throat. All the time until now, Dahei behaved so harmlessly by Lu Lingxis side that Yan Yue had almost forgotten that he was a stray dog before. A dog that needed to fight, fight for food and fight viciously to survive.

Yan Yue followed Lu Lingxis example and squatted down, meeting Daheis eyes seriously, “The car that just passed was the one that hit you?”

If someone had mentioned to Yan Yue in the past that he would be talking to a dog as seriously as if it were a human, he would have thought the other party was crazy. But the reality was that he was trying hard to figure out what was going on in Daheis mind at the moment. He wasnt actually very sure that Dahei could understand such complicated words. Although Dahei was usually very smart and Lu Lingxi would often talk to him, Yan Yue always felt that Daheis reaction was a conditioned reflex, not necessarily that he really understood the young mans words. But to Yan Yues surprise, after he finished speaking, Dahei, who was very angry, quieted down somewhat and gave him a low bark.

Yan Yue concealed his surprise and looked at Dahei steadily, saying in a deep voice, word by word, “Remember his smell, next time you find him, I will take you to revenge.” His strength was evident in these words, even though he was talking to a dog.

Dahei looked at Yan Yue with some hesitation for a moment; his arched body slowly calmed down, the hostility in his eyes dispersed, and instead of a low roar, he whimpered, aggrieved. Yan Yue looked at him and hooked up the corners of his mouth, stretched out his hand and stroked Daheis head vigorously. Dahei didnt dodge like before and looked at Yan Yue with a little more trust in his eyes.

Lu Lingxi let out a sigh of relief, a little surprised but more shocked. Yan Yues aura just now was so strong that even he was somewhat subdued. Dahei, who was calmer now, rubbed against Lu Lingxis hand as affectionately as usual. Perhaps realizing that he had scared Lu Lingxi earlier, Dahei licked Lu Lingxis fingers a little flatteringly, as if the dog that had just bristled was not him.
