Doctor obediently carried out She Yuan’s command and stayed away from Dave. With his limbs free, Dave felt relieved.
“Mr. She, why is Doctor always fastening on Dave? ”
“Because guarding beasts’ behaviors are a direct reflection of their masters’ emotions.”
Ruan Bai was stunned and a few seconds later, he asked, “So… You… You want to hold Dave?”
She Yuan had mixed feelings of anger and helplessness.
He asked, “Did you pass the exam of Electronic Machinery Course?”
Ruan Bai was about to nod when he suddenly recalled that he did learn from books that guarding beasts and their masters were greatly related to each other in character and behavior.
It could even be said that masters would acquire some characteristics from their own guarding beasts. Some masters had good ears and a keen sense of smell because their guarding beast were excellent in these respects. A guarding beast was a direct reflection of the state of its masters. The better the intelligence and physical strength of the master, the stronger the energy of the guarding beast.
So, the reason two guarding beasts loved each other was mostly because their masters loved each other; the reason two guarding beasts fought against each other was mostly because their masters were at daggers drawn.
As soon as he figured out what She Yuan meant, Ruan Bai flushed to the ears.
With a bright red face, he whispered, “Oh…”
“So you don’t have to worry about Dave. Let them play together.”
Ruan Bai nodded. She Yuan took his hand and drew him back into the kitchen, leaving Dave and Doctor in the drawing room.
Dave was so scared that the fine hair on his skin stood on end. ‘Master, look at me! I also want to take your hand. Do you no longer love me? Ah!!! Don’t leave me behind!’ he shouted in his heart.
Doctor crawled right up to Dave with satisfaction and poked Dave with his tail, as if to say, “Now you are mine.” Dave wanted to play dead, but Doctor took a big box of energy sticks from a drawer of the tea table, which attracted Dave’s attention. The energy sticks were the reserve grain prepared by She Yuan for Doctor, and happened to be Dave’s favorite food.
Dave lay down on the floor and played dead, but he squinted his eyes and kept staring at the energy sticks. ‘This type of energy stick seems to be expensive, so every time my master feeds me, he is unwilling to give me too many…’ After thinking for a while, Dave opened his eyes, pretended to have just come out of a coma, and then gave Doctor a questioning look, as if to say, “Are these energy sticks all for me?”
Doctor nodded and pushed the box forward. Dave gave a happy oink and started to eat.
Doctor had his own plan. He wrapped his long body around Dave and signalled that Dave could eat only in this way.
Dave pouts and compromised, “OK.”
Doctor was satisfied with Dave’s obedience. So he twined himself loosely around Dave and fed Dave the energy sticks one after another. Dave was also happy and thought, ‘He seems to be a good guy!’
In the kitchen, Ruan Bai was eating with She Yuan. ‘He’s always flirting with me. I have to do something. As a man, I should confront this problem and solve it,’ Ruan Bai thought.
“Mr. She, I want to talk to you. ”
She Yuan swallowed the last mouthful of porridge, wiped his mouth with a tissue and motioned Ruan Bai to go on speaking.
“Don’t you think that it’s improper to say something ambiguous to me?”
“No, I don’t. You and I are single. Can’t I pursue you?”
“… Ah?” At his words, Ruan Bai was struck dumb.
“I know you can’t accept me right now, but please believe me. My decision has been made after careful consideration.”
“But… But we are not familiar with each other…”
She Yuan’s eyes dimmed, filled with disappointment. But as he raised his head, he resumed his composure.
“It doesn’t matter. We have three months to get to know each other. You have to take care of me, don’t you?”
Ruan Bai bowed his head and dared not look up at him. Now he understood that She Yuan was pretending to be hurt in order to approach him. But Ruan Bai didn’t want to expose She Yuan’s lie. Finally, he plucked up the courage to say, “I… I am traditional… ”
She Yuan nodded, “Okay, I see. Marriage is the most important thing in our life. We shouldn’t make a swift decision without careful consideration. I will prove myself by action and give you a satisfactory answer.”
Just then, Ruan Bai’s phone rang. He looked down at the phone screen and said, “It’s my tutor.”
“You can answer it.”
Ruan Bai answered the call. His tutor asked his students, including Ruan Bai, to tidy up the lab because it was to be shut down for a shake-up and all the researchers would be given a holiday. So they had to move away all the important things in the lab.
Ruan Bai told She Yuan about it. She Yuan agreed to let Ruan Bai go, but with reluctance.
“Mr. She, what time shall I come to you tomorrow?”
“I’m not sure yet, but I will call you later to tell you when you should come.”
Ruan Bai nodded and left She Yuan’s home. He cleaned up the lab and sorted out all the documents and equipment with his juniors. He was busy until 6:00 p.m.
When he returned home, his parents were eating dinner.
At the sight of Ruan Bai coming back, Ruan Bai’s mother, Qi Qiuyu was very happy and immediately served him a bowl of rice.
Ruan Bai and his parents started to have dinner together with pleasure. However, after a little while, Qi Qiuyu asked, “My dear son, do you have anything to do tomorrow?”
Tomorrow was a free day for Ruan Bai because She Yuan hadn’t contacted him yet. So he answered, “No.”
“That’s great! Do you remember Aunt Li? She once held you when you were a baby. Now she has returned from abroad and invites our family to have dinner with her. You should go too.”
Ruan Bai had no memories of his childhood, because he had once suffered a high fever which had deleted most of his memories. But afraid of upsetting his mother, he didn’t mention his loss of memory.
“Okay, I’ll drive tomorrow.”
After dinner, his father went to the kitchen and helped his mother wash the dishes. Ruan Bai went to his bedroom, washed his face and rinsed his mouth, then lay on the bed reading.
But he couldn’t concentrate on the book. Every ten minutes he checked his cell phone but She Yuan didn’t contact him.
Ruan Bai pouted, threw his cell phone aside and slowly fell asleep.
The next day, Ruan Bai and his parents went to a high-class restaurant. As soon as he walked into the private room, he was shocked because She Yuan was sitting beside Aunt Li
