Chapter 1197: Chapter 1211: Assault (17)
Instantly, the whole room erupted in laughter.
Especially the old man, who was laughing the heartiest.
He held his cane and looked at Huo Jinnan, speaking earnestly, "Anan, see, even the Captain dislikes you."
Huo Jinnan, "..."
The Captain glanced at the old man and barked, "Woof woof woof," louder than before.
"..."
The old man sat there looking at the Captain, his face darkening, proving the old saying right: the dog matches the owner! Isn’t this a slap in his face? It must have learned from Huo Jinnan!
Everyone in the hall looked at the old man, not daring to laugh out loud.
The old man sat there, lightly coughing to cover up his embarrassment.
The Captain turned and rushed toward Qin Huan, but suddenly his tail was grabbed by someone.
Turning back, he saw Huo Jinnan. He stretched his neck, "Woof—"
Huo Jinnan’s voice was cool, "Captain."
With a commanding presence, the Captain’s bark petered out before it was finished, staring at the white bandage on Huo Jinnan’s eye for a long while, then lowered his head and gently bit the cuff of Huo Jinnan’s trousers.
Huo Jinnan vigorously rubbed the Captain’s head, "Been a while, gotten some skills, huh?"
The Captain slyly glanced at Huo Jinnan with his dog eyes.
Huo Jinnan, "Go play somewhere else."
The Captain reluctantly glanced at Huo Jinnan, wagging his tail, sneaked a few swipes at Qin Huan’s skirt, and went to find the little ones.
After playing with the little ones for a while, the Captain jumped out of the second-floor window, crouched and stuck close to the wall, winding from the north side to the south. His two front paws gently rested on the first-floor window sill, his pointed nails gripping tightly, ears standing up as he listened for a while, slowly poking his dog head out, his big eyes round as he gazed around the room.
Then, he lifted a paw to push open the window, and leapt inside.
Spotting the baby crib, he trotted over, placing his paws swiftly on the railing of the twin baby crib, stretching his neck, eyes wide open and round, watching the sleeping, blissful Xiaoliao and Xiaoqi inside.
Xiaoliao had kicked off the thin sheet covering him.
The Captain glanced and cautiously used a paw to hook it back, gently placing it on Xiaoliao. Seeing it wasn’t well covered, he adjusted it sideways, matching Xiaoqi’s cover, before moving his paw away, glancing at Xiaoliao then Xiaoqi again.
Suddenly, drool dripped down, and he hurriedly caught it with a paw.
At that moment, hearing noise at the door, he glanced in its direction, eyes wide, then quickly crawled under the bed to hide.
Xiaoying finally took the chance when Xu Yuan went to the bathroom, ran to the bedroom, opened the door, and seeing no one there, her eyes fell on the sleeping Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi. She picked them up one by one, wrapped them, and put them in a large garbage bag.
The bag was somewhat transparent, visible from the outside, fearing Mr. Huo and the others in the living room might see, she placed a diaper packaging bag beside it, stuffed some crumpled tissue around, ensuring nothing could be seen from outside, then glanced at the two sleeping little ones, whispered softly, "Xiaoliao, Xiaoqi, I’m sorry."
The Captain crawled under the bed, head to the ground, eyes wide like a dog, seemingly not understanding what Xiaoying was doing.
Then Xiaoying lifted the bag, headed toward the door, glanced at the nearby room, seeing the door closed, Xu Yuan should still be in the bathroom not out yet, as she was about to close the door, suddenly heard a loud "Woof—," followed by intense arm pain.
