"How about... you come up with me one more time?" Zhao Yingjun looked up at Lin Xian:
"Seeing it like this, I really can’t rest easy. What if, after you leave... it starts crying uncontrollably again, just like it did that night? I really wouldn’t know what to do."
"Can you help me lull VV to sleep before you go? It didn’t sleep at all during the day, so I guess once it falls asleep tonight, it probably won’t wake up again. It’s bound to sleep till dawn."
Oh.

Lin Xian sighed inwardly.
He now felt a certain affection for this Pomeranian, claiming there was a bond with VV that transcended time and space would be an exaggeration, but indeed, he felt a special kind of fondness.
So naturally, he felt a bit worried about it.
He hadn’t expected that his soft-heartedness had even reached the ears of dogs.
"Alright."
He turned back and looked at the driver Xiao Li in the Alfa Romeo:
"Xiao Li, wait here for a bit longer, I’ll make sure this dog falls asleep before I come back down."
Xiao Li nodded:
"Don’t worry, Mr. Lin, I’ll wait right here for you."
Soon after.
Lin Xian went back upstairs to the apartment with Zhao Yingjun.
"This is where VV usually sleeps."
Zhao Yingjun led Lin Xian into a huge bedroom and pointed at a soft oval cushion on the carpet beside the bed.
It was raised around the edges and indented in the middle, with a blanket on top.
No doubt that was where VV usually slept.
But...
This was Lin Xian’s first time entering a woman’s bedroom in reality, making him feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Not to mention, his task was to lull a small dog to sleep beside a woman’s bed.
What kind of high-level SSS-tier mission was this?
Why did it feel like he’d been tricked onto a sinking ship?
"Go to sleep, VV."
Lin Xian, as if coaxing a child, held VV and persuaded:
"Do me a favor and fall asleep, will you?"
However!
The Pomeranian VV had a piercing gaze!
Staring at Lin Xian!
So spirited!
"Heh."
Lin Xian was now utterly convinced.
This doggie was way too cunning! If this wasn’t considered ’becoming a spirit,’ what was?
Was it trying to outlast him?
Lin Xian wound up coaxing for an entire hour.
At times, the Pomeranian’s eyelids would begin to fight each other, and Lin Xian would place it on the cushion, ready to leave.
But the next second.
The Pomeranian would immediately bounce up, eyes still as sharp as ever!
"It seems like... It seems like..."
Zhao Yingjun slightly furrowed her brows, supporting her chin with her hand, looking at Lin Xian as if she wanted to say something but hesitated:
"It seems like... it doesn’t want you to go home..."
She suggested:
"Why don’t you take it home with you for the night? You can look after it for a few days."
"Woo woo woo woo! Woo woo woo woo woo woof woo woo!" The Pomeranian VV began to cry loudly!
"Oh no no, I was just joking, I wasn’t going to abandon you..."
Zhao Yingjun hurriedly squatted down too, comforting VV:
"Alright, alright, I’m not going anywhere. Geez... what are you doing? Had I known, I wouldn’t have let Lin Xian come up..."
Lin Xian was speechless, helplessly watching this drama queen.
Is it that every VV is a drama queen?
But he wasn’t so dramatic himself, was he?

After a while more of struggling...
After all, VV had been lethargic and lacking appetite for several days, suffering from insufficient sleep.
So eventually, it couldn’t resist the drowsiness any longer.
Its heavy eyelids closed several times and finally shut down unwillingly... Lying on the soft cushion, it began to snore softly.
Zhao Yingjun and Lin Xian truly let out a sigh of relief.
She placed her right index finger on her lips, shushed softly, and gestured toward the living room outside, indicating for Lin Xian to go out to talk.
The two of them went to the living room and approached the front door.
"I’m really sorry to have troubled you today," Zhao Yingjun apologized:
"I’m sorry, I didn’t expect it to get so late."
"No problem, as long as VV is asleep, it’s fine."
Lin Xian pushed down the door handle, stepped out of the door, and turned back:
"You should also rest early. Good night."
Zhao Yingjun nodded slightly with a smile and waved at Lin Xian:
"Good night, Lin Xian."
...
...
He took the elevator straight down to the underground parking garage.
His Alphard Business Vehicle was still parked in its usual spot.
Upon seeing Lin Xian come out of the elevator, the driver Xiao Li automatically opened the rear power door seat:
"Mr. Lin, you’re back."
Lin Xian nodded, got into the back seat, sat down, and leaned back:
"Let’s go home."
Another day, both tiring and fulfilling, was finally at an end.
He pressed the button to close the vehicle’s side door.
Beep beep.
The electric sliding door emitted a soft sound, starting to close slowly from back to front.
Lin Xian looked through the narrowing crack of the door, took one last glance at the elevator leading to Zhao Yingjun’s apartment, and closed his eyes...
Puff.
Suddenly, there was a muffled noise.
A small hand wearing black rubber gloves out of nowhere stretched through the almost closed door crack!
Black Hand firmly clung to the electric sliding door, preventing it from moving any further.
Lin Xian sat up perplexedly and looked out through the dark blue car window...
There was a girl whose appearance was cool and refined, her delicate features handsome and her cheeks as adorable as a porcelain doll’s.
At about fifteen or sixteen years of age, she was scarcely taller than the car window frame, her short black hair swaying without a hint of wind in the still underground parking garage.
And her eyes were pressed tightly against the car window glass...
Glowing like a bright blue lightbulb in the dark of the night!
Staring intently at Lin Xian!
