“What? That’s how he shows gratitude?”
Yu Jin smiled bitterly: “How can dogs and humans think the same way? I raised Erniu, I know him. When he’s excited, he likes to get close to people like that.”
Jiang Zhan glared at Erniu suspiciously, finally muttering, “If I raised a dog like that, I’d have killed it long ago.”
“Woof!”
Yu Jin gave Erniu a calming look, and only then did Erniu quiet down.
“By the way, Brother Yu Qi, who was that woman who ran out of the woodshed just now?”
Jiang Zhan hadn’t seen clearly before being knocked down by Erniu, but because of that, even though A-Man was dressed as a man, her scream confirmed she was a woman.
He had been to Brother Yu Qi’s place many times but had never seen any maids or servants. Could that woman be Brother Yu Qi’s sweetheart?
Yu Jin was stunned for a moment, then quickly put on a stern face and rebuked Long Dan, who was watching the commotion: “Don’t bring women back here to fool around in the future!”
Long Dan: “…” He felt the urge to rebel against his superior, what should he do?
Jiang Zhan gave Long Dan a contemptuous look.
Long Dan: “…” He wanted to rebel now!
After finally sending Jiang Zhan away, Yu Jin raised his hand to gently massage his temples, letting out a slight sigh of relief.
Jiang Si walked out of the woodshed.
“Let me escort you back,” Yu Jin offered.
“No need to trouble Young Master Yu,” Jiang Si firmly refused. Seeing Yu Jin’s hurt expression, she wasn’t fooled by his handsome face at all and said coolly, “It wouldn’t be good if someone saw us.”
Yu Jin looked at the girl who was keeping him at arm’s length and suddenly smiled slightly: “People often see me drinking with Second Young Master Jiang, it’s no problem.”
Jiang Si was tall, and both siblings resembled their late mother. People who weren’t familiar with them might have difficulty distinguishing them from afar.
“What if we run into my Second Brother?” Jiang Si countered.
Yu Jin rubbed his nose and softened his tone: “Then let Erniu escort you. You came to find me, and if something happens to you on your way back alone, I won’t be able to explain it to Second Brother Jiang.”
Jiang Si didn’t want to argue further and nodded in agreement.
Yu Jin stood at the doorway, no longer able to see the silhouettes of the young lady and the large dog, yet he remained motionless for a long time.
Long Dan approached, his face full of curiosity, and asked, “Master, was that young lady who came earlier your sweetheart?”
Yu Jin raised his hand and hit Long Dan on the head, frowning as he said, “Don’t talk nonsense!”
She will be my sweetheart in the future, he thought to himself.
