Chapter 1101: Chapter 1161
Jiang Qi watched the girl’s retreating back, then lowered his head to look at the gift still in his hand that he hadn’t managed to give her. There was a hint of melancholy in his eyes, and he picked up his things and turned back.
On the way back to the apartment, Qiao Qiqi ran into a little dog that kept following her. It was tiny, its breed hard to tell, and the little guy wiggled its butt, stubbornly trailing her all the way to the entrance of the residential compound.
Of course, Qiao Qiqi also deliberately slowed her pace to see if it would give up. If it stopped following her, she wouldn’t bother with it. But if it kept trailing her, she’d take it home for now.
She hadn’t expected this little dog to actually follow her all the way to the outside of her complex. She turned around and crooked her finger at the little dog following her at just the right distance.
The little dog immediately perked up and ran toward her in a happy little trot.
Qiao Qiqi squatted down, picked up the little dog, tucked it into her clothes, and brought it into the complex. After she got home, she immediately took out her phone and bought a bunch of dog supplies—food, clothes, daily-use items, and even a bed, all in one go.
The little guy looked very healthy; it could eat, drink, and poop just fine, so Qiao Qiqi wasn’t in a hurry to take it for a check-up.
There was a knock at the door. Qiao Qiqi thought it was the food delivery, so she immediately got up to open the door. "Coming."
The door opened, and the first thing that came into view was a bouquet of blooming roses. Qiao Qiqi froze for a second, and the next moment, a handsome face appeared in front of her.
"What are you doing here?" Qiao Qiqi looked at Gu Shili in surprise.
"I missed you, so of course I came to see you." Beside Gu Shili was a suitcase.
"Come in first, we’ll talk inside." Qiao Qiqi pulled him in by the hand, warmth spreading in her heart.
By this time, the little dog had already eaten its fill and trotted over, tilting its head and curiously staring at the man who had just come in.
"How come there’s a little dog here?" Gu Shili had originally planned to hold her and get intimate, but his plans were disrupted by this little dog.
"Picked it up, just brought it back." After closing the door, Qiao Qiqi went to pour him some water first.
Gu Shili took the glass, lowered his head to look at the little ball of fluff that was also studying him, and said with a smile, "That’s not bad. When I’m not around, you won’t be so lonely anymore."
"I actually didn’t plan to keep a pet. It’s just that it doesn’t have a home right now, so I’ll take care of it for the time being. I’ll figure things out after my internship ends."
The doorbell rang again, and Qiao Qiqi went to open the door. This time it really was the food delivery.
Watching her carrying the takeout, Gu Shili asked helplessly, "Don’t tell me you’ve been eating this every day since you got here?"
"I’m too lazy to cook." Qiao Qiqi felt a little guilty.
"I’ll assign a chef to you." Gu Shili wanted to cook for her every day himself, but there was really too much going on at the Gu Family right now. Even this time, he could only stay for two days before flying back to the Country for work. It was a month and a half, he definitely needed to arrange a chef.
"It’s really not necessary. I know how to cook. I just haven’t bought any groceries yet. How about you come to the supermarket with me later? We can buy ingredients and come back to cook." Qiao Qiqi said, full of enthusiasm.
Gu Shili was a bit tired, but it was rare to see her this lively, so he nodded immediately. "I’ll change my clothes and we’ll go."
The two of them changed clothes and headed out under the watchful gaze of the little black dog.
The little black dog saw the people suddenly vanish and quickly ran to the door, trying to scratch it open to get out. Unfortunately, it simply couldn’t do it, but it refused to give up, its two little paws scratching like it was about to take off.
...
After Qiao Qiqi and Gu Shili arrived at the supermarket, they pushed a cart around to buy things. There were just too many things they needed, so the two of them had to go through the aisles one section at a time.
