Chapter 46: Dog Barking

Xia Anruo was almost at the car. Liao Qing had already opened the door for her and was about to get in. Then she heard a very familiar voice amidst the noisy shouting behind her.

She stopped and looked back.

Chu Ze saw Xia Anruo stop and knew that she had heard it, so he glanced at the grumpy old man next to him and showed an unfathomable smile: "Wait and eat."

The grumpy old man was dumbfounded.

No, what is this operation?
Can you call An Ruo back by just shouting oi?
Are you Chu Yuxuan?
Just the next moment...

"Chuze Chuze, something doesn't seem right."

Cheng Ran, who had been observing An Ruo's movements, was startled at first by Chu Ze's shouting, but he soon discovered that An Ruo's subsequent actions were wrong.

Chu Ze looked over there and saw...

Xia Anruo stopped.

Xia Anruo looked back.

Xia Anruo climbed into the car.

"Oh no, An Ruo seems to be leaving..." Cheng Ran shouted.

"Impossible, since she heard it, she will definitely come over." Chu Ze was confident at this time and was not panicked at all.

She knows the value of Mr. Qu’s kindness, but she can’t be ungrateful.

"But she's already in the car." Cheng Ran continued.

"Well, I guess he's going to get into the car to get something. Just wait, he'll be down soon." Chu Ze waved his hand, not caring at all.

"The car door is also closed." Cheng Ran said again.

"It's cold today."

“But the cars have all left.”

"?"

Chu Ze finally realized that something seemed wrong.

Oh, are you really leaving?
The plot isn't right!

I'm just about to show off and slap myself in the face. All the groundwork has been laid, and the clown villains have been arranged. What should I do if you leave?
Am I a fucking clown?

I thought the grumpy guy was a small-time villain, but it turns out I was actually myself?
No, I am the protagonist!
Chu Ze quickly took out his phone and opened WeChat to contact Xia Anruo urgently: "Sister, please come back soon! What will I do if you leave, sister!"

Swallow, how can I live without you!

How handsome you were when you shouted "oi" just now, and how awkward you look when you are typing and calling "sister" now.

After waiting for a while, Xia Anruo still didn't reply. Chu Ze felt even colder than Teacher Fan Wei.

This damn online article is bullying me!

The grumpy brother was relieved to see An Ruo leave, and said that it was impossible for such a big star to be called back just by a random word.

Otherwise, his worldview would probably collapse.

He touched Chu Ze's shoulder, and the mockery on his lips became stronger: "Brother, what do you say? Go to the toilet?"

"..."

Damn, there is also this...

After failing to slap his face, Chu Ze looked ashen and could only pretend to be dead.

After all, he is the eldest in the family, not the eighth, and cannot eat that stuff.

"You want to cheat, right? If you regret it, you'll be a grandson." The grumpy old man sneered at the scene.

"A grandson is a grandson!"

Chu Ze waved to Cheng Ran and pointed at the grumpy old man:

"Cheng Ran, come here, call me great grandfather!"

Cheng Ran: “???”

You are really 6, and also really a dog.

……

In a business car.

Liao Qing obviously didn't understand Xia Anruo's behavior before getting on the car: "Why did you suddenly stop and look back?"

"Didn't you hear any sound?" Xia Anruo turned and asked Liao Qing.

"What sound?" Liao Qing was stunned by Xia Anruo's question.

"It sounds like a dog is barking." Xia Anruo said.

"Where did the dog come from in the mall?" Liao Qing wondered, there were almost no room at the entrance of the mall, how could there be a dog?

"Did you hear it wrong?" Liao Qing scratched his head.

"Maybe."

Xia Anruo tilted her head and didn't understand clearly. After all, there were many people around and it was very noisy, so it was possible that she had heard it wrong.

She rested for a while and finally had time to take out her cell phone. She was confused to see several WeChat messages sent by Chu Ze at some point.

Because they kept shouting strange things at her like asking her to go back.

Where to go back?
Xia Anruo then asked about Chu Ze's condition with great concern: "What's wrong with you?"

"Why are you replying now?" Chu Ze replied quickly.

"What's wrong?" Xia Anruo didn't understand what urgent matter he had?
"I called you just now, didn't you hear me?" Chu Ze explained.

"Just now?" Xia Anruo was stunned when she saw the news.

"At the entrance of the mall!"

"Was it you who heard the dog barking just now?" Xia Anruo said subconsciously.

"?"

Chu Ze slowly typed a question mark.

What's the dog barking?
Is it true?

"Why are you in Shanghai?" Xia Anruo realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly changed the subject.

"I came here to play with my classmates." Chu Ze didn't dwell on what he had just said. Although it seemed like he was scolding him, he had no evidence.

"Then why are you calling me?"

"My classmate is your fan. I wanted to ask you to get him an autograph, but you turned around and left." Chu Ze explained the reason.

"I'm sorry, there were too many people just now and I couldn't hear your voice clearly. Do you still want an autograph now?" Xia Anruo understood the reason and said apologetically.

"How can I sign it if you're gone?"

"I have to go back to the hotel later. You can wait for me there first. I will sign for your classmates then." Xia Anruo said, and sent Chu Ze the location of the hotel.

"Ouke Ouke." Chu Ze replied.

……

After Chu Ze finished talking with Xia Anruo, he and Cheng Ran left the mall in dejected looks.

Cheng Ran was still cursing beside him: "Fuck you, can you please not bring me along when you fail to show off in the future?"

"Fuck, brother, can you share the hardship with me a little? I'm helping you get an autograph." Chu Ze was so angry.

Do you have any sense of brotherhood?

He wants an autograph out of kindness to help you, even if it's mostly to show off, but at least he has some intention, even if it's not much.

You ungrateful fellow!
"You didn't even get it, and yet you have a grandfather out of nowhere." Cheng Ran added.

"..."

Chu Ze was speechless.

Heartbroken.

So can you please hold it in?
Give me some face.

He had no idea that being the protagonist of an online novel was so difficult...

"You keep scolding me? Do you still want An Ru's autograph?" Chu Ze became furious. If I can't deal with my hot-tempered brother, how can I not deal with you?
"Now that An Ruo has left, where are they going?" Cheng Ran snorted disdainfully.

"So what if I leave? I have a way." Chu Ze patted his chest and said.

"I don't believe you." Cheng Ran rolled his eyes at him.

"Okay, okay, you don't believe it, right? What if I get it for you this time?" Chu Ze was unwilling to accept the failure of his slap in the face just now, so he initiated a bet again.

"Then you really are my grandfather." Cheng Ran said with a laugh.

Is this guy still pretending?
Wasn’t it enough that I slapped you in the face just now? Are you going to do it again now?
Even if he believes in you, he is like this.

Looking at Cheng Ran's disdainful eyes, the coldness in his expression...

How did this pretentious and face-slapping plot get triggered again?

The failure of pretending to be cool and slapping someone in the face just now was due to a mistake. Xia Anruo didn’t hear it. Now that she has agreed this time, how can she fail?
I have to be Xiao Yan for once today.

"Damn it, I have to demote you this time." Chu Ze said he didn't believe this evil.
