Chapter 615: Chapter 613: Encountering Vicious Dogs on the Road

Lin Wanwan came out after blow-drying her hair half-dry, and Lu Shouyue was still playing a mobile game. She immediately noticed the gift box on the dining table.

"Mr. Lu, what’s this on the table?"

Without lifting his head, Lu Shouyue replied, "American specialties, brought for you."

Curious, Lin Wanwan opened the box to see what was inside: ginseng, chocolates, and macadamia nuts—all delicious treats—and also a bag with an H clasp.

"How come there’s a bag as well?" For someone like Lin Wanwan, who usually doesn’t pay attention to brands, she didn’t find the bag particularly appealing; she preferred the styles of Chanel and Dior.

Lu Shouyue continued playing his game, "Oh, my mom asked me to bring it for you. Not sure if you’d like it."

Lin Wanwan almost faltered, "Auntie is so thoughtful..."

Lu Shouyue responded with a gentle "Hmm."

Lin Wanwan felt the bag was a bit too hot to handle and unconsciously said, "Actually, I have quite a lot of bags..."

Without much thought, Lu Shouyue said, "My mom has a whole room full of bags, do you girls ever think you have too many? Or do you think my mom’s taste isn’t good?"

Lin Wanwan had a fleeting thought of Ye Yinyin’s face, and the words of refusal never came out.

Ye Yinyin, who was a whole generation younger than Lu Xingjian, had a well-maintained face that looked much younger than her age and had a very strong aura. Lin Wanwan, although she had only met her three times, was deeply impressed.

Moreover, every time they met, Ye Yinyin gave Lin Wanwan a warm and tolerant feeling like an elder, without any hint of the coldness typical of wealthy matriarchs. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"No, the choice is quite good, hehe, please thank Auntie for me."

Putting down the bag, Lin Wanwan picked up the chocolate, opened it directly, and took a piece to taste.

Ah, silky and rich chocolate is the most delightful!

While eating, she thought to herself that Godiva chocolate was indeed delicious.

At this moment, Lu Shouyue finished a game round, with a good mood, turned his head slightly to look at Lin Wanwan.

What he saw was her in a simple white tracksuit, her hair mostly dry and tucked behind her ears with a few strands playfully falling on her cheek, accentuating her perfect facial features.

Her fair pink fingers were pinching a piece of brown chocolate, bringing it to her cherry-red lips, biting it with her pearly teeth—a sight that made Lu Shouyue’s throat tighten, and he seemed to break into a sweat.

He stuffed his phone into his pocket and stood up, saying, "Wanwan, it’s lunch time. Why don’t we go to Time Hotel today? They’ve just got a fresh batch of seafood from the Atlantic Ocean."

If he didn’t say something to shift focus, he couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t embarrass himself.

Earlier, with Lin Wanwan entering the bathroom for a shower in broad daylight, it was already enough to spark the imagination. Now she came out post-shower, looking all flushed pink and very tempting, yet she seemed blissfully unaware.

Lin Wanwan finished eating three chocolate pieces, wiped her hands with a tissue, and hesitated a bit, saying, "I have to go quite far in the afternoon."

Lu Shouyue came over, half-smiling, "Afternoon is afternoon. Lunch still needs to be eaten, right? Or are you afraid to go with me?"

Lin Wanwan immediately set her mind firm and said, "Alright, let’s eat together."

After all, he’s right, meals have to be eaten. After lunch, she would head out to refresh the Space-Time Gate, and there was still plenty of time on hand.

Lu Shouyue’s mouth raised slightly in a smile, and he was the first to go out, followed closely by the two bodyguards stationed at the door.

Lin Wanwan gathered the items on the table and followed out as well.

The two had just stepped out of the small courtyard and were walking toward the parking area when they came across a middle-aged woman with two pit bulls on a leash.

As they passed by, the two pit bulls suddenly jumped up in excitement, bounding straight for Lin Wanwan.

It might have been because Lin Wanwan, in these past few days, was in a special period, carrying a bloody scent, thus triggering the aggression of the pit bulls.

The middle-aged woman holding the leash couldn’t hold back the suddenly excited pit bulls.

Lin Wanwan hadn’t anticipated this accident. Before she could react, the dogs lunged at her, and she hurriedly raised her arms to defend herself.

Lu Shouyue quickly shielded Lin Wanwan behind him, kicking toward the dogs’ heads, which the agile dogs evaded.

Although his first kick missed, the aggressive move by Lu Shouyue further provoked the highly combative pit bulls. Their sharp teeth were fully exposed, attempting to get around Lu Shouyue to attack Lin Wanwan.

Pit bulls, once they’ve fixed their target, rarely shift easily, and they often have inexplicable fits of rage. In most cities, such dogs are actually banned, yet there’s always someone who disregards the rules.

However, this time, the pit bulls picked the wrong target to go crazy on. Lin Wanwan wasn’t a defenseless woman, and with Lu Shouyue and two bodyguards, they were seasoned fighters.

Even though pit bulls have a dull sense of pain and, when in fight mode, can ignore pain with excellent endurance and horrifying bite force requiring trainers to use a crowbar to pry their jaws open.

But the two martial arts-trained bodyguards were braver, each locking down a pit bull securely by the throat.

With the strength of the two bodyguards, human killing machines, fighting dogs were nothing!

The female owner, who couldn’t restrain the fighting dogs, seeing her beloved pets nearly choked to death by the two men, hurried forward to intervene, "Don’t kill them, enough, enough, let them go!"

The two bodyguards remained unmoved, allowing the middle-aged woman’s fists and fingernails to land on their hair and bodies, refusing to let go.

With the vicious dogs inexplicably attacking their boss, why would the bodyguards not take them down?

Lu Shouyue, mindful of the gender difference, refrained from intervening with the middle-aged woman, but Lin Wanwan had no such reservations.

She immediately stepped from behind Lu Shouyue and grabbed the middle-aged woman’s hand, preventing her from further striking the bodyguards.

Lin Wanwan, being so strong, had the middle-aged woman in her grasp like being fixed by iron pliers. Even though the woman started cursing, she was completely immobilized.

"What are you doing? Do you know how valuable my dogs are?" the middle-aged woman yelled.

At this point, the two bodyguards finally released the pit bulls one by one and stood up.

The two brutally aggressive dogs, previously attacking, were now lying with tongues dripping out, clearly done for.

Lin Wanwan also released the middle-aged woman, who, upon seeing the condition of her beloved dogs, burst into tears, screeching and demanding compensation, claiming they were worth more than the men.

Lu Shouyue pulled Lin Wanwan back a step and coldly said, "Yes, a compensation is warranted. You’ll be compensating us for emotional distress."

Then he ordered one of the bodyguards, "Ahao, call the police, and get the company’s legal department on this, prepare for a lawsuit."

"Yes."

"Leave this to you."

"Yes."

"Let’s go, Wanwan." After issuing orders, Lu Shouyue didn’t even glance at the middle-aged woman, grabbed Lin Wanwan’s hand, and strode forward.

"Hey! You can’t leave!" the middle-aged woman yelled furiously behind them, yet with bodyguard Ahao’s prevention, she couldn’t catch up, watching as the three moved further away.

"Weren’t you talking about compensation? Let’s get this straight," bodyguard Ahao sneered, dialing the police line, "Hello, is this 110? There’s someone here with pit bulls attacking people!"
