three years ago--

Xie Qianxun, who had just returned from a one-month business trip abroad, rushed to a drinking party as soon as he got off the plane.

It was already after half past ten when the entertainment ended.

He drank a little wine at the dinner, and now he was sitting in the car going home. He felt a little bored, so he rolled down the window.

There is a river across the sidewalk next to the driveway. The summer evening breeze blows gently from there, bringing with it a refreshing feeling. Xie Qianxun suddenly feels much more comfortable. He unconsciously leans on the back seat and closes his eyes to rest. .

"Little Strawberry, here it is, haha, hurry up and chase me."

Suddenly a clear and sweet sound came from the sidewalk by the river, accompanied by a burst of laughter as sweet as silver bells.

Xie Qianxun was attracted by the sound for some reason, opened his eyes and turned his head to look out.

Under the streetlight, a girl wearing an apricot dress came into view.

The girl held a small red ball hanging with a rope in her hand and kept pulling it up and down. A gust of night wind blew by, and her long hair was blown up, revealing a white and pure face. She looked down at her feet. Something, a pair of bright eyes curled up with a smile, seemed very amused.

The next second, a white dog jumped up under the flower bed on the roadside and bit the red ball in the girl's hand.

Seeing the dog, Xie Qianxun's eyes suddenly widened under his lenses, and he was so shocked that he thought he was hallucinating.

This dog...

No matter how he looked at it, he felt like the one he raised.

"parking."

The black Bentley stopped silently.

"Haha, jump higher and bite the ball, and I will reward you with strawberries."

An Ran was happily playing with the little strawberry, when suddenly——

The little strawberry, which was still jumping around and actively grabbing the ball a second ago, paused. It seemed to feel something. It sniffed and suddenly looked back in one direction.

Immediately, he howled and ran quickly in that direction.

An Ran was playing with it at the moment. She didn't hold on to the rope tightly, and just watched it in confusion as it ran away dragging the rope.

"Hey, little strawberry."

An Ran didn't know why it was suddenly so excited. Just as she was about to catch up, she saw Little Strawberry running to the feet of a young man in a suit, arching and jumping.

The whining sound was exciting and exciting, and also had a pitiful air as if he had been greatly wronged.

Seeing this scene, An Ran couldn't help but stop.

Judging from her long-term contact with the dog, this man should be the owner of Little Strawberry.

Her eyes fell on the man.

The white shirt and trousers made the man's figure look tall and elegant. He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, handsome and elegant.

Is it really his own dog?

Xie Qianxun was a little confused as he looked at the dog that was jumping around in front of and behind him, biting his trousers and howling wildly.

It seems like he didn’t drink much tonight, right?

What's the situation?

Why was his dog outside, being taken by a girl he didn't know?

"Are you the owner of Little Strawberry?"

A soft and pleasant voice came. Xie Youshi came back to his senses and raised his head to meet the girl's clear and questioning eyes.

"Little strawberry?"

He didn't react for a moment.

"Oh, that's what I meant."

An Ran pointed to the dog that was resting at his feet.

The name "Little Strawberry" was a temporary name given by her, and it was not its original name at all.

Xie Qianxun looked at his dog and couldn't associate the name "Little Strawberry" with it.

It's fair.

But when he looked up at the girl in front of him, a warm smile appeared on his face, "Yes, I am its owner."

"Then do you have any evidence to prove it?"

The girl asked him very cautiously.

Xie Qianxun was stunned for a moment, then he took out his phone in a good-tempered manner and clicked it a few times before handing it to her, "I have a few photos here. Do you think this is proof?"

An Ran actually came up and took a look.

On the screen was a picture of a dog playing in a garden.

Xie Qianxun handed the phone forward, as if accepting the screening humbly, "There are some photos of it in the album, you can check and identify them at will."

There are many important and even confidential files in his mobile phone, which he never lets others touch. This is the first time that he has actively handed his mobile phone to others and allowed them to look through it at will.

"That's not necessary."

An Ran took two steps back in a measured manner.

She could identify the dog in the photo as Strawberry.

Coupled with Little Strawberry's attitude towards him, An Ran was basically certain that he was Little Strawberry's owner.

"I believe you," she said.

Xie Qianxun put away his phone and looked at the girl with a gentle smile in his eyes. Even his voice was warm and smiling, "Thank you for your trust."

"Sorry, I want to ask, why is it... with you?"

Xie Qianxun was really surprised by this.

"Oh, I found it on the side of the commercial plaza over there." An Ran pointed in the direction of the commercial street across the river.

"It was raining heavily and it was night. It might be too hungry to walk. It was shivering in the rain on the roadside. I saw that it was pitiful and homeless, so I took it home."

Xie Qianxun looked shocked, "Did you find it on the roadside?"

"correct."

"You said it's...homeless?"

An Ran looked at the dog owner in front of her strangely, "Your dog has been missing for a month, don't you know?"

This is too irresponsible.

what?

His dog...has been missing for a month?

Xie Qianxun felt that maybe it was because he had been on a plane for more than ten hours and drank some wine in a wine shop after getting off the plane. Now he felt like his brain was not functioning properly.

After a long time, he roughly sorted out the outline of what happened, "So, you helped me raise it for more than a month?"

"Yes." An Ran nodded, "I posted a missing person notice for Little Strawberry over there in the commercial plaza to find its owner for more than a month. Didn't you see it?"

She thought that the dog was lost there, and perhaps the life or work trajectory of the dog owner might be there, so she posted a notice for the dog looking for its owner there.

As a result, a month passed and no one contacted her.

"Sorry, I was on a business trip for more than a month and just came back today." Xie Qianxun smiled awkwardly, "I didn't even know my dog ​​was lost."

"But I'm grateful to you, for saving my dog ​​and taking care of it for me for a month."

Xie Qianxun sincerely expressed his gratitude to the girl.

At this time, Little Strawberry probably felt that its owner had not hugged and comforted it for so long. It jumped up unhappily, rubbed against Xie Qianxun's body, kept raising its head and biting his hands and sleeves.

Xie Qianxun wanted to say something to An Ran, but when he saw its slimy appearance, he felt helpless and said, "Don't make trouble. I can only take you home after I say thank you."
