At this time, there seemed to be a dispute at a telegraph pole ahead.The urban management pushed and shoved a middle-aged man wrapped in a ragged padded jacket, and kept driving him away.When the two got closer, they realized that the middle-aged man was holding a bunch of leaflets, which were posted in every corner.The urban management felt that he was polluting the cityscape and asked him to clean up all the leaflets stuck on him.

The middle-aged man was a little excited, clapping the flyer with his hands, and made some excuses, before being severely whipped on the leg by the stick.Rong Jing couldn't understand his accent, so he asked Ji Lixuan what he said.

Ji Lixuan said: "He said that he was looking for an adoption for his dog." He watched the urban management with a fierce look on his face, raised his stick high, frowned, and rushed to block the middle-aged man before the stick was swung down. .

The stick swung down anyway, and was stopped by Rong Jing.Seeing that he was an alpha, the urban management officer's expression and attire revealed a dignified temperament, his aura suddenly weakened, and he lost the arrogance of facing a middle-aged man.

Ji Lixuan took the middle-aged man aside and patiently explained to him that it is not allowed to stick leaflets on telephone poles.The middle-aged man had a scumbag beard, and the cotton jacket on his body was worn for many years. It was dirty and torn, and the cotton wadding squeezed out from the holes was black. His body exuded a sour smell like fermentation. Blow, lightly diffuse in the air.

He probably didn't understand why the leaflets couldn't be pasted on the telephone poles, and the explanation couldn't make any sense. He pulled Ji Lixuan, chattered for a while in a dialect with a strong accent, and pointed to the puppy on the leaflet.

Ji Lixuan understood that this person had to go out to work, and he had a puppy at home, so he couldn't send it out, and no one took care of him.He was afraid that if he stayed in the village, he would be beaten to death and eaten as dog meat.I just want to find a good home for the puppy before I leave.

The middle-aged man suddenly said, "Do you want my repair hook?"

I don't know what method Rong Jing used to solve the two urban management, and walked over here.Seeing the middle-aged man's dark hands grabbing Ji Lixuan's wrist, he frowned slightly.

"What puppy?" He asked, pulling the middle-aged man's hand away from Ji Lixuan's.I don't know how long this hand hasn't been washed, it directly left five black finger marks on Ji Lixuan's snow-white wrist, Rong Jing frowned even deeper, and frowning, he wiped Ji Lixuan clean.

Not noticing Rong Jing's small movements, Ji Lixuan took the leaflet, which was a blurry photo, and saw a three- to four-month-old Alaskan staring at the camera with its head tilted.Ji Lixuan's heart was hit.Seems really, really cute?

Ji Lixuan's expression is eager to raise, but he hesitates for some reason.Rong Jing took his look into his eyes and encouraged him softly: "It's cute, let's raise it."

Ji Lixuan thought for a while, but still shook his head: "Ji Yang has rhinitis, so there should be no fluffy things at home."

Rong Jing said, "Don't you usually live in an apartment? It's okay to keep you in the apartment, too."

It can be kept in an apartment, but before picking up the dog, it has to spend a period of time at home.Ji Lixuan glanced at the man in front of him and asked him when he would leave.The middle-aged man said that he would leave within two days at most, and if the puppy couldn't be sent out, he could only take him with him outside the province on a motorcycle.Pets are not allowed on long-distance trains, and there are flights specially checked for fur children, but he can't afford the money.

Ji Lixuan looked at him blankly.Rong Jing was heartbroken by his subconscious look of pleading for help. I'm afraid no alpha could keep his head clear when being stared at by such a beautiful omega.

"You can keep it at my house first," he said.

Rong Jing doesn't like small animals, but he doesn't hate them either. More importantly, he can take the opportunity to get closer to Ji Lixuan.

So it was settled.The man took back the flyer, said he wanted to go home to take the dog, and walked back, with a rare look of shame on his dry black face: "I have no money to go home, can you lend me some money for travel expenses?"

Ji Lixuan seldom used cash, and so did Rong Jing. The two of them added up their pocket change to give him 200 yuan.The two parties exchanged contact information, and the middle-aged man turned around and got out of the crowd.

After Lin Keyi and Ji Yang finished shopping, they asked him to go home.Ji Lixuan talked about raising a puppy. Before the middle-aged man left, he didn't say where his home was, how long it would take to pick up the puppy, and when he would come back.Ji Yang and Lin Keyi waited for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Ji Lixuan asked them to take the packed egg dumplings and small wontons and go back first.At this time, two hours had passed, pointing to five o'clock in the afternoon.

Rong Jing and Ji Lixuan found a roadside tea stand and sat down.Ji Lixuan was a little obviously happy. He usually doesn't show his emotions too much, and he always holds it proudly. Rong Jing rarely sees him so expressively exposed.He seems to really like dogs.I also discussed with him what to name the dog.The corner of Rong Jing's mouth curled up slightly, thinking that he was right to encourage this time.

Another two hours passed.It gets dark early in winter, and the market is over long ago. Even the boss of the tea stall yelled at his children to eat.At the beginning, the excitement of knowing that he was about to adopt a puppy was gone, but now Ji Lixuan calmed down and glanced at his watch: "He couldn't be lying to us, right? Why don't you call and ask."

Rong Jing called, but the other party said he was still on his way and would be there soon.

Ji Lixuan said, "It's not a lie, is it?"

Rong Jing comforted him: "If you're lying, get the money and you're done. I won't answer the phone later."

When Ji Lixuan thought about it, it made sense.Another two hours passed, and it was the third call from Ji's mother urging her to go home. In this call, she said that Ji's father had arrived.

Ji Lixuan was surprised: "So fast?"

According to the distance between Jing'an City and Baishui Village, if Ji's father wanted to arrive at this time, he must have left the company and rushed to the village within half an hour of receiving Ji Yang's call at most.Now I heard from Ji Yang that this man was very upset because his whole family had returned to Baishui Village, but no one had notified him.

He put away his mobile phone, and the tea stall owner had already closed, and the two of them sat on the steps under the Buddhist altar, blowing the cold wind for two hours.Ji Lixuan stood up, pulled Rong Jing up as well, and laughed twice: "It seems to be a lie, there is no puppy at home."

Rong Jing said, "I'll call him again."

Ji Lixuan shook his head: "It's late, let's go."

He left first, Rong Jing stood on the spot and glanced back, took a breath into his palms, put his hands in his pockets, and followed him.The mountain road home was already bumpy, and it was getting late and the light was dim, so it took about an hour's drive to go back.When Ji Lixuan came home, Ji's father and Ji's mother had already fallen asleep, and it was Lin Ke who came to open the door.

Going to the market for a long time, and waiting for a long time in the cold wind.Ji Lixuan was already tired, so he said goodnight to Rong Jing, went back to his room and washed up, and fell asleep.It was still the same room he used to live in, and he even found the little figures pasted on the wall when he was a child. When he stood by the window, he could see the swaying shadows of pagoda trees at the entrance of the village.

I slept deeply and dreamed about some past events.For a while, it was picking herbs in the back mountain of Baishui Village, for a while it was fishing in the stream, and there was a scene of visiting the nearby sacred Taoist mountain.Bits and pieces, and so on.Only the last scene lasted for a long time. It seemed to be an autumn, with thick fallen leaves piled up under his feet. He carried a bamboo basket and stepped up the mountain full of maple red, but he heard crying from the woods.

He followed the crying sound, and came to a tree hole, in which there was a child carved with jade, crying very sadly.A very young child, about four or five years old.I don't know which family's adults are so careless that they lost their children here.

"What's the matter with you?" Ji Lixuan asked softly when he heard himself squatting down.

The little doll wiped away her tears and looked at him with wet eyes: "I'm lost."

He talked and coaxed the child a lot, and finally coaxed the child out of the tree hole.He found that the child was injured, and was just about to carry him down the mountain to seek medical treatment, the second the child's tender, lotus-like arms were wrapped around his neck, Ji Lixuan was awakened by the sudden ringing of the phone.

He took out his mobile phone with sleepy eyes. The clock showed that it was four o'clock in the morning, and the caller was Rong Jing.Ji Lixuan was a little annoyed at getting up, his heart was furious, and he answered the phone: "You'd better find a reasonable reason to wake me up at four o'clock in the morning, otherwise you brat, you'll just wait to be cleaned up."

Rong Jing's tone was hurried, as if he had no time to explain: "Come out!"

Ji Lixuan didn't hang up the phone, got out of bed, pulled cotton mop, and walked to the gate.Rong Jing was standing just outside the door, he could hear his gasp from the cold, and another wheezing sound of something.

Ji Lixuan pushed open the door, and a ball of black and white, fluffy, warm and soft stuff was stuffed into his arms.He was startled, and looked closely at the things in his arms, extremely surprised: "Puppy?"

It's an Alaska of about three months old. It's a simple-minded person with grape-like black and round eyes. It's the one on the leaflet.

Ji Lixuan was half surprised and half happy, thinking he was still in a dream.He had already given up hope of adopting this puppy, how could he—?

Ji Lixuan raised his eyes to look at Rong Jing, the dim street lamps of Baishui Village stood in front of the wooden gate, the sky was bright and clear, and the night sky above his head was inlaid with bright stars that had been entrenched throughout the ages.At the moment when he looked up, it seemed as if all the starlight had fallen into these amorous and bright eyes.Rong Jing missed a beat of breath.

"How did you receive this puppy?" Ji Lixuan asked, and he came back to his senses.She curled her lips and said complainingly: "You only care about it, didn't you see that I was almost frozen?"

Ji Lixuan thought he was joking, but when he took a closer look through the street lamp, Rong Jing's eyebrows were covered with a layer of hoarfrost, it was too cold, and his face turned red like a low-grade fever.

Ji Lixuan was startled, Rong Jing pushed him into the door and said, "Go to your room."

Ji Lixuan just let him in in such a daze, and took him to his room.There is no air conditioner or floor heating in the old room, only an electric oven in the corner emitting warm light.Ji Lixuan brought him the oven and said, "Wait a minute, I'll pour you some hot water."

He was about to go out, but the Alaskan cub in his arms barked twice, and he realized that he had been holding the dog and hadn't put it down, so he quickly put it in the house, rubbed the dog's head twice, and then took it to Rong Rong. Jing poured hot water.

As soon as Ji Lixuan left, the trembling of Rong Jing's whole body stopped, and the disguise of being extremely cold was also removed.He stood up and walked around Ji Lixuan's room casually, looking at the pictorials on the wall, the water glasses and tablet computer on the table.

He took a deep breath, feeling like a pervert.But it's really... so fragrant.

The room is full of rose pheromones that the omega in estrus is undefended.The door opened, Ji Lixuan came in with water, Rong Jing sat down immediately, pretending to be a little warmer, but still shivering from the cold.

Ji Lixuan tested the temperature on the back of his hand, and he shivered from the ice, and asked Rong Jing to hold the cup and cover his hand.He knelt down by himself and teased Alaska fondly.Alaska was hungry, and the little meat ball sat on the spot weakly, chattering.Ji Lixuan pulled on his slippers and went outside to let some sausage and warm water in for him.The conditions can only be like this, and it is a temporary decision to keep a dog, and the dog food will only be available at the morning market at the earliest.

Seeing that he cared more about the dog than himself, Rong Jing snorted, and when Alaska came over to rub his trousers, the long legs pushed the puppy away in disgust.

Ji Lixuan took a chair and sat down, rubbing Alaska's fluffy round head while he was buried in his food, and then he remembered the question he asked Rong Jing before: "How did you get him?"

After Rong Jing drove him back, he called the middle-aged man again.The man was still on his way, and the howling cold wind could almost blow in through the phone receiver.After Rong Jing asked, he found out that his family lived in Qianxi Village, more than 80 kilometers away from the market, and he didn't know why he came here to find a dog to adopt.After Ji Lixuan washed up and went to bed, the man picked up the puppy from home.Rong Jing thought for a while, didn't rest much, put on his coat again, and went back to the county town to wait.After waiting for almost seven hours, with his face stiffened by blowing, the man arrived late.

After the handover between the two was over, Rong Jing held the puppy in his arms, and couldn't wait for dawn, so he stood at the door of his house and made a phone call as soon as he returned to the village.

It was only now that Ji Lixuan knew that Rong Jing had waited for seven hours in the cold winter night in order to pick up a puppy for him.He froze for a moment, and at the same time it was unbelievable, perhaps because of guilt, a shallow warm current poured from the heart to all the limbs.

It is always difficult for people to believe in things that are different from their previous perceptions.Just like he thought that the man who gave the dog was lying, just like he once believed that this Rong Jing was no different from the previous world.

But the facts presented before his eyes told him that everything was not like this.

The author has something to say:

He made a meal once, and it can't be said to be unpalatable.Brother Xuan smiled and asked coquettishly, "My husband, is the meal I cook delicious?" Gougou finished eating with tears in his eyes, and was sent to the hospital for food poisoning that night
