Chapter 621: Dog Taozi
"What did you do today? I haven't seen you all day?"
As soon as Tang Tang got home, Dou Dou blocked her path, crossing her arms and asking her.
"han~"
Tang Tang handed the half-eaten sugar figure she was gnawing on to Dou Dou.
Her small cheeks were covered in sugar threads left from eating the candy, dusty all over, like a little flower cat.
"No way I'm eating yours, it's filthy, and besides, I can't eat anything." Dou Dou took a step back with a look of disdain.
It was really dirty. The lollipop shaped like a little duck, half of it was licked away by her, and the remaining half was covered in her saliva, sticky, and filthy.
Seeing Dou Dou's disdain and her refusal to eat it, she then glanced at Xiao Yue and Duoduo.
Xiao Yue and Duoduo naturally showed the same disdain.
"I'm going to take a shower."
Shen Siyuan, who was watching the fun on the side, walked to his room without looking back.
"Wait, I'll go with you," Ruan Hongzhuang said quickly.
Then hurriedly went along with Shen Siyuan to the room.
Taozi was a bit dazed, completely unaware of what was happening. It was only when Tang Tang looked at her that she realized.
"I'm cutting back on sugar to lose weight, not eating candy," Taozi made up an excuse.
But Tang Tang had no idea what she was saying, still looking at her with clear eyes, a silly smile on her face, holding the half-eaten sugar figure high.
Her little expression melted Taozi's heart, and she couldn't bear to refuse. Just as she was about to agree, Mao Sanmei came over.
She was slow to react because she couldn't hear the sounds. It was only when she saw Shen Siyuan enter the living room that she realized her daughter was back.
"Ah... ah..."
Mao Sanmei gestured with her hands, joy filling her eyes.
Seeing her, Tang Tang naturally handed the sugar figure to her.
"Oh~"
Tang Tang looked on in anticipation.
And without thinking, Mao Sanmei lowered her head and took a small bite without any hint of disdain.
"Sweet, han~"
Tang Tang grinned, showing a happy smile.
Mao Sanmei gave her a thumbs up, then reached out and picked her up.
Seeing her filthy little face, she reached out a finger to poke it gently, then leaned in to sniff around her neck, followed by a smile.
"Ah~"
She pointed towards the direction of the bathroom.
And by this time, Taozi had already taken the opportunity to sneak away; she was going to take a shower too.
As for Dou Dou and the other three, they had long since run off and were playing with the two dogs in the living room.
Duoduo and Dou Dou had each named their beloved dogs.
Duoduo's Bichon Frise, pure white all over, fluffy like a cotton candy, so Duoduo named it Cotton Candy.
As for Dou Dou's short-legged Corgi, it waddled as it walked, with a big butt swaying like a peach, and its fur was yellow, so Dou Dou named it Huangtao, or Peach for short.
Taozi had a lot to say about this, and when she caught Dou Dou, she gave her a good spanking on the butt. Dou Dou immediately realized her mistake but just wouldn't change, so the two dogs officially got their names.
The dogs had tons of energy, and Duoduo and Dou Dou weren't lacking in that department either, getting along perfectly.
Luckily, the spacious lounge was big enough for their antics.
Only Xiao Yue quietly watched her phone on the side; it was Ruan Hongzhuang who bought it for her.
She thought that apart from reading, Xiao Yue didn't have many activities and might get bored, so she bought her a new phone to play with when she had nothing else to do.
And then—
In just a few days, Xiao Yue became obsessed with her phone.
But it wasn't a big problem. For Xiao Yue, who practically had infinite life—so long as Shen Siyuan was alive, she wouldn't perish—absorbing more information was the better choice.
Then, when Shen Siyuan emerged from the shower, he saw the two dogs riding on Dou Dou and Duoduo's backs as the two crawled around on the floor.
Shen Siyuan: …
"These little devils..."
Taozi, following behind, also looked speechless.
Seeing Taozi, Dou Dou immediately lifted her head and said, "Auntie, do you want to play together?"
"I'm not playing your silly game." Taozi retorted with a hint of amusement.
Dou Dou immediately turned her head to the side to look at Duoduo, who was lying on the floor, and said, "Auntie called you a fool."
Upon hearing this, Duoduo promptly raised her head to look at Taozi.
"I was talking about you," Taozi grumbled.
Dou Dou widened her eyes, puffing out her cheeks and staring at her.
"What? Want to fight me?" Taozi put her hands on her hips and asked.
"You only bully kids," Dou Dou complained.
"I do bully kids, so what?"
Taozi shamelessly admitted, standing there with pride, exuding a particular blend of clear and dumb charm.
But Dou Dou wasn't easy to bully.
Seeing this, she pulled Huangtao, who was riding on her back, down.
"Taozi, let me ride you."
Dou Dou said, preparing to straddle Huangtao's back.
Taozi: …
"Do you want a spanking?" Taozi raised her-brows, pretending to be menacing.
But Dou Dou wasn't scared of her at all.
"Why would you spank me? I'm riding Huangtao the dog, not you," Dou Dou said confidently with her hands on her hips.
The two stood facing each other, their posture identical, effortlessly amusing onlookers.
Taozi couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.
"Still being sly with me."
Taozi reached out to grab her, only to grab air as Dou Dou disappeared from in front of her.
When she pulled her hand back, Dou Dou reappeared to the side.
"Hehe, you can't catch me... you can't catch me..."
She stuck out her tongue, patted her bottom, and taunted Taozi.
"Si Yuan..."
Taozi directly turned her head to look at Shen Siyuan, who was watching excitedly from the sofa.
Seeing this, Dou Dou immediately widened her eyes, waving her little hands, and shouted, "That's cheating. That's cheating."
"Hmph, aren't you cheating too? Do you dare stop going invisible?"
"Why can't I go invisible? It's my ability." Dou Dou retorted with confidence.
Taozi was speechless.
"Then I'll ask Si Yuan for help."
"Potato loves me the most, he won't help you," Dou Dou said confidently.
"Oh? Really?"
Taozi turned her head to look at the couch again, only to realize Shen Siyuan had already disappeared.
Taozi: …
"Hahaha..." Dou Dou stood with her hands on her hips, tilting her head back, laughing triumphantly.
Then Taozi suddenly launched a sneak attack, tapping a knuckle on her little head, abruptly stopping Dou Dou's laughter.
"Laugh, why aren't you laughing?" Taozi asked smugly.
"I'm going to fight you," Dou Dou said, headbutting into Taozi's embrace in anger.
Then the two of them tumbled into a mess.
You tickled me, I pinched your belly, neither giving in.
"What fools."
Duoduo quietly crawled away.
"Woof woof."
The ball of fur on her back seemed to be agreeing with her.
Xiao Yue lifted her eyes from her phone, glanced at them, twitched her lips, then continued diving into her phone.
Over on the balcony, Shen Siyuan was waiting for Granny Cui and Lu Jiawei, who returned promptly according to their usual timing.
Granny Cui just nodded slightly to Shen Siyuan in appreciation.
But Lu Jiawei appeared hesitant, as if wanting to say something but not knowing how.
PS: My headache is getting worse; I'll finish the rest of it tomorrow.
