Chapter 4
What Do You Think?
“Woof woof!”
Gu Zi was taken aback when she heard the dog barking. Turning towards the sound, she saw a Tibetan Mastiff, about the height of a person, charging straight at her.
Aunt Chu, who was standing at the door, watched Gu Zi’s face turn pale in fear with a smirk on her face.
The Su family’s dog was particularly fierce and loved to bite people. If it weren’t for Su Shen’s instructions, she might have been bitten by that dog.
Gu Zi?
That seemed to be the name.
She wanted to see if Gu Zi would still be able to show off in front of her after having one of her legs bitten off by a Tibetan Mastiff.
This Gu Zi was not more than a vixen who owed money and refused to return it. How dare she try to show off in front of her.
Gu Zi froze in place when she saw the dog charging towards her, but the next moment, the dog obediently sat down at her feet.
Even so, Gu Zi was still very flustered.
At that moment, she felt someone tugging at her clothes. She looked down and saw a dirty little girl sitting on the ground, looking up at her.
The Tibetan Mastiff sat beside the little girl, wearing a big smile.
Gu Zi looked at the dirty little girl with tangled, messy hair. Despite her appearance, the girl was adorable, with round, big eyes fixed on Gu Zi.
“Yiya yiya…” The little girl made babbling sounds and smiled sweetly, looking up at Gu Zi.
Gu Zi bent down and picked up the little girl. She looked to be about two years old and didn’t seem to be able to speak yet.
Gu Zi took a white rabbit candy from her pocket, unwrapped it, and put it in the little girl’s mouth. The little girl happily wiggled her tiny feet.
Aunt Chu, who was standing at the side, rolled her eyes in disgust and said sarcastically, “Oh, look at that, the act starts as soon as you step in. No matter how well you perform, it won’t change the fact that you’re a wicked woman with malicious intentions.”
Gu Zi looked at the Tibetan Mastiff and then at Aunt Chu who was standing not far away. She originally thought that Aunt Chu would play some tricks to make things difficult for her in the future, but now it seemed that she was wrong.
Aunt Chu was so impatient for her to leave as soon as possible that she brought the Tibetan Mastiff over.
When the Tibetan Mastiff had lunged at her earlier, it was so ferocious and looked as if it would kill Buddha if Buddha blocked its way. Perhaps it was because of the little girl’s presence that it had stopped its attack.
Gu Zi helped the dirty little girl tidy up her hair and calmly said, “This dog was probably locked in the backyard, right? It doesn’t look like an ordinary dog. It must have bitten quite a few people.”
Gu Zi noticed Aunt Chu’s haughty attitude as she stood nearby, seemingly unfazed. She continued, “It seems you do know that this dog has bitten people before. Well, I’ll wait for Su Shen to come, and then I’ll report it to the police.”
Aunt Chu wrinkled her brow slightly and quickly walked up to Gu Zi, looking down at her condescendingly. She questioned, “Report it to the police? What are you going to report, you little wretch? Do you dare report it? Before you can even report it, I’ll teach you a lesson you won’t forget!”
“Attempted murder. I think that might land you in jail for a few years,” Gu Zi said calmly.
Aunt Chu met Gu Zi’s cold eyes. She felt as if she was in an ice cellar and could not move. “You… You’re talking nonsense!”
“I’m talking nonsense?” Gu Zi glanced at the Tibetan Mastiff beside her and smiled faintly. “Do you really have no intention of letting the dog harm me?”
Aunt Chu clenched her teeth, trying to defend herself, “I’m not a murderer!”
“Well, attempted murder. Don’t worry; the police will make sure you spend some extra years behind bars,” Gu Zi said indifferently, seeing Aunt Chu’s panic. She then cast a sidelong glance at the Tibetan Mastiff. “But, you know, maybe we can discuss this…”
Aunt Chu, who was desperate, was eager to hear what Gu Zi had in mind. She was afraid that Gu Zi would make a big demand, but she couldn’t afford to refuse.
Aunt Chu knew that Gu Zi had dug a pit for her, but she still jumped into it willingly. Aunt Chu asked cautiously, “What… What do you want me to do?”
Gu Zi looked up at Aunt Chu, and upon seeing that the other party was a little flustered, the smile on her face became even more obvious. “Don’t you know?”
Then, she kicked the ball in front of Aunt Chu.
Aunt Chu pursed her lips slightly and looked at Gu Zi with a complicated expression. After a long time, she said, “What exactly is it you want me to do for you?”
Gu Zi smiled. “What do you think?”
Aunt Chu, “Nothing good obviously!”
