Chapter 146 The Doghouse Takes Away
Xu Youyou peeked inside from outside the door, looking at the mess in the room, which was mostly made up of cardboard boxes stacked on top of each other. She couldn't figure out what was worth finding here.
But this middle-aged couple was still making trouble. They saw that Xu Youyou was dressed like a rich man and looked young, so they took the opportunity to blackmail her.
Xu Youyou was annoyed and said coldly, "If you really want to cheat like this, I will call my lawyer over right now and have her argue with you slowly."
At the same time, Xu Youyou's four bodyguards took a few steps forward and stood in front of Xu Youyou.
The tall bodyguard was filled with murderous aura. He only took two steps closer and the couple couldn't help but feel scared.
The middle-aged man hadn't expected Xu Youyou to be so stubborn. Seeing that he couldn't extort money, he rolled his eyes and said, "Since you came here with my dad's dog, you're also a friend of the family. Now that my dad is gone, you should show some appreciation..."
The policeman and Aunt Wang who works in the community were all so angry that they laughed.
Aunt Wang frowned and said, "Are you asking for a share of the money, or are you blackmailing me? Your father has worked hard for you his whole life. If you have any conscience, you wouldn't do such a thing!"
"Auntie Wang, you can't say such things in front of the police. I am not blackmailing you! Everyone who comes is a guest. It is fate. Maybe this lady is willing to buy peace of mind." The middle-aged man refused to admit to blackmail.
Aunt Wang stopped Xu Youyou: "Don't listen to his nonsense, he's just a scoundrel."
"Poor old man! He lent his house to his grandson for his wedding, and was kicked out to live in this shanty. He's been lying in bed for days. His son lives so close, but he never thought of visiting. Now he's out here pretending to be a filial son and grandson! Ugh!"
The middle-aged man was accused of being unfilial, but he didn't show any embarrassment on his face. Instead, he said with a sad face:
"I have my own difficulties. My father had a hard life. He was labeled a bad element in his early years. After finally getting through it, he became crazy again, studying those crap things all day long. If he had a better brain, he could have stayed at the university and become a professor."
"If he had been a university professor like the other uncles, would I have ended up in such a miserable state? Even now, as his son, I want to give him a grand funeral, but you guys are bullying me like this..."
Aunt Wang listened to this complaint, not only did she not show any emotion, but her face was full of disgust. She pulled Xu Youyou's sleeve and said, "Girl, listen to your aunt. Don't pay any attention to his nonsense. You don't even know this family, so why should you give any money? Just take your people and leave now."
The middle-aged man suddenly became anxious. He wanted to stop it but had no right to do so, fearing that he would lose his share of the money.
But what was unexpected was that Xu Youyou suddenly said, "Since your dog and my dog are friends, if something like this happens, I'll just consider it a loss to avoid disaster."
The police and Aunt Wang were all stunned.
The middle-aged man opened his mobile phone at the speed of light and presented the payment code, his movements were smooth and fluid.
"Four hundred yuan has arrived on WeChat!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man said with a shameless face: "Actually, the membership fee here is usually over a thousand yuan."
Aunt Wang couldn't stand it any longer: "I advise you to quit while you're ahead!"
The police officer frowned and said, "Enough is enough."
The middle-aged man could only reluctantly put away his phone.
The little black dog suddenly started barking, growling at the man a few times, as if threatening him, but also as if angry with him: "Woof woof! Bad guy! You won't give your master any food!"
The middle-aged man raised his foot and wanted to kick him: "You little bastard, my father has no food to eat and still thinks about raising you. I get angry when I see you, and I will stew you into dog meat soup later."
His kick was blocked by Xu Youyou's bodyguard, but the little black dog was still scared and hid behind Xu Youyou.
This couple didn't even care about their own father, so Xu Youyou naturally felt uneasy about leaving the little black dog to them.
"I want to take this dog away." Xu Youyou said.
The middle-aged man's expression changed immediately: "This is my father's favorite puppy. He values it like his life. I won't sell it for less than 10,000!"
The middle-aged man saw that Xu Youyou was willing to pay even for the share of the money for the elderly stranger, and thought that although she looked difficult to talk to, she was actually a soft-hearted person, so she dared to ask for such a high price.
Xu Youyou naturally understood his thoughts and was unwilling to give such a bastard too much money. She said, "One thousand yuan."
Aunt Wang was so anxious that she jumped up and down: "Little girl, don't be fooled by him. He will sell a puppy like this for a hundred yuan! Maybe he can even sell it for fifty!"
The middle-aged man was afraid that his road to wealth would be blocked, so he hurriedly said, "Auntie Wang, please don't talk nonsense! I won't sell it for a hundred yuan! I want at least ten thousand. This is the most precious legacy my father left me!"
Xu Youyou frowned slightly, not wanting to indulge him, and said directly: "Since you are unwilling to sell it for a thousand yuan, then forget it."
The middle-aged man saw the money he had earned was about to fly away, so he didn't dare to be pretentious anymore and said, "Sell, sell, sell! We agreed on a thousand yuan, no regrets!"
Although he felt sorry that Xu Youyou didn't fall for the offer of 10,000 yuan, he knew in his heart that he was lucky to be able to sell it for 1,000 yuan. He took out his mobile phone again on the spot, opened the payment code, and looked at Xu Youyou expectantly.
Xu Youyou didn't rush to pay, but squatted down and touched the little black dog's head, and asked gently: "Little black dog, do you want to go in and accompany your master again?"
The little black dog's dark eyes were full of tears, and it whimpered sweetly: "Woof woof, thank you."
Xu Youyou brought the little black dog into the messy shack.
The little black dog lay close to its owner's bed, barking softly one after another.
"Woof woof! Master, they say you're dead. Is that true? Are you really not sleeping? The Blade King's master wants to take me away, saying I'll be turned into dog meat if I stay. Master, will your children sell all these books in your room? These are your favorite treasures..."
Xu Youyou felt a little sad after hearing this. Although the old man was a little crazy, his feelings for the little black dog were sincere.
The old man must have realized that he was about to die, so he locked the little black dog outside the door.
There was no food left in the house, and the little black dog was outside. Even if he didn't meet his next owner, he could survive by rummaging through the trash cans.
Xu Youyou glanced around the room and found that most of the things in the cardboard boxes were newspapers and old books.
Inadvertently, her sight met the system's golden pointer.
Only then did she notice that the place indicated by the system was a wooden box. The wooden box was placed flat on the ground with a small quilt inside, which looked warm. There was also a simple drawing of a puppy drawn with chalk on the top of the wooden box.
Xu Youyou guessed that this should be the little black dog's kennel.
The middle-aged man was not idle either. He chased into the house, wishing he could shove the payment code into Xu Youyou's eyes and frantically prompt her to pay.
Xu Youyou pretended to be casual and said, "I have to take the doghouse away."
