355 Rise as the King of Dogs 1 (1/2)
But as though he had not heard them, Lin Jiage continued to stare at the wall after a few more moments before turning his head to look at Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou, ”I have decided that I want to be together with her!”
Sensing gossip, Xia Shangzhou immediately probed further, ”Who have you decided to get together with? Who? Who? Who?”
Lu Benlai shot a sideward glance at Xia Shangzhou and scoffed, ”Your IQ has never failed to appal me, my grandson. Aren't you asking the obvious? Even if you think with your toes, it's obvious that our boss was referring to Little Junior!”
Xia Shangzhou: ”Oh? It seems like the physical construct of my grandson is extraordinary. I never thought that his brain would be small enough to fit in his toes!

The more Lin Jiage thought about the matter, the more determined he was to put his resolve into action. He clarified, ”What I meant is that apart from the engagement between me and Yaoyao, I wish to have a deeper relationship with her.”
Lu Benlai: ”How deep do you want to go?”
