Chapter 173 Lead the way (1/2)

———-

The dark night turns to day as the sun rises into the sky to welcome the people in Imperial a good morning. Soundly asleep in her king sized bed, Yue Ling's brows knit together before she wakes up. Unlike her usual morning, she did not stretch, but sat up.

Her beautiful face was one of downhearted as her bluish green eyes stare straight ahead into nothing.Unknowingly to her, a bead of tear slowly slid it's way down from her eyes.

”Woof.....”

Inu looks worriedly at his mommy. He had heard her cry while sleeping. The way she looked was like one who was trapped in a very sad dream.

Yue Ling breaks from her trance and slowly turn her head. Seeing her favorite Samoyed, her lip curl into a faint smile that didn't reach her eyes.

”I'm alright....”

Lifting her hand, she gently wipes away her tears. Then she rubs Inu's soft and fluffy head. Even she did not know why she cried, especially in her sleep.

Looking around the bed, she sees that Lu Tian had already woken up. She moves to comforter and walks to the bathroom.

*shaaaaaaah*

The bathroom door closes and soon after came the water shower. Inu laid on the bed and waits for his mommy.

*shaaaaaah*

However, 30 minutes pass by and soon it came close to an hour. Lifting his head, he looks at the tightly shut door. His mommy doesn't usually take long showers in the morning. Quickly, he jumps down from the bed and runs out of the room. As he enters the kitchen, he sees his greatest enemy calmly preparing breakfast. Going to the man's side, he opens his mouth.

”*chomp* Grrrr...”

Feeling his loungepants being tug, Lu Tian looks down at the white fluff ball. He frowns as Inu continues to tug the end of his pants as if wanting him to follow.

”What is it?”

”Wroof! Wroof!”

Knowing he has gotten the man's attention, Inu let's go of the pant. He runs to the entrance of the hallway and half jumps. His front paws hitting hard against the floor.

”Wroof! Grr... Wroof!”

Lu Tian looks at Inu and he arch a brow. Getting the hint, he turns back to the stove and turns it off.

”Alright, I'm following. Lead the way.”

He puts the spatula down and follows Inu to the bedroom. Stepping inside, he frowns at the empty bed. When he woke up, Yue Ling was still sleeping. He didn't even hear her get up.

”Wroof.”

Turning his head, he sees Inu sit by the closed bathroom door. The faint sound of water running enters his ears. Looking at Inu, he pout his lip.

”She's taking a shower.”

”Woof!”

Inu stayed seated in his spot. His eyes glaring up at Lu Tian as if saying, 'hurry up and open the door!!' Sighing, Lu Tian pinch the space between his brows.

”She's only showering. Why are you making such a big deal?”

”Woof! Woof!”

”Fine. I'll check on her.”

He reach for the door knob, but before turning it, he looks down at Inu.

”This was your idea.”
