Chapter 1339 - Let’s Go Home (2/2)
Hao Ren looked back at her and said, “Err, once accepting her look, then it begins to make sense. Let’s not talking about this. Everyone help clean things up. The house has been vacant for some time, I wonder what has happened to the food in the refrigerator. Y’zaks, can you check the cooking gas tank if it needs refilling? Lily, go to help Wuyue clean the house, take out the garbage or something. Sanba, could you please go to the stores and buy some fresh vegetable and meat?”
The great demon and the dog maiden were pretty helpful. But Nangong Sanba was a little lazy after flinging himself on the sofa. “I buy the grocery this time?”
Hao Ren glared at him. “What do you think? The cashier girl might give you some extra onions because of your look. Had I known you could get such favorable treatment, I wouldn’t have asked Vivian to do it a long time ago.”
While saying, Hao Ren went to the main power box, opened the plastic cover, and pushed the lever. The lights in the house instantly lit up with a snap. He especially liked this moment. After away for months, switching on the lights at home was such an enjoyable ‘ceremony.’ It was a signal that symbolized the joy of coming home. Hao Ren looked around with satisfaction and then went up to the upper floor, ready to help clean up the house.
“Big Boss Cat, why are you happy,” Rollie asked as she looked up, seeing Hao Ren’s smiling face. Her tail had curled into a question mark in the air.
“Because he finally got home,” Vivian gently scratched Rollie’s ear and said. But Vivian seemed to be a little worried.
Liveliness had returned to the house after two months of silence. Specifically, it was all hell broke loose again in the house. Everyone was excited about being at home after a long trip. It was especially true for Lily and Rollie, who had turned the place into a madhouse. Had there no organizations such as animal’s rights group and women’s federation, Hao Ren would have thrown the two outside the door.
After dinner, Rollie lay on the sofa and let out a long sigh. “Phew…. home sweet home.”
While saying, Rollie patted the sofa cushion under her body trying to make it into a shape most comfortable to her. After that, she stretched her body again and lay down listlessly.
“Do you still want to go outside?” Hao Ren looked at the cat maiden with a funny look.
Rollie’s furry tail wagged in the air. “Not these two days.”
Hao Ren was speechless.
Lily went into playful mode again after dinner, just like every dog who returned had to check its territory markings. She went upstairs and came back down again like a gust of wind. After visiting every corner of the house, Lily quieted down. She took out her laptop from her room and began to type on the keyboard.
“You still write, eh?” Hao Ren said after taking a glance.
Lily had been following everyone around and looking like an unemployed. Hao Ren had almost forgotten that the maiden was a writer albeit an unknown one. So Hao Ren was always curious when he saw Lily writing with her notebook.
It was a mystery how the maiden could still write as usual while all this while running around like everyone else. But, hey, she still managed to generate some income out of her writings.
“Of course I do, I write for a living. How am I going to pay for the rent if I don’t?” Lily replied without even looking up.
Lily’s words had put everyone in an embarrassing situation as those guys had never paid a single cents of rent while Lily had been doing it faithfully every month.
But did Lily know that she was the only one in the family paying up?
Hao Ren poked his head to take a gander of Lily’s work and was surprised to see the title.
“What’s the story about?” Hao Ren’s eyebrows arched.
“I’ve been writing this book for a year,” Lily said while her fingers still hit the keyboard at 120 words per minute. “I don’t just write reviews on dog food. I’m better at novels.”
“I’m asking about that. Is this a documentary literature?”
It transpired that Lily had started writing the book since a year ago while following Hao Ren around. What surprised Hao Ren was that Lily was the protagonist in the novel, and Lockmarton was killed by her Doggoblast!
Lily looked up at Hao Ren, face serious. “Mr. Landlord, I haven’t updated the novel for nearly two months. Can you please not disturb me?”
Hao Ren suddenly felt it less guilty to receiving rental payment from Lily
Of all the tenants, the husky was the only one getting rich from her adventures with the landlord. This dog was not dumb at all!
