The Command to Pamper the Husband - Chapter 10
The scene was too chaotic, and Song Jin hurriedly ran towards Shen Yue.
Who knew if this Master Shen from the capital knew martial arts?
What if the case wasn’t solved, and he got bitten by a dog instead?
There were no rabies vaccines in ancient times.
If he died, it would probably bring trouble to the Song family!
Too risky, too risky~
However, despite Song Jin’s swift run, the big black dog was even faster.
Almost like a shadow, the dog reached Shen Yue before Song Jin could cover half the distance. It barked fiercely at him, its barks were terrifyingly vicious.
Shen Yue’s face turned pale. He clenched his fists reflexively, wanting to glance around but held back.
Those people must be nearby.
If he looked around, he might expose himself.
The only thing he could do was…
Shen Yue glanced sideways at Sun Qiyao.
Sun Qiyao, who had been arrogant just moments ago, was now pale with fear. “Oh my, a dog!”
Following Sun Qiyao’s lead, Shen Yue raised his little handkerchief.
…
Seeing the beauty in distress, Zhao Ke rushed over.
In the next moment, Song Jin and Zhao Ke both stood protectively in front of their respective women.
Song Jin turned back to look at Shen Yue, who was pale with fright, and then focused on the dog.
Whether it was because of Song Jin’s fierce gaze or because the dog was tired of barking, it whimpered and stopped barking.
Moreover, its eyes seemed… sad??
However…
Just as the big black dog gave up barking, Wan Xi rushed over and grabbed the dog by its neck.
Song Jin…
She looked at Wan Xi in shock, remembering that Wan Xi was quite strong!
“Whose stray dog is this? If no one claims it, I’ll take it home for dog meat!”
The dog, uncomfortable being held by the neck, struggled constantly.
Wan Xi’s expression was as fierce as she could make it.
More and more people gathered around. In the crowd, a burly man hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward with an apologetic look.
“Please forgive me, this is my dog. I wasn’t careful and let it run out, frightening everyone.”
As soon as this man appeared, Shen Yue nudged Song Jin in the waist from behind.
Song Jin shifted slightly, standing side by side with Shen Yue, and whispered, “Do you know him?”
Shen Yue replied, “We need to leave quickly.”
Song Jin immediately understood.
This dog was probably not an ordinary dog, and its owner was likely the one trying to assassinate Shen Yue.
The dog had caught Shen Yue’s scent, which was why it charged at him.
Realizing this, Song Jin looked at the man again and noticed that while he spoke, his eyes kept darting towards Shen Yue.
Song Jin’s face darkened. She stepped forward and slapped the man across the face.
“Why do you keep staring at my wife? What are you planning?”
Caught off guard by the slap, the man’s eyes flickered with anger, but he controlled himself.
He lowered his head and apologized, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
Song Jin snorted, “My wife is not someone you can look at. Do you think you deserve it? Take your dog and leave!”
As Song Jin finished speaking, Wan Xi fiercely threw the big black dog at the man.
The big black dog, quite agile, flipped in the air and landed on its feet.
It then turned to look at Song Jin.
Song Jin glared at the dog suspiciously and then turned to Shen Yue with concern. “Are you alright? Were you scared? Go sit in the carriage; I’ll buy you some osmanthus cakes to calm your nerves.”
With the fierce dog controlled, Sun Qiyao, with tear-filled eyes, clutched her handkerchief and looked at Song Jin with a broken heart.
Seeing Song Jin being so gentle and caring towards his new bride, Sun Qiyao felt as if her heart was being torn apart.
“Song Jin, from now on, you are you, and I am me. I, Sun Qiyao, will never forgive you, you heartless man!”
With that, she ran off crying.
Zhao Ke hurriedly chased after her.
Once they left, the Song family’s carriage was ready to depart. The onlookers, having seen enough, began to disperse.
However, just as the crowd was about to scatter and Song Jin was about to mount her horse, the black dog suddenly lunged at her.
“Whoa~”
Gasps of shock erupted from the crowd.
Everyone gathered around again.
Startled, Song Jin instinctively kicked at the dog, but it stopped a few steps in front of her and wagged its tail.
Song Jin…
The black dog’s eyes, like black pearls, sparkled with a flattering shine, and its tail wagged happily.
Wan Xi stood next to Song Jin, puzzled. “Young Master, why does this dog seem to like you?”
Song Jin…
The burly man, apparently surprised by his dog’s behavior, hesitated for a moment, then whistled. “Come here!”
The dog turned to look at the man. Taking advantage of its distraction, Song Jin quickly mounted her horse.
However, in that split second, the dog suddenly went berserk and lunged at the man.
With a bark, it bit the man’s leg.
“Whoa~”
The crowd gasped again!
What was happening?
The dog was attacking its own owner?!
Song Jin…
Wan Xi…
They exchanged shocked glances and turned to watch the dog and the man.
Caught off guard by his own dog’s attack, the man fell to the ground in pain.
He fell, but the dog didn’t. Like a brave warrior, it jumped on him and started scratching and biting wildly.
Should someone intervene?
The onlookers hesitated.
The man-dog battle lasted for about as long as a cup of tea. The man finally jumped up, with his leg a bloody mess, and kicked at the dog.
The dog seemed to anticipate this. As he kicked, it leapt over his head and darted towards Song Jin.
Song Jin…
Was this dog mad?
After attacking its owner, was it now coming for her?
Song Jin drew her sword, but the dog didn’t attack her. It just glanced at her before dashing into the crowd.
Cries of surprise rang out, and the people parted to let the dog run through.
Once the dog disappeared, people turned to look for the man, but he was gone too.
All that was left was a pool of blood, evidence of the earlier man-dog battle.
The Song family carriage set off.
After a while, Wan Xi pulled a small jade pendant from her sleeve and handed it to Song Jin.
Song Jin frowned.
Wan Xi whispered, “The big black dog dropped it beside me. I stepped on it and picked it up after the man left.”
Was this jade pendant the man’s?
Thinking that the man might be the one trying to kill Shen Yue, Song Jin quickly put the pendant away without looking at it.
I’ll check it at home.
