Liu Chang'an, An Nuan, Han Zhizhi walked out of the ward together.

The ward immediately felt less crowded. An elderly woman with white hair but a rosy complexion walked in, glanced at the others in the room, nimbly rolled onto the bed, hummed a couple of times, and then took out her phone to play.

"Since there is currently no legislation in China regarding animal sexual harassment, my lawyer told me that I cannot sue you." Seeing that Liu Chang'an had left, Zhu Juntang had no interest in staying any longer in this place filled with the smell of disinfectant, and prepared to leave as well.

"Your dog bit me so badly I had to be hospitalized, and you were planning to sue me?" Wu Fan was so angry he didn't want to say anything.

"In short, you shouldn't show up at Baolong Center again." Zhu Juntang nodded, not denying it.

"Heh, what's it to you?" Wu Fan sneered angrily. "Is Baolong Center your property?"

"It's from my family."

"What did you say?" Wu Fan was taken aback.

"Baolong Center is mine, all Baolong Center across the country belong to my family." Zhu Juntang didn't boast, but simply stated the facts. He then had his bodyguard open the door and left. Zhu Juntang was too lazy to show off to people who were unimportant.

"You don't even think before you brag..." Wu Fan lay stiffly for a while before tentatively looking at Zhong Qing.

Zhong Qing ignored Wu Fan and did not testify for Zhu Juntang. Whether he believed it or not, no one cared.

Zhu Juntang left the hospital, looked at the unsightly flowers, plants and trees in the flower bed, and then thought that the terrible things Liu Chang'an had mentioned must have drained the life force of these flowers, plants and trees, otherwise how could they be so ugly? Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the plants in any hospital had a deep and not fresh feeling.

So Zhu Juntang quickened her pace. Although she was a fairy, she was also a delicate and beautiful young girl, and it was normal that she couldn't resist those things that coveted her vibrant life.

"Where's my dog?" Zhu Juntang asked.

"They've been locked up. Generally speaking, dogs that have bitten people are no longer suitable to be guard dogs; their tendency to attack is too strong."

"Oh, then I'll give it to Liu Chang'an." Zhu Juntang thought for a moment and said, finding a very suitable excuse, and excitedly ran out to chase after him.

Liu Chang'an and An Nuan Han Zhizhi have already separated. That evening, Liu Yuewang and Professor Ling had arranged to have dinner together, and invited two girls to accompany them. They also planned to go shopping, but Liu Chang'an naturally didn't want to join in the fun.

Liu Chang'an didn't go anywhere; he just stood at the crossroads in front of the hospital, watching the cars and people come and go.

This is a typical scenario in modern society. Increased productivity has led to advancements in various technologies and civilizations, resulting in a population explosion. Life expectancy has increased from 20 or 30 years to 70 or 80 years, which would have been unimaginable a hundred or two hundred years ago.

For Liu Chang'an, these were all relatively distant eras. He had been isolated in one place for hundreds of thousands or even millions of years. In reality, the Earth hadn't changed much, except for the evolution and extinction of some organisms and the transformation of the land surface. However, Liu Chang'an could hardly imagine what the world would be like a hundred years from now.

Liu Chang'an was used to being like an ordinary teenager when he was with the people around him, but when he was alone, he would have many comparisons and sighs.

What should we eat tonight? How about some oxtail stew with taro? Just thinking about it makes my mouth water!

Liu Chang'an!

Liu Chang'an turned around and saw Zhu Juntang. A tall bodyguard was running towards Zhu Juntang from the other side of the zebra crossing, leading a black Rottweiler.

"Why don't you call me the Sect Master the Nine Provinces Wind-Thunder Nonsense Sect anymore?" Liu Chang'an looked at Zhu Juntang.

"I've noticed that you actually look quite handsome when you're lost in thought," Zhu Juntang casually complimented her Sect Master.

"Temperament is an intuitive perception of cultivation and inner qualities, while handsome is often used to describe appearance and physical performance," Liu Chang'an corrected.

"Would you like to get a dog?" Zhu Juntang revealed her true purpose; otherwise, why would she have complimented him first?

Liu Chang'an glanced at the black Rottweiler.

The Rottweiler, tongue lolling out, raised its head and met Liu Chang'an's calm gaze. Suddenly, it whimpered, as if something was pressing down on its back, and lay down flat on the ground.

"Does it have rabies?" Zhu Juntang was startled. Dogs with this disease often tremble all over, just like the High Templar in front of her.

"No," the bodyguard answered Zhu Juntang with certainty. He had received his vaccinations on time, and since he had bitten someone today, he had naturally been checked as well.

"But it seems very scared. Does it know it did something wrong and is afraid I won't want it anymore?" Zhu Juntang bent down and stroked the dog's head. "Good boy, you didn't do anything wrong. Someone else was trying to provoke you."

Liu Chang'an wasn't particularly interested in live dogs. If a dog died for various reasons and was still edible, Liu Chang'an wouldn't waste it, but he also wouldn't go and kill the dog just to eat dog meat.

"It bit someone before, and I'm afraid it will bite me, so I wanted to give it to you," Zhu Juntang said to Liu Chang'an.

"Your idea and honest attitude are truly admirable." Liu Chang'an gave her an example to show his appreciation.

"Do you want it or not!" Zhu Juntang raised her hands and covered the top of her head.

Liu Chang'an thought for a moment, then took the leash from the bodyguard. The Rottweiler lay on the ground, still trembling, wagging its tail incessantly, its eyes glistening with what seemed to be a little wet.

Liu Chang'an knew that the dog wasn't worried about being turned into dog meat hot pot or anything like that. Rather, it was because the aura of that prehistoric beast from his last transformation hadn't completely dissipated. Ordinary people couldn't sense it, but dogs were extremely sensitive to it.

Huskies and the like are a different story.

"Thanks," Liu Chang'an said to Zhu Juntang.

Zhu Juntang breathed a sigh of relief. He felt a bit uncomfortable keeping the dog that had bitten him, but Zhu Juntang wouldn't kill it right away. After all, in Zhu Juntang's opinion, the High Templar hadn't done anything wrong.

Handing her over to Liu Chang'an is the most suitable choice, because Qin Yanan has already become Liu Chang'an's lapdog, so what difficulty would it be to win back another little puppy?

Liu Chang'an led the dog home. At first, the High Templar was a little limp, but in the end, he didn't dare to resist Liu Chang'an or go against his wishes. He trotted to keep up with Liu Chang'an's pace, but kept his head down and stared at the ground the whole time, completely lacking the fierce aura of a large dog.

"Your first dog was much better than you, and it even dared to pounce on me." Liu Chang'an sighed. It's common for creatures in this world, whether human or dog, to decline with each generation.

Just kidding, but when it comes to physique, this one in front of us seems to be the strongest.

As I walked, it started to rain.

Liu Chang'an continued walking slowly. Whether he walked fast or slow, he would get soaked. The road ahead was only rain. Even if he found a place to take shelter, he would be drenched by then. What was the point?

When Liu Chang'an got home, he saw Zhou Dongdong sitting on the steps. She was holding a small paper boat and put it into a puddle in front of her. Soon, the raindrops soaked the paper boat, filled it with water, and it sank.

Zhou Dongdong was stunned for a moment. When she saw Liu Chang'an walking over, she quickly howled twice and ran to Liu Chang'an while pointing at the sunken paper boat. Just as she was about to tell her brother Chang'an that her paper boat had sunk, she immediately saw the black dog following behind Liu Chang'an.

"Brother Chang'an, is this a dog or a pig?" Zhou Dongdong asked in confusion. The dogs she had seen most often were small curly-haired dogs that were everywhere on the streets. She didn't really recognize any that were this big, especially one that was completely soaked.

"A dog, alive, not meat," Liu Chang'an explained succinctly, to avoid making her want to eat it but also cry.

"Won't it bite me?" Zhou Dongdong liked dogs, but this big dog still scared her a little.

"If it bites you, you'll turn into dog meat." Liu Chang'an gently patted the dog's head. "I've trained it to pick you up and drop you off at school."

"I can ride it to school!" Zhou Dongdong said excitedly.

Liu Chang'an was puzzled. Zhou Dongdong always seemed to glean some incomprehensible meaning from his simple and direct words. "Did I mean that? You want to be a kid who rides a dog to school?"

"Is it not okay?" Zhou Dongdong spread her legs and swung her arms rapidly, trying to imitate the movements of riding a horse.

"No."

Zhou Dongdong was greatly disappointed; it turned out she couldn't be a child who rode a dog to school.

I recommend a book called "The Hunter of the Main Gods." It's a top-rated novel, so it must have its merits. If you're tired of the slice-of-life urban novels, it's a good change of pace.
