"He was a lonely old man. His only son passed away due to an accident in his early years, and this dog was the only companion he had by his side. During the time he was in a critical condition, the only option he had left if he wanted to live was to undergo surgery, and even the success rate of the surgery was extremely low." As Song Chuyi changed into his house slippers, he continued on: "He told me if the surgery ended in failure, he hoped I'd raise this dog on his behalf. In the end… the surgery turned out to be a failure, and it was the first time I failed a surgery."
As per usual, he had very minimal changes in his expression even when he was talking about the dog.
