Hei Xiaomeng saw Ye Ling just standing there. It went over and kicked open the door. It barked twice once he got in, as though reminding Liu Duo of his entrance!
Caught by surprise, Ye Ling rushed over to the dog. "Xiaomeng, you have to turn it down."
He came here to wake her up for breakfast, but he was not expecting the noise.
The woman on the bed rose awake when she heard Hei Xiaomeng's loud barking. Without opening her eyes, she spoke amid the confusion. "Xiaomeng, why are you up here?"
Hei Xiaomeng rarely came upstairs, mainly because Ye Mo would not allow it.
The dog heard Liu Duo calling its name. It ran over to her bedside and barked softly, as though responding to her, wagging its bushy tail excitedly.
"Duo Er, Xiaomeng followed me here." Ye Ling came to sit by the bed too. "Duo Er, you should get up for breakfast. If you need more sleep, you can continue after your meal."
His voice was gentle, soft, and immensely comforting.
