On the way back, Zhan Wei spoke with a sincere tone, "When it's time to have dinner, you must pretend that you haven't eaten enough and finish your meal, okay?"
"Bark."
Spark responded and then let out a satisfied burp.
Zhan Wei: "..."
Zhan Wei comforted hisself, knowing that it would take over half an hour to take the bus from the nearest bus stop to the 37th Beast High School. By that time, they should have digested the food...
Pet beasts could eat human food on a regular basis, but if they wanted to develop well and have good nutrition, they needed specially made food that contained energy.
The food for the pet beasts at home was made by Zhan Wei's mother, and it took a considerable amount of time. If Spark couldn't eat his mother's food later because it was full from eating lamb skewers...
Zhan Wei shook his head and dared not dwell on it.
It would only take about ten minutes to get home by subway from here, but Zhan Wei chose to take the bus for the sake of Spark.
On bus number 66, perhaps because it had expended energy and eaten a lot, Spark was unusually quiet, leaning against the window and looking at the scenery outside.
The bus continued to drive steadily, while the sun was setting in the same moment. The golden hues reflected off the surface of the towering skyscrapers were gradually fading away.
"We has arrived at Jiyang Station. Passengers please alight from the rear door and take your carry-on luggage with you," the electronic voice of the station announcement suddenly rang out.
Suddenly, there were more people on the bus at this stop. Not only were all the seats taken, but there were also 5 or 6 standing passengers.
After driving for another 3 minutes, Spark suddenly turned his head without warning and shouted at the passenger next to him.
Sitting next to Zhan Wei was a female student wearing the uniform of the 37th Forbidden Beast High School. She got on the bus at the same station as Zhan Wei.
The female student glanced at Spark but didn't say anything, just shifted slightly to the side.
Zhan Wei turned Spark around and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Spark looked at the female student.
"Bark?"
It tilted its head, seeming confused.
"Do you know you're scaring people like this?" Zhan Wei said, patting Spark's head.
"Bark."
Spark simply responded, looking out the window to enjoy the scenery.
The female student smiled friendly at Zhan Wei and said, "I'm fine."
Zhan Wei glanced at the 10 plus centimeters of newly increased distance between them, about to say something.
At this moment, Spark turned around again, barked harshly at the female student, appearing fierce.
The female student was startled and instinctively wanted to get up.
"Can you take this fire fang dog back? Are you responsible for scaring people?" a male voice spoke unhappily.
The person speaking was standing next to the female student.
Zhan Wei looked over and saw a man with a square-shaped face wearing a gray vest.
"Yeah, it's obvious this Fire Fang Dog hasn't been tamed properly," the aunt next to them chimed in.
"All the people on this bus said the same thing, he should put it away," another voice chimed in.
Upon hearing everyone's comments, the female student looked eagerly at Zhan Wei, hoping that he would put away Fire Fang Dog.
Zhan Wei frowned but ignored them.
He may not have been contracted with Spark for long, but he knew what kind of beast Spark was in his heart. He was a well-behaved child.
Moreover, he had ridden with Spark's taking bus before and had never encountered this kind of situation.
"What's wrong with you?" Zhan Wei turned Spark towards himself and asked.
"Bark."
Spark arrogantly turned its head to choose not to look at Zhan Wei.
It heard the words of the people around it, thinking that its summoner would blame it.
"Spark." Zhan Wei turned its head, held it with both hands, and made it look at his.
Spark's wet eyes were stubborn and aggrieved.
Zhan Wei stared into its eyes and said seriously, word by word, "I believe you, and you should believe me. If there's anything you can tell me, you know, I understand what you mean."
When Spark heard the words of its summoner, it instantly became excited.
"Bark Bark Bark!"
"Bark, Bark."
"Bark Bark Bark Bark, Bark!"
As it spoke, Spark gestured with its little paws.
Zhan Wei confirmed with it, "You're saying that there was something that suddenly appeared on her and then disappeared?"
"Bark!"
Spark nodded vigorously.
"So that thing suddenly appearing scared you, right?" Zhan Wei patted Spark's head.
"Bark." Spark buried its head on Zhan Wei's body and let out a plaintive cry.
The female student sitting next to them watched their interaction, stunned for a long time.
So, Fire Fang Dog is this kind of personality...
It's quite cute...
Maybe she should try contracting with a fire-type pet for her second contract slot...
"It's okay, it's okay." After comforting Spark, Zhan Wei turned his head to the female student and said, "You heard everything just now."
The female student came to her senses, unsure, "Are you saying that something suddenly appeared on me?"
Zhan Wei nodded.
"But..." The female student hadn't finished speaking when a voice interrupted her.
"You don't listen to her nonsense. It's just an excuse to avoid taking back the fiery-tempered dog. I warn you, quickly take back the fiery-tempered dog, or else someone will get hurt, and you'll see how I deal with you!" A man with a square face standing next to the female student said fiercely.
"That's right, put it away quickly. It'll be too late if someone gets hurt." A nearby aunt agreed.
"Put it away. Everyone is worried." Another person chimed in.
"I don't think this boy looks like he's lying. Maybe it's some kind of ghostly supernatural creature on this bus." At this moment, a different voice appeared.
