Xie Shang said helplessly, "Miss Wen, I'm also taking this road home."
Miss Wen hugged herself from the cold wind and quickened her pace.
Xie Shang followed at a not too distant, not too close range behind her.
Little Black, the infamous vicious dog of Lotus Pond Street, shockingly wasn't leashed by its owner. From afar, it charged at Wen Changling, baring its teeth and barking, running towards her as if it wanted to bite at the hem of her pants.
This damned dog!
Wen Changling stopped, stamped her foot, but it was useless. Having been chased and had her pant leg bitten by Little Black before, she had a bit of a psychological barrier. Instinctively, she retreated and instinctively called out to Xie Shang.
"Xingxing."
Xie Shang responded to her, "What's the matter?"
She urged, "Come here."
