Before Hao Ren could even pull out his keys, the front door opened. It was Lily who had heard his footsteps and came to open the door. Like any ordinary husky, the lass here could hear whose footsteps it was from the street while she was lazing about.
"Mr. Landlord, where are my buns?" Lily looked at Hao Ren with anticipation before she circled him to look for the hidden buns. "I just got back from walking the cat, so where are my buns?"
Hao Ren finally realized why he felt like he had missed something out earlier: he had forgotten about Lily's buns!
"Umm... That..." He awkwardly looked at the starry-eyed werehusky. "Actually..."
Lily's face stiffened. "Did you forget them, Mr. Landlord?"
Hao Ren tapped his head as he quickly thought of a plan to stop Lily from biting him. He pulled out a pack of snacks from his Dimensional Pocket. "Old Zhao's closed for business today, so I got you a pack of chocolates."
