    Chapter 37 Chapter 37 Dog Lovers Woof woof woof woof woof…

    The next day, the bright sunshine shone into the bedroom on the second floor. Sijiu, who had slept until dawn, opened his eyes and felt relaxed and happy all over his body.

    The big dog he was holding had already gotten out of bed. After his fever subsided last night, Si Jiu fell asleep again and sweated again. Ran Lie jumped out of bed and changed into a human form. He took a towel and gently wiped his sweat dry so that he could sleep more peacefully.It was already daybreak, and Ran Lie went downstairs to boil hot water and make potions.

    When Si Jiu sat up on the bed, Ran Lie, in his orc form, wearing a brown sweatshirt, holding a plate and wagging his tail handsomely and bravely, pushed in through the door.

    On the plate were steaming potions, a glass of warm water, and a bowl of porridge that smelled a little mushy.

    Si Jiu watched him clumsily bring the porridge in front of him, and couldn’t help but smile softly——

    There is a sense of relief that my dog has grown up.

    “I’ve tried it—” Ran Lie sat down next to Si Jiu, picked up the porridge, and prepared to feed him with a spoon, “It’s not bad!”

    Si Jiu nodded and said with a smile: “Well, it smells delicious.”

    However, he no longer needed Ran Lie to feed himself with a spoon one bite at a time, so he raised his hand to take the bowl: “I’ll do it myself.”

    “No, you haven’t recovered from your illness yet.” Ran Lie held the bowl and held the spoon, insisting, “Besides, I have the responsibility to take care of you.”

    Si Jiu blinked. His fever had gone away, and his blushing face was mostly caused by Ran Lie’s words.

    His heart seemed to beat a few beats faster, and his eyes lowered in embarrassment.

    However, Ran Lie has always been direct. He then said seriously: “You are my wife, of course I have to take care of you!”

    Uh… Si Jiu couldn’t laugh for a moment.

    Can I take back the compliment I just gave?!This porridge smells like paste when you smell it, okay?!

    Ran Lie continued: “Actually, I decided early on that you were my wife.”

    Si Jiu frowned. He felt that he should say something. How dare he treat Ran Lie like a dog, and Ran Lie kept “barking, barking, barking” and saying “decided”, but actually he wanted to have sex with him?!

    “But, fortunately, you like me too!” Ran Lie raised his head slightly, raised his ears, and showed a handsome grin. He narrowed his black and gold eyes. He had such a handsome face, but it made Si Jiu instantly think of a husky holding a rose in his mouth and laughing.

    …Maybe I was really confused yesterday, otherwise how could I say I like this guy?!I still have insomnia and shyness for him – can we turn back time?!

    Si Jiu raised his hand, instead of trying to compete with Ran Lie for the bowl of porridge, he directly grabbed his face with his hand.

    “Well -” Ran Lie’s dog looked at him, as if asking, what’s wrong?

    “Don’t call me wife. I’m a male just like you.” Si Jiu looked into the eyes of the young male orc and said word by word.

    “Wang Wu?” Half of Ran Lie’s face was pinched, but he didn’t care at all, “What about wife?”

    “No way!” Si Jiu laughed angrily at him.

    Ran Lie’s ears couldn’t help but fold back slightly uneasily.

    “But, you said you like me!” Ran Lie looked firmly into Si Jiu’s eyes, unwilling to let go. You can’t lie to a dog about this kind of thing, right?!

    “Well… this, yes – but you can’t call me wife, not even wife!” Si Jiu loosened his grip on Ran Lie’s hand, picked up the spoon in the bowl, took a spoonful of the porridge and took a bite. The taste was good, and it wasn’t too mushy.

    “Why? In the army, they all call their partners this way, and males do the same -” Ran Lie retorted confidently, but held the bowl steadily and let Si Jiu, who was sitting on the bed, scoop out the porridge and drink it.

    “Ahem…” Si Jiu choked slightly on his porridge. Ran Lie immediately stopped talking back, with only nervousness and concern in his eyes. He picked up a glass of warm water from the plate beside the bed and handed it to Si Jiu.

    “Then how do you prove that you like me?” When Si Jiu calmed down a bit, Ran Lie asked without giving up, his tail wagging nervously behind him.

    Si Jiu felt a little embarrassed.

    But he still gently held up Ran Lie’s face that still looked a little angry, lowered his head and pressed his lips gently.

    Ran Lie’s tail waggled happily behind him into an afterimage.

    The sun shone in, and Si Jiu felt that at this moment he must have been illuminated by the sunshine belonging to the Orc star and was unable to think normally. His heart was occupied by a sweet feeling, but he also felt so clearly the peace of mind that he could do whatever he wanted.

    He said to Ran Lie: “You have to listen to me.”

    Ran Lie put down the porridge and instantly transformed into the form of a big dog. He not only nodded and jumped onto the bed, but also licked the saliva from Si Jiu’s face.

    “Okay, it’s all up to you! How will you reward me?” The big dog’s voice was still low, but it revealed extra joy.

    Hey, stop licking – Si Jiu couldn’t bear it anymore and kicked the dog out of bed.

    After taking the medicine, Si Jiu, who had recovered from the fever, did not feel sleepy this time. He remembered that he had promised Jun Qi to reply to his weekend party – so he picked up his mobile phone and started to send a message to Wu En to apply.

    Ran Lie, who was in the form of a big dog, jumped on the bed again and lay next to Si Jiu. Si Jiu also told him about Jun Qi’s invitation to a party, but did not elaborate on the details of his previous chat with Jun Qi.

    “Oh, that cat -” the big dog snorted softly, still not angry, “I want to go too!”

    Si Jiu had known for a long time that Ran Lie would definitely follow, so Si Jiu was not surprised. However, he and Ran Lie had repeatedly made it clear that he was not allowed to scare or bully Jun Qi anymore.

    Moreover, he must get Jun Qi’s permission to go together.

    “How dare he disagree?” Ran Lie wanted to say a few more words, but with a look from Si Jiu, he automatically shut up.

    After a while, Wu En’s reply came, which said that it was normal for Sijiu to go out to attend friends’ gatherings. As long as it was a legal and compliant gathering, he could go on his own. There was no need to apply specifically. He was just reminding Sijiu to pay attention to safety. If he needed help, he could contact him at any time.

    At the same time, Wu En also specifically mentioned the medicine sealed in a transparent paper bag that Sijiu gave him. However, considering Sijiu’s fever condition, the military hospital will grant him a week’s leave to recuperate at home. We will not discuss it in detail until he returns to work after he is fully recovered.

    When Si Jiu sent a message to Wu En, he did not avoid Ran Lie at all. When it came to the text of the suspicious potion, Si Jiu told Ran Lie exactly what it was.

    It seems that something has indeed been discovered about this suspicious potion——

    Si Jiu thought that he could ask Curly Hair who worked in the drugstore later if he had any information about the purchasing channel of the suspicious medicine – this might be an important clue about Bihejing and the organization behind it.

    Here, after receiving approval from the army represented by Wu En, Si Jiu immediately sent a message to Jun Qi and asked him if he could bring Ran Lie with him.

    Unexpectedly, Jun Qi, who always responded quickly, did not reply for a long time this time. At first, Si Jiu thought he was busy with his work as a nurse.But unexpectedly, after a while, when Ran Lie went downstairs to make lunch, Jun Qi called directly, her voice full of melancholy.

    “I’m not feeling well today and asked for leave. Xiaojiu, I’m sorry. The party has to be postponed until next week. Alas, I don’t know why. I feel that Zhu Yu is not as enthusiastic about me these days as before! Speaking of which, I was forced to go on blind dates by my family in the past, and no one liked me. This time, it was finally introduced by a friend.My blind date is a handsome and gentlemanly male orc who I like at first sight.But as we chatted, I felt that he might not like me that much!Oh, what should I do, Xiaojiu, I really like him!Are you saying that he is rejecting me by delaying the party?”

    Si Jiu comforted her gently: “He postponed the party probably because of work, not because of you.”

    “Is that what you think?” Jun Qi’s mood improved a little on the other side of the phone.

    “Well, if you really want to refuse, just cancel. There is no need to reschedule.” Si Jiu thought for a while and said.

    “That’s right!” Jun Qi meowed softly, “However, I always feel that the human friend next to Yu Zhu doesn’t seem to like me very much. I’ll send you a photo, and you can help me see if my feeling is accurate?”

    Si Jiu got up from the bed, and Jun Qi sent a photo on his phone with a ding. He picked up the phone and saw that from left to right in the photo were Jun Qi with one blue eye and one gold eye, the fox orc Zhu Yu, and the human being who was the friend of the fox orc.

    Most of the fox orcs on the orc planet are handsome and beautiful, which is not unusual, but it is really rare to see foxes who make friends with humans.

    Si Jiu took a closer look at the human. Although he had spent a lot of time in the Rebirth Organization and the Interstellar Sanctuary on the Arran Planet, he did not recognize all the humans who had moved to the Orc Planet. He was not familiar with the human in the photo in front of him.

    This is a handsome man with a pair of fox eyes, about thirty years old. He deliberately cut his hair into the shape of fox ears. In the photo, his eyes are always looking at the fox orc Takesumi.

    Rather than saying that he doesn’t care about Jun Qi, it’s better to say that he seems to care about this fox orc named Zhu Yu.

    Si Jiu thought for a while and said to Jun Qi on the phone: “What matters is Zhu Yu’s opinion of you, not his friends, right?”

    “Well, Xiaojiu, you are absolutely right. I feel that the once calm and wise Xiaojiu is back – how do you get along with the male orc you care about?” Jun Qi’s voice became lighter.

    “Ha–very good.” Si Jiu couldn’t help but touched his face again and quickly changed the subject, “By the way, can Ran Lie come with us?”

    Jun Qi paused for a long time, then said in a drawled tone: “Yes – but I have a condition.”

    “You said.”

    “You have to tell me who the male orc you said you like is. I’m really curious.” There was a hint of flattery in Jun Qi’s tone.

    At this moment, Ran Lie, in the form of an orc, opened the door.

    Si Jiu immediately whispered into the phone, “Okay, I’ll tell you when we meet.”

    Si Jiu hung up the phone, Ran Lie glanced at him and said, “Just tell him it’s me.”

    This kid must have been eavesdropping outside the door for a long time.

    Dog ears are really smart!
