Chapter 68: The Smell of Urine

About half an hour later, the dog's owner arrived at the door.

Ye Xi froze the moment she opened the door.

Lu Lingxiao was dressed in a dark shirt paired with dress pants, perhaps because of the heat, he had undone two buttons at the collar, his left hand, adorned with a metal watch, tucked into the pants. He hadn't expected Ye Xi to open the door so quickly after ringing the bell, and only lifted his head as she came out.

The moment their eyes met, Ye Xi's breathing hitched, then she asked, "Is it you?"

Lu Lingxiao hadn't expected that his dog would be brought back by her.

If it weren't for that idiot Xiao Qi losing the dog, he wouldn't have had to come all this way in person to retrieve it.

That culprit, Xiao Qi, stood right behind him, looking utterly dejected.

If he hadn't pulled some strings to check the surveillance footage, he would have had no idea that the little guy had escaped on his watch.
