Chapter 4040: 4040
“No, why do you ask? Is something wrong?”
“Oh, nothing’s wrong . I’m just worried for Mom and Dad’s safety . During my morning run, I overheard the security guard say that a lot of people in our complex lost their pets . ” Bella was worried that Zhixin may get suspicious, so she changed the subject to puppies and kittens .
“Oh, isn’t that normal? Everyone here has purebred pets, and each animal costs thousands . I’m not surprised to hear that thieves are interested as well . ”
“But who would steal so many animals all at once? Plus, it’s weird, none of the cameras caught anything . ” Bella felt like something was off, so she wanted to analyze the situation with Zhixin .
Zhixin, however, wasn’t fazed at all . “Thieves are all super skilled, so of course they paid attention to the surveillance cameras . Maybe the security guard stole all those animals . I’m so glad we don’t own a pet . ”
Zhixin’s remarks gave Bella an idea . She quickly walked into her office, made a Google search, and dialed the number of a pet store . “I want your smartest dog . Yeah, send it to my office . ”
That day after work, Bella and Zhixin drove home with a Golden Retriever puppy . As soon as they got home, the puppy began barking madly at Jing De . It howled at Jing De like he was the devil; the puppy’s barks scared Yang Meirong so much that she went into her room to hide .
“Guys, why did you bring a dog home?”
“Mom, I bought the dog . Isn’t he cute? I named him Hachi . ” Bella bent down and rubbed the puppy’s head .
Zhixin smiled lovingly at his wife . “Mom, Bella’s always wanted a dog . We recently watched a movie called ‘Hachi, A Dog’s Tale’, and the main character is a Shiba Inu . In the movie, the dog was so loyal to its owner that Bella’s been talking about getting a dog for a while now . Now, our home will always be filled with laughter . ”
“I’m okay with us getting a dog, but once you give birth, you’ll have to move out and I’ll take care of the dog, so the baby’s safe . ”

“Mom, we’re not moving out anymore . We’re going to mooch off you guys forever . ” Zhixin put his arms around his mom .
Jing De, who was sitting off to the side, looked at the dog with a dark expression on his face .
Zhixin laughed as he pointed at the puppy . “Dad, isn’t he handsome? Golden Retrievers are super smart animals . ”
Jing De took a few guilty steps back . “It’s handsome . I’m glad you guys like him . ”
Bella immediately noticed how different Jing De acted .

Hachi, who was unfamiliar with his surroundings, kept barking, especially when Jing De was near him . Jing De seemed to have noticed this, so he kept his distance .
“Dad doesn’t like dogs?” Bella asked her mother-in-law quietly when she saw Jing De retreat to the study .
Yang Meirong, who was knitting a sweater, laughed . “He used to like dogs . Back then, someone gave him a giant dog and he treated him like a piece of treasure . The dog was later stolen, and he was depressed for a long time afterwards . Since then, he’s never owned a dog . He’s an introvert, but he’s a great man who is good to everyone . ”
“He is . ” Bella smiled half-heartedly . She really wanted to tell Yang Meirong that the man living here was not the man she was married to .
After dinner, Bella went on a stroll outside . She overheard some alarming news when she passed by some neighbors .

She walked up to them . “What’s going on, guys?”
“They found the missing pets,” a woman answered .
“Where did they find them?” Bella asked, feeling startled .
