“The security guards just took them away…”
“Took them away? What do you mean?” Bella asked with confusion .
“It was disgusting… I think some psychopath’s living in our area… the pets were all murdered . The security guards took their bodies away… we only heard about it because someone reported a murder today and the police dogs were here to sniff out the body… they found them all buried under a fountain in the park… my god, it was so messy . I heard that someone drained them their blood . ”
“Someone drained the pets of their blood?” Bella listened in horror .
“Yeah, no one knows who did it, but could you imagine who would be crazy enough to do it? It really scared me, so I’m going to stay at my mother-in-law’s place for a few days . I want to move out of Sky Blessing Court . Apparently the woman who died in building five was drained of blood as well… oh my god, I can’t talk about it anymore, I’m getting goosebumps again . ”
The middle-aged woman left after disclosing the information she had, and the crowd slowly dispersed…
Everything happened so suddenly that Bella had a feeling that things were more complicated than they seem .
Thinking back at what Qin Chu and Huo Mian told her, Bella’s body tensed with worry . Did all this… really have something to do with that man?
With a heavy heart, Bella went home . Zhixin was playing a videogame upstairs, while Yang Meirong and Jing De were watching TV on the couch .
Bella glanced at Jing De; his expression was blank . He had been very quiet and didn’t talk to anyone unless they engaged in conversation first .
Bella had never met Jing De before, so she didn’t know what he used to be like before he ‘died’ . However, she did know that the man in front of her gave her serious creeps .
Bella then turned around to see her puppy sitting quietly in a corner . She had a bowl in front of her with some leftovers from dinner .
“Mom, he eats kibble . You don’t have to feed him human food . ” Bella picked Hachi up with a smile . She was going to take him upstairs, but suddenly changed her mind . With Hachi in her arms, Bella sat down on the couch, right next to Jing De .
All of a sudden, Hachi jumped at Jing De…
Almost instinctively, Jing De’s large hand came slapping down at Hachi, throwing the poor puppy off the couch and onto the floor . He must’ve used a lot of force, because Hachi howled with pain .
“Hey, why is Hachi trying to bite him?” Worried about Jing De, Yang Meirong scooched up to look at his hand, but Jing De slapped her hand away violently .
Then, with an icy expression on his face, he spat, “I don’t like dogs . Send him away tomorrow or else I’ll make him pay . ”
Upon hearing this, Bella quickly picked up Hachi, who was curled up on the floor in horror .
He really was scared of dogs… Why was a man so scared of a little puppy? Bella’s heart fell .
She doesn’t know a single person who was as scared of dogs as he was, not even children .
Jing De had never lost his temper since he came home, so his sudden burst frightened Yang Meirong as well .
She watched as Jing De stormed out of the house, slamming the door behind him . Worried about her daughter-in-law, Yang Meirong tried to console Bella . “Bella, don’t be angry, your dad wasn’t mad at you… I think he’s still adjusting to his old life…”
“Mom, I’m fine, I should’ve been more careful . I didn’t think Dad would hate dogs to this extent . ” Bella forced out a smile and carried Hachi upstairs .
Zhixin, who had no idea what had just happened downstairs, was still playing his video game .
“Zhixin, stop playing, I have something important to tell you . ”
“Sure, shoot,” Zhixin said, his eyes still glued to the screen .
“Someone died, I think it has something to do with dad,” Bella went straight to the point .
Upon hearing this, Zhixin froze and turned to stare at Bella, shock written all over his face .
