Chapter 67: Chapter 67 Heartless and Carefree People

Could this dog defeat a Tibetan Mastiff? Wu Tian just smiled and didn’t explain.

Murong Yezi took the little girl and Little Kirin to the kindergarten, while Wu Tian caught a ride in Qin Yuhan’s car to the company. Along the way, Qin Yuhan continued to ignore him. She dropped him off on the street in front of the building, and the two went their separate ways.

Qin Yuhan drove to the company; Wu Tian walked. On the street and later inside the building, people were whispering about the same thing: the opening of a new Gambling Stone Field in Yang City last night.

The wealthy masters and madams from the Gambling Stone Field had been silenced by Xiao Liang, who warned them not to speak recklessly. Knowing Xiao Liang’s identity, they were naturally too scared to utter a peep. The newspapers only had a few photos and videos, none of which showed Wu Tian’s face clearly.

Now, inside the company, most people, prompted by Bing Hong, were exclaiming in awe.

“Wow, Nangong Yi is that powerful?”

“I knew Nangong Yi was a real man! He even blinded Nalan Feng.”

“As expected of our idol, even his stone gambling skills are incredible.”

Wu Tian was completely stunned to find that the hero of last night’s incident had somehow become Nangong Yi. But it was no problem for him; he was happy to have the peace and quiet.

Nangong Yi also found it difficult to speak up. He wanted to say that he wasn’t responsible… But faced with the adoring gazes of women who looked ready to throw themselves at him, he couldn’t get the words out. He could only bury himself in his work, hoping that one day he would make a name for himself and truly earn this honor.

Wu Tian could see that Lin Fa had changed; he had started to apply himself diligently. All morning, Lin Fa worked hard, assisting the logistics department while studying books on business strategy.

Throughout the morning, Bing Hong occasionally passed by the logistics department. She didn’t enter, but she was trying to entice Lin Fa, hoping he would look at her with eyes gleaming with desire, as he usually did—like a dog spotting a piece of meat. But he didn’t. Greatly disappointed, Bing Hong stomped her foot in frustration and left.

“You don’t want her anymore?” Wu Tian asked, walking over to the reading Lin Fa.

“Boss, it’s not that I don’t want her; it’s that I can’t afford to, and I don’t dare to,” Lin Fa replied. “I used to think that no two people are a perfect match from the start and that all relationships require work. But now I understand. While people with different worldviews can be together, those on fundamentally different paths cannot make plans together. That’s a barrier that can’t be overcome.”

Wu Tian nodded, quite gratified that Lin Fa had finally understood.

Meanwhile, the little girl had taken Little Kirin to kindergarten. All the children were delighted, thinking Little Kirin was adorable. Unlike Wang Tian’s Tibetan Mastiff, all the kids loved playing with the little girl and Little Kirin.

They were now playing “drop the handkerchief,” and Little Kirin had joined in. Lin Mo and the other female teachers watched quietly from the side.

The game of “drop the handkerchief” starts by preparing a few handkerchiefs. Everyone chooses one person to be the “dropper,” while the rest crouch down in a large circle. The game begins with the dropper walking around the outside of the circle, who must discreetly drop a handkerchief behind one of the players. The person with the handkerchief behind them must quickly spot it, get up, and chase the dropper. The dropper runs around the circle toward the now-empty spot to crouch down. If they are caught, they have to perform a talent, like a dance, a song, or a story.

Little Kirin’s participation seemed completely normal to the children, but Lin Mo and the other teachers saw it differently.

“I don’t know… for some reason I feel like this puppy has a Spiritual Nature.”

“I feel that way too.”

“Me too.”

Lin Mo and the others were amazed. A puppy this cute and with such a Spiritual Nature… you usually only see that in movies, right?

All the children were playing together except for one boy, Wang Tian, who was standing beside a cage. Although he was seven, he refused to leave kindergarten. He wanted to be the boss and rule the place forever. His doting parents simply let him have his way.

Wang Tian grew bored and unhappy as he watched the other kids play with Gugu and the little puppy instead of coming to admire him and his Tibetan Mastiff.

Just then, a handkerchief landed behind the little girl. She realized it, picked it up, and was just standing up when a small stone came flying toward her.

AH!

Little Kirin was too slow to react. The little girl was struck, and a large lump immediately rose on her smooth, snowy-white forehead. Piercing pain brought tears to her eyes, making her want to cry out. What’s more, bright red blood streamed down her brow.

Lin Mo and the other teachers grew anxious and rushed over to check on the little girl.

Seeing that he had failed to protect his “big sister,” Little Kirin became enraged, grinding his teeth as he glared at Wang Tian and his Tibetan Mastiff. Little Kirin lowered its front paws to the ground, its hind legs slightly bent, looking as if it wanted to burn everything before it to ashes. Its eyes were fixed fiercely on Wang Tian, frightening the boy out of his wits.

“You… you little dog, how dare you look at me like that? Do you know who I am?” Wang Tian became furious and looked at the Tibetan Mastiff in the cage. “King, roar at it!”

But the Tibetan Mastiff, looking at Little Kirin, sensed something through its animal instincts and began to tremble. Far from roaring, it was now as meek as a sick cat, not daring to act out.

If Wu Tian hadn’t merely ordered it to suppress the Tibetan Mastiff, Little Kirin would have lunged forward and bitten it to death this morning.

“Puppy, don’t be rude,” the little girl cried out when she saw Little Kirin’s aggressive stance, despite the pain in her forehead. “We’re classmates. You can’t act like that.”

Little Kirin had no choice but to return to the little girl’s side. Its heart filled with immense anger as it looked at the blood on her forehead.

Lin Mo had someone bring a medical kit. She treated the little girl’s wound, applied a disinfectant Potion, and then bandaged it up.

“Sister Mo, don’t blame him,” the little girl said, though she was still in pain.

Lin Mo was taken aback. She had always thought the little girl was cute, but she never realized she had such a kind-hearted side.

“But we have to call your parents now,” Lin Mo said.

“No, you can’t!” the little girl shook her head frantically. “I don’t want Papa and Mama to worry about me.”

Lin Mo didn’t know what to say.

Just then, a luxurious car stopped outside the kindergarten, and a stylishly dressed woman walked in. When Wang Tian saw her, he ran over with a smile, acting as if what he had just done was of no concern at all.

As he ran, Wang Tian called out, “Mom, are you taking me out for a treat?”

“Yes,” Qiu Yanyan replied. She noticed something was amiss in the kindergarten and couldn’t help but ask, “What’s going on here?”

Wang Tian just shook his head. “It’s nothing, it’s nothing. Mom, let’s just go get something to eat.”
