After I awakened my inner voice, I became the treasure of my family.

Chapter 207 Master-Servant Contract

"Only in this way can we ensure Situ Wenqi's safety and rescue him," Gu Yunchen said earnestly.

"Third brother, have you found a Taoist priest or master who can help him return to his body?" Jiang Mianmian's eyes flickered, her face full of curiosity, and she asked impatiently.

Her eyes sparkled with anticipation; she wanted to know if people with such mysterious and powerful abilities truly existed in this world.

[After all, I already possess such extraordinary abilities, so shouldn't Taoist priests and Buddhist monks be even more powerful?]

If such a thing existed, I wonder if I'd ever have the chance to see it for myself?

Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but think to herself, hoping that one day she could see those capable people, and even more so, she wanted to witness the extraordinary scene of replacing a dog with a human.

"Uh... we're still looking!"

In fact, even now, he has sent out many people to search in various places, but he has still not been able to find a person who truly has such extraordinary abilities.

They also tried to find Master Yunhai at Fahua Temple, but Master Yunhai had already gone on a pilgrimage. No one at Fahua Temple knew where he had gone, and his return date was uncertain.

Thinking of this, Gu Yunchen turned his head slightly to look at Jiang Mianmian beside him.

Now, in his eyes, perhaps apart from his mother, he really can't find anyone with superpowers.

Gu Yunchen sighed and then told his men about the "dog-stealing" plan.

Given that Su Qianqian firmly refused to return the big black dog to its "owner" through friendly negotiation, they had no choice but to resort to "force" tactics in secret.

The specific "dog snatching" plan was quite simple and brutal: take advantage of the time when Su Qianqian was out and no one was home, seize the opportunity, and decisively "steal" the dog back without anyone noticing.

【Wow~】Jiang Mianmian exclaimed inwardly.

Well, I have to say, this "dog-stealing" method is indeed quite feasible. Uh... the process isn't important, the most important thing is the result...

Before Jiang Mianmian could finish her internal monologue, Gu Yunchen, who knew her thoughts perfectly well, eagerly called out, "Mother!"

This sudden shout startled Jiang Mianmian. She instinctively patted her chest, her face full of anger, and complained:

"Hey, you brat, why are you shouting so loudly! Are you trying to scare me to death so you can inherit my vast fortune?"

[Hmph! Don't waste your time. Even if you scare me to death, you won't get all my money.]

Gu Yunchen rolled his eyes inwardly, then looked at Jiang Mianmian with an innocent expression, thinking to himself: You were the one who startled me first, weren't you?

Besides, I didn't intend to scare you to death and inherit your money! But of course, he wouldn't say these words out loud.

However, thinking about the follow-up issues after Situ Wenqi's return, he looked at Jiang Mianmian with a guilty expression, which he awkwardly concealed by coughing lightly.

Then, Gu Yunchen composed himself and said to Jiang Mianmian expressionlessly, "Mother, once we successfully steal this dog—no, 'rescue' it—you can bring it back to our Marquis's mansion!"

Let him stay with you for a few more days, and then I'll send him away once I find someone to take care of him. Mother, is that alright?

"Huh? Seriously? You actually want me to raise a dog for you? If it were just an ordinary dog, that would be fine, since our house is spacious enough for it to run around freely. But this dog is clearly not..."

Jiang Mianmian looked troubled as she spoke, a hint of doubt and surprise in her eyes. She muttered softly, "Third brother! It's not an ordinary dog! A human soul lives inside its dog body. Do you really think this will work?"

At this moment, her face was full of question marks, and she muttered to herself:

[Should I treat it as a person, or as a regular dog?]

Also, if I'm going to feed it, should I give it special dog food, or should I prepare food like a normal person?

Thinking about all this, Jiang Mianmian couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

Uh……

Seeing her mother's sincere expression and a series of heartfelt questions, Gu Yunchen couldn't immediately express her thoughts. Upon reflection, her mother's concerns were indeed not without merit.

After a moment of silence, Gu Yunchen said helplessly, "Since that's the case, how about this: you can prepare a human meal for it at the same time."

Prepare another serving of food suitable for the dog, and then let it choose for itself.

Alas, if he hadn't been so desperate to get Situ Wenqi's soul back into his original body, why would he have done this?

Moreover, temporarily fostering this special dog with my mother means that at least family members know the inside story, which is safer than leaving it somewhere else.

And so, a dramatic "dog-stealing plan" was about to begin.

Whether it was fate playing tricks on her or Su Qianqian had already sensed something, for the next few days, she didn't take her dog out for a walk as usual.

Not only that, she didn't even leave the house anymore, spending all her time at home playing with that big black dog.

This was really tough on Airen. He felt like he was being driven crazy by this woman every day!

ah ah ah...

Su Qianqian gazes at it with tender affection every day, as if it's the only thing in her eyes. If it ignores her, her expression immediately changes.

Then he looked at it with a mournful expression, his brow furrowed, as if it were a heartless and ungrateful dog.

ah ah ah...

Is it driving it crazy?

A woman like that, let alone a man, even a dog couldn't stand her tormenting him!

What's worse, Su Qianqian has been appearing and disappearing mysteriously these past few days.

Sometimes it would suddenly appear out of nowhere, staring straight at it, making its back feel cold.

Moreover, she would often cry in front of her dog...

“Ai Ren…”

Suddenly, a faint voice slowly came from the side.

Ai Ren's heart skipped a beat. He turned his head and saw a disheveled figure squatting in front of him—it was none other than Su Qianqian!

At that moment, she looked exactly like a female ghost, appearing before it in a sinister and terrifying manner.

Su Qianqian sobbed, choking out, "Waaah... Ai Ren, I really can't bear to part with you!"

Seeing her like this, Ai Ren became somewhat numb, but secretly thought to himself: Look, here we go again!

Those people clearly said they would come to "rescue" it, so why did they stop responding halfway through the rescue?

What kind of nonsense is this?!

Are we just going to stand by and watch it continue to suffer here?

Good heavens, please have mercy and send someone to "save" me!

Even if it's just an ordinary person, that would be fine! After all, even a dog has a life!

Unfortunately, God couldn't understand its prayers.

"I'm so sorry, I really can't return you to your original owner. I really, really need you by my side..."

Su Qianqian looked at the dog in front of her with a face full of guilt, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Ai Ren, please don't resent me for making such a selfish decision. My love for you is so deep that it's ingrained in my bones. If I lose you, my world will become dark and gloomy."

Su Qianqian hugged Ai Ren tightly, as if afraid that he would disappear if she let go.

"My Airen, you are like family to me, the most important person in my life."

Without you always by my side, bringing me joy and warmth, I simply can't imagine what the future would be like.

Su Qianqian gently stroked Ai Ren's soft fur while murmuring to herself.

"You have to believe me, you know what? There's no dog in the world more beautiful than yours."

Su Qianqian gazed tenderly into Ai Ren's bright, expressive eyes, continuing to pour out her heartfelt joy and affection.

…………

Listening to Su Qianqian's endless confession, Ai Ren could only bark helplessly twice.

It's happened so many times these past few days, can you please stop talking about it?

"Wang Wang!"

Why can't you understand dog language?

Ai Ren's tone was mournful and helpless, and he was also pleading with Su Qianqian to stop her endless rambling.

However, when Su Qianqian heard these two calls, she misunderstood them as agreement. She burst into tears of joy, and her face blossomed into a radiant smile like spring flowers.

Overjoyed, Su Qianqian rushed into the house like a gust of wind.

A moment later, she ran out with a piece of paper in her hand and excitedly told Ai Ren, "Look, this is a master-servant contract that belongs exclusively to the two of us!"

If you obediently place your paw print on it, it means that from now on, no matter what happens, you will always stay by my side and never leave me!

As she spoke, she eagerly handed the so-called contract to Ai Ren.

Su Qianqian said with a grin, "Ai Ren, aren't you happy too?!"

"Wang Wang Wang!"

I'm not happy at all!

Ai Ren felt no joy whatsoever; in fact, he was extremely angry.

For some reason, a sudden feeling of panic welled up inside me, making me feel very uneasy.

This feeling was exceptionally strong, especially when it looked at the contract; the feeling intensified then.

It was as if an invisible voice was whispering in its ear, warning it never to sign the document.

Because once the paw print is pressed, it will be trapped next to Su Qianqian forever and will never be able to break free.
