Chapter 204 What else can a dog's brain do?
Chapter 204 What else can a dog's brain do?
And so, after a series of incredibly melodramatic events, Situ Wenqi and Su Qianqian finally overcame countless hardships and achieved their happy ending, returning home hand in hand.
The couple thought they would live happily ever after, but a sudden imperial decree struck like a bolt from the blue, ruthlessly shattering their hard-won sweet moments.
And Situ Wenqi, once high and mighty, this dignified prince, was reduced to an ordinary commoner in the blink of an eye. His once-proud and cherished noble status vanished into thin air!
Having lost the protection of his prestigious status, Situ Wenqi, who had just successfully embraced his beloved, was instantly attacked by Su Qianqian's numerous admirers.
[This once high and mighty Ninth Prince, in the time that followed, embarked on a tumultuous and heart-wrenching love story. However, in this tormented romance, only Situ Wenqi silently endured the suffering.]
He could only watch helplessly as his beloved flirted with other men, powerless to do anything about it, his heart aching as if being gnawed by a million ants...
[Wait a minute! Shouldn't this storybook be titled "After Being Pampered by the Group, I Went Wild?"? How did it develop into such a heart-wrenching and physically abusive plot later on?]
Filled with doubt, Jiang Mianmian stubbornly flipped through the pages again. After quickly browsing through the subsequent plot, she suddenly understood.
Oh wow! I see!
The so-called "torture" isn't directed at the female lead; rather, it's the male lead who suffers the "torture."
Despite experiencing numerous trials and tribulations, the female lead is still pampered and doted on by a host of male supporting characters, including the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth male leads.
[Hehe... In that case, it truly deserves the title of a "favorite character" novel.]
[Sigh! Well, I guess I misunderstood who was being pampered? I thought the story was about Situ Wenqi showering Su Qianqian with affection.]
Unexpectedly, Su Qianqian was the one who was showered with love and affection, while Situ Wenqi was just one of many men who doted on her.
However, Situ Wenqi's boundless pampering spoiled Su Qianqian so much that she became completely unruly. As a result, her restless heart became "wild," attracting a whole host of unwanted suitors.
Wow, I never imagined the word "wild" could have such a profound meaning! It's truly deep and complex!
Jiang Mianmian turned her gaze to the large black dog beside her, her eyes overflowing with sympathy.
Because she suddenly realized a truth—this melodramatic story began with Situ Wenqi transforming into a dog, and ended with him turning back into a dog.
[Alas, Situ Wenqi was suffering unspeakable pain in his heart. He couldn't bear to watch the woman he loved be intimate and affectionate with another man!]
Therefore, he preferred to forgo being human and instead became a dog, silently staying by her side, never leaving her for her entire life.
[It's important to know that the average lifespan of a dog is only a little over ten years. In other words, after Situ Wenqi transformed into a dog, he lived for fifteen years before dying.]
[Tsk tsk tsk, look at Situ Wenqi, his affection is truly profound!]
[When he was human, this love-struck brain was beyond saving! Now that he's a dog, what can his dog brain do...?]
Gu Yunchen: "..."
Ai Ren: "..."
Uh... who is this Situ Wenqi?
Oh dear, thank goodness I'm a "dog demon," otherwise...
Why are these two people looking at me strangely?
"Oh! Right, I just remembered something. My dog is usually looked after by one of my servants. Since the owner isn't home, I'd better not go inside, lest something gets stolen and no one can explain themselves!"
Jiang Mianmian snapped at the person at the door, "Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang, what are you standing there for! Hurry up and bring my dog out, or you won't be eating dinner tonight!"
"Oh, yes, madam."
At this moment, Xiao Wang, the invisible "servant" who had been standing motionless at the door of Su Qianqian's house, immediately flinched in fright and quickly stepped forward.
Then, he quickly rushed into Su Qianqian's house and dragged the golden retriever out.
After reading the plot, Jiang Mianmian felt that she had eaten all the "big gossip" she needed to eat, and this task was also completed.
She didn't want to stay any longer; she wanted to go back and share the "big news" she had seen that day with her real daughters-in-law and "fake daughters-in-law."
However, when she left, she didn't forget to continue the final stages of the scene, and even thanked Gu Yunchen with a smile.
She smiled and thanked him for "testifying" for her, proving that she hadn't entered Su Qianqian's house, and that the "servant" in her house had only gone in to walk her dog.
Gu Yunchen was completely flustered. With an unpleasant expression, he cooperated with Jiang Mianmian to smooth things over and followed behind her. The group left Su Qianqian's house together.
"Wang Wang..."
"Wang Wang..."
"Wang Wang..."
Hey! Come back!
Are you kidding me? Come back here right now!
What exactly did you mean by what you just said?
Ai Ren roared and screamed, his voice echoing through the narrow alley.
Unfortunately, his barking did not seem to attract the attention of Jiang Mianmian and her group, and their footsteps gradually faded into the distance.
Of course, it's also because no one can understand Ai Ren's roar.
"Wang Wang Wang..."
The big black dog behind them kept barking, but instead of stopping the sound of their footsteps, it made Gu Yunchen and the others mistakenly think that Ai Ren had reached his limit and was about to bite someone.
As Ai Ren kept calling out, the nearby residents were attracted to come over. Among them, an old lady, Su Qianqian's neighbor diagonally across the street, poked her head out of her own door.
She peered around curiously, wondering what the dog was barking about and if something had happened.
Gu Yunchen quickly stepped forward, a helpless expression on his face, and, posing as a peddler, "complained" to the old lady:
"Oh dear, ma'am, look at all these dogs in this alley! They're so scary! They've frightened us passersby so much that we don't dare to come here anymore!"
The old lady looked completely bewildered after hearing this.
Are there many dogs? And are they scary?
She looked around in confusion, muttering to herself, "I don't think this dog likes to bite, and it seems fine to me usually..."
Moreover, in this alley, only the young girl who recently moved in across the street has a dog!
After all, some wealthy merchants lived in this alley before, and the dog usually seemed quite quiet!
The old lady glanced at Gu Yunchen, her eyes flickered, and then she looked at the elegant and luxurious lady dressed in fine silks and satins.
The noblewoman was surrounded by several guards, and behind her was a man leading a huge dog.
Seeing the dog's fierce appearance really startled her. Her heart tightened, and fearing that she would cause trouble, she quickly pulled her head back and slammed the door shut with a "bang".
And so, Jiang Mianmian led her group of guards, quickening their pace, and disappeared at the end of the alley in the blink of an eye.
As they reached the alley entrance, a lavishly decorated and spacious carriage was quietly parked to the side, waiting for their return.
People around were coming and going in a hurry, and didn't pay much attention to this scene.
Apart from the clueless dog involved, no one knew that they had just gone to Su Qianqian's house and experienced something unusual.
As soon as he entered the carriage, Gu Yunchen could no longer suppress his eagerness and curiosity. He deliberately lowered his voice and leaned closer to Jiang Mianmian to ask:
"Mother, what exactly did you see just now? Did you feel that big black dog might be... him?"
Although he already had the answer in his heart, out of caution and respect, he still couldn't omit the question.
Jiang Mianmian nodded in affirmation, a complex emotion flickering in her eyes, and said slowly, "Yes! It's definitely him."
The situation seemed a bit strange; he appeared to have lost his memory and mistakenly believed himself to be a dog demon.
That's why when the people you sent to keep watch on him went to ask him about those things, he had no idea what you were trying to do.
Not only that, he even regarded those who went to gather information as villains with ill intentions towards him, believing they were plotting against this "dog demon"!
"Lost...lost his memory?!" Gu Yunchen's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
Just now, when I overheard his mother looking through that plot analysis, she didn't mention this matter at all!
"That's right, he has amnesia. Otherwise, why do you think he would start dating Su Qianqian? He's always thought of himself as a dog demon!"
"Oh I got it!"
Gu Yunchen nodded in sudden realization, muttering to himself: No wonder, even though it looks like the same person, his behavior is very different.
After all that, it turned out he had amnesia and had mistaken himself for a "dog demon."
However, considering Situ Wenqi's philandering and all the tolerance and accommodation towards Su Qianqian, it makes one wonder...
It makes sense that he was even willing to become a "dog" to stay by her side in the end—after all, in his mind, Su Qianqian was his savior!
He clearly doesn't see himself as a human being, but rather as a dog.
But now a new problem arises: how can he explain this to someone who has completely lost their memory and firmly believes they are a dog demon?
He was originally a human, but he was temporarily turned into a dog. How can he accept and recognize this fact?
