286 The Haunting in The Business District

Gao Peng wasn't affected by the rumors spreading about him. In fact, he was rather pleased these days. Even though he didn't want Da Zi messing with Stripey, not only did Stripey not seem to mind, it actually looked like it was enjoying itself.

Now that Da Zi wasn't there, Stripey was a little antsy. "Gao Peng, where is Da Zi? Why hasn't it come to play?" It flopped lazily onto the ground.

Gao Peng was about to tell him the truth, that he had told Da Zi to stay away, before he caught himself. Damn those large, soulful eyes.

"It is actually preparing a huge surprise for you."

"Really?" Stripey's face lit up.

"Yup!"

"Good." Satisfied, it shot the mansion an expectant glance, as though Da Zi would show up in front of it if it looked hard enough.

Stripey tried taking a quick nap, but all it could do was roll around restlessly wondering what surprise Da Zi was cooking up for it.
