The butler had spoken without thinking, but upon hearing this, Xu Chaomu paused her movements. How could she stay at the Shen family's house.
The butler quickly changed the subject, addressing Dabai, "Dabai, you must always be good to Chaomu, understand?"
Dabai licked Xu Chaomu's hand and squinted its eyes contentedly.
Xu Chaomu smiled, "Dabai, how can you still be so adorable? When I'm free, I'll take you for a walk."
Dabai barked twice in response to Xu Chaomu, as if it understood her words.
Xu Chaomu remembered a night five years ago when she was walking with Dabai and Shen Chi. They were strolling along a path lined with peach blossoms.
Dabai ran happily in front, while she followed with its leash in her hand, and Shen Chi walked by her side, a light smile on his handsome face.
But five years had passed, and everything had changed.
