I became incredibly cute after dressing up as an animal!

Lin Jia has many relatives and many children.

These children watched the daily videos of Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi, and they all really wanted to play with them.

But many of these children are too old for even dogs to handle, and they are very rough when petting them, and their voices are very shrill.

Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi dealt with the child for a while, and then quietly ran away.

As the night wore on, more and more children came to the manor, and they gathered together to look for the dog.

"First year of junior high! Xiaoxiao! Where are you?" The little boy leaned on the stair railing and looked down.

Another little boy ran up from the other end of the corridor: "I don't have them here either. Are they hiding?"

The children ran from the first floor to the third floor, then ran back down. As they passed the kitchen, one child peeked inside and then ran away.

When they couldn't find it, they asked Lin Jia for help.

"Auntie, could you please call Xiaoxiao out?"

Lin Jia wouldn't betray her own child. She pretended to say, "Xiao Xiao won't come out even if I call her. You can look for her yourselves. Auntie has work to do." Then she quickly left.

Lan Xiaoxiao crouched behind a potted plant at the corner of the corridor. Chu Yi was close to her, and the two dogs huddled together. Lan Xiaoxiao twitched her nose and whispered, "Safe, let's go!"

Beagle led the way, with Border Collie close behind.

The two dogs hugged the wall as they crossed the corridor and went up the side stairs.

Footsteps came from downstairs. Lan Xiaoxiao quickly ran a few steps forward, and Chu Yi followed. They pushed open a half-closed door at the end of the stairs leading to the attic.

The lights in the attic were off, with only a little light coming in through a small window.

"No one will ever come here. This is our secret base," Lan Xiaoxiao said, looking around.

The two dogs were snuggling together.

I don't know whose stomach suddenly rumbled.

"Hmm?" Chu Yi tilted her head, stood up, and prepared to go downstairs to get some food.

Lan Xiaoxiao also stood up: "It's Chinese New Year today, we have to eat well. I heard the maid say that there will be poached chicken tonight. I don't know if it's been cut. Let's bring a whole one back to eat."

Boiled chicken, without any seasoning, is perfect for dogs.

Once they had a target, they came down from the attic.

As soon as we came down, we encountered a little girl. The two dogs immediately shrank back. Luckily, they were almost discovered.

Once the footsteps faded into the distance, Lan Xiaoxiao stood up, listened intently for a while, and when she was sure there was no more sound, she turned to Chu Yi and said "wer," signaling Chu Yi to follow her.

The two dogs quietly crept downstairs and back towards the kitchen along the corridor.

The kitchen was bustling with activity; the sounds of spatulas, chopping vegetables, and conversations in both Chinese and English mingled together.

Lan Xiaoxiao spotted her target in a second!

A chef had just placed a whole poached chicken into a white plate and turned to get the side dishes.

Lan Xiaoxiao immediately darted inside, grabbed a piece of the poached chicken, and ran away as soon as she got it in her mouth!

The chef felt something flash by, glanced back, and saw the plate was empty. He paused, stunned. "Where's the chicken I just fished out?"

"What?"

Lan Xiaoxiao had already snatched the whole chicken and slipped away with Chu Yi through the side door of the kitchen.

The two dogs climbed up the side stairs to the attic, and the Border Collie used its paw to push the door back and close it.

Big sat down, very excited.

"This chicken smells so good!" She couldn't resist bending down to tear off a piece of chicken breast and starting to eat!

The Border Collie slowly lowered its head to eat, its expression elegant.

Two dogs were crouching under the small window of the attic, from which one could see the hills and vineyards behind the estate.

Adult voices came from downstairs. Lin Jia's mother stood in the middle of the living room: "Has anyone seen Chu Yi and Xiao Xiao?"

The children all chimed in, "We couldn't find it."

"I don't know where they went."

"Did they run away?"

Lin Jia asked, "Mom, why are you looking for them?"

"Your older cousin brought Bernese Mountain Dogs; he wants to play with them."

The sounds downstairs were chaotic and full of the smells of cooking.

In the attic, two small dogs were slowly savoring a slice of poached chicken.

This is definitely a free-range chicken from a farm; the skin is yellow and the meat is fragrant—it's delicious!

The attic door was gently pushed open a crack, and a huge head poked its way in through the gap.

Turn around and warn them immediately on the first day of the lunar month!

The Border Collie had a fierce look in its eyes, while the big head at the door looked bewildered.

Lan Xiaoxiao looked up and saw a fluffy, round head with round, black eyes. Brown and black fur covered the head, and a toy was in its mouth.

"Mount Bern!"

Lan Xiaoxiao was surprised!

She had seen these kinds of dogs online before, but had never seen one in real life.

So cute! Such a big head and such big feet!

They don't look a year old; they still look like babies.

The six-month-old Bernese Mountain Dog saw two dogs squatting in the attic, paused for a moment, tilted its head, looked down at the toy it was carrying, hesitated for a moment, let go of the toy, pushed the toy forward with its nose, and then quietly lay down at the door, resting its chin on the threshold, waiting.

This is an invitation for them to play!

Lan Xiaoxiao, with a chicken leg in her mouth, took small steps and walked over, circling around Mount Bern.

Bern Mountain lay still obediently, its dark eyes curiously watching Big.

Lan Xiaoxiao stepped on its thigh; the fur was thick and soft.

She glanced back at Chu Yi and exclaimed, "Look! It's huge and so cute! Let's pet it together!"

The first-year junior high student didn't understand why the little cutie liked this big guy so much.

It's big and silly.

Chu Yi squatted in place, watching, his tail neither wagging nor drooping, his gaze deep and unfocused.

Never mind, I don't like petting dogs in the first year of junior high.

Blue Little Chicken Leg was placed in front of Bern Mountain, and with a "wer" sound, it was for you.

Bern Mountain lowered his head to sniff the chicken leg, then looked up at Lan Xiaoxiao, before picking it up and eating it with loud smacking sounds.

After finishing his meal, he even licked the oil stains off the floor.

Little Blue squatted in front of it, watching it finish eating. Its tail wagged happily, and then it went over and touched Bern Mountain's face with its paw.

Mount Bigglesborn.

There were footsteps coming from downstairs towards the attic. The footsteps were very light, and they stopped at the door.

The door was pushed open completely. Lin Jia stood in the doorway and looked down to see three dogs in the attic. Chu Yi was squatting under the small window with a serious expression. Xiao Xiao was standing next to Bern Mountain, stepping on it with its feet. Bern Mountain was lying on the ground with its chin on its paws and a drop of oil on the corner of its mouth. It looked very well-behaved.

When they saw that the person who came was Lin Jia, they all greeted him with smiles.

Lin Jia squatted down. "I was wondering where it was. Turns out it came looking for you by following the dog's scent."

Bern Mountain stood up and went to rub against Lin Jia.

Lin Jia patted its big head.

"I'm taking my uncle downstairs, are you coming with me? Or are you going to stay hidden here?"

Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi don't go downstairs; the downstairs area is full of unruly kids.

Seeing that the Beagle and Border Collie weren't moving, Lin Jia understood. "Okay, I'll secretly bring you some treats up later. Happy New Year in advance!"

Lin Jia led Bern Mountain downstairs.

Little Uncle had no idea that he was about to be tormented by a group of children.

……

Lin Jia then brought out roast chicken and roast duck, along with vegetables, fruit, and milk—a very generous spread.

Lin Jia went downstairs to spend the Chinese New Year with her family.

Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi ate their fill in the attic.

Suddenly, with a bang, a beam of light shot into the sky outside the window, exploding into a dazzling array of colors.

It's fireworks.

Lan Xiaoxiao pulled Chu Yi to the window to watch the New Year's Eve fireworks.

Explosions echoed outside, and colorful fireworks lit up the sky.

Chu turned his head and saw the fireworks reflected in the little cutie's eyes.

My darling, we'll be together forever.

As the fireworks ended, Lan Xiaoxiao kissed Chu Yi: "Happy New Year! Chu Yi, we'll be together forever."

She wished that she and Chu Yi could be together for all eternity!

The more you love someone, the more you fear separation and the more you long to be together forever.

……

Two weeks later, Lin Jia returned to China with Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi. Sun Bai came to pick them up at the airport. He missed Chu Yi very much. Although Lin Jia sent him videos and photos of Chu Yi every day, he still missed him.

He practically raised Chu Yi from scratch; Sun Bai had never been separated from him for so long.

Lin Jia pushed out with a suitcase and two dog carriers. Sun Bai rushed up to take them and opened the suitcases as soon as they left the airport building.

Sun Bai hugged Chu Yi and said, "You seem to have gained weight?"

When I looked down at myself, I realized I'd gained muscle.

"Young Master, do you miss me?" Sun Bai asked.

At first glance, his expression was indifferent, but his noble head still twitched slightly.

Sun Bai immediately exclaimed, "You said you wanted to?! You nodded, I saw it!"

Why is someone so startled and flustered on the first day of the lunar month?

Lan Xiaoxiao chuckled to herself as she watched this scene.

When Chu Yi was a panda, her only bond was with her, but in this life, Chu Yi also has a family.

Sun Bai announced some big news after the New Year!

He's in a relationship!

He saw her while they were shopping, and even took the initiative to ask for her contact information and pursue her relentlessly.

"I confessed to her yesterday, and she said yes," Sun Bai said, both proud and a little blushing.

Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi both looked surprised. Lin Jia smiled and said, "Wow, that's impressive! Can I see your girlfriend's picture? You took the initiative, she must be very beautiful."

"She's very beautiful, totally my type." Sun Bai showed Lin Jia and Lan Xiaoxiao the photo for the first time.

A woman wearing a white down jacket looked to be in her early twenties, with a cool and aloof beauty and a very elegant demeanor.

Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi: So Sun Bai likes this kind of thing.

Lin Jia sends her heartfelt blessings.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I went home with Sun Bai.

……

Lin Jia's main job is managing the family company, and her side job is being a pet blogger. It can be said that she excels in both careers.

She enjoys experiencing many things, but she's completely uninterested in romance, as if she's missing a screw.

Sun Bai's girlfriend is named Wang Qi. She looks aloof, but she speaks very gently and is especially attentive to Chu Yi and Lan Xiaoxiao.

After dating for a year, Sun Bai and Wang Qi moved in together.

Two years later, Sun Bai and Wang Qi got engaged and married at the end of the same year.

At the same time, Lin Jia also got engaged to a man she met in the business world. They were a perfect match, equals in social standing and strength.

Sun Bai whispered, "Your fiancé doesn't seem like the kind of person who never smiles..."

Lin Jia: "Because he looks silly when he smiles, he's faking it, he often has a dead fish face."

Wang Qi chuckled: "It seems Jiajia has seen him laugh quite a bit in private."

Lin Jia nodded: "Of course."

Over the years, Lin Jia and Wang Qi have become very close. Women have so many private topics to discuss, and Sun Bai feels like he can't even get a chance to join in.

Humans change: falling in love, getting engaged, getting married, even Wang Qi getting pregnant. The only things that remain unchanged are Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi.

The two puppies seem to have frozen in time; they grow the same every year, neither getting fat nor thin, and are just as lively.

Sometimes, Lin Jia and Sun Bai would forget how old they were.

But after the puppies turned ten, Lin Jia and Sun Bai couldn't forget them. They always remembered their age and wished time would slow down.

Ten-year-old Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi are still very lively and active. When playing frisbee at the dog park, they always run to the front and no other dog can take their frisbee away.

Every year during the check-up, the indicators were excellent, and the veterinarians praised Lin Jia and Sun Bai for taking such good care of their dog.

Lin Jia and Sun Bai both have children, who are five or six years old, right at the age where they can cause trouble.

Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi are very tolerant of their children, but Lin Jia and Sun Bai do not allow the children to disturb the dog. When petting the dog, they must be very gentle, and they must not ride on the dog!

Lan Xiaoxiao and Chu Yi's daily accounts already have 30 million followers, making them top influencers on any video platform, both domestically and internationally.

That's right, they also have many fans overseas.

When she was five or six years old, she was even invited to act in top foreign films.

Over the past decade, we have achieved remarkable success in every aspect!

Starting this year, Lin Jia and Sun Bai stopped taking them on any events, but continued with basic daily photo shoots, allowing the two puppies to play freely.

Lan Xiaoxiao knew exactly how long a puppy could live, so she enjoyed the present moment!

She and the first-year students were both in good health. At eleven and twelve years old, their physical examinations were still very good, except that they ran a little slower.

That day, Lin Jia received a phone call, her eyes reddened, and she turned to stare at Big, who was lying on the carpet. Suddenly, she put down her phone, rushed over, and hugged Lan Xiaoxiao.

"Baby, I hope you stay healthy."

"wer?"

That evening, Lan Xiaoxiao learned that her older cousin's uncle had passed away; he was old and died of a heart attack...

From that day on, Lin Jia became a bit stressed, forbidding Lan Xiaoxiao from running too fast or for too long, and making her food more refined.

Sun Bai also used the same standards to help Chu Yi take care of his health.

Chu Yi is fifteen years old, and Lan Xiaoxiao is fourteen. They can still run and jump, but their physical examinations have revealed some minor issues.

The dogs at the dog park have all changed now.

Golden Retriever DouDou is gone. Its owner hasn't appeared for a long time and has recently been coming to the dog park alone, staring blankly at the lawn.

Alaska Shanshan's account has also stopped updating because Shanshan left...

Many fans are very worried.

"Xiaoxiao and Chuyi are both this age now. Every time an update notification pops up, my heart skips a beat when I click on it. I'm terrified of seeing some kind of announcement."

Please, please let the puppy live a little longer.

"If these two accounts also stop updating, I'll really cry my eyes out."

"I got a beagle after watching a short video. It's really mischievous, like a little devil, but it's also incredibly cute and brings me so much joy. I can't even imagine what my life would be like without them."

Many fans cried beforehand; they couldn't help it, they were too afraid of losing him.

The moment you decide to get a puppy, you've already planted a seed of sadness that will take root, sprout, and grow more than a decade later.

One afternoon, Chu Yi and Lan Xiaoxiao were lying on the carpet.

The sound of keys being pressed could be heard incessantly.

"My little cutie, my little one, I love you."

"First Day of Junior High, I love you."

The button clicked, and the two dogs pressed their paws onto the "I love you" keypad.

The buttons in the living room kept playing "I love you" sounds, while the two puppies had fallen silent.
