Tangling with the Western Commander

Chapter 273: Chapter 270: Lu Dog Takes the Initiative

Wen Xian immediately rushed toward the nearby vehicles.

She looked around and searched until she finally couldn’t help but shout loudly, “Laifu! Ping’an! Ping’an–!”

She alternated between its nickname and formal name, sure that it would recognize her voice!

Indeed.

At that moment, inside the last off-road vehicle near a man, on the passenger side.

The usually listless wolf-dog puppy seemed to have heard something, as its ears suddenly perked up.

Its little head lifted, listening intently to the sounds around.

“Ping’an…!”

After another call came, the wolf-dog puppy leaped up, giving Lu Xiao quite a scare.

It jumped right into Lu Xiao’s arms and lay at the car window, barking fiercely, “Woof! Woof! Woof!!”

The pup was so excited, it was as if it had been injected with adrenaline.

Upon hearing that sound, Wen Xian’s gaze immediately found its source, and sure enough, not far behind her, she saw a little puppy barking at the car window.

She immediately rejoiced and hurried over.

But as she quickly approached, she suddenly saw the little one that had been at the window disappear as if someone had pulled it down.

At that moment.

Inside the off-road vehicle.

Lu Xiao’s ears were red with irritation as he covered the pup’s mouth, scolding it in a low voice, “Don’t bark, sit down!”

The little guy whimpered, its excitement slowing as it stopped wagging its tail and sat there with big, round, shiny black eyes.

It now obediently sat on his lap and stopped howling.

Lu Xiao watched the approaching figure, and a throb began in his temples.

He tried to let go of the wolf-dog puppy.

But then.

The next second, something heart-stopping happened.

The moment he let go, the pup leaped from the half-open car window.

It began barking madly, and ran straight toward Wen Xian.

Lu Xiao just watched this completely unexpected scene unfold.

Suddenly, he closed his eyes tightly and forced a swear out of his mouth, “Fuck.”

This dog must be possessed or something.

Meanwhile.

Wen Xian watched as the little guy rushed over and, surprised and excited, stretched out her hands. The puppy leapt into her embrace, tumbling and licking her as if it couldn’t contain its eagerness and affection.

She laughed and played with it.

However, at that moment, she seemed to suddenly realize something, lifting her lashes slightly.

Seeing in front of her, those combat boots came into view.

Today, he was wearing loose camouflage pants, tucking the hem into his combat boots, looking sharper and more handsome.

His legs appeared even longer.

Yes, certainly strong and lean.

Wen Xian continued, slowly raising her eyes.

She saw him in a black windbreaker.

The collar was pressed against his Adam’s apple.

He seemed to have lost weight, making the angular contours of his face even more distinct.

The distant snow-capped mountains reflected in the sunlight, casting the shadow of his straight nose bridge, making his elongated, dark, and deep eyes stand out even more.

At that moment.

The two of them just looked at each other.

For how long?

She couldn’t clearly remember how long it had been since they’d last met.

All she knew was that every day without him was hard to endure.

Wen Xian looked at him and then, she lowered her head.

This time, she made no move to approach him.

She had already taken ninety-nine steps, the last one should not be hers to take.

Then.

Wen Xian heard his footsteps, steady, approaching step by step.

Finally, he stood in front of her.

She: “…”
