Chapter 72 Drink This Cup of Milk
Nancy looked at Lvan with confusion.
Lvan said nervously:"There is a big dog in that house. I'm afraid that the cat will be eaten by it after falling into that yard. I have to climb up the wall to have a look."
Lvan put his drawing board down. He moved backed further away from the wall, and then jumped after a run-up. With a bang, his forehead hit the wall.
The clean and good-looking boy covered his forehead with hands and had tears in his eyes because of pain.
"Sorry, I overestimated myself."
He was unable to climb over the wall.
Nancy ran to check her cousin's head seriously. "Cousin, are you alright?"
"I'm alright." Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Lvan bared his teeth in pain and rubbed his forehead with his fair fingers. His skin was originally fair, so his forehead turned obviously red after a hit, making him look miserable.
Nancy helped him lightly rub his forehead with her hands and then blew on the wound a few times.
"Cousin, why don't we enter the house through the main gate."
With a sweet voice, Nancy pointed to the main gate not far away.
Lvan explained, "...because I was frightened by the dog before when I passed there."
Although the dog didn't bark or bite him, he was still frightened at the time. The dog was so big. It made people feel oppressed when it stood up. Therefore, he was so frightened that he ran home with a cry, even though the dog just glanced at him.
Although the good-looking child who lived in the house apologized to him later, the child made him cry again, because the child came with the dog!
Anyway, the dog caused a psychological trauma for him. Nevertheless, he liked cats!
"Or... let's go in and have a look."
After the hesitation, Lvan was still afraid that the dog would bite the cat.
Nancy was also a little worried. She didn't know if the cat was painful after felling off from such a high place.
These two person walked to the gate of the mansion hand in hand as if they were encouraging each other.
Like the gate of Carter Family, there were also two majestic stone lions in front of the gate.
They knocked, but no one answered. Both of them thought it was impolite to walk in without permission.
While they were hesitating, they suddenly heard a loud bark and a meow. But for Nancy and Lvan at that time, the meow sounded a little miserable.
The two innocent persons didn't consider too much anymore. They pushed the door one after the other and run in. Then, they met a big black dog inside.
It was really... really big!
Nancy felt that it might be taller than her when standing up, like a giant beast. Even though it was just standing far away, she still felt oppressed.
Lvan was so frightened that his face turned pale.
The dog just glanced at them, and then suddenly lowered its head to bite the orange cat shivering in the corner.
"Stop!"
Lvan was so scared that he could even overcome the fear in his heart and run to prevent the dog.
Nancy followed him. But before they ran up to them, they found that they had misunderstood. The dog just carefully picked up the orange cat in its mouth, but had no intention to bite it.
Although the cat's sound was a little miserable, it was only because of being frightened.
Keeping the little cat in mouth, the dog walked towards these two people with a steady and seemingly sonorous steps.
Lvan was so frightened that he shivered like the orange cat, but he still stood firmly in front of Nancy and opened his arms to protect the little girl behind him.
Grasping Lvan's clothes with her fair fingers, Nancy poked her head behind Lvan and stared at the dog with her big eyes. Unlike Lvan, she actually did not fear it so much.
"Nancy, stand behind me. Don't...don't stand out, I...I will protect you."
His voice still trembled.
The little girl just felt warm in her heart. All her brothers treated her well, so she felt so happy.
But...she was really not afraid of dogs.
So at this time, let her protect the cousin.
The little girl walked to the front of Lvan. She stared at the dog which was taller than her when standing up, with her clear eyes.
"Cousin, don't be afraid."
Lvan was startled by her.
We're done!
"Big dog."
Nancy called the dog softly, and the dog had already walked in front of them.
It just glanced at Lvan, whose face was as pale as the dead. Then, it lowered its head and put the orange cat that was shivering with fright on the ground. It also sat down upright without a bark as well as any hostility.
Nancy tried to raise her arms to make her hand close to the dog.
The big dog didn't moved, still sitting down upright.
Under Lvan's scared gaze, Nancy put her hand on the dog's head.
The black dog tilted its head and lightly rubbed the little girl's hand.
Nancy laughed happily. At the time, her bright eyes was like a beautiful crescent and her simile showed her white teeth, which made her look soft and sweet.
"Brother, it doesn't bite people."
Lvan finally calmed down. He felt guilty for a while and then gave the little girl a praise.
His little cousin was really brave, at least much braver than him, which made him feel he was useless.
The boy squatted down nervously and picked up the orange cat that was still on the ground and didn't leave.
"Let's... let's go..."
Before he could finish speaking, there was suddenly a melodious and pleasant string sound, making people who heard linger on and forget to return.
The dog turned its head and looked at the inside room. Suddenly, it stood up and bite Nancy's clothes to take her in.
Nancy was forced to follow it. Holding the cat in his arms, Lvan glared at the black dog and also quickly followed them.
He shouted to the dog in his heart: you let go of my cousin now!
They came to the bamboo forest with a small bridge and flowing water, which was quite poetic.
And... the closer they went there, the clearer the sound was. Before, they could only catch some notes occasionally, but now they could clearly hear the entire score. The sound was a little bit depressed, making them feel nervous.
After crossing the small bridge and passing through a cobblestone path in the bamboo forest, they finally saw a pavilion where the sound was from.
A boy was sitting in front of the Guqin. His long fingers, which seemed they were carved from top- quality white jade, was strumming the strings at a fast speed, making music was tense and chilling as if on the battlefield.
"Who are you!"
The sound suddenly stopped. The boy sitting in the pavilion raised his head and looked at them with calm in his black eyes. He was like the character in a painting, who deserved to be call a graceful and talented person.
"Sorry...sorry, we didn't break in on purpose."
Under the boy's sight, Nancy blushed. She was originally shy. And now, they were found by the owner of this house that they had broken in without permission, which make her more ashamed.
Lvan pointed at the dog.
"It's your dog that dragged my cousin here."
Lvan said without a guilt.
