Chapter 560: Sneaking Out

“Wait for me.”

The plan was made. Snowy notified Vivi, then used the official Weibo and Wechat accounts to send out a last-minute live broadcast notification. “Hello, everyone. It’s very foggy today. Is everyone staying home? Today, Snowy will take a mysterious pretty girl to visit the pet shop. Stay tuned!”

Her diehard fans, curious about the mystery girl, quickly commented their guesses on who it might be. Snowy had never done a live broadcast with someone else. The mysterious pretty girl must be very close with Snowy.

Vivi tried to stop her anxiety. “Snowy, don’t say ‘pretty girl’. They’ll laugh. Plus, if my mom sees…”

“Don’t worry, Vivi. You can wear a mask for the broadcast, nobody will recognize you.” Snowy was confident. She quickly responded to some fans’ questions, reminded Vivi about something, then packed up to leave.

Snowy was still in pajamas and needed to change, so Vivi exited the room.

Jiang Tianda was sitting on the couch, reading a biography. He lifted his head, saw it was Vivi, and he asked politely, “Vivi, what’s wrong? Did you and Snowy have an argumnent?”

“No, Uncle Jiang. I need to buy some makeup, lipsticks and other things. Can I take Snowy with me? I need someone to help me pick the color.” Vivi said nervously, licking her lips. Snowy claimed that if she didn’t use this excuse, her father would never let them out.

“Makeup?” Jiang Tianda was surprised. Snowy barely put anything on her face except the most basic moisturizer, and somehow Vivi was able to convince her to buy makeup? Was she a good influence?

“Yes. The outlet downtown has some new arrivals. I want to check them out.” Vivi spoke haltingly.

Jiang Tianda believed her and agreed, “Okay, you girls go ahead. Are you coming back for lunch?”

“We’re not sure yet,” Vivi replied.

“Fine. It’s foggy. Be careful on the road.” Jiang Tianda stood up from the couch. Since he no longer needed to guard the door, he intended to head back to the study and work on the company’s business. It was busy at the end of year.

“Okay,” Vivi agreed.

Snowy dressed and opened the bedroom door. She left the door open so that Snowball could roam around the house. She took Vivi’s arm naturally. “Vivi, sorry for the wait. Let’s go!”

Jiang Tianda looked at them with suspicion. He still couldn’t believe that Snowy would go shopping for makeup. After careful inspection, when he didn’t see Snowy carrying a selfie stick, his doubt dissipated. Maybe Snowy had finally reached the age of paying attention to her looks.

Snowy stayed calm, and walked with Vivi as if they were close. They walked past Jiang Tianda’s line of sight, stopping to change their shoes and put on masks, then went out into the fog.

“Is it nice to trick your dad like this?” Vivi felt bad for lying to Uncle Jiang.

“No worries! My dad is a workaholic. He’ll never find out that we didn’t go to the outlet, nor does he know anything about makeup. We’ll buy lipstick from a random store on our way back. It’ll be fine!” Snowy spoke with much ease.

Vivi was about to speak when Snowy interrupted her. “Vivi, wait for me here.” Snowy didn’t explain further. She let go of her hands and ran past the house.

A moment later, Snowy reappeared in the fog with a short stick. “Let’s go.”

“Snowy, where did you go?” Vivi asked curiously.

Snowy swung the new hand-held cradle head, and smirked. “I threw the stabilizer out the window, and had to pick it up. I always outsmart my parents. It’s like I’m an undercover spy!”

Vivi was speechless, but Snowy asked her to hurry up.

The villa area around the house was quiet. Snowy and Vivi approached a lake, hearing a few barks. Then, a fully grown Husky suddenly jumped out of the fog, with its tongue out, and dashed towards them.

“Ah! A dog!” Vivi screamed. She saw the big dog and thought it was aggressive, which frightened her.

Snowy didn’t care. She lifted one foot and yelled, “Stop! Good-For-Nothing! Stop running! Where’s Uncle Jin?”

The Husky was Jin Er’s. It tried to stop gracefully, but the road was damp and slippery from the ice. It slipped, landing on its back, and winked while it rolled towards them.

Vivi’s terror turned into sympathy. She suspected that the dog’s IQ was low.

Snowy had seen it before, and stopped it with her lifted foot.

Good-For-Nothing struggled to stand, and shook its hair like a handsome guy out of a shampoo commercial. It circled Snowy, sniffing her.

“Stop sniffing. Snowball didn’t follow me.” Snowy put her foot down, and introduced to Vivi. “Don’t be scared. This Husky is Good-For-Nothing. Like its name suggests, it can’t even fight a cat, while my Snowball can beat two of them!”

Vivi was speechless. It must suck to be this dog.

“Is it hurt?” She asked in concern after realizing that Good-For-Nothing had quite a slip.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“No, it’s fine. It has tough skin and enough muscle to endure a few slips.” Snowy smiled.

“Good-For-Nothing, where’s your master?” Snowy looked around, but didn’t see Jin Er.

Good-For-Nothing turned towards Jin Er’s house, and walked two steps.

“Not home? Or inside?” Snowy gestured with her hands. “Maybe he’s inside. It’s foggy, the air quality is bad. Good-For-Nothing, don’t roam around outside. Go home! We have things to do and don’t have time to play with you. Go!”

After being shooed, Good-For-Nothing realized that she wasn’t planning to play with it, and that the playful cat didn’t follow her today. It felt lonely as it whimpered and left with its tail down.

Snowy thought that if Good-For-Nothing lived in an ordinary home instead of a well-guarded villa, it’d have been sent to a dog meat restaurant if it was caught playing outside without it master. If it lived somewhere else, it wouldn’t have been so stupid!
