Xia Chu always felt that something was missing, but he couldn't remember what it was.

Until Dong's mother asked casually, "You only brought Da'an, didn't Xiao'an make a fuss?"

! ! ! !

Where's Xiao An? Is Xiao An missing?!

"Where's Xiaoan? Daan! Where's your brother?" Xia Chu quickly looked at Daan, who seemed stunned for a moment. Xia Chu didn't know how she could see the expression of confusion on a dog's face, but Daan gave her the impression of being confused.

Daan barked at Xia Chu twice, then turned and ran away. Xia Chu hurriedly chased after him, but a human with two legs couldn't catch up with a four-legged dog.

"Xiaochu! Xiaochu, don't be anxious. Dogs know the way. Daan must have gone to find his brother. Let's wait. You can't catch up with him." Dong's mother stood up and comforted him.

"The dog won't be lost, don't worry." Dong's father also said.

Xia Chu also knew this, but she still felt uneasy. She took Hui Hui's hand and said, "I'll go check it out. I'll be back soon."

Where was Xiao An? After chasing rabbits and butterflies in the wasteland for a while, he finally remembered to call out twice, but this time there was no response from his sister. He shook his ears and walked back from the wasteland to the official road. He happened to run into the group chasing Xia Chu. Xiao An and Da An had different fur colors, but they looked very similar.

"This dog..." An escort stopped and thought it looked very similar to the dog just now.

"Don't worry about the dog, just keep chasing! If the person runs away and the young master blames us, we will all be in trouble!" said the servant anxiously.

When the escort heard this, his face suddenly darkened and he continued to chase in the direction Xia Chu was running.

They didn't care about Xiao An, and Xiao An didn't care about them either. It just smelled the scent of its master and sister coming in that direction. But why did this group of people smell like its sister?

"Why is this dog following us?" The escort stopped again.

"Wild dog, why do you care about it?" the servant said impatiently.

"No, it doesn't look like a wild dog. It looks very similar to the one that bit the young master just now. Maybe it's also raised by that girl." The escort looked at Xiao An and suddenly had an idea. He didn't want to chase after her. The little girl was walking on the road and was stopped and molested. It was simply an unprovoked disaster. Letting a dog bite someone was the lightest punishment. If this was his sister, he would beat Lu Wu to death. But they also had to report. He stopped and looked at the dog in front of him who tilted his head to look at him. "This dog is raised by that girl. It's better to catch it. Maybe someone will come back to look for it. We don't have to chase it. The donkey runs very fast. There is no way we can catch it."

As soon as these words were spoken, the others stopped moving. Especially the escorts, they had no intention of harassing a young girl. Furthermore, they were only responsible for protecting the young master's safety, so deliberately looking for trouble wouldn't count. But Young Master Lu threatened to withhold payment, leaving them with no recourse.

"It's just a dog, how can you come back looking for it?" The servant was the one who wanted to catch the man the most. After all, he was a servant. If he couldn't do this job well, he would definitely be killed when he returned. But the escorts were different. They paid the money and left.

"I think those ladies take better care of their dogs than they do of themselves, treating them like their own children. They'll definitely come back," the escort said confidently. "We've even taken over escort missions specifically for dogs."

It was too late for the servant to say anything. In the time they had delayed, the man had already run far away.

"Catch the dog and say it was this dog that bit Young Master Lu." The escort added.

So everyone looked at Xiao An. Xiao An was sticking out his tongue and breathing heavily, looking stupid and easy to catch.

Good dog, come and fight for your master. The escort who suggested catching the dog drew his knife and said, "Go!"

"Woof!" Xiao An lowered his body, bared his teeth and let out a threatening growl, with his tail tightly clamped.

Xia Chu didn't catch up with Da'an, so she returned along the same route. Before she got close, she heard the barking of dogs and the screams of humans mixed together. She panicked and urged Huihui to run quickly.

When she finally reached them, her heart nearly jumped out of her throat. She saw several burly men brandishing knives, chasing and hacking at Xiao An and Xiao An. Xiao An's fur was soaked with blood. Da An bit one man's wrist and wouldn't let go. When another man swung his knife at him, he nimbly scurried away and bit the other man. Xiao An, panting heavily, collapsed to the ground.

"Xiao An!" Xia Chu jumped off the donkey and rushed over. "What are you doing?! Don't touch my dog!"

One person yelled, "Tell your dog to go away!"

"Da'an! Come back!" Xia Chu rushed towards Xiao'an, and felt a sticky feeling on his hands. He wanted to kill all these people! "Xiao'an, Xiao'an, are you okay?"

Da'an came back unwillingly and kept licking Xiao'an's head, face, and the places covered with blood.

Xia Chu felt Xiao An's body with trembling hands, but strangely, he only felt blood but no wounds.

Several escorts had sustained bite wounds of varying severity, mostly on their wrists and thighs. The escort leader gritted his teeth and angrily barked, "You two dogs have bitten so many of us. Now decide how to deal with this!"

Xia Chu felt Xiao An's entire body. He only had a small wound on his hind leg, but it wasn't deep. She breathed a sigh of relief, her mind calming down. "My dog has been trained since he was little. He's never bitten anyone unless attacked or instructed to. You all know what you did."

"I told you to just chop the dog to death! How are we going to report back if you're like this now?" The servant was angry and dissatisfied. His thigh and back were bitten and he was in terrible pain. It was all because of these escorts' soft-heartedness that they only wanted to capture the dog alive. Can you just catch a dog if you want? He looked at the woman. Everything started because of her. He said in pain: "Why don't you kill the dog and take this woman back!"

The leader of the escort team hesitated for a moment and looked at Xia Chu, seeming a little shaken.

Xia Chu glanced around, seeing who had made the decision, and immediately said, "I'm willing to pay for your medical expenses, and let this matter go. But if you dare to forcibly seize my daughter, my family is no stranger in Lin'an. When my father and brothers come looking for you, you're all so old, do you want to spend the rest of your lives in prison?"

The word "jail" stopped several escorts in their tracks.

But if he gave up right then, he wouldn't be able to explain himself to the young master. The escort leader hesitated for a moment. These days, escort agencies are everywhere, but theirs isn't well-known, and they don't have many employees. They can't take big jobs, and small ones aren't enough to support their family. They finally managed to get a high-paying job, but it's already been delayed for two months. If they don't get paid later, they're afraid they'll starve to death.

"What are you hesitating about! Aren't you afraid that our young master won't give you the money?" the servant shouted.

Xia Chu saw that the boy was up to no good and quickly said, "How much is it? I'll give it to you! Beat this boy up for me! You name your price!"
