The Return of Gratitude Volume 2

Qin Xiu's home is not far from the photography studio, just walk across a large park.The three-story old bungalow has a blue-gray triangular roof like a blue dog house. Qin Xiu rented the third floor, the one with the triangular roof.Archer and Qin Xiu walked up the turning ladder and entered the house. The house is very large, with two bedrooms and one living room, measuring more than 100 pings.

This is Xiaoxiu's (and my) home, Archer said sweetly in his heart, looking up and looking around, there is a cloth sofa in the center of the living room, the kitchen and the living room are integrated, but it doesn't look like it has been used much.Because it is a roof room, the walls on the east and west sides are slanted. The window is large and slanted. The place under the window is empty. Archer ran over and curled up under the window to feel it. The slanted window is like a half skylight. As soon as he opened his eyes, he could see the sky. It was still drizzling outside at the moment, and the water droplets slid on the glass. Archer imagined a warm light projected on the floor in the summer evening. The scenery should be the same when he sleeps at night. That's right, he turned his head and wagged his tail and said, "Wow!" It's good to put my nest here!

Qin Xiu threw the satchel on the sofa, glanced at the big golden retriever who was wandering around the room curiously: "It's raining, let me take a bath for you."

Archer was taken aback, he hadn't changed his body today, so he definitely couldn't wash it off, although he wanted to tell Xiaoxiu about his ability to change quickly, but he still couldn't be so hasty.

Qin Xiu went into the bathroom and put a tub of hot water in it, and when he came out, the big golden retriever was gone, and when he looked again, the tip of his tail was exposed behind the sofa, he propped himself on the door frame and said helplessly, "Come here, the water is getting cold. "

The tail shrank back from the sofa.

Qin Xiu walked behind the sofa, and picked up the big golden retriever that had buried himself with the sofa cushions and only exposed a buttocks and tail under his arm.

Archer was caught in mid-air with his head back and his butt forward, and walked to the bathroom. Qin Xiu knew this trick when he was a child, and it became an upgraded version when he grew up!The big golden retriever twisted and struggled vigorously under the arm, woo woo woo, it can't be washed!Qin Xiunu slapped the dog's butt with his mouth open: "Be honest!"

Archer is finished talking, why don't you quickly think of an explanation plan in your heart!

……

I rely on!Can't think of it!The young dog wants to cry but has no tears.No matter how you say it, it is impossible for a normal person to smile calmly and say, "Oh, that's right" after seeing a dog suddenly turn into a person.

When he was in a state of desperation, Qin Xiu suddenly let go of him and threw him into the bathroom. Archer slapped his feet firmly on the ground. Looking back, Qin Xiu said "wash yourself" and closed the door of the bathroom.

Thank goodness!Thank you for being inconsiderate!The curly-haired dog rushed forward and locked the door with a click. He drained the pool of hot water and replaced it with a pool of cold water. When he jumped in, he shuddered and sneezed.

Although it was hard to take a cold shower, when I thought that I would live under the same roof as Xiaoxiu from now on, I felt warm from the bottom of my heart.

Qin Xiu heard the sound of water splashing in the bathroom in the living room, and turned around and shouted: "Be honest!"

As expected, the sound of water splashes stopped.

When Qin Xiu came out of the darkroom, he found that half an hour had passed, and he didn't know what that dog was doing for so long, so he didn't turn his stomach and drown in it.Just as he was about to open the door, the door opened from the inside, and Gou Dong poked a wet head out of the crack of the door with a face full of shame.

Qin Xiu watched the big curly-haired dog come out shyly, its wet paws pattering on the wooden floor, it was cute when it had curly hair, but it was really ugly when it became like this.The big curly-haired dog flicked its wet fur, water splashed on Qin Xiu's chin, and he frowned: "Why is it so cold?" The stupid dog just looked at him and stuck out his tongue, "Forget it, I'll give it to you." Blow it."

Archer had just taken a cold shower, and the hot air blown by the hair dryer couldn't be more comfortable, especially when it was Xiaoxiu who was blowing the hair dryer for him.Qin Xiu's slender fingers gently rubbed his curly hair. In the past, he would only feel that Xiao Xiu's touch was very enjoyable, but now he feels a little embarrassed.

Archer raised his eyes and stared at Qin Xiu, who lowered his eyelashes. Xiaoxiu, who was in a natural state without sunglasses, was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off.It's hard to describe that kind of beauty, just like a pool of water, the breeze blows, and the cherry blossoms are calmly sprinkled, it's the kind of beauty that can firmly grasp your sight in a very ordinary moment.

That's why I'm embarrassed, Archer thought, blushing.

Qin Xiu pouted, picked up his tail with his fingers, and blew carefully inch by inch.Archer gradually couldn't bear it, why are you so obsessed with the tail, it's almost roasted, okay?

Qin Xiu held the tip of the tail between his fingers and combed it. While watching the tuft of golden hair on the tip of the tail shaking in the wind, he said to himself, "Why don't people have tails?"

Archer was speechless, why is he so childish, because people are useless in the long run!

"In this way, if it's cold at night, you can keep warm, and if your back is itchy, you won't be unable to catch it."

Archer said in his heart that if God told me that this thing can be used for warmth and scratching when I become a human being, and asked me if I want to grow one, I would not want it anyway...

"Usually you can play with your tail if you have nothing to do."

... I'm fine and I don't know how to play it. Why play with the tail when I have Warcraft?

"But it's not necessary to grow one specially." Qin Xiu grinned at the dog, "I'm enough to play with you."

Although the smile had a bit of a mischievous taste, it was also faintly sweet. Archer's heart skipped a beat before he came back to his senses. What do you mean it's enough to play with me?My tail is not for you to play with...

"Okay, let's blow it down!" Qin Xiu quickly turned the direction of the blower, oh my god, it's so uncomfortable to blow it to Jiji!Archer twisted his body unbearably, Qin Xiu pointed the blower towards the bottom and blew violently as if on purpose.

Brother, are you kidding me?This thing does not need to be blown, and it is done after two shakes when peeing normally!Archer lay down all over his body, huddled into a ball to protect the precious dog Chi Chi.

Qin Xiu patted him twice and he didn't stand up, so Qin Xiu took the blower and blew it around his buttocks. Although he lay down, the wind still leaked in a lot, and he wanted to pee after a while up.

Qin Xiu couldn't help laughing when he saw the dog standing up with a whimper and rushing off the sofa and into the bathroom.

Archer raised his hind legs to urinate into the toilet, and recalled the scene where Xiaoxiu flashed a camera on him in Houshan, which was clearly intentional!He rushed in too fast just now, the bathroom door was not closed, and he saw Qin Xiu bent over to put away the hair dryer outside, the big golden retriever pursed his mouth unhappily, but when he saw Qin Xiu looking up and smiling in the bathroom, he couldn't get angry anymore .

Qin Xiu made an omelette steak for dinner by himself, and because there was no dog bowl for the time being, he threw a steak to Archer who was lying at the table.Although dogs can't eat too salty food, it's not a problem at all for a refined dog. Archer opened his mouth and swallowed the steak.

"It's pretty accurate." Qin Xiu sat at the kitchen table and asked while eating, "Why are you different from other golden retrievers? Why is your hair curly?"

"Woof! Woof! (Because I can become a human!)" Archer replied proudly.

Qin Xiu cut a piece of steak and put it on a fork, thinking: "It's inconvenient not to have a name. Seeing how curly your hair is and your brain is so stupid, I'll call you Juan [-], okay?"

The big dog lay down with a whimper, looking very unhappy.

"You can understand human language?" Qin Xiu blinked and smiled as he looked at the big dog lying at his feet. He didn't believe that this dog could really understand human language, but this dog was indeed quite smart. "In that case, then just call you..."

Archer raised his head expectantly again, saw Qin Xiu bowing his head and showing him a perfect smile, and said, "Let's go to the second volume."

Uh...

Qin Xiu hummed a song and was in a good mood.

In this way, Archer finally settled down in Qin Xiu's house. Although Archer was very obsessed with the kennel under the skylight, Qin Xiu still let him sleep on the sofa temporarily.Archer saw the golden retriever hanging from the ceiling above the bed through the crack of the bedroom door. It looked very old.Although you once told him that you would not be a good master, you obviously like pets very much.

Qin Xiu would stay in the study for a long time at night. The study was divided into two rooms, one of which was a darkroom, but before entering the study, Qin Xiu would help him turn on the TV.

"Dogs don't seem to be able to see things on the flat surface, and they don't know if you can watch TV or not. It's fine if you can't watch or listen." Then he was tuned to the animation channel, which was playing Garfield, Qin Xiu shook his head and changed the channel. "You can't be like Garfield, ah, that's it."

Archer had no choice but to temporarily watch Ultraman Tiga on TV.

Qin Xiu came out of the darkroom after finishing his work. He was surprised to find that the TV had been switched to the movie channel and was playing "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button". , Half of the floor has been wiped, it is shiny and shiny, even the garbage in the trash can has been packed and placed in the entrance.The commercials started in the middle of the movie, and the second volume was buried in mopping the floor.

Qin Xiu's expression was a little complicated. This dog was too sensible, but it made him feel very uncomfortable. He couldn't tell what it was like, but he always felt that he owed him a lot.

After watching "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", Archer was very touched and switched to other channels, twenty...five channels!The dog's paw slapped down on the remote control, and it became 220 five.Oh no!twenty five! !The dog paws down again.The opera sound of "Kuuuuuuuuuuu" came from the TV.

Archer was furious, 25! 25!The dog patted his paw on the bad pad angrily, why couldn't he shoot it right!Slap!The remote control slid down under the sofa.The big golden retriever opened his mouth wide and was dumbfounded.

Qin Xiu walked out of the darkroom while moving his neck: "July [-], are you asleep yet?"

The sofa is empty, and when I look again, the big golden retriever is sleeping under the window.

"Isn't it cold to sleep there?" Qin Xiu shook his head and walked to the sofa to sit down. There was a shopping advertisement on the TV. He was about to change the channel, only to find that the remote control was missing. He frowned, "Put the remote control on the dog Where is it?"

Archer narrowed his eyes, seeing Qin Xiu rummaging through boxes and cabinets looking for the remote control, and finally got down on the sofa and found Shenyin's remote control.Then there was a scene that Archer will never forget—Qin Xiu raised his hand and lifted the sofa upside down, bent down to pick up the remote control.

Qin Xiu got up and pushed the sofa back. Seeing the sofa "plop" back to its original position, he suddenly understood.No wonder the dog wants to sleep by the window!You are still afraid that I will delay your sleep by looking for the remote control, right?Then why are you playing with the remote!

"Volume [-]! You don't have breakfast tomorrow!"

Archer sniffed mournfully.

"Why are you still lying there?" Qin Xiu patted the sofa cushion, "Come and sleep!"

The next day when Qin Xiu went to the photography studio, Archer got up early and waited at the door.

Qin Xiu put on his coat, lowered his head and said to him, "You don't have to go to the studio with me, and it won't be of much help."

As soon as these words came out, Archer was stunned.

"Anyway, it's just for me to adopt you. The purpose has been achieved. The photography studio is not suitable for dogs. Clients and models will feel shameful when they see it. Just stay at home obediently."

Archer stared blankly at Qin Xiu leaving, Qin Xiu was not accusing him, he was telling the truth, but this was not what he wanted.I want to be your sidekick, not a pet.

The big dog watched Qin Xiu's back from the window until he couldn't see it, and returned to the living room in despair. The huge house suddenly became deserted, and the big golden retriever stretched its neck to look at the dining table and cooking table.

Really no breakfast...

Qin Xiu would go to the studio every day regardless of holidays. There was a spare key under the coffee table. As soon as Qin Xiu went out, Archer took a shower and transformed. He stole Qin Xiu's clothes and went out with the key.

He now works part-time in a coffee shop in the morning, and after lunch, he goes to the bookstore to read and learn photography by himself. There are very few books on this subject in Qin Xiu's family, some of which are also in foreign languages, or are more about art than basic skills.But without the equipment to get started, you can only understand [-]% of it just by looking at it.

"Isn't Qin Xiu a photographer? He should have a lot of equipment at home. You can just find it yourself." Big Alaska said while lying on the side of the road basking in the sun, wearing a pair of sunglasses.

The big golden retriever rested his chin on his paws: "I think so too, but those equipments are quite expensive, and it would be bad if they were broken."

"Why didn't you have such awareness when you were practicing at my house?!"

Passers-by were surprised to see Alaska paw angrily on the big golden retriever's head, and the golden retriever only shook his ears listlessly.

The perplexed big Alaska simply rode on the back of the big golden retriever, paws kept beating, the big golden retriever looked preoccupied and let Alaska bully him.Everyone passing by laughed so hard.

Ren Hai was almost ravaged, he rode on the back of the big golden retriever and licked his paws and said, "Then when will you tell him that you can transform into a human?"

Speaking of this Archer is even more depressing, who told him to have an enmity with Xiaoxiu when he became a human, if he wants to repay his favor and become Qin Xiu's helper, he must confess to Qin Xiu sooner or later, but now is not the time, why? It will take a while, when the two have lived together for a long time and have a tacit understanding and trust, and the most important thing is to wait until Qin Xiu forgets about that cheating thing, or at least calms down with him.
