Pampering my cute pet

Chapter 9: Red Bean

"Go wave down a taxi for me!" Yu Wan didn't have a car, and her driver's license was rotting away somewhere in her apartment. Since there was nobody around, she could only have the three kids go.

The children stood still in shock.

"Don't you see how much it's bleeding? Go, now!"

The kids looked as if they wanted to run, but Yu Wan shouted furiously, "There are security cameras all over the place, I'll report you three to the police if you don't!"

Given their young age, they were quite frightened by the idea of policemen. The bigger girl furrowed her brows, "Miss, I'm sorry, but could you promise not to tell our parents or the police... My parents will yell at my brother if you do. If, if you promise then I'll go get a taxi."

Yu Wan's eyes darkened. "Does it really matter whether or not your brother will get yelled at! If you don't go, I might just stab him myself!"

The boy crouched behind the girl in fear. When the three of them were playing with the dogs, he had just come back from art class, so he had a boxcutter on him.* He got in trouble quite often and grew mischievous at the sight of the dog. The boy just wanted to scare it with the knife, but he didn't expect the dog to struggle and the knife to really go in. The blade was too sharp, and blood instantly start to pour out...

When the girl heard Yu Wan's words and looked at her expression, her instinct told her that this person might really stab her brother. She bit her lip and thought to first find a taxi and then her parents to deal with this mess.

Since taxis couldn't drive in from the outside, the girl ran out to flag one down. Yu Wan hoisted Red Bean onto her shoulders. The dog was large and very heavy, so Yu Wan had difficulty while carrying it.

The driver was aghast when he saw the bloodied Yu Wan and two large dogs. "M-Miss, you're..."

"Drive to the nearest animal hospital!"

"With this much blood..."

"I'll pay you three times the normal fee, so please drive!"

"... Okay, okay."

On the way, Red Bean whimpered as it laid on Yu Wan's leg. Yu Diandian sat uncomfortably nearby, and Yu Wan's hands didn't stop shaking. She bit her lip tightly as she stared at Red Bean.

The smell of blood was very heavy, and Red Bean looked like it was in a great deal of pain. Yu Wan felt like her heart was stabbed.

She didn't know what to do with Shen Qingzhou and couldn't muster the courage to call him and hear his voice. Shen Qingzhou treasured Red Bean and entrusted it to her, but she had failed him. A feeling of immense guilt surged within her, and Yu Wan's eyes started to redden. Tears blurred her line of sight.

Yu Wan had already forgotten the last time she had actually cried. It was very rare for her to do so, but now that both feelings of guilt and sorrow had combined, she couldn't stop her tears. The driver glanced at her through the mirror and couldn't help but try to comfort her. "Miss, don't cry. We're very close to the hospital.
