My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 2166: Chapter 2168: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi

Actually, she had been getting along well with the neighbor across the street recently, and had become acquainted with Little Potato and the Filipino maid. Rarely were they all from Hua Country, so if the neighbor across moved away, she might be reluctant to see them go.

Jiang Nuan was pondering when she heard the Filipino maid’s voice denying, "Sir went home, it seems something urgent required his attention back home. Before he left, he said he would be back in a week, but yesterday marked a week, and he still hasn’t returned. I’m wondering if I should give him a call to ask if he’ll be coming back today."

So, he was supposed to return. Jiang Nuan felt relieved, called back the wandering Corgi, placed a collar around its neck, then took the leash and said, "Coincidentally, I’m heading to the nearby mall. I’ll bring back some dog food for the little guy. With its owner not at home, the dog food is probably running low."

Indeed, there wasn’t much dog food stored at home. The Filipino maid looked surprised and grateful, "Miss Susan, how could we trouble you like this?"

"No problem." Jiang Nuan, standing straight while holding the leash, glanced at the obedient dog squatting by her feet and smiled slightly, "I really like Nuan Tuan. Although I’m not its real owner, we often walk together, so I consider myself half its owner."

"Actually, you could become Nuan Tuan’s owner." In her excitement, the Filipino maid spoke too quickly.

Jiang Nuan, "What?"

She spoke so fast that even she wasn’t entirely clear.

The Filipino maid, recalling her introverted employer who dared not pursue girls, sighed with regret and shook her head, "Nothing, I meant that Nuan Tuan really likes you. In its eyes, you must be like its owner."

"Oh." Jiang Nuan pressed her lips together, a faint dimple visible on her cheek, gentle and composed. She teased the dog with her head down, then looked up and said, "I’ll take it out now."

"Okay."

...

Cities have their advantages, like Capital City, with its vast area, developed economy, and numerous people, offering everything.

But for a small city like Mahali, Jiang Nuan saw the merits of small cities, such as the city being small, fewer malls, and fewer people coming to malls. Shopping here doesn’t require fighting for parking like in Capital City, and checking out is convenient, with only a few people in line, and it soon being one’s turn.

Jiang Nuan bought dog food and also got canned beef snacks for the little guy. After checking out, she opened the car door and found that the little guy hadn’t held it in and had peed all over the car. Helpless, Jiang Nuan had to temporarily abandon her plans to buy clothes and household items and drove the car to a nearby 4S shop.

The 4S shop was just across a street from the mall. While she was waiting for the shop employees to help clean and change the car interior, a loud gunshot suddenly rang out from across the street.

Immediately after, chaos erupted across the street, with many people running out of the mall.

"What’s happening over there? I think I heard gunshots." The car washer, an African, was particularly sensitive to gunfire. Everyone inside the 4S shop noticed the commotion across the street and pointed towards it with unease.

Perhaps influenced by the surrounding emotions, the dog squatting beside Jiang Nuan, with its head drooping, suddenly began barking towards the street.

Jiang Nuan frowned, bent down, and picked it up, whispering into its ear, "Be good, Little Potato, don’t bark."

"Whimper, whimper." The Corgi’s large black-and-white eyes were filled with unease, emitting a whimpering sound, seemingly worried for her safety.

Before long, Jiang Nuan clearly saw what was happening across the street. Someone who had run out was shot in the back, with their back looking like it had burst open, blood splattering everywhere, causing a stir in the entire area.
