“It will be my honor. Then, I’ll have to trouble Young Master Sheng to lead the way.” Cheng Xinkai was overjoyed. He increasingly felt that Sheng Jiu was a fool who was easy to deceive.

The backyard of the Sheng family was huge. Sheng Jiu took Cheng Xinkai to the kennel in the backyard. “Woof…”

As soon as Cheng Xinkai heard the bark, he stopped in his tracks. His expression was a little ugly. Sheng Jiu asked him, “What’s wrong, President Cheng?”

“Young Master Sheng, is there a dog in your backyard?” Although Cheng Xinkai pretended to be calm, his voice was trembling. Of course, Sheng Jiu knew that Cheng Xinkai was afraid of dogs, but he had always tried to maintain his image publicly, so no one knew about this. But, Sheng Jiu had once been very close to him, so she naturally knew this, which was why she deliberately brought Cheng Xinkai to the backyard.

“Don’t be afraid. What’s so scary about dogs?” Cheng Xinkai pretended to be calm. Anyway, the dogs were locked up. No matter how ferocious a big dog was, there was nothing to be afraid of if they were locked up.

“Is that so? That’s great.” Cheng Xinkai didn’t see the mockery in the depths of Sheng Jiu’s eyes. He followed behind Sheng Jiu and continued walking. Just then, two black shadows flew over like arrows and quickly pounced on Cheng Xinkai. By the time Cheng Xinkai reacted, the two dogs were already biting the bottom of his pants.

“Ahhh! Don’t bite me! Go away!” Cheng Xinkai went crazy when he saw the two big dogs biting his pants. He lost control of himself and his image. The more he struggled, the tighter the two dogs bit him. Sheng Jiu was watching the show excitedly.

“Young Master Sheng, make them stop. I…” Cheng Xinkai shouted.

“Who released the dog?” Sheng Jiu asked pretentiously with a cold face. No one responded. Only Jiang Pan, who was standing far away, made an OK gesture to Sheng Jiu. The dogs were released by Jiang Pan to bite Cheng Xinkai.

“President Cheng, didn’t you say that you’re not afraid of dogs? My dogs are only this enthusiastic because they like you. If you hate them, I’ll ask them to leave now,” said Sheng Jiu.

“I… I don’t hate…” Cheng Xinkai really couldn’t bring himself to say that he was afraid of dogs, as it would greatly affect his image.

When Sheng Jiu saw Cheng Xinkai’s appearance, she did not have any sympathy. After the two dogs tore Cheng Xinkai’s pants and scratched his hands and feet, she gestured to Jiang Pan to pull the dogs away.

“President Cheng, I’m really sorry to have frightened you.” Although Jiang Pan apologized, the expression on his face did not show he was apologetic. Jiang Pan did not know that Cheng Xinkai was so afraid of dogs. When the dogs pounced on him, he collapsed to the ground.

Jiang Pan raised his eyebrows at Sheng Jiu. He did not expect his silly cousin to be so good at messing with people. But how did she know that Cheng Xinkai was afraid of dogs?

“I, I’m fine…” Cheng Xinkai quickly got up from the ground in a sorry state. He had lived for more than 20 years, but he had never been in such a sorry state. He had always been the one to teach others a lesson. How could it be anyone else’s turn to teach him a lesson? He inexplicably felt that Sheng Jiu and Jiang Pan did this on purpose, but they shouldn’t know that he was afraid of dogs. No one knew about this.

“President Cheng, you’ve been scratched by a dog. You have to get a rabies vaccine. It won’t be good if you get rabies. I’ll send you for an injection first. The Sheng family will pay for it,” Sheng Jiu emphasized.

“Young Master Sheng, you don’t have to worry. I’ll go myself. I’ll take my leave first.” Cheng Xinkai quickly ran away.

“How cowardly. I’ve taken photos and videos.” Jiang Pan handed a phone to Sheng Jiu.

Sheng Jiu said, “Thanks.”

“We’re cousins. Why are you being so polite? But how do you know that Cheng Xinkai is afraid of dogs?” Jiang Pan was puzzled. Sometimes, Sheng Jiu seemed to know nothing, but at the same time, she seemed to know everything.

Sheng Jiu said, “Know yourself and your enemy, and you will win every battle.”

Jiang Pan nodded, thinking that Sheng Jiu had investigation Xinkai previously. He agreed and said, “Yes, our Little Jiu is getting smarter and smarter.”

“Little Jiu, are you alright?” Madam Sheng had just heard the barking and was afraid that something would happen to Sheng Jiu. She hurried over to take a look and happened to see Cheng Xinkai get into the car in tattered clothes without even greeting her.

“Mom, I’m fine. It’s President Cheng.” Sheng Jiu was delighted at the thought of Cheng Xinkai being bitten by dogs. This was just the beginning. She hoped that Cheng Xinkai could withstand the “surprise” she would give him again and again in the near future.

Madam Sheng was surprised. “Mr. Cheng was bitten by the dogs?”
