Chapter 136 - 136: Shameful Name

She thought for a while but failed to think of a good name for him. She thought the names she came up with were not good. So, she asked the netizens.

"The puppy has no name yet. I can't come up with a good one. To thank you for your concern for the puppy all the time, you now can name it... The one with the most likes will be the lucky one." Said KAP.

She felt that, with the wisdom of millions of netizens, she would certainly be able to give the puppy a nice name.

But soon, she regretted doing this.

Because the name with the most likes is… Dick!

And the netizen who gave that name was… Chubby!

Sophia felt that she had set a trap for herself. Any name was better than that one.

She sent a private message to Chubby.

"Why do you want to name him DICK?"

"It sounds good." Replied Chubby.

"Can you give him a better name? He is so young. Do you want him to live a life with such a name?"

"This is not my decision. It is the voice of the netizens. Accept it."

Sophia decided to talk about the puppy's name later and changed the subject. "Thank you for keeping the puppy. I went to see him today. He looks healthy."

"It's all right. And… you can say his name, Dick."

She had to change another subject. "What a coincidence. I happen to know your cousin's dog worker."

"Really? I never met him. Is he handsome?"

Sophia was confused. Why was this person concerned about if he is handsome or not?

But she replied anyway.

"Yes. The only drawback is that he looks a little old."

There was a long silence before Chubby replied, "Well… What do you think of him?"

"Nice guy, just a little... silly. Don't hate him. He is a serious worker. Silly as he is, it won't affect the work."

Albert was shocked.

He was happy to hear her say he was handsome, but… old and silly?

He was young, handsome, and smart. That was what the people around him said about him… Were they all lying to him?

He was hurt.

The next day after school, Sophia saw Albert's car park outside the school.

"I'm just going to feed the dogs. Do you want to see your... dogs?" Albert poked his head out the window. "You can hitch a ride."

Sophia didn't plan on seeing Mitch and the puppy this day, but since Albert wanted to give her a lift and she wanted to see the dogs, she thought for a moment and agreed.

She put her bike in school and got to Jasmine's by Albert's car.

Jasmine was at home. When she saw Sophia and Albert coming together, she smiled vaguely. "Sophia, are you here to see Mitch? They are doing well in my house. Of course, thanks to this… dog worker."

She said, smiling meaningfully at Albert.

Albert didn't look at her but gave a cough. "Let's go. I… I have other work to do later."

Jasmine laughed, "Other work? Are you going to feed another dog?"

"… yes."

Jasmine led them to the backyard, where the dogs were sunning themselves. When Mitch heard someone coming, he looked back, immediately stood up and ran towards Sophia.

Sophia hugged him, then walked to the mother dog and the puppy.

"Chubby has a good eating habit, and he may open his eyes in a few days."

Sophia nodded. "Well, I've seen netizens say that puppies can open their eyes for about ten days. Wait, wait. Chubby? You mean…"

Jasmine pointed at the puppy. "Him, of course. I name him. Is it good?"

Sophia kept nodding. "Very good!"

Except for Dick, any name was fine.

But… Chubby? Why did it sound familiar?

"Won't your cousin be angry?" Sophia asked.

"No. He'll be happy," Jasmine said with a serious face.

Albert's face changed. Taking advantage of Sophia's failure to notice, he gave Jasmine a hard look and threatened her with a gesture of wiping his neck.

Jasmine ignored him, got close to Chubby, bent down, and picked him up. "Chubby, you have to grow up quickly. I'm waiting for you to marry."

Albert regretted sending the dog to Jasmine's. Was it too late for him to pretend that none of this had happened?

***

This evening, Sophia happily posted a message.

"The girl who helps raise the puppy named him 'Chubby'. He liked the name very much. So, you can call him Chubby."

Soon, the message was complained by netizens.

"You want to forget about the message you posted yesterday, do you?"

"You don't like Dick, so you name him Chubby. Right? I see you through."

"Just do it, girl. I don't think Dick is a good name. He certainly doesn't want to live his life under this shameful name."

"Wait. Is the guy who helped raise the dog named Chubby? This guy really has a big heart."

"KAP said it was a girl, not a man. Chubby is a girl. Yeah! I always thought it was a creepy guy. I was worried that my goddess would meet a filthy man."

However, some people spoke for Chubby.

"Chubby is a handsome guy. Super handsome."

"Chubby is a good guy. He is kind and warm-hearted. Don't maliciously speculate on others, okay?"

"I think Chubby is perfect for KAP. They are doomed to be together. I wish they can be together."

Sophia was confused about these comments. How come she goes well with Chubby? They had not even met each other.

Soon, some netizens pointed out that these comments were from Chubby's Internet water army. Because the accounts that spoke for Chubby were not real-name authentication accounts, and some were found out to be professional water army accounts who had defended scandalous stars.

They discovered a terrible thing: Chubby had an online water army. What a horrible person! In their impression, the person who could hire an online water army was mostly stars.

She thought netizens were so powerful that they could solve cases with their analytical ability. She knew Chubby was rich.. He might hire an online water army to defend him when he saw people say bad things about him.
