Chapter 1582 Something Big! Got a… Girlfriend?
In order to keep the dog head happy, Luke had personally “delivered” Gold Nugget to the bigshot who sold everything to combine with the latter.
Its main body was just a golden Slime ball that wasn’t very mobile. To get home quickly, it could only have the bigshot hurry back.
The next moment, the old man in black suddenly disappeared.
A few passers-by who noticed were shocked, but seeing the people still coming and going in a hurry, they could only wonder if they had hallucinated it.
Luke didn’t care about being noticed.
The bigshot’s appearance and identity was on file in many agencies.
Just now, several police cameras had already filmed him.
The bigshot was in a good mood today and was willing to go out for a stroll. Who cared?
The clone returned to the nest In less than two minutes. This was how close the tycoon’s house was to Luke’s.
The reason the dog head was in a hurry was because it refused to explain the situation to the bigshot.
That was because it had to do with Luke’s private affairs, and couldn’t be said carelessly. Also, it was a “big” situation but not urgent, so there was no need to explain it to the bigshot.
Luke could only have his clone hurry up and send Gold Nugget back in order to figure out what was going on.
Luke and Selina had just gone out to investigate a case, but Dollar was still at home. Gold Nugget just needed to combine with Dollar again and then send Luke and Selina a message.
After saying “thanks, Gramps,” in the underground passage, Gold Nugget turned into a ball of liquid and flowed toward the basement entrance.
In the basement, Gold Nugget said to Little Snail, “Where’s Dollar? Transmit my voice to it.” Saying that, the glowing golden dog head whistled.
Dollar was lounging in its bed in front of the living room window, the sunlight making it drowsy.
The guy who was always talking in its head was quiet today. It could finally sleep.
When it heard the whistle, however, its ears perked up and its eyes immediately opened. It got up and looked around.
Gold Nugget said helplessly, “Stupid dog, come downstairs.”
Dollar immediately switched directions and ran down from the second floor to the workshop on the first floor.
It had very good hearing now, and had long heard Gold Nugget calling “silly dog, stupid dog, lazy dog” from the workshop.
If a person heard that, they would definitely fall out with Gold Nugget.
But for Dollar, this was a “partner” who whispered in its ear every day; it was an extremely familiar “summons.” Thus, it ran into the workshop and licked the golden Slime like crazy.
Gold Nugget was angry. “Annoying. You have too much saliva, you silly dog.”
That being said, it still rubbed Dollar’s real dog head with its golden body.
Dollar also pawed at the golden ball in front of
Gold Nugget said, “Okay, I have something to talk to the fiend about. I won’t play with you anymore. Go lick Selina later.”
The golden Slime attached itself to Dollar’s body.
Sensing the familiar sense of power and vitality return, Dollar barked excitedly.
Gold Nugget couldn’t be bothered with it and said to Little Snail, “Little Snail, tell Luke to come back. There’s something important I need to explain in person.”
Little Snail: “Okay, Gold Nugget.”
For the next few minutes, Gold Nugget paced around the room in a daze.
When Luke and Selina returned, they entered the workshop and closed the door.
Luke raised an eyebrow and asked, “What big situation? Claire?”
Gold Nugget was obsessed with watching dramas, and shopping and scolding people online every day. For it to call something big but not urgent, it could only have to do with Claire.
After all, Gold Nugget No. 2 was always with Claire to protect Luke’s precious sister.
This time, Gold Nugget hesitated, which was
vas
rare.
It turned its head slightly and looked at Selina guiltily. Selina immediately understood its meaning and grabbed its ears. “Why are you keeping it a secret from me?” Gold Nugget was aggrieved. “But this is Claire’s private matter…” Selina snorted and let go of the dog’s ears. “I’m going to train. Call me when you’re done.”
Luke pressed down on Selina’s shoulder and said, “No need. Gold Nugget can tell both of
us.”
A long time ago, he had indeed told Gold Nugget not to casually reveal Claire’s secrets, including to himself.
But asking Selina to leave now was clearly too much.
Although it was a little unfair to Gold Nugget, Luke still decided to let the dog head take the blame.
Selina was very magnanimous and wouldn’t hold it against the dog head for long.
It just needed to lick its wounds for two days and everything would return to normal. He could compensate it later.
Gold Nugget didn’t dwell on it.
Since the fiend had agreed, there were no more concerns.
“I think Claire might be in love,” Gold Nugget said decisively.
Selina was lost for words and a vein immediately throbbed on Luke’s temple.
A moment later, Selina coughed and said, “Hm, should I leave?”
Luke glanced at her and tapped her head. “If you really wanted to leave, you wouldn’t have asked.”
irning back to look at the dog, he said, “That definitely isn’t the point. Tell me, what’s the big deal?”
It wasn’t unusual for a 19-year-old college student to fall in love. Then, the problem was whether or not the love interest was suitable.
Looking at Gold Nugget’s face, Selina mumbled inwardly, A tramp? An artist? Or some playboy?
Claire had been a star for over a year and she had old man Gold Nugget protecting her; ordinary guys couldn’t fool her at all.
Gold Nugget was a little uneasy. It wriggled a few times before its resolve finally hardened. “Claire found a… girlfriend.”
Selina was lost for words and Luke was dumbstruck.
After a weird silence, Luke covered his face with his hand.
Several seconds later, he took a deep breath and lowered his hand. “Who is it?”
It was impossible for Gold Nugget to not know since he was in symbiosis with Claire.
The dog head would pay attention to important things like these in life, or it wouldn’t have called Luke back in a hurry.
Gold Nugget said, “Carly Green. She’s also 19 and an employee at the record company. Claire ran into her at work…”
Luke suddenly raised his hand to stop Gold Nugget. “Little Snail, show me the girl’s file.” Little Snail immediately projected a virtual image of the girl, along with all kinds of information and data.
Gold Nugget immediately nodded. “That’s
her.”
Luke’s thoughts whirled. For a moment, he didn’t know what to say. He could only gesture for the dog to continue.
Support for same-sex relationships had been increasing in recent years.
From what Luke saw in the news, it would only take three to five years at most for a bunch of politicians to use this issue to win votes from this group.
Thus, it wasn’t strange for Claire to fall into this sort of relationship.
