Silent Sister fell to the ground, but she still got up to stop Wen Nan from throwing away the puppies.
Mr. Chen treated these two puppies like his kids. If she threw them away, Mr. Chen would definitely be angry.
She tried to explain that using sign language, but Wen Nan refused to look at her. She felt really helpless.
The two of them were making a racket downstairs. Tang Beibei came downstairs and saw Wen Nan holding the two little golden retrievers in a trash can. Her face darkened and she ran over quickly.
“Dr. Wen, why did you put these two little fellas in a trash can?”
“Pm allergic to these things. You can’t keep them. I’m going to send them away.” Wen Nan explained aggrievedly.
Tang Beibei took the trash can from Wen Nan and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that the two little fellas were fine.
She then said, “I’ve already bought a kennel. The two little fellas will live there and will only move around on the balcony. They won’t disturb you, Dr. Wen.” Wen Nan was puzzled. “These are your dogs?”
“Yes. I adopted them.”
Wen Nan frowned in disgust. Tang Beibei was no better than a stray herself and she adopted strays from the street and brought them home? Didn’t she find them dirty?
“Stray dogs carry a lot of germs. They could also be sick and unhealthy. Moreover, they bark day and night and create noise pollution.”
Wen Nan snatched the trash can from Tang Beibei as she spoke. She still wanted to throw the puppies away.
Tang Beibei stopped her again. “Dr. Wen, the two little fellas are very obedient. Please don’t throw them away, or they will become stray dogs again.”
Wen Nan sneered in her heart. They were strays to begin with. This was not her fault.
“Beibei, you’re just too soft-hearted. It’s not that easy to keep dogs. I’d advise you not to waste your time and effort on them instead of your studies.”
Wen Nan’s words sounded like they were for Tang Beibei’s good but Tang Beibei did not agree.
“They won’t affect my studies. Please give me the two little fellas.”
“I’ve already said that I’m allergic. You can’t keep them. Beibei, you can’t be so selfish.”
Wen Nan’s tone was angry because she felt that despite her explanation, Tang Beibei still wanted to make things difficult for her.
Tang Beibei frowned as she looked at the two little fellas howling in the trash can as if they were asking for help.
Tang Beibei clenched her fists and said, “Dr. Wen, I’m not being selfish. It’s just that they’re very pitiful. Since I’ve adopted them, 1 have to be responsible for them. I can’t just throw them away.”
“Then what are you going to do?”
Wen Nan threw the trash can on the floor. Seeing that the two puppies were about to crawl out of the trash can, Wen Nan stepped on the edge of the trash can and pressed the puppies’ heads with the sole of her foot.
Tang Beibei frowned when she saw her actions.
“Dr. Wen, you can’t treat them like this. If you don’t like them, you can move out.”
Wen Nan looked at her in surprise and chuckled. “You actually want to kick me out because of these two animals? 1 was invited here by Mr. Chen, so you have no right to chase me away.”
Tang Beibei tried to pick up the puppies as she said, “I’m the mistress of this villa. Why don’t I have the right? Since you know that you’re a guest, you should know that you must look at the dog owner when you hit the dog. If you disrespect my dogs, you’re disrespecting me.”
“I can’t keep a guest who doesn’t respect the host!”
Wen Nan let out a nervous laugh. Tang Beibei had indeed become bolder.
“Tang Beibei, you say I disrespect you because of these two animals. But I’ve already told you that I’m allergic to these things. Since I’m the guest, you’re the one who is disrespecting me, right?”
Tang Beibei said, “Here’s a suggestion. You can rent a place outside. 1 also don’t want you to have an allergic reaction, Dr. Wen. We’ll pay your rent.”
Wen Nan gritted her teeth. She thought that Tang Beibei was protecting the puppies but it seemed that her real goal was to kick her out of the villa!
“Tang Beibei, you’re biting the hand that feeds you. I treated your husband, but you are chasing me away?”
Tang Beibei’s head hurt. She suddenly felt that it was very difficult to communicate with Wen Nan.
Wen Nan said that she was allergic to animals, so she offered to pay her rent for her to stay outside. But she understood it as she was chasing her away.
“Dr. Wen, I’m very grateful that you treated my husband. I’m not chasing you away, but I’m doing this for your own good. Jiang Jingchen and 1 have already discussed that we’ll keep these two little fellas. If you insist on staying here, 1 will try my best to keep them away from you. Does that work?”
“No, dogs shed. Their fur will irritate my respiratory tract and may even cause me to itch all over my body.” Wen Nan coughed a few times as if she was already having an allergic reaction.
“But I don’t want to throw the two little fellas away.”
Tang Beibei felt a little annoyed that the discussion was fruitless, but she still wanted to find a solution and hoped that Wen Nan would cooperate.
“What’s happening here?” Jiang Jingchen came downstairs at this moment and asked Tang Beibei.
Before Tang Beibei could speak, Wen Nan coughed a few times and said uncomfortably, “Mr. Chen, you know that I’m allergic to pets. I’m discussing with Beibei how to deal with these puppies but 1 didn’t expect Beibei to actually ask me to move out. Sigh, cough, cough…”
Tang Beibei frowned. Although what she said was true, it was unfair for Wen Nan to push all the blame on her.
She explained, “I don’t agree with Dr. Wen’s suggestion to throw away Xiaoan and Xiaokang. I thought that if she’s allergic, she could rent a place outside that’s even better than her accommodation here.”
Jiang Jingchen looked down at the two puppies in the trash can. His handsome eyebrows rose, and he looked at Wen Nan unkindly. He didn’t say a word but bent down to pick up the two little fellas.
Wen Nan was so shocked that she took a few steps back. “Mr. Chen, there are all kinds of germs on dogs. Aren’t you a germaphobe?”
“These two are my dogs,” Jiang Jingchen said. “Wen Nan, go rent a place outside. I’ll pay your rent.”
Wen Nan looked at him in shock. “Mr. Chen, I’m here to treat you. You’re asking me to rent a place outside?”
They weren’t just doctor and patient. They were also partners. Was Jiang Jingchen suggesting that he wasn’t going to fulfill his promise to help her get shares of Wen Corporation?
If she got shares of the Wen Corporation, it would be a great help to him in his fight against the Jiang family.
Jiang Jingchen didn’t answer her question directly. “If you don’t move out, you might suffer an allergic reaction so severe that it costs your life. That wouldn’t be worth it.”
“These two puppies are now part of our family. There’s no reason for the master to move out or let a guest like you stay here and take the risk.”
Wen Nan’s eyes turned red with anger when she heard this. His words implied that she wasn’t as important to him as the two dogs.
“Mr. Chen, what you said saddens me. I hope you will reconsider.”
Jiang Jingchen understood her hint. She was telling him that she was still valuable to him, so he shouldn’t burn bridges.
His legs were no longer a secret to his wife. He and his wife had gone out several times without the wheelchair. Soon, more people would know that he was not a cripple.
Therefore, the secret in the past was no longer a secret.
In other words, Wen Nan’s value had diminished.
“There’s no need to reconsider. Please move out.”
Wen Nan was furious. She wanted to remind Jiang Jingchen, but Jiang Jingchen didn’t have the patience.
“Dr. Wen, before you leave, you should apologize to our puppies.”
“You threw them into a trash can just now without their permission. Put yourself in their shoes. How would you feel if you were thrown into a trash can and subsequently into a landfill?”
Wen Nan heard the man’s nonchalant voice but her heart trembled with fear.
He was hinting that if she didn’t apologize, she would be accidentally thrown into a landfill..
