The attendant smiled and said, Youve come to the right place. Our spirit pets are all intelligent, beautiful, and loyal. Let me fetch you the best one.

After speaking, she took down a cage placed on a high platform near the store entrance and placed it in front of Gu Qingluan. Please have a look at this Azure-eyed Snow Spirit Cat. What do you think?

Meow- The spirit cat sat in the delicate cage, raising its front paws and softly meowing at Gu Qingluan.

Its fur was as white as snow, fluffy and soft.

Its ears were pointed, with a hint of pink showing.

Its emerald-like azure eyes were clear and innocent, with a touch of cleverness.

It looked like the kind of spirit pet that young girls and children would adore!

..

Indeed, it was quite beautiful.

However, it still fell short compared to Xiaobai.

Moreover, seeing the snow spirit cat might remind Xiaonan of Xiaobai, since they were both white.

Do you have anything else? Gu Qingluan asked.

Dont you like the snow spirit cat? The attendant put the cage back and took out another iron cage. What about this one?

Inside was a small-sized spirit dog, equally adorable.

Gu Qingluan remained unsatisfied.

After being rejected several times, the attendants smiling face stiffened slightly. May I ask what kind of spirit pet you prefer, Miss?

Gu Qingluan thought to herself that it wasnt about what she liked, but what Xiaonan would like.

Suddenly, her foot was gently b.u.mped.

Gu Qingluan looked down and met a pair of damp eyes.

Oh, how did this little thing run out! The attendant exclaimed in surprise and quickly bent down to catch the small black dog.

The agile little black dog dodged and hid behind Gu Qingluan.

Little thing, stop running around! The attendant threatened in a low voice, circling around Gu Qingluan to continue catching it.

The little black dog ran in front of Gu Qingluan, tilting its head up, its black eyes fixedly staring at her.

It was entirely black, with bright black eyes, except for a small patch of white on its body.

For some reason, Gu Qingluan saw a pleading expression in its eyes.

Do you want to follow me?

Woof woof! The little black dog barked twice as if answering her question.

Miss, this dog isnt a spirit pet. Im really sorry for the disturbance, 111 get rid of it right away, the attendant apologized and suddenly pounced toward the little black dog.

The agile little black dog jumped aside.

Unexpectedly, the attendant used a diversionary tactic and grabbed it from another direction.

The little black dog let out a pitiful cry, struggling, and revealing a small tuft of white fur on its forehead.

Shut up! Dont you dare bark! Otherwise, you may find yourself simmering in a pot of canine broth tonight! The attendant scolded in a low voice, carrying the little black dog and intending to walk towards the inner room.

Hold on! Gu Qingluan called her.

The attendant turned around, revealing a standard smile. Is there something you need, Miss?

How much for this little black dog? Ill take it.

The attendant was surprised. Are you sure, Miss? This is just an ordinary dog, not a spirit beast.

Its alright, its just a pet. Whether its a spirit beast or not doesnt matter, Gu Qingluan smiled.

But the price of a spirit beast was much higher than that of an ordinary pet.

Seeing the attendants thoughts, Gu Qingluan said, Ill take that spirit dog as well. Let them keep each other company.

The attendant immediately showed a happy expression. Alright, the spirit dog is priced at 2,200 taels of silver, and this dog lets consider it a bonus.

After all, it was an excess item from the supplier, and they didnt want to bother giving it back, so they gave it to the shop.

Woof woof woof! The little black dog bared its teeth at the attendant.

Stupid humans, how dare they treat me as a bonus!

Gu Qingluan smiled as she looked at it.

The little black dog inexplicably s.h.i.+vered and looked up at Gu Qingluan.

Gazing into its lively eyes, the corners of Gu Qingluans mouth curved even deeper.

The little black dog suddenly felt like it had walked into the lions den..
