Chapter 228: Chapter 229 Rescuing the Drowning Puppy

Mo Ran knew he was a person without compassion and didn’t blame him for it.

"It’s not dead yet, I just heard it barking. Please think of a way to save it quickly, or it really will die!"

She just couldn’t stand by and watch a little puppy drown.

Gu Yixuan gave her a deep look and said, "There’s no boat now, how do you propose we save it?"

"Find something to pull it up with! Or, never mind, I’ll go save it; the water isn’t that deep." Mo Ran went from talking to taking action, but as she took a step forward, the man forcefully pulled her back.

"Are you crazy! The sea is both cold and icy. If you won’t consider your own safety, at least think of the child!" Gu Yixuan stared at her with an ashen face.

"Then what do you suggest we do?!"

"Fine, I’ll go and save it." What a hassle. He, the distinguished President of the Gu Family, was about to enter the icy cold water on a winter day to save a dying puppy.

If it weren’t for the fact that Mo Ran was about to cry in desperation, he wouldn’t have wanted to go at all.

Heading toward the sea, Gu Yixuan hurried towards the puppy. Behind him, Mo Ran was still shouting, "Hurry, otherwise it’ll drown!"

The seawater was bone-chilling cold, and Gu Yixuan cursed under his breath as he swam faster towards the puppy.

Seeing that he had grabbed the puppy, Mo Ran’s heart, which had been in her throat, finally settled down.

As soon as Gu Yixuan got back to shore, she hurried over to him. Seeing the puppy’s condition, her heart was pierced with pain.

The puppy was tiny, only the size of two hands. But it had just three legs; the right front limb was gone, and the wound hadn’t completely healed, showing faint traces of blood.

Mo Ran carefully took it and frowned, "Who could be so cruel as to amputate someone’s leg."

Gu Yixuan shook the water from his hair and said indifferently, "This dog was obviously abandoned. Someone tried to throw it into the sea, and here you are saving it again."

In his view, since it had a leg amputated and was abandoned by its owner, without any hope for survival, it was better off dead.

Mo Ran gave him a displeased glare, then noticing he was drenched, she quickly said, "Go take a hot shower quickly, be careful not to catch a cold."

She also had to quickly take the puppy back before it froze to death.

Back in the villa, Gu Yixuan went to shower while Mo Ran filled a basin with warm water to bathe the puppy. After washing it, she dried its fur, then wrapped it in a blanket and placed it beside the fireplace.

She hoped it would survive the night; otherwise, it faced nothing but death.
