The Villainous Celebrity Wife of the CEO - Chapter 159.2
The snow in many places was dense, thick and sticky. You could easily shape it into a snowball, then roll the snow, and finally transform it into a huge thing.
But the snow in Xinjiang was different. It was light and crisp, like a handful of artwork carved out of ice. It was gently stacked there as if weightless.
Su Jishi exhaled heavily, and the hot steam quickly condensed into a small ice cream in the 40 degree below zero temperature. With the headlights shining, it was bright crystal.
Su Jisi looked back and saw concerned faces in the front windshield of the bus, looking at her worriedly.
Su Jishi gave them an OK gesture.
When she turned around, she was startled —— two large wolfhounds approached her at some point and were standing there, staring at her with two pairs of clear canine eyes.
“Their eyes…”
She murmured.
When she was standing in the bus and looking down, this pack of wild dogs appeared dirty, hairy, and with their tails drooping between the legs…from their appearance alone, they couldn’t be compared with pet dogs in the city.
But when she stepped out of the bus and looked at them up close, she discovered that the pack of wild dogs had awesome ‘heterophthalmia’! One eye was as blue as the sky, and the other was as black as dirt.
Heteropthalmia in dogs was a rare genetic phenomenon, commonly found in huskies, border collies and other breeds of dogs. But pupils were not a dominant genetic trait, and were rare and was a matter of chance rather than choice.
But now, a whole pack of wild dogs all possessed such pupils! Their two eyes were filled with the quiet night and the clear morning colors at the same time. Under the watch of such pairs of eyes, the last bit of tension in Su Jishi’s heart immediately dissipated.
She took a step, and the soles of her shoes flattened the snow and made a crunching sound.
A few wolfhounds ‘howled’ vigilantly, but Su Jishi did not show a bit of timidity, and instead continued with a slow but firm pace. Step by step, she made her way towards the injured wild dog.
Su Jishi did not know how amazing this scene was in the eyes of the others on the bus ——
The wolfhounds that had been blocking the front of the bus suddenly parted like a tidal wave to either side, revealing a trail. They stood quietly in the snow, watching the seemingly skinny and weak human girl, stepping into their guard range.
Step after step, meter after meter, even though the snow slowed down Su Jishi’s pace, she eventually reached the injured wolfhound.
When Su Jishi got closer, she realized that the wounded wolfhound was very old.
Its fur, like that of other wild dogs, was a mixture of yellow and black, but the fur on its face gradually turned white, and the area around its mouth and eyes was completely white. When people get old, their beard and hair would turn white, and so would animals. Su Jishi estimated that the wild dog was at least ten years old. It wasn’t easy to live to ten years old in such a harsh wild environment.
At first, Su Jishi thought that this pack of wild dogs would protect this wounded dog because this wounded dog was their ‘leader’, but after getting closer she realized that this wounded wild dog was actually female!
The bitch’s eyes were also bright and clear with two-color different eyes. According to its age, it was likely to be the mother of this pack of wild dogs! They used their bodies to shelter it from the snow and wind, even against human-made industrial giants, just to protect its life.
…Nature’s laws of survival were sometimes cruel which could drive the human heart to shake with fright, but also sometimes gentle, it could make people cry.
Su Jishi felt like something soft hit her heart.
Hearing the sound of her approach, the injured bitch raised its head and looked at her.
The surrounding wild dogs instantly tensed up, making low threatening guttural growls. Some of them even bared their mouthful of canine teeth!
Surrounded by so many humongous dogs, accompanied by their ‘stereo-like projected’ intimidation, another person would have already been scared to death. But Su Jishi wasn’t at all disturbed by the outside world. She still calmly looked at the wounded wild dog and repeated over and over again —— “I’m here to help you”.
Dogs had no way of understanding human language, but they could read humans.
This human girl seemed to carry a magical power in her , enough to make the mountains, to make the natural chasms, to make the land and every living creature in the land submit to her feet.
The cold wind blew away her hair, but it could not extinguish the fire in her eyes.
The woman put down her pots of water, took off her gloves, and stretched her hand out to the injured wild dog.
The -40 degrees temperature instantly whisked away the temperature of her palm, and it turned red visible to the naked eye from her fingertips. In just half a minute, her right hand had cooled into a mass of ice.
But her palm remained obstinately stretched out in mid-air, without trembling.
“You can trust me,” she said quietly, “I’m here to help you.”
She looked at bitch, and it looked at her.
Then after an unknown amount of time in that posture, the bitch slowly dropped its neck! It sniffed her with its moist nose, then rested its burning hot chin in Su Jishi’s palm!!!
—— In that moment, it chose to trust the strange human girl.
Because there was a mini camera fixed above Su Jishi’s head, this scene naturally was recorded clearly and synced to the recording tablet in the hands of the Chief Director.
The Chief Director couldn’t contain his ‘gasp’ and leaned on the shoulders of the Chief Producer.The Chief Producer, whose jumpy heart finally settled down as well, was moved to tears, patted the arm of the Director beside him, and exclaimed excitedly, “This section must never be cut!! You must not cut it!! Keep it all for me! Give me the most sensational music! When the episode is aired, I want to send it to Discovery Channel’s headquarters to participate in the ‘Ten Most Beautiful Moments of Man and Nature’ annual selection!”
The Chief Director scolded him furiously, “…You’re so vulgar! All you can think about is ratings!”
Chief Producer: “No! All I can think about are the bonuses! Do you know how much attention the station is paying to this show? Before accompanying you, I was worried that this trip to Koktokay would not be able to sustain the ratings, but now, I’ve already thought about how to spend my year-end bonus this year!”
Chief Director: “… It’s only January and we’ve just received last year’s year-end bonus.”
Chief Producer: “Apart from annual leaves, aren’t bonuses within social animals’ expectations? There’s nothing wrong with looking forward to the end of the year at the beginning of the year!”
