Jiang Qianxue held her chin with one hand and held the mouse with the other. She was bored and browsed the web. The Persian cat, Snowball, was quietly napping on her lap.
She had been sitting in front of the computer for an hour and looked through the food and tourism section of Wang Haige several times. She did not find any new places worth visiting. This was common. After all, she had high requirements for the location of her live broadcast. She did not want to find a random place to make up the number. Binhai City was not a big city, so new and interesting shops would not pop up like mushrooms after a spring rain.
There was a note under the keyboard. There were a few lines of words written on the note. They were the suggestions provided by enthusiastic netizens. Some of the lines were crossed out with a marker, which meant that she had gone to check out the spots and did not meet her live broadcast standards. The netizens were impatient and strongly requested her to broadcast anything, even if it was a live broadcast of her cleaning Snowball's poop.
She let go of the mouse and slowly moved her finger down on the note. She stopped at a shop called "Back to the Old Days." This shop was also provided by the netizens. At first, she could not guess what this shop was selling. After being reminded by the netizens, she realized that it specialized in selling secondhand goods. However, the secondhand goods in this shop were very rare, and some were even out of print, so the prices were very high.
Logically speaking, this shop was the best choice left. Snowy knew this, but she still could not bring herself to buy secondhand goods. She had done live broadcasts in secondhand bookstores before, but secondhand books and secondhand goods were different.
However, staying at home was also very boring. Her mother always nagged her, and calluses appeared in her ears. Therefore, Snowy fought with laziness for a long time and decided to take a look.
"Snowball, stay at home. I need to go out." She carried Snowball from her lap to the bed, clenched her fists, and hammered her numb legs. Snowball had recently gained weight very quickly. It was not the same as when she first bought it. It now had the demeanor of a big adult cat.
"Meow." Snowball walked towards her, as if it wanted to go out with her.
"Snowball, stay at home. Your fur gets dirty too easily, and the pet shop hasn't opened recently, so I can't give you a bath. Just bear with it for now." Snowy intimately touched Snowball's forehead with her forehead.
She put on a thick down jacket, a scarf, gloves, and a woolen hat to cover herself up. Then, she grabbed her essential phone and wallet and left the bedroom.
Snowy knew that her father was not at home, so she walked through the living room and walked past her mother, who was on the phone.
"It's such a cold day, where are you going?" Mother put down the phone and asked.
"I'm just strolling around. It's so boring staying at home all the time!" Snowy waved at her mother. "Mom, you should go out and have a walk too. Go dance with other mothers or something. Don't always stay at home."
"You're educating me?" His mother was amused. "Do you think I'm as wild as you? Besides, it's easy to catch a cold if you go out on such a cold day! Let me tell you, if you catch a cold, don't cry out in pain! "
"Don't worry, I won't catch a cold. Look at how thick I'm wearing!" Snowy patted her down jacket. "I'm leaving, bye!"
Without waiting for her mother to say anything, she opened the door and ran out.
"What a … wild girl!" His mother was so angry that she slammed the table and picked up the phone again. "Hey, where were we?"
Snowy hummed a nameless tune that she created and skipped all the way to the entrance of the villa area.
This high-end villa area covered a vast area, but it was exceptionally quiet. The artificial lake in the center of the community was full of withered yellow leaves, which moved up and down like waves of wheat when the wind blew.
In the past, when Snowy walked in the community, she would occasionally meet a few old people who came out for a walk. Since the beginning of winter, they all hid in their houses. Even if they went out, they would take luxury cars instead of walking. There were not many young people in the community, and there were even fewer people who were the same age as Snowy. Most of them were middle-aged people like her father. As for the legendary arrogant and despotic rich second generation … maybe they existed, but she had never seen one.
The faint sadness of spring and autumn only shrouded Snowy's heart for a short while before it was dispelled by her natural optimism and cheerfulness. She knew that as long as she left the villa area and entered the real world, she would no longer be lonely.
In addition, she did not hate winter, because winter meant that her birthday was coming, and she could receive a lot of birthday gifts. Her parents would not talk about her for a few days before and after her birthday, and she could enjoy a few days of relaxation and comfort. If it snowed, it would be even better. She could build a few rows of snowmen in front of her house, like special guards, which had always been her routine in winter.
Beep!
While she was thinking, she heard the crisp sound of a car horn behind her. Looking back, she saw a stretch Mercedes-Benz slowly coming from behind. Since there was no one around, she unconsciously walked in the middle of the road and blocked the way of the Mercedes-Benz.
Snowy took a few steps to the side and got out of the way. She stared curiously at the back window of the Mercedes-Benz, wondering which neighbor was sitting inside. She was unfamiliar with the license plate number of the car, and she did not remember seeing it before in the villa area. Unfortunately, the car window was very private. No matter how wide she opened her eyes, she could not see through the window into the car.
She got out of the way, but the Mercedes-Benz did not drive past, but slowly stopped beside her.
The window rolled down. Because it was dark inside the car, she did not see who was sitting inside. She heard a howl, and a dog's head popped out of the window, sticking out its tongue and winking at her.
"Hey, isn't this Good-For-Nothing?" Snowy said in surprise.
She often met Uncle Jin walking his dog in the community, so she was very familiar with this Husky named "Good-For-Nothing." There was only one Husky in the community, so she could not have mistaken it for Good-For-Nothing. Snowball and Good-For-Nothing were very bad, and they would fight whenever they saw each other. However, it was Snowball who one-sidedly chased after Good-For-Nothing … Although Good-For-Nothing was big, it was actually very weak!
Then, she burst into laughter and pointed at Good-for-Nothing. "Good-for-Nothing, what the hell is that thing on your neck?"
She saw a strange thing around Good-For-Nothing's neck, which looked like a dog's head coming out of a sunflower! The Husky's appearance was originally very stupid, and after wearing this thing, it looked even more like two plus two, two to the power of two, which was equal to four!
Good-for-Nothing poked its head out of the window and looked around. It didn't see the hateful Persian cat, and even the smell of the cat was very faint. Good-for-Nothing was happy, but Snowy's words poked its sore spot. It couldn't help but whimper and look at her with a lifeless and sad look.
Snowy laughed, and the more she looked at it, the more interesting it was. She did not care about Good-For-Nothing's feelings at all.
After laughing for a while, she thought that since there was Good-For-Nothing in the car, Uncle Jin must also be there.
"Is that Uncle Jin inside?" She asked the dim interior of the car.
A big hand reached out and pushed Good-For-Nothing's head to the side, making room. Jin Er's head also squeezed out of the window, and he greeted her, "Snowy, I thought you forgot about Uncle Jin!"
The human and the dog's heads looked at her side by side, and the scene was inexplicably funny.
"Good morning, Uncle Jin." She greeted him politely, but then a question mark popped up in her mind.
"Uncle Jin, are you going to do something serious today?" She asked curiously.
Jin Er was stunned, "Why do you ask? Besides, isn't what I usually do serious? "
"Because you didn't drive. This is the first time I saw you go out in a car." Snowy smiled, and did not answer his second question, because there was no need to answer it. Her father, Jiang Tianda, always said that Jin Er did not do serious work, and that his company would be doomed if it went on like this. However, Uncle Jin was obviously not worried about this problem.
"You are talking about this …" Jin Er sighed, "It's a long story, so I'll make it short. The reason is very simple. A few days ago, I didn't do anything for a long time, and my driving license points were deducted!"
