Zhao Qi and Shi Shi chattered on and on, forgetting what they were supposed to do. They only remembered it after Zhang Zian reminded them.
Zhang Zian asked again, "Also, today is a working day, right? You guys are not like me, so why did you come to the pet shop instead of going to work? "
"I am not with them. I just hitched a ride with them," Zhao Qi clarified. Zhao Qi clarified, "I used my annual leave. I'm planning to use it together with the Spring Festival holiday to travel abroad."
"A trip abroad? Did you pay off your credit card?" Zhang Zian asked suspiciously.
Zhao Qi was a typical moonshine girl. Her hand would grow back the next month, and she swore that she would never buy anything again. However, whenever she saw discounted branded shoes, clothes, and bags, she would lose control of her hand. She would always show her credit card bills on her WeChat Moments, lamenting that she would have to eat dirt for the next month.
Zhao Qi blushed. "I am accompanying my parents on a trip abroad."
Oh, that means her parents paid for it. No wonder …
But she still didn't explain why she came to the pet shop.
Zhao Qi raised the air box in her hand and said, "If it was only for two or three days, it would be fine. But I will be away for about ten days, and no one will take care of my Lan Lan. I thought about it and decided to ask Manager Zhang to take care of it for me."
Zhang Zian pulled a long face. "I don't provide pet boarding services here! I suggest you find someone else. "
Many pet shops specifically launched pet boarding services, targeting young people who went abroad for a short period of time. They charged by the day or the month, and there were even some that charged by the year. However, Zhang Zian's shop was understaffed, so he didn't plan to make money from this.
Zhao Qi was completely different from her self-righteous attitude when she talked back to her best friend. She put her palms together and begged, "I don't have a choice. None of my friends are reliable, and the few pet shops I've found are all full. They said that pet boarding during the Spring Festival needs to be booked one or two months in advance. Now there are no seats left …"
Shi Shi interrupted, "That's why I said I can help you take care of Lan Lan for a few days!"
Zhao Qi rolled her eyes at her. "You're the most unreliable!"
In recent years, more and more people took advantage of the seven-day long holidays such as the Spring Festival and National Day to travel abroad. Many of them had pets. It was possible to bring their pets abroad, but it was very troublesome to do so. Not everyone was willing to go through the trouble of going through the pet consignment procedures. Therefore, they preferred to find a pet shop to leave their pets for a few days. It was convenient, easy, and didn't cost much money.
Zhao Qi had never had a pet before. This was the first Spring Festival she had spent with Lan Lan. She didn't know that pet boarding services were so popular during the Spring Festival, so she was caught unprepared. Seeing that the departure date was approaching, she didn't want to give up this opportunity to accompany her parents on a trip abroad, and she didn't even have to pay for it. However, she couldn't let Lan Lan stay at home alone for ten days, right?
She had visited a few larger pet shops, but all of them were fully booked. She was worried about a small shop, so she had to turn to Zhang Zian.
Zhang Zian didn't want to do pet boarding services. In addition to the lack of manpower, the other reason was that this service was prone to disputes. Once a pet got sick or even died, disputes would often arise.
He had heard of some pet shops that offered this service. As a result, a dog suddenly got sick during the boarding period, and was sent to a pet hospital for treatment, but it still died. When the owner of the dog was notified and rushed over, he insisted that the pet shop owner didn't take good care of the dog. In the end, not only did the pet shop owner not pay for the treatment, but the pet shop owner also had to refund 20% of the boarding fee and compensate the owner with a dog of the same type. The owner of the dog was also not satisfied. Although they got a new dog, it was, after all, not the same dog as the original one.
Zhao Qi kept begging Zhang Zian. In the end, Zhang Zian had no choice but to draw up a foster care agreement for the sake of her being the pet shop's first customer. He asked her to sign it, and then he took Lan Lan in for ten days.
After dealing with Zhao Qi, he asked Shi Shi and Liu Sanlang what they were doing. If they bought an imported car to show off, then he wouldn't be able to keep them company.
Shi Shi was holding the Labrador, and Liu Sanlang explained, "No, I plan to go back to my hometown for two or three days before the New Year, but it's not convenient to take a dog with me. Xiao La happened to have a cold, so I plan to take it to the pet clinic in the north to see a doctor and stay in the hospital for a few days.
"You killed two birds with one stone..."
Zhang Zian noticed that the Labrador was wearing a small red sweater, which looked a little funny.
As he was talking, the Labrador coughed twice as if it was choking on water.
"Ah, right, Store Manager Zhang, since you took Qi Qi's cat, why don't you take Xiao La as well? Xiao La bought it from you, right? It's safer to leave it in your care. Places like pet clinics... I always think it's dirty. If Xiao La stays there alone, it may be bullied and infected by other dogs. If it meets a domineering CEO-type Poodle, it may be raped... "Shi Shi heard their conversation, put down the phone, and said seriously.
"Hey! Can't you pay attention to your image? In public, a girl always talks about rape. I'm embarrassed to say I know you... "Zhao Qi pinched Shi Shi's face angrily.
"Sob, sob ~ It hurts! Qi Qi, my makeup is going to be ruined! "Shi Shi waved her hands and cried.
Zhao Qi pinched Shi Shi's face hard and explained to Zhang Zian, "You may not have read the novels about domineering CEOs. At the beginning of this kind of novel, the heroine is often raped by the domineering CEO. This girl is already sick. When she sees a Poodle on the road, her eyes will light up, and she will always say 'Mr. Tai' something. Just pretend you didn't hear it!"
Zhang Zian was speechless as he watched the interaction between the two of them. His worldview had been refreshed!
He looked at Liu Sanlang worriedly, not understanding why this guy liked Shi Shi. This task was definitely more difficult than finding the nameless book from the mountain of books in Binhai City Library...
Shi Shi's face was pinched red, and her tears were about to come out. She was not as tall as Zhao Qi, and her arms were not as long as Zhao Qi's. She wanted to push Zhao Qi away, but she couldn't. She could only beg for mercy, "Qi Qi! Qi Qi! I only said 'rape' once, and you said it three times! "
Zhao Qi suddenly realized that she had said something wrong. She couldn't help but smile awkwardly and defend herself, "I was just repeating what you said. It doesn't count!"
When Shi Shi finally got rid of Zhao Qi's claws, she quickly ran behind Liu Sanlang to hide, rubbing her face with tears in her eyes.
"Unfortunately, I can't accept this Labrador," Zhang Zian coughed and refused.
