I don't know if it was because he was injured and couldn't move, or because he felt his kindness, Xue Zimu managed to get in touch with the kitten's dirty fur. , and stretched out the other hand.
This time the kitten still did not resist. So Xue Zimu picked it up smoothly, and the little thing no wider than a palm nestled in his arms, looking extraordinarily docile.
But Xue Zimu frowned. The kitten was allowed to be manipulated by him like this, the greater possibility was not out of trust, but because it was too badly injured. Thinking that the warm body temperature that was in contact with him might gradually turn cold in the near future, Xue Zimu immediately stood up, glanced at the car that couldn't start, and took out his mobile phone.
Xue Lin didn't see clearly what he was doing before, until he stood up and found that Xue Zimu was wearing a high-end suit to listen to the symphony, and actually hugged a terribly dirty cat in her arms. She immediately showed disgust, and after a while, she remembered something, and screamed: "Don't even think about bringing that thing into the car, you may not even be able to afford the cleaning fee if the car is dirty!"
It has to be said that human nature is always difficult to change. Obviously, Yao Yue's previous advice to Xue Lin did not have much effect, and she still could not maintain even a superficial peace with Xue Zimu.
Xue Zimu turned a deaf ear to Xue Lin's voice, silently called a car with her mobile phone, and prepared to send the kitten to the hospital. Because even if Xue Lin was about to miss the concert, she was so hypocritical that she didn't want to take a taxi, and had to get someone to drive over from Xue's house, so Xue Zimu's taxi came much faster than Xue's car.
Xue Lin stared at Xue Zimu in a daze as she carried the cat into the taxi and left, kicking the stone angrily in the exhaust fumes.
The most prosperous business district in Beijing is full of high-rise buildings, even if it is not rush hour, there is still a lot of traffic. Qi Yan stood on the top floor of one of the high-rise buildings, looking through the glass at the cars and people coming and going like ants downstairs, frowning slightly.
Another person in the office looked at him and couldn't help saying: "Okay, Ah Yan, isn't it a big deal to postpone the meeting until tomorrow? It's rare that I can leave work early today, how about going to relax and have some fun?"
The speaker was Xu Chi. Today, Qi Yan was going to discuss a cooperation with the MS company in country L, but the representative sent by the other party was very unreliable. Not only did he buy the air ticket at the agreed meeting time, but he also fell asleep and missed the plane. Qi Yan's work plan had to be disrupted.
Qi Yan hated this kind of partner who lacked responsibility the most, and his face remained gloomy after receiving the news. Xu Chi knew that Fa Xiao was a bit obsessive-compulsive in this regard, so he could only persuade him to look away. After all, even though I'm used to it, it's still hard for people to feel relaxed when facing Qi Yan's cold face. And Qi Yan has always been like a well-set precise machine, obsessed with work and lack of entertainment, Xu Chi has always felt that the stretched string should be loosened.
However, Qi Yan was obviously not willing to accept his proposal, and he said blankly, "What's the fun?"
This is actually a rhetorical question that doesn't need an answer, but Xu Chi still thought about the answer, and before he could figure it out, he received a message on his phone. He took it out and looked at it. It was Xu Lan who asked him to pick him up at the concert hall later.
Just as Xu Chi was about to reply, he suddenly thought of something. He paused and said to Qi Yan, "Why don't you go to the concert that Xu Lan talked about the day before yesterday? That orchestra is quite famous." It seemed that he felt that his convincing was not enough, so Xu Chi added another sentence : "It's okay now anyway."
"Forget it," Qi Yan didn't intend to change his mind, "I'll go home."
Seeing this, Xu Chi could only sigh, "Okay, then I'll go with you later, and Xu Lan asked me to pick him up."
Xu Chi deliberately looked at Qi Yan's reaction again, seeing that he was indeed completely indifferent, and thinking that the other party would soon have a legal partner, he suddenly felt that he could almost let go of the stone that had been pressing on his heart.
It took Xue Zimu half an hour to arrive at the nearest pet hospital. During this period, the kitten still didn't move much, it only hummed weakly a few times, which made Xue Zimu very anxious. After getting off the car, he walked in quickly and gave the kitten Register to see a doctor.
Most of the animals that come to the pet hospital are pets with owners. Few of them are so dirty like the one in Xue Zimu's arms that the hair is knotted into strands. Fortunately, the doctor is also well-informed. I didn't mind that the kitten was dirty, so I took it directly and started to see the doctor.
"Except for the right front leg, there should be no fractures elsewhere. Let's take an X-ray first. If there is no internal bleeding, the problem is not serious. The right front leg may also recover." The doctor made a preliminary diagnosis.
Xue Zimu hurried to pay the fee. He didn't bring any cash with him at all, but it was very convenient to pay by mobile phone at this time. Although Xue's family hadn't given him pocket money until now, fortunately, he had the property left by Shu Qing, so he wouldn't be in trouble.
After finishing the filming, I had to wait for a while. Xue Zimu hugged the kitten, and gradually realized that the cat was really good. He had been attacked just now, but he didn't seem to repel others, and he didn't resist during the inspection. Very docile.
In his previous life, Xue Zimu had a deep understanding of the feeling of being sick and lingering, so for such a cute and cute little guy, he sincerely hoped that the other party could live a healthy and lively life.
Xue Zimu's hope did not fail. After the examination results came out, the doctor also told him with great gratitude: "There is no internal bleeding, and the fracture of the right front leg is not serious. It is in the growth stage, and it should be able to fully recover after a period of treatment now." It's gone." After speaking, the doctor said again: "You just picked up a stray cat, right? If you plan to adopt it, do you want to vaccinate it by the way?"
So after the kitten was put in a plaster cast on the right front leg, Xue Zimu took the kitten to be vaccinated, and then cut off some entangled hair that could no longer be straightened out, and finally took a bath carefully.
After taking a bath, the kitten was no longer the size of a palm, and its hair was bald and deep. It was even uglier than before when it was dirty, but the staff who bathed it smiled and said to Xue Zimu: " It is a Linqing lion cat, and it will be very beautiful when the fur grows out."
Because the kitten was too dirty before, Xue Zimu always thought it was an ordinary Chinese pastoral cat with black and white flowers. Unexpectedly, the black color is all stains. In fact, its real color is pure white, and it also has a pair of extremely beautiful and clear ice blue eyes. .
After confirming with the doctor that it was time to review the plaster removal, Xue Zimu left the hospital with the kitten in his arms. He spent more than an hour in the hospital, during which time he did not receive any news from Xue's family. Apparently, Xue Lin didn't tell Yao Yue that she ran away on the way to the concert.
Touching the head of the little guy in his arms, Xue Zimu felt a little embarrassed. According to his own opinion, he must want to adopt the little guy, but he lives in Xue's house now. Although Xue Li and Yao Yue probably won't object to him keeping pets, there is another Xue family who doesn't seem to be against him. Uncomfortable Xue Lin. Even if Xue Lin's objection is invalid on the surface, it is very possible to hurt the kitten secretly when Xue Zimu is not paying attention. If the little guy gets kicked again, he may not be able to have good luck this time.
Thinking of Xue Lin, Xue Zimu was not at ease to bring the cat to Xue's house. So after standing in the shade of a tree beside the road and thinking for a while, Xue Zimu decided to put the little guy in foster care for a while, and then take him back to raise him when he moves out of Xue's house.
After making a decision, Xue Zimu turned around and went back to the pet hospital where he had just come out. He was going to ask if there was any pet foster care business here.
Qi Yan tidied up in the office, and after confirming that there were no remaining work tasks, he went downstairs with Xu Chi, and then drove to two different directions.
Qi Yan never paid much attention to the buildings and pedestrians on the side of the road when driving, but when he passed a rather crowded intersection, he suddenly felt something, and turned his head to look to the right while waiting for the red light.
Then he saw a delicate and somewhat familiar side face, and a small hairy ball in the other's arms.
The green light came on, and the car behind honked its horn twice.
Qi Yan stepped on the accelerator and turned the steering wheel, but the scene he just saw was in his mind.
