Chapter 698: Emergency Visit

Zhang Zian felt that Famous had a strange look on its face––as if it was about to say something, but it didn’t.

He didn’t have time to think further. A lot of preparation was needed before traveling abroad, and time was precious.

“Yiyun, Wang Qian, and Li Kun, watch the shop for me first. I’m going outside. You can eat on your own at noon, and don’t order my lunch. I may not be back then.” He put on his jacket and spoke while going downstairs.

“Master, where are you going?” Wang Qian and Li Kun asked out of curiosity.

“I’m heading to Germany with the Dog Warrior production crew, so I need to apply for a Visa today, along with other paperwork,” Zhang Zian explained briefly.

“Germany… Master, are you going there to beat up the immortality cultivators in Germany?” Their faces were full of envy. “Master, we want to go with you. We want to be your cheerleaders!”

“Stay here! You want to fly to heavens as well!” Zhang Zian answered grumpily.

The drying procedure had finished in the automatic dog washer. After a beep, Lu Yiyun opened the glass panel, and Jasmine jumped out with fresh, clean har. It didn’t enjoy the process, though, even with Fina’s orders. Water was still annoying, no matter what.

“Mr. Store Manager, when are you coming back?” She held up Jasmine, rubbed its body to pacify it, then asked with concern. She could more or less handle most customers, but not certain customers with weird questions. Without Zhang Zian in the shop, she didn’t have enough confidence.

“Well… I’m not sure about the return date yet. Maybe it’ll take a week or so. If we don’t win anything, I’ll be back earlier. If we win something, I’ll be back later. But I’m hoping to win an award, anyway,” Zhang Zian half-joked.

The kittens were just born in the shop, and a lot of help was needed. He knew that if he had to leave now, the responsibility of taking care of the kittens would all fall upon Yu Yiyun. It was unrealistic to rely on Wang Qian and Li Kun, the two dumb-*sses.

“Don’t worry. Don’t push too hard for the unreachable deals, either. Just let it be,” he encouraged her. “Aren’t you in a good relationship with Snowy and Ting Ying from the photography club of Binhai University? If you feel bored, just call them over to spend time with you. They enjoy watching you paint.”

“Oh.” Lu Yiyun nodded in agreement but still didn’t really want to bother them in her heart.

Zhang Zian thanked Masanori Suzuhara, “Miss Suzuhara, thank you again for the connections you made! Without you, these two automatic dog washers would have never shown up in my shop.”

When Masanori Suzuhara saw that the store owner was about to leave, she took the opportunity to say goodbye. “Mr. Store Manager, you are too kind. I’ll need your favor in the future. I need to go as well. I haven’t taken Snoopy out for a walk yet today.”

“Okay. Watch your steps, and have a safe trip. I won’t walk you out this time.”

“Mr. Store Manager, you don’t need to. I pass by this place every day when I jog.” Masanori Suzuhara smiled and waved her hands. She took out her phone and took a few pictures of the automatic dog washers so that she can send them to the company.

After seeing Masanori Suzuhara leave, Zhang Zian walked out as well. Instead of heading to the German consulate, he drove Sun Xiaomeng’s car to return it to her clinic. He was also going to ask her for a vaccination record of Famous, which was needed in airplane transport.

He had known for a while that he might have to travel to Germany, but the vaccination record for boarding a pet was only valid for five days. After the expiration, it would be deemed invalid and the pet would not be allowed to board the flight. It was useless to get the record too early. Fortunately, he received news that Sun Xiaomeng had just returned from her hometown today. Otherwise, it would have been such a hassle.

He parked the car in front of the pet clinic and then pushed the door open to enter.

“Happy New Year,” he greeted Long Xian, the nurse working at the cashier.

Long Xian was handling some chores with her head down. As she heard the greeting, she lifted her head and saw Zhang Zian. She smiled. “Manager Zhang, Happy New Year! Are you just visiting or looking for Xiaomeng for something?”

“I have something. Is she not around?” Zhang Zian tilted his head to look at the treatment facility. It was silent there; there seemed to be nobody around.

“A customer asked her for an emergency visit. She might come back around noon,” Long Xian replied with uncertainty. “Manager Zhang, if it’s urgent, shall I leave a message to her?”

An emergency visit on the first day back to work?

Zhang Zian could not wait here in vain. He put the car key on the cashier counter. “This is the key to her car. Please return it to her for me, and ask her to issue a pet vaccination record for boarding a flight. She can contact me through Wechat for details. This is urgent, so please tell her to do it as soon as possible.”

Long Xian wrote it down carefully on her notepad. “Is there anything else?”

“That’s all…” Zhang Zian was about to say goodbye, then he added, “I’m traveling abroad for a few days. When you have a free moment, feel free to visit my shop. Lu Yiyun is alone in the shop, and it’s impossible for her to communicate normally with Wang Qian and Li Kun––those two idiots.”

“All right. No problem!” Long Xian stretched out her hand with a smile. “However, Manager Zhang, you must send me a red packet.”

Zhang Zian said, “…Fine. I’ll send it later in Wechat.”

“Haha! Thank you in advance, Manager Zhang!” She made a bow with her fists, then shook her head with content.

“By the way, Sun Xiaomeng doesn’t often visit the patients outside, does she? Why is she making a visit today?” asked Zhang Zian. “What if you have other customers at the clinic?”

Long Xian shrugged. “We don’t have any other options. If there are other customers, they have to come back later this afternoon, or another day.”

She lowered her voice, “Manager Zhang, it’s true that Xiaoment doesn’t usually make visits outside, but this is a special case today.”

Zhang Zian was only asking a casual question, but Long Xian’s mysterious secrecy made him curious. Curiosity was human nature, after all. “What special case?”

“There was a well-known customer that called early this morning, when we just started the day. She said that she found a stray cat downstairs in very bad shape. It seems…” Long Xian hesitated a little, “Seems to have been abused very badly.”

“Oh? Please go on,” Zhang Zian frowned and asked.

“I don’t know the details. We’ll have to hear from Xiaomeng after she comes back…” Long Xian hinted that she didn’t know much about it.

As a young female vet visiting patients outside was risky. As far as Zhang Zian could remember, ever since he had known Sun Xiaomeng, she had never made door-to-door visits, regardless of how much danger the owner claimed its pet was in. She always insisted that the owner should send the pet to the clinic.

Why would a person as discreet as her make an exception and agree to pay a visit? Even without consulting Yuan Fang, he knew that there must be something special going on.

After noticing that Zhang Zian was in doubt, Long Xian whispered, “Manager Zhang, I heard it that the cat that was abused was one of the cats that escaped from Love Lovely Pets breeding base earlier… after receiving the phone call, Xiaomeng blamed herself a lot. She felt that if she had not asked for your help for the sake of her own breeding base, the Love Lovely Pets incident would not have happened, the pets would not have escaped, and they would not have been abused.”
