Chapter 389: Cattery

Translator: Henyee Translations    Editor: Henyee Translations

The next morning, Zhu Ling drove to pick Jing Yao up as soon as she woke up.

Shen Yu and the others came with them. Jing Yao found it a little strange that they came so early in the morning when the barbecue started in the afternoon.

Regarding her doubts, Zhu Ling said, “We have to make some preparations for the barbecue.”

Even Liang Xun hadn’t gone to work at that time. When Jing Yao and the others were about to set off, Liang Xun was still taking his time and didn’t look anxious at all.

He wasn’t in a hurry, but Jing Yao was anxious for him and kept urging him. “Liang Xun, hurry up. You’re going to be late.”

Seeing this, Zhu Sui smiled. “He’s the boss. What’s there to be afraid of being late?”

Jing Yao said, “Didn’t their company always say that leaders and employees are treated equally? Moreover, he has an appointment with his partner. It won’t give a good impression if he’s late.”

Zhu Sui was speechless.

Liang Xun took his briefcase and said, “I’m leaving immediately. Go out and play with them.”

Seeing that he was really leaving, Jing Yao left with Zhu Ling and the others.

Jing Yao and Zhu Ling shopped all morning and bought a trunk of things. They had lunch outside.

Jing Yao hadn’t eaten spicy hotpot for a long time, so she ate a little too much and didn’t want to move.

After dinner, Zhu Ling and the others planned to continue shopping.

Jing Yao waved her hand and said, “Why don’t we stop shopping? Let’s go back. I’m exhausted.”

Zhu Ling and the other two exchanged glances.

Shen Zhao said, “My friend opened a cattery nearby. Do you want to take a look?”

Jing Yao’s eyes lit up. She liked small animals very much and had wanted to keep them since she was young, but she could only think about it. Zhang Li would never agree.

Ever since she moved out, she was so poor that she could not even support herself. She had to rely on Zhu Ling to support her, so she did not dare to have a pet.

“I agree.” Yan Huan didn’t miss the expression on Jing Yao’s face and raised her hand in agreement.

Zhu Ling naturally knew Jing Yao’s preferences. She said, “Alright, let’s go take a look.”

Hence, the four of them drove straight to Shen Zhao’s friend’s cattery.

The cattery was located in a small alley. That alley was not considered remote. It was filled with teahouses and book cafes. It was very artistic.

Shen Zhao’s friend’s name was Gu Fan. She was a middle-aged woman in her thirties. She looked very calm and did not smile when she greeted them.

She really didn’t look like a businessperson.

She only chatted with Shen Zhao for a while before getting the girl in the shop to lead them to see the cats. There were all kinds of cats in the cattery and a special area for stray cats. The stray cats were all picked up by the shop owner from the roads.

There were also cats that were sent over after others picked them up. Cats in this area could be adopted for free.

When Jing Yao walked into this special area, she saw a snow-white kitten at a glance. It was very beautiful and was nested in a corner alone. It didn’t react when it saw them enter. It looked up indifferently and then lay back down.

Seeing Jing Yao stop, the girl who led them to watch followed her gaze.

After seeing the kitten, she took the initiative to say, “Our manager picked this cat up. When she first picked it up, its leg was run over by a car and it was on the verge of death. Our manager brought it to and fro the pet hospital for a month before it was saved.”

Jing Yao glanced at the little girl and then at the kitten. “Does it have a name?”

The little girl said, “Yes, her name is Mimi.”

Jing Yao did not ask how it was spelled. She turned to look at Gu Fan.

Gu Fan took a book and sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window to read it. There was a cup of tea on the small table in front of her. Her eyelids started to close as she read, as if she would fall asleep very soon.

Jing Yao felt that the white cat’s image was very similar to Gu Fan’s.

“Is anyone adopting it?” Jing Yao suddenly asked.

The others immediately looked at her.

The young lady’s eyes lit up and she hurriedly said, “No, no. Mimi is very beautiful, but her legs are disabled and can’t be cured. Many customers are unwilling to adopt her when they hear this. If Miss Jing likes it, we can help you with the adoption procedures.”

Jing Yao looked conflicted.

She did like it, but Liang Jing was still too young now. It was not suitable for her to have pets at home.

Jing Yao looked at Zhu Ling and the others. Zhu Ling and the others did not speak.

Zhu Ling was a career maniac. Sometimes, she would not be home for a few days and was not suitable to have cats.

Shen Zhao liked cats very much. She actually came to this cattery often and had the thought of adopting them, but she lived in the school dormitory most of the time now. The dormitory did not allow pets..
