Chapter 18: The Real Guest

Zhao Qi has never had a pet, and of course he has never entered a pet store, but his intuition is that this store is a little strange. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info First of all, why do you see a black and white kitten sleeping in a crib when you enter the door? Second, instead of sitting behind the cash register to greet customers, the young man who looks like the owner of the shop is lazily leaning back on a chaise longue?

Still, the air was fresh, and there was no smell of pet feces that she feared she would smell. On top of that, there are relatively few types of pets in this store, and there are no reptile pets that disgust her - it seems that these strange pets have been popular recently, as if to show off their personality, and Zhao Qi is not sensitive to this.

When she looked at the pet store, Zhang Zi'an was also looking at her.

This woman is dressed in a famous brand from head to toe, although it is not a top luxury brand, but the price of a single piece is more than 1,000 yuan. Her makeup was a little thick, like makeup that was made up in the bathroom in a hurry, and her eyes were quite sharp, maybe she had just lost her temper.

Zhang Zi'an's evaluation of her is that she pays attention to the brand, but the consumption is more rational, and she can be regarded as the target group of the pet store, but it is uncertain how strong the desire to buy pets is.

Even so, he didn't mean to come forward to say hello, and let her choose her pet by herself, but used the remote control to brighten the lighting in the pet display area so that she could observe it.

Zhao Qi's first impression of this store is still good, in addition to being clean and tidy, the attitude of the store owner is also very good, unlike some stores that are pasted up like dog skin plasters by sales and shopping guides as soon as they enter the door, chattering in their ears non-stop, and they are not in the mood to carefully select goods at all.

She first ignored the white mouse and didn't give it a second glance. In her impression, whether it is a gray mouse, a white mouse or a yellow mouse, it is all disgusting, and maybe it also has germs.

Siam was the first to come up, meowing at her through the glass of the display case. The voice is very thin and soft, which is the common bark of a small milk cat.

Samoyed was stunned for a moment, and then immediately approached excitedly, sticking out his tongue and whining at her, as if he was coquettish.

Ying Short was a little reserved, not as impatient as the first two, but walked towards her unhurriedly, with a tentative meaning.

Zhao Qi was slightly startled. She usually lives in a high-rise apartment, goes to work early, and occasionally can see someone walking a dog and a cat in the public area downstairs......

When she was in middle school before, there was an incident that made her particularly embarrassed. That time, she met a brown puppy, the dog was not big, but the sexual interest was not small, and he pounced on her calf and began to rub it up and down. She was stunned for a long time, and suddenly felt that her trouser legs were wet, and when she looked at the people nearby, they all smiled at her for covering her mouth with bad intentions. Now the dog owner didn't do it, grabbed her, said that she kicked the puppy, and asked her to send the puppy to the pet hospital for examination...... Anyway, it was quite a big incident, and she remembered the common name of the dog - Teddy.

This incident left a lot of psychological shadow on her, she used to think that the puppy was quite cute, since this incident, she has always avoided the dog, no matter how big or small.

She admits that the white puppy in front of her is cute, but sorry, the dog can't do it.

Zhao Qi took two steps to the right, left the Samoyed display case, and stood between the display case of Siam and Yingxiao.

Samoyed was disappointed, whimpered in his throat, and fell down sadly, his ears drooping without energy. It didn't know what it had done wrong, why it had disgusted the candidate in the first place.

Siam was even more cheerful, and it stood up half-upright, its front paws pressed against the glass wall, trying to drill its head out of the circular breathable in the center of the glass wall for her to caress it. However, the glass hole is so small that it can only poke its mouth and nose out at most.

Ying Short was lying on his stomach next to the glass wall, staring at Zhao Qi with bright eyes.

In all fairness, both cats are cute, but Zhao Qi thinks she is a lady, so she prefers the ladylike style.

Zhao Qi's appearance is above average, her chin is a little rounded, not the awl face of an Internet celebrity, and her short and round cheeks are also a plus in her opinion.

She was a little worried, did Ying Short dislike her?

Zhao Qi turned around for half a circle, and just wanted to greet the boss, but saw that Zhang Zi'an had already stood next to him at some point.

"Boss, what kind of cat is this?" she flicked with her fingernails against the glass walls of the short display case.

In fact, most of the customers who walk into the pet store are like Zhao Qi, they don't know anything about pets, and a small number of them know some of the most common species - especially dogs, such as huskies, Samoyeds, golden retrievers, etc., because dogs need to be walked, and they can often be seen in the community or on the street, while cats don't need to, and they are fine at home for the rest of their lives. The more expensive the cat, the more reluctant the owner is to let them out of the house, so the recognition rate of the cat species is much lower than that of dogs.

Zhang Zi'an introduced: "This is just a British shorthair cat, and the one next to it is just Siam. ”

Zhao Qi sighed, noncommittal.

Zhang Zi'an knew that such a short introduction was meaningless, so he asked rhetorically: "I wonder if the guest has had a pet before?"

"Nope. She shook her head, her gaze wandering between Siam and Ying.

"If you have a pet for the first time, both cats are very suitable, and I recommend Ying's short. He said.

Zhao Qi hesitated and said, "I also think this blue one is very cute, but it doesn't seem to like me very much, right?"

"These two cats are different species, so they have different personalities," he explains. Siam is very warm and clingy when you get acquainted with it, and Ying is very warm to his host, but he is a little wary of strangers - you are a stranger to him now, so it is not surprising that he has this attitude. ”

Zhao Qi's expression was suspicious, she wondered if the boss was perfunctory to her, and just wanted to sell Ying Short as soon as possible.

"Are you sure? I'm afraid that if it grows up, it'll still be cold to me......"

Zhang Zi'an smiled and said, "Don't worry, these dogs and cats are all from regular farms and are hand-selected by me." Take Ying Short as an example, after their parents give birth to a litter of kittens, the breeder will select the kittens that are particularly close to people, stay as breeding cats, and then combine with other particularly close kittens after they are raised, so that the bred kittens will be closer to people. ”

Zhao Qi nodded as if he didn't understand.
