Xiao Qi sat at the front desk with nothing to do, and the busy work of the pet store usually starts in the afternoon.

The storefront next door is being renovated, and occasionally there is a "jingling" sound, and Mu Kite supervises the whole process, meticulous about all kinds of details.

There are some discordant places, she will also help by herself, which makes the decoration workers a little dissatisfied, but also has to admire Mu Kite's rigorous attitude.

Xiao Qi originally wanted to help, but there was no big problem on his own, although his left hand still couldn't be used hard just in case, but his right hand was intact, and some small things could still be done.

However, Mu Kite made a small face and resolutely drove him back on the grounds that he was a wounded.

Xiao Qi opened the drawer at the front desk in boredom, ready to check the entry and exit accounts of these days, and accidentally saw a red rope bracelet.

This bracelet is Mu Kite's, which is usually worn on the wrist of the left hand and taken off when working.

There are also some ropes in the corners of the drawers, in red, white and black, and it seems that this bracelet is hand-woven by Mu Kite.

A thumb-sized white jade pendant hangs on the red rope, and a smiling face with a tongue stuck out is painted on the jade, which looks very playful.

The corners of Xiao Qi's mouth curved into an arc and laughed, he didn't expect Mu Yuan to have such a girlish side.

Fang Ling hurriedly ran out of the beauty room with her mobile phone, her cheeks were slightly red, her brows were slightly furrowed, and she looked a little angry.

She looked at and saw that no guests had come in, and ran to Xiao Qi in a few steps, her tone a little anxious: "Boss, something happened again!"

Xiao Qi hurriedly put Mu Kite's bracelet back in the drawer, and looked at Fang Ling with a bad face: "What do you mean that something happened again, can you say something auspicious, I feel a pain in my head when I hear it." ”

Fang Ling stared at Xiao Qi with round eyes, without a hint of jokes: "Boss, it's true!"

Xiao Qi frowned, and his originally joking tone sank: "Very serious?"

Fang Ling nodded and handed the phone to Xiao Qi.

On the mobile phone is a Weibo, the title is very seductive: "Shocked! The pet store environment is bad, and the cute pets have fled!"

The article implies that the cute pet paradise uses threats and abuse to make pets obedient, and the foster environment is poor, and there have been many pet escapes.

Weibo was accompanied by several photos and a short video of blackened walls and debris on the floor, as evidence, and the moment the captain jumped out of the second-floor window.

Xiao Qi originally thought it was just a prank by some people, but from this Weibo, it seems that this is no longer a simple rumor, the other party is obviously carefully planned, the purpose is to destroy the good reputation of the cute pet paradise.

Xiao Qi's brows became heavier and heavier, these photos were faked, and they were not taken from the pet store, but the place next door that was being renovated.

However, the video of the captain jumping from the window on the second floor is real, Xiao Qi has no way to deny this, and it was originally his decision to open the window to ventilate the foster care room.

After Xiao Qi communicated with the pets in the cat room, they naturally didn't run around, in fact, only the captain liked to jump up and down, but people on the Internet didn't pay attention to these, all they saw was the captain running away from the window.

Most of the comments on Weibo revolve around the video, and many of the comments are condemning the irresponsible behavior of the cute pet park, and many pet owners have said that such pet shops should not exist, and the relevant departments should deal with them immediately.

I have to say that people who spread rumors are very good at grasping people's psychology and integrating half-truths and half-truths, which makes them convincing.

The comments are not all denouncing the cute pet paradise, and several are defending the pet store, among which the most noticeable one is a comment called "Lingling is a fairy".

Lingling is a fairy: "Don't be fooled, the cute pet paradise is definitely not what he said, this is completely a rumor!"

However, this comment was the worst scolded.

Brother Hammer replied: "The floor washing dog sent by the pet store, the identification is complete!"

Erha asked the family to reply: "The evidence is conclusive, and the face comes out to wash, it is really a brain-dead pet store!"

……

Xiao Qi turned his head sideways to look at Fang Ling and asked, "You sent it?"

Fang Ling was so angry that her face was swollen like a bun, and she gritted her teeth and said, "These people are really too much, don't you know what seeing is believing? They haven't come to us to see it at all, so they just express their opinions there!"

Xiao Qi adjusted his mentality and comforted: "Recently, the business in the store is good, and we are going to expand our business, it is inevitable that we will be jealous, you don't have to be too angry, go back and work hard, and do your own things well." ”

Fang Ling nodded and asked, "Don't you have to tell Sister Mu?"

Xiao Qi shook his head and said, "She's too tired these days, I'll just deal with this matter." ”

At this time, a guest happened to come in with a beagle, and Fang Ling took him into the grooming room.

Xiao Qi thought about it, there were only two people who could be so hostile to his pet shop.

One is He Chong, Xiao Qi has dealt with him, every time he is unhappy, and He Chong's eyes are always full of hatred when he sees him, and it is reasonable for him to retaliate.

The other person is Chen Ping, the owner of the Love Pet Shop on the street, a guy who always comes with a smile on his face, but always makes small movements.

However, Xiao Qi didn't like him since he first saw him, Chen Ping was definitely the kind of person who was very scheming, but it was hidden under his smiling appearance.

The two are both pet stores, and it is inevitable to compete with each other, but if such a despicable method is used, Xiao Qi will naturally be a little angry in his heart.

Xiao Qi first made a phone call to He Qingqing, asked about the current situation of the candy, and vaguely asked He Chong about his movements in the past few days.

After all, it's just suspicion now, and no matter what people say, they are all brothers and sisters, of course Xiao Qi can't ask questions with a state of asking about guilt.

Xiao Qi learned from He Qingqing that He Chong had recently played the role of a filial son in front of his father, and he hadn't gone out to cause trouble these days, which made his father very pleased.

However, in He Qingqing's opinion, He Chong must have something to ask his father to be so obedient.

Xiao Qi quietly changed the topic, talked to He Qingqing about Weibo, and asked her to use the name of the president of the pet lovers association to refute the rumors for his pet shop.

He Qingqing was very refreshing: "That's as it should be, I just happened to find an opportunity to thank you for curing the candy, this time it can be regarded as a favor for you." ”

Xiao Qi said with a smile: "You have already promoted my pet store in your group and introduced me to so many customers, I already owe you a favor." ”

He Qingqing said generously: "Then you have time to invite me to dinner." ”

Xiao Qi also admires He Qingqing's unpretentious character: "That's a must, I can't ask for it." ”

"Well, I'll explain it to you in the group. He Qingqing smiled, then changed his tone and asked, "Do you suspect that this matter has anything to do with Ah Chong?"

He Qingqing is not stupid, as soon as the two things come to mind, he naturally thinks of Xiao Qi's motive for secretly inquiring about He Chong's news in his words.

Xiao Qi touched his nose and said with some embarrassment: "There are some misunderstandings between me and He Chong, and some suspicions are inevitable, but I only have preliminary suspicions, no evidence." ”

He Qingqing was silent for a while, and said, "I'll go and talk to Ah Chong, if it's really him, I'll let him apologize to you." ”

He Qingqing hung up the phone after speaking, and was obviously a little angry when she heard the tone, but it was no wonder that although He Chong's performance these days seemed to her to have another purpose, she must have hoped that He Chong would become sensible, and now she couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

Xiao Qi sighed softly, and stopped thinking about other people's family affairs, which he really couldn't help.

At this moment, He Chong walked in from the door.
