Chapter 8 Entering the Pet Clinic
Chapter 8 Entering the Pet Clinic
On the corner of the quiet street stands a pet clinic with a good reputation. It is said to be good, but in fact there are only two facades.The one on the left was used as a ward with small rows of cages, and the one on the right was the consultation office.
At this time, it was dead of night, and the other staff in the clinic had all returned home from get off work, and only the boss was left in the two rooms full of small voices.
The female boss with half-haired hair was sitting at the table, thinking that it would be a quiet night, and she could close the door and leave after finishing the work in hand.
The sky was unsatisfactory, and just as she closed the notebook in her hand, a white car suddenly appeared in front of the door like a ghost.
The boss pushed the presbyopic glasses impatiently, because he was afraid that the visitor would be an uninvited guest because he was in a hurry.
Sure enough, the car door was opened neatly, and a woman in black got out of the car, with a dying orange cat wrapped around her white arms that echoed the moonlight.
Through the glass door, the boss could tell from a glance that the orange cat's life was hanging by a thread, not to mention, the flustered expression on the woman's face also indirectly explained the situation.
This person and one cat are undoubtedly Xia Shuang and He Dongyang. Xia Shuang checked the address non-stop, and then drove straight here.
Xia Shuang covered her pajamas with a windbreaker, and before she could say anything, she saw the doctor behind the door beckoning to her, and she no longer hesitated to hold He Dongyang in.
The moment she walked in the door, the boss got up and greeted her: "Put the cat on the bed, I will check and ask you something."
Xia Shuang didn't speak, and gently placed He Dongyang on the hard iron bed. Even though he lost consciousness, He Dongyang still arched his body reflexively when he touched the cold surface.
The boss put on gloves and stuffed a rubber teething stick into He Dongyang's mouth to prevent her from biting herself or others.
She gently pressed He Dongyang's fragile belly, and asked Xia Shuang: "What did you eat to become like this?"
This question stopped Xia Shuang, and she didn't confirm the question on the way here.
After Xia Shuang recalled it roughly, she said back without confidence: "It should be chocolate."
Hearing the previous two words, the boss's face became unsullied: "What should it mean? You are her owner and you have a cat. Don't you care about what can be eaten and what can't? The cat ate chocolate. It will cause poisoning convulsions, with a high probability of death."
The boss has lived half his life, and among the careless people he has met, this one is in the front row.
Logically speaking, Xia Shuang is the customer, and now that she has been scolded, she feels that she has no temper at this time.
Seeing that Xia Shuang didn't respond, the boss finished the preliminary examination, removed the thing from He Dongyang's mouth, and said, "Next, I'm going to induce vomiting and perform gastric lavage. Is there any problem?"
"No."
He Dongyang's tail lay limply on one side, and seeing that the tail seemed to have been separated from her body, Xia Shuang recalled that in the past few days, she liked to wag her tail when she was proud or coquettish.
In just a few days of getting along, although the cat always made a lot of mess for her, it was a fresh life. Seeing the life disappear, especially in her own hands, Xia Shuang felt a little hard to describe.
The boss rummaged through the surgical instruments, seeing that Xia Shuang was still standing still, he stopped and said, "Go out and wait, I'll call you if you need anything."
After searching for the utensils, they were fully placed in the hands of the boss.
Xia Shuang said, "I can help deliver things."
The boss was a little surprised: "This is the first time I've heard such a request, it's fine to stay. However, if you don't have the heart to watch it later, it's okay to regret it."
"Ah."
The boss handed her the gloves, and asked in a softer tone: "Is this the first time you have a cat?"
"It's been less than a week."
boss:"……"
In fact, He Dongyang's soul leaving the body at that moment was not an illusion. She really left her body and drifted outside for a few seconds.
It was these few seconds that made her feel that her previous life was empty.
Such an expression might be a bit wrong. In fact, she felt that the last six months were empty, and this was due to the relationship between Xia Shuang and her.
When the sweetness of the past three years is slowly consumed, and the strange smell from the bottom of the sweet bottle spreads, many things are different.
After half a year of transition, their way of getting along has become unexpected, but it just happens to be reasonable. If it doesn't make sense, it can't be understood, but it is logical in another sense.
He Dongyang spends most of his time at home. Her job is a full-time writer. This job just suits her heart. It would be great if she doesn't have to go out to deal with those mundane affairs.
Xia Shuang is an oil painter. What is enviable is that she also turned her interest into work.The difference between the two is that Xia Shuang has a lot of activities, and these exhibitions and exchange meetings take up her leisure time other than mining wind.
When they first got together, it was just the joy of two unknown people.
However, time goes by and people change.
After each started to get busy, even a normal conversation became a luxury.The appointments that are canceled again and again are not because one party missed the appointment, but because no one seems to be interested.
As far as how the relationship is going, it's not a matter of this aspect when you go deeper. At least He Dongyang knows that she loves Xia Shuang, and it has never changed from the past to the present. The only thing that has changed is her enthusiasm.
It was like seeing a landscape and then thinking about many things. The moment He Dongyang saw gave her a certain amount of determination.
She can't be lazy, eating a piece of chocolate today almost killed her, if life can't taste something delicious, what's the point of being paralyzed.
When she survives this time, she will actively complete the task, and talk to Xia Shuang about some things by the way.
It is not the style of two people to end this relationship in a muddle.
The boss and Xia Shuang were busy for several hours, but He Dongyang felt like he had slept for a long time. When she regained consciousness, it would be dawn.
The first thing she saw was Xia Shuang. She pulled up a stool and sat on the edge of the small hospital bed. The windbreaker she wore when she came came covered He Dongyang's stomach. Xia Shuang was awake.
He Dongyang just woke up, her mind was a little confused, she opened her mouth to call Xia Shuang, but when the words came out, it turned into a meow.
He Dongyang's squinted eyes widened in an instant. She clearly called "Xia Shuang". The moment she shouted, her scalp was still numb. She was about to blame herself for not keeping her mouth shut, but she didn't get the chance to blame her. .
There was a tired look on Xia Shuang's face, she raised her hand to stroke He Dongyang's round head, and said, "Why dare to eat anything, I bought it for Dongyang, you are so greedy."
He Dongyang looked at her in confusion. Xia Shuang was talking, but the information that entered his ears was like garbled characters, and He Dongyang couldn't understand a single word.
How did it become like this again...
Xia Shuang thought she was walking before the gate of hell, and her reaction was dull and normal. She sighed softly and said in a low voice: "Just like Dongyang, you are as disobedient. When she comes back, you two can be companions, but she doesn't like cats. You don't like cats." It has to be liked."
It was still a bunch of garbled characters, and He Dongyang was a little anxious when she heard it, so she yelled again: "Xia Shuang, I can't understand what you are saying, why are you working so hard?"
Xia Shuang smiled: "Okay, I know you, as long as you understand."
Such a conversation made He Dongyang extremely tired. Fortunately, Xia Shuang didn't say a word, and the boss called Xia Shuang over.
He Dongyang was free, he couldn't wait to pat his head and asked if the system was malfunctioning.
The system explained that she left the main body last night, causing a short circuit in the connection, and the task completion level needs to be reloaded, the update time will not be too long, and I hope she will wait patiently.
The cat can't stand it. It takes so long to load just that little progress. In this day and age, can't we have an advanced system? If possible, the one that can complete the task by itself is very good.
Xia Shuang didn't come back after being called away. He Dongyang had been a regular cat in the pet clinic for a day, and she couldn't speak out anyway, so she kept meowing and chatting with the cat next to her.
The white cat entered the clinic because he met the cihuamao when he went out with his owner two days ago, and was frightened by the majesty of the cihuamao from a distance, and accidentally stepped on the manhole cover.
He Dongyang explained to it that the cihuamao is not that scary, and agreed to take it out to make friends with the cihuamao.
The clinic is very noisy now, because He Dongyang is trying to persuade Baimao and her to see Cihuamao, but the shadow in Baimao's heart is too great, and several packets of dried fish disagree.
Only weak meowing could be heard one after another.
"Meow meow meow."
"Meow."
The boss came to check the situation of the patient, and when he saw this scene, he sighed and said, "Can you be quiet while you are on the drip, you two are so noisy that you are resting next door."
A young male nurse passing by heard it, and took up the conversation: "Teacher, the little orange cat is very active. The white cat was still afraid of people yesterday, and it didn't bark. It sounds good today."
The boss nodded and said with a smile, "Don't tell me, I've seen so many cats. The little orange cat is very intelligent. Look at her sitting posture, does she look like she's crossing her legs?"
The male nurse laughed heartily: "Like! Yangyang, are you feeling better now?"
Since the two stood here, the white cat restrained its voice and leaned its head on its arm obediently.Seeing that the male nurse was laughing profusely, He Dongyang didn't want to talk to him at all, turned around and got down on the ground.
Seeing this, the male nurse helplessly spread his hands to the boss.
At some point in the afternoon, the progress of the system tasks can be regarded as being loaded. He Dongyang is different from ordinary cats. She recovers very quickly and can eat normally at night.
The next day, she was basically alive and kicking, and she didn't need a drip. She occupied the best bed in the hospital and waited for Xia Shuang to pick her up. However, after another day, Xia Shuang was still gone.
He Dongyang had to sleep in the hospital for another day, but it was still the third day. She could name each of the cats and dogs inside, and Xia Shuang finally walked into the hospital.
Immediately, He Dongyang went straight to her happily, Xia Shuang squatted down cooperatively, let her jump into his arms, and rubbed her paws.
He Dongyang enjoyed Xia Shuang's touch, rubbed his head against her palm, and suddenly heard Xia Shuang call her "Yangyang".
It was this sound of "Yangyang" that changed He Dongyang's sanity, she is not a cat, how could she rub her hands like this!
