meow if you are happy

Chapter 2 Catnip for being promoted to boss
The "bad relationship" with Xiao Xiu began in the afternoon a week after Chi Yan took over Grandpa's Bookstore.

In grandpa's bookstore, Chi Yan was holding a thermos bottle soaked with goji berries, leaning against the window and looking at the sparsely populated Nanli Street, and said to the grandpa behind the counter: "You are now...in such a situation, the bookstore..."

Grandpa is 85 years old. It's not that Chi Yan never proposed to close the bookstore, but he was dismissed as soon as he spoke.

But today grandpa said: "I gave it to you, you will take good care of it, right?"

???

So grandpa has already made up his mind to let him take care of the bookstore?
The bookstore is not a living thing, how can he "take care of" it?
"But, I..."

Chi Yan is really not good at dealing with people.He hesitated for a moment.However, he likes books. He has been sitting silently in the corner of the bookstore since he was a child, and he also has extremely strong feelings for this bookstore.Looking at this old bookstore that has been with him for a long time, Chi Yan would be reluctant to let go if his grandfather just closed it.

Before he could answer, Grandpa said, "Then I'll leave it to you."

"..."

Grandpa stood up and walked a few steps as if he had thought of something again. He looked back and said, "Making a living is not a problem."

In this way, he took over this very humble bookstore from his grandfather.

After that, grandpa was finally able to retire and return to his ancestral home in the countryside.

Becoming a bookstore owner is something Chi Yan has never thought of.However, he quickly accepted this setting, coming to the bookstore on time every day with the inseparable wolfberry thermos bottle, and closing early in the afternoon to go home.The bookstore was very quiet, with strangers coming and going, inquiring about books, checking out, and leaving. No one had ever interacted with him too much.For Chi Yan, this is the best, as it saves some effort in dealing with people. After all, getting along with people is what he fears most.Then he can read in peace and be a gunman of third-rate novels.

One day, Xu Zihao's fatal serial CALL rang.Chi Yan put down the books he was sorting without haste, walked over, and took the phone. The other party's voice was very urgent, "I need one very much now. The jade tree is in the wind, the country is beautiful, the fish is in the sky, the goose is in the moon, the flowers are shy, and he is born with a physique that attracts cats. The beautiful boy is here to help!”

Chi Yan said calmly: "Speak in human terms."

On the other end of the phone, Xu Zihao wailed: "Jianghu help, brother! I just received a hot-tempered eldest lady today, and my unparalleled face is about to be scratched by her claws."

Chi Yan put the phone away from his ears: "Oh, wait a moment, I'll see how disfigured you are."

The other party's dissatisfied voice came from the phone - Chi Yan!Are you a devil!Don't you have any love at all!

Chi Yan ignored Xu Zihao, who was driven crazy by the cat and himself, and hung up the phone.

I don’t know how bad Xu Zihao’s appearance is. The advertisement for the plastic surgery hospital I saw last time was pretty good. What was it called?

spring breeze?Or Chun-Li?
While thinking, Chi Yan locked the door of the bookstore and rushed to Xu Zihao's newly opened charitable pet rescue center.

Speaking of Xu Zihao, he was probably Chi Yan's only friend in childhood. If grandpa is Chi Yan's warmest home, then Xu Zihao is the family's repeater, nagging in Chi Yan's ear every day.

Chi Yan was a quiet and solitary child, and sometimes felt that Xu Zihao was noisy, so every time he played with him, he would ask his grandfather to tell Xu Zihao that he was not at home.I thought I could get some peace and quiet and read a book in the backyard. When I looked up, I saw Xu Zihao leaning half of his body against the wall and waving to him with a smile.

Chi Yan was holding the book, really dumbfounded.

At that time, the begonia flowers in the yard were in bloom. The flower branches crossed over his young and energetic face, and the pink and white petals fell on his short, somewhat curly hair. It was the only colorful painting of Chi Yan in his childhood. Bar.

Later, Xu Zihao, a poor student and playboy, worked hard to get into the same high school as Chi Yan. When Chi Yan asked him why, he said that his family was bankrupt and all the dowries of his cousins ​​in the family fell on him. A person's shoulder.

Chi Yan almost believed it.

However, after graduating from the third grade of junior high school and approaching the high school entrance examination, Xu Zihao was forced to go to a famous foreign business school as the sole heir of the family.However, how could he be so obedient? He dropped out of school and changed his major to become a pet doctor. Now that he has returned from his studies, he has opened a pet rescue center.

It was not the first time that Chi Yan had gone to a pet rescue center for emergency treatment, and it was not just today that Xu Zihao's fatal serial calls went out.Speaking of which, these are all related to one of his characteristics.

—He always calms cats down.To be precise, he can always gain the cat's trust.

Therefore, whenever there is a frightened, ferocious cat that is afraid of humans, the effect of Chi Yan comes into play.

And he... is not disgusted.

　Happy Valentine's Day everyone~!
