Chapter 11: I got tricked by a Border Collie.
The video, as the title suggests, tells the story of the blogger's seven-day love-hate relationship with her dog.
From the anticipation before bringing her home, to the joy of bringing her home, to the despair upon seeing her pooping and peeing everywhere and being naughty, and finally to being filled with love and willingness, this is the entire process of a woman's emotional breakdown. Ah, no… it's the entire process of the other person's inner transformation.
Xin Qi chuckled; it was quite funny. He silently gave the video a thumbs up and then watched all the videos from those seven days.
The more he looked at the video, the more he felt that the neighborhood and pet store in it looked exactly like the area where he lived.
Although the people in the video did not appear on camera, everything from the room layout to the dog's barking, and the woman's desperate cry as she knelt on the ground, shouting, "Young Master, please calm down, Mom is tired," felt incredibly familiar to him.
Suddenly he sprang out of bed, opened the sliding door to the yard, and peered into the yard, listening intently to observe the layout of his neighbor's balcony.
That's right, the video blogger recommended to him by the Lizhi app is that crazy woman next door.
The dog's name seems to be... Yu Meili, and the blogger's account is...
Xin Qi looked down to check, and it read: [Yu Meili's Mother].
Surname Yu...
It can't be such a coincidence.
Like 'Xin', this surname is not a common one; it's relatively uncommon but not extremely obscure.
There is a high probability, but it cannot be completely certain.
Xin Qi immediately followed the other party using a secondary account.
...
After the video went viral, Yu Yue's account gained a lot of followers, which gradually stopped when it reached over 60,000.
The video's popularity led to a surge in her followers and several advertising opportunities for pet supplies.
In her first month as a blogger, she earned more than she had imagined. Perhaps she really has the talent and luck, at least in the pet blogger field.
However, once the initial excitement wore off, she started to worry about what to film next.
The content that follows is crucial in retaining existing fans.
If they continue to film similar themes, they might attract some viewers initially, but people will eventually get tired of it.
Just as Yu Yue was feeling distressed, in front of her yard, through the floor-to-ceiling glass window, Comrade Yu Meili suddenly started shouting excitedly and kept pawing at the glass door.
Yu Yue had already gotten used to wearing an action camera on her body to record things, so when Yu Meili made any noise, she subconsciously turned on the camera's recording function.
The next second, a somewhat dirty black and white Border Collie appeared in the frame. It had somehow wandered into her yard and was teasing her little Beagle through the glass.
The more the other person teased her, the more anxious Yu Meili became, trying to pry open the glass door and barking loudly. Unfortunately, Yu Yue had locked the door to prevent her from escaping.
"Good girl, little Bi, you're too small to go out yet." Yu Yue walked over and patted Yu Meili's head, then picked her up and put her back in the cage.
Then she took a bag of dog food provided by the brand, poured it into the bowl, and took the bottle she usually used to feed Xiao Bi water. She opened the French windows and sliding doors and went to feed the Border Collie.
Yu Yue suspected that the other party was an abandoned pet dog that looked like it had been wandering around the neighborhood for a long time.
The Border Collie was very smart; it obediently ate the food and water she brought out. Yu Yue even took the opportunity to pet it a couple of times, and the Border Collie not only didn't dodge but also rubbed its head against her palm.
Yu Yue's heart melted instantly, and she wished she could take it home and raise it too.
Unfortunately, she didn't know whether the dog had been abandoned or was lost, and even if she wanted to adopt it, she didn't have the extra energy.
So that very night, she used the footage she had recorded to edit a new video.
Are Border Collies all strays these days? Looking for the dog's owner!
In the video, Yu Yue recorded the Border Collie's interactions with Xiao Bi and feeding the Border Collie, and also took the opportunity to promote the brand's dog food.
[What an adorable Border Collie!]
Border Collies actually have a high abandonment rate because they are too intelligent and difficult to raise.
[It looks like it's been a stray for a long time, but thankfully it met a kind person. Hopefully, the dog will find its owner soon.]
Has Little Bi found a good friend dog? Haha, Little Bi is so cute today!
At that moment, Xin Qi next door also saw the new video notification. He clicked on it and found that today's protagonist was a black and white Border Collie.
Yes, he could confirm that he had seen the Border Collie in the neighborhood these past two days, which meant that the blogger was indeed the woman who lived next door to him.
However, it's still difficult to confirm whether it's the person he's thinking of.
Xin Qi subconsciously came to the yard and looked to the side, just in time to meet the furtive black eyes of a Border Collie.
He suddenly had a flash of inspiration, as if he had thought of something.
...
In the following days, Yu Yue's video was widely shared, and the traffic increased significantly, but the Border Collie's original owner still couldn't be found. It seems that it was indeed abandoned by someone else.
Yu Yue asked the community management and found that no one had lost a dog. They told her that this Border Collie had been a stray in their community for quite some time, growing up by begging for food from everyone. Because everyone in the community liked dogs, they turned a blind eye and didn't chase it away. Mainly, this Border Collie was also very clever and knew how to ingratiate itself with everyone to get free food and drink.
Actually, there were people who wanted to adopt it, but the Border Collie might have had a history of being abandoned and was unwilling to go home with the owner.
Yu Yue felt a little sorry for it. Every time the Border Collie came to visit her, she would fill it with food and water.
I don't know if it's because of Xiao Bi, but this Border Collie comes to her yard every day now, teasing her through the glass. Every time, Yu Meili gets teased and barks loudly, clinging to the glass door and refusing to let go.
Yu Yue had no choice but to play the bad guy again and take Xiao Bi back.
It was because Xiao Bi got so excited that she started peeing on the spot without even having time to put a diaper pad on her.
Fortunately, she can take Xiao Bi to get its last vaccination today, and then she can take it out to play.
Comrade Yu Meili is a healthy, lively, and active dog. Keeping her cooped up at home all the time must have made her feel stifled, which is why she spends all day destroying things, chewing up all kinds of furniture, from small items like slippers and trash cans to larger items like TV cabinets and sofas.
Once she's allowed to take the dog out for walks, Yu Yue believes that Xiao Bi will stop being naughty at home, and she'll be able to relax a bit.
The weather was nice today, and Yu Yue rode a shared electric scooter, taking Xiao Bi, who was in a cage, to the nearby pet hospital.
All the way, Little Bi kept excitedly spinning around in its cage.
Fortunately, it was only a ten-minute walk away.
The doctor's skillful technique ended the fight before Yu Yue and Xiao Bi could even react.
"The dog is very healthy, you've taken good care of it," the doctor exclaimed. "What an energetic and adorable little thing."
Upon hearing this, Yu Yue instantly burst into tears of emotion. Before she could even react, she heard the doctor on the other end say, "I've seen your videos before. This must be Comrade Yu Meili, hahaha."
Yu Yue: ...!!!
She was actually recognized, and for some reason, she felt a little embarrassed.
"Can I be on camera?" the doctor asked excitedly, pointing to the camera she was recording.
Yu Yue nodded, "Of course."
...
Meanwhile, in Yu Yue's yard, the Border Collie was wagging its tail and enjoying a hearty dog food feast when a 'pee-pee' sound suddenly came from next door, instantly catching its attention.
Turning its head, the Border Collie spotted the male owner from the neighboring yard, and then turned back to continue eating, looking bored.
"Hey, I've got some good food here." Xin Qi waved the sausage in her hand, trying to entice him, "Does it smell good?"
This is a dog treat that he specifically researched online and recommended as the number one favorite on the list.
Sure enough, the next second, the clever Border Collie sniffed and wagged its tail as it came over. The dog food no longer tasted good, and it stared longingly at the sausage in its hand.
Xin Qi instantly curled her lips into a smile and withdrew her hand. "Do me a favor, and I'll give you some to eat."
The Border Collie blinked and tilted its head, as if it understood but also as if it didn't.
"Help me lure that beagle over here. If you agree, we'll high-five as a pledge; if you don't, that's fine too," Xin Qi said, extending her hand—the one not holding the sausage—to tentatively approach the Border Collie.
The Border Collie barked twice and actually stretched out its paws.
However, its claws are too short to reach its opponent.
Xin Qi immediately bent down and lowered his hand so that the Border Collie could reach his hand.
However, the next second, the Border Collie suddenly leaped up and pounced, snatching the sausage from his other hand and running away.
While running, she didn't forget to laugh at him.
Xin Qi: ...
Damn, I was fooled by a dog.
However, how could he not have a backup plan? As the Border Collie turned around triumphantly, Xin Qi secretly took out a second sausage from behind his back and waved it triumphantly at the other party.
Border Collie: ...
The sausage I had just bitten into was swallowed in no time, its aroma filling the air, its texture superb, and its aftertaste unforgettable.
What to do? The sausage in this evil human's hand is too delicious; it has no choice but to give in.
...
In the past few days, Yu Yue has felt that the Border Collie has been coming more and more frequently, almost treating her yard as its den. When she wakes up in the morning and draws back the curtains, she can see the dog already squatting in front of the glass door, looking at her expectantly.
After confirming with the veterinarian, Yu Yue officially allowed Xiao Bi to roam around the yard.
The two best friends dogs no longer have to look at each other through the glass.
Not only that, she also discovered that her little Bi really liked that Border Collie, always following it around and having a great time. It would often be so tired that it would stick out its tongue but still didn't want to leave, and it didn't even have the energy to make a fuss at night. Yu Yue was very pleased and once again improved the quality of the Border Collie's diet.
Recently, her fan base has been growing steadily, and the dog food and pet toys sent by brands are becoming increasingly high-end. Her back-end income is also quite substantial, so she doesn't feel bad about buying food.
So now she's actually hoping that the Border Collie will come over often to help her take care of the baby, so as to burn off Yu Meili's boundless energy.
What she didn't expect was that one evening, the Border Collie lured her little dog away!
That's right, the Border Collie actually managed to escape through the gap in the fence of the house garden while she wasn't paying attention!
Yu Yue didn't even know there was a gap where Xiao Bi could squeeze through, because every time the Border Collie came over, it would use its long legs to jump and fly directly over the green belt and fence, so she never thought that her Xiao Bi could go out.
Fortunately, the Border Collie didn't take her little Bieber too far. Instead, it took her back into the neighbor's yard. Yu Yue could even hear Yu Meili's excited 'werwerwer' barking coming from next door.
Yu Yue was on the verge of tears. Her own idiot had been so easily kidnapped! What if he ran into bad people and bad dogs?
This Border Collie looks clever, but I never expected it to be up to no good.
She hurriedly changed her clothes and shoes and went out to knock on her neighbor's door.
