Chapter 52 Sincerity He was afraid that Shen Xun was pretending.
Chapter 52
It was a sudden meeting.
It was just as sudden as what happened to Li Jie and Lu Mingyu... so sudden that Fang Ning was dazed for a moment and even forgot to hide, and bumped straight into Shen Xun.
After coming to his senses, the first thing he saw was Shen Xun's astonished eyes.
Shen Xun was also surprised to see him.
So it's bad luck again?
Fang Ning was speechless, embarrassed and flustered.
The fingers holding the phone tightened slightly, and he pursed his lips and moved to the side, ready for Shen Xun to come and cause trouble for him.
——After all, Fang Ning had been bothered twice before, so he was completely familiar with the process.
But unexpectedly, Shen Xun's reaction was different from the other two.
"Ningning?"
"What a coincidence, I actually ran into you here." With a flash of surprise in his eyes, Shen Xun was the first to greet Fang Ning.
Then the pet hospital fell silent.
Because Fang Ning did not answer Shen Xun's words.
He stood there, staring at Shen Xun blankly. After hearing him say "What a coincidence", he turned his eyes away slightly and waited for his next words.
After waiting for a minute, Shen Xun didn't say anything.
This made Fang Ning confused.
…Is that it?
Don't bother him anymore?
Fang Ning was stunned.
Except for him, everyone else was a little confused.
I don't know what happened, but I feel something strange. So everyone in the waiting area, including the front desk, looked at them curiously.
"Mr. Fang, have you paid the bill?" Sanhua's attending physician saw that Fang Ning had not returned for such a long time and had already come out of the clinic.
His sudden voice interrupted the inexplicable silence. Fang Ning quickly replied, "I've paid it, I'll be right there."
After saying that, he immediately looked at the front desk and spoke to the front desk staff, very anxiously: "Sister, my payment slip."
"Ah? Oh, okay." The receptionist woke up as if from a dream and quickly handed it over.
After getting the receipt, Fang Ning did not go to see Shen Xun, but immediately followed the doctor.
Without looking back, without any regrets.
It was as if he didn't know Shen Xun.
In the clinic, Fang Ning listened to the doctor talking about Sanhua's treatment plan.
Fang Ning had no objection. He put his hands on his knees, sat there and nodded obediently.
He paid 8,000 yuan in advance for hospitalization. After the doctor's calculation, there was probably a balance of about 2,000 to 3,000 yuan. The doctor said that the excess would be refunded and the shortfall would be supplemented in the future. Fang Ning was in a daze, and only after the doctor called his name did he agree.
But after thinking about it, he wrote down two estimated expenditures of 10x20 and 10x10 yuan on the budget note.
Doctor: “What is this?”
"I just checked and it says the kitten is having a hard time with the treatment. It needs to be fed a cat noodle every day to comfort itself, and canned food every two days." Fang Ning said, "Is that okay?"
"Of course." The doctor understood and said with a smile, "Mr. Fang, you are so kind."
"It's, it's okay." Although Fang Ning was used to Lu Mingyu's flattery, he still felt embarrassed by the compliments from strangers.
He pursed his lips and said, "It's not expensive, just give it to it. It's hard to get injections every day."
"Okay." The doctor nodded gently.
After discussing the treatment plan, the next step is to arrange for the cat to be hospitalized.
The veterinarian has been in this business for so long that he certainly knows the procedures. But at this moment, he did not move at all, but instead his eyes were all fixed on Fang Ning.
What a cute little boy.
He sat there obediently with his hands on his knees, he was so well-behaved.
And she would blush because of his compliment.
The tip of the ear that peeks out from the chestnut hair is pink, like some cute animal that has come to life.
The doctor was a little dazed, and didn't look away for a long time. It was not until Fang Ning frowned in confusion that his eyes focused and he pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose. "Okay, I'll arrange for it to be admitted to the hospital right away."
"By the way, have you picked a name?" The doctor said, "You'll need the kitten's name to register for hospitalization."
"Not yet, let me think about it." Fang Ning thought for a while and quickly decided on a name for the little croaker: "Let's call it Chestnut."
Doctor: “Okay.”
After completing the formalities, the doctor carried Sanhua to the inpatient department, and Fang Ning followed.
The doctor has filled the single cage that belongs to Li Zi with cat litter and cat food.
Fang Ning watched his movements, and after the doctor gave up his seat, he immediately took his place, stood in front of the cage, and played with Li Zi for a while.
...for a while.
I couldn't bear to leave and couldn't even move my feet.
Finally, under the doctor's advice, I fed it a cat strip.
"It likes you very much." The doctor stood beside Fang Ning and smiled: "Compared to the cat, the owner's company during treatment may be more comforting to it."
"Eh? Is that so?" Fang Ning blinked in surprise: "Does it treat me as its master now?"
"certainly."
"So cute." Fang Ning smiled, his eyes curved into crescents, and decided to stay with Li Zi for a while longer.
So he stayed for another half an hour, and when it was really time to leave, he was reluctant to leave, looking back every few steps, and even sighed before leaving.
Thinking that Fang Ning couldn't bear to part with the kitten, the doctor comforted him, "You can come over anytime you want to see it."
"...It's OK at night. We're on duty until 2 a.m. Do you want to add me on WeChat?"
Fang Ning shook his head. This was not what he was sighing about at all.
Instead, he was about to go out to meet Shen Xun.
I wonder if he's still waiting outside...
Fang Ning hoped that he had not waited, and would have gone back long ago, but she also felt that Shen Xun would definitely not leave so easily.
"Alas." Fang Ning sighed again.
doctor:"……"
The doctor held his cell phone with a confused expression.
-
But in the end, WeChat still added him.
When it was really, really, really time to leave, Fang Ning said that his shaking head just now did not mean he was refusing to add the doctor on WeChat. He really wanted to add the doctor on WeChat because this way he could communicate about Li Zi's condition at any time.
Fang Ning spoke very seriously, which made the doctor laugh.
Finally, the two of them successfully added each other's contact information, and the doctor sent Fang Ning away. But when he walked to the front desk, Fang Ning, who had just been chatting and laughing with him, suddenly froze on his face and stopped.
"You, you're still here." Fang Ning was a little fool. He was so shocked that he asked subconsciously.
Shen Xun: “…”
Shen Xun felt a little hurt.
It's very sad, but after thinking about it carefully, I feel that there is nothing wrong with Fang Ning doing this.
Because he was the little emperor, he could make any decision. The abandoned slaves could only reflect on themselves and wonder if they had done something wrong or if they had not done something well enough that the little emperor decided to abandon them.
How could I be qualified to question him?
You can't get angry, you can only reflect on what you did wrong.
Therefore, he should not feel hurt and sad now. He must be thinking about what he did not satisfy Fang Ning, which is why Fang Ning wanted to avoid him.
Is it because of the bad expression?
A certain expressionless face tried to change its expression and revealed a "self-proclaimed" friendly smile.
Fang Ning: “…”
Shen Xun is now also a master of self-PUA.
But... Fang Ning was very happy.
He became more confident after listening to Shen Xun's inner voice, and felt that Shen Xun's idea was completely correct. Everyone should be like Shen Xun!
Review your own behavior first, and check if you have done anything wrong, instead of looking for trouble with him right away!
I would like to criticize two other people in particular!
It was obviously Li Jie and Lu Mingyu who were wrong. They came all the way to catch him and bully him, which made him stressed out.
How could he get used to being in trouble and then not dare to come out, thus ignoring Shen Xun and letting Shen Xun wait for him outside for so long?
It's totally wrong.
Shen Xun is very good!
At this moment, Fang Ning completely forgot that she was scared by Shen Xun in the dormitory and didn't dare to look at him directly. She just thought that Shen Xun was a very good and honest person.
Shen Xun is really honest and decent.
——After passing through everyone, the label of honesty returned to the person at the beginning.
So Fang Ning took the initiative to explain to him: "...I was just accompanying the cat."
"The cat is sick."
"Have you been waiting for me for a long time?"
Shen Xun was stunned.
[Baby, you are so cute.] 】
[No explanation needed, I'm willing to do anything.] 】
Fang Ning scratched his cheek.
"Not long." Shen Xun paused before answering him.
His voice was a bit cold, but he deliberately lowered it when talking to Fang Ning: "I came here because I have something to do. I'll wait for you after I finish it."
"Not long."
In fact, I waited for two hours.
Fang Ning said "oh" and was a little curious: "What's the matter?"
"Come and see the rescued kitten." Shen Xun told him.
"Ah? You rescued a kitten!" What a surprise, it's hard to imagine that Shen Xun is so caring.
After all, he looks really cold.
"Yeah." Shen Xun nodded: "I saw it on the road a few days ago, so I took it to the pet hospital."
"Wow~" Fang Ning exclaimed in admiration, and his favorability towards Shen Xun increased by +1 after a long time.
He didn't think at all about why Shen Xun would send the rescued stray cats and dogs to this pet hospital. Shen Xun's school was in one district and his home was in another district. Why would he come to such an unrelated place to rescue kittens and dogs?
He now only felt that Shen Xun was really caring, different from the other two, and asked enthusiastically: "Then can I go see the stray cats you rescued?"
"Okay." Shen Xun nodded: "Of course."
After agreeing, he raised his eyes and looked at the pet doctor who was still standing beside Fang Ning.
doctor:"……"
He also knew Shen Xun, who brought a litter of kittens here the day before yesterday. It was through him that they arranged for hospitalization and deposited a large sum of money.
I didn't expect that these two people actually knew each other.
"Doctor Meng." Shen Xun called him coldly, "Can I come over now?"
"Of course." The doctor pushed up his glasses and moved aside to make way: "This way."
-
Shen Xun rescued a mother cat who gave birth in the sewer and her five kittens.
The tiny kittens were just born, their eyes were not open yet and their fur was very short, making them look like little black mice.
But the ears are so pink.
…and very cute too!
Fang Ning propped his hands on his knees and looked at the family of six in the cage with bright eyes. He resisted the urge to reach out and touch them. "They are really small."
Shen Xun: "Just three days old."
Fang Ning: “Wow~”
"They are all tabby catkins."
Shen Xun: “Yeah.”
Fang Ning stared at it for a long time before reluctantly looking away.
Shen Xun stood beside him.
Fang Ning was looking at the cat, and Shen Xun was looking at him.
The almost obsessed gaze licked Fang Ning's entire face with his eyes.
From the forehead to the cheeks, to the snow-white tips of the ears, no part was left out.
Not until he noticed Fang Ning raising his head did he lower his eyes in a restrained manner.
"Are you going to raise so many kittens?" Fang Ning was very curious.
Shen Xun: "I think we'll look for adoption."
“Ohhhh!”
Yes.
How can we support so many?
"I heard from the front desk that you also rescued a kitten?" Shen Xun asked.
"Yeah, yeah." Fang Ning nodded: "I ran into it in the community. A few primary school students were bullying it. I saw it." Speaking of his heroic rescue of the cat, Fang Ning was like a chatterbox. He told Shen Xun the whole story from beginning to end, and finally concluded: "I scared those primary school students away, and then I brought it to the hospital. It's also a kitten, a small calico."
"That's it." Shen Xun nodded: "Very impressive."
【Kind baby.】 】
[The King of Cats.] 】
"..." Fang Ning scratched his forehead.
He really had no way to resist the sincere Shen Xun.
Completely different from Lu Mingyu's deliberate flattery, Shen Xun was very much like the kind of honest person who only spoke the truth.
Lu Mingyu still had to distinguish between the real and the fake, but Chen Xun didn't have to at all.
Fang Ning was very happy to be coaxed.
Although I looked a little embarrassed on the surface, I was actually very happy in my heart.
"It's not that serious...but the kitten has feline infectious peritonitis and needs to be hospitalized for a while."
"I don't know if it can be cured..." He paused, then quickly waved his hand and looked at the doctor on the other side: "I don't mean to question your medical skills."
"I know." The doctor smiled and said, "Mr. Fang, you are just worried about the kitten. It's human nature."
Yes, yes, yes, that’s it.
but.
"It feels so awkward to call me Mr. Fang." Fang Ning, who is still a few months away from graduating from college, is still unable to adapt to the way people in society address him.
He felt very strange.
"Is that so? Then can I call you Xiao Ning?" When Li Zi was being hospitalized, the owner's information also needed to be entered at the same time. He knew Fang Ning's name.
Fang Ning: “?”
ah?
Is this too intimate?
Before Fang Ning could comment, Shen Xun looked at the doctor.
The cold eyes without a trace of warmth inexplicably make people feel a chill in their hearts.
It's freezing cold.
But when he turned to look at Fang Ning, he returned to his usual self.
Although his expression was still cold, it was not difficult to see that he was paying careful attention to his facial expressions in front of Fang Ning.
He directly drew Fang Ning's attention away: "Can I go see your kitten?"
"Hmm? Okay, okay." Fang Ning nodded and quickly forgot what the doctor had just said.
-
After the two of them finished looking at Fang Ning's pet, they finally left the pet hospital at 7:30 in the evening.
It was already dark outside. When Fang Ning came out, he asked casually, "I'm going back. You—"
Before he could finish his words, he suddenly stopped.
Because he realized later that Li Jie next door and Lu Mingyu downstairs, could it be that Shen Xun also... wanted him to take him to rent a house?
Recalling the gossipy looks from the property management, Fang Ning felt so embarrassed that his scalp went numb and he started scratching his toes.
Fortunately, things did not turn out as he expected.
"It's okay, I'll drive home." Shen Xun said, "I don't live far away."
【It’s only a two-hour drive. 】
Fang Ning: “……?”
Fang Ning was stunned.
"What about you?" Shen Xun asked.
"I, I don't live far away either." Fang Ning said quickly, "Just past the intersection ahead."
"Okay." Shen Xun nodded: "Do you want me to take you there?"
“No, no!” Fang Ning refused: “I can just walk back by myself.”
Shen Xun: “Okay.”
【well. 】
What a heavy sigh.
Fang Ning: “…”
He appears indifferent on the surface, but in fact he is deeply hurt.
Shen Xun is truly two-faced.
But it's pretty good.
At least he didn't make things difficult for Fang Ning.
Fang Ning pursed her lips.
The two said goodbye at the door, and Fang Ning walked towards home, but after taking two steps he turned back and saw Shen Xun still standing there looking at him.
Seeing him looking over, she said softly, "Hmm?"
"I have a question for you." After thinking for a while, Fang Ning asked his question.
"I left a note and walked away suddenly. Are you really not angry?"
Although he had heard Shen Xun's inner voice, Fang Ning still couldn't understand him.
Perhaps the other two felt that what he did was wrong, but Shen Xun was the only one who didn't think so.
Fang Ning felt that it was correct, but at the same time, he was a little confused.
He was afraid that Shen Xun was pretending, so after hesitating for a long time, he still wanted to ask.
“…”
"What's there to be angry about?" Shen Xun was quiet for a few seconds before speaking, his tone still calm: "Although I am indeed a little sad, I have no right to be angry."
"Fang Ning, I'm not yours."
"I like you very much, I have a crush on you, but we are not dating, you don't need to report anything to me."
Fang Ning was stunned.
Because Shen Xun's words were so sincere.
I wasn't trying to coax him or act like a green tea girl or anything like that, he really thought so.
