Chapter 140
[It is bad luck for a dog to fall into your hands. ]
[You love swimming so much, why don’t you go down by yourself. ]
Water was still dripping from the French bulldog's body.
It was soft under Wen Youning's hand and kept spitting out water.
But at least the water was spit out.
The man murmured, "There are actually dogs that can't swim."
Dog paddling, isn’t it just the way a dog swims?
In the darkness of the night, the French bulldog couldn't help but roll his eyes.
'You fool!'
"Wang has said it several times, but Wang won't go on."
"You picked up Wang and threw him down! You dog."
'You are the dog!'
…
The French bulldog doesn't have the energy to curse, but his mind keeps quarreling.
"Not to mention that it's a French bulldog, there are many long-legged dogs that can't swim, and there are also dogs that are afraid of water." Wen Youning sighed, "It was just a little bit away from drowning."
The man was confused at first, and couldn't quite grasp the key points of the various professional terms. But when Wen Youning unraveled the mystery and condensed the final answer into a short sentence, he suddenly understood.
“First mate! First mate!” the man wailed and rushed towards the French bulldog whose legs were straight on the shore, “Daddy, hold me—”
It was just that the sky was dark, the ground was slippery, and the soft soil was soaked with water, which was even more terrible.
The man rushed over and stumbled, "Eh eh——?!"
——'Plop!'
After a slide, the man disappeared on the shore.
Wen Youning: "..."
The French bulldog looked straight ahead.
【? He actually went down. 】
Fortunately, the water here is not very deep for humans, and the man stood up by himself on the bottom of the artificial lake.
He wiped the water off his face, "Puff."
The French bulldogs that had just been rescued were stunned.
There seemed to be a '?' hovering over my head.
'What have you been doing?'
'Foolish man.'
Wen Youning shook the dog leash in her hand, "Do you need help?"
"No need." The man waded up by himself. There was a circle of irregular pebbles on the edge of the artificial lake. He supported himself with his hands and then sat up with the help of the buoyancy of the water.
The man asked, "Is it all right, mate?"
Wen Youning shook the water off her fingertips, "She choked on some water. Go back and observe. If there's any problem, send her to the doctor immediately."
"Okay, thank you." The man wrung out his clothes, squatted beside the first mate, and stroked his wet head. "Are you here to take your dog swimming too? What kind of dog is this? It looks really handsome, as strong as a bear."
"Swimming is prohibited here." Wen Youning stood up and said, "It's getting colder at night, be careful."
The man said indifferently: "It's okay, I exercise regularly and my physical fitness is pretty good. A little cold wind is not a threat to me."
Wen Youning said calmly: "I'm talking about dog."
[That's right! I'm worried about the dog, it has nothing to do with you.]
【Hahahaha, Teacher Wen’s taunt value is maxed out.】
[Having good intentions but not using your brain to raise a dog can be a disaster. 】
——"What do you do?"
The strong light from the security guard's flashlight shone over, onto the man who was still squatting on the ground, and also swept upwards to Wen Youning.
He hesitated and asked, "Teacher Wen?"
"It's me." Wen Youning raised her chin slightly, "He violated the swimming rules. Let's see how to deal with him."
"Okay, Teacher Wen, are you okay?" The security guard took the intercom and called someone to help while walking towards Wen Youning.
Wen Youning shook her head. "It's okay. I'll go back first."
"Okay, leave it to me." The security guard waved towards Wen Youning.
The man squatted on the ground like a quail.
How did I meet the staff?
Finished.
---
After returning from Africa, Wen Youning's daily routine was not disrupted.
It might be because Lancelot often stayed up late to broadcast live and rested during the day, so his daily routine was very irregular and it was a mess.
What is most difficult to adapt to is returning to the domestic winter from the year-round hot environment.
Especially as the Spring Festival was approaching, there was another light snow outside.
The floor heating in Wen Youning's home is quite durable, but the indoor temperature is dry and her throat is sore when she wakes up.
'drop'
The air humidifier is set to a timer switch.
Wen Youning poured in purified water, then turned around and got another cup of warm water.
The little tabby cat sleeps on a mat on the ground. It prefers a warm nest. After Wen Youning gets up, it usually moves to the nest and continues to sleep.
Wen Youning put on a coat and opened the door a crack.
The dogs in the yard were all lying in their kennels.
Wen Youning reached out to catch it, and the small snowflakes melted instantly when they touched her warm palm. "It's so light that there's not even a speck of snow on the ground."
It disappears as soon as it hits the ground.
"The weather forecast says that the temperature will drop in the next few days and there will be a heavy snow." Lin Baiyu squatted in front of the doghouse and moved all the warm dog food to the door so that they could eat it by sticking their heads out.
"The temperature has dropped again." Wen Youning sniffed and went over to help.
[The snow here is already up to our knees.]
[It will be even colder when the snow melts. ]
[Will Teacher Wen do a live broadcast during the Chinese New Year? 】
Wen Youning reached into the doghouse, felt the temperature inside, and rubbed the puppy's head. "No live broadcasts during the Chinese New Year. The specific holiday time... will depend on the situation at that time."
"If you have any questions during the suspension period, you can send me a private message. Emergency treatment will be given priority."
Lin Baiyu stirred the fresh food and asked casually, "How did you celebrate the New Year in previous years?"
"Just, have a New Year's Eve dinner." Wen Youning is busy with work and is usually alone all year round. Chinese New Year is a time for family reunions, and it is more lively for her to work and stay with the little animals.
She didn't feel anything about the ritual of the New Year.
It was like this before she traveled through the book. After she traveled through the book, she did have a "family", but... she had no contact with them after Wen Youning took control of the company. She had the leverage over those two people, so they didn't dare to rush into it.
After much thought, I feel more comfortable living with the little animals.
Wen Youning hugged the rock wolf Rua who squeezed over and asked him, "What about you?"
"As for me," Lin Boyu was also busy. He had received elite education since childhood and had non-stop New Year courses. He also went abroad for further studies, so he had less of a sense of the New Year atmosphere. After entering the company, he had more work to do and had no time to sleep, let alone take a vacation.
Lin Baiyu pondered for a while, as if trying to find some memories about the Chinese New Year, but... he shrugged and said, "I didn't celebrate the Chinese New Year."
"Um?"
"Yeah." Lin Baiyu nodded. He and his existing blood relatives were at loggerheads with each other. They sat down at the same table and ate peacefully, all they were thinking about was how to kill each other.
"I don't have many friends to spend time with." Lin Boyu changed the subject and said, "But I can spend this year with Yanlang."
"Woof!" The rock wolf suddenly looked up and glared at him.
No!
'Who wants to follow you!'
'go! '
The word "resistance" is written on his face.
Lin Baiyu raised his eyebrows and said to Wen Youning, relying on the fact that the rock wolf couldn't pounce on him directly, "You're not going home for the New Year, and you still want to stay at Teacher Wen's house?"
[Hahahaha, the rock wolf is so pissed off. ]
[Lin Baiyu: I can't stay, do you think I will let you stay? ]
[Almost let the Rock Wolf have a good New Year. 】
[It's a pity that I can't stay, but it's even more heartbreaking that Rock Wolf can stay. 】
[When Mr. Lin thought about Yanlang staying to spend New Year's Eve with Teacher Wen, he felt so angry that his teeth itched. ]
…
"Woof!" The rock wolf squeezed through the small gap between Wen Youning and the doghouse door, determined to give Lin Boyu some red.
Wen Youning put her arms around its neck and said, "Don't fight. Let him go."
"Woo..." The rock wolf rubbed against Wen Youning, staring at Lin Baiyu.
you say.
"What?" Wen Youning held the rock wolf in her arms and rested her chin on its head. "Let Mr. Lin speak?"
"I won't say it." Lin Boyu didn't know what Yanlang wanted him to say, but it would be fine if he didn't say it.
The rock wolf took a sudden step forward and tried to bite him again.
"Ah--ow," Wen Youning was originally kneeling on one knee, and was pulled down by this force, becoming unsteadily seated.
There are mats at the door of the doghouse, so it’s not too cold to sit on.
The rock wolf retracted its claws and rubbed Wen Youning with its head, "Ah..."
"It's okay." Wen Youning brought Yanlang to his lap and rubbed it. He raised his hand to press the live broadcast device and turned the volume of the microphone to the bottom. "Mr. Lin, if you are not busy at work on New Year's Eve, would you consider coming over to help me prepare the New Year's Eve dinner?"
Lin Baiyu was still staring at Yanlang. He nodded without realizing what he had heard. Then he suddenly froze, his pupils suddenly contracted, and even his breathing stagnated.
Wen Youning glanced sideways and curved her eyes, "Mr. Lin?"
"Considering it." Lin Baiyu's expression changed visibly. "What I mean is... of course. I'm very happy to help. I'm good at cooking, whether it's Chinese or Western food, and I've also tried some small dishes..."
When people are anxious, they tend to speak without thinking.
The mouth speaks in front, but the brain follows behind.
Lin Baiyu spoke faster and faster, but under Wen Youning's smiling eyes, his ears became redder and his voice became softer. "Well, anyway, asking me to cook the New Year's Eve dinner is like finding a chef who is good at cooking a variety of dishes. It's a good deal."
"Woof!" The rock wolf used as a pillow for Wen Youning, protecting her from Lin Baiyu getting close.
Lin Baiyu was in a good mood now. He didn't care about it and just focused on chatting with Wen Youning, "Where are you going to spend New Year's Eve this year?"
"Let's live in the new home." Wen Youning thought for a moment and said, "I've been moving my luggage over in the past few days. Some custom-made furniture and soft furnishings have also arrived. We can move in before New Year's Eve."
After all, it is not a new house. The old house of the Wen family occupies the exclusive homestead and is fully equipped with all kinds of furniture and furnishings.
Wen Youning doesn't need to prepare anything and can just move in with your luggage.
However, since this is where he will live for a long time in the future, Wen Youning still wants to adjust the decoration according to his preferences.
Where you live should be based on your own comfort.
Before the snow gets heavy, move all the remaining things over there, and take the small animals in the yard with you.
"Okay, I'll take care of the rest." Lin Baiyu asked, "Are there any requirements for seating at the New Year's Eve dinner?"
Wen Youning smiled and said, "No, just sit wherever you want. It's just the two of us. The rest of the seats are for the little animals."
At that time, I will make some New Year’s Eve dinner suitable for small animals.
You can't do much with the materials, but you can make the appearance more novel.
Wen Youning snapped his fingers, "Also leave room for Yogurt and Lancelot."
The kind that you would use for an iPad video call.
This was her first formal New Year.
"No problem." Lin Baiyu had already started to plan the New Year's Eve dinner step by step in his mind. "I wonder when your zoo's operating license will be issued. Then we can take over the white lion."
Wen Youning said, "It's already down."
"Business license?"
"Yes." Wen Youning put the last bowl of dog food in, stood up and patted his clothes, "Come on, I'll take you to see it."
The review of wildlife business licenses is becoming increasingly strict.
There are rumors that it will no longer be issued.
Most of them are just skirting the line, applying for business licenses for zoos or botanical gardens.
To this end, Wen Youning used a lot of connections. Fortunately, she had a wide range of personal and animal connections, so she made the construction plan directly on the Wen family's old house.
In addition, with the status of the Wen's Group's highest shareholder and the Lin's Group as the guarantor, there were no difficulties in obtaining the operating license for the wildlife park. It just took some time.
Wen Youning started applying for it when she sent the white lion back to Africa, but she only received it now.
However, it is normal to go through the necessary procedures after all the information has been submitted, so it is time-consuming.
Compared with some botanical gardens and animal parks that are still in the process of applying, this is already fast.
Wen Youning took out the business license and flicked it with her fingertips, "We are one step closer to bringing the white lion home."
