Chapter 147
Wen Youning raised her hand, stroked his collar with her fingertips to wipe away the snowflakes, and sat sideways on the passenger seat.
Lin Baiyu was slightly stunned. Before he could come to his senses, he heard a voice coming from inside the car, "Not bad."
His eyes slowly opened wide, the cold wind blew the snowflakes down in front of him, his consciousness was briefly distracted for a while and he chuckled, "I think it's not bad either."
【? !!! 】
[Where is the Rock Wolf! Where is the Rock Wolf? ! Is there a Rock Wolf to take care of it? Please take care of it, Rock Wolf! ]
[Hehe, I felt from the beginning that it was not right for Mr. Lin to work for Teacher Wen. He obviously had some selfish motives!]
[Why do you think so... A CEO of a listed company worth over 100 million yuan, regardless of whether the company has meetings or not, he just cooks in an apron. Anyone watching the live broadcast can tell something is wrong.]
…
Wen Youning's fingertips were hovering on the button to turn off the live broadcast device, and she was stunned when this barrage of comments popped up.
Is that so?
She let Lin Boyu feed small animals at the beginning, mainly because of the rock wolves.
I didn't consider going in other directions.
Because of the direction of her work, Wen Youning has come into contact with many people from both the political and business circles. Many rich and powerful people like to raise some ferocious beasts in their backyards. There are also many leaders in various industries who want to work for her to learn from her experience.
Wen Youning is actually quite vague about many of her identities.
Close the car door.
Lin Baiyu walked briskly through the snow to the passenger seat. The car was heated. "I have almost moved everything. I sent the remaining things in the room over this morning. Except for Rock Wolf and Little Lihua, the rest of the puppies have been placed in the villa."
"I wanted to pick you up after get off work and go back to the villa, but they refused to follow me." Lin Baiyu held the steering wheel and paused before saying, "At first, the little tabby even jumped on me, the rock wolf barked twice, and the dried fish went down again."
Lin Baiyu guessed: "I suspect that Yanlang said something to Yugan."
It's like... he's unreliable, don't follow him or something like that.
Not to mention Little Lihua, Yanlang simply didn't believe him.
"Even though I told Yanlang several times that you would come over at night just to move them to another place, Yanlang firmly believed..." Lin Baiyu sighed, "I will use this name to trick it away and secretly spend the New Year with it."
Wen Youning: "..."
Yanlang knew very well what kind of person Lin Boyu was, so he was hesitant about whether to believe him.
Lin Boyu, who is familiar with Yanlang, can always guess Yanlang's true thoughts from the details of his eyes and movements.
It is also a two-way rush.
Even in the end he couldn't take the rock wolf away.
Barrage: [……]
【It’s better to be cautious. 】
[Hahahaha, Mr. Lin is a completely cunning villain in front of Yanlang. ]
The hospital is very close to the courtyard.
It was snowing heavily, so Lin Boyu drove very slowly.
A Maybach S was parked in front of the courtyard, and the secretary was cleaning the roof with snow on his head.
I don't know how long we stopped. There was only sporadic snow falling on the car, which was quickly swept away by the secretary the next second.
He shook the duster in his hand and noticed the car parked behind him, "Boss Lin."
"Yes." Lin Baiyu asked, "Has Yanlang got on the bus?"
"No, he has been staying inside and has not come out." The secretary said, "From time to time, I can hear the barking of dogs and the meowing of cats. I suspect they are plotting something."
"Rock Wolf." Wen Youning opened the door and got out of the car. The doors of the courtyard and the house were open. When he heard the voice, Little Lihua popped his head out first.
"Meow..." Before he could even say hello, he was taken back by the rock wolf.
Little Beaver: "Woo!"
It’s my sister!
"Woo," the Rock Wolf analyzed rationally.
It could be a fake voice in the video that tricked you out.
"Meow?" The little tabby girl was confused and bewildered.
Is this possible?
This is too bad.
Wen Youning was so amused listening to the two fur balls talking that she pushed open the gate and walked in. "It's me, not the fake voice on the video. Didn't I tell you before that we were moving?"
Maybe she didn't confirm that she was leaving today, so Yanlang didn't believe it.
Because the day she moves the last bit of stuff to the villa depends on when Ramen is discharged from the hospital.
She was definitely leaving the zoo later than Ramen.
Therefore, there is no definite time yet.
The two cubs at home seemed to realize that the sound was real, and they stuck their heads out, one above and one below, overlapping each other.
There is a feeling of carefully sizing up the enemy.
Only after seeing clearly that the person outside was indeed Wen Youning did Yu Gan and Yan Lang run out.
"Meow!" The little tabby cat took a few steps and jumped up.
The good thing about winter for kittens who don’t like the cold is that people wear thick clothes and can crawl around freely.
Wen Youning caught one and then picked up the other.
She couldn't pick up the rock wolf like she did before, so she simply squatted down and hugged the big dog tightly, "Let's go, I'll take you to your new home."
Lin Boyu held an umbrella behind her and said, "Take the secretary's car. The McLaren doesn't have a back seat, so there's no room for the Rock Wolf."
Most sports cars have two seats, and when the rock wolf sits in the car, it takes up more space than an adult.
Even if he lay on Wen Youning's legs and tried to curl up and sit properly, he would still block the right rearview mirror.
[Interview, Mr. Lin, why do you choose this car when you go out? ]
[The carefulness is written all over her face! 】
[Didn’t you see that he specially asked his secretary to drive another car here? Isn’t Mr. Lin’s intention obvious? ]
"Woo..." The rock wolf bit Wen Youning's sleeve and lowered its head into her arms.
Together.
"Together?" Wen Youning glanced at McLaren, hugged the rock wolf and stroked its fur, then looked up at Lin Boyu and said, "Mr. Lin, I will take the secretary's car with the rock wolf. Are you going directly to the company?"
"..." Lin Baiyu, holding an umbrella, looked at each other in silence.
The veins on the hand holding the umbrella were bulging, his cheeks were tense, and his teeth were clenched tightly.
He lowered his eyes and met the rock wolf's unyielding gaze, letting you run back by yourself!
Wen Youning said, "Let's go, get in the car first."
The snow was so heavy that I felt like I was being buried if I stood outside for a while.
Wen Youning opened the rear door of the Maybach. The rock wolf shook its fur and jumped on. She rubbed the little tabby cat and shook it, then placed the kitten next to the rock wolf.
There were two boxes on the seats in the back row, and Wen Youning couldn't fit in, so she backed up, closed the door, and got in from the passenger seat.
Wen Youning fastened her seat belt, "Secretary Sun, you..."
The voice stopped abruptly when he saw the person sitting in the driver's seat.
Wen Youning raised an eyebrow, looked past the driver, and noticed outside the car window that the McLaren slowly passed the Maybach and drove out.
Lin Baiyu looked straight ahead and explained seriously, "Secretary Sun has something to do and can't take you there. I asked him to go first."
"That's really unfortunate." Wen Youning said with a smile.
Lin Baiyu nodded, "Yeah, it's almost the New Year, and we're all busy."
[Secretary Sun: Yes, yes, yes, I am busy. I am the busiest.]
[The president is not anxious, but the secretary is? ]
[Wait, Mr. Wen, put down your live broadcast equipment and talk nicely! ]
"I'll have to take a few more days off this time." Wen Youning held up the live broadcast equipment and walked around the car. "Okay, after watching Rock Wolf and Little Lihua, see you all bye."
[Will you broadcast live during the Chinese New Year? 】
[Wai? Wai! Is anyone there? Wai! ? ]
No response was received.
The anchor is offline.
---
There are many things to do during the Chinese New Year.
When combined with moving, cleaning and decorating the new home, it becomes busy and messy.
Wen Youning really can't spare the time to do live broadcast.
Apart from logging on on time every day to check private messages to see if there are any emergencies, everything can wait, but emergency treatment cannot.
It was a short and busy time, and it was only on New Year's Eve that some relief came.
Wen Youning sat on the second-floor balcony, flipping through the couplets placed aside.
It was just written not long ago and the ink dried quickly.
Customs vary from place to place, and the time for the New Year’s Eve dinner and the time for posting Spring Festival couplets are also different.
Wen Youning usually posts it on the morning of New Year's Eve.
She shook the couplet in her hand and looked down. The yard was a sea of red and the garden was full of flowers that did not belong to this season. They were not really planted, but more like landscaping in the garden.
Because we decided in advance to spend New Year's Eve at the Wen family's old house.
Various small decorations that match the festive atmosphere of the New Year have been matched.
There are two "Fu" characters on the iron gates at the main entrance.
Red lanterns were hung on the street lamps on both sides of the road up the mountain.
The Wen family's old house does not cover a large area, but the expanded area is very wide, and the mountains and hills are all within this range.
Anyway, this piece of land is enough for Lancelot to run.
After all, the Wen family’s ancestors were once rich.
Over the years, descendants have gradually contributed money to repair it, and it has retained some of its ancient charm and cleverly integrated modern Chinese architecture.
Although it is called a villa, in fact the courtyard in the center is only two stories high.
There is a stream in the yard that flows down from the mountain.
It snowed again in winter, and a thick layer of ice had already formed on the stream. When you brush away the snow, you can still see the fish swimming in it.
"Dried fish." Wen Youning looked at the kitten running through the snow, "Come up after playing for a while, be careful not to catch a cold."
The fur of the tabby cat is not as good as that of the rock wolf, and the Caucasian dog has a double coat, which can adapt to the temperature in cold areas. It doesn't care about a mere snowy day.
"Eat something. The New Year's Eve dinner will have to wait a while. I put some clothes on it." Lin Baiyu came upstairs and put down a tray of snacks. The teapot was filled with lemonade instead of tea. "How long can the thick clothes last?"
Wen Youning: "White? I thought it was just snow frozen on it."
The tabby cat is different from ordinary domestic cats. It is smart, flexible and agile and likes sports.
Previously, the range of activities at home in the zoo yard was limited. Now, it would take little Lihua several hours to run a complete circle in the yard of the Wen family's old house. If it went to the woods outside, it might take even longer.
However, Wen Youning couldn't help but worry about leaving the little tabby cat outside for a long time in the winter.
Wen Youning put his arm on the guardrail and shouted down: "Yanlang, keep an eye on the dried fish."
"Woo," the rock wolf raised its head and responded softly.
Um.
"Meow?" The white kitten that was digging around in the thick snow blinked blankly when it heard the noise and tried to raise its head to break out of the snow.
What meow?
Lin Baiyu poured her a glass of lemonade, "Warm water cools quickly, drink it as soon as possible."
Wen Youning picked up the written couplet and drank the lemonade in one gulp. "No more, I'm going to post the couplet."
"Done?"
"Yeah." Wen Youning took a bite of a tea-flavored biscuit and went downstairs. "I'll put it on quickly. It will be over soon."
Lin Baiyu closed the window on the second floor, followed him out and said, "I'll help you."
In a greenhouse old house, the decoration is like that of a house with many doors of different sizes.
Wen Youning regarded the double door in the center as the front door of his house by default, and pasted the stickers he wrote there. There were also stickers for other doors as well, which were all purchased in advance.
The rock wolf lay in the snow, occasionally raising its claws to step on the protruding snow. It would retract its claws when it heard a "meow". More often, it would follow the undulating snow, letting the dried fish dart around.
It stretched, looked at the two people at the door, and slowly narrowed its eyes.
"Is this tape okay?" Lin Boyu tried it and it didn't seem very sticky.
"Yes. If the glue is too sticky it will damage the door." Wen Youning rubbed the door with his fingertips. Couplets are replaced once a year, so they don't need to be glued too tightly.
Lin Baiyu nodded, put the double-sided tape on the back of the couplet, tore off the excess paper and handed it to Wen Youning who was standing on the chair.
The hand that fell naturally rested on the back of the chair, protecting her silently.
——“Woof!”
Lin Baiyu moved his fingertips, "..."
Don’t shout!
Lin Baiyu turned around and emphasized: "We agreed that we are not allowed to fight during the New Year."
The first Chinese New Year was of great significance. In order to avoid the New Year's bell from ringing in battle, the result was discussed and decided.
Rock Wolf also agreed.
As expected, after Lin Baiyu finished speaking, the rock wolf became quiet.
As if he couldn't bear to watch it anymore, the Rock Wolf got up and left.
Wen Youning asked: "Is this correct?"
Lin Baiyu retracted his gaze and tilted his head slightly to observe, "Yes. Very good."
'Pah'
Something fell to the ground.
Lin Baiyu subconsciously lowered his head, and the rock wolf stepped on him with one claw, "roll, roll, roll, roll--"
"!!!"
Sooner or later I will smash this broken button of yours.
"Haha, why are you quarreling again?" Wen Youning came down after putting up the couplets and touched the cool furry dog. "Are you hungry?"
The rock wolf licked her palm and said, "Woo..."
No.
Wen Youning held its face with both hands and rubbed it, "Go and play, dinner will be served soon."
Lin Baiyu followed up and said, "Yeah, that's right. The dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner are almost ready, and there are only a few vegetarian dishes left. Just stir-fry them in the hot pan."
"Come on, I'll help you." Wen Youning walked in and headed towards the kitchen.
"No, I..."
Wen Youning put on the apron and twisted the rope with both hands, "Help me tie it."
Lin Baiyu said without hesitation: "Coming."
---
The New Year’s Eve dinner is said to be simple to prepare.
But all the dishes were served on the table, filling up a whole large table.
Wen Youning held up two iPads.
Africa does not celebrate the New Year and there is a time difference, but the nature reserve in Bai Minghui is open as usual.
Bai Minghui answered quickly, "Happy New Year, Teacher Wen!"
"Happy New Year." Wen Youning sent him a New Year red envelope from the dialog box.
The video call was arranged in advance at this time, and Bai Minghui was already there waiting to answer Wen Youning's video call.
After the call was connected, he directly gave the iPad to Bai Shi.
Lancelot used this frequently to communicate with Wen Youning. He brought it over and found a comfortable place under the tree to lie down. "Woo!"
"Hi! Happy New Year, Lancelot." Wen Youning smiled and adjusted her Bluetooth headphones. Bai Shi didn't understand the meaning of Chinese New Year, but next time, she should be able to celebrate the New Year with Lancelot.
Lancelot placed the iPad between his two front paws so that he could see her by looking down.
Wen Youning tapped the iPad screen next door, which did not show the South China tiger, and muttered, "Is Yogurt not at home?"
"Ah!" What appeared before yogurt was... an unknown prey.
It hit the iPad directly.
Wen Youning touched its head through the screen and said, "So it went hunting. It's just right, since it's time for dinner."
"Here it comes!" Lin Boyu brought the last dish of honey lobster, opened the back of the whole lobster, and it occupied the most central position as soon as it came up.
At the round table, each animal has its own place, with its own small bowl in front of it.
The food on the table was not edible, so Wen Youning prepared some delicious New Year-themed food for them.
Wen Youning smiled and raised her red wine glass, "Happy New Year."
Lin Baiyu picked up the wine glass and said, "Happy New Year."
The round table was too big and the iPad would block her view if she sat opposite, so Lin Boyu simply sat next to her.
Wen Youning felt relaxed. She took a sip of red wine, put down the glass and said, "I also prepared a few red envelopes for everyone."
"I'll bring the Lancelot and yogurt portions to you later." Wen Youning went to the kitchen and pushed out the cart. The red envelopes were made of edible glutinous rice paper, and they were all newly made teething sticks of different sizes.
It is allocated according to the size of the animals.
The rock wolf was naturally the largest one. Wen Youning picked up the big red envelope and gave it to it, "Come, rock wolf."
The big red envelope is half the size of a rock wolf, and the homemade chew stick inside is enough for the rock wolf to chew for a long time.
"The dried fish is in the shape of dried fish." Wen Youning shook the red envelope, and there were several dried fish inside.
"Meow!" The little tabby jumped off her legs with the red envelope in its mouth and opened it on the ground.
Wen Youning held up the red envelope and said, "Give it to me."
"Chirp!" The red kestrel swooped down from above, grabbed the red envelope, and landed on the table.
"Little Black..."
"noob,"
Wen Youning gave out the red envelopes in her hand one after another.
Until the last furry one gets his red envelope.
Wen Youning clapped her hands. The snack red envelopes were made according to the number of small animals, just right, one for each.
The next moment, a paper red envelope appeared in front of her.
Wen Youning blinked slightly, followed the slightly trembling hand on the paper red envelope, and looked at the man beside her.
"This is……"
Lin Baiyu: "A black jade beaded silver wire ring."
Wen Youning curled her lips, "I mean, why did you suddenly think of giving me a red envelope? I'm not asking what's in the red envelope."
"Cough cough." Lin Baiyu's face flushed. He didn't drink the red wine, but he felt like he was choking in his throat.
The answer just now seemed like a confession made under nervousness.
"During the Chinese New Year, don't we all give red envelopes to cheer people up? Besides, I can't wear a women's ring. It's a family heirloom, so I have to keep it in a bank safe. What I mean is..." The temperature of the floor heating in the room made his ears hot. He tried to ask in a steady voice, "Do you want to try it on?"
Wen Youning's eyes moved slightly, and she raised her hand to cover the red envelope in his palm.
Lin Baiyu's breathing stagnated, and he immediately clasped his five fingers together, holding the red envelope across his palm, with his fingertips bent and interlocked with Wen Youning's fingers.
Next to it, a rock wolf was chewing a bone-shaped chew stick with its head raised and not moving.
After a while, it slowly narrowed its eyes.
"Woof!"
The rock wolf immediately let go of the chew stick, stood up, put its front paws on the sofa and opened its mouth to bite.
In a panic, the earphones fell out of Wen Youning's ears and automatically disconnected from the iPad.
Lin Baiyu held Wen Youning's hand and raised it up, and with one hand he pushed the big dog that was squeezing over, "Go away. Eat your food."
Unable to accurately find Lin Boyu's hand to bite among the interlocked fingers, the rock wolf let out a low "meow" in anxiety.
release.
release!
"Meow!" The little tabby cat jumped up to help.
"Ah?" The South China tiger was puzzled. What was that sound?
"Huh?" Lancelot scratched the screen.
who?
--"roar!"
Lancelot and Yogurt faced each other across the iPad.
'Pop'
The dogs in the room rushed forward, knocked over the iPad on the table, and placed its front side on the table.
The growl didn't stop.
"Hey, you guys—"
Before Wen Youning could finish her words, she and Lin Boyu were submerged in the furry sea.
