Homeless Home
It was nothing big. It was just that Yi Ning took care of the team's three meals a day for the past two days, and naturally blended in and became an outstanding non-staff member of Group B.
Everyone's name for her changed from Teacher Yi Ning to the affectionate Heining.
Just now, Nan Nan and her friends dropped a cat cage while moving it, nearly letting the kittens escape. Yi Ning immediately transformed into the cat king, meowing twice and commanding the stray kittens to return to their cages, earning Nan Nan and Yue Yue two crushes.
During the lunch break, Wu Siqi had her own lunch box in front of her, a small fan beside her, and a specially brewed coffee at hand. One couldn't help but sigh at how resourceful this woman was.
This was the first time since she entered the industry that she could prepare an event so easily. She didn't have to worry about anything. Once there was a problem, that guy would rush over with his short legs and solve the problem in a few words.
It wasn't something she couldn't handle, but since someone else had already done it, she didn't have to reinvent the wheel.
Seeing that the fan had messed up her hair, Yi Ning adjusted the angle of the fan and said, "Xiao Wu, why aren't you eating? Are the dishes today not to your liking?"
Wu Siqi glanced at her sideways and sighed heavily: It's so horrible, so horrible.
"Really don't like it? Then what do you want to eat? I'll go buy it now." Yi Ning stood up quickly.
"I didn't say anything, why do you imagine that?" Wu Siqi pulled her clothes and asked her to sit down. He tapped her forehead again, then picked up the spoon and started eating lunch.
"Xiao Wu~ It hurts, I need some air."
Yi Ning rubbed the place where she was hit and pulled her pants to act coquettishly.
Wu Siqi glanced at her calmly and said, "Be careful. If you have nothing to do, go over there and help. Let me have a peaceful meal."
Seeing that Xiaowu was about to get angry, Yi Ning immediately withdrew his restless hands, looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, and sat upright.
The event officially started at 7pm, and the time was tight and the task was heavy.
Wu Siqi ate his fill in a few bites and returned to the scene with his little follower to help.
Representatives and volunteers from various animal hospitals arrived one after another to sign in. In addition to cats and dogs, there were also exotic pets such as parrots, rabbits, hedgehogs, etc. that had been abandoned in the animal hospitals, all of which were placed in display cages.
Areas are divided by animal type. After the curtains are drawn, the mall gradually becomes more crowded. Children, returning from school, squat by the cages, whispering "mimi" and "woof woof." Their laughter and the animals' responses create a heartwarming melody.
Xu Tingting came over with a flyer and greeted with a smile: "Teacher, this event is really popular. I just heard a lot of people discussing it outside, and it seems that some people even came all the way from other places."
"It's okay," Wu Siqi handed her a bottle of water, "It's the result of everyone's hard work. Why don't you go home after get off work and come here to join in the fun?"
"I've always wanted to have a pet. Let's see if I can bring one home." Xu Tingting unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip.
Wu Siqi laughed: "Aren't you allergic? There are no hairless cats or dogs here."
"It doesn't have to be a cat or a dog. I think that little hedgehog is pretty cute." She pointed to the glass cabinet in the exotic pet area.
Wu Siqi let her take a look around and left with the registration form.
As soon as he left, Dai Xiaoxing followed and lowered his head to help organize the documents. When he looked up at Xu Tingting, his eyes flashed slightly, as if he was looking at her, or examining her.
She handed over the registration form: "If you want to adopt, you can fill out the form first to see the requirements."
"No, thank you. I'm an employee of the organizing company. I just came here to see the excitement." Xu Tingting smiled and waved her hand, with a look of tiredness from getting off work between her brows.
Nan Nan passed by pushing a speaker and turned around to call out, "Tingting?"
"Baby Nannan~" Xu Tingting waved with a smile.
Nan Nan raised an eyebrow and teased, "Isn't your event starting next week? If you're not working overtime, why are you here? Sister Siqi doesn't have time for you."
"The plan is almost done. I came to see you when I passed by after get off work. I've always wanted to raise something, baby Nan Nan, do you have any recommendations?" Xu Tingting took Nan Nan's hand, and the two little girls talked and laughed as they walked away.
Dai Xiaoxing stared at their backs, and his eyes fell on Wu Siqi on the other side of the stage, and the extremely beautiful little girl next to her.
She was slightly distracted, you are still so charming.
Next to the stage, the host and Wu Siqi confirmed the process.
Tonight we will first announce that five hospitals have jointly launched the "Homeless Shelter" fund. Each hospital will send a representative doctor to speak on stage and sign and cut the ribbon.
The mall became increasingly bustling, the stage lights came on, and the auditorium gradually filled up. Wu Siqi stood aside, watching the lively scene, feeling a sense of peace in her heart. Although she could no longer work as a veterinarian and save lives, she felt that she could contribute in another way.
Yi Ning held the documents and water cup for her and stood obediently by her side, like a little assistant. Wu Siqi could already imagine that as soon as the event was over, gossip would spread around the company.
But never mind, this great immortal also helped her avoid a lot of trouble.
At this point, Chen Yiming, sitting in the back row, was also in trouble. As one of the organizers' representatives, he didn't approach to greet people as usual. He only occasionally glanced down at his watch, his slender fingers unconsciously pressing on his sleeves, appearing particularly aloof amid the lively atmosphere.
After the host explained the fund situation, applause broke out and five representative doctors walked onto the stage in front of Wu Siqi.
Yi Ning suddenly tugged at the corner of her clothes, "Xiao Wu."
"Hmm?" Wu Siqi's eyes were still fixed on the stage. "What's wrong?"
Yi Ning's eyes narrowed slightly, and he whispered, "That person...smells of blood."
"who?"
"That sultry guy with glasses I met after dinner last time." Yi Ning stared at Chen Yiming, sniffing softly with his delicate nose. "Yes, it's the smell of blood."
Wu Siqi was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously looked over. Chen Yiming was just taking the microphone and speaking, his expression as calm as ever.
"Could it be because he just came from the hospital after surgery and has some smell?" she whispered.
"I don't know," Yi Ning shook his head, his eyes as dark as ink. "It's possible, but other doctors don't have that kind of feeling."
The crowd was lively and the applause continued, but Yi Nian felt an unignorable uneasiness in his heart.
Wu Siqi nodded slightly and clapped along with the rhythm: "Don't be prejudiced against others. It's normal for doctors to smell of blood."
Yi Ning pouted and said, "Forget it. As long as she is here, no monsters or demons can get close to Xiao Wu."
The five doctors on the stage bowed and left the stage. After the host expressed his gratitude, the main stage activities came to an end. The only remaining function here was the adoption registration and photo taking session.
Normally, Wu Siqi could start slacking off at this time, but she enjoyed the process of finding a home for every wandering soul, so she stood in the exhibition area to provide guidance.
"If the adoption is successful on site, you can get free sterilization services and a 500 yuan medical subsidy. However, the subsidy will only be issued after you upload recent photos with watermarks on the 'Homeless Home' App for six consecutive months." She patiently explained to passers-by.
Her eyes were full of light, completely different from her usual listless state. Her whole body seemed to be ignited, and her spirits were high and dazzling.
Yi Nian looked at her quietly, overwhelmed by the burning heat.
If it weren't for the damn laws of nature, she should have lived like this after reincarnation, living the life she wanted, living a happy and wonderful life.
Thinking of this, she clenched her fists unconsciously.
Just as Wu Siqi was handing out the form to a passerby, a voice broke through the clamor: "Dr. Bird? Are you Dr. Bird?"
She turned her head and saw a curly-haired girl wearing glasses calling her with a smile.
Wu Siqi smiled and asked her: "Who are you? Do we know each other?"
"I'm Xiaoyan." The curly-haired girl shook the chat interface between the two of them on her phone.
Wu Siqi then remembered that it was the girl who wanted to adopt the little black cat sheriff.
"Hello, how do you recognize me? I don't think we've met since then."
Xiaoyan: "Your voice is so nice, it's hard to forget."
Wu Siqi's smile froze slightly, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Xiaoyan hurriedly explained, "Don't get me wrong, I'm a music teacher and I'm very sensitive to sound, so I paid special attention. By the way, did you find the kitten later?"
I found it. Wu Siqi raised his eyebrows and looked at Yi Ning who was playing with the dog next to him. The real person is right in front of you.
Xiaoyan continued, "It's such a pity that I didn't adopt a kitten last time. How can I participate in your event? I saw the promotion, but I've been too busy lately to take a closer look."
"It's very simple. You fully meet the adoption requirements. Fill out this form first, go over there for evaluation, and after passing, register on the app, then you can choose your favorite furry baby to take home." Wu Siqi handed over the form and took out a pen from his pocket.
Xiaoyan filled out the form, returned the pen, thanked with a smile, and walked towards the assessment office.
After she left, Yi Ning whispered in her ear, "Xiao Wu, did you want to give me to her before?" His hot breath fell behind Wu Siqi's ear.
Wu Siqi glanced at her sideways, then smiled and said, "Why, are you not satisfied? I have a proper job and a few cats at home. What a wonderful new family."
"Humph!" Yi Ning made a face at her, angry! How could you give yourself away?
Wu Siqi smiled and rubbed her head, then continued explaining the activities to passers-by.
The mall closes at 10 o'clock, and they pack up their stalls at closing time. The stray animals are left at the scene, given food and water, and then enclosed with curtains.
She was the person in charge, and Wu Siqi had to check it once before she could leave work with peace of mind. She asked Yi Ning to go to the parking lot to pick up the car first, and she stayed in the mall to make the final confirmation.
The cage was locked and the curtain was tied. She hung the last hook and turned around, only to be startled by the dark figure in front of her.
She pressed her chest, panting, and said angrily, "Dai Xiaoxing! Do you know that standing behind someone silently like this will scare them to death?"
Dai Xiaoxing apologized: "I'm sorry, I haven't had a chance to talk to you alone all day, so I can only block you here."
"I don't think I have anything to say to you." Wu Siqi walked around her.
Dai Xiaoxing raised his hand and grabbed her arm. They were the same height, and Wu Siqi stopped beside her shoulder.
Her voice was low. "You clearly love this career so much, why would you give up all that knowledge and dreams for something so illusory? You clearly could become an excellent veterinarian. You clearly want to be a bird doctor so badly!"
Every word she said made Wu Siqi breathless. Yes, there were so many Mingmings.
"You're in a relationship, right? I saw the message you sent to Yiming the other day. You can't cook, so someone else cooked for you, right? It was the girl who's been following you today, right?"
"You said... you're not gay." Her voice began to tremble.
Her palms were terribly hot, and Wu Siqi suddenly felt confused.
"Xiaowu?"
That soft voice pulled Wu Siqi out of his memories.
