Chapter 776: Doing a Good Deed
"Is Qiao Qiao okay?"
When Zhou Anan rushed to the hospital with his girlfriend, he saw Xiao Qiaoqiao whose wound was being treated by the nurse and asked with concern.
It was vaguely visible that there were two red teeth marks on Xiao Qiaoqiao's tender white calf.
"Big brother."
Seeing her big brother coming, the originally quiet little Qiao Qiao's eyes turned red and she stretched out her arms, wanting a hug.
"Qiao Qiao, don't move. If you move, you will get a scar. Qiao Qiao is the bravest one in our family, so don't cry."
"oh"
After comforting her daughter, Zhang Ting, who was sitting next to her, replied softly, "It's okay. You wear more clothes in winter, and the wound is not deep. You just need to get two more vaccinations in a few days."
"Where did you get bit by the dog?"
Looking at Xiao Qiaoqiao's calf which had some bloodstains, Zhou Anan asked with some confusion.
It's common to see puppies running around and biting innocent pedestrians in the summer, but in the cold winter, those dogs are too lazy to come out and move.
"I was bitten when I was playing hide-and-seek with Big Fatty and Second Fatty in the alley."
Without waiting for her mother to answer, little Qiao Qiao spoke first.
After the initial fear passed, the brave little Qiao Qiao no longer cried, but she was a little sad that the big dinner that she was supposed to have tonight was gone.
"Whose dog is this?"
Zhou Anan was not surprised to know that some older residents in the old alley liked to keep dogs to guard their homes.
But it’s a bit hard to understand why the dog owner didn’t come to check on Xiao Qiaoqiao’s wound when it was almost healed.
"I don't know whose dog it is. It could be a stray dog."
Regarding this, Zhang Ting also asked the old neighbors who were present at the time, but they had no clues.
The children who were playing together couldn't explain it clearly, and the dog owner might not come forward to admit it in order to avoid paying compensation.
There are few surveillance cameras in the old alley, so there is no way to check.
"Um."
After hearing Zhang Ting say this, Zhou Anan didn't ask any more questions.
At most, it's just a matter of a few hundred dollars, and there's no need to insist on finding the dog's owner.
Because of the doctor's instructions, Zhou Anan endured the pitiful appearance of Xiao Qiaoqiao and bought her some light century egg and lean meat porridge and gold and silver steamed buns on the way to drive them home.
"Sister Ting, you have decorated it really well here."
After changing into cotton slippers and walking into Zhang Ting's newly purchased Century Suite, Shi Mingxia looked at the simple Western-style décor inside and couldn't help but praise it.
Compared with the lakeside garden house decorated according to her own ideas, Shi Mingxia felt that the decoration in front of her was quite unique.
"No, I just did it casually. It was An An who helped me find a designer for the decoration. I was only responsible for buying sofas and beds."
Putting the things in the cabinet, Zhang Ting replied gently.
She originally wanted to take care of her mother nearby, so she had her eye on Lakeside Garden. That way, it would only take about ten minutes to walk back to the old alley, which was very convenient.
However, Zhou Anan suggested that she buy a suite in Century Park first, and Zhang Ting agreed without much thought.
At worst, I can save some money this year and buy a house in Lakeside Gardens.
"Mom, big brother, sister Xia, I'm going to have dinner first. The doctor said that I can't starve to death."
Little Qiao Qiao, who was already hungry, put on her own cotton slippers as soon as she entered the door, and rushed to the restaurant with the bag of gold and silver steamed buns.
"How about you sit down for a while and I'll make you some noodles?"
Knowing that neither of them had eaten dinner, Zhang Ting poured tea for them and said a little embarrassedly.
"No need, Sister Ting, let's eat next time."
It was so late, so Zhou Anan and the other person didn't stay long. They just drank a cup of hot water and left.
“Raising a child is not easy.”
Sitting in the booth of Blue Sky Coffee and eating his appetizer, Shi Mingxia thought of the little Qiao Qiao he had seen in the hospital before and sighed.
That little kid is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.
If her future children
"Qiao Qiao is really brave. There are not many children as sensible as her."
Faced with this topic that could potentially cause a big controversy at any time, Zhou Anan did not respond in line with his girlfriend's words, but extended the topic from another angle.
This topic is not pleasing even if you answer it with "they are still young".
However, imagining with his girlfriend what their future baby will be like seems too fake, and if he is not careful, it may reveal his true thoughts.
"That's right. When I was interning at a kindergarten, many children were very disobedient. It was mainly due to the parents' education problems. Qiao Qiao is one of the most well-behaved children in the class, I tell you..."
Sure enough, after hearing her boyfriend's words, Shi Mingxia seemed to open up and started talking about the various weird little kids she met in kindergarten during the summer vacation.
Having successfully diverted his girlfriend's attention, Zhou Anan continued talking, and the dinner ended successfully in a sweet atmosphere.
Zhou Anan was originally strolling around East Lake with his girlfriend to improve their relationship. After receiving the number of a certain big sister, he sent his girlfriend home and drove to the headquarters building of Dali Group.
On the way, Zhou Anan called a certain Deputy Director Xia and said, "Director Xia, there have been frequent incidents of stray dogs injuring people in the old city. Even my little niece was bitten. This is all your responsibility."
"Okay, I will take your question seriously. I will hold a meeting to study it tomorrow."
Xia Chengjiang, who had just been appointed as a part-time deputy director, understood the meaning of the other party's words and agreed directly.
There have been a lot of pups in the old city recently, and occasionally people come to the police station to report cases. Xia Chengjiang, who is in charge of public security, has some impressions.
Since this distinguished person has spoken of the incident of a dog injuring a person, we should indeed clean up the chaos in the old city and provide the citizens of Lucheng with a harmonious and peaceful living environment.
"Well, Brother Xia, let's have tea together when you are free."
"OK."
After finishing the call with Deputy Director Xia, Zhou Anan parked the car in front of the entrance of Dali Group’s headquarters building.
He really didn't have the time to find the owner of the dog that bit Xiao Qiao Qiao, but it was a good thing to deal with all the uncontrolled stray dogs in the old town.
"Sister Shu Ting, why are you summoning me so late at night?"
Led by the skilled female secretary whom she had met several times, Zhou Anan walked into the general manager's office and sat down familiarly, smiling and asking Miss Li who was sitting on the sofa.
"My brother ran away from home."
“.”
Looking at Miss Li who was wearing a blue women's suit, Zhou Anan carefully observed her facial expression and confirmed the authenticity of the matter.
That Mr. Li, what the hell is going on with this plane?
A good heir to a billionaire, aren't you comfortable in this position???
"Tell me about that Huaman Film and Television."
Motioning the other party to sit down, Li Shuting, who was drinking coffee, asked calmly.
"Forehead"
Not knowing the specific situation, Zhou Anan did not think too much about it. He simply talked about the shallow development history of Huaman Film and Television and mentioned several "small" projects in progress.
"That He Xinlan does have some abilities."
After listening to the history and current development of Huaman Film and Television, Li Shuting suddenly changed the subject and talked about the person who caused her brother to run away from home.
“.”
Hey, miss, why don't you speak according to the rules?
I'm talking to you about Huaman Film and Television, why are you talking about He Xinlan?
After drinking a sip of tea in silence, Zhou Anan continued to ask about the purpose of being summoned tonight: "Did Brother Li have a fight with his father?"
"Why not with me?"
Raising her eyebrows, Li Shuting asked back.
"Sister Shu Ting is such a generous person, how could she do something as mundane as quarreling?"
After praising the other party subtly, Zhou Anan made a guess in her mind.
As for why she didn't guess that Young Master Li and Young Miss Li had a quarrel, it was simply because Li Shuting already knew that Young Master Li had found a partner who was five years older than him. Moreover, Young Master Li didn't dare to quarrel with this tough young lady.
The only remaining reason is the head of the Li family who has never been met.
"You're right. My dad just found out about He Xinlan and doesn't approve of this relationship."
Since the other party had guessed it, Li Shuting did not hide it and briefly explained the reason why her brother ran away.
As for He Xinlan, an independent woman, Li Shuting had someone investigate her as soon as she got to know her.
After getting to know the other person's personality and reputation, Li Shuting neither supported nor opposed her brother's relationship with him.
"understand."
Nodding, Zhou Anan could also understand Li's father's thoughts.
The huge family business of the Li family will eventually be inherited by Young Master Li. It is normal for Li's father to give more consideration to Young Master Li's future partner.
If it were him, having a son like this, it would be great if he didn't have to be restrained.
Well, he didn’t have a son in his previous life, so it seems a bit too far-fetched to consider this.
"I heard that you helped my brother earn tens of millions last year?"
Without going into the topic of her younger brother running away from home, Li Shuting casually talked about another thing.
"I didn't help much with this matter. I just recommended a stock to Brother Li."
Suddenly turning to this matter, Zhou Anan's quick thinking quickly caught up and she did not take any credit for it.
Indeed, he just casually mentioned Apple's stock when chatting with Mr. Li, and reminded Mr. Li to withdraw in time before the financial crisis broke out last year.
In the final analysis, it was all done by Young Master Li himself.
"I have some spare money saved up, please help me arrange it."
