Chapter 44
Song Shiyu did not return to the apartment, which was being renovated according to his idea to create a professional recording practice room for Ji Zhiqi.
He drove back to Nokin Manor.
The vehicle drove smoothly in the night.
While passing a relatively quiet section of the road, Song Shiyu keenly caught a glimpse of a small, wriggling white figure in the middle of the road.
He subconsciously slowed down the car and pulled over.
Only when I got closer could I see clearly that it was a snow-white puppy, curled up dying, with blood all over its body - one of its front legs had been cut off at the root, and the wound was hideous, obviously it had been abandoned here with malicious intent.
Song Shiyu's handsome brows were instantly furrowed, and a hint of coldness and reluctance flashed across his eyes.
He quickly took off his coat, gently but skillfully wrapped up the still trembling little life, and held it in his arms.
Back in the warm, bright hall of the manor, he immediately called his assistant, Xiaoxi. His tone was calm but filled with undeniable urgency: "Xiaoxi, thank you for your help at this late hour. Contact the best veterinarian and have him rush to Nokin Manor as quickly as possible."
"Okay, Mr. Song, I'll arrange it right away!" Xiaoxi agreed without hesitation.
Song Shiyu carefully placed the puppy on a soft blanket. Looking at its weak breathing, his heart inexplicably tightened.
At this time, UU appeared silently, floating aside, looking at the poor puppy with his head tilted.
"UU," Song Shiyu whispered with a hint of hope, "I want to save it with a wish."
Upon hearing this, UU immediately put her hands on her hips in anger, and said in a reproachful voice: "Xiaojiu! It can't die! Don't make random wishes again! This is the fourth time, and you're just thinking about useless things!" Although UU cannot see through the lifespan of humans, it can sense the life and death of these small animals.
Soon, the veterinarian hurried over with a professional medicine box.
Under the guidance of the nanny, he immediately went forward to check the puppy.
"Sir, its leg was recently amputated and it's bleeding profusely. Its condition is critical. I must immediately stop the bleeding and provide emergency treatment. However, subsequent debridement, anti-infection, and treatment will require specialized equipment. Would it be convenient for me to take it back to the clinic? I'll contact you once its condition stabilizes."
Song Shiyu nodded and handed over a business card: "Okay. Please do your best. This is my contact information. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me directly." The veterinarian took the business card with both hands, then carefully picked up the puppy wrapped in the coat and quickly left.
After the hustle and bustle, the manor returned to tranquility.
Song Shiyu leaned on the sofa. He hadn't seen Ji Zhiqi for a long time.
Wonder what he is doing now?
He picked up his phone and made a video call to Ji Zhiqi.
The request was accepted almost instantly.
The screen lit up, and what came into view was Ji Zhiqi just coming out of the bath.
He was shirtless, and crystal clear water droplets slid down his tight muscle lines. His lower body was casually wrapped in a bathrobe with the belt tied loosely.
That impeccable face was a little pale, but it did not detract from his handsome and handsome appearance at all, but instead added a bit of fragility.
His eyes penetrated the screen and locked onto Song Shiyu, so deep that they seemed to be able to suck in people's souls.
Song Shiyu's heart skipped a beat when he saw his look and eyes, but he remained calm. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "Ji Zhiqi, why did your concert suddenly get postponed for a day?"
Ji Zhiqi's eyes were dark, his voice slightly hoarse from having just showered, his tone containing subtle grievances and accusations: "Ah Yu, I thought the first thing you would say when you called me was that you missed me."
Song Shiyu was a little overwhelmed by his straightforward gaze and words, his heartbeat quietly accelerating. He curled the corners of his mouth and said in a soothing tone: "But it's okay, just adjust it, I will go to the scene to listen."
"I miss you, Ah Yu." Ji Zhiqi held the phone closer, his handsome face almost filling the entire screen, his voice low and tender, "I miss you very much, more than you miss me."
Song Shiyu looked at his almost coquettish look, and his heart softened. He blew a kiss to the screen handsomely with a charming smile: "I miss you too. See you the day after tomorrow." The day after tomorrow was the day after Ji Zhiqi's concert was rescheduled, and he really hadn't been idle for a moment.
After ending the call, Song Shiyu began to think about what gift to give Ji Zhiqi.
Ordinary objects seemed too tacky and unworthy of him.
He unconsciously looked through some of Ji Zhiqi's early social media updates and found that he seemed to have a special liking for the aquarium.
A light bulb went off in Song Shihe's head, and he remembered that City M, where Ji Zhiqi was holding his concert, happened to have a large-scale, top-notch aquarium.
He immediately found Bai Siang's phone number in the address book and dialed it.
"Hey, Xiaobai."
Bai Siang's lazy, yawning voice came from the other end of the phone: "What's wrong, baby? It's so late at night."
"Can you lend me the aquarium in your City M for a day?" Song Shiyu said concisely.
Bai Siang instantly perked up, his tone rising with a hint of joking, "Hey! Baby, this is the first time you've asked me for help! Can you say it again for me?"
"Get out." Song Shiyu rolled his eyes at him without any hesitation, even though the other party couldn't see it.
"Borrow it, borrow it, of course!" Bai Siang agreed with a smile, and then his curiosity was aroused. "But you have to tell me the truth. What do you want to do by renting out the whole place? What big move are you going to make?"
"Of course, take Ji Zhiqi to have a look." Song Shiyu said calmly.
"Tsk, it really is a show for a sweetheart." Bai Siang smacked his lips on the other end of the phone, "Alright, then transfer the money, friendship price, three million a day."
Song Shiyu didn't even frown and directly used his mobile phone to transfer the money.
After receiving the notification of the arrival of the money, Bai Siang looked at the string of zeros, gritted his teeth, and muttered softly: "...I should have asked for more earlier."
