Unfortunately, the little feet were very alert. The round, shell-like toes had barely touched the tips of the hairs when they quickly withdrew, and the pair of big, wet eyes immediately widened, clearly indicating that they had completely come to their senses.
Somewhat disappointed, Mr. Axe climbed back up, arched his back, stretched out his paws, yawned, shook his fur, stood up abruptly, and glanced at the time with his paw.
"Baby, it's still early. Play by yourself for a while, and Daddy will go make you some food, okay?"
Cheng Shuang tilted her head and smiled at the old axe who was playing the word-repetition game without getting tired of it. The response she received was, "Ah, baby, are you reluctant to leave Daddy and want to stay with Daddy? Okay, okay, Daddy will take you with him!"
Cheng Shuang was put back into the baby bag.
Mr. Axe's breakfast is easy to prepare: two meat-flavored nutritional capsules. To avoid scaring the little one, Mr. Axe plans not to touch any kind of compound meat until she is completely familiar with him. Once the little one gets used to it, he will start with well-done steaks and slowly return to the wonderful life of medium-rare.
Cheng Shuang watched as Mr. Old Axe busied himself, mixing two spoonfuls of medicine powder, ten spoonfuls of milk powder, and some scattered ointments together. After shaking it a few times, the cold liquid immediately began to steam slightly. Mr. Old Axe pulled out the nipple, pressed it in place, and carefully poured a little onto the back of his paw to test the temperature.
The liquid scalded her fur, causing her sensitive paws to twitch. Mr. Axe placed the tube of nutritious dairy product on the table to cool down, then gently lifted the little girl from the pouch. With his other hand, he took a brand-new bottle of cleaning spray, lowering his already deep voice to soothe her, "Baby, how about we take a bath first? Then brush your teeth and have some delicious food!"
The master of reduplicated characters, Old Axe!
Cheng Shuang was inwardly grumbling, but gave the big axe a naive and innocent smile. No matter how she answered, it could always come up with a different interpretation. The little girl completely let it do as it pleased, since the big axe had never done anything to harm her.
"Baby, don't rush, Daddy will play with you after you finish eating!" Big Axe shook the spray a few times, then deliberately went behind Cheng Shuang with its big paws and gently squeezed the spray bottle. A small mist sprayed out. It carefully observed Cheng Shuang's reaction and found that she had no resistance. Then it sprayed her whole body clean like it was perfume.
Cheng Shuang experienced it firsthand. First, a warm sensation enveloped her skin, followed by a cool sensation. It seemed as if the tiny molecules disintegrated in the air, carrying away the sticky sweat.
After cleaning her body, the old axe took out a dental brace that looked like a human tooth, gently placed it in the little girl's mouth, held it for two seconds, then pulled on the string holding the brace, and the brace naturally fell off.
With a dry and cool feeling in her mouth and a hint of orange flavor, Cheng Shuang deliberately looked around on the shelf for different flavored braces. They were 10 coins a set, with twenty braces in a set. The price wasn't expensive, and she could afford to buy them.
"Baby is so smart!" In Mr. Axe's eyes, the little girl's obedience was a sign of intelligence and wisdom. Even pets that have been cleaned with cleaning spray since they were young can only obediently accept the spray. It is extremely rare for a baby to cooperate like this and open its arms.
Mr. Axe couldn't help but rub against the little one again. He liked her, not because she was intelligent, but he had to admit that this advantage saved him a lot of time that he could spend with her.
The old man watched with loving eyes as Cheng Shuang sipped the milk-flavored multivitamin, while he himself popped a meat-flavored capsule into his mouth, chewed it a couple of times, ignored the unpleasant plastic taste, and swallowed it haphazardly.
It was almost time to open the shop. The pets gradually woke up, and the whole shop began to get noisy.
Mr. Axe couldn't bear to leave the little girl alone on his desk, so he simply put her back in the baby bag and carried her with him. However, when he was working, he would try to be as gentle as possible so that the little one wouldn't choke on her milk.
It first turns on the store's central control, sets the amount of food and water in each glass cage, then clicks to clean the cages and arrange for people and pets to move freely. Immediately, countless pipes extend from the glass cages, leading directly to a large bed with guardrails that descends from the ceiling.
The pet is used to relaxing in a fixed spot. It sat on the tube slide to get to the big bed and started playing with the toys on the bed.
Mr. Old Axe pressed Cheng Shuang's head into the bag. The little girl did not resist, only peeking out with her eyes, looking around curiously.
Big Axe put on his liquid claw gloves, replaced the bedding in the cage with new ones, threw the old ones into the trash can to decompose, and after closing the cage, there was a hissing sound inside, first water vapor, then mist, and finally the ultraviolet light dried and disinfected it.
Taking advantage of this time, Mr. Axe stole a moment from his busy schedule to open his personal computer and log onto the circle.
Yesterday afternoon, it posted a photo of the little one playing hide-and-seek in the bathroom. Because the scarf was wrapped around her tightly, the photo didn't get much attention. Instead, acquaintances replied with question marks. But now, as soon as it opened its Moments, the comments were so numerous that it almost crashed the app.
Mr. Axe examined the wound with puzzlement, and the more he looked, the wider the crack at the corner of his mouth became, revealing sharp, white teeth.
Cheng Shuang peeked through the bag and saw that Big Axe had secretly taken a picture of her sleeping. The little girl's eyes widened. How come she didn't know that she was sleeping in a pose?
She covered her eyes shyly, certain that she hadn't kicked Old Axe in the nose!
In the photo, a five- or six-year-old girl is half on the bed and half hanging off the edge. One of her tender white feet is stuck in the big axe's nostril, and the other foot is on the big axe's head. Most importantly, the little girl is sleeping with her head tilted to the side and her face is rosy. She is not affected by her strange posture at all.
Old Axe, however, was still sleepy, his eyes filled with confusion, bewilderment, and a glimmer of loving kindness.
#Haha, you never know how bizarre a pet's sleeping posture can be!#
#Finally, she tamed the hot-tempered tiger for me, even though she's not an animal!#
#My cat is such a good sleeper, so good that I can never find where he's sleeping!#
#Am I the only one wondering how this little pet can grow up to be so cute?#
#Yes, yes, which store did you buy it from?#
#It's going to be a hit! I predict this little pet will become a sensation!#
There were countless comments like these, and those with extreme remarks were all deleted by the big boss with a stern look.
In the past, it didn't care about other people's opinions on the people and pets in the store, after all, it was a store, and posting on social media was also a form of promotion. But it's different with this baby. It doesn't need their opinions; it simply shares and records the beauty of daily life.
As for a direct confrontation, that's even more impossible; it doesn't need any animals to create hype for the baby.
Watching the old axe alternate between a smile and a stern look, Cheng Shuang pressed down on its paw and shook it, indicating it was time to change the channel.
Mr. Axe couldn't understand the little girl's expression, assuming she was just bored. He hesitated for a moment, then glanced at the human-pet frolicking on the big bed. Remembering that human-pets are a social species, and that prolonged separation from the human community can easily lead to loneliness-related psychological issues, he gritted his teeth, got up, and placed her on the big bed. As if afraid he would feel reluctant, Mr. Axe quickly walked away.
Cheng Shuang, with her arms raised: WTF, where's the tacit understanding, Tiger?
