240 Rejected from Entry (2/2)
”Your cats are not allowed in there.” The staff member pointed at Fina and Snowy Lionet and said, ”What if they eat our birds?”
Zhang Zian understood the staff member's concern. Everyone knew that cats loved hunting birds. They were quick. If a cat laid its eyes on a bird, that bird would not have any hope of living.
”Don't worry. My cats don't eat raw meat. They won't eat your birds,” Zhang Zian assured.
”No. Our birds are too expensive to take this risk,” the staff member didn't agree.
Fina didn't care about this staff member but opened its eyes widely to look at various kinds of birds flying around. Snowy Lionet walked around Fina closely. When a bird flew close to Fina, Snowy Lionet would scare the bird away. That was the staff member's real concern.
Zhang Zian knew that bringing Fina along would get them in trouble. However, he would not agree to leave them outside at this point.
Guo Dongyue had been very quiet the whole time. He suddenly said, ”Could you have your boss come over?”
”I am sorry. Our boss is in a meeting with someone,” the staff member rejected.
It was a normal excuse. Zhang Zian could not tell if he was telling the truth or making up an excuse.
”I own a pet store. Look, we are both in the same industry. Why don't you let us in?” Zhang Zian tried to play the friend card.
The friend card didn't work. The staff member tried to kick them out. ”I am sorry. Our boss is meeting with someone now. If you don't want to leave them outside, please show yourselves out.”
Fina was angry. This was a huge humiliation for it. If it wasn't for the fact that Fina promised Zhang Zian it would behave, it would kill a few birds to show its anger. Fina stared at the staff member with its round and green eyes. Snowy Lionet could feel Fina's anger so it got ready to fight for its Queen. As soon as Fina sent a command, Snowy Lionet would start the fight.
Although the staff member had never had a cat, he clearly knew that both cats were angry. He was scared and stepped back vulnerably. He didn't understand why the cats had become so angry all of a sudden.
Zhang Zian knew that Fina would keep its promise and behave, but who knew what Snowy Lionet would do?! He stepped in between the two so he could stop the fight in time.
”What is going on? What are you doing?”
At this time, two people came out from the hallway behind the flowers. A middle-aged man in a suit walked over.
The staff looked back and acted as if the man was his savior, ”Director Lϋ, these two guys want to visit our birds' house. I told them they have to leave the cats outside but they don't want to… Look at this cat. It looks angry. I am concerned about our birds being hurt.”
Lϋ Mingyi nodded, smiled and noted the situation.
”Are you the manager or boss?” Guo Dongyue asked directly.
Lϋ Mingyi glanced at Fina and Snowy Lionet and said, ”I am the owner, Lϋ Mingyi. And you are…?”
Before he finished, a voice came up behind him,” Is that an ancient Egyptian cat?”
Zhang Zian looked over and saw a normal looking middle-aged man. He immediately recognized it was Professor Wei Kang, whom he met in Binhai University when he captured the apprehensive bird.
