Zhang Zian reminded Long Xian of the two idiots’ temperaments and didn't care whether she had understood or not. He just walked to the wards of the clinic. His pets were being taken care of by Sun Xiaomeng in the spare wards of her clinic temporarily. He walked a few steps, and he heard cats’ meowing and dogs’ barking.
While walking towards the wards, he observed the sanitary and cleaning conditions here. He had to admit that, though Wang Qian and Li Kun were complete idiots, they were diligent in keeping this place clean. They weren’t lazy while helping out at the pet shop, and they were doing quite well here at the pet clinic. The sanitation and disinfection status was impeccable. There were no strange smells, except for the normal smell of disinfectant. No wonder Sun Xiaomeng had been asking them to work there for longer period... Of course she would want that, she didn't need to pay them.
Among the wards, one’s door was open, Zhang Zian peeked inside and saw a middle-aged man in a suit sizing up the pets in the display cases.
Zhang Zian knocked on the door, and the middle-aged man turned around with an inquiring look.
”Excuse me, are you the customer who wants to buy a pet?” Zhang Zian walked into the ward.
”Yes, and you are?” asked the middle-aged men.
Zhang Zian casually pointed to the display cases, ”My name is Zhang Zian, and I am the owner of the Amazing Fate Pet Shop. These pets are mine; I’m keeping them at this clinic temporarily. Have you been waiting a long time?”
”Oh.” The man nodded and stuck his hand out towards Zhang Zian politely. ”Nice to meet you. No, I haven’t been waiting long, just a couple of minutes, and I got the chance to look at the pets here.”
This man made a good impression on Zhang Zian. The man dressed decently and was very polite. Most importantly, he had the gentle temperament of a scholar.
They shook hands and greeted each other.
”And what's your name?” asked Zhang Zian.
The man took out a business card and handed it over to Zhang Zian, ”My name is Meng Li, and I am a teacher at Binhai University. Professor Wei Kang recommended this place to me.”
”Professor Wei Kang...” Zhang Zian felt a little bit surprised, ”Are you also a biology professor?”
Zhang Zian became alert and thought, was this man pretending to buy pets but in fact was coming for Fina?
”No, no. I'm not from the biology department.” Meng Li clarified, ”I just happen to know Professor Wei Kang. I want to buy a dog, but I didn't know where I should go, so I inquired my colleagues about it. Professor Wei Kang recommended your pet shop, and he knew that your shop is upgrading, so the pets are put here temporarily. I guess I might just come straight over to have a look.”
”Oh, no wonder.” Zhang Zian understood.
Other customers who didn’t know the truth would have felt weird that his pets were in Sun Xiaomeng’s pet clinic, and wouldn’t have waited patiently for his arrival. Meng Li was willing to wait there patiently because he believed in Wei Kang's recommendation.
Nowadays, with advanced technology, people had multiple ways to obtain information, but recommendations among friends and colleagues were the most reliable channels, even for intellectuals.
With the misunderstanding being clarified, Zhang Zian let down his guard.
