Chapter 606: Friend
Translator: Nyoi-Bo StudioEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Speaking of social issues, the differences between China and Japan were fairly abundant. China was progressing very quickly, but its sense of social responsibility wasn't keeping up with their growing extravagance. No laws were put into effect to regulate such issues, and with the increasing number of dog owners, it only served to contribute to the problem.
However, many were starting to be conscious of the problem. Both young teenagers and seniors were now getting into the habit of picking up after their dog when out on walks. If every dog owner did their part, the world would become a better place.
Having dogs as pets was more troublesome than having cats because there was so much more to be worried about. When customers were unable to decide between a cat or dog, Zhang Zian always recommended cats because they're less bothersome.
Although it's said that one can never be too courteous, Masanori Suzuhara's courtesy was too much. She positioned herself as an inferior in order to show respect, which Zhang Zian wasn't accustomed to. Why was he suddenly the superior?
”I'm terribly sorry for taking your pictures without your consent and sending it to others.”
”It's okay, you don't have to apologize. I give you my consent, okay?” Zhang Zian responded.
She bowed gratefully and said, ”Thank you very much for being so generous! Pardon me for intruding, I shall take my leave now.”
Zhang Zian waved. ”Go on, you're going to catch a cold if you keep standing out here.”
Masanori Suzuhara lightly tugged her leash. ”Snoopy, let's go.”
Snoopy gave the inside of the pet store another affectionate look, before running off cheerfully.
Just as her figure disappeared at the end of the street, Lu Yiyun arrived. Wang Qian and Li Kun would arrive later, as they had a long day yesterday and went home late.
Zhang Zian brought the broom with him as he headed back into the store. He decided to clean up the second floor and leave the first floor for when Wang Qian and Li Kun turned up. He always cleaned the second floor, more so after Pi appeared, he couldn't just let anyone go up to the second floor.
”Zhi zhi!”
Pi was still seated in front of the computer typing away. Hearing Zhang Zian, it turned around and grinned at him.
”Good morning, Pi!” Zhang Zian greeted Pi.
Mentally, Pi was better, but it still lost sleep whenever it was excited. At least now, it smiled from time to time.
”How's it going Pi? How many adds now?”
At this point, he was no longer worried about the question making Pi depressed.
Pi pointed at the screen.
”9,853? Just a little more until ten thousand!” Zhang Zian exclaimed, ”Pi, you're going to have ten thousand readers soon!”
”Zhi zhi!” Pi leapt off the chair and did a few somersaults.
Zian could've never imagined Pi being so energetic. The Pi that used to be depressed because its novel wasn't doing well, was gone for good.
”Zhi zhi.”
Zhang Zian had wanted to sweep the floor, but Pi stopped him from leaving. Pi pointed at the screen eagerly.
”Are you saying that you want me to watch the moment the adds reach ten thousand with you?” Zian guessed.
