1311 Taking Advantage of Dad (2/2)
”It doesn't matter. I will help you get it back,” Zhang Zian said and smiled. ”You can go with peace of mind. When you have time, come to my store and get it.”
The fat boy was furious and stared hard at him.
He had no choice. His dad took him away.
With nothing exciting to watch, the neighbors left as well. They went back to their families or their own mothers.
An ant found the body of the Western Chili. After returning to the nest, it quickly brought a large group of ants with it. Together, they picked up the body and returned with it to the ant nest. This fat meat could be eaten for several meals.
The netizens in the live room were also talking about the Western Chili. This kind of creature had different names in different places, but those who had suffered from it were talking about it in horror.
”Let's go to the store and eat some Egyptian date palms.” Zhang Zian ushered Snowy into the house.
Snowy smiled. Having seen what had happened to the Western Chili, she was still feeling somewhat nauseated and couldn't eat anything.
In the store, Zhang Zian found the gift he'd prepared for her. It was a female symbol, the ankh amulet, which symbolized life in ancient Egypt, plus a bag of dates.
When Snowy had gone out today, she'd told her parents that she would be home after a while, so she could not stay for long.
She talked with Zhang Zian and the staff. She also listened to Zhang Zian's experience in Egypt. However, Zhang Zian had a bragging expression when he told the story, making it impossible to confirm whether he was speaking the truth or making things up. However, everyone was used to it, as he always spoke with a mix of 70% truth and 30% falsehood. It was like mixing wine with water. Luckily, it was not with sh*t.
Snowy asked him about Sihwa. Her fans and Sihwa's fans overlapped. They were very curious as to why he and Sihwa had gone to Egypt at the same time, since Egypt was not among the top 10 preferred tourist destinations for the Chinese.
They were mainly interested in the mysterious Sihwa. They wanted to know why she spent most of her time in a small bathroom and why her body was soaked in water for a long time. Wouldn't her skin wrinkle?
Zhang Zian certainly denied it, emphasizing that he had not gone to Egypt for leisure, but to assist Binhai University with research. The goal had been to conduct research on primitive Egyptian cats in the desert. Relevant research reports might be published soon.
Snowy had no hope of getting an answer from him and had simply asked it at random. After the question, she got up and left.
The store was quiet for a while.
Lu Yiyun buried her head in her work and made a few paintings. Wang Qian and Li Kun ate the date palms one by one, and Jiang Feifei toyed around with the marine life next door.
Zhang Zian thought about the Western Chili just now. There was a lingering uneasiness in his heart because seeing one meant that there were at least a few hundred in the area. Fortunately, the residents rarely went to the greenspace, and the impact of the species being there was relatively low. However, if it continued to spread… The consequences were unpredictable.
He looked at the time. Sihwa had returned to Binhai City, which meant that the ocean life would be attracted here again. He had to go to the seaside to play Sihwa's songs and drive them away. He would also inspect the ocean.
In the days when he'd been in Egypt, some of the aquarium's pets had been sold. However, Jiang Feifei didn't know where to import goods from, so there were no new pets in the store. He decided to head to the beach and see if there were any rare marine creatures that had washed ashore.
At this time, a person outside the door looked in and asked, ”Here… Is this a pet shop?”
