Chapter 17 (1/2)
Zhao Yao stared intently at the dozen and a half helpless yet extreht to himself as he stroked his chin, ”It shouldn't be a problem for me to raise this dozen of stray cats based on my financial ability, but the problem lies with Elizabeth I' down' are”
Zhao Yao suddenly re near ”The deadline for the mission is tomorrow It's already 10 pm which means that we only have 25 hours left froht”
”If we do not coain experience in 6 months”
”We have to hurry”
With this in un to feel more and more anxious
He looked at Elizabeth and questioned, ” So about 'settling down' do you have any requests?”
Elizabeth lowered her head and mumbled, ”Well you could either ensure that they eat and drink enough to live healthily, or you could help the owner to raise them”
”Alright, understood I can promise you this at the very least” Zhao Yao replied as he nodded ”I will raise them back at my home first But what's your second condition? ”
Upon hearing this, Matcha turned into a ball of fury and shrieked into Zhao Yao's onna let these s bunch into our house?”
A thought suddenly flashed through Zhao Yao's mind Cats were territorial animals and were thus very defensive of their territory Unless they were raised together as a group, cats were usually extremely hostile towards new members that just joined the pack
Sorowl incessantly; others would physically injure newThey would hide in a corner and refused to budge, and becaloomy
The addition of a single new member could already lead to serious repercussions, let alone a dozen of them
Zhao Yao replied with a reassuring tone, ”Relax; they will only be there temporarily Besides, they would only take up an entire room for themselves I will help them find their owners” He was only left with a measly 25 hours -- he had to do whatever it took to ree to the terms
Matcha reonna do with their poop and urine? It won't take long before the entire room stinks with their stench and their fur”
”Rest assured We will make sure that they stay in the room and only that room” Zhao Yao looked down at the three little kittens which had been circling his legs all this tirey British Shorthair -- its unique grey fur stood out fro eyes, it stared at Zhao Yao curiously
British Shorthairs were considered a popular breed of cats and were priced frorand to tens of thousands
Zhao Yao turned to look at Elizabeth and sighed, ” Even British shorthairs and ragdolls have turned into stray cats Your owner must have been pretty rich”
Elizabeth replied, ”I left for the streets on lanced into the British Shorthair's war blindly away ” As she spoke, she coughed out another mouthful of blood
Zhao Yao frantically reacted, ”Hey, this won't do Let's rush you to the nearest vet right now, shall we? I'ht lose your life anytime”
”I'm fine” She spat out another mouthful of blood when she said that Zhao Yao becaht lose her life ”Bring the stray cats to the vets first I assuht?”
”Got it, I'll do as you say” Zhao Yao nodded his head and went straight to flag a cab to fetch the cats to the vet However, cab after cab went by and none of the that many stray cats
The clock continued to tick, and they had ally restless as the time left for the mission continued to shorten
As Zhao Yao flagged down the fourth cab, he instantly lay out his offer to the cabbie ”I'll give you a thousand if you would bring this bunch of stray cats to the vet” The cabbie agreed, needless to say, and rushed to the vet
Three kittens, 15 adult cats, together with Elizabeth and Matcha A total of 20 cats were being sent to Starry Starry Pet Hospital by Zhao Yao
The nurse stared in awe as 20 purring cats were brought to the hospital and exclai here? I'm sorry, but we do not take in stray cats”
Zhao Yao went straight to the point and said, ”I'm not here for that purpose I want to raise theive these cats a proper screening and perhaps some medication and vaccination”
”That ly replied, ”I wish I could, but we have limited manpower, and the doctor has already left work”
”Then call hiantly waved his hand ”Money isn't a problem; I'll make sure I pay him for overtime”
The nurse seemed a little startled, and answered, ”This isn't about the money”
”It is about the lanced at the clock on the wall, only to realize that it was almost 11 pm As anxiety continued to build up in him, Zhao Yao shoved RMB500 into the nurse's hands ”This is just a s you have and tell the doctor that if he is willing to come, I'll pay him RMB20000 as overtime fee”
