Chapter 17 Night

People often say: "Meet by chance".

Meeting such a kind store manager, maybe it is the so-called meeting by chance?

Sitting on a bench in the park, Mayfair looked at the flashing neon lights in the distance, thinking in a daze.

The day before New Year's Eve, the night of Valentine's Day, I became so alone now.After a busy day, she no longer has the strength to grieve, and her whole body and mind are only exhausted.

The drowsiness brought a groggy feeling, but the cold wind in the winter night kept getting into her clothes, making her shiver from time to time.

Perhaps this is the experience of vagrants and beggars?Mayfair thought to herself a little mockingly.

I have only sat here for an hour, and I feel the cold is unbearable. Don't those beggars who have been wandering outside all year round feel even more sad?
She shrank back, trying to minimize the wind exposure.

Although the store manager gave her several hundred yuan, she was not willing to use the money to live in the hotel.

After all, I don't know how long I'll be wandering. It's better to keep such money for food than to waste it on accommodation.

Alipay still has half a month's salary.After getting the reissued ID card, you should be able to barely meet what you need to go home.She huddled in the chair and slowly calculated, imagining how to live the next day.

This kind of pressure from survival became more and more obvious after I graduated.

Many people were supported by their parents when they were in high school and college, so they took their monthly living expenses and spent their youth carefree on campus, living today without thinking about tomorrow.

In fact, many people have not yet realized what kind of situation they will face when they graduate one day in the future.

If you are as ordinary as other students, without the help of your parents, your grades will be mediocre.Then from the moment you step into the society, you will find that your life is so simple that there is only one word——

money.

In the final analysis, all the problems in life are "money", and everything becomes simple and cruel.If you have money, you have to survive. If you don't have money, you will be in constant panic like a lost dog.

Faced with such a huge gap, Mayfair once suffered quite a blow.In college, her fantasy of a better life in the future seemed to be shattered in an instant.

In just three months, she seemed to be a different person, from an ignorant and imaginative girl who had just graduated to a salaryman who was buried in work.

Later, I had my own small family and pets... But is this considered mature?
Mayfair doesn't think so now.

After going through this incident, she was very frustrated to find that she was still that little girl who knew nothing about society.

She was very envious of the store manager who was about her own age.Besides laziness, Mayfair noticed something else in him.This is a woman's intuition.

She always felt that although the young store manager seemed unreliable, no matter what he did, he seemed very calm, as if everything had a very strict plan in his heart.

She thinks it's a kind of maturity.

Looking up at the hazy night sky, Mayfair finally felt drowsy.She gathered up the luggage and put it next to the bench, then took off her shoes and curled up on her side on the chair.

Hard benches and cold to the touch gave me a very bad feeling.But she had no choice but to endure and close her eyes.

She also released the two cats.At first, Mayfair thought that if it was impossible, let them go.After all, although wandering is hard, it is not like me that even survival is a problem.

Unexpectedly, they snuggled up to Mayfair's feet very obediently, accompanying her like little guardians.

This moved her for a while.

A cat is a sincere animal.Maybe they are not good at expressing their feelings, but once they identify their master, they will give their whole life to her.This feature is especially evident in Chinese pastoral cats.

Many people look down on the Chinese pastoral cat, thinking that its personality is too bad and unfriendly, but it is not the case.

As a native cat in China, garden cats not only have stronger environmental adaptability than foreign breeds, but also have distinct population characteristics.

Chinese pastoral cats have tenacious vitality, and most of them tend to be lively.

Many people say that they have a bad personality, but it is actually caused by long-term wandering.Stray cats are always wary of everything around them, so many people who adopt stray cats will find that no matter how they raise stray cats, they will not get close to them.

In fact, cats have a perception of love and warmth that other animals do not have.

These two cats, Mayfair, are very fierce to strangers, but they are very gentle to herself, and they will often snuggle into her arms and act like a spoiled child.This is also because they know that Mayfair saved their life.

So now even though Mayfair is so displaced, they have no intention of leaving.

One person and two cats just curled up on the bench in the park, slowly falling asleep in the cold wind in the deep winter.

For Mayfair, her difficult life has just begun.

……

Time passed quietly, and the number of people on the street gradually decreased.

There are almost no people in the park, and occasionally one or two small animals can be seen flashing by quickly.

Not long after Mayfair fell asleep, two figures, one big and one small, appeared in the park.They walked and talked as if they were taking a walk, walking through the park paths.

"Orange, are you sure you're here?"

"Nonsense meow, are you questioning this cat's ability?"

"What skills do you have, except eating... Ah, I found it."

The sound stopped.The tall figure looked up to the front, where a pile of large and small luggage was piled up next to a bench.

A figure was quietly curled up on the bench, with two cats around her feet.It seemed that they were awakened by the voice of the visitor, and they looked at this side vigilantly.

Wu Ren smiled helplessly and shook his head.

Fei'er, a stubborn girl, really chose to sleep outside.He greeted Tangerine and walked over with light steps.

Mayfair was sleeping soundly on the bench, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, she should be dreaming something.

Wu Ren made a quiet gesture to the two cats, regardless of whether they understood or not, he stretched out a coat he brought and spread it gently on Mayfair.

The smell from the stranger made the two cats feel a little uneasy, and they gathered around the coat and sniffed gently.

Wu Ren comforted them softly, and then they were relieved a little, and they rubbed lightly on their clothes.

Speaking of it, cats rubbing against people or objects express acceptance and possession.It means that they are willing to leave their scent on people or objects, thus expressing their closeness.

Now Wu Ren, in fact, the vigilance in the hearts of the two raccoon cats is already very low.

After doing this, Wu Ren sighed softly, and stood by the bench and looked at Fei'er silently.She didn't seem to be wary at all, and slept deeply.

I think it must be too exhausted after a day of panic.

"Wu Ren Wu Ren, let's go. It's so cold outside!" Ju Zi called from afar.

Wu Ren shook his head.He turned around and took a few steps to pick up the orange, and gently came to the bench next to Mayfair and sat down.

"Meow?! Don't tell me, you want to spend the night here meow!"

"Be quiet."

Wu Ren pressed Tangerine's head and rubbed it for a while, then looked up at the sleeping girl not far away, and sighed slightly.

"If you think it's cold, get into my clothes. It's not safe for Fei'er to be outside alone at night. I still have to stay with her."

"Tut tsk tsk, gentle meow." Juzi stretched out her paw and pushed Wu Ren away to rub her hand, "I have the demeanor of a cat chasing a cat girl back then, meow~"

"Hey? Tell me the truth, I'm gentle, don't I know it myself?"

Wu Ren grinned, then unbuttoned his coat, and put the orange inside.

After a while, he also narrowed his eyes slightly.
