Pets miss

"Mi, mi", the kitten in the cardboard box exhausted the energy of feeding, desperately calling for the missing mother cat.

Since they were born, the warm, huge, reliable existence exuding the fragrance of milk that has been protecting them all the time suddenly disappeared one day.

Instead, there is a cold, hard space in which they are confined.

"Mi...mi..."

The brothers next to him also joined the ranks of crying.

... Does anyone know where our mother went?Mom, mom, we are so hungry!

But they shouted and shouted until their voices became hoarse, and the warmth never came back.

Although the space in the middle was shaking, there was a lot of noise shrouded in it, and "something" caught them and scared them to snuggle together, but after a while they were put down again.

so cold.very hungry.

The voice around him gradually weakened.

Everyone... Gradually stopped moving... Hey, everyone... What's wrong with everyone?

"Poor little ones..."

tick.tick.Water drops fell from the sky.

"Is your mother missing? Who took you away from Mommy?"

The warm and soft "something" caressed the body gently. Miraculously, the trembling hands and feet began to feel less cold.

Hey, hey, do you know where our mommy is?We are hungry.

"Mi...me...me..."

"You all come to my house, little ones. Change to a warmer place, and I will help you make grandma drink, don't worry, you will be fine."

"Mi...mi..."

The worst situation has passed, and the life that was originally discarded has found sunshine again.

Recently, Deng Yufan has to get into a mess every day when he wakes up and opens his eyes.

"Mi, mi..."

"Meow……"

"Woof woof..."

Three kittens, four adult cats, plus two Papillons.These raised animals could no longer wait for the owner to "give food" and protested outside the bedroom door.

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll do it right away!"

With unbrushed teeth, disheveled hair, and sleepy eyes, Deng Yufan leaned against the wall, yawned unsteadily, walked to the kitchen, and began to prepare breakfast for everyone in the family—except himself.

Food for big cats and dogs is easy to prepare, just pour the ready-made dry food into their special tableware, the trouble is for the kittens who have not been weaned.

These three little meows were seen in a cardboard box in the parking lot when he rode his bicycle to the supermarket to shop last month.At that time, the cats in the cardboard boxes had been left there for an unknown amount of time, and their bodies were a little hypothermic and extremely weak.

At that time, he immediately took the cats to the box and sent them to the pet hospital for treatment.

Fortunately, after the doctor's examination, it was found that the cats were weak due to hunger and cold. As long as they supplemented nutrients, lit a warm lamp, and took good care of them, they should be able to recover.However, the doctor also reminded that kittens are prone to die young, and sometimes people can only do their best to obey the destiny.

Although it is very laborious to take care of the little cats, they have to feed them every two or three hours, and they have to poop and urinate for them.

However, seeing the little life that is trying so hard to survive, how can Yufan give up lightly?A little lack of sleep is nothing, within the scope of his ability, as long as they don't give up on himself, Yufan will not give up on them either.

Fortunately, he changed a new job recently, and his working hours are more flexible.He also asked the manager to shorten his working hours so that he could come back in time to feed the little cats.

Now the three cats in the young cat class are growing smoothly, gaining weight every day, and becoming more lively and active.Every day just watching them rebel in their cute appearance in the "nest" that Yufan built for them with cardboard boxes and iron cages, all the hard work has paid off.

Usually after he is busy with the "food" of his pets, he has time to supplement his own five internal organs temple.Then, before going to work, he has to use the rest of the time to clean out the pets' litter box, take the dogs for a walk, use a massage brush for them to remove lost hair, brush their teeth, and so on.

Sometimes Yufan feels that he is not their master at all, but a slave, because he has to serve so many masters by himself, and sometimes he finds it difficult!

But no matter how hard he felt, Yufan never once considered "abandoning" or "releasing" these treasures.

Yufan didn't understand how "releasing life" would affect the environment, or the profound philosophy of "releasing life is also releasing death".Yufan only knows the simplest principle of life - once you make a promise, you must abide by the agreement and be responsible to the end.

When he brought these cats and dogs who were wandering on the street home to take care of them, this commitment has already taken effect, and there is no day when it will end.

"Ah, I'm miserable!"

When Deng Yufan looked up, he saw that the digital clock on the wall was past five o'clock in the afternoon, so he quickly put down the cat toy at hand.

"I have to earn money for your cat's meal. I will play with you when I come back. Be good at home!"

A moment ago, he was still chasing the fluffy cat toy, but at this moment he found that Yufan had put away the things, and the meows also dispersed cooperatively.Or wash your face with your little hands, or yawn, or just lie down lazily, flicking your tail once and for all.

Regardless of whether they listened to their warnings or not, for Yufan, who is a cat slave, seeing the leisurely and lazy appearance of his beloved cats is the most reassuring image.

"I'm going out!"

Putting on a well-ironed brand-name suit jacket, walked to the entrance, and was about to put his feet on the expensive six-figure leather boots when he suddenly remembered the two large bags of garbage still piled on the balcony, so he had to hurry He took off his shoes and went in to pick up the trash.

The second time I said goodbye to the cats and put on my shoes—a slightly curly bang was tossed until it was stuck to my forehead with sweat, and the shape I had worked so hard with hair carving all collapsed.

But now I don't have time to care about this at all. If I am late again today, I don't know how the manager will scold him.Yufan rushed out of the entrance anxiously, turned around and took the door to his own house, and then turned his legs forward——

"Wow!" nearly tripping over a bag of trash.

For the first few seconds, he thought he had hidden a superpower doll in his trash, because it moved on its own and blocked his way first.

——No, of course it was a joke.

No matter how stupid Yufan is, he knows that super power dolls are such an expensive thing, there is no reason to put them in the garbage bag.Besides, don't you carry the two big bags of your own garbage in your hands properly?

So this bag of rubbish must have come from again... Deng Yufan raised his face slowly, and pointed his eyes directly at the door of the neighbor next door.

Again.

This new neighbor who moved in last month actually regarded the front door of other people's house as his designated garbage collection site. Every few days, a bag of garbage was piled up in front of Yufan's door.

Yufan has lived in this seven-story elevator apartment for two years. It was almost completed, and within two days after he started to advertise on the Internet, he rented this apartment on the second floor through an intermediary. The layout of the apartment is the smallest, with only one bedroom and one living room.

Since the MRT passes by, the market and banks are also nearby, and the living functions are not bad, so this new apartment that is only rented and not sold, and the rent is reasonable, is very popular in the rental market. As long as there is a vacant unit, It will be rented out almost immediately.

It is conceivable that the turnover rate of this apartment is not high. Compared with some residents in the building who are changing tenants all day long, and it is difficult to establish a nodding acquaintance, the neighbors here are very easy. We are familiar with each other, and we are all very kind people.Yufan has always been very fortunate that he moved quickly enough to rent this ideal house.

However, the one next door has been vacant since Yufan moved into this apartment. After decoration and construction started a few months ago, Yufan's "paradise" has changed.

During the decoration period, a bunch of workers next door came in and out, beating and beating, which made the cats and cats at home in a state of tension all day long, losing control and running away at every turn.Also, I, who works the night shift, usually sleep until almost noon, but those noises start on time at eight o'clock in the morning, so that he hardly gets enough sleep all day.

However, he still told himself that the new neighbors didn't make noise on purpose, and he just had to endure until the decoration period was over.

Last month, someone finally moved in.

Generally speaking, newcomers will always take the initiative to say hello to the old residents, and even send a gift to them, and apologize verbally for the troubles caused during the decoration.

But Yufan never waited for his new neighbor to come to say hello, so until now he doesn't even know whether his neighbor's "look" is round, square, flat or long.

He is sure that the other party has moved in next door, because he can hear the door opening and closing of the next door, and he has heard the symphony from the balcony next door, and occasionally high heels knock out on the wooden floor. tuk tuk noise.

Maybe the person didn't come to say hello because he or they were shy?

Yufan kindly thought of the neighbors' excuses for not coming to say hello, and also felt that if they didn't say hello, they didn't say hello, which was not that important.

but!

Garbage shouldn't be left in front of other people's doors, right?For the first few times, Yufan also thought that the other party had just moved here, so maybe he couldn't figure out where to take out the trash.Anyway, I have to take out the garbage, so I kindly and smoothly help him take the garbage to the collection place and throw it away.

It's just that day by day, week by week, even a month has passed, but the neighbor's behavior of "throwing rubbish in your house" has not improved at all.

He knew that the other party was also a person who went out late and returned early, and had the same upside-down routine as himself. At this time, he should be at home.So, carrying three bags of garbage, he stepped forward to ring the other party's doorbell.

For the first time, no one responded.The second time Yufan extended the time for ringing the doorbell, but the other party still did not come to answer the door.For the third time, Yufan simply pressed the doorbell all the time - the doorbell chirped on the other end, screaming continuously, followed by a burst of angry footsteps.

"Who?! The doorbell is not for you to play with!" growled, and opened the door.

Bright angry eyes stared at him imposingly.

Yufan finally sees the "true face" of his neighbor - he turns out to be a tall, rugged and macho man.

The extremely short and neat hairstyle covers the perfect semicircular head.The straight jaw, the strong lines extending from the raised wide lips, are very MAN.

High cheekbones, slightly crooked nose bridge, and deep eye sockets... just like the popular multinational cuisine, the men's looks are also very mixed, as if the blood of various races is mixed, it is hard to say that it is typical Taiwanese faces.

When Yufan first met him, he wondered if he was a friend of the aboriginal people, or a mixed race of Chinese and Western.

"Who are you?"

After opening the door, he stared at Yufan for a long time, and finally the man opened his mouth again.When he is not roaring, his voice is thick and magnetic.

With a shirtless upper body and a fierce look with his hands on the waist of his jeans, he looks like a "brother".There was also the scary "lion's roar" before. If ordinary people cherish their lives, at this juncture, they will choose not to approach him and run quickly.

Yufan stepped forward. "I'm your neighbor, sir."

"Yeah, so what?" He said in a condescending tone.

"This..." Handed out the trash.

The man raised an eyebrow. "We don't know each other, so I can't accept this housewarming gift."

"This is your garbage." She pursed her mouth.

"...No wonder it looks familiar to me."

"Please don't put the garbage in front of my house every day. The garbage collection site is next to the parking lot. If you can't find it, please ask the director of the community."

"okay, I get it."

After finishing speaking, the door was slammed shut in front of him.

Yufan was dumbfounded, was this person's politeness eaten by a pig?After all, he is also his neighbor. If we want to live together in the future, can't he be more polite?Yufan doesn't force him to be amiable, but he should always maintain basic courtesy.

He decided to ring the bell again.

"What's wrong!" He opened the door and yelled again.

"You didn't take the garbage back." Yufan didn't care whether he picked it up or not, and threw the garbage into the entrance of his house, saying, "Goodbye, I hope you have a bad day!"

Not forgetting to make a face at him, Yufan closed the door for him without waiting for him to do anything, and left angrily.

In the entrance, Yufan's new neighbor was stunned for a while after being attacked by "Grimace".

"Darling?"

The blond female companion, wrapped in the quilt that was taken off the bed, walked to his side and put her arms around his waist.

"What are you doing? Did you forget that I was still waiting for you on the bed? You left me alone."

As the woman spoke, she kissed him on the back, and even bit the well-developed bicep on his arm with her mouth open.

The man recovered slightly and frowned.

"He's making faces at me?"

"Huh? Who made a face at you? Is that person an elementary school student? How childish!"

The man shook his head.

Although the other party looked very young, he was definitely not a primary school student.

Brown chestnut flying hair, fair face, and neutral facial features—compared with many young male idols on TV, the degree of "cuteness" is no less "cute".

"Okay, let's go back to bed, it's so cold standing in the porch!" the woman said coquettishly.

The man hummed noncommittally. "Don't bother me, I'm going to make a phone call." After being interrupted, the man's "sexual" interest now needs a little time to recover.

"Hou! Cheng Kefei, if you don't go back to bed with me now, don't regret it. I'll put on my clothes and leave!"

"Please."

It's just a shot, is it necessary to be so serious?The man yawned, stretched, walked to the living room, picked up the microphone, and dialed an extension number.

"Hello, My Love Community Management Center. 』

"Is the Director General here?"

"Oh, Mr. Cheng, wait a moment! 』The moment he heard the man's voice, the woman who answered the phone raised her voice a few notches and became sweeter.

But the man now only wants to figure out one thing.

"Mr. Cheng, I am the director-general. What advice do you have?" 』

"Did you tell the cleaning staff to remember to come up and collect the garbage in front of my house?"

"Yes, yes, yes! ’ The director-general hurriedly said on the other end: ‘I’ve said it.But the cleaning staff said that there is no garbage to collect in front of your house, and they also asked me if you took it out yourself... Excuse me, is there any problem? 』

Cheng Kefei arched his eyebrows, it was obvious where the problem was.

His neighbor next door is obviously very enthusiastic, overly enthusiastic, seeing the garbage in the hallway, even if it is not his house, he will take it out like a chicken.

As everyone knows, he took away the job of the community cleaners, and indignantly assumed that it was not littering without clarifying the facts.

But I didn't expect that in today's Taipei, such a rare species of "anxious and righteous" can be found, otherwise he would not leave the garbage outside the door.

"It's okay. Tell them not to bother, I will take out the garbage myself from now on."

He didn't want to be pointed and scolded by that fancy-dressed, inexplicable neighborhood boy again, acting like he was someone ignorant.

Linsen North Road, where the lights are just beginning, is also the time when many small hotels, KTVs and clubs start to operate.The street was deserted during the daytime, just like a pure girl who put on a mature and charming cheongsam at night, showing off her graceful figure, attracting many admiring eyes, and the more nights there were more people's voices.

Although there are many sensual venues here, attracting a steady stream of customers, the competition for business is relatively fierce.

For some taverns and small nightclubs with little capital, hidden in buildings, or in remote alleys, the operators will do their best to provide guests with entertainment methods and fancy games that are different from ordinary stores.If you don't have fresh ideas, you can only wait to be eliminated.Here, old ones will be replaced with new ones every three to five months to half a year, and a bunch of poor businesses will be closed down.

Some stores with strong capital strength dare not be negligent.Every once in a while, it will be redecorated with great fanfare, and a new batch of waitresses will be replaced, so as to make the old customers feel fresh and attract new customers.

Most of the stores here focus on male customers, but in view of the improvement of modern women's independent economic capabilities, in recent years, some stores that specialize in entertaining female customers have sprung up like mushrooms—that is, commonly known as male public relations. shop.

Among them, the time-honored store "Sudan" is a well-known male public relations store. It is one of the best in the industry in terms of its luxurious storefront and the level of male public relations and the number of people in the store. Deng Yufan works in this store.

Deng Yufan walked to the intersection diagonally opposite to "Sudan", and when he saw the store manager nicknamed "Uncle Wan" folded his hands on his chest and looked around angrily, he knew that this time he probably couldn't avoid cleaning the toilet for a month. punished.

What should come, will come sooner or later.

With the awareness that he would be scolded, Deng Yufan walked towards Uncle Wan.

"Deng, Yu, Fan!"

His shoulders flinched.

"What time is it now, do you know? You think we are McDonald's, open 24 hours, you can come to work anytime?"

Uncle Wan raised his lotus finger, pointed at his nose, and began to scold him.

"I didn't go to dinner with the guests, and you can be late three times a week. You are so busy! Also, other people work until [-]:[-] in the morning, but you insist on only going to twelve o'clock. Well, since I promised first, I don't care about this with you. But you have already left work earlier than others, and you are also late than others, do you want to do this job? Tell me!"

Deng Yufan nodded immediately. "I like this job, Uncle Wan."

"Like? You really can't see your liking." Awan patted his chest and said proudly: "If you are like me, you will always be the first to go to work and the last to leave. I love my job! Learn from it, brat!"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was wrong..." mumbled.

Ah Wan saw that Deng Yufan was scolded and his face was full of frustration, and his delicate face was stewed into a bitter gourd by the sad emotions. He couldn't bear it, and most of his anger disappeared.

"Okay, let's go to work quickly. A customer has appointed you to sit at the table, and they have been waiting for you for a long time!"

Raise a disbelieving face. "Is there a guest for me?"

"Yes!" This should be the first time that Deng Yufan has been appointed by a female customer to sit on the stage after Deng Yufan came to work here. "I'll bring a bottle of champagne to your table later. Thank you very much for giving you this opportunity to sit on the table."

"Well, I definitely will!"

Brilliantly displaying a bright smiling flower with the power of tens of thousands of candles, Deng Yufan completely forgot the frustration of the previous moment, and said vigorously: "I, Deng Yufan, will report to the guests right away! Salute the officer! After the salute, put it down!"

Awan wanted to laugh when he saw it.

This silly boy, ever since he became obsessed with military dramas, he thought he was in a military camp all day long, saluting at every turn, no different from a sixth grader.

In fact, Yufan's brain is really stupid.

He couldn't help but think of the process of recruiting Yufan back then...

"How is it? Ah Wan, isn't this young boy born very decent? You "Sudan" are short of one of his type right now. With his face, he will definitely impress the maternal instincts of a bunch of mothers. He will definitely soon Become a red card in your store, a future cash cow, trust me."

The man patted Deng Yufan who was sitting next to him, and said, "Here, this is Uncle Wan, the store manager, let's say hello!"

After entering the door, Deng Yufan kept looking around like a child who couldn't sit still.He looked back excitedly, and bowed obediently to Awan.

"Hello, Uncle Wan."

"Hmm..." Awan looked at Deng Yufan suspiciously, and asked the man in a low voice, "Hey, where did you find him? I think he looks weird."

"Strange? What's weird? Why don't I think so?"

Awan didn't know how to describe it.Obviously sweet and handsome in appearance, slightly thin in physique, but still tall, there is no problem in terms of appearance.But looking at his expression like an innocent little boy, it gives people a sense of disobedience that his words and deeds do not match his age.

"Hey, are you worried that I will extort a high amount of referral fees from you, so you are deliberately picking on the bones?" Unhappy, the man put on a straight face. "Tell you, if you don't like him, I can take him to another store to apply. Like "Mengmeng" or "Flower Boy", they must have signed him without saying a word!"

Men are brokers who specialize in looking for handsome men and beautiful women on the street, asking them if they are willing to work in high-paying sensual places, and if they are willing, they will introduce them to work in high-end public relations shops.

The source of income for this type of broker is the agency fee paid to them by the public relations hotel after the introduction is successful.According to the different levels of the "newcomers" they introduce, the introduction fees they get also vary.As for the level of this newcomer, it all depends on the identification of the hotel's mother Sang or the store manager.

Some people may wonder whether Mama Sang or the store manager will deliberately lower the level of the newcomer in order to save the introduction fee?However, such a low-level method can easily offend a skilled broker.Once the reputation of dishonesty spreads in the industry, the brokers will deliberately not leave the best newcomers to the industry in the future, and even bring them directly to competitors' stores. After all, they will suffer the loss.

"Don't jump to the conclusion right away, they didn't say I don't like it..."

Hearing the name of the opponent's store, Awan immediately comforted him.

"Let's take a look at his resume. Height 21... Weight [-]... Age [-]... The favorite is small animals... Huh? Did you only graduate from junior high school?"

Deng Yufan tilted his head, showing a puzzled expression at his surprised question.

"I've finished all the books I should have read. Mommy said I don't need to continue studying."

"Some people just don't like to study, so what does that matter? Ah, otherwise, how far have you studied? University? Graduate school? I think it's a supplementary school in a prison!" the broker said sarcastically.

But these days, if you don’t like studying anymore, you can get a high school diploma as long as you spend money... Ah Wan thought to himself: Is it because I think too much?Maybe he stopped reading because he was poor.

"I like reading, but I don't like taking exams. The class is very fun. The girls in the class will help me tie my hair and teach me how to make up. Ah, I miss you so much! After graduation, I will not have the opportunity to meet you I really want to go back to class again." Smiling, Deng Yufan began to fold the tissues on the table.

This child... the sense of disobedience in Ah Wan's heart gradually had an answer.Could it be that the brain is not very bright?

"Let me ask you, why do you want to work here?"

Although the brain is not bright enough, if there is no problem in coping with daily life and taking care of oneself, it looks like an ordinary person.

"Because... I want to rely on my face to make a living!" Deng Yufan said with a smile, "This uncle said that I can make a lot of money with this face, so I came here. Uncle, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

"Huh? Of course I didn't lie to you." The man turned to Awan and said, "Okay, okay, you make a decision quickly! Whether you want to sign a contract or not, it's a word."

In the end, he still signed a contract with Deng Yufan.

Up to now, Awan is still doubting whether he made a wrong decision?

The problem is not Deng Yufan's IQ.Later, Awan knew that his level could only be said to be a little stupid, but it was not to the level of being listed as a handicap or needing to go to an enlightenment class.

The problem is Deng Yufan's personality.

To put it bluntly, this line is a place to sweeten the female guests and let them relieve their stress.A male publicist does not necessarily have to be eloquent and artificial, but he should be careful not to say anything that will spoil the mood of the guests, let alone make the guests angry.

But Yufan is a silly boy who doesn't know the skills of speaking at all, and he doesn't know how to beat around the bush. He has arranged for Yufan to serve in the boxes of the seniors as the younger brother of pouring water several times. And if you offend the customer, the more you help, the more busy you are.The senior cowherd in the store, someone asked Ah Wan not to let Deng Yufan serve at his table.

Ah Wan didn't blame them, if it was him, he probably wouldn't want the good client he had worked so hard to get, but because of the unintentional and straightforward speech of the younger brother of pouring water, the female customer was so angry that he would never come to the door again.

That kid, is there really a way to make a living in this circle?

Deng Yufan has only been working in "Sudan" for two or three months, and Ah Wan is already feeling uneasy, because the work contract he signed with Yufan is for two years, and he was paid 50 yuan for the installation fee as a signing bonus.If Deng Yufan didn't succeed in the past two years, not only would he lose the 50 that he was paid, but if the broker's introduction fee of 20 was added, the loss would be even greater.

So not long after the store opened today, a female customer came to the door, and when Deng Yufan was appointed to sit on the stage, Ah Wan was so happy that he almost shed tears.

——Even if the "designation" of the female guest is just looking at the photos on the wall, it's a little casual.

But "designation" is "designation", and Deng Yufan finally has the first seat fee that can go into his pocket.

Awan happily watched his back as he walked into the store, hoping that the happy events will be linked together, and that he can be in the same business after he gets married! ……Huh?What is that kid carrying?

"Wait a minute, Deng Yufan!"

Awan hurriedly ran and ran after him.That stupid boy actually went to meet the guests with two bags of garbage!It's terrible!
