Chapter 155 - 155:1 Really Can’t Hold Back My Laughter
Wen Yanqing sent a good morning message the next day, but there was no reply.
Lin Gantang wore a scarf to cover the hickeys, but the small wound on her lips could not be covered no matter what. Hence, she took out a mask and covered half of her face.
Mr. Lin, who was unwilling to be dragged to a checkup, looked at her and asked, “Why are you suddenly wearing a mask?”
“It’s to protect against viruses, since we’re going to the hospital. Dad, you wear it too.” Lin Gantang took out another one and gave it to Mr. Lin without changing her expression.
“I’ll wear it when we get to the hospital.”
The two of them did not spend much time in the hospital for a simple physical examination. The results of the report were good. Mr. Lin’s blood fat index was normal.
Mr. Lin was going to play golf with his good friends; Lin Gantang planned to go to the pet rescue center.
Just as she was about to leave, Bei Bei called. “Gantang, do you still want stray cats? 1 caught two more.”
“… Did you poke a stray cat nest?”
Despite complaining, Lin Gantang still went to Bei Bei’s house.
Bei Bei was waiting for her outside. The cats were locked in a cage. She brought Lin Gantang to take a look.
“I was scared when I hurt the grey cat last time. I took a look before starting my car and found two fellows wandering around.” Bei Bei rubbed her hands to keep warm. “The weather is cold. Cats are hiding everywhere to keep warm. 1 used ham sausages to lure them into the cage.”
“Ragdoll cat?” Lin Gantang looked at the cage. “Are Ragdoll cats wandering around these days?”
“What?” Bei Bei was even more surprised. She stared at the dirty, skinny, and unrecognizable cat. “I can only tell that the one next to it is an American Shorthair. 1 thought that putting a variety of cats in your bookstore might attract some human traffic, so I called you here.”
Lin Gantang didn’t expect Bei Bei to call her over for this reason. She felt her heart soften. “Thankyou, Bei Bei.”
“It’s a small matter. Do you want to take them away?”
“Okay, I’ll send them to the pet hospital first. The Ragdoll’s skin condition needs to be checked.”
“I happen to be free. Why don’t I go with you?”
The two of them went to the pet hospital for a checkup.
Pet cats like the Ragdoll and American Shorthair, after being abandoned, would not have enough food, living in the open. Even if they found food, they might not be able to beat the wild cats that had been stray cats since young. Even if they were lucky enough to survive the winter, they would eventually starve to death.
These two cats had been wandering around for a long time. They were emaciated and had lost their hair. They were very ugly. No one would be willing to adopt them.
The pet doctor said that the Ragdoll’s skin disease needed to be treated properly. Lin Gantang was afraid that it would infect other cats, so she temporarily placed it there.
The American Shorthair was a little skinny but, other than that, it was still in good health.
That night, Mr. Lin found out that she had brought back a cat. He asked, “Do you want me to help you find an empty house to raise cats and find someone to take care of them?”
“No need. I’ll bring it back to the bookstore after it’s isolated,” Lin Gantang said. “There will probably be new owners who will adopt the cats in the future. If there aren’t any, 1’11 just keep them in the bookstore.”
It was said that people would become more peaceful when they spent more time with animals. Mr. Lin gradually realized that, when she was taking care of cats, Lin Gantang’s personality was purer and calmer than before.
This was a result that Mr. Lin was happy to see.
Therefore, Mr. Lin said, “Since you like cats so much, why don’t you keep a few at home? Tongtong likes them too. After the child is born, there will be someone at home to take care of him. He’ll be looked after and won’t get injured.”
“Brother doesn’t agree.” Lin Gantang pointed out the key point.
“He’s nothing.” Mr. Lin snorted. “The doctor said that toxoplasma gondii oocysts are mainly in feces. It’s most important to pay attention to hand hygiene and to consume cooked food. Did Lin Zhaonan eat cat feces and get infected?”
“Pfft…”
Brother, I’m sorry. 1 really couldn’t help but laugh..
