"Do you think these cats and dogs have no brains? They have been wandering outside for so long, they must have assessed the situation. No matter what Naima promised them, our attitude is the most important." Fang Yi said very seriously.

"I know, but you've said this once or twice—do you even realize how many times you've repeated it? Naima has picked up more than a thousand small animals, which means you've said it at least five hundred times! Please have some mercy on my ears. I've already made these words part of the store rules—what more do you want?"

Fang Yue chose to work at Fang Yi's small shop because she loved animals. After meeting Naima and the others, she liked them even more, though she wasn't as dedicated as Fang Yi. While she found his constant reminders annoying, she failed to realize that she said the exact same things whenever she handed pets over to the doctors.

"You can sprinkle insect repellent powder in the backyard yourself. I will find someone to help you re-deworm the animals in the backyard the day after tomorrow. But you must get rid of the mice in the shop.

"Recently, there are cats everywhere in the shop, and all the mice have been caught. Several shop owners next door came to send us some food, saying that our cats went to their store and caught all the mice.

"In fact, it is the nature of cats to catch mice. I have no objection, but can you stop them from piling up dozens of mice in the backyard? I was so upset when I put cat food and dog food!" Fang Yue said, and felt goose bumps on her body again.

"I'll take it away later when most of the cats are asleep." Fang Yi said a little embarrassedly when talking about mice.

"Hehe, I know. Are those mice left for you? If you throw them out so heartlessly, the cats in the shop will definitely be angry. Why don't I check the recipe for you and try whether the mice are better steamed or braised." Fang Yue was gloating when she spoke.

Cats were naturally arrogant. If they caught mice for you to eat, it meant they liked you. But if you refused their 'gift,' you'd better be prepared to get scratched. The dozens of mice in the backyard were likely the result of the hard work of dozens of cats. If they found out that Fang Yi had simply thrown away the prey they had caught with such effort, they would be furious...

"Why are you still talking so much? I'll call and tell uncle that you've been nagging again recently." Fang Yi looked at Fang Yue's face and knew what she was thinking.

"I won't say anything. Anyway, you can do it yourself." Fang Yue covered her mouth and laughed for a while, coughed, and said to Fang Yi, "I have something serious to tell you. I won't go to work tomorrow morning. I want to take a leave."

"Why?"

"My idol's movie will be released tomorrow. I'm going to book the whole venue to support him." Fang Yue smiled like a fangirl.

Seeing Fang Yue like this, Fang Yi suddenly remembered the Weibo matter. It seemed that Du Qianze hadn't posted it yet.

After sending all the new members in the backyard out, Fang Yi didn't even have time to clean up the mice, so he ran to Fang Yue and asked Fang Yue if she had checked Weibo recently.

"Why?" Fang Yi's question made Fang Yue very confused.

"Come on, come on, let me tell you something." Fang Yi pulled Fang Yue into the lounge, then looked around to make sure there was no one there, then closed the door, sat next to Fang Yue, and said to Fang Yue earnestly, "I'm going to tell you something, don't be so excited later."

"You say." Fang Yue replied indifferently.

"Your idol, his s*xual orientation is the same as yours." Fang Yi said to Fang Yue cautiously.

"Really?" Fang Yue turned back suddenly, scaring Fang Yi.

"Really, when I came back, he was about to post on Weibo publicly." Fang Yi replied, then quietly took a few tissues and prepared to hand them to Fang Yue later.

"Hehehehe..." Fang Yue laughed a few times very strangely, then got up and ran out, saying as she ran, "I said that my idol likes men, but my little apprentice didn't believe it, she looked so upset, I'll go tell my apprentice."

Before Fang Yi could react, Fang Yue had already run out.

Fang Yi was originally going to tell Fang Yue not to talk nonsense, but thinking that Du Qianze would probably post on Weibo soon, he didn't care. However, he couldn't understand Fang Yue's attitude.

Did Fang Yue really not have a crush on Du Qianze? Then why was she so attentive to Du Qianze? He was only six years older than Fang Yue, not too old, so why was his idea so different from Fang Yue's?

"Answer me honestly." Fang Yi found Fang Yue in front of the computer. Sure enough, Fang Yue was playing games again and sending private messages to her little apprentice.

"What?" Fang Yue replied absent-mindedly when the little apprentice was not online.

"Don't you like Du Qianze very much?"

"Yes, I like him very much. He looks good, so it's normal for me to like him, right?" After confirming that the little apprentice was really not online, Fang Yue turned around and said to Fang Yi.

"You... like him, so you don't mind... the fact that he likes... men?"

"I don't care, I like him just because of his face, and because he is a couple with another male celebrity. Later, he came to the pet shop, and I thought he was a good guy, so I called him an idol every day. You must have thought too much, thinking that I have a crush on him, right?" Fang Yue pointed at Fang Yi and asked.

"You treat him so well, isn't it normal for me to have some doubts?" Fang Yi said confidently.

"Oh!" Fang Yue shook her head, "Only idiots like you can't tell the difference between liking and loving. I feel sad for the person who has a crush on you."

"Is it hard to tell?" Fang Yi returned to the backyard and thought to himself, 'It wasn't hard to tell at all. Just like the cat in the backyard—if it liked you, it would play with you. But if it loved you, when it caught a mouse, it would think about bringing one to you.'

After dinner, Fang Yi quietly cleaned up the mice in the backyard while the cats in the yard were sleeping. Naima stood guard nearby to prevent cats from watching. After dealing with the mice, Fang Yi took Naima back to the room and was stopped by Fang Yue. Fang Yue smiled evilly again and asked him if he was going back to the room, but didn't say anything else.

When approaching the room, Naima walked slower and slower, and fell far behind Fang Yi.
