"My Naiba doesn't like canned food," Ning Feng said as he stood up.

"My Naiba likes sausages. I don't let her eat them though, 'cause that stuff's no good. I've been thinking whether I should buy a pack and feed her some." Ning Feng looked seriously troubled. Sausages weren't good for dogs—especially for Naiba. He always picked out the best food to keep her looking this good. Just one pack of sausage could make a ton of hair fall out.

"Think about who's delivering it. I'll get Naima to bring the can over. You follow behind and say you asked Naima to help out. Naiba probably won't be mad anymore." Naiba wasn't like Naima. Naima was a mutt with a strong stomach—snacks wouldn't bother him.

"Solid plan," Ning Feng nodded. As long as Naiba saw Naima, all her anger would probably disappear.

"Go call Naima over. Have him deliver the canned food for me—I'll pay you the price of ten cans," Ning Feng ran outside calling for Naima.

"Pay first," Fang Yi held out his hand.

"Stingy." Ning Feng pulled some bills from his wallet and stuffed them into Fang Yi's hand. "Keep the change."

Fang Yi gave instructions to Naima, then took Pei Haoyan to grab the canned food. Pei Datou had been through a lot today, so Fang Yi grabbed two cans for him.

"Datou, I promise I won't ever force you to do anything you don't want to again, okay? Please don't stay mad," Pei Haoyan said as he sat next to Pei Datou, watching him eat the canned food and repenting.

Pei Datou finished one can, then walked over and nuzzled Pei Haoyan's hand—guess that meant he forgave him.

"That's why I love Pei Datou so much. He forgives people so easily. Just a little bit of kindness and he'll remember it forever. Back then I accidentally ate his favorite cookies, and he's been leaving me half ever since. Still does it now." Pei Haoyan looked emotional. After spending so much time with animals, people just started to feel exhausting—too much to think about.

"Then don't force him into stuff like that again. Think about it—if someone forced you to do something like that, would you be happy?" Fang Yi said while brushing Pei Datou's fur. Of all the ones involved today, Pei Datou was the most wronged. He hadn't done a single thing and still ended up getting bitten by Naiba.

"I'll be more careful," Pei Haoyan nodded. He really shouldn't have let his desires get the better of him just because Naiba was good-looking.

"Big Brother Fang, I have something I want to discuss with you," Pei Sisi walked over and greeted him. That one "Big Brother Fang" made Fang Yi's skin crawl.

"Call me 'boss' or just 'Fang Yi.'" Being called "big brother" by such a pretty woman made him feel like he was cheating on someone.

"You're so ungrateful," Pei Sisi's smile vanished. "I really admire what you're doing. I want to help manage your foundation—no pay, not a single cent from you. As long as all income and expenses are fully transparent, I'm good with it. What do you say?"

"That's probably not a good idea..." Even if Pei Sisi offered to work for free, Fang Yi still got major unreliable vibes.

"Let me make you a promise—so long as I'm alive, I'll keep managing the foundation. Is that enough for you?" Pei Sisi said seriously.

"Are you nuts, Sis?" Pei Haoyan stared at her in disbelief. His sister was about to start working at the company in a few days, and now she wanted to manage Fang Yi's foundation too? Was she trying to work herself to death?

"I'm not crazy. Also—this guy." Pei Sisi pulled Pei Haoyan up and continued talking to Fang Yi, "He's an artist. Already kinda famous, and he's only gonna get better. I'm giving him to your shop, too. Whatever you need, just call him."

"Wait, what..." Why was he suddenly being given away like a bonus gift?

"You... what's going on?" Just yesterday, Pei Sisi had been super wary of him. Now she wanted to help with the foundation and toss her brother in as extra help?

"A pet shop like yours—I could open ten without breaking a sweat. But I don't have your heart. That's why I could never make a place like this work. What I can do is take care of the money side so you can focus on doing what matters most," Pei Sisi said, completely serious.

"You're seriously crazy," Pei Haoyan grabbed his sister and started shaking her. "What demon possessed my sister?! Come out! Come out right now!"

"Get lost. I'm talking business," Pei Sisi slapped Pei Haoyan across the face and shoved him aside.

"You're not possessed? Then what's gotten into you, Sis? Why are you suddenly so into helping him build a foundation?" Pei Haoyan still wasn't buying it.

"I've told you my dream a million times—what, you forgot? Want me to say it again?" Pei Sisi reached for his ear, ready to twist it.

"I remember, but how do you know the boss is the person you've been looking for?" Pei Haoyan still couldn't believe it. Sure, he also thought Fang Yi was a good guy, but trusting him this fast?

"I saw a few things. That's all it took," Pei Sisi said. "I'll explain more later. For now, go play somewhere else." She shoved him away again and turned back to Fang Yi. "My family's rich. With me backing you, your foundation won't lose a single cent. If you think this place isn't big enough and want to expand, I can even buy up the surrounding land. What do you think?"

"Are you... running a fever?" Fang Yi asked, reaching out to feel her forehead. It didn't feel warm, but he couldn't shake the feeling that Pei Sisi had been possessed—probably by one of the shop's animals. No one in their right mind, no matter how rich, would offer up money like this to someone they'd only known for two days.

"Da Huang... Naima... Naiba... Bandit..." Fang Yi called out a few names, testing.

"White Jade Bean... Chickpea.. Peanut... Melon Seed..." He didn't give up, calling out more.

"I'm being serious," Pei Sisi snapped, finally realizing that Fang Yi thought she'd been possessed—especially when he got to "Peanut" and "Melon Seed." She looked like she was about to explode.

"Uh... I'll find someone else to help with the foundation. You really don't need to go out of your way," Fang Yi said quickly. Just the thought of her helping build the foundation was already a bit much. Talking about buying land on top of that? Definitely a joke—though not a funny one. Land around here was insanely expensive.

"You... just you wait!" Pei Sisi, furious that Fang Yi still didn't believe her, stormed off in a huff.

"You're done for now," Pei Haoyan said with a grin, clearly enjoying the drama. "You actually managed to piss off my sister. Just wait till my brother, my cousin, my other cousin... all come looking for you."
