Adorable Pet Daily Life Ch. 63

The man walked in, glanced around the hospital, and said, "Looks like a place with some real heart."

He really knew how to talk. Shen Luo's hospital wasn't as well-equipped as Nie Changfeng's, so the guy probably didn't know how else to compliment it and just went with that line.

"Mister, is it your dog that needs something?"

The man looked around and didn't spot Zhen Tian. Snapping back to attention, he said, "Ah—no, I actually came by just to thank you."

"Thank us?" Zheng Jiamei looked a little confused and quickly went to call Shen Luo out.

Shen Luo hadn't seen this guy before, but he did recognize the dog. One look and he knew what this was about—but he still pretended not to.

"She said you came to thank us. What for, exactly?"

The man glanced at Shen Luo and said, "Wasn't it your dog who donated blood at the sister pet hospital a while ago?"

Shen Luo nodded. "Yeah, though that was already a few months back."

The man smiled and said, "My dog just recently recovered, so I came by today to thank you in person."

Shen Luo put on a look of sudden realization. "So it was your dog. How's he doing now?"

"He's fully recovered. If it hadn't been for your dog donating blood, my Duke wouldn't be doing this well. I'm really grateful. Director Nie told me that pet blood donors are a lot harder to find than human ones."

Shen Luo politely exchanged a few more words with him. After some back and forth, they started to get a bit more familiar.

Shen Luo noticed that this German Shepherd had great physical traits, but since it hadn't gone through proper training, it didn't quite have Zhen Tian's commanding presence.

"I heard you have a German Shepherd here too. Would it be possible for me to see him?"

Shen Luo said, "Give me a second," and called for Ethan, telling him to go find Zhen Tian. Zhen Tian was usually out on his walk around this time. Ever since he caught that thief, it was like he'd found a new purpose—he had to make his rounds around the pet hospital every day, and a lot of people there knew him now.

Ethan ran off, and the man watched him go, then said, "That dog's not bad either."

Shen Luo replied, "Ethan's one of our best dogs here."

The conversation circled back to the German Shepherd. The dog's brown eyes glanced at Shen Luo now and then, like it kind of understood what was going on.

Before long, Zhen Tian came back with Ethan trotting beside him. Zhen Tian and Ethan got along surprisingly well—which, honestly, still caught Shen Luo off guard sometimes.

The moment that man saw Zhen Tian, he locked eyes on him, and Shen Luo couldn't help but feel that stare was a little intense. But Zhen Tian looked totally natural, clearly not sensing any danger, so Shen Luo just stood by and watched carefully.

Zhen Tian walked up next to Shen Luo, as if asking, You looking for me?

Shen Luo pointed at the man and his dog and said, "This gentleman wanted to meet you."

Zhen Tian seemed to understand and turned his head to look at the man. The man clearly hadn't expected Zhen Tian to be so human-like either and was stunned for a second before smiling and saying, "He really is smart."

Shen Luo said, "Zhen Tian is definitely very smart—smarter than most dogs I've seen."

German Shepherds were already known for being intelligent and highly self-disciplined, which was why they were the top choice for police and military dogs. But they weren't easy for the average person to handle, and with their more fierce look instead of being cute, most people didn't choose them as pets.

The man nodded at what Shen Luo said and spoke to Zhen Tian, "This is my dog, his name's Duke. He's the same breed as you."

The two dogs locked eyes. Duke clearly shrank back a little—Zhen Tian's presence wasn't something just any dog could match.

It was clear the man wanted to let Zhen Tian and Duke get familiar. With the command given, Duke slowly moved closer to Zhen Tian. Zhen Tian glanced at him but didn't really react, so Duke cautiously lay down beside him.

Shen Luo complimented, "Your dog's really smart too!"

The man smiled and said, "Still not as good as Zhen Tian. He's a rare gem. Too bad he's been neutered."

For police and military dogs, neutering was a must—it helped avoid any temperamental changes during heat, which could interfere with training and missions.

Shen Luo patted Zhen Tian. By now, he was the only one in the hospital who could pet him.

"Honestly, for dogs, neutering isn't a bad thing, don't you think?"

The man nodded and said, "You're right."

His own dog was also male. But if Zhen Tian hadn't been neutered, he definitely would've tried everything to find a female Shepherd to breed with him.

Even though Zhen Tian had never really met many dogs who wanted to have puppies with him, he still drew a ton of attention wherever he went. He often ran into unfamiliar female dogs at the park who just wandered over.

The man sat for a bit, looked around the hospital, and had his secretary hand Shen Luo a business card and a paper bag full of money. Then he left with his dog.

Shen Luo held the paper bag and couldn't help but sigh—rich people were just generous. From the feel of it, there was no less than twenty grand in there!

Even though Shen Luo had received part of the treatment cost for that German Shepherd before, this was clearly an extra thank-you gift.

He looked at the business card again and instantly understood why the guy could be so loaded—it was Jin Guodong, the well-known real estate tycoon. The real estate company he founded, Xiaoxiang Garden, was one of the top ones in the country. Shen Luo hadn't expected to cross paths with someone that high up. Luckily, the guy was a dog lover.

Shen Luo carefully tucked away Jin Guodong's black and gold card—not because he planned to contact the man later, but kind of just to show off a bit. Who knew, maybe one day he'd casually pull out that card and shock everyone in the room.

The others didn't know who Jin Guodong really was—just thought he didn't look like your average guy. But since their pet hospital, small as it was, often saw local big shots come through, no one thought it was too weird.

Big Horn's chicks had been born, and aside from Big Beauty's owner, the deputy director of the TV station—who'd mentioned it before—also made a special visit.

The deputy director looked plump and fair, always wearing a smile, giving off a very approachable vibe.
