After asking many people, Gu Yan finally found the last rescue center for stray animals in Annan City.
Gu Yan was so surprised that everyone here treated her very warmly, as if she was a VIP. She was very confused.
The one who was ready to welcome Gu Yan was an old lady who was the director of the rescue center.
Everyone would become nervous about the unknown, including Gu Yan. She hesitated for a while when she reached the gate of the rescue center. At this moment, Gu Yan thought of the news about human traffickers, organ sales organizations and the like that she had watched before.
The more Gu Yan thought, the more scared she was when she looked at the center in front of her.
When the director of the rescue center in front of Gu Yan saw her expression, she knew what Gu Yan was thinking, and secretly scolded herself about the overreaction, which almost screwed up the task her master told to her.
The director turned back to Gu Yan and said, “Miss, do you think I am overzealous? Don’t worry. Everyone comes here will be warmly received, because people who come here are kind and sympathetic. They deserve our hospitality.”
Gu Yan smiled awkwardly when the director directly spoke out what Gu Yan was worried about. Since the director said it, Gu Yan thought she should also ask the director directly. Therefore, she said, “Do you mean that you will receive everyone fostering a pet?”
The old lady said with a smile, “Of course not.”
Gu Yan was relieved. If the director answered “Yes”, she would leave here without hesitation.
Gu Yan had run a studio and she knew exactly that the leader of an institution was always as busy as a bee, so the director must be a liar if she said she received everyone in person. Gu Yan would leave without any hesitation because the director must have ulterior motives.
That was why Gu Yan was relieved when she heard the director’s negative answer. Now Gu Yan was confused that why the director would receive her in person.
The director could read what Gu Yan was thinking and said to her, “Don’t worry. I find that the older I grow, the more I like small animals. Every week, I usually find some time to look after them by myself and that’s why we meet each other today. You don’t need to worry.”
Gu Yan was relieved after hearing what the director said. Looking at the old director’s sincere and kind face, Gu Yan smiled and said, “You are really a kind person!”
The director got relieved that she gained the trust of Gu Yan and did not let the cat out of the bag. The director shook her head and said, “Thank you. There aren’t many good-hearted young people like you!”
Gu Yan was a little embarrassed and smiled to her.
Gu Yan followed the director into the center and everything went very smoothly with the help of her, like registering, health examination for the dog, vaccine injection and so on.
After finishing all the procedures, Gu Yan was reluctant to leave. Staring at the puppy, she said, “Director, can I come back here to see the puppy in the future?”
The director said, “Sure, you can come at any time, but I’m afraid you have to contact the puppy’s owner when it is adopted.”
Gu Yan said happily, “OK, I will. Thank you, director.”
The director shook her head and said, “Please allow me to take some rest. It is easy for me to feel tired at my age. Just take your time. It seems that the puppy likes you very much.”
Looking at the puppy in a cage, Gu Yan didn’t know why she liked it so much even if they just met each other today. They got along so well. Gu Yan would have taken the puppy home if she hadn’t been homeless.
“Just get some rest. It is important for one to have a healthy body.” Gu Yan said.
The director looked at Gu Yan for several seconds and slowly walked away.
Gu Yan noticed that the director looked at her strangely, but she didn’t think much about it. In her eyes, the director was just like a kind granny.
After the director left, Gu Yan squatted down, looked at the dog, and said, “Poor puppy, don’t worry. You will not be abandoned and will not suffer from cold and hunger. People here will take care of you. It won’t take you long to meet a good owner…”
Perhaps it was because they were all homeless. Gu Yan said many blessings to the dog, including the prospect of a happy and wonderful future.
Gu Yan was talking to the dog. These words sounded like a farewell. In the meantime, these words were more like Gu Yan’s best wishes.
The moment when the director returned to her room, she did not take a rest, but made a phone call. “Hello, master! I have got everything done.” She said.
A man’s voice came from the phone. Exactly, it was Qi Changfeng who had watched Gu Yan silently in the park!
“Sorry to trouble you. Thank you so much.” Qi Changfeng felt a little sorry and said politely to the director.
The old director said with a smile, “You’re welcome. This young woman is smart. I almost let the cat out of the bag.”
“Really?” Qi Changfeng was surprised that Gu Yan was not only beautiful but also smart.
“By the way, I wonder that why you are so interested in her, master. It’s rare for you to do that.” The old director and Qi Changfeng seemed to be intimate. They talked with each other as if they were families.
“Well, I just think she is interesting!” Qi Changfeng said in a calm way and didn’t show anything unusual.
“Maybe.” The old director said with a knowing smile.
“The young woman is good-natured and is good in all respects. She perhaps can be your girlfriend.” The director added.
Qi Changfeng pretended not to get the implication of her words and said, “Go and get some rest. It’s time for you to have a rest.”
After those words, Qi Changfeng hung up the phone without hesitation.
Glancing in Gu Yan’s direction, the old director thought to herself, “She is interesting? Well, I know you’re interested in her. However, the young woman seems to have something on her mind. Just pray she’s still single.”
The old lady burst out laughing when she thought that Qi Changfeng would be upset if the young woman had a boyfriend. If things went that way, it would be interesting, because Qi Changfeng seldom put himself in that kind of situation.
