Before she can explain that her stray isn’t a purebred and the puppies might not have much value, You Ran interjects, “From now on, I’ll be troubling you with Qianqian and me.”
“Ah?” Shen Shen thinks she misheard, blinking, her nose and lips trembling, “What did you just say?”
You Ran just smiles lightly, “It’s Qianqian’s first pregnancy, and I know nothing about it.”
“It’s only natural that you take care of him, given your profession.” Shen Qian thought this was quite reasonable. Qingqing coughed lightly and swallowed, “Then…”
“I have an eye condition, and Qianqian is my specially trained guide dog. You should understand how important a guide dog is to someone who is blind.” You Ran continued to smile, seemingly harmless, and appeared quite composed. But for Shen Qian, these words were hard to digest. The middle-aged man beside them looked utterly bewildered. He knew about Young Master You Ran. Ever since You Ran went blind, he had been by his side. You Ran was very particular about cleanliness and disliked being touched by others unless absolutely necessary, generally avoiding contact with people as much as possible. But the behavior just now, not to mention You Ran initiating it, and that rare smile, was enough to leave the middle-aged man stunned. Now, to come up with such a far-fetched excuse was beyond his comprehension.
Shen Qian gritted her teeth, unsure of how to respond. However, You Ran maintained a calm demeanor, with a handsome arc at the corner of his mouth. Although his gaze was unfocused, it always gave one the illusion that he was looking at her…
“Definitely, definitely.” Shen Qian nodded, her face showing a hint of awkwardness, rarely feeling forced. You Ran seemed to sense this but responded with a gentle laugh, “Then, could Miss Shen Qian leave a phone number for future contact?”
Shen Qian patted her butt, pouting, “I don’t have a business card.”
You Ran extended his palm, “Write it on here.”
“No pen.” Shen Qian stared blankly at the slender, piano-playing hand in front of her.
“No problem, just gesture it out, and I’ll know.” You Ran smiled back.
