There's a chat group for pets in my neighborhood.

"It's right there on the most conspicuous counter to the left of the store entrance. Limited quantities available, first come, first served."

Seeing Lu Fang's reply, "I have a renovation plan," he nodded his dog head in satisfaction.

A short while later, footsteps could be heard outside the Hello Pet Shop.

"Sister Qin, please give my eldest son a bath. Same as always, the bath and body care package."

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man with a buzz cut, who looked to be in his early twenties, walked in leading a husky.

The husky looked large and muscular, and rather well-behaved, following its male owner closely.

"Little Ha is here!" Qin Zhuyan greeted him warmly from behind the counter, taking the husky's leash from Jiang Feng's hands.

"Haven't seen you for a few days, you've hired a new person at the shop?" The shop wasn't big, but Jiang Feng spotted Lu Fang standing to the side at a glance and greeted him: "My name is Jiang Feng, I live in Building 1 of Tiancheng Community, I often come here to take Xiao Ha for a bath."

"My name is Lu Fang, and I'm a new apprentice at the shop." Lu Fang looked at the husky, whose blue, intelligent eyes had been constantly scanning the surroundings since it entered the shop, clearly searching for something.

After handing the rope to Qin Zhuyan, Jiang Feng began to wander around the store and immediately spotted the five toy mice on the counter.

He frowned, pointing at the thing with a look of disgust, and said, "Sister Qin, I'm not saying this to be mean, but when did your store's aesthetic sense become like this? This thing is obviously defective. The eyes are even sewn crooked. You're still selling it? It looks really creepy."

Hearing Jiang Feng's complaints, Qin Zhuyan couldn't help but blush. She glared at Lu Fang, who was waiting to watch the show, and gestured for him to quickly put away those ugly things.

But before Lu Fang could move, the husky beneath his feet moved.

When it saw the mouse toy following its owner's gesture, the dog went completely berserk.

"Awoo!"

It suddenly let out a high-pitched wolf howl, kicked off with its hind legs, and its huge body sprawled on the counter. Its front paws gripped the tabletop tightly, and with a wide-open mouth, it accurately snatched the ugliest toy mouse into its mouth.

"grumble--"

The toy was bitten, emitting a crisp and mesmerizing scream.

The scream seemed to trigger a deep mechanism in the husky's soul, and its originally intelligent eyes now looked even more shrewd.

Its tail wagged excitedly like a propeller, and it made a satisfied purring sound from deep in its throat. Instead of tearing the toy apart, it carefully held it in its mouth, as if protecting some precious treasure.

"What are you doing! Spit it out! That thing is so ugly!" Jiang Feng was shocked when he saw this and went up to try to pry open the husky's mouth.

Unexpectedly, the husky, which was usually quite obedient at home, suddenly turned its head away from Jiang Feng's hand, bit the gray rat tightly, and stared at its owner with a protective look, as if to say, "If you dare to try to take it, I'll fight you to the death."

Jiang Feng was completely dumbfounded. He had bought his husky several hundred yuan worth of squeaky balls and genuine leather chew bones, but the dog hadn't even glanced at them. Why was it now so fond of this ugly mouse?!

"Sir, it seems to really like this toy." Lu Fang tried to smooth things over, suppressing a laugh. "Why don't we just let it carry it? We can't take it away from it now anyway."

"Fine then." Jiang Feng looked like he'd seen a ghost, and finally could only nod helplessly: "Let's take a shower."

Qin Zhuyan, who witnessed this scene, gaped in disbelief. She never expected that the gray mouse toy, which she considered extremely ugly, would actually be liked by dogs.

"It's just a coincidence, just a coincidence." She tried her best to convince herself. After all, huskies are quite "intelligent," and their tastes might be different from other dogs, and they might like these strange and unusual things.

(Please remember the website 20 ...

She glanced again at the cute little yellow duck that she hadn't sold in three months, and muttered something.

"What an adorable little yellow duck!"

"Lu Fang, come help me take a bath!" The farce just now was farce, taking a bath is the important thing.

Qin Zhuyan called out to Lu Fang. You should know that giving a husky a bath is like a pig slaughtering scene in the pet world. It will never stop until it howls loudly and splashes you with water.

She had bathed this husky many times, but each time it made a huge commotion. Once, the two even got into a fight in the bathroom.

This is what made Qin Zhuyan think of hiring a male apprentice. There was no other way; there were some big dogs that she, as a girl, really couldn't handle.

"Coming!" Lu Fang responded, leading the husky into the bathroom.

But to Qin Zhuyan's surprise, the anticipated battle between man and dog did not occur; the husky was as well-behaved as a fake dog today.

It allowed Lu Fang to rinse its fur with warm water and lather its body with shower gel, its entire attention focused on the gray mouse in its mouth.

Occasionally, when Lu Fang needs to clean its chin, it carefully spits the mouse on the edge of the water basin, staring at it intently, and immediately picks it up and puts it back in its mouth after the cleaning is finished.

"Amazing..." Qin Zhuyan stood to the side, watching Lu Fang dry the husky's fur with effortless skill, her jaw almost dropping in astonishment.

"Lu Fang, tell me the truth, did you put dog mint in this toy?"

"Huh?" With the hair dryer humming, Lu Fang didn't hear Qin Zhuyan's mutterings.

After drying his fur, he wiped his hands and moved closer to Qin Zhuyan: "Is this husky so well-behaved during a bath? I always remember huskies looking exhausted after a bath, like they've been in a fight."

"Manager, as expected of someone who runs a great pet store, you're really capable."

Qin Zhuyan rolled her eyes at Lu Fang in an annoyed manner.

She had no idea what was going on. Every time she washed her husky, it was a fierce battle. Today, he was strangely docile. Could it be that the gray mouse toy was the reason?

While she was still in a daze, Jiang Feng had already walked over.

"Check out, the shampoo and conditioner set is 120 yuan, right?" With a beep, he had already scanned the QR code: "This... how much is the Grey Mouse?"

To be honest, Jiang Feng really didn't want to buy that ridiculously ugly thing, but he had no choice. The husky had been carrying it all the way here, and it was covered in drool. It was still stubbornly refusing to let go, so he had no choice but to buy it.

Qin Zhuyan paused for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Lu Fang beside her. To be honest, she really didn't know how much to sell something that only cost her two yuan for.

"Thirty," Lu Fang replied calmly and without batting an eye.

"It's 150 yuan." Jiang Feng paid readily, then led his husky, still engrossed in the toy, out of the store, grumbling, "Thirty yuan for this ugly thing? I must be crazy..."

The husky had barely stepped out the door when Lu Fang's phone started vibrating incessantly in his pocket.

I took out my phone and opened the group chat; it was completely in an uproar.

I have a renovation plan: [Images] [Images]

I have a renovation plan: "Guys! I'm your witness! This mouse is incredibly cute, and the texture is amazing! It's so crisp and crunchy when you bite into it! Plus, the texture is so soft, it's so satisfying! I declare this the best gift I've ever received! All those bones and squeaky balls my dad usually buys are utter garbage!"

In the photo, a freshly washed, fluffy husky is proudly holding a wet gray mouse on its nose, its eyes full of smugness.

Legs are 1.8 meters long: Holy crap! I want one too!

Become!

Lu Fang put down his phone and looked at Qin Zhuyan beside him.

"Manager, let's place another twenty orders for those gray rats!"
