Although he was already middle-aged, Hei Zi was still quite handsome. He was wearing a leather jacket and sunglasses. He was tall, tan, and thin, which was quite suited to a portion of the girls’ tastes, and the fact that he was driving a luxury car showed that he had a lot of money.
“Wa! It’s a handsome uncle!”
“Surviving alone in the wilderness? That is very handsome!”
There were a few guys that said, their tone sour, “Actually, men carrying bricks is also very handsome… It’s just that there’s no one looking.”
Hei Zi smiled and waved his hand. “Hello everyone. It’s my first time being live broadcasted… I’m Hei Zi, and I want to make it clear that before I went into the wild, I was not this tan.”
After the fans heard that, they were very troubled. Why was Snowy going around with a middle-aged uncle who liked to survive in the wild?
“Snowy, is it that being a normal outdoor broadcaster was no longer enough for you? You wanted to take up the challenge of broadcasting in the wild?”
“Don’t do it… Broadcasting in the wild sounds very dangerous…”
Snowy chuckled, then turned the camera to herself again. “Although this old expert is very cool, I want to make it clear: I didn’t go with Mr. Hei Zi into the wild. Instead, I’m bringing you guys to a very familiar place! Can you guess where that is? That’s right––it’s the Amazing Fate Pet Shop! Today, because a friend asked me to, I’m bringing Mr. Hei Zi to find a dog that is a suitable partner for him in the wilderness.”
“What the f*ck! We’re going to see the horrible face of that pretentious store manager again? Thank goodness I did not eat breakfast…”
“Eh! No matter what, he’s a popular person in Binhai City. He’s really just using his dog’s power to pretend to be mighty…”
“Snowy, go and trick Famous to come over. If Famous follows Hei Zi into the wild, Bear Grylls would have nothing on them! It sounds good!”
Her loyal fans had seen several live episodes at the Amazing Fate Pet Store, and had even gone there personally. They knew a lot about it. Some of them also knew about dogs. They said, confused, “It’s not a mistake to buy a dog from a pet store… But the problem is that the dogs that go out into the wild cannot be ordinary sled dogs.”
“If you brought three of the stupid sleigh dogs out into the wild, you wouldn’t come back…”
Other fans also said, “I think it’s better to get a big, fierce dog, but all the dogs in Amazing Fate Pet Store seem to be suitable for cities only.”
“That’s right, Snowy, you might be making a wasted trip.”
Seeing what they said, Snowy remembered that the dogs in the Amazing Fate Pet Store were either medium dogs or small dogs, and were dogs suitable for a normal city dweller… Perhaps some of the middle or small sized dogs could still be brought into the wild?
Some kinds of small dogs, although they were small, had excited, loud barks. They would be able to keep watch, but of course, they were not able to deal with wild beasts or gangsters.
She could not help but feel her heart tighten. Uncle Jin had specifically asked her to help him with this, and had even taken the heavy responsibility of telling her parents where she was. If she was not successful, that would be embarrassing.
“What happened?” Hei Zi saw that her facial expression was strange, and thought that she was not feeling well.
Snowy had no choice but to tell him the analysis from her netizens and said, “Uncle Jin and I totally forgot about it, so this trip might be in vain.”
Hei Zi’s reaction was very magnanimous, and he instead persuaded her. “It doesn’t matter. When I saw Jin Er’s silly dog, I was ready for this trip to be in vain. Even if it is in vain, it’d be cool to see Famous, the Best Actor of the Berlin Film Festival. That would make the trip worth it!”
Hearing him say that, Snowy felt a little better, and took the opportunity to introduce Hei Zi to some famous scenic spots along the way. She had gone to all of the famous, scenic spots in Binhai City before, so she could give him a very good description of them.
While they were talking, they arrived at Zhonghua Road. While Snowy gave directions, Hei Zi parked in front of the pet shop next to Wuling Hong Guang MPV.
Wang Qian and Li Kun just happened to be outside taking out the trash. At a glance, they saw a magnificent Mercedes-Benz and hurried back to the store and cried, “Master! Master! There’s a Mercedes-Benz at the door! Is that the car you ordered? You’re finally going to replace Wuling Hong Guang MPV?”
Zhang Zian was also excited. He thought, When did I become so rich? How could I not know?
He walked out of the shop and saw Snowy get out of the car with Snowball in her arms. He was shocked. He said in his heart that, as expected, online broadcasters were rich. He did not know whether or not Snowy had signed a contract with the live broadcasting platform. If she was really making that much money, he would have to reluctantly sign a contract for Sihwa. Even if he was misunderstood as a cross-dresser, he had no other choice…
He was a man. He could not bend his waist for five buckets of rice, but he could bend his waist for a Mercedes-Benz. But now that he was looking carefully, Snowy was sitting in the passenger seat, and someone else was sitting in the driver’s seat.
Hei Zi got out of the car. He closed the car door with a bang, and took off his sunglasses to look at the pet shop’s sign.
“Good morning, Mr. Shopkeeper! It’s been a long time since I’ve since you! I’m here again to bother you!” Snowy smiled and greeted Zhang Zian. Snowball was getting heavier and heavier. Snowy was holding her phone in one hand, and she could not hold Snowball with a single hand, so she put it down onto the floor and let it go into the shop to play by itself.
“Welcome! This is…” Zhang Zian looked at Hei Zi a few times and confirmed that he had never met him before.
“Let me introduce you to Zhang Zian. He’s the shopkeeper and the owner of Famous, the Best Actor dog… Zhang Zian, this is a friend of a friend. He wanted to buy a dog, so I brought him over. I wanted to ask for your help, Mr. Shopkeeper, in choosing a suitable dog for him.” Snowy made sure she was clear about the reason for the trip.
Hei Zi waved his hand, smiled and said, “Store Manager Zhang, right? I’ve heard your famous name! Just call me Hei Zi. Even though I’m the kind of person that normally does not take notice of entertainment news, I heard that there was a dog in Binhai City that had the honor of winning the Best Actor award at the Berlin Film Festival.”
Zhang Zian modestly replied a few words. When people first met him, he was always referred to as “Famous’ owner.” On the contrary, few people cared about his real name. Didn’t that hurt people’s consciences?
Snowy was not reassured and cut in to say, “Mr. Shopkeeper, don’t blame me for being nosy, but his requests are more unique. Please do your best to help out…”
“Oh? Tell me about it.” Zhang Zian was very confident. His pets had a certain premium, which included consulting fees. Many customers had special requirements for pets. Sometimes the customers themselves did not even know what they wanted. After his analysis of their desires and patience, the customers would realize that as long as they did not request a dog with asthma, they would return home satisfied.
Hei Zi very directly stated his interests and hobbies, as well as his requirements for his dog.
Zhang Zian was very shocked. He did not think that he was a man that loved venturing into the wilderness. His request was indeed very unique. Common, city dogs would not be able to satisfy his request.
He pondered a bit more, then said, “I understand now. What you need is a guard dog.”
