Doctor Liu led Lin Lan to a heated cat bed and carefully brought the kitten out.

After recuperating in the animal clinic for a week, the kitten had grown back a few wisps of fur. The pink skin was still visible and the areas that were previously infected with ringworms were brownish.

"Her fur will fully grow back in around a month. Also, you need to actively keep her warm. Have you made a nest out of heated blankets already?" Doctor Liu asked her.

Lin Lan nodded: "It's been ready!" In the past week, she was not idle. Not only did she prepare the electric blankets, but she had also bought the rest of the stuff that Doctor Liu recommended that she use to take care of the kitten.

"That's good." He placed the kitten into the carrier and took out a bag from a cabinet. This bag had been packed earlier and was filled with various medications for the kitten.

"This bag has powdered milk in it and the brand is used by zoos to feed panda cubs and tiger cubs. For three months, she can only drink this because her digestive system is still very weak. You need to pay special attention."

Ding! Your Alipay account has transferred XXXX yuan!

(T/N: '支付宝' = 'Alipay account'. Online payments are widely used in China, and Alipay is one of the largest online payment apps.)

The transaction went through all at once, and the money was gone now. On the outside, Lin Lan seemed not to care. On the inside, however, she was crying.

Little kitten, you must survive. In addition, you must live a long life!

Lin Lan lifted the cat carrier and was about to dispiritedly head home when she overheard Doctor Liu scolding a dog owner... Pei, owner of the border collie: "The injury is not serious and if you apply the medicine as instructed, the wound will not become inflamed and will heal rapidly. Right now, it's not easy for her to move, is it convenient for you to carry it home?"

(T/N: Most of you are probably familiar with 'Pei', which could be roughly translated to 'Bah!' or 'Pooh!' In this context, it could be interpreted as 'Oops'.  She interrupted her own thoughts because she was cursing the client/Cheng Fengyang by calling him a 'dog' = stupid, owner.)

"It's no problem." Cheng Fengyang replied, "I drove her here!"

Doctor Liu prescribed some medication and requested that he buy vitamins.

Thus, after exiting the clinic, Lin Lan was able to see the dog's owner princess-carrying his dog out.

The border collie was treated very well and appeared to be a little plump. The young workaholic had to exert effort to carry her and his awkward posture was hilarious.

Lin Lan was also carrying a pet with her two hands and there was laughter in her eyes until the man stopped at the side of the road, at a cobalt blue Mercedes-Benz car.

This person...

Lin Lan couldn't help but stare.

When she studied the scene in front of her, her expression became complicated.

The young man had set down his dog into the back row of the car and sat in the driver's position. It wasn't long before the blue car turned into the street, and at the crossroads, turned again into the entrance of the residential area.

The car shortly disappeared and Lin Lan returned home with the kitten, shaking her head.

The kitten that was still recovering was brought home and criticized by its grandfather and grandmother. The great-grandmother also curled her lip and showed disdain towards its appearance.
