The young man was holding a dog that was huffing heavily. The voice was small, and it was almost too tired to huff. His two hind legs were lethargically put on the man’s arm. There was no blood to be seen, but the situation was more critical than the dog bleeding.
“The situation’s bad. Prepare a surgery now,” Yu Zhan then told Sun Weiwei, “Can you do a favor? Later on, if any custors who had already reserved a ti co over, tell them to wait for a bit.”
Sun Weiwei nodded, “Okay.”
“Wait, I want to ask. How much will I need to pay?” The male said, and it could be told he didn’t have much money, “I’ve just started working recently, and I only have 4,500 RMB in my salary card. Just now, the front desk of another pet clinic said they will need 15,000 RMB with such a situation.”
“Here, we only need 1,500 RMB,” Yu Zhan threw down this sentence and imdiately went into the surgery room, preparing for the operation.
The nurse picked over the dog in the male’s hands and told him to wait outside.
Ye Ziliang, seeing his anxious look, couldn’t help but recall the scene that night, when Liu Man saved Moonlight.
Tao Zhiyao aid her cara at the male’s face. His eyes were a bit red, and he awkwardly covered his face with his hands, “Don’t film this part.”
After so silence, the male rubbed his eyes, trying to hide away his tears. He said in a low voice, “I know he won’t survive this. He’s a stray dog from a compound I rented an apartnt in. I usually call him Da Huang. Every single ti I call ‘Da Huang’, he would run over to , wagging his tale. I bought so dog food, and I feed him every day. I even made him a ho in the hallway with a paper box and old pieces of clothings.”
“Every morning, he would be wagging his tail as he saw go off to work. Every evening, he would be kneeling at the entrance, picking up from work. Today, when I went off to work, I didn’t see him, and I knew sothing was wrong. I looked for him everywhere, and I only found him at the entrance of the compound. He was thrown away in the green belt. At that ti, his hind legs were already like this.”
“You’ve already done everything in your ability. Stop blaming yourself,” Sun Weiwei said.
“But personally watching a creature I’ve befriended and have been seeing every single day painfully leaving this world, I really feel uncomfortable.”
The kindness of the man touched all three of the witnesses.
Tao Zhiyao’s nose felt a bit sour, too. She told Ye Ziliang,
“I’ll go film Yu Zhan’s surgery process.”
Tao Zhiyao put on the green asepsis clothing outside and put on a mask and cap before she entered the surgery room.
Yu Zhan and the nurse both noticed her entering, but they did not pause their work at all, and they didn’t take one single glance at her.
On the surgery desk, the dog’s lower half of the body had already been cut open by Yu Zhan. Tao Zhiyao couldn’t bring herself to look at the blood and flesh, blurring together. She only fild the dog’s closed eyes after he was narcotized.
Tao Zhiyao ca out after only spending five minutes in the surgery room. At this ti, Liu Man had just arrived.
As soon as she ca in, she realized everyone’s atmospheres were very heavy.
Tao Zhiyao sighed as she looked at her, “I now feel how you felt when you saved Moonlight. This mister has just bought a dog whose hind legs got crushed over by a car, and Yu Zhan is now performing surgery on the dog.”
Liu Man looked at the quiet, anxious, and unfamiliar-looking man. She told him, “You have to believe in Vet Yu. He will definitely be able to cure your dog.”
The man, looking into her eyes, slightly nodded.
After another half an hour, the surgery room’s doors finally opened. Liu Man saw the nurse push a small bed over to an opposite room. She was experienced and imdiately told the others, “The dog’s fine now!”
Sure enough, Yu Zhan walked over and told the man, “This dog has temporarily survived, but his hind legs had already been crushed into pieces. I could only amputate his hind legs.”
“That’s great,” The man, who had been holding back his tears for over an hour, finally couldn’t resist anymore and cried out loud. He was crying out of happiness, “As long as Da Huang survives. From now on, I will take him into my apartnt to care for him, and I won’t let him get bullied outside anymore.”
Yu Zhan patted his shoulders, comforting him soundlessly.
This entire scene was recorded by Tao Zhiyao, who was using her cara.
In the end, the man handed in 1,500 RMB for the surgery fee. He asked Yu Zhan if he had to pay anything else for further treatnt.
Yu Zhan told him that everything was included in the 1,500. He didn’t have to pay anything else. When the dog’s situation gets stabilized, he would be able to co over and bring him ho.
“Thank you, thank you,” The man felt as if anything he said at this mont would seem too feeble, so he could only express his appreciation.
He knew the dog’s surgery fee must be over 1,500. Even amputation surgeries for humans who had been in a car accident costs more than 1,500 RMB, and this was the luxurious vet industry! This vet mustn’t have been earning anything, and he was even compensating.
Yu Zhan asked him, “What’s your surna?”
“My surna is Hong.”
Yu Zhan noted down on his surgery record notebook: “Mr. Hong, Chinese Garden Da Huang, Amputation Surgery.”.
Yu Zhan then asked the man, “You still have to go to work today,” It was now almost ten o’clock in the morning.
The man nodded. He was working in a small private company that was very strict about attendance. They easily decreased their employees’ salary, and he was never absent before. This half a day worth of salary would definitely be gone.
“We’re here now, so you can relax and go to work,” Yu Zhan said, “Co visit him again after work. He will be awake then.”
The man nodded. He transferred 1,500 RMB to Yu Zhan, apologized again, and finally left.
As soon as he left, Yu Zhan told the nurse, who had just co out from the nursing room, “Call Manager Wu to customize a set of wheeling chairs for a disabled dog and asure the basic stature and limbs’ length for Da Huang.”
“Okay.”
Ye Ziliang asked, “How much does the wheeling chair cost?”
Yu Zhan didn’t reply. The nurse interrupted, “It’s around 4,000.”
Sun Weiwei felt surprised, “Who’s paying this money?”
“The boss, of course,” The nurse wasn’t surprised at all. She knew her boss pretty well. He was very generous with the aspect of money. At the other pet clinics in the capital, people like her, who were vet assistants, received 8,000 RMB of salary at most per month, and she could get 13,000. Sotis, if she worked overti, she could receive extra money. This was why she persisted on even when she was often so busy and tired. Other vet assistants at other pet clinics must have at least the sa work amount as she had if not even more. Besides, her boss was handso. People with good-looking working environnts get more relaxed and happy when they work.
She told Sun Weiwei and the others, “My boss is very kind, and he’s very passionate about animals. Haven’t you guys noticed? The stray dogs and cats on our street all have a fitting stature. Ever since the Moonlight incident, my boss used his own money to buy cat food and dog food. Every day, he feeds the cats and dogs around us right on ti, which makes them grow fat.”
“Besides, without a wheeling chair, even if we cure this Chinese Garden, he still won’t be able to live his life. We’ve already spent so much energy into saving him, and we won’t lose on this last 4,000 RMB.”
Everything the nurse had said got recorded by Tao Zhiyao.
At this ti, the other custors had arrived, too. Yu Zhan and the nurse continued their busy work.
