Qi Shi was cleaning the dust in the Qijia Pet Sanatorium. The dust flying all over the sky made him cough uncontrollably.

"Pfft, cough cough cough."

Disgusted, he stretched out his hand to wave the dust and mist in front of him, threw the feather duster to the old wolf and said something, and then ran outside to get some fresh air.

Old Wolf: "..."

I have endured pain that this species should not have.

…

“Phew—it hasn’t been cleaned for a long time. It’s all covered in dust.”

Qi Shi sat on the steps outside the store, twisted his aching waist, and couldn't help but complain.

Suddenly a crying voice came from beside me.

"Qi Shi..."

"!!!" Qi Shi's body trembled, and he jumped out several meters away in fright.

Only when he saw it clearly did he say it angrily.

"It scared me to death. Why are you walking silently?"

“Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo close, a little teary-eyed.” Jing Xueling raised her head, her eyes filled with tears.

"..."

Qi Shi raised his eyebrows, looking puzzled: "What's wrong? Are you being bullied?"

Jing Xueling stopped crying when she heard the words, and asked expectantly: "So what if I was bullied? Will you help me take revenge?"

"No." Qi Shi shook his head decisively and said, "I will give that person two big red dates as a reward. He did a great job."

"..."

"Having no conscience...it's a shame that I asked for leave specifically to comfort you." Jing Xueling muttered in a low voice.

After hearing what the other party said, Qi Shi's face froze, and his eyes could not help but reveal sadness.

Seeing Qi Shi's dejected look, Jing Xueling felt that her heart was about to break, and she quickly leaned over.

"Qi Shi, you still have me, I will always be with you."

Then a hand pushed his forehead away in disgust, leaving a small dust mark.

"Go aside."

Suddenly, Qi Shi rolled his eyes, stretched out his sleeves to wipe the dust on Jing Xueling's forehead, and said softly.

"Xue Ling, can you do me a favor? I'll buy you milk tea later."

"Say! If you want the moon in the sky, I will find a way to pick it for you." Jing Xueling was stunned by this sudden intimate gesture. Her IQ instantly dropped below 0, her face was not rosy, and she giggled without thinking.

Agreed.

Three hours later.

"Phew - I'm done cleaning." Jing Xueling wore an apron and rested on her waist. She was dressed in gray and dusty, and her fair little face was stained with dust.

The old wolf next to him held a feather duster in his mouth, his eyes filled with vicissitudes of life.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Qi Shi stood up from the rocking chair, stretched out, wiped the smooth table with his fingers, and looked at it.

"Well, not bad, the cleaning is quite clean."

"Eh hehe..." Jing Xueling giggled and then asked in confusion.

"Speaking of which, Qi Shi, your dog can actually clean. How was it trained? It's so amazing."

Old Wolf: "..."

Qi Shi also twitched the corner of his mouth and struck Jing Xueling on the head with a knife.

Snapped!

"Wow...it hurts..." Jing Xueling took a few steps back while covering her head, crying out in pain with tears in her eyes.

"What on earth have you learned in the past few years? This is an iron-spine jackal." Qi Shi retracted his hand and said, hating that iron cannot become steel.

"Huh? It turns out it's not a dog..." Jing Xueling's eyes were confused.

Qi Shi helplessly raised his forehead and sighed: "With your level of knowledge, you don't even know about pet animals, and you still want to be a professional beast master?"

When she mentioned professional beast master, Jing Xueling immediately gained momentum and said with extreme confidence while wagging her finger.

"Nonono~ Saishiro-san, you are wrong. Professional beast masters do not rely on knowledge."

Then he clenched his little fists and shouted with high spirits: "It depends on the beast master's tenacious will and the bond with the beast pet. As long as these two points are strong enough, nothing can defeat me!"

"..."

Still bound...

Do you think you are Master Zhi? A super newbie? A master of reverse attributes?

Qi Shi suddenly asked: "Does the first pet who wants a contract have any clue?"

"Cat!" Jing Xueling replied without hesitation.

Qi Shi asked expressionlessly: "Please give examples of five bronze-level cat-shaped pet beasts with special abilities."

"Hey? Hey!"

Jing Xueling, who had been so high-spirited just now, was immediately in a hurry and started counting on her fingers.

"The white shadow cat that can release confusing white mist...and...and...and..."

I just said one kind of Jingxueling, but I couldn't think of anything, and my face turned red with anxiety.

Qi Shi sighed: "The pet you most want to contract with is the White Shadow Cat, right?"

"Yes, yes!" Jing Xueling kept nodding.

Holding his aching forehead, Qi Shi said feebly: "Don't you know that white cats are ornamental pets?"

"Huh? Is...is that so?" Jing Xueling looked confused.

Qi Shi rubbed his temples, his head hurt.

"Then what should I do...I like the white shadow cat so much...help me clean up the room." Jing Xueling said aggrievedly.

"It has nothing to do with me." Qi Shi said, carrying Jing Xueling like a little chicken and walking out the door.

"That's it, I have other things to do."

After saying that, he threw the other person out the door, and the door closed with a clang.

Jing Xueling stood alone at the door in a daze. After a while, she realized what she was doing and became furious, knocking on the door.

"Hey! Qi Shi, why are you so heartless!"

Click!

The door suddenly opened.

"Wow! I love you Qi Shi, I knew you would help me." Jing Xueling's face instantly looked like she was flipping through a book, and she exclaimed happily.

Qi Shi stuffed a cup of milk tea into Jing Xueling's hand with an expressionless expression.

"I promise you milk tea."

Bang!

The door was closed again.

"..."

quiet…

“I’m going to Nima’s milk tea!”

Jing Xueling looked so angry that she wanted to throw the milk tea in her hand to the ground.

But I didn’t want to throw it away after thinking about it.

This seems to be the first time Qi Shi has given me something...

Thinking of this, Jing Xueling held the milk tea in her hands like a treasure, feeling the warmth of the milk tea cup, and her heart felt tingling.

Hey hey... Could it be that my enthusiastic offensive finally had an effect? ​​You are right to think so, otherwise why would Qi Shi specially prepare my favorite strawberry flavored milk tea for me? He must have begun to like me.

Jing Xueling was thinking a lot while drinking milk tea, with a silly smile on her face, and even thought of the name of her future child.

…

Qi Shi walked around the house and looked at the clean and tidy store with satisfaction.

"Yes, this cup of milk tea is well worth it." Qi Shi nodded with satisfaction.

"Angel."
