Pet King - Chapter 1372

When Zhang Zian reached home, his parents had already had lunch because they thought that he and his blind date would have had lunch outside together before heading back. Perhaps they may watch a movie and come back. In short, the later they came back, the better because this means that that had more common topics to talk about and felt positive about each other…They did not expect him to come back so early.

This may mean that the blind date did not go smoothly.

“Have you eaten? Would you like me to cook you a bowl of noodles?” His mother observed his expression, but his face was calm, and she could not make out any sense of disappointment, frustration, depression, or other forms of anger.

“No, I am not hungry. I got up early in the morning, and I want to go upstairs and lie down for a while,” he said.

The afternoon of Golden Week is the golden opportunity for the store to do business. If only the father is left to tend the store on the first floor, it will get really busy, and he cannot manage. Besides, he is indeed not hungry.

The parents looked at his back as he headed upstairs, then looked at each other with concern. They then shook their heads discreetly and sighed secretly. It seems that the blind date did not proceed smoothly, and they will have to try again.

Zhang Zian was not very sleepy, but he slept very well. When he woke up, he found that the sun was already heading westward. It seemed he had slept till it was the evening.

How did he manage to sleep for so long?

He sat up from his bed, feeling rather puzzled. He had only planned to take a nap for a while, then helped his parents with the store’s business. Although it was likely he would be rejected; he still did not expect to sleep until this time.

After going downstairs, there was already no longer any guest in the store. What puzzled him was that his parents were not in the store, but instead leaning by the door, looked northwards, whispered something to each other, and sighing from time to time.

Hearing his footsteps coming down the stairs, they turned and looked into the store.

“I accidentally slept.” He snorted and brushed his hair.

“No problem. Sleeping more is good. You are always tired from your work, and you should rest more when you go home.” His mother asked while feeling sorry for her son. “Hungry? You only had a meal in the morning and should be hungry now.”

“I’m still feeling alright, only a little hungry. It’s no problem. I can wait until dinner.” He rubbed his stomach and didn’t feel the hunger pangs. “Right, what were y’all looking at by the door?”

If it is in the morning, it may be that the neighbors in the neighborhood are getting married and so his parents join in the look at the proceedings. However, as it is now late, no such wedding proceedings will be happening.

“Oh,” His mother sighed.

The father pointed to the street in the north and replied: “It was just that there was a car accident. A little boy was mad at his mother. He walked across the sidewalk and suddenly crossed the road. He was hit by a car…Your mother and I heard a cry and ran out to look. There are already many people around him by then.”

Zhang Zian: “…Is it a very bad accident?”

“I don’t know. The situation does not look very good… Just now, the ambulance came, and the boy is already taken to the hospital.” His father’s tone had some reservations. “The driver was also unlucky. At that time, he was so stunned by the whole saga. He was driving normally. Who could have thought that the child would suddenly cross the road? The boy was also running very fast…”

“It’s really bad for the golden week holidays…Oh…” his mother sighed.

Zhang Zian also walked to the door of the store. Not far from the north road, a small car was parked in the middle of the road, causing traffic jams. The suspected driver was sitting on the road and was interviewed by the police.

He walked over there, bend over and pick up a shoe from the side of the road. There was only one of the boy’s shoes.

“Hey, Young man! Here! Here!”

Someone shouted a few times before he realized that they were calling him. He followed the cries and saw that a couple of middle-aged couples who were about the same age as their parents or were a few years old were selling barbecues by the roadside.

The auntie, who was responsible for the staff, was also holding a shoe in her hand and waving to him.

Zhang Zian looked around, confirmed that there were no cars around and ran across the road.

The shoes in his hand were handed over, and the two were an exact match.

“I went around searching but could not find it. Fortunately, you found it. This belongs to that child that was hit by the car. When the mother comes over, give it to her, or wait until the child is discharged… maybe he can wear it again,” the auntie said with a sigh.

Zhang Zian nodded. He was not feeling too hungry, but now, he smelled the smell of the skewers. His stomach changed tact, and suddenly he was hungry. He said, ” I will like a few skewers. Takeaway, please.”

He returned to the pet store with the meat skewers but unexpectedly found that his parents seemed to be preparing to close the store.

It’s just getting close to the evening, and it’s too early to close for the day.

“What’s wrong? Why are we closing so early? Is something the matter?” he asked and handed the skewer over.

“No, you can eat it yourself. We may have dinner late today, just nice, and the skewer can fill you up for a while.”His mother put her coat on. “Your father and I are going out, and the pet in the store is almost gone. There are some problems with the breeding base where we brought in some new pets, so we are going to look elsewhere.”

“Oh, then don’t close the store. Let me look after it,” he volunteered.

“No, you don’t know the specific price of each pet. How do you look after the store? Besides, there are no customers now. Go back upstairs and rest,” the father replied and drove him upstairs.

Zhang Zian still insisted. Suddenly, he thought of something and ask. “How are you going there?”

“Drive…” Father pointed to a car parked outside the store.

The car didn’t stop at the door of the pet shop but stopped at the door of another store next door. This is because the owner had borrowed the car to carry things, and it was convenient to stop at the door of his shop. In any case, the two houses were close by. He only needed to return the car keys.

At this time, Zhang Zian remembered. He heard that his house bought a Golden Cup Bread Van to facilitate the moving of goods. It cost thirty to forty thousand dollars and is not restricted to be used by his family. Occasionally, the neighbors will borrow it. Besides a few individuals with bad moral values, most people will fill it with oil when they are done, and some will even wash the car.

His parents are very generous to the neighbors and basically will get help if they ask for it.

It is also because of the frequent borrowing, so the mileage increase on the van is also faster.

Suddenly, he felt very flustered, and unconsciously put down the skewers as if he was being pulled by something. He went to the store next door and looked at the Golden Cup Bread Van.

His line of sight swept a few times across the exterior of the van before looking down.

He knelt down, staring at the right front wheel, then trembling, he reached out to touch it with his hands.

He doesn’t know why he is doing this, but he just can’t stop himself…

From what he felt on his finger, the wear and tear of the tires were serious. In addition, due to the high impact of small stones on the wheels when driving, there are a lot of bumps and pit on the tires and its rim.

The former will cause the emergency braking distance to exceed the vehicle design standard, and the latter problem is even more serious.

When the car turns, the pressure on both sides of the tire is different. If the sidewall on one side is weak or has a pit, it may cause a sudden puncture during cornering. If the turning speed is fast, the vehicle will certainly rollover. The consequences could be disastrous.
