Chapter 11: Was He One of the Pei Family?

Upon hearing this, Pei Jun’s hand, which had been stroking Yunduo, seemed to pause momentarily. For some reason, Sang Ye faintly detected a hint of disdain in his deep eyes.

Sang Ye shook her head; it must have been her imagination.

Pei Jun continued to ignore her, instead saying to Sang Ye, "Could you please prepare some more dried fish for Yunduo? I will send someone to pick them up."

With that, he transferred 100 to Sang Ye—this time, it was within a reasonable price range.

Sang Ye accepted the payment and then studied the purebred Ragdoll in his arms for a moment. Yunduo’s energy levels and appetite seemed fine, and having just overheard the cat’s inner thoughts, she said, "Yunduo doesn’t seem to have any issues. You can observe it for a bit longer, but if you’re still worried, I can perform a simple examination."

Pei Jun had already realized that Yunduo was fine; it was likely just craving the dried fish. Thus, he didn't insist on an exam and prepared to leave. However, upon hearing they were leaving, Yunduo was clearly unwilling, twisting its body and trying to scramble toward Sang Ye.

Pei Jun caught it with swift reflexes and gave it a silent, threatening look. When Yunduo tried to move again, Pei Jun simply carried it away. Even so, Yunduo poked its head out from Pei Jun’s arms and meowed at Sang Ye.

"Wuwuwu... beautiful lady, I will come back to find you!!"

Yao Yao had remained silent the entire time, but upon seeing the car Pei Jun drove—a Mercedes-McLaren co-branded model—she gripped Sang Ye’s clothes in excitement.

She knew that this car was far more expensive than Bai Yirou’s! Let’s see how Bai Yirou tries to show off now!

But wait, Sister Sang Ye called him Mr. Pei? Could it be such a coincidence that he is also a member of the Pei family? If so, why didn't he react when Bai Yirou claimed to be the fiancée of the Pei family’s third young master? Thinking of the look on Bai Yirou’s face earlier, she had to admit, this was even more satisfying! She didn't know how Bai Yirou felt, but she had certainly enjoyed the show.

Bai Yirou also noticed the car Pei Jun was driving, and her expression darkened. Judging by his financial status, he was highly likely a member of the prestigious Pei family. Although the Bai family was wealthy in Longhu City, they were still weaker compared to the Pei family. Furthermore, she had only recently arrived at the Bai household and was an impostor, unlike a genuine member of the Pei family.

What she couldn't understand was why someone from the Pei family would come to such a tiny, pathetic shop like Sang Ye’s!

Unfortunately, everything that had just happened was witnessed by Sang Ye and that little girl. Bai Yirou glared at them fiercely before turning and walking away with a sway of her hips.

Seeing Bai Yirou leave, Yao Yao couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Hahahaha, Sister Sang Ye, did you see that!! Bai Yirou’s expression just now was so satisfying!"

But a second later, she seemed to remember something. She held up the silk scarf Bai Yirou had given her and turned to Sang Ye, calling out, "Sister Sang Ye, I was so busy watching the show that I forgot to return this scarf to her."

Sang Ye smiled helplessly. "Just keep it. If she’s willing to throw money around, don't refuse it. Consider it payment for having your eyes contaminated earlier."

Yao Yao was surprised by this interpretation, her eyes widening. "But after the way she acted... even though I don't have much money, I don't want her charity. I can save up and buy my own."

Sang Ye was amused by her words and reached out to pat her head. "Yes, our Yao Yao is very impressive."

Yao Yao felt a bit embarrassed. She had come to this clinic as an intern just last year. Sister Sang Ye had taught her so much. Even though Sang Ye wasn't much older than her, she was very composed in her work, unlike Yao Yao, who was always flustered. Like just now—Bai Yirou had rattled off a bunch of things, and anyone could see her motives, but a single, light remark from Sister Sang Ye had caused Bai Yirou’s face to change. The way she had defended her afterward was just too cool!

Sang Ye pushed the bag that Bai Yirou had left on the counter toward Yao Yao. "Alright, you can take this too. The scheduled client should be arriving soon."

Yao Yao glanced at it; it was a Chanel bag. She quickly waved her hands, saying, "This is too expensive, I can't take it." She carefully put the silk scarf away. Although she didn't like Bai Yirou, as Sister Sang Ye said, she would just treat it as compensation for having her eyes "washed."

Sang Ye didn't insist. "I’m going inside. Call me when the client arrives."

Yao Yao acknowledged her. No sooner had she finished putting things away than another luxury car pulled into the spot where Bai Yirou had parked. At first, Yao Yao thought Bai Yirou had returned, but upon closer inspection, the model and color of the car were completely different. She realized it must be the scheduled client.

She stood up. A woman of about forty, dressed in comfortable, appropriate attire, walked in carrying a Husky.

Yao Yao asked with a smile, "Hello, are you Ms. Wang?"

Ms. Wang nodded. "I have an appointment for Dr. Sang to see Xiaoye."

Yao Yao: "Dr. Sang has already briefed me. Please, this way."

After showing her in, she called out, "Sister Sang Ye, Ms. Wang is here."

Sang Ye quickly finished what she was doing and walked out. "Hello, Ms. Wang. I am Sang Ye, the owner of this shop. I heard over the phone that the dog is vomiting, has a loss of appetite, and diarrhea, is that correct? Are there any other symptoms?"

Ms. Wang nodded. "That’s right. Xiaoye is quite mischievous. It suddenly became like this yesterday, and I don’t know what it ate. I haven't given it anything new; it’s just the usual food."

"Wuwuwu... I’ll never dig in the dirt for food again, I feel so sick..."

Hearing the Samoyed’s words, Sang Ye stared at it for a few seconds. The dog looked listless, its eyes drooping. From its words, she faintly guessed that it might have dug up and eaten something buried in the soil, but she would need further verification to know exactly what.

However, its gaze...

Sang Ye felt something was slightly off, but she couldn't be sure yet. She thought for a moment and said, "Let me perform an ultrasound first to see if it has ingested anything indigestible."

Ms. Wang hesitated at the mention of shaving the fur. Just then, the Samoyed gagged again. That sound was enough to make Ms. Wang stop hesitating and give her consent.

After shaving the fur and performing a thorough examination, Sang Ye found no foreign objects in its stomach, which meant this was different from Yunduo’s case. But at the same time, it increased the likelihood of her other suspicion, as she heard the Samoyed whimpering again.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have been curious about what they buried. I’ll never be curious again, never eat random things again. It’s so painful... oh no, it’s starting again..."
