"As long as you can take good care of Ping An for the next half month, I'll let you intern at the pet hospital."
Jiang Shiyan cheerfully agreed.
Jiang Yiheng was about to remind her that the cat was afraid of strangers when he saw the little kitten obediently crawl in front of Jiang Shiyan and roll over, exposing its belly to him in a show of affection.
Jiang Shiyan gently stroked its belly. "Does it hurt? It shouldn't hurt as much as before, right? You can't feel it now. My name is Yanyan, and I'll take care of you from now on, okay?"
"I don't have any other cats that look as good, and I've lost two tufts of fur."
Jiang Shiyan lightly petted the little one and then picked up Ping An. When she looked up, she found Jiang Yiheng staring at her in a daze.

Before they knew it, it was the day of the adoption event. Many pet lovers arrived early at the venue. Although it was Jiang Shiyan's first time dealing with these pets up for adoption, she handled everything with ease.
"Little Yanyan, I want some water." Jiang Shiyan immediately found a bottle of water for the dogs that had spilled it.
"Meow, Little Yanyan, can I come out to play?"
Jiang Shiyan patted its head. "No, it's too dangerous with so many people around."
At the same time, she actively introduced the adoption situation.
[The on-site unmanned system issued a task; mechanical activation requires signing to participate in a rescue operation for abused animals. The victims will escape to a safe location upon task completion, and random rewards will be distributed.]
Jiang Shiyan quickly asked her colleague to assist with reception and made her way around until she finally spotted a trembling little dog named A-Xue in the corner.
At that moment, a Chubby Little Boy squatting in front of the cage noticed that no one was paying attention to him. He pulled out a folding knife and lunged toward A-Xue in the cage.
Jiang Shiyan rushed over and pushed the boy to the ground. "What are you doing?"
The boy was suddenly knocked down and cried out loudly.
The piercing cry attracted the Fat Woman who was on the phone nearby. Upon seeing her son hurt, she immediately became furious. "You adopted a pet doctor and yet you're hitting people! I'm calling the police!"
"Go ahead, call the police. Your son actually stabbed an animal with a knife, and I haven't even come to you for trouble yet, but you're already trying to play the victim."
"You’re talking nonsense. My son would never do that."
"Open your eyes and see clearly; this knife was pulled out of your son's pocket."
Doctor Chen Feng crouched down to examine A-Xue and found indeed that there were stab wounds on her back, and not just one.
The evidence was irrefutable, yet the Fat Woman stubbornly shouted, "Who says my son did this? Do you have any proof? You let a bunch of beasts roam here, and if they hurt my son, you’ll have to pay!"
Her words instantly ignited public outrage. Everyone attending the event were pet lovers, and seeing a child harm small animals made many step forward to confront him.
Jiang Yiheng had originally been holding onto Jiang Shiyan, but she suddenly pushed him away and took the opportunity amidst the chaos to kick the Fat Woman several times.
By the time the police from the nearby station arrived, the scene was completely out of control. After much effort to restore order, both parties involved were taken to the police station.
The Fat Woman glared fiercely at Jiang Shiyan. "You shameless woman, I'm going to sue you! The police will stand up for me; this woman hit me and let those beasts bite my son."
"If you're going to sue me, then I'll sue you too. I’ll sue your son for intentionally harming animals and hang banners at his school to expose everything he’s done."
The Fat Woman was so furious she was gasping for breath, pointing a finger at Jiang Shiyan. Jiang Shiyan shot back a glare filled with defiance.
Jiang Yiheng, who had come with them, intervened after stopping his sister from speaking further and explained everything clearly.
"That's nonsense; that wasn't my son."
Jiang Yiheng simply handed over a USB drive. "This is the surveillance footage from the scene. It shows that child stabbing the puppy, and all the animals were selected for their non-aggressive nature."
At that moment, a female police officer spoke up as well. "We've checked; there are no signs of bites from dogs or cats on this child."
Hearing this, the Fat Woman became frantic. "Impossible! My son was crying so badly; he must have been bitten by those beasts!"
The police officer crouched down in front of the little boy gently. "Little friend, can you tell Uncle Police if a dog bit you?"
The children were all scared as the police officer stammered, "No."
"Did you stab the puppy with a knife?"
After the little boy spoke, he cried even louder, "I won't do it again."
The Fat Woman's face shifted from pale to red. The police officer looked sternly at her, saying, "To put it seriously, you are the ones who interfered with their activities. If the other party really wants to pursue this, a case can be filed against you."
Hearing this, the Fat Woman became somewhat frightened. "Fine, I won't pursue the matter of him pushing my son. You can just pay a few hundred dollars."
Jiang Shiyan was amused by their shamelessness. "You still want compensation? Well, I need to calculate how much you owe me for emotional distress."
In the end, the Fat Woman gritted her teeth and agreed to pay 5,000 yuan.
After leaving the police station, Jiang Shiyan leisurely looked at the Fat Woman and said, "Next time, be more careful. Don't act like someone who has no upbringing. This time it was only 5,000 yuan; next time it might be 50,000."
The Fat Woman shot a fierce glare at Jiang Shiyan and hurried away with her wailing son.
【Ding! Random Task completed. Congratulations, host! The random rewards are as follows: 50 bags of Cat Food and 50 bags of Dog Food. Please fill in your mailing address gently! The random prizes will be mailed to the designated location within 3 to 5 business days.】
Jiang Shiyan immediately chose the address of the Stray Animal Protection Base.
