Chapter 118. Buy a dog
She’s not short of money, but paying more when she could get things cheaper would be foolish. If she really wants clothes, she could go to the town and find Shopkeeper Zou; given their collaborative relationship, getting a few discounts shouldn’t be a problem.
Besides, both Grandma and Mom are experts at making clothes. If she squandered money on buying expensive clothes, even if Mom dotes on her, she’d still end up tasting the meat-stuffed pancake.
Thinking of this, Hua Jin’er decisively shook her head and quickly left, continuing with her father who was waiting outside.
As they walked, Hua Jin’er suddenly stopped and squatting down in surprise at a stall selling puppies.
Perhaps it’s because of her loneliness, deep down Hua Jin’er really wanted a pet to keep her company.
But during school, she boarded and had no conditions to spare energy for a pet, even after graduating, all she thought about was earning money, like a robot constantly working hard, with no time for a pet.
Only when she needed solace would she buy some dog or cat food to leave in places strays frequented, feeling the goodwill of small animals gave her a slight sense of existence.
Otherwise, in times of extreme fatigue or bad mood, during breakdowns, she even had thoughts of world-weariness.
Hua Jin’er knew she might have a slight psychological issue, but she was always strong and would adjust quickly whenever something felt off, and stray animals were among her methods of adjustment.
She never expected to one day arrive in an entirely unfamiliar world, with a family that loved her, gradually healing her lonely heart, making her feel increasingly cheerful and happy.
