Chapter 1562

| walked toward Munchkin when | finished speaking. Fred lingered behind me, momentarily dazed. He then

followed me.

Since | had been discussing unpleasant matters with Fred before this, | had not paid attention to the changing

scenery around me. A new booth had been set up next to the zoo's exit, which one would reach after walking

through the park.

| leaned forward to get a better look and realized there were animals for adoption. There were a lot of adorable

kittens and puppies. The only difference from those for sale in pet shops was that they were less exquisite.

Plenty of the animals were familiar to me, as there were mongrels and tabbies often

seen in countryside homes. These animals did not seem to be part of an expensive litter and were all friendly to

humans.

Munchkin's and Tina's attention was immediately attracted by the bounding puppies. "Quick, Mommy, look. He's

so cute and tiny."

Munchkin and Tina crowded around a cage and gazed at a light-yellow colored puppy inside. Its fur's color

seemed to resemble a golden retriever.

The puppy's dog wagged when it saw Munchkin. It seemed to have taken a liking to Munchkin too.

Tina leaned forward too. "Yeah, he's so cute."

She was gutsier and extended a hand cautiously to try and pet the puppy's head.

"Be careful," Munchkin reminded.

| had a feeling that he was worried Tina's smell would frighten the puppy and cause it to bite her instead.

Tina did not reply and lowered her hand tentatively. When her hand went past the edge of the cage, the puppy

cforward and braced its legs against the side of the cage so it could rub its head against Tina's hand.

The children were delighted by what had just happened.

"This puppy is so cute," Fred said as he walked toward us. For a brief moment, | managed to forget the

unpleasant incident that had just occurred as | gazed at the happy little guy.

"Hello, we're from a non-profit organization that rescues stray animals. These are all the animals that we've

rescued. If the two children like the puppy, | recommend that your family adopt an animal. The companionship of

a young animal will also aid in cultivating the children's sense of responsibility.

The female volunteer next to us began making introductions enthusiastically. However, an awkward expression

appeared on my face as | listened to her speak.

Usually, it would not have been much of a problem, but it was now since it was brought up right after my

conversation with Fred.

"This is a misunderstanding. We're not from the sfamily."

Before | even managed to get a word out, Fred had explained the situation.

"Sorry!" The volunteer immediately sounded embarrassed.

"I saw the two of you walking over together just now, and your children were together too, which is why instively

thought you were all part of the sfamily. I'm so sorry."

"Miss, does he have a name?" The two children could not care less about the adults’ problems and were simply

overjoyed by the puppy's presence. "Yes. It's Lil Potato," the volunteer began laughing as she spoke.

"Lil Potato?" Tina repeated, unable to believe it.

"That's right. He's such a good boy and is never picky with his food. His favorite food is potatoes, which is why

we named him that."

Haha, I'm Pumpkin," Tina went along with the flow and introduced herself to the puppy.

"I'm Munchkin," Munchkin was quick to chin.

"He's three months old now, and he's active. His age in dog years should be about the sas yours," the

volunteer said enthusiastically.

As | gazed at the energetic puppy, | could tell that his energy levels were practically the sas Munchkin's.

"Daddy, can | adopt it?"

After playing with Lil Potato for a while, Tina abruptly turned and asked.

"Mommy, can Pumpkin and | adopt it?" Munchkin also turned around and asked.

| was at a loss. | knew that Munchkin had liked Snowy, and it was only natural that he would take a liking to such

an adorable puppy. However, we currently had no plans to adopt a pet.

There were other things at hthat had not been made ready yet. Thus, | was a little stunned when Munchkin

sprung that question on me.

However, the volunteer seemed to

be in an even stickier situation than we were. She wore an embarrassed smile as she said, " I'm so sorry, but we

don't recommend two families adopting the spet."

Seemingly worried that we would misunderstand her, she hurriedly explained, "It's because these

animals were all abandoned by their owners, before we rescued them. Sof them were even hurt during the

process. They don't trust humans as much anymore, and we've spent a lot of ttraining them at the shelter «

before we managed to help them reestablish a trusting attitude toward humans."
