Pet King

Chapter 396 farewell

Zhang Zi An decided to accept this legacy, which is equivalent to taking over Cathy’s last wish.

Adams heard his consent, his face showed a relieved smile, and he did not want to cross half of the earth to the city of ice and snow.

“Okay, Mr. Zhang, you just verbally agreed, but we still have a formal process to go. Because I didn’t know your specific address and phone number before I came, I don’t know if you will accept this special legacy. The eight cats were not brought in. They are currently in the proper placement of the pet foster care center. After Mr. Zhang signed the documents, I will arrange the air transportation immediately,” he said.

Adams took out a small camera and a tripod from the briefcase and explained: “The signing process requires a full video for notarization, is it okay?”

This American lawyer gave Zhang Zi An a very professional feeling, obviously not the first time to deal with related things. Adams’s inquiry was only polite, or just reminded Zhang Zi An that it was definitely not possible to refuse the video at this time, otherwise it would be equivalent to rejecting the legacy.

“Yes, please.” Zhang Zi An said, “Do you need my help?”

Adams looked around at the store. “It’s best to have an empty table and two chairs for us to sit opposite.”

There are computer screens, card readers, novice guides for customers, and some miscellaneous things on the checkout counter that can’t meet Adams’ requirements.

“Please come upstairs.” Zhang Zi An led him to the living room upstairs.

“Can it be here?” he asked, pointing to the sofa and the coffee table.

“Okay, it’s ok.”

Adams put down the briefcase, set up a tripod, set up the camera, and asked Zhang Zi An to sit on the sofa. He adjusted the focal length himself and tested the microphone.

“Mr. Zhang, the parrot on your shoulder…” He pointed at Richard and smiled. “Can you please leave it temporarily? This is not very serious.”

Richard did not wait for Zhang Zi An to speak, and fluttered his wings to the fan page of the ceiling fan, overlooking them condescendingly.

“Wow! So smart parrot! Can it understand me?” Adams opened his mouth in surprise, the first time he had gone into the pet store.

“Hey! This uncle will still talk, you stupid! Close your mouth, or be careful that the bird droppings fall into your mouth!” Richard had a painful egg and looked down at the feathers on his chest.

Adams quickly closed his mouth and seemed to be afraid that Richard would pull his mouth.

“It’s amazing! Mr. Zhang, how did you train this parrot?” he asked, pouting.

“This is awful… It’s hard to say a word. It’s a lot of trouble. Of course, it takes a little bit of talent.” Zhang Zi An glanced at Richard and warned it to have less limelight.

“I think so too.” Adams believed it, and reminded Zhang Zi An that he started recording.

He spread the papers on the coffee table, explained the meaning of each document to Zhang Zi An, and then instructed him where to sign. Because it involves transnational heritage, and it is necessary to transport eight cats, the eight cats will not be accidentally killed during transportation, otherwise it will affect the execution of the will and the reputation of the law firm. The formalities are more common than the ordinary heritage. Inheritance is more cumbersome.

Adams took the trouble to explain in detail, and Zhang Zi An could ask him if he didn’t understand anything.

Zhang Zi An had some concerns at the beginning. The eight cats would have trouble during the transportation process, such as entry and exit quarantine issues, and even intended to remind Adams not to take the capital international airport route.

However, he did not expect that Adams obviously did his homework before coming to China. Whether it was legal tax avoidance or circumvention of quarantine, he explained that he was the leader. He knows more than Zhang Zi An, and he is an expert in the legal loophole… On the other hand, customers really like such lawyers, because it is obvious that the interests of customers are placed in the supremacy, as long as enough money is given, other things can rest easy.

Evil capitalism…

After answering all the questions of Zhang Zi An, confirm that Zhang Zi An has no objection, Adams will point out where he should sign and confirm, and also signed a power of attorney to authorize Adams to handle the transshipment of these cats.

When everything is done, the time has passed for about half an hour.

Adams stopped the video and exchanged contact information.

“Oh, I almost forgot.” He took a thick stack of documents from the briefcase and bound them neatly. “This is for you.”

“What is this?” Zhang Zi An took it over and said that she could not understand the English above.

“Well… it should be the lineage of the eight cats. I don’t understand this. I found it when I sorted out Ryan’s relics. I think I should hand it over to you with the cats.” Adams shrugged. “Of course, If it doesn’t work, Mr. Zhang can handle it yourself.”

Zhang Zi An, these are the essential things for the regular breeding of cats – to Xiaoli, with these, you can avoid inbreeding between cats; to Dali, these can further optimize Abyssi The pedigree of the Niagara cats gave birth to a better next generation.

These documents are equivalent to Kay’s breeding diary for more than a decade, documenting her experience and lessons. As long as the chocolate-colored Abyssinian cat is recognized by the CFA, it can apply for the pedigree.

He flipped through the handwritten documents, as if to see Cathy holding a pen on countless lonely nights.

“Thank you… these are very useful,” he said. “Thank you for bringing me.”

“Nothing else, I will leave.” Adams shook hands with Zhang Zi An and looked up at Richard. “Hey, little guy, goodbye!”

Richard stood up and snored and ignored him.

Adams packed the video recorder, the tripod, and the signed documents one by one into the file box. Zhang Zi An glanced at it and noticed that the bottom of the file box was pressed against a photo with a beautiful silver hair in the corner of the photo.

“That is… Kathy’s photo?” Zhang Zi An asked.

“Ah, are you saying this? Yes, because you and Ms. Ryan have only seen one side, I am worried that you forgot her, so I took her picture.” Adams heard the words and took photos from the document. Do you want to leave it?”

“May I?”

“Of course. It’s yours.” He handed the photo to Zhang Zi An.

Cathy on the photo, sitting on the lawn of his yard, holding Wendy in his arms, surrounded by seven other Abyssinian cats, facing the camera, his smile is very bright.

“Thank you.”

Zhang Zi An can’t remember that this is the first time to thank Adams. The thoughtful lawyer almost thought of all the details and gave Zhang Zi An some comfort.

He found a useless old photo frame, wiped the dust, and placed Cathy’s photo into the photo frame. Adams packed up the file box and kept looking at him.

“Sorry, I have kept you waiting,” said Zhang Zi An.

“It doesn’t matter.” Adams smiled.

Zhang Zi An took the photo frame and gestured a “please” gesture. “I will send you out.”

They went back downstairs together, and Zhang Zi An asked Adams to wait a moment. He looked around the store and finally chose a shelf behind the recliner and placed the photo frame on the top. From here, Cathy of Heaven will be able to see her cat playing in the store at any time, and she will be very happy.

Zhang Zi An sent Adams out of the store and watched his taxi disappear into the corner of the street before returning to the store.

He re-sit on the chair next to the recycling counter, and his eyes swept away, but he was surprised to notice that Lu Yiyun was painting with full concentration, as if he had forgotten everything around him, only the drawing board and the screen.

On the computer screen, Zhang Zi An’s back in the snow gradually became clear, but unfortunately it was not handsome.
