"I remember now! Your last name is Deng, right? Welcome!"
Everyone that entered his shop should be regarded as a customer. Whether Deng Jie had bought pets in his shop or not, her visit to the shop was very precious, especially when the business was in tough times, so Zhang Zian greeted her with greater enthusiasm than usual.
He looked at Wang Qian and Li Kun, gesturing them to greet the guest. Wang Qian moved a chair towards her, and Li Kun fetched a cleaning towel to wipe the chair, inviting Deng Jie to sit down and talk.
After declining the invitation for a few times, Deng Jie sat down, feeling a little bit awkward.
Zhang Zian initiated a small talk, "It’s quite cold outside, isn’t it?"
"Right, I’ve inhaled so many chilly winds!" answered Deng Jie. The small talk had made her relax a little bit, and she began to gaze at the grey parrot on Zhang Zian’s shoulder.
