Famous drove the attacker away. At this time, Zhang Zian had also already hurried down from the second floor. The dedicated staircase channel showed its effect here, and he could get downstairs immediately without going through the first floor indoors.
The girl who was holding her Pomeranian that was still shaking from the earlier encounter thought about the scene that she had just witnessed just now. It was clear that Famous had saved her and perhaps even her dog.
She tried to touch Famous’s neck and, upon seeing that it had no excessive reaction to her touch, she kept saying, “Good dog, good dog…”
“Hi! Are you okay?”
Zhang Zian looked at the traffic on the left and right, trot across the road, and greeted her in English.
When he saw the girl’s hair and skin color, his heart skipped a beat, because she was yellow-skinned and black-haired. It was no accident that she should be Asian or an Asian American.
San Francisco is an open city with multi-ethnic and multi-cultural coexistence. Residents come from all over the world and all over the globe. Asian girls are not uncommon to be seen here. Of course, this does not mean that she is Chinese or an overseas Chinese, but she can also Japanese, Korean, or Southeast Asian. Nevertheless, he felt at home seeing her here in a foreign land.
The skin color of this girl is not like that of Southeast Asians, because people there are generally darker in color than East Asians. She most likely has the ancestry of China, Japan, or South Korea in her blood.
From the appearance, she should be regarded as an ordinary person, but she is very young and vigorous, apart from her hair being slightly yellow. Nevertheless, If she had black hair, it will give her a lot of points.
“I’m fine. I’m fine.” She also responded in English, glancing at Zhang Zian’s skin and hair, “Is this your dog?”
“Yes.” He nodded.
“Thank you. It saved my butter-oh, butter is my dog.” She picked up her Pomeranian. This is an orange pomegranate that does look a bit like butter.
“You should run,” Zhang Zian advised, “when that coyote rushed towards you.”
“Coyote? Is that a coyote?” She opened her eyes wide. “I saw it for the first time in my life…you’re right, I should run, but I can’t leave my butter behind…”
“You can change course from now on. Find a busy road, or postpone your running time to avoid the early morning and evening.” Zhang Zian suggested.
“Or have a big and fearless dog like this.” She stared at Famous with an envious face.
Zhang Zian smiled helplessly. Did she think that all big dogs could scare away a coyote?
At this time, he should politely tell her to be careful and then leave. Of course, if you want to get a girl, then you should invite her to your house to have a cup of coffee to calm her nerves. After all, is he not a hero (dog) who saved the beauty?
“May I boldly ask, are you from China?” The girl suddenly said.
Zhang Zian froze. “How do you know?”
Is his oral English, trained so long by Richard, still sounded like English with a Chinese accent?
She raised her finger at his clothes.
He looked down, and it turned out that the domestic brand logo on the clothes was recognized by her.
He didn’t bring any pajamas or pants. For the sake of convenience, he directly brought domestic sportswear, which can be worn both indoors and outdoors. He didn’t need to change clothes when going out. He changed it after checking in yesterday, but he is also wearing it now.
For someone to be able to recognize the logo of a domestic brand at a glance…
“Actually, I am also Chinese,” she said in Chinese, “I go to school here and work along the way.”
Seeing a fellow citizen, both of their eyes were about to burst into tears. Although not to the extent of full-blown tears, the same mother tongue brought the distance between them closer.
“Be careful. I heard that San Francisco’s coyotes are very active recently. It’s better to postpone your running time until the sun rises completely.” He emphasized again.
She sighed, “I don’t want to get up so early, but I don’t have time. I will go back to the apartment to take a shower, and then I will go to class. After class, I will go to the aquarium to work. Otherwise, I can’t afford the expensive rent…”
“Wait a minute, are you working at the aquarium?”
Zhang Zian caught on this keyword sensitively.
She nodded, “Playing a mermaid in the aquarium to make tourists happy, or why do you think I want to run every morning?”
Speaking, she bent down and patted her thighs. “When playing as a mermaid, I had to put on a 2-meter-long, 50-pound fishtail on my leg. If I didn’t have any strength on my leg, I couldn’t swim at all, or just look like a drowning salty fish. So, I have to run and work out every day to stay physically fit. ”
This is so…Zhang Zian thoughtfully glanced at her hair.
Her hair was not born to be so yellowish but was caused by long-term soaking in salty seawater.
After he got closer, he found that her skin was also not very good, and it was slightly red. It must have been because she had been soaking in the sea for a long time.
The mermaid show is a key item for some aquariums to solicit business. When tourists are immersed in the deep and dark sea tunnel, watching strange marine life floating around, then suddenly a half-man and half-mermaid emerged through the school of fish, and even beckoning to tourists, will definitely surprise many tourists, especially curious children.
However, playing as a mermaid is not as good as it looks, or anyone can easily make money by putting on a fluttering fishtail and swimming with schools of fish. This girl exchanged her labor to support her studies at the cost of her hair and skin. In addition, she has to indulge in running and fitness every day, getting up very early, running in the streets and alleys of San Francisco. The only company that accompanied her was this Pomeranian.
“Yes, I haven’t introduced myself yet. My name is Zhou Jing.” She held out her hand.
“My name is Zhang Zian.”
He shook her hands.
“Are you traveling to San Francisco for holiday?” Zhou Jing asked.
“Sort of.” He nodded. “I just arrived yesterday.”
“It’s rare for people to travel with dogs.” She stooped and grabbed Famous’s back hair again.
She is also from China, and she is also a dog breeder. She was also saved by Famous, which made her have a good impression of him from the beginning.
“If you want to come to the aquarium, you can find me.” Zhou Jing laughed. “Although I’m just a part-time worker, and I can’t give you free tickets, but it should be OK to take you backstage.”
“That’s great. I’m also curious about the back-office operation of the aquarium.” Zhang Zian temporarily held back Jiang Feifei’s entrustment of his help and did not say it. After all, it seemed like too forceful to ask for help immediately.
“I have to go. I will be late for class later. I need to take a shower when I go back. I will leave you my phone number. You can call me before you come to the aquarium.”
She brought a pen, but neither had paper, so Zhang Zian asked her to write the phone on the back of his hand.
“I’m leaving now. Bye! Let’s go, butter!”
She was attacked by a coyote first and then talked to Zhang Zian, which made her abandon her morning run plan. She returned with butter back the way she came from and hurried to class.
