Chapter 126 Return to the West Sea Zoo

Lu Chengshen gave Lin Xiao a few more brief instructions before letting her leave the office.

Lin Xiao looked completely bewildered.

So... Lu Chengshen called out to her just to remind her to be careful?

Lin Xiao glanced back at the closed office door with a hint of helplessness, then shook her head and turned to walk outside.

forget about it!
She needs to hurry back to the hotel to pack her things!

In the afternoon, all the animals were loaded into boxes and moved onto the large truck.

It takes about five or six hours to get back to Xihai from the film studio.

Although they set off as quickly as possible in the afternoon, it was already dark when they arrived at the entrance of Xihai Zoo.

Despite this, the lights were on in the small hut next to the zoo gate, where the gatekeepers kept watch.

The yellowish light shone through the transparent glass and was projected onto the dark ground.

Amidst the deep darkness of the night, a trace of warmth remained on the table.

Lin Xiao got out of the car, looked at the brightly lit guardhouse, and couldn't help but smile, subconsciously teasing, "Director Chu is actually so generous?"

"Have you hired security guards at the gate?"

It's worth noting that since entering the zoo, Lin Xiao has mentioned more than once that the entire zoo's security system needs to be upgraded.

It's not just about the outer layer of security; they also need to take appropriate measures inside their zoo.

For example, if an animal escapes from its cage, they must ensure that the visitors are unharmed.

But every time he tried to say it, Chu Lian would bring up the zoo's ledger and complain about being poor.

This matter has barely progressed at all.

Because of the previous obstruction, Lin Xiao was genuinely surprised to see Chu Lian so generously hiring security guards.

Just as they were walking toward the gate of the Xihai Zoo, preparing to knock on the door and let the truck carrying the animals in, the small house, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened.

Lin Xiao subconsciously looked up, wanting to see just how good Chu Lian was at selecting people.
However, to his surprise, he was caught off guard by a very familiar face.

Chu Lian walked out of the old man's hut with a smile, and awkwardly stretched his shoulders!

"You are finally back!"

"As soon as I received Lin Xiao's message this afternoon, I quickly packed my things and waited here."

"But who knew you would walk so slowly? I've been waiting from dawn till dusk, and you still haven't come back!"

Just as Chu Lian was indignantly denouncing the group of people in front of him, the small house next to him was pushed open again with a bang.

Immediately afterwards, Kong Yang walked out of the room with an impatient look on his face.

"Old Chu, why did you run away again? Do you know that what you're doing is very immoral?"

“Every time you lose at cards, you just turn around and run away! Can’t you be a little more honest like me?”

"If you lose, you lose. A real man can't afford to lose!"

Kong Yang's tone was very aggressive!

He opened the door and strode out.

However, the next second, seeing a large crowd suddenly appear out of nowhere in the distance, his eyes widened in surprise.

"You, you guys..."

His voice was stiff and trembling slightly.

He turned slightly to the side and quickly raised his hand to straighten his shirt, which was covered in wrinkles from somewhere.

They look flustered and overwhelmed.

Looking at the stiffness on Kong Yang's face, Lin Xiao could even imagine that Teacher Kong must be thinking about which planet would be more suitable for him to move to tomorrow.

Her gaze involuntarily fell on Kong Yang's wrinkled shirt, which hung loosely on his body.

Lin Xiao couldn't help but click her tongue softly.

Who would have thought that Mr. Kong Yang, who is usually dressed in a suit and tie and meticulous in his appearance, would have such a free and unrestrained side?
but……

Lin Xiao's scrutinizing gaze slowly fell on Chu Lian, who looked guilty.

She curved her lips into a smile, and spoke slowly, as if it were the whisper of a devil. "Waiting from day to night?"

"Isn't it too hard?"

"So... this is how hard you work?"

With each word Lin Xiao spoke, Chu Lian's guilty conscience became more and more obvious.

Despite his guilty conscience, he couldn't help but stubbornly insist on his point.

"I came here specifically to wait for you!"

"It was just a little accident that happened in the middle... plus I might have exaggerated a bit."

"Just a little bit?" Lin Xiao looked over leisurely.

Chu Lian choked on her words, finally giving her a defiant glare before walking past them toward the truck parked not far away.

He was still grumbling.

"You people are always finding fault. Can't you live a simpler life like animals?"

Lin Xiao and Lu Chengshen exchanged a glance, a hint of helplessness in their eyes.

On the other side, Chu Lian, with his arms behind his back, walked quickly to the side of the carriage as if he were running away.

After glancing at the locks hanging on the carriage, Chu Lian turned to look at the crowd that had been gathered around watching the commotion.

Enraged, he shouted, "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and bring the little ones down!"

"If we really leave them cooped up in the truck all night, who knows what might happen the next day?"

Those who are unjustly used as venting outlets by their superiors: ...

But seeing the old man so angry that he was puffing out his beard and glaring at everyone, I couldn't help but find it funny.

But everyone knew in their hearts that if they dared to laugh out loud at this moment, the old man would hold a grudge against them for who knows how many years.

Fortunately, Zheng Guangsheng stepped forward with a smile, "Mr. Chu, please wait a moment, I'll open the door for you!"

Zheng Guangsheng was holding a key he had somehow gotten and was about to open the door.

Lin Xiao's eyes flickered slightly, and she quickly spoke up to stop him.

"Don't open it..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chu Lian had already taken the iron lock and readily opened the warehouse door.

Lin Xiao couldn't help but take a deep breath and cover her eyes, unable to bear looking at it.

Chu Lian was completely oblivious to Lin Xiao's reaction; his mind was now filled with Lin Xiao's earlier report about the Chinese Merganser.

Everyone knows this is a world-class protected animal.

From now on, their zoo will have giant pandas too!!!

If he sees his old classmate from panda breeding and management again, he'll definitely brag about it!
Pushing aside the two large iron doors on the truck bed, Chu Lian immediately returned to see the Chinese Merganser he had been longing to see.

However, the next second, he was caught off guard and met a fluffy little head.

Chu Lian paused slightly, blinking in confusion.

Before returning, Lin Xiao called him specifically to say that she would be bringing back a batch of particularly precious protected animals.

Therefore, Chu Lian didn't think much of it when he saw the extra animals.

I just think this guy looks a lot like a cat?

Chu Lian turned to look at the cage beside him, but Yingying felt something was wrong and turned to look at the little guy standing next to the iron cage again.

After hesitating for a long time, he couldn't help but reach out and pick up the little guy.

What kind of protected animal is this?
Why does it look so much like a cat?

Suddenly suspended in mid-air, the little raccoon looked at the serious-looking two-legged beast in front of it and blinked in confusion.

Then, as if testing the waters, he called out softly.

"Meow?"

Chu Lian: ?
