After understanding the language of animals, I quit the entertainment circle and started working for

Chapter 171 What Secret Weapon Do You Have?

really!

Lin Xiao slowly opened her eyes, and when she turned around, she met the man not far away.

The man was wearing military green camouflage and had gold-rimmed glasses on his face. He was clearly different from the other burly men.

Lin Xiao twisted her body and looked the man opposite her up and down, then naturally turned over and sat up.

She subconsciously twisted her wrists, which were bound together, but no matter how she adjusted them, they were uncomfortable. There was nothing she could do but give up.

"Are you in charge of this operation?"

Lin Xiao casually rested her arm on her knee and looked up at the person opposite her with complete naturalness, as if they were just strangers who had met by chance and exchanged a few words.

Xu Yan raised an eyebrow, his face full of amusement as he looked at the person opposite him.

Even though they've been tied up here, they can still move so freely.

He really doesn't seem like an ordinary person.

"Correct!"

Xu Yan stood to the side, looking down at Lin Xiao lying on the ground, a soft chuckle escaping his throat. "It seems Miss Lin knows quite a bit about our organization?"

As he spoke, he raised his right hand and waved it at the person behind him.

The two people who were originally guarding the door walked over very naturally.

"Teacher Xu!"

teacher?

Upon hearing this address, Lin Xiao's lowered eyes suddenly lit up for a moment.

It seems this person holds a very high position within the organization.

But why would such an organization have teachers?

Could it be that they...

Just as Lin Xiao was deep in thought, Xu Yan, who was standing next to him, spoke calmly.

"It's tiring to talk with your head down, let's move Miss Lin to another seat!"

"Yes!"

The two people who came in responded naturally and quickly bent down to pull the person off the ground.

Lin Xiao was dragged forward several steps by one arm, the pain making her gasp, "Slow down, slow down, slow down!"

She quickly spoke up, moving her arm which was aching from being pulled, and glared at the two men beside her with obvious disgust.

"I'm not running! Can't you guys be a little gentler?"

After confirming that his arms, which he had rubbed on the ground, were not bleeding, he frowned and reluctantly handed over both hands again.

"Alright, alright, alright, I'm a girl, can't you be a little gentler?"

The two mercenaries standing in front of him had cold faces, as if they hadn't seen her unreasonable behavior at all.

They grabbed her hands and tied her to a pillar inside the wooden house.

Lin Xiao moved around, feeling that the tightness was about right, and even turned around to thank them!

Xu Yan stood to the side with his arms crossed, watching her performance with great interest.

How come he never noticed before that this person's personality was so interesting?

After tying Lin Xiao up, the two men naturally retreated to the doorway.

The door to the wooden house was wide open, and one could even see inside very clearly from the outside.

Lin Xiao glanced at the open door with a puzzled look before turning to look at the man standing there, whose presence was barely noticeable.

"Are you a teacher?"

"However, why would a perfectly good teacher give up teaching and instead follow these bad people to do bad things?"

Xu Yan still wore a faint smile on her face, completely unmoved by Lin Xiao's offensive words.

"It's just a personal choice, but I'm also curious, why did you suddenly give up your life in the entertainment industry and turn to animal protection?"

"Celebrities in the entertainment industry can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars in a matter of minutes, how can you bear to give that up?"

This person's emotions were surprisingly stable; they couldn't get excited at all.

Lin Xiao pressed her tongue against her cheek, her mind starting to think of other solutions, but her mouth still didn't stop.

She gave a forced, dismissive laugh.

"What's good or bad about it? It's just a matter of personal luck." "Unfortunately, I'm not interested in those things at all."

"Oh?" Xu Yan asked quite naturally, "Is it because you're interested in wild animals?"

"Of course! If I didn't like this industry, I wouldn't have resolutely started over." Lin Xiao replied with a smile, looking incredibly naive.

"And what about Teacher Xu? Is what you're doing now something you enjoy?"

Xu Yan's expression suddenly froze.

A moment later, that flawless smile returned to her face.

Whether I like it or not is not something I can decide, and of course it has nothing to do with Miss Lin.

Lin Xiao didn't mind at all that she had been seen through.

"I'm just concerned about Professor Xu's mental state. After all, a sheep entering a herd of beasts, even if it puts on a wolf's skin, it won't become a wild beast, Professor Xu, don't you think?"

Lin Xiao stared intently at Xu Yan's expression, trying to find any flaw in him.

Unfortunately, Xu Yan remained as gentle and refined as ever.

Even the smile on his face didn't change in the slightest.

He shook his head, completely at ease.

"Life is full of disappointments, how can everyone be like you, doing what they love?"

"But it's all for the sake of making a living."

His tone carried a hint of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing both emotion and reflection).

Lin Xiao frowned subconsciously when she saw his reaction.

Could it be that she guessed wrong?
Was Xu Yan working with this group of poachers willingly?
but……

She frowned as she looked at the man in front of her, feeling that something was off.
At this moment, Xu Yan had already returned to her previous appearance.

He sat down very naturally at the central wooden table, poured himself a glass of water, and adopted a posture of deep conversation.

"We've finished our conversation. Now, Ms. Lin, can you tell me why you've attracted the attention of the Ministry of Natural Resources? What secrets do you hold?"

"Me?" Lin Xiao was taken aback, then looked up with amusement. "Secret? What secret? I don't know anything about it?"

She smiled broadly, but secretly she was clenching her fists tightly with nervousness.

So... that's what they were planning?

It seems that the time they took down the hideout did indeed hurt this organization.

but……

She smiled and continued to play dumb, "I was just lucky!"

"Maybe God is just looking out for me! I casually took a job at a zoo just to make a living, and suddenly it became a national institution."

"When luck comes, nothing can stop it."

Xu Yan chuckled, "What about the animals? Miss Lin, although I'm not an expert on wild animals, I do know that even if animals undergo rigorous training, they could never interact with you so flexibly."

"So... what secret weapon do you have?"

"Or... has the country developed something new again?"

Lin Xiao:?
No way, how could someone come up with something so outrageous?

Is our mother's international image really that outrageous lately?

However, thinking about the abilities he had inexplicably gained, Lin Xiao silently shut his mouth.

Compared to her, she's probably more outrageous!

but……

"What? What? I just spent a lot of time with the little brats, that's why they believed me!"

Lin Xiao nodded confidently, as if it were the truth.

Xu Yan gave her a half-smile. "Really? Then please explain to me what's going on with this video?"

As he spoke, he took out a tablet from his backpack, opened a video, and handed it to Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao glanced at it and couldn't help but twitch her lips.

What the hell!

This looks like a video from her live stream!
