Chapter 199 I don’t regret it
Seeing Hou Shan hesitate, the viewers who had been watching the live stream immediately became indignant.

Don't back down! You promised to get to the bottom of this!

【Wait, what does this mean? A last-minute change of heart? How could the streamer be so unreliable?】

[The evidence is all here, bro, why are you chickening out? Go for it! Investigate! Verify!]

Whether it's true or false isn't up to them to decide; there are so many of us watching.

[Exactly! What's there to be cowardly about? Go for it! What can an old man like him do to stop you?]

The chat was flooded with comments, and even the streamer's assistant noticed something was wrong.

He looked at the barrage of comments on his phone screen, urging him on, and frowned as he looked at the person who was standing there, stunned.

"Brother Hou, we..."

Hou Shan glared at him with a sullen face, her expression hard to describe, before turning her gaze back to the kindergarten director standing in front of her.

The old kindergarten director's hair was gray, and behind his glasses, which gleamed with a cold light, his light-colored eyes were slightly narrowed.

His gaze was steady and resolute.

In a corner where no one was watching, Chen Jingtai clenched his fist so tightly that it turned slightly white.

He knew better than anyone whether the tiger in front of him was real or fake.

Of course, more importantly, he wanted to give the young people in front of him a chance to make a new choice.

Hou Shan looked at the old man's calm gaze, opened his mouth, and was about to say something?
Then he heard his assistant suddenly call out his name.

"Brother Hou, the viewers in the live stream are all urging you to hurry up."

As they spoke, he immediately handed the phone he was using to take pictures to Hou Shan.

The messages posted by netizens were scrolling up the screen at lightning speed.

[What kind of anti-fraud livestreamer is this? Isn't this a joint publicity stunt with the zoo?]

[They haven't even done anything yet, and they're already chickening out. What's the point of even trying? They should just go home.]

Netizens' words seemed to be coated with poison, each one more scathing than the last.

Hou Shan, who had finally been swayed by Chen Jingtai's attitude, felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head.

The thought of giving up that I had initially expressed vanished completely in an instant.

Do not!
He absolutely cannot give up like this.

Especially now, hundreds of thousands of viewers in the live stream are waiting for his next move.

If he gives up now, the viewers in the live stream alone will curse him to death.

Not to mention, how could he bear to give up such a close opportunity for traffic and viral success?

Hou Shan's gaze gradually hardened.

He handed the phone back to his assistant before looking up and meeting the old man's regretful eyes.

The decision to export was made with great determination.

"I demand that your zoo verify in person whether this white tiger is real or fake!"

Upon hearing this, the viewers in the live stream finally breathed a sigh of relief.

A real man acts like this; he doesn't back down.

[I'm going to fight them to the end! I even bought you the most expensive gift!]

[Support! Support! Zhoushan Zoo, if you're so capable, don't hide! Didn't you say it was just a projection? Come on, say yes!]

The netizens in the live stream, always eager for drama, kept adding fuel to the fire.

On the contrary, Lin Xiao's fans couldn't help but feel nervous when they saw the gray-haired old kindergarten director on camera.

Do we really need to get checked?

Everyone had their own guesses about the riot at the zoo.

Especially after seeing in the video that the group of animals was led by Wenwen and Yinzi, who had the most contact with Lin Xiao.

Furthermore, the old headmaster's desperate attempts to obstruct them made them think twice.

But if those wild beasts really did rush into the back mountain, then now...

They dared not think too much and could only silently wait for the old director's decision.

Chen Jingtai looked helpless, as if all his strength had been drained, and let out a long sigh.

Finally, he closed his eyes and nodded.

"it is good!"

His dry, hoarse voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat before Chen Jingtai looked up at the person in front of him again. "Since you want this result, I will give it to you."

"However, since you've made your choice, you have to take responsibility for it. I hope you won't regret it." He didn't care.

Since the authorities don't want the public to know the inside story, even if the news gets out, they naturally have hundreds of ways to suppress it.

At worst, he'll just be punished with dismissal.

But this young man in front of me...

Ugh!
At this moment, Hou Shan was so excited that he felt like he was floating on air as he watched the viewers in the live broadcast room using all sorts of methods to boast about him.

They couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to Chen Jingtai's words.

Seeing him dawdling like that, Hou Shan waved his hand impatiently.

"Why all this nonsense? If I'm going to take responsibility, I will. It was my own choice, and I won't regret it."

"On the contrary, it's your Zhoushan Zoo..."

"Let me tell you, if it's proven today that this animal is fake, you can expect my lawsuit!"

Chen Jingtai pursed his lips and shook his head helplessly, not caring at all.

He raised his hand and beckoned his assistant, who was standing next to him, to come over.

"Take him inside."

The assistant suddenly took a step forward and subconsciously called out to him.

"Teacher Chen!"

Chen Jingtai raised his right hand to interrupt his assistant's attempts to dissuade him, and with a slight wave of his arm, he directly signaled to his assistant to lead the people inside.

The assistant hesitated to speak.

When Hou Shan saw that his assistant was still standing there without making a move, he couldn't help but take a few steps forward and pat him on the shoulder.

"Young man, things have come to this point, what's the point of trying to stop them now?"

"Instead of trying to cover up mistakes, it's better to admit them openly."

"At least we can still save some face."

The assistant gave a disdainful shrug, shaking off the hand that was resting on his shoulder.

He pushed up his glasses and looked at Hou Shan with an extremely professional smile.

"Then you don't need to trouble yourself!"

After saying that, he quickly turned around and walked towards the zookeeper standing at the door.

However... while he could criticize Hou Shan, he was truly at a loss when it came to the biggest problem.

Just now, they helped the zoo director bring all the animals in through the back door and disguised them all as animals from their zoo; they did their best.

But if we take the animals out for testing now... how could the colors those little ones have temporarily dyed possibly fool everyone?

Looking at the oblivious tiger in the zoo, the assistant felt as if his steps were unsteady.

If the zoo's faking incident were broadcast live...

The assistant was already getting a headache just thinking about it.

He shook his head, his voice extremely solemn.

"Alright, go and bring that white tiger out."

The zookeeper glanced at the expressions on the faces of the three people in front of him, then sighed helplessly and took the keys to the adjacent area.

He came here with the tiger who was on temporary assignment.

The main purpose is to prevent tigers from entering unfamiliar places and experiencing stress reactions.

He was very happy when he came over.

I thought it would only take two or three days, and I could just treat it as a vacation.

But who would have thought that someone would actually go to the zoo to ask to verify the authenticity of the tiger?
He dangled the keys in his hand and resignedly walked into the tiger enclosure.

The people standing at the door had different thoughts.

But no one expected that a short while later, the door to the tiger enclosure would open, and the zookeeper, with a pair of bright, sparkling eyes, would peek out.

"Um... where is the white tiger's keeper from before?"

Chen Jingtai and his assistant exchanged a puzzled look, their faces full of confusion.

Aren't you the zookeeper of this fake white tiger?

Why do we need to find their zookeeper? The tiger isn't even here. Are you expecting the zookeeper to go in and act as your mascot?

Thank you so much for the recommendation votes, my lovely readers! Love you all~~~
