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

Chapter 269 Can you take me to find my mother?
After leaving the restaurant, the two returned to the car, and Lu Chengshen turned to look at the girl beside him.

"how do you feel?"

Lin Xiao unconsciously rubbed the hem of her clothes with both hands, and after a long pause, she slowly spoke.

"Fortunately."

Although she was terrified throughout the whole process, it seemed that not many people were paying attention to the two of them.

Most people are still focused on what's happening in front of them.

Seems... not bad?

Thinking about the inexplicable tension in her heart, she took a deep breath and suddenly realized it was unnecessary.

But deep down she knew it was an unconscious act...

The man beside her remained silent, but his gaze was fixed on her.

Lin Xiao felt rather uncomfortable, fidgeting with the hem of her coat with her fingertips as she turned to look out the window.

As luck would have it, behind the dense, lush greenery, another arched building appeared.

Lin Xiao's eyes lit up immediately.

This appears to be the building of an aquatic ecosystem conservation center.

When she visited the conservation center before, although she wasn't entirely clear about its exact location, she was very impressed by the iconic spherical building that was part of the research project.

Is this place so close to the Aquatic Ecology Protection and Research Center?

Suddenly inspired, Lin Xiao turned to look at Lu Chengshen in the driver's seat and asked, "Shall we go and visit the little dolphin that was brought back earlier?"

Lu Chengshen's eyes were full of helplessness.

I finally managed to bring her out today, hoping to completely isolate myself from work.

But in the end, after going around in circles, I inexplicably ended up at work.

The man in the driver's seat remained silent, so Lin Xiao couldn't help but lower her voice and ask again.

Their eyes, like black grapes, were bright and sparkling.

For a moment, it was truly impossible to say no.

In the end, Lu Chengshen could only sigh helplessly.

That's it!

Isn't it just a trip to the ecological protection center?

Just go.

Lu Chengshen responded softly, sat up straight, and started the car.

"it is good!"

Lin Xiao's smile instantly brightened.

She leaned forward and thanked her with a smile.

When the two arrived at the Houshui Water Ecological Protection Center, it was already close to nine o'clock in the evening.

Although it was well past closing time, the building was brightly lit, and staff were coming and going, just as busy as usual.

The two didn't dare disturb anyone else and simply contacted Feng Que.

They stood in the hall for a while before they saw Feng Que rushing over in a white coat.

He smiled at the two people standing in front of him, "Minister Lu, you and Sister Lin Xiao just finished eating? You finally remembered us?"

His words carried an unusually obvious hint of mockery.

Today, he and the experts returned the black-necked crane father and son to their swamp habitat. After returning, he wanted to properly thank Lin Xiao for his help.

To my surprise, I didn't see a soul when I got back.

He only found out from Chengzi that Lu Bu had kidnapped the person halfway through the journey.

Tsk!
Feng Que clicked his tongue in amazement, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the two people, giving off an extremely lewd vibe.

Lin Xiao's lips twitched. She never expected that the person who seemed so reliable before would have such an unbelievable side.

Lu Chengshen raised his eyebrows slightly, his deep voice full of warning, "Whether or not I can visit is just a matter of a word."

Lin Xiao's lips curled into a smile, and she didn't hold back either, adding insult to injury. "It's alright! If he can't, I can contact Teacher Wen. I believe Teacher Wen would be very happy to help us with this."

As he spoke, Lin Xiao immediately looked down and took out his phone, as if he was about to make a call.

Feng Que's eyes widened in surprise, and he suddenly took a step forward and snatched the phone away.

He touched his forehead, which was covered in non-existent cold sweat, and then looked at the two people in front of him with a rather helpless expression.

"Sister Xiao, if you go to Professor Wen like this, do you believe I'll be expelled from the research institute tomorrow?"

Looking at the two people in front of him who could manipulate him with just a small gesture, he sighed, feeling both amused and exasperated.

Forget it!

The first level of officialdom crushes people to death.

He can't afford to offend either of them.

Feng Que took them directly to a place where animals were kept.

This is a place in the research center specifically used to care for the rescued small animals.

In the center of the room, a huge, crystal-clear swimming pool was where the baby dolphin they had rescued was leaping and splashing on the surface.

Upon seeing someone approaching, its eyes lit up, and it quickly turned around and swam over.

"Oh, it's you! It's you! Can you take me to see my mother?"

The baby dolphin floated on the water, its beady eyes fixed expectantly on the people standing on the shore.

She recognized the person who came this time!
This person was standing right next to their mother when she gave birth to them.

Although I don't know what happened afterward, I ended up trapped in this place.

However, because of the words her mother left behind before she passed away, she firmly believed that this person would definitely help her.

The little guy looked on expectantly, his whole body rising and falling out of the water little by little.

However, the people on the shore fell silent.

In particular, Lu Chengshen, as relayed by Lin Xiao.

"I……"

Lin Xiao opened her mouth, but looking into the little boy's expectant eyes, she couldn't utter a single word.

The little one doesn't even understand what death and separation are, so even if she can communicate with the little ones... what good will it do?
"I want to go find my mother, and I think I have other relatives besides her, right?"

"I really want to go find them... I'm really unhappy being here alone."

Lin Xiao squatted down by the pool and gently touched the dolphin's head that was above the water.

The wet skin was incredibly smooth.

Lin Xiao's voice trembled slightly.

"Even if they don't recognize you, it doesn't matter to you, right?"

The little guy tilted his head, as if thinking, and fell silent.

None of the people standing on the shore spoke, as if they were also waiting for her to make her final decision.

The little guy's fins occasionally splashed across the calm water.

After a while, the little one's sweet, childlike voice rang out in the quiet room.

"But... even if she doesn't remember me, she's still my mother!"

I don't know if it's because of the sewage, but the little guy looks dull and not as lively as the other similar creatures I've seen before.

But every word he said pierced people's hearts.

The little guy was already swimming again, wagging its tail, while Lin Xiao was still stunned.

They even kept asking themselves the same questions they had asked earlier.

"So... could you take me to see my mother?"

"When I see my mother, I will definitely make her thank you properly."

Thank you for your votes, my lovely readers! Mwah!
