Chapter 360

"Huh? You want me to go?"

Lin Xiao stared wide-eyed at Chu Lian's composed demeanor behind the desk.

How could you send someone with neither a professional background nor research achievements to travel to other countries on business?

We also need to exchange experiences related to animal protection?

Isn't this just a joke?
Moreover, if you present her achievements to those professors and scholars, it would be a complete blow, right?
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao refused without hesitation.

"Given my qualifications and circumstances, I am indeed not very suitable to go."

Lin Xiao waited in Chu Lian's office all day and finally got him to relent.

However, this time the other party specifically requested her participation in the exchange.

Although she firmly rejected his suggestion, even Chu Lian couldn't be sure whether his superiors would approve it after he submitted it.

So, faced with Lin Xiao's continued attempts to harass him, he could only sigh helplessly.

"I will relay your opinion as soon as possible, but since this was specifically requested by a foreign mission, I cannot guarantee the success rate."

Although Lin Xiao was very unwilling, she could only nod reluctantly.

There's no other way, let's just leave it at that for now.

However, even so, Lin Xiao has not forgotten her original purpose.

Chu Lian had already agreed to Lin Xiao's request, but when he looked up, he saw that she was still standing in front of the desk, showing no intention of leaving.

Chu Lian finally put down his pen and pushed up his reading glasses.

He squinted at the person in front of him, hesitated for a long time, and then asked.

"Is there anything else you want to say?"

Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment, then could only smile sheepishly.

"Mr. Chu, don't you think there are a few too few animals in our zoo?"

Chu Lian lifted his eyes and glanced at her through the gaps in his glasses. Then, as if he knew nothing, he lowered his eyes seriously and nodded.

"Um, so what?"

Lin Xiao coughed lightly before speaking, somewhat embarrassed.

"I recently rescued some little guys from Africa in New Zealand. They should still be on their way back to their country."

"So... could you suggest to them that those little guys come and stay at our zoo for a while?"

Chu Lian abruptly stopped what he was doing and finally looked up to face the person in front of him.

His lips twitched, and he remained silent for a long while before finally speaking with a sigh.

"Lin Xiao, I was wondering why you were being so honest today, even using honorifics."

"So this is where you were waiting for me."

Lin Xiao smiled, with a hint of coquettishness towards an elder, and took the initiative to explain.

"Isn't this something only you can do?"

Seeing the other party's unhesitating flattery, Chu Lian couldn't help but sneer.

This girl...

Did he really not know that these people secretly called him "old man" behind his back?

So now it's actually useful, and they're using honorifics for it?!
but……

The question raised by Lin Xiao is indeed very important.

However, this solution is somewhat complicated.

especially……

Chu Lian gave her a look of utter disdain. "They invited you to an exchange, and you found a way to refuse. Now you want me to shamelessly beg them for animals? Isn't that a bit too much?"

Lin Xiao chuckled, "I had other things to do back home, didn't I?"

"Moreover, I received a message from Teacher Wen Man asking me to go to Yunnan Province again, but I really don't have the time."

After saying that, Lin Xiao turned around and walked out without hesitation. Even when he reached the door, he stopped and turned back to the old man sitting behind the desk to emphasize his point again.

"Teacher Chu, whether we can add a few more little guys to our zoo depends on your abilities."

After saying that, he slipped away without looking back. Chu Lian watched the figure disappear in a hurry, the words he hadn't had time to say stuck in his throat.

Looking at the empty door, Chu Lian took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and sat down in the seat behind his desk.

He kept comforting himself.

These are our own employees.

It was all because I spoiled him.

You can't get angry?!
On the other hand, although Lin Xiao used the trip to Yunnan Province as an excuse, it wasn't exactly a lie.

Because she did plan to make a trip to Yunnan Province after she returned.

After all, regarding the black-necked crane incident, although the internet celebrity had been arrested, the case had been dragged on because the sentence had not been determined.

But after so long, the surviving mate was noticeably more irritable than before.

However, the group of black-necked crane experts were almost completely at a loss when it came to this matter.

There was no other way but to contact Lin Xiao again after going through many twists and turns.

This matter was delayed for a while because Lin Xiao was not in the country.

Now that Lin Xiao has finally returned to China, Yunnan Province immediately tried to contact him again, hoping they could help.

Lin Xiao had already taken care of half of this matter, so he was bound to go back again.

After leaving Chu Lian's office, Lin Xiao began planning his trip to Yunnan Province.

"Are you planning to make another trip to Yunnan Province?"

The sudden sound startled Lin Xiao, who turned around and saw Lu Chengshen appear out of nowhere, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

"You know people can scare people to death? Couldn't you have said one more word before coming out?"

Lu Chengshen clicked his tongue lightly, but tacitly accepted her criticism, "Okay, I'll be more careful next time."

"However... I heard you're planning to go to Yunnan Province. That's perfect, since I'm also going smoothly. Let's go together."

Lin Xiao abruptly stopped in her tracks as she was booking the plane tickets.

She turned around in disbelief, staring wide-eyed at the composed man.

Although he didn't say anything, his thoughts were clearly written on his face.

What are you going to do?

Lu Chengshen raised the corners of his lips, revealing a faint smile on his face.

"Because the problem of ivory poaching has re-emerged in protected areas of Yunnan Province."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao's eyes sharpened instantly.

The person seemed to have PTSD, suddenly becoming extremely alert, like a cat with its fur standing on end.

"Another poaching case?!"

Lin Xiao's voice rose several octaves, clearly showing her impatience with the Rong family's previous affairs.

Lu Chengshen's smile deepened, and he immediately began to comfort him.

“It wasn’t a large-scale operation like before; it was just some ordinary people who wanted to steal ivory to sell.”

"However, the other party was cowardly and did not dare to kill indiscriminately like that group of people."

"The elephant was temporarily rescued by the conservation center and barely survived."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao immediately raised her head, her eyes shining.

"So... this elephant probably doesn't have a destination yet, right?"

Lu Chengshen saw through her thoughts at a glance, but still cooperated by nodding.

"Because the elephant is seriously injured, no zoo has expressed any intention to enjoy it."

Lin Xiao was immediately delighted upon hearing this.

They won't accept it from others, but they will!
That's great, we have another animal!

Wang Qing, who later learned about this, was like: ? ? ?

Don't you want to see what you're saying?!
