After understanding animal language, the villainous girl is guaranteed to become a heartthrob.

Chapter 648 They're all liars

Si Heng looked around and said calmly, "Let's talk somewhere else."

The two found a noodle shop, ordered two bowls of noodles with soybean paste and two steamers of meat buns, and chatted while they ate.

Si Heng handed a pair of chopsticks to Chen Ziqi, raising an eyebrow and saying, "Why do you underestimate yourself?"

“Boss, I’m not trying to belittle myself.” Chen Ziqi said while mixing noodles, “My family background is too ordinary, and my career hasn’t taken off.”

“Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen are both teachers. They deal with books and knowledge every day. They are a scholarly family that everyone envies,” Si Heng said with a light laugh.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ziqi immediately laughed, "Boss, my mom teaches kindergarten, does that count?"

“Why not?” Si Heng raised an eyebrow and smiled. “As for your career, it’s just that the time isn’t right yet. There’s no need to be too anxious.”

Chen Ziqi took a bite of noodles, his tone tinged with melancholy, "Boss, don't you really think I'm not good enough for Xiaoxiao?"

Si Heng put down his chopsticks, swallowed the noodles in his mouth, and slowly said, "If you like her because of her family background, then you are indeed not good enough for her."

“That’s definitely not the case,” Chen Ziqi explained eagerly. “Although my family isn’t rich, we’re not short of money either. Besides, I have very low material desires and I wouldn’t like someone because of their money.”

If he really only cared about Fu Xiaoxiao's money, he wouldn't need to worry about whether he was a good match for her; he could have just pursued her relentlessly.

"If you truly like someone, why worry about whether you're good enough for them?" Si Heng said calmly. "Just confess your feelings."

Chen Ziqi frowned, a hint of doubt on his face. "Boss, are you kidding me?"

"Do I look like I'm joking with you?" Si Hengmo's eyebrows slowly furrowed.

Chen Ziqi pursed his lips and pondered for a full ten seconds before speaking: "Boss, have you ever been in a relationship?"

Si Heng: "Does it matter?"

Chen Ziqi: "If you've never been in a relationship, it means you have no experience. How can I trust the advice given by someone who's only single?"

Si Heng's tone turned serious. "What I mean is, you don't need to waste your time. Be bold and confess your feelings. If you are rejected, it means she thinks you are not good enough for her. That way you will know the answer."

Chen Ziqi: "..."

That seems... to make some sense.

At the high-speed rail station at eight o'clock in the morning, pedestrians with suitcases were hurrying along, while people carrying bags were walking briskly.

Jiang Yuan's eyes flickered, and the parents holding their children's hands in the corner looked displeased.

Fu Xiaoxiao looked around and lowered her voice, "It's been so long since I've ridden the high-speed rail, it's so lively. Hey, Captain Si, Chen Ziqi, over here~"

She saw Si Heng and Chen Ziqi and quickly raised her hand to greet them.

Jiang Yuan turned her head to look. The two men were dressed in neat black outfits, with dark backpacks slung over their shoulders. They were tall and upright, standing out from the crowd.

"Xiaoxiao, Jiang Yuan," Chen Ziqi said, walking towards the two girls first. "I brought you snacks and drinks."

Fu Xiaoxiao smiled and asked, "What snacks did you buy?"

Chen Ziqi took off his backpack and unzipped it. "Take a look, these should all be things that you girls like to eat."

"Not bad, not bad." Fu Xiaoxiao gave him a thumbs up, then looked at Si Heng beside her, "Captain Si, have you prepared any snacks?"

Si Heng shook his head and said calmly, "I'm not as considerate as Ziqi; I didn't prepare anything."

Fu Xiaoxiao nodded, "Indeed, Ziqi knows how to enjoy life."

Chen Ziqi, who was being praised, turned his head away and secretly smiled.

Once on the high-speed train, Chen Ziqi handed over the snacks to the two girls in the row in front of him for safekeeping.

In order not to disappoint Chen Ziqi's good intentions, Fu Xiaoxiao and Jiang Yuan ate most of the snacks during the three-and-a-half-hour drive.

When the high-speed train arrived at the station, the driver that Si Heng had contacted was already waiting at the exit.

The group got into the car, enjoying the scenery along the way while looking for a shop where they could grab something to eat.

It was lunchtime, and many shops on the street were doing brisk business, with people sitting inside.

"Would you like dumplings?" Si Heng asked.

Jiang Yuan glanced at Fu Xiaoxiao before saying, "Anything is fine." "Driver, pull over," Si Heng called out.

The dumpling shop wasn't very busy; there were only three or four tables of customers.

When Jiang Yuan and her group entered the store, the staff greeted them with a very formal welcome: "Welcome! Eating dumplings makes you happier~"

"Good afternoon, everyone. What would you like to eat?" The girl with a buzz cut asked with a smile.

The four people ordered four different servings of dumplings.

To avoid disrupting today's schedule, Fu Xiaoxiao, who usually eats slowly, ate very quickly today.

Half an hour later, the four paid and returned to the car.

Jiang Yuan glanced at the navigation; it was still over fifty minutes to reach Chuancheng Mengbao Zoo.

She put down her phone, turned to look at Fu Xiaoxiao, and said, "I'm going to take a nap."

"Okay, I'll call you when we get there," Fu Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

As the car bumped along the road, Jiang Yuan groggily opened her eyes, yawned, and asked, "Are we almost there?"

Si Heng sat in the passenger seat and replied casually, "Ten more minutes."

"Okay." Jiang Yuan unscrewed the bottle of mineral water and took a few sips.

Ten minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance of Chuancheng Mengbao Zoo.

Si Heng gave the driver some instructions and was the last to get off the bus.

After entering the park, the four followed the park's signs toward the panda pavilion. Along the way, they saw many small animals that seemed to be in good spirits.

"The panda enclosure is just ahead," Fu Xiaoxiao said with a hint of excitement in her voice.

As a national treasure, giant pandas have won countless fans with their chubby and round appearance, resulting in a noticeably large number of visitors to the viewing area.

Most of the tourists were taking pictures of the pandas with their phones, their faces beaming with smiles and occasionally letting out excited cheers.

"Wuhu~ Lucky Baby is so cute, it can even do somersaults!"

Why isn't Joy performing a dance today?

"Haha, is Joy indulging in the sun today?"

"Why does Ping An always seem so listless lately?"

"..."

The tourists were discussing it animatedly.

Jiang Yuan and his group walked slowly into the crowd and immediately spotted the giant panda on the wooden stump, which was noticeably thinner than usual.

"Is that Ping An?" Fu Xiaoxiao pointed in that direction.

A tourist nearby chimed in, “Yes, Ping An has been getting thinner and thinner lately, I don’t know what’s wrong with him.”

"I wonder if the zoo has had a veterinarian check up on Ping An."

"Oh, seeing how thin Ping An is, it really breaks my heart."

"..."

Jiang Yuan watched for a while and saw that Ping An remained motionless, like a statue.

A few minutes later, Ping An, probably tired of sitting, slumped down and collapsed listlessly, radiating a palpable sense of dejection.

She pondered for a few seconds and then used 50 points to redeem an "Animal Voice Prop Card" in the shop.

After the system item card took effect, Jiang Yuan stared in Ping An's direction and suddenly heard a silly voice.

[Liars, they're all liars!]

[Waaaaah, I hate this world, I hate everything!]
