Mother Fang had originally planned to give Fang Ye a surprise attack, but instead, Fang Ye turned the table with a surprise that was doubly surprising, a super surprise plus.
The mood was very complicated!
Having not seen Fang Ye for such a long ti, of course she was happy, but when she learned about the dangerous things he was usually doing, she was not only angry but also felt so guilt! It was all because they hadn't given him enough money!
Father Fang was nearby and had also heard what the tourists were saying. He now asked seriously, "So you're pretty impressive now, even known as the Archdruid among folks. Why do you need to do such dangerous things, seeking thrills? You want to make us, the grey-haired, send off the black-haired, is that it?"
Fang Ye was silent, not knowing what to say for the mont!
Mother Fang sighed, "I already know! You're risking danger to get close to lions and tigers, all to bring popularity to the zoo, right?"
What? Fang Ye looked at Mother Fang with a surprised gaze.
Mother Fang angrily continued, "If you were short on money, you could have just told us! Wouldn't we give it to you?"
Father Fang had not thought of this aspect, but upon hearing Mother Fang's words, he suddenly understood!
Seeing Fang Ye's shocked expression as if his secret had been discovered, he couldn't believe his son had gone to such lengths to manage the zoo well!
Although he was a bit angry at first, considering how Fang Ye had openly defied his advice to run the zoo, leaving in anger after a big fight, he must have been holding a strong determination to prove himself.
Stubbornly refusing to ask for financial support from ho, he must have co up with such unorthodox strategies!
The child was stubborn, but surely part of this was related to him having been too harsh with his words.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a bit guilty.
At this mont, the waiter ca over with the nu, asking respectfully, "Park Director, what would you like to drink?"
Fang Ye said, "Ahem, I'll just have juice, a glass of orange juice."
"We'll have two glasses of plain water."
After the waiter brought the drinks and water, Fang Ye saw his parents had cald down a bit and quickly said with a laugh, "Don't be so angry, both of you. It's been several months since we've seen each other, and it's also a ti for celebration, let's be happy. Look, isn't everything fine? I'm perfectly healthy."
He rolled up his sleeves and struck a pose to show off his muscles, "I've been active every day at the zoo, moving feed, wood, and animals. My body is much better now than it was in college!"
Mother Fang glared and said, "Healthy? I was nearly scared into having a heart attack by you!"
Father Fang's tone softened a bit, and he sighed, "I'm not angry at you or trying to scold you, I just feel for you…"
Mother Fang couldn't resist pulling Fang Ye's arm over, inspecting and pressing it as if comparing radishes in the market, "I really wanted to say you've lost weight and to eat more when I saw you, but you do seem to have beco much more robust, haven't you? What do you think, Old Fang?"
Father Fang replied with restraint, "There is so improvent. No matter what you do, good health is the most important. The body is the capital of revolution. I was too reckless in my youth and damaged my health; paying attention to it now is already too late."
Fang Ye nodded repeatedly in agreent, then smilingly pointed outside the window and said, "Hey hey, how about the view from here? Having water while appreciating the lions, doesn't it brighten up the mood quite a bit?"
To be fair, the view outside was truly beautiful!
The light blue sky, clear and translucent as a gentle river, a few thin white clouds, like small boats made of cotton, slowly drifting forward with the wind. The brilliant golden sunshine shone down, edging the clouds with a golden fringe.
Where the sky t the earth, there sprawled a vast and boundless grassland, like a gigantic green blanket. The soft blades of grass swayed and stretched with the wind, and in the distance, the majestic Pride Rock extended towards the sky on an angle.
About 5 ters away, under a tree with sparse branches and leaves, lay Qiqi, a massive lion with a thick mane, in a relaxed and leisurely posture. His back turned to the large glass window of the restaurant, he too was basking in the Sunshine, looking dignified and powerful as he lifted his head to gaze into the distance.
The wooden edges around the window, with their rugged textures slightly undulating along the grain, encased the glass like a fra. From a distance, the view outside gave one the feeling of admiring a vivid and lifelike oil painting.
Only, the contents of this oil painting were moving!
Whether it was the clouds in the sky, the green leaves and grass, or the lion's mane, all were swaying with the wind.
Little children seated by the window, along with their excited parents, pointed outside: "Mama, look, a big kitty!"
"Isn't the lion so handso?"
"Mm!"
As tourists enjoyed their als or drinks, they couldn't help but turn their gazes towards the window!
Their eyes filled with excitent and wonder, enjoying a al while admiring the lions was a novel and unprecedented experience.
Many visitors, captivated by such a view, forgot all about their other activities.
When thinking about ordering a drink, a server suggested, "Sir, would you like to participate in our 'Share on social dia, collect likes and get a free beverage' event?"
"Oh, right!"
Then, picking up their smartphones, they snapped a photo of the view at the Lion Restaurant and shared it on social dia: "Celebrating National Day today at Linhai Zoo. Look at this restaurant's ambiance, it's so atmospheric. You can even see a lion lounging while you dine!"
Visitors were more than willing to post on social dia. They were happy to be there and naturally wanted to share their joy with friends and family.
Besides, they didn't need to ask for likes with captions like "where I'm eating today, please give a like." The beautiful scenery alone was enough to make anyone who saw it unable to resist liking the post, and quickly garner the required ten likes.
The scenery was beautifully picturesque!
Then, with a free drink in hand, admiring the view outside, their moods beca even more content!
Not far from Qiqi, there was a flat rock for sunbathing, offering him the choice to rest under the shade of the tree or lie on the stone. Two fallen, dry logs had been placed for the lion's enrichnt, to scratch his claws on, but they also served to enrich the view near the window, making it appear more natural.
A few black crows scattered nearby Qiqi weren't there to play with the lion's tail but were pecking at the leftover bones the lion had eaten.
Your journey continues with empire
To encourage the lion to appear in the indoor exhibit and near the restaurant for visitors, the area had to be made more attractive.
Therefore, before the lion exhibit opened, these key spots were scattered with so at, which had now been gnawed clean.
Over ti, the lions were accustod to roaming this area too!
Occasionally, Qiqi would emit a kingly roar like the sound of a mighty engine, startling the nearby crows to flap their wings and scatter into the air.
One particularly alert crow didn't fly away in haste but hopped back a couple of steps, observing Qiqi's movents. Seeing that he continued to lie on the ground, it hopped back to the bone and resud pecking at the scraps of at, while two others in the sky followed suit and returned.
With such natural beauty in sight, it was difficult not to feel uplifted.
