I have a wildlife zoo

Chapter 315 Are You Touched?

Jiaojiao was quietly lying by the water's edge at this time.

Her paws tucked in, her head resting on the ground, she looked a bit bored.

She glanced at the loudly exclaiming visitors outside, then shifted her gaze back and stared blankly at the surface of the water.

She had no idea what the zookeeper was up to, as he hadn't come to play with her in a long time!

In the exhibit, there was a special area reserved for the adult tigers to play on a perch, which was normally used to walk on like parallel bars, and where they could lie down on the platform to rest.

When Jiaojiao first came to the tiger exhibit, she would play there too, but now that she had Fang Ye's instruction to take good care of Ice Cake, her own playtime had greatly diminished, mostly watching Ice Cake play.

Ice Cake was carefreely playing by her side, sticking a paw into the water to gently poke it, then quickly ran back to Jiaojiao's side, stood up on his hind legs, and with a gentle leap, jumped onto her back, pressing down with his two little paws, sliding them back and forth.

"Mama, play with me! Play with me!"

Jiaojiao changed her posture to lie on her side, craned her head around to look back, and brought her big head close to Ice Cake's small one, making eye contact with its adorable blue eyes. Slightly spirited, she turned over and stood up abruptly.

"Alright, I'll play with you."

Seeing Jiaojiao stand up at his urging, Ice Cake was utterly delighted, wagging his little tail, he turned around and ran swiftly for a couple of steps. "Chase me!"

Jiaojiao turned around and walked leisurely towards Ice Cake!

Ice Cake raised his paws to jump, aiming to swat at Jiaojiao's face with his paws, but instead, he bumped his head straight into Jiaojiao's chin, performing a porcelain-bumping style attack, toppling himself onto the ground.

Tumbling his round, white belly on the grass, he wriggled like an eel for a moment, wagging his little tail before getting up again!

Ice Cake, well-fed every day, always had a round belly; he looked like a plump, striped little pig!

Visitors crowded at the railing or pressed their faces against the glass wall, adoring Ice Cake's lively and cute antics, each one was charmed!

"Aww, the little tiger cub is truly adorable."

"When it's small, you find it cute; when it grows up, it finds you cute!"

"All baby animals are so cute, so adorable."

"You're tricking me into raising a tiger again! I want to play with tigers too."

"Awei, come out and face your doom!"

She seemed to have heard a familiar voice calling from afar, "Jiaojiao! Where is my cute little kitty?"

Huh? Is the director back?

Jiaojiao's eyes instantly brightened, and she stood up from the ground, moving briskly toward the source of the sound!

Ice Cake, too, perked up, its little tail erect, trotting behind Jiaojiao's butt!

Not long after Fang Ye called out, a big tiger's head suddenly appeared from behind a tree.

Your little sweetheart has appeared!

Seeing Fang Ye, Jiaojiao leaped lightly across the grass, bounding as if hopping like a human, tail wagging as she trotted up in front of him!

From her demeanor, it was clear that she was overjoyed at Fang Ye's arrival!

Approaching him, she slowed down, her eyes narrowing as she rubbed her body smoothly against his leg.

This familiar and intimate scent, this warm body temperature!

Fang Ye, seeing Jiaojiao's joyful welcome, felt a softness in his heart.

With a radiant smile, he placed his hand on Jiaojiao's body, feeling her fur slip through his fingers!

After rubbing against Fang Ye, Jiaojiao came over to Lan Li and sniffed around her.

Lan Li, seeing Jiaojiao by her legs, felt her legs weaken and her expression stiffen!

Mustering courage, her voice trembled softly as she greeted Jiaojiao, "Hi, Jiaojiao, hello..."

Jiaojiao sniffed Lan Li, carefully taking in her scent that was still faintly mingled with Fang Ye's.

Looking up at Lan Li again, there was a flash of recognition.

She had fed her meat before, cleaned her enclosure, and even sprayed her down with a hose!

Suddenly feeling an increased sense of familiarity, Jiaojiao also rubbed against her leg.

How about that, I still remember you. Aren't you touched?

"Huuu~"

Lan Li had the look of someone about to cry, overcome with nervousness, her heart thumping wildly as she dared not move a muscle!
