I have a wildlife zoo

"Can this matter be delayed?" Father Fang took another slice of steak and said pensively, "You don't want to take over the business, so we need to find someone to pass it on to. Better to have a child sooner and start raising them. If we can't count on you, we'll have to pin our hopes on a grandchild."

Mother Fang said, "You don't want us to set you up with someone, so you should at least try to find someone yourself. Hey, aren't there any pretty young girls at the zoo?"

Of course, my assistant is quite pretty.

But Fang Ye, of course, wouldn't say something so naive, as his mother would definitely get too excited, bombarding him with questions.

He said helplessly, "Ah, Mom, let's just enjoy our dinner without bringing up such stressful topics. Love is about fate. The car will find its way around the mountain, and the boat will straighten out at the bridgehead."

Mother Fang shook her head: "Well, you're impossible to persuade. Just think about it yourself."

At this moment, the waiter brought over a pot of tomato soup. Father Fang scooped up a bowl, blew on it, and brought it to Mother Fang, with a wry smile, "Let me show you a trick, see what you should do when looking for a girlfriend."

Mother Fang took a sip with squinted eyes and an expression sweet as honey, "It's quite tasty."

Fang Ye was full of question marks: ?????

What do you mean? I'm here eating my steak, and suddenly you're feeding me dog food?

Showing off your love, huh? Fine, I get it.

...

Today, after visiting the zoo, many visitors not only posted on their social media but also edited videos they took at the zoo and uploaded them to video platforms like Douyin.

For example, the scene where a lion ascended Pride Rock, roaring under the golden sunshine, was matched with an iconic soundtrack from The Lion King, looking just like a real-life version!

"#Linhai Zoo# The Lion King in the zoo!"

The uploader said, "I went to Linhai Zoo today, and I didn't expect to see such a majestic lion! It was a perfect reenactment of a classic scene from 'The Lion King'!"

"As a Linhai local, I also visited the zoo today. Pride Rock is really beautiful, Director Fang really knows us! My youth has come back!"

"I was completely stunned when I saw it, it was so beautiful. I stood there for several minutes, unable to snap out of it."

"When I went there in the afternoon, the place was packed. Near the first viewing spot, it was all heads, bustling and hustling. Oh my goodness, even from far away I felt hot, everyone wanted to squeeze to the front to take a photo with Pride Rock. Anyway, I just took a look from a distance and moved on. You could see Pride Rock from other viewing spots too.

I don't know why everyone had to crowd there."

"Because that angle is the famous scene from the cartoon! Of course, everyone gathered there."

"Listening to the lion's roar up close is truly deafening, it makes your scalp tingle. It got me so excited."

"As a big cat lover, lions are my favorite among the feline animals! Their manes are just too cool. I even chatted with an animal keeper and asked about them. There are two male lions, one named Qiqi and the other Kaka, brothers from another zoo, which explains why they get along so well.

When I was there, Qiqi was just lying on the grass, napping away and not very active, while Kaka lay beside him, head raised, like a sentinel, keeping watch for Qiqi. The two brothers are just so loving!"

"Sob sob sob, I want to visit there too, but unfortunately, I'm going hiking with my parents during the holidays! I really want to visit and admire those handsome creatures!"

"I remember watching a documentary on Animal Planet that said male lions might eat cubs, and I don't know if they eat their own young, but after that, I've always been quite afraid of lions. They seem so terrifying."

"The new male lion, after winning a fight and driving away the previous male, will kill cubs that are not his to pass on his genes. This phenomenon is actually quite common in the animal world, so we shouldn't judge animals by human morals."

"After all, who would want to spend so much effort raising a child that's not their own."

"I took my child to see the lions today, and he really liked them, said the lions looked so cool!"

"I told my child that lions are not only cool, but also very brave and willing to face challenges. When they encounter difficulties, they don't get discouraged. I hope he grows up to be as brave as a lion. Seeing how inspired my child was! Now that we're back from the zoo, we're going to watch 'The Lion King' after dinner."

"Wow, what an outstanding parent! This kid not only got to see the handsome lions at the zoo and learn about animals, but also learned about personal qualities. That trip was so worth it!"

"Haha, I think the scenery at the lion exhibit is really spectacular. It's so invigorating, and it creates an environment that resonates with kids when you give them encouragement. Any other setting just wouldn't have the same effect."

"Speaking of eating, have you dined at the Lion Restaurant?"

"No! Can't afford it!"

"The view at the Lion Restaurant really is nice, but the prices are so high. A steak for one person costs 300 yuan. After checking my Alipay and WeChat balances, I just ordered a drink, silently finished it, and slipped away."

"Today really hit the wallet hard! I ordered an axe-cut steak with a few friends. I have to say, enjoying a steak while watching the lions outside is truly a treat. And the taste of the steak itself is really delicious, worth the price. I think if you're not short on cash, it's quite nice to go there for a meal."

"If I say I think it's cheap, will you all beat me up?"

"Scram!"

Netizens commented cheerfully under the video, giving all kinds of likes.

...

After dinner, Fang Ye took his parents around the Linhai Zoo himself, acting as their guide.

Visitors who saw Fang Ye greeted him, and some children clung to him, saying they "wanted to learn animal language from Brother Fang Ye." He appeased them with "Definitely next time," as their parents awkwardly held their children.

Father Fang and Mother Fang found it quite amusing; it seemed he really had become the King of Beasts to the kids.

Seeing their son respected and loved by the visitors actually made them very happy and proud!

At the tiger exhibit, in front of the glass wall.

Fang Ye and his parents smiled and introduced, "This is our zoo's big star, Jiaojiao! Isn't she beautiful? Jiaojiao is an old timer, been here since the beginning. She was the main attraction when the zoo first opened."

He waved at Jiaojiao, who came over with an Ice Cake in her mouth, giving him a strange look. Why wasn't Fang Ye inside the exhibit today?

Soon, the massive tiger body pressed tightly against the glass, squinting and rubbing back and forth like a spoilt kitten.

Then she lay down, her paw resting on her chest, her white, soft belly exposed, looking at him with hopeful eyes, making a playful invitation gesture.

Fang Ye nodded and smiled at Jiaojiao, whispering, "Jiaojiao is very well-behaved and gentle! She's also very careful with her cubs. If I were in danger, she would definitely protect me."

Father Fang and Mother Fang were seeing a tiger up close for the first time, let alone a cuddly big one.

It was quite different from the fierce and formidable image they had in mind, and they found it hard to believe, feeling quite shaken.

The trust that showed through this posture and expression couldn't be faked.

No wonder Fang Ye dares to pet tigers and is called the Archdruid by visitors.
