Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Between Gourmet Food and a Beautiful Bear, It Chose

Chen Ying packed up his equipment and asked Xiao Song to come over to stay with the young female leopard—half an hour later, they needed to send her back to the ICU ward.

“Tomorrow Uncle Zhao has a day off, I just told him about our situation, and it’ll be a bother but we need him to help make a platform to put right here. It will allow the young female leopard to have contact with her brother through the window glass.”

After sending a photo of the semi-permanent platform he designed to Xiao Song from his phone, Chen Ying prepared to set off for Xiaozhai Village with Little Sen in tow.

The two would travel at night, taking shortcuts to the village. With Jinya and Little Jin accompanying them, there shouldn’t be any big problems.

Little Sen, full of energy, packed a basket with Little Apples and bamboo shoots, as well as the corn bread he had made.

He even wanted to bring the old pumpkin, but Chen Ying put his foot down.

“That’s not necessary, our village may lack many things, but we’ve got more than enough old pumpkins and carrots. If you carry them all the way from here, they won’t be fresh anymore.”

Little Sen mustered the courage to glare at Chen Ying, let go of the pumpkin he was about to move, and the next moment, a bear paw reached out to grab the old pumpkin he had picked out and took it away to share with Jiaojiao.

“That’s for my Fufu’s, you, if you eat its pumpkin, you’ve become its bear!”

Little Sen muttered a complaint, and then Jiaojiao charged over with a trot, bumping Little Sen and sending him staggering backwards.

“What’s happened here? Little Sen, what did you say to make Jiaojiao so mad?”

Chen Ying grabbed Jiaojiao’s scruff and desperately pulled it away.

“Don’t listen to his nonsense, he’s delirious right now. Great Bai is yours, nobody’s going to steal him, there now, forgive him.”

As soon as Chen Ying said this, everyone on the scene burst into laughter, especially Old Gao, who fell right off his stool, clutching his stomach and his face flushed red from laughter.

“No way, Little Sen, you actually dared to poach Jiaojiao’s territory, watch out or she’ll bring her cubs and ram you. Do you still want to cuddle with Leo and Little Cub or not?”

Little Sen pursed his lips and dared not make a sound anymore.

New love and old love, he can’t bear to part with either.

Uncle Yi, worried about them, discussed with the head of the station and decided to accompany them to the village.

Dao Meihua and his assistant also wanted to follow, but they were politely declined.

“There will be opportunities to ask Master Zhao and the others to take you for a walk in the mountains, and you might even see other giant pandas. This time the visit is in the village, so we also need to figure out how to coax the giant pandas back into the mountains, which would be inconvenient if you came along.”

Dao Meihua glanced at the four giant pandas, and after thinking for a moment, he and the assistant followed the station head back to the Protection Station.

On the way back, the station head tactfully told them to avoid going to the emergency center as much as possible in the next few days. With panda cubs around and without Dr. Chen, strangers could easily be attacked.

Dao Meihua nodded, though his eyes kept darting around as if he was planning something.

The station head didn’t say much more, just quietly instructed the staff to be careful and not let “outsiders” into the mountains.

Elsewhere, Chen Ying and his two companions took shortcuts, arriving at the village before the center’s staff.

Seeing Chen Ying arrive, the old man hurriedly stood up.

“Little Ying, this giant panda, well, refuses to leave. You can’t chase it away. I was afraid it’d starve, so I chopped some Bamboo for it, but it barely touched it. It seems to prefer carrots and bamboo shoots.”

The village cadres dispatched people to stand guard outside the courtyard, not allowing anyone to come in and disturb Fufu.

The food arranged around Fufu was plentiful, and someone even prepared a bowl of honey for it, with a steamed bun placed beside it…

As soon as Little Sen walked in, he threw himself at Fufu.

Fufu glanced at him, half turned its body, and raised a bear paw as if guarding against him stealing the food.

“Fufu, Fufu, come here, I’ve brought you some delicious corn bread.”

Fufu stopped nibbling on the carrot, turned its big chubby head to look at Little Sen.

Upon seeing the familiar corn bread, Fufu immediately snatched it away and stuffed it into its mouth.

Little Sen touched its belly, which was soft and springy, and its fur was very smooth.

While Fufu was relaxing and eating, Little Sen checked its body.

It had been about ten days since its release, and this little creature had crossed more than a hundred kilometers to reach Xiaozhai Village, thankfully encountering no danger along the way.

At that moment, Chen Ying received a call from the rescue center, informing him that three giant pandas were nearing Old Bear Gully and Huaqiu Valley, and he should prepare accordingly.

The mating season for giant pandas generally starts in March, but even before then, many pandas will instinctively move closer to others of their kind.

After all, it is well-known that the breeding urge in pandas lasts for only three to five days; miss this period, and they’re out of luck for the year.

After making a call to confirm that the three detected pandas were indeed males, Chen Ying stroked his chin and turned his gaze to Foodie Fu.

“Want to eat this steamed bun?”

Kneeling in front of Foodie Fu, Chen Ying easily took the steamed bun from its paws.

Fufu let out an exasperated bleat, its eyes turning pitifully towards Little Sen.

“If you listen to me and follow my lead, I guarantee you’ll have steamed buns to eat for the next few months, plus a daily supply of other fruits.”

“Bleat? You’re not fooling me, are you?”

“Why would I fool you? But first, you need to leave this place. Look, you come down here and make a mess of the villagers’ homes; they’re not even recognizable anymore.”

Indeed, with such a big bear sitting in the courtyard, the chickens had to be hastily confined to someone else’s coop.

After some thought, Fufu agreed to leave with Chen Ying in exchange for three steamed buns and an unlimited supply of bamboo shoots every day.

Now that it was dark, they would have to wait for the protection center’s personnel to come and inspect before they could set off.

A group of people made do, taking turns watching over Fufu in the villager’s home, waiting to set out for the mountains the next morning.

Out of the four released pandas meant for breeding, two had disobeyed the organization’s plan and acted on their own.

Besides Fufu, another giant panda had run to a human village and stubbornly refused to leave.

But that panda had probably fled down the mountain after being injured by a male panda.

It had never experienced such indignity in its life!

It adamantly refused to go back to the mountains, and, with no other choice, they had to bring it back to the center.

The center left behind a keeper to care for Foodie Fu, who, together with Little Sen, followed Chen Ying as they escorted Fufu into the mountain.

After feeding Fufu a special rice paste and fresh bamboo in the morning, around seven o’clock, the three of them led Fufu into the mountains.

“Brother Ying, are we heading towards Old Bear Gully?”

“Yes, they said yesterday there were three male pandas gathering in that direction. It’s perfect for Fufu to join their party.”

“Look, there is also fresh panda droppings here.”

Daddy Xu skillfully measured the bite marks and even collected some samples to take back.

After walking a bit further, Fufu suddenly became alert, stood upright on two legs, and hugged the nearby tree trunk.

“Everyone be careful; there might be other fierce animals around.”

No sooner had he spoken than Jinya and Little Jin came running over.

“Roar, hurry, go up front; the street rat is fighting with a giant panda again.”

After instructing Little Sen and Daddy Xu to stay put, Chen Ying followed Jinya towards the northwest.

Ten minutes later, Chen Ying arrived just in time to stop the two wildly combative bears, hearing the bear roars.

Behind each male bear, there was a female.

The young female bear, upon seeing Chen Ying, timidly trotted over and hid behind him.

The bear from the other side appeared threateningly aggressive towards Chen Ying, baring its teeth and snarling.
