“Click, click!”
The giant panda sat on the ground, munching on an apple, its adorable appearance truly deserving of the title of “Meng Wang” (Cute King).
In just a short while, several apples were devoured.
Clearly addicted to the taste, the giant panda immediately trotted over to pester Lin Fan.
It even stood up, extending its plump paw to rummage through Lin Fan's pocket.
Lin Fan couldn't help but laugh in exasperation. He turned his pocket inside out to show it.
“Don’t search, there’s nothing left. You ate them all!”
Seeing this, the giant panda reluctantly gave up its attempt to 'search' Lin Fan.
The viewers in the live stream were instantly amazed.
“Holy crap! This panda's intelligence is off the charts! It seems like it can totally understand Lin Fan? Am I hallucinating?”
“Damn! If I hadn’t witnessed the entire rescue process, I’d really think this panda was a human in disguise!”
“Gotta admit, it's definitely way too smart! It’s only missing the ability to talk!”
“Could it be that wild pandas are a whole lot smarter than those in captivity? Any experts out there to enlighten us?”
...
Lin Fan glanced at the barrage of comments in the live stream and chuckled inwardly.
Wild pandas smarter than captive ones?
Think again!
All of this was due to the effect of the Spirit Liquid!
The giant panda, having consumed the Spirit Liquid, not only healed at an astounding rate but also became increasingly intelligent.
Now, it could not only understand Lin Fan's words, but sometimes even make human-like gestures and expressions.
Its intelligence was simply extraordinary.
It could even clearly communicate to Lin Fan how it had sustained its severe injuries.
That’s right, it was the result of a fight with a leopard.
Two weeks ago, this panda had somehow pissed off an adult leopard and got beaten up.
It had almost lost its life.
It was barely recovered after Lin Fan had used the Spirit Liquid to revive it.
Whether it was because the Spirit Liquid had boosted its intelligence, seeing Lin Fan practicing his boxing in the courtyard that morning, it actually knew to ask Lin Fan for help.
The absurd part was that it wanted to drag Lin Fan along to fight the leopard again.
Lin Fan was dumbfounded.
So that's how he ended up giving the panda a lecture.
For Lin Fan, fighting was impossible. Having come from a brutal battlefield, if he were to really fight, it would be a ‘battle to the death’.
He couldn't help it, Lin Fan had post-traumatic stress disorder.
That was the main reason why he had chosen to live away from people and become a forest ranger after his discharge.
Besides, fighting a Class I protected animal?
Unless your head was kicked by a donkey, no one would think of doing such a thing!
So, Lin Fan didn't hesitate at all when faced with the panda’s request for backup, directly refusing.
“Come, let me check your wounds and see how you’re healing!”
Lin Fan began his daily routine of checking the panda’s wounds.
This was a necessary task assigned by the bureau.
Wild pandas, after all, had to return to the wild.
Once it was fully recovered, it had to be sent back to nature.
The giant panda seemed to understand, obediently lying down to make it easier for Lin Fan to check.
After a careful examination, Lin Fan found that the panda’s wounds had basically healed.
This recovery speed was truly unbelievable.
Two weeks ago, this panda had been on the verge of death.
Unexpectedly, it had almost recovered now.
Lin Fan couldn't help but marvel at the magic of the Spirit Liquid once again in his heart.
“Good! You’ll be able to be discharged…uh, return to the wild in two more days!”
Patting the panda’s furry head, Lin Fan smiled,
“But I advise you to stay away from that leopard for now. You can’t beat it yet!”
“If you really can’t swallow that pride, wait until you grow up to deal with it! As the saying goes, “Junzi bao chou, shi nian wei wan” (A gentleman's revenge is never too late!)”
“Yingying...”
Hearing Lin Fan's words, the panda lying on the ground rolled over and got up.
Its fleshy paws wrapped around Lin Fan’s thigh, refusing to let go. It also had a look of pitiful sadness.
“Yingying...” (Help, help me beat, beat it)
“Impossible!”
Lin Fan resolutely shook his head in refusal.
Don’t think you can get me to fight the leopard just by being cute, no way!
“Don’t think I'll help you fight the leopard, you’re a national treasure, but I'm not!”
“Alright, stop clinging to me, I have to go patrol the forest and find bamboo to bring back for you to eat!”
After saying that, Lin Fan simply left, leaving the giant panda rolling on the ground in a fit of temper.
The viewers in the live stream instantly exploded.
“Holy shit! This panda is too smart and adorable! It even rolls on the ground and throws a tantrum after being rejected by Lin Fan! Love it, love it!”
“Ah~！Lin Fan is so heartless, he could actually refuse such a cute panda! If it were me, I'd agree to anything it asked!”
“You idiot! Agree to fight the leopard with it? Are you crazy? Lin Fan is right to refuse! However, this panda actually wants to fight back against the leopard, this totally blew my mind!”
“Pfft! Is it really that vengeful? It’s not even fully recovered, but it already wants to ask Lin Fan for help?”
