“Why isn't this one making any sound?”
Lin Tian carefully checked the two giant panda cubs.
Newly born giant panda cubs, in the first few months after birth,
rely on vocalizations to express their needs.
For example, crying when scared,
or a high-pitched, short sound to indicate their needs and anxiety.
The stronger one made a faint cry,
and received a response from the giant panda mother.
But the other one, stuck at the birth canal, seemed too weak,
unable to make any sound at all.
It just lay weakly on the panda mother's soft belly.
…
“This cub seems to have a problem.”
Lin Tian crouched down and looked.
The giant panda mother also quickly noticed that one of her cubs wasn't calling out.
She held the cub with both paws, stuck out her tongue and licked it,
encouraging the cub to make a sound.
But the cub didn't respond.
It became weaker and weaker, even though it tried to raise its head, it couldn't make many movements.
“Hey, what’s wrong with this cub?”
“It doesn’t seem as lively as the other one.”
“Is it sick?”
“Tian Ge, quickly take a look.”
The viewers also noticed the abnormality of the giant panda cub and were very worried.
And without the viewers saying anything.
Lin Tian would find a way.
If he didn’t do anything, the cub might die.
He thought for a moment and took out the remaining bottle of spirit water from his backpack.
He dipped his finger in the spirit water and then put it in the cub’s mouth.
“Plop..”
The little guy suddenly smelled a sweet scent.
Instinctively, it opened its mouth and sucked on Lin Tian’s finger.
The sweet spirit water went down its belly.
With its effect of restoring fatigue and strengthening the body, the little guy gradually gained some energy.
Its sucking motion became faster and faster, and soon it drank all the spirit water on Lin Tian’s finger.
Lin Tian wanted to pull his finger out.
But the little guy was holding on to Lin Tian’s finger and wouldn't let go.
Lin Tian could only use some force.
“Poof...”
There was a sound.
Lin Tian pulled out his finger as if he were pulling out a cork.
At this time,
the little guy, having lost the scent of food, became anxious.
It raised its head, its mouth slightly open, and suddenly made a weak “Ying Ying” sound.
This was a call for food.
The giant panda mother, hearing her child's call,
hurriedly raised her head and approached,
She used both her paws to hold the little guy up, placing it on her belly, allowing it to drink her milk.
And this time, Lin Tian didn’t stop it.
The little guy had already recovered a lot of energy after drinking the spirit water.
Being able to make a sound was a good thing.
He picked up the other cub lying on the grass and placed it on the giant panda mother's belly,
allowing it to also suckle at the milk.
Both little guys were drinking milk.
“This scene is so heartwarming.”
“I want to take those adorable giant pandas home.”
“Black and white dumplings! Ah, what cute black and white dumplings!”
…
The live stream audience was watching this heartwarming scene.
And Lin Tian was also watching, his heart slightly relieved.
Now it was truly a mother and child safe and sound.
“Wang Da Ge, let’s go.”
Seeing that both cubs were fine, Lin Tian was also ready to leave.
He still had to write a report about today's events and send it to the bureau.
They had already wasted a lot of time here.
“Bear Mom, goodbye. I'll bring you some wild bamboo next time.”
Lin Tian waved goodbye to the giant panda mother and followed Wang Jian to leave.
But at this moment.
The giant panda mother saw Lin Tian leaving.
Immediately got up.
She carried one of the cubs in her mouth and trotted towards Lin Tian.
She arrived in front of Lin Tian.
The panda stood upright, her two front paws resting on Lin Tian's waist.
She raised her round head.
She pushed the cub in her mouth towards Lin Tian's arms.
“Ying Ying!”
(Child, take care)
Huh?
Lin Tian watched the giant panda carry the cub to him.
He was stunned.
This... is she asking me to help raise her child?
The live stream audience also saw this scene and were dumbfounded.
“What’s going on here?”
“The giant panda is giving her cub to the streamer. Is she entrusting him with her child?”
“God, entrusting her child. The giant panda is still alive and well!”
“Haha, if it’s not entrusting him with her child, then she wants the streamer to help raise it, right?”
“It should be that.”
“Go on, Bear Mom really thinks of Tian Ge as a breeder?!”
…
Lin Tian was a little confused by the situation in front of him.
Seeing that Lin Tian didn't respond, the giant panda mother rubbed her round head against Lin Tian again.
At the same time, she carried the cub and placed it in Lin Tian’s arms.
Lin Tian instinctively took it,
The cub in his arms was very small and light.
He recognized that this was the cub he had fed with spirit water earlier, the one that was thinner.
The little guy was curled up in his hand,
closing its eyes,
sleeping very comfortably.
It seemed to be very close to the scent on him,
stretching out its small head and licking Lin Tian’s thumb,
then resting its head on the palm of his hand,
comfortably sleeping on its back.
“Are you asking me to take care of it for you?”
Lin Tian held the cub and asked.
“Ying Ying~”
(Yes, yes)
The giant panda mother called out in a low voice. She used her front paws to scratch Lin Tian and rubbed her round head against him.
“What’s the situation, why is Big Dumpling giving her child to Tian Ge? Any experts in the house?”
“Expert, come out! If you don’t come out, I’m going to spread rumors!”
“Coming, coming!”
“Giant pandas in the wild have a hard time taking care of two cubs at the same time.”
“While taking care of one, they will inevitably neglect the health of the other.”
“I guess the giant panda mother is unable to raise both cubs on her own.”
“So she entrusted one of her cubs to Tian Ge.”
“After all, Tian Ge helped the giant panda to give birth to the cub safely. The bear mom must trust him very much.”
“Damn! So the streamer has the chance to raise a national treasure giant panda?”
“Wow, I’m so envious. I also want to raise a chubby Big Dumpling!”
“I’ve already prepared the bag. Where can I pick up a giant panda cub?”
…
When the giant panda handed the cub to Lin Tian.
The audience was envious to the point of madness.
After all,
Who wouldn’t want to raise a cute little dumpling?!
Lin Tian was no exception.
Not only was the giant panda cub so cute.
The little guy was so weak that he couldn’t bear to leave it alone.
Even though it had drunk spirit water, the little guy was still weak. Without human intervention.
Returning to nature like this, there was an 80% chance that it would die.
Therefore, after some hesitation, Lin Tian.
Quickly agreed.
“Okay, I’ll take care of the child for you. When it grows up, I’ll bring it back to you.”
“Ying Ying!!”
Seeing that Lin Tian agreed, the giant panda mother
was very happy.
She excitedly shook her four limbs and ran back to the grass.
Under Lin Tian's confused gaze.
She picked up the other cub lying on the grass.
Then she trotted back again,
scratching at Lin Tian's clothes,
standing upright,
and pushed the other cub towards Lin Tian.
“Ying Ying.”
(Child, take care)
Lin Tian: “???”
