This sent shivers down Su Zhou's spine. In an instant, Su Zhou felt like prey, her instincts ingrained in her genes surrendering, and she felt a sense of fear and bewilderment towards the strangely beautiful man in front of her.
No, this feeling is far more complex than one might imagine.
Su Zhou felt the touch on her lips, the cool fingertips pressing against her lips. Xie Chi's lowered eyes seemed to have a faint gleam, and she was locked in Xie Chi's gaze, unable to move.
"You care about me." Xie Chi repeated.
This time, Su Zhou murmured to herself, "Yes, I don't know why you suddenly disappeared."
Having received a satisfactory reply, Xie Chi smiled faintly. Su Zhou's eyes focused on one point. She lowered her hand and rubbed her temples: "It's already very late tonight. It's good that you're back. Remember to feed the foxes. Those three seem to listen to you quite well. It's so strange."
Su Zhou said goodnight and turned to go back to her room. After a busy day, her limbs ached, so to reward herself, she filled the bathtub with hot water, sprinkled rose petals on it, lit incense, and immersed herself in the warm water, which soothed her tired nerves.
"That was so comfortable." Su Zhou was still savoring the scene she had just witnessed in her mind. Every flower and tree, and the fairy scattering flowers, all demonstrated the reliability of the system.
It still requires a systematic aesthetic sense.
Whether it's the color scheme of the NPC costumes or the color scheme of the petals, they all complement the night scene perfectly. Just now, I kept hearing tourists exclaiming in amazement from the crowd. Such quality is absolutely unique among scenic spots with similar programs across the country.
Many tourists took photos and videos, splashing their fingers in the clear water. Su Zhou opened the zoo's backend app to admire the zoo's flowing water today.
Today's visitors:
This number is a new record high. In the past, the zoo only received 30,000 to 40,000 visitors a day, even with many holidays in the second half of the year. On the first day of New Year's Day, the number of visitors to the zoo more than doubled. And this is only the first day of New Year's Day. Tomorrow will be another small peak. Looking at that long list of amounts made her dizzy. It was not only the ticket revenue, but also the number of people watching the live broadcast was much higher than usual. In addition, every shop in the commercial street was packed, and the turnover was much higher than usual.
Looking at the group chat in the commercial street, both shop managers and stall owners are sharing their joy of the day, it seems everyone had a good day.
After a quick glance at the data, although the number of gold coins was considerable, the operating costs were also high. The ticket price had doubled, and unlimited re-entry was allowed within three days, which increased the number of visitors. The specific costs of holding the event were all borne by the zoo.
Rather than making a profit, Su Zhou wants to give back to tourists and thank them for their support over the past six months.
Starting from a dilapidated old zoo, the transformation into a modest success story has been remarkable. Each step may seem simple, but in reality, a large part of it has been due to luck.
If it weren't for the attribute points, if the attribute points weren't allocated to Ahei, and if the video of Ahei hadn't sparked controversy and buzz online, simply taking that first step wouldn't have been easy. All these chain reactions combined to form the zoo we know today.
Therefore, the zoo's achievements today are inseparable from every visitor, and snowflakes gradually formed a snow mountain.
Overall, the first event was a success. Even if it was a bit rough around the edges, taking this step is a significant leap forward, and Su Zhou will have gained some experience for similar events in the future.

The physical fatigue vanished after a good night's sleep, but I was awakened by a barrage of phone calls.
Su Zhou sat up with a start, blinking her moist eyes as she pulled herself out of her dream, a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
She had a dream in which a fox was scratching her with its claws. Later, the pure white fox turned into a tall and beautiful woman, and the furry texture of the tail wrapped around her waist was incredibly clear.
She glanced at her phone and saw over a dozen missed calls. The contacts were all labeled "Grandpa," "Grandma," "Grandpa," "Grandma," "Dad," and "Mom." It seemed several elders had been bombarding her with calls. Su Zhou had a habit of not liking to answer the phone; she usually chose Do Not Disturb mode or selectively answered calls. Even long voice messages were generally transcribed. After seeing so many missed calls, Su Zhou made a call back.
The whole family set off early this morning and is now waiting outside. They drove a dark black SUV. The driver was sent home for the holidays, and my dad is driving.
Su Zhou tilted her head and looked around, then cheerfully called out a few times: "Mom and Dad, Grandpa and Grandma, did you have breakfast this morning? If not, let's go to the restaurant now. Let me tell you, the food at our zoo restaurant is really good. It gets full marks no matter which platform you use."
"We've all eaten before we came." The elderly people quickly shook their heads, indicating that they didn't need any food.
The older generation has all suffered hardships and are not used to sleeping in late. Su Zhou is the laziest in the family. When she doesn't have classes, she can even sleep until almost midnight. It's only now that she has inherited the zoo that she can sleep a little earlier.
The crowds were huge, but thankfully they were well-organized.
Tourists entering the gate naturally chose to queue, and as she expected, there were even more tourists today than yesterday. It wasn't even eight o'clock yet, and many tourists were already eagerly waiting.
Although it was a crucial period, Su Zhou had no plans to open early. She was just a little troubled because, compared to other zoos in Beijing, her zoo had a relatively small variety of animals.
There are only about twenty species. Even a zoo in any prefecture-level city has more species than Wanling Zoo. However, this is also its only drawback. The animals in the zoo are definitely the most interactive. No other zoo in the country has such intelligent animals.
Although it was a little disappointing, almost the whole family came today. Su Zhou had arranged for the animal restaurant to reserve a private room for her in advance, and when it was time to eat, she led them directly to the private room to eat.
Su Yunhai couldn't stop thinking about the taste of the animal restaurant: "The food at your zoo is really good. The ingredients are very fresh, the chef's technique is excellent, and the chef must be a skilled master chef."
Su Zhou shook her head: "Wrong, wrong, wrong, Dad, you're completely wrong. Haven't you noticed that all the staff at our zoo are quite good-looking?"
Almost every building unlocked from the system store comes with attractive staff, who could easily become minor celebrities.
This is why Su Zhou feels that her zoo attracts all sorts of customers. Some people actually come to the zoo because the zoo staff are so good-looking, and sometimes they sit there for an entire afternoon.
"Grandpa and Grandma, the zoo is even more beautiful at night. Now I'll take you to see the animals. You've always stayed in the village and never wanted to go out, haven't you? Why don't you and Mom and Dad move here to enjoy your retirement when our residential area is developed?"
