Chapter 124 The Rat is Coming
Xiao Li spoke cautiously, "Sister Lin, would you like to go to our staff dormitory to take a shower? It's not far from here, and I have a few spare sets of clothes."
In order to facilitate the keepers to look after the animals, each park is equipped with staff dormitories.
Lin Ting looked at the clothes on his body, and then looked at his wet hair which was full of saliva and even had some threads on it.
Even though the veterinary hospital wasn't far from here, she didn't want to go back with Feng'er's drool-stained hair. "Thank you for your help."
"That's no big deal. It's still more than ten minutes' walk from here to our horse farm. You can just ride back like the wind." Xiao Li suggested.
She had indeed not ridden a horse for a long time.
Her grandfather had his own horse farm. When she was a child, she often went there to play. Later, she also went to horse farms abroad with her mother who was on business trips.
Lin Ting did not refuse Xiao Li's proposal.
Xiao Li reached out his hand and tried to help Lin Ting. "Sister Lin, please slow down. Feng'er is very naughty. Whenever tourists can't get on the horse in one go, he thinks they can't ride and deliberately scares them."
Woo
"It's so fun to tease those humans, but even those who know how to do it can't be teased."
Feng'er's tone was filled with a tsundere attitude that could scare people.
Lin Ting nodded Feng'er's head and said gently, "Don't scare tourists in the future. If you scare them, we will deduct your food rations as compensation."
Woo
At worst, I'll scare it a little after I get off the horse, and it has nothing to do with the horse.
"But the wind won't scare the boss."
As Feng'er's heart voice fell, he bent his limbs and crawled on the ground. As long as Lin Ting took a step, he could get on the horse.
Seeing such wind, Xiao Li, the horse breeder, couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Look, is this right?
Maybe I didn’t believe before that Lin Ting could communicate with animals, but now I completely believe it.
Especially Xiao Li.
Ever since she came to work at the zoo, she has been in contact with Feng'er. She knows Feng'er's temper best. When she was just learning to ride a horse, Feng'er threw her down several times. Even after she gradually became familiar with it, Feng'er never lay down to let her get on the horse.
An unknown sourness continued to spread in my heart.
If she wasn't sure and certain, she would almost doubt that this was not the horse she raised.
Feng'er saw that Lin Ting had not mounted his horse, and could not help but look back.
'Boss, come on.'
This is a way to get on a camel.
Although she could ride a horse, Feng'er did this for her. Lin Ting did not refuse. She stepped onto the saddle, reached out to grab the reins, and patted Feng'er's neck.
Feng'er understood and stood up.
But Feng'er didn't have the energy to stand up immediately, for fear of causing Lin Ting to fall. Instead, he stood up slowly on all fours to ensure that Lin Ting would not fall because of his unstable sitting position.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Li felt even more sad.
It turns out that the wind can also be a very gentle horse.
So what about all the falls she suffered over the years? Does it mean she was resistant to falls?
Seeing that Xiao Li was feeling a little disappointed, Bai Xi immediately came forward and patted him on the shoulder in a frivolous manner, "You'll get used to it."
Not used to it.
Lin Ting pulled the reins and turned to look at Bai Xi. "Wait here for a while, I'll be back after I take care of it."
Bai Xi made an OK gesture towards Lin Ting.
Since Lin Ting knew how to ride a horse, he simply pinched the horse's belly and let the horse run towards the horse farm.
Xiao Li borrowed a horse that had been used to take tourists on a tour and quickly caught up with Lin Ting.
The two stopped at the horse farm, threw the reins to the staff in charge of looking after the horses, and then took Lin Ting to the staff dormitory.
The Forest Zoo is one of the few zoos with well-equipped staff dormitories. Not only are they small bungalows, but each one also has its own yard. Many zoo employees like to live in the staff dormitories. Some nearby staff even move into the zoo staff dormitories with their families. This small yard can accommodate not only three people, but even five people.
The yard can also be used to plant things according to employees' own preferences.
"The horse farm was built earlier and is all bungalows. Later, the red panda park and the golden monkey area were built, and they are all small two-story staff dormitories." Xiao Li followed Lin Ting and explained.
Lin Ting had been to the zoo several times, but this was his first time in the staff dormitory.
"I usually spend most of my time at the horse farm and only come back to sleep at night, so the room is not decorated much." Before opening the door, Xiao Li did not forget to explain, for fear of leaving a bad impression on Lin Ting.
Lin Ting glanced around and nodded, "It's pretty good. Although it's simple, the layout is clear."
Xiao Li smiled gently at the compliment. She walked forward and opened the bathroom door. "This is the bathroom, Miss. There are disposable towels and bath products in the cabinet. These were purchased by the zoo. You wash first. I'll get you some clothes."
"The hair dryer is in the cabinet." Xiao Li added, then ran to the room to get Lin Ting a new set of clothes and placed it at the bathroom door.
Listening to the sound of water splashing in the bathroom, Xiao Li knocked on the door and said, "Sister Lin, I put the clothes at the door. You can take them later."
"I understand." Lin Ting responded.
Xiao Li did not return to the stable immediately, but sat on the steps in front of the door, teasing the big orange cat in his arms.
It was half an hour later when Lin Ting came out of the bathroom. Xiao Li didn't have any other clothes, so he prepared a simple white T-shirt and casual pants for Lin Ting. Her long hair was half dried and casually scattered behind her, giving her a refreshing feeling.
Seeing that Lin had heard it, Xiao Li stood up immediately. The big orange cat in her arms meowed and jumped out of her arms in an instant. "Sister Lin, I don't have any other clothes here. I'll ask you to wear them like this for now. I'll send your clothes to the dry cleaner this afternoon, and then to the pet shop in the same city."
"No need to go to so much trouble..."
Before Lin Ting could finish his refusal, Xiao Li immediately interrupted and said, "It's not a bother, not at all. Dry cleaning is free at our zoo."
"Wow, what a beautiful lady, meow, I want to be close to you." The big orange cat, who had been acting coquettishly in Xiao Li's arms before, suddenly jumped into Lin Ting's arms and was hugged by Lin Ting.
Daju nestled in Lin Ting's arms, rubbing her wrist constantly.
"What a nice smell, meow, I love it."
When Xiao Li saw that his cat was so close to Lin Ting, he felt betrayed.
Both of them seemed to like Lin Ting more.
I don't feel jealous at all, only envy.
Squeak
'Help!'
"Is there anyone who can help the rat? It's dying."
"Do you have any other pets?" Lin Ting, holding the big orange cat, followed the sound and walked towards the living room.
Xiao Li followed closely behind, "Yes, I also have two hamsters."
"The dormitories allocated by the zoo for staff are large enough, and everyone likes to keep some small pets to pass the time."
As Xiao Li said this, he brought Lin Ting to the hamster cage and said, "Sister Lin, these two hamsters I raised are pretty good, right?"
