BXBX NOVEL Chapter 250 - Accident!
Chapter 250: Accident!
The safari park was a 5A grade tourist attraction which meant it was one of the biggest safari parks in the country. Furthermore, this safari had one main attraction, which was the availability of pandas.
The panda was the symbol of China. Cute, cuddly, and harmless. They were national treasures that were loved by all.
The safari park was an open safari. Although the animals within were free to roam, they had their own territory. With that, one must be extra careful when entering and not get out of the car as they liked.
Sister Lin bought the tickets and drove in.
Along the way, apart from private vehicles, there were also zoo tour busses. It was a busy day, and the lighthearted laughter of children could be heard.
Xiao Feifei was very excited, staring at the passing animals with a gleam in her eyes, behaving like a little girl.
“Is this your first time entering a zoo?” Ye Lingchen asked out of curiosity.
Xiao Feifei sniffled her nose, then huffed, “Yeah, is that against the rules?”
“Feifei joined the industry when she was young. She had always been busy with practicing her acting skills. When she got famous, she rushed to take part in all sorts of programs. She had no time to enjoy these things,” Sister Lin explained as she drove.
“That’s just sad.” Ye Lingchen’s brows twitched as he looked at Xiao Feifei with a weird gaze.
“Do you think everyone is like you, turning into a major hit just like that?” Sister Lin scoffed. “To be a superstar, Feifei had to endure a lot of hardships.”
“It’s okay, it’s all in the past now,” Xiao Feifei brushed it off with a smile.
Ye Lingchen looked out of the window, lost in his thoughts. He went through his transformation because of the Prodigy System. If not for that, he would probably be one of the average people. Nevermind standing out, he would most likely toil away for the rest of his life.
He was really lucky.
“Actually, my dream is to achieve financial freedom and live my life as I see fit,” Xiao Feifei said with a smile.
“Then you’ve pretty much achieved your dreams,” Ye Lingchen replied with a smile. No wonder Xiao Feifei seemed so relaxed. So she was trying to have a more carefree life.
“Hehe, half of it.” Xiao Feifei laughed.
“Half?”
“Of course there’s also finding the love of my life, getting married, and having kids,” said Xiao Feifei in a somewhat joking manner as she stole a glance at Ye Lingchen.
“For a woman, that is a major event indeed.” Ye Lingchen nodded along, then dropped the topic.
Xiao Feifei was speechless.
After that, Ye Lingchen’s trait of being a prodigy showed itself. Along the way, he would name all the animals and explain their behavior, allowing Xiao Feifei and Sister Lin to learn much from him. At the same time, their respect for him grew.
Furthermore, Ye Lingchen’s explanations were entertaining and relaxed. It was much better than those tour guides. In just a few short sentences, he managed to plant the image deep in their minds. Xiao Feifei’s laughter could occasionally be heard from within the car.
Meanwhile, Little Grey and Little Green were bouncing around in the car. They were watching the animals outside excitedly, howling occasionally, and baring their fangs at the animals outside.
Ye Lingchen noticed that their eyes showed a longing to be outside.
He had always kept them by his side. Although he brought them out to train, nature was still their best home.
“Poor Little Green and Little Grey,” Xiao Feifei could not help but voice out as she also noticed it. “If only we could let them out.”
Ye Lingchen had a sudden idea as he looked at the two wolf pups.
He had trained them well. It was impossible for them to get lost. In this safari, there were only so few animals that could threaten them. At least they would not be in any life-threatening danger. Why not...let them run freely?
“Might as well.” Ye Lingchen’s words caused Xiao Feifei to be slightly alarmed. “You can’t be thinking of letting them go out?”
“Why not?” Ye Lingchen laughed, then gave Little Green and Little Grey a signal to them, telling them to follow him, be ready for his summons, and not to cause trouble around them.
Little Green and Little Grey were howling excitedly, bouncing around Ye Lingchen energetically.
“Daddy is letting us go out to play. Awooo, I’m so excited.”
“Did you see that ram? Let’s go scare it once we get out!”
“Are you sure that’s wise? Will daddy get angry?”
“We’re just scaring it. I think that we are quite strong now.”
...
“Remember to look for my signal and return anytime!” Ye Lingchen issued a final order, then sneakily opened a slit in the car door when there was nobody around.
Little Green and Little Grey howled and dashed outside quickly, leaving only an afterimage.
Watching from the car, they looked like some spirits that just regained their freedom, running along excitedly and howling at some animals, quickly escaping from their line of sight.
“Will they be fine?” Xiao Feifei was worried. “Will they get lost, or get wounded by other animals?”
“Relax, it’s fine.” Ye Lingchen smiled.
Their car continued driving forward. Ye Lingchen could occasionally hear the wolf howls and the cries of surprise of some other animals. He could not help but shake his head in bitter laughter.
Right then, Sister Lin was stunned for a moment, inadvertently slowing the car down. “It seems something had happened up front.”
Ye Lingchen and Xiao Feifei both frowned. As they looked over, many cars gathered further up front. At the same time, many people were out of their cars, pointing towards something in their heated discussion.
“What happened, why are they out of their cars in the safari?” Xiao Feifei asked curiously.
“This should be near the danger area. I’ll go down and have a look. You both drive over slowly.” Ye Lingchen got out of the car, just to see that within the crowd, a woman was watching with her face lined with worry and anxiety.
Beside her, a middle-aged man and an old lady were also looking in the same direction. That old lady’s breaths were short and rapid. She was in tears and trembling in fear. In her hands were some Buddhist prayer beads as she muttered a prayer, begging Buddha for mercy.
“Tiantian, climb up quick!” The woman’s voice was shrill as she screamed emotionally. “Faster, don’t look back. Just run up here!”
The middle-aged man instead begged at the crowd. “Please help me find a long stick and pull my son up. Please, everyone!”
Ye Lingchen focused his gaze, noticing that further ahead, a boy was having difficulty climbing up. He seemed to be in a nervous wreck covered in mud.
“Sigh, how can this parent be so careless. How can you let a kid out of the car over here?”
“I heard that the kid wanted to pee. At first, he walked to a tree nearby, but then accidentally slipped and rolled down there!”
“Guys, let’s go find something and see if we can help pull him up.”
“This place is quite high! Furthermore, it’s very narrow. It’s very difficult for him to climb up alone.”
“Why is the safari rescue team so slow? What’s with this efficiency?!”
“F*ck, look over there. Something’s coming!”
Everyone was caught by surprise. The woman lost all her composure, unable to keep her calm. Her voice had changed, shaking uncontrollably. “Tiantian, climb up quick! Don’t look back! Faster...”
