Chapter 199: Chapter 199: Big Gold, The Wisest Fool

Up in the mountains, in the emergency station, two young people stood awkwardly before Duanmu and his colleagues.

“So you two want to learn and then apply for a veterinarian position at the rescue and shelter center in your area?”

“Yeah, if we run a private shop or do odd jobs, those people will definitely not let things slide. But if we have the state behind us, they wouldn’t dare to mess around.”

“That makes sense.”

Duanmu stroked his chin and gave Xiao Song a conspiratorial look.

“How about this, let’s not even consider going back to Jin Province for now. Once you’ve learned the ropes, work with me for a while. Once you’ve got some achievements under your belt, then return home in glory, how about that?”

Did that sound a tad unreliable?

Chen Ying hadn’t even responded with a smile when Old Gao beside him started to chime in.

“Let me tell you two, this is a golden opportunity, grab it while you can. Miss this chance and there won’t be another like it.”

When they heard that Duanmu and Sister Xiao Song were about to go to a newly established reserve in Qing Province to be in charge of the medical team, the two young men’s eyes lit up.

Everyone knows that the end of the universe is a government post.

Although they couldn’t land a formal post right now, getting a contract-based position would still be great. Besides, the new place would definitely be short-staffed; as long as their skills were up to par, becoming a founding member is much better than being a small fry later on, right?

“But I need to lay this out upfront: you two will start by learning from Brother Ying. Once you pass his assessment, and he writes you a recommendation letter, I’ll consider bringing you on board. Even though the new unit is short-staffed, we still insist on quality over quantity. We just can’t afford to have people who are just killing time.”

“Understood, Brother Duanmu, don’t worry. We will definitely study hard and strive to pass Brother Ying’s, no, Mr. Chen’s assessment as soon as possible.”

It just so happened that Duanmu and Xiao Song were leaving in a couple of days, which meant the positions they left vacant were perfect for these two youngsters to fill.

“You two had better not wander around recklessly.”

Little Sen took them to put away their luggage, and for the time being, they settled for makeshift beds on the third floor in Old Gao’s area.

“We’ve had a lot of giant pandas around here lately,” Little Sen warned soberly as he glanced at the two, who looked excited.

“Don’t think that just because giant pandas look all soft and cute in videos and on TV, that they aren’t bears at heart.”

As these words were spoken, the two young men cooled down a bit.

“Besides giant pandas, we also have flower leopards, lynx, golden cats, and other medium to large predators around on a daily basis. Before you two are familiar with your surroundings, don’t just wander around. Otherwise, no one will take responsibility if you get accidentally hurt.”

“Ah, there are leopards too?”

The young man with the tattooed arms looked nervously around him.

“What’s there to be afraid of? As long as you don’t make threatening movements, they won’t even bother with you.”

Little Sen still felt a sting of envy; even being as familiar with the animals as he was, to get a chance to stroke Jinya’s fur, he needed Brother Ying’s permission, and Jinya would barely allow it.

Not a second more.

As for Little Jin, he always had the same expression for him: Hmph, (￣_,￣).

Talking more about it would just lead to tears.

The clouded leopards locked in the animal shed didn’t require their attention. In fact, the main task for the two youngsters was to start by learning from Little Sen how to take care of the animals, grasp some basics about ingredient mixing and basic treatment, as well as knowledge of post-injury rehabilitation and massage.

Acupuncture was the only subject that Chen Ying had to teach them in a dedicated class.

“You guys are a bit late. Just a few days ago, those two female clouded leopards needed acupuncture every day, and you could have learned a lot by following along. Now, that old leopard doesn’t need acupuncture anymore, just daily dressing changes and massages.”

As for the female leopard in the ICU ward, even Little Sen wasn’t able to handle her yet, much less pass it off to the two of them.

The two young men hardly slept that night.

Excitement and anxiety kept them awake until almost dawn before they finally fell asleep.

By the time I woke up, it was almost nine o’clock.

Chen Ying didn’t call them to get up. Putting himself in the shoes of these two young kids, he figured they must have also had a restless night.

When the two youths hurriedly scrambled downstairs, they suddenly came to a screeching halt.

Today, for some unknown reason, all the furry creatures had returned to bask in the sun, except for Great Bai and Jiaojiao.

In the trees, on the ground, on the wooden racks, it was all covered with cotton dumplings.

The snake mongoose scurried over the railing and, as it passed by the two of them, made a vigorous leap, using the stern youth’s head to bounce up to the “cat climbing frame” hanging on the second floor. Then, with a slide tackle, it delivered itself to Jinya’s mouth.

Jinya slapped it right into Little Jin’s arms.

Just as the two young men were shocked and ready to rescue the snake mongoose, they saw Little Jin holding the sleek-furred snake mongoose and giving it a hearty lick.

The snake mongoose was not the least bit flustered; its expression, as steady as an old dog’s, seemed to mock the two unsettled youths.

What kind of magical place is this? The dream cottage of the forest goddess?

Oh, no, the forest god? That’s not right either. The god of nature?

Let’s just stick with Druid.

Whoever has great virtue shall pet the fluffy; truth is not deceitful.

The two greenhorns carefully made their way into the Ingredient Room along the wall, and under the gaze of all the fuzzies, they were too scared to even breathe.

“You two really need to work on your courage,” Brother Duanmu said as he came over with a tray.

“Have you two ever operated an X-ray machine before?”

“I—I’ve done it for kittens and puppies.”

“Alright, you’ll do. Come with me. Today we need to do the final check on their forelimb recovery.”

They didn’t let the slender female leopard undergo an X-ray; after all, it might have little babies with the sister-loving clouded leopard, and it was best to avoid such radiation if possible.

For its treatment, Chen Ying mainly relied on touch.

Actually, if they weren’t sending them back to Dian Province, even the other two wouldn’t need an X-ray. But now that the rescue centers in the two provinces needed to coordinate work, these reports had to be produced.

A month later, if it was confirmed that the female leopard was pregnant, they would generally wait until after it successfully gave birth before sending it back. If not, it would leave along with the older female leopard.

As for whether the sister-loving clouded leopard would miss the female leopard, well, for felines, those who know, know.

By the time the two clouded leopards had their checks done, the furries in the woods had already dispersed.

It was as if they had their own network of information, coming specifically to see the new poop scoopers.

Jinya didn’t go to sleep today; instead, she came to pester Chen Ying.

“Woo woo, it’s so annoying, the male is going crazy again, bringing other males to see me every day. Little Jin is about to lose his patience and fight him.”

Chen Ying really didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

That male lynx was kind of like Little Jin’s buddy, but for some reason, even though he himself didn’t click with Jinya, he seemed bent on believing that Jinya and Little Jin shouldn’t be together, constantly causing trouble.

It was that kind of “I look out for you as a brother, and you can’t go wrong listening to me” behavior.

Even Big Gold, who wasn’t one to overthink things, complained about never having seen such a blockhead.

Big Gold, though he couldn’t understand why Little Jin was involved with Jinya, didn’t understand but respected it. He didn’t consider introducing female Golden Cats to disrupt their relationship.

After all, when the day of need truly came, they would have to part ways whether anyone interfered or not. Why go through the trouble of being the bad guy?

From a certain perspective, Big Gold did have a bit of a simple-minded, wise air to him.
