Chapter 88: Chapter 88: Snow Mountain Business Trip

Early the next morning, fifteen animal rescuers dispatched by headquarters arrived at the Fur Farm one after another.

Among the eight hundred small animals, aside from two hundred seventy with major health risks and one hundred sixty captured from the West Mountain Snow Mountain that were to be sent to headquarters for thorough inspection and health monitoring, the rest of the desert furry animals were assigned to sixteen animal rescuers, including Xu Ying, to be taken back to their respective rescue zones for release.

The Fur Farm was cordoned off and officially sealed. After bidding farewell to the team led by Gray Tail and Xu Ying, they too left the Fur Farm with the birds.

Director Yi was overseeing the work at the site. He looked at Xu Ying with a satisfied expression: "Comrade Xu Ying, you’ve made a great contribution this time. I will submit an application to the organization to grant you a bonus."

He patted his head, "Although the bonus seems insignificant compared to the three million you won back this time."

This was indeed their gold-medal employee at the Desert Rescue Zone, single-handedly boosting the entire area.

Xu Ying felt very happy upon hearing about the bonus.

She intended to spend the three million on the animals, and the bonus was a reward for herself! Even a little money is still meat! Who doesn’t welcome more money?

"By the way, the rescued furry animals all trust you very much, and since you understand Beast Language, it makes communication with the animals convenient."

Director Yi said to Xu Ying, "Headquarters has decided to send you to the West Mountain Snow Mountain to deliver the animals there."

Xu Ying was not surprised to receive this assignment, "When would that be? Am I going alone?"

In a past life, when she participated in rescue operations in Africa, she had climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and had experience in animal rescue in snowy mountains.

However, she wasn’t very familiar with the road conditions at the West Mountain Snow Mountain.

"It will be within the next week. I’ll notify you once all parties have coordinated the specific date."

Director Yi reassured, "Headquarters will arrange three trucks with insulated boxes to return the animals to the West Mountain."

"The team leader of the convoy has participated in snow mountain rescue missions many times and is very familiar with the conditions of the West Mountain, so you don’t need to worry. Just follow him closely once you are on the mountain."

"Alright!"

Feeling reassured with someone accompanying her, Xu Ying, who had been thinking about the fox cubs’ mother, seized the opportunity to ask, "By the way, Director Yi, among the rescued ear foxes, there is likely one who is the mother of the five ear foxes at our rescue station. Can I bring the fox cubs to headquarters for a reunion?"

"Of course."

Director Yi nodded, "Additionally, with so many wild animals at risk of life-threatening situations being received at headquarters, your expertise as a seasoned Beast Language Communication Master is also needed."

"After you release the wild animals you’re responsible for back into the desert, come to headquarters with the fox cubs. You’ll be working at headquarters for a few days anyway, and there are volunteers watching over the rescue station."

When mentioning Ling Yu, the "volunteer," Director Yi showed a grateful smile: "Child, I don’t even know how to thank you."

"I originally intended to let Ling Yu visit the desert to see the animals and relieve some pressure, but from the way he sounded on the phone lately, it seems like he’s a completely different person, as if he’s been reborn."

Director Yi spoke more excitedly, "He is no longer the tense and lifeless person who came here originally."

Xu Ying chatted with Director Yi for a while and learned how Director Yi and Ling Yu came to know each other and formed an unlikely friendship.

Five years ago, the Desert Rescue Station was facing financial strain and wanted to find a public figure to be a goodwill ambassador to attract attention and donations from all of society for the desert rescue station.

Although it was an officially recognized role as a goodwill ambassador, it was purely charitable with no endorsement fees, and the influence of the Desert Rescue Station was insufficient. Director Yi reached out to various celebrities’ companies and studios but received no response.

Amidst rejection, only Ling Yu, who had exploded in popularity by breaking a world record, responded to Director Yi and even shot a public service announcement.

Ling Yu’s influence helped the Desert Rescue Station receive a total of five million in public donations within three months, which was a godsend for the struggling rescue station.

And during the online scandal when Ling Yu withdrew from competitions and was heavily criticized, the Desert Rescue Station, though not highly influential, still had wide connections.

For every competition Ling Yu participated in, Director Yi would mobilize his friends and family to go to the city and venue of the competition to cheer for Ling Yu with signs.

After learning the whole story, Xu Ying couldn’t help but marvel at how it was a journey traveled together from both sides.

In times of low ebb, they didn’t turn away but supported each other through difficult times.

Director Yi’s eyes were full of gratified smiles: "The results of his world-class competitions are no longer important; seeing the return of his radiant demeanor brings me so much joy."

Xu Ying sensed from Director Yi’s words that he probably wasn’t aware of Ling Yu’s progress from the intense training in recent days.

As the world championship approached, Xu Ying also looked forward to Ling Yu giving Director Yi a big surprise.

Xu Ying smiled slightly, revealing two shallow dimples: "Then let’s both look forward to the December 2nd event live broadcast together!"

"I’ve already told Ling Yu that if he wins the championship, he has to treat me to a big meal."

Director Yi chuckled: "Hahaha, just a big meal for a championship win? He should give you a camper van?"

Xu Ying laughed; after connecting with Ling Yu, she frequently mentioned the camper van, envying Ling Yu for having one. She didn’t expect Director Yi to remember: "Alright, I’ll make sure to extort him then."

Xu Ying led the truck dispatched by headquarters to return the wild animals she was responsible for to the 032 Desert Rescue Zone, and by then, it was already nearly dark.

She planned to return to the rescue station to rest for the night, and the next morning, take the fox cubs to headquarters to reunite with their mother.

The fox cubs were living happily at the rescue station, but Xu Ying occasionally heard them talking in their sleep, frequently mentioning their mother.

Many animal cubs are independently raised by the mother, but for ear foxes, who mate for life, both parents raise the cubs together.

The little foxes said their father disappeared before they were born.

Not having seen their father, the cubs lost contact with their mother while still nursing. For the cubs, it was truly a significant blow, something quite heart-wrenching.

After parking her motorcycle, Xu Ying patted her empty stomach; she was too tired to cook and thought about having some instant noodles before washing up and going to bed.

The rescue station needed daily cleaning because if left uncleaned for half a day, the ground would be covered in sand and dust. Yet this time, when Xu Ying returned and pushed open the door of the rescue station, she was astonished by the scene before her.

The rescue station’s floor was unusually clean, the tables free of a speck of dust, and every corner was tidied up meticulously, with all the cargo boxes neatly stacked.
