âDad, can you tell me how black bears check if a person is dead?â Ye Jie asked anxiously, she was really curious.
âThey say bears touch a personâs nose to see if theyâre breathing and stuff, theyâll also tap various parts of the body to see if thereâs any response, or even drag them around. Anyway, itâs not that easy to fool a black bear,â Ye Fan said.
He had seen this on a survival show on TV, and read a bit about it in books, so he guessed the real truth couldnât be too far off.
âWow, so thatâs how it is,â Ye Jie admired her dad with a look of worship.
At that moment, she felt her dad had once again become a towering figure in her heart.
âDad, youâre amazing!â The little one clapped her hands, laughing joyously.
âOnly now you realize how awesome your dad is, sheesh, where have you been all this time?â Ye Fan smiled, his eyes brimming with affection.
Although he spoke like this, inside he was truly over the moon.
It really felt great to be praised by his own baby!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Such a sense of satisfaction and achievement!
âDad has always been amazing, and now even more so,â Ye Jie immediately piped up again.
Indeed, the little girlâs mind worked quickly.
She didnât even think before blurting it out.
âYou cheeky girl,â Ye Fan laughed.
In fact, Ye Fan really didnât know who the little one had learned this from, how she had become so clever.
It certainly wasnât from his side!
Nor from Bai Susu, right?
Could it be, his mom?
He hadnât heard that children turn out like their grandmothers.

In the end, they went to see the red-crowned cranes and many other precious birds.
âDad, these little birds arenât as pretty as Niuniu or as badass, I donât like them. How great would it be to braise them all, keeping them is just a waste of food, and I bet they wonât even taste good,â Ye Jie said as she looked at the birds in front of her, her eyes full of disdain.
So ugly!
Is this all?
And the zoo treats them like treasures?
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan was instantly speechless.
This girl, how can she only think about eating.
These birds are not for eating.
Many of them are protected species, eating them, wouldnât that land us in big trouble?
This little missy has quite the explosive personality.
Anything ugly or not nice she wants to eat, criticizing them as a waste of food, what a fierce one.
âYou canât eat them, these are protected animals. If we eat them, weâre done for, and many of them here are second-class protected birds. Itâs not a simple matter,â Ye Fan said.
âAlright, if we donât like them, letâs not look anymore. Letâs go find mom and grandma!â Ye Jie suggested.
âOkay, letâs go then!â Ye Fan nodded in agreement.
It was getting late.
Several hours had passed, and it was time to meet up.
Soon itâd be time to go home as well, and the zoo was up on the mountain, it would take a while to get home.
Their child was still young, it was best not to travel at night.
They had to try to get home before it got dark.
Ye Fan took Ye Jieâs hand, and they headed to the central area with Bai Susu.
Then, he took out his phone and called Bai Susu and the others; they quickly arrived.
The two waited there
~~~~ after waiting for about fifteen minutes
Zhao Xue was also about to head home when she unexpectedly saw the child she had helped and that handsome young man.
After hesitating for a moment, she still walked over.
âWhat a coincidence, I didnât expect to run into you again. Little friend, do you still remember me?â Zhao Xue said to Ye Jie with a smile.
âQuick, call her sister, and thank you again for earlier,â Ye Fan said, expressing his thanks.
âHello, auntie,â Ye Jie called out directly.
Actually, calling her auntie wasnât such a big deal.
Really, itâs worth noting that at first, Ye Jie called her a pretty sister, but now she was straightaway calling her auntie, a contrast that was a bit much to handle.
Moreover, Ye Jie had given a rather perfunctory smile to Zhao Xue.
Zhao Xue wasnât dumb; she could see what was happening.
But with the childâs father there, she couldnât pick a quarrel with a child, could she?
Forget it, forget it.
Although the childâs attitude towards her just now and now was different.
But children are just like that.
Itâs normal.
Zhao Xue didnât think much of it.
âIâm Zhao Xue, pleased to meet you. Your child is really cute,â Zhao Xue said with a smile, not the least offended by the childâs earlier behavior.
Ye Fan was somewhat taken aback.
Seeing how composed the girl was, he felt somewhat apologetic,
especially since she had helped Ye Jie previously.
Children donât understand, but as adults, of course, they do.
We donât slap someone who offers a smiling face, and even more so, this girl had helped Ye Jie.
âHello, Iâm Ye Fan, this is my little daughter Ye Jie. Her personality is just that straightforward; donât mind her!â Ye Fan said politely.
âNo, not at all, I really like such a cute child. Mr. Ye, youâre too polite. Is this your little daughter?â Zhao Xue asked, looking at Ye Fan quizzically.
This man, up close, was even more handsome!
It made her heart beat faster.
âYes, thatâs my little girl!â Ye Fan had just replied when he was interrupted by Ye Jie at his side.
âMom, grandma, grandpa, and sisters, youâre finally here!â The little rascal Ye Jie ran straight toward her mom Bai Susu, her loud voice making one wonder if it was intentional, or what, but it sure gave Zhao Xue a start.
âWife, you guys finally made it, Xiaoye Jie was asking for you,â Ye Fan also said with a smile as he approached, while Zhao Xue felt a bit awkward standing alone.
âWho is this?â Bai Susu asked Ye Fan, her tone neutral.
