Chapter 1157 Five Red Pandas

Su Yehao listened to Nangong Tian's words.

He personally took some cherries he had bought from the airport and brought them to the kitchen to wash them.

This surprised the nanny. After all, the last time she saw Su Yehao enter the kitchen... was the last time, so long ago that she couldn't remember.

He said as he washed:

"It's your first time being a mother, so don't be too nervous. As long as the doctor says everything is fine during the checkup, then it's fine. How about I take you and Jiang Yu out for a fancy dinner tonight?"

Hearing about the fancy dinner, Nangong Tian immediately perked up, resisting the urge to tease him about not being a dad for the first time. She only said:

"Okay, let's go eat steak tonight. Eating beef doesn't easily make you fat. It just so happens that a new dress I ordered earlier was delivered from Milan today. Let's pick a crowded place, preferably where we can run into some reporters, so they don't think I've turned into a fat woman after giving birth."

Su Yehao was amused, and asked:

"You're the only one who cares about that, right? Who else would care? And you were buying clothes while you were pregnant? Aren't you afraid they won't fit?"

"Of course they would. Someone said I looked haggard last time, probably when I was seven or eight months pregnant. I have to earn back the face I lost. I saw a designer in a magazine, and I happened to have her contact information, so I bought a beautiful dress in advance. That gives me the motivation to lose weight..."

It was obvious that her postpartum weight loss had already been effective, otherwise Nangong Tian wouldn't be thinking about going out to show off.

Since her family runs a hospital, they never lack milk.

Su Yehao didn't force her to eat more supplements. As long as this girl was happy, that was fine. She maintained a light diet and a small amount of exercise during her confinement, and lost more than six pounds.

After looking her up and down, her figure was almost the same as before, but... a little sexier.

Seeing Nangong Tian so excited, Su Yehao wisely shut up and instead asked:

"Yesterday you sent me a message, telling me that something big happened at home, acting mysterious and keeping me in suspense. What is it? Talking halfway will drive people crazy. If you don't tell me now, I'll chase you down with a forty-meter-long sword."

"Ah~ I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned it. I'll take some fruit with me to visit our two red pandas. No, it's already become five! I thought the female red panda had just gotten fat, but I didn't expect her to suddenly give birth to a litter of cubs, which shocked Jiang Yu and me. The zoo's veterinarian, Lin, said he had never seen a red panda litter with three cubs. He even sent some milk powder this morning, worried that some of the cubs would starve to death."

Su Yehao looked surprised and asked, "When did she get pregnant? I went to feed them both last week, and I didn't see anything unusual."

"I don't know either. No wonder they were fighting before. I guess it's like me, with hormonal imbalances during pregnancy, so they were in a bad mood."

Reaching out and putting a cherry in her mouth, Nangong Tian felt much better since giving birth to her baby.

In fact, even when she was carrying her big belly, she didn't lose her temper much. Life was smooth and comfortable.

Su Yehao wiped his hands and went out with her to the glass room where the red pandas were usually kept.

In the garden, there was also a group of Sulcata tortoises wandering around. These were his new pets. As for the smelly alpacas, they had spat at Jiang Yu repeatedly, so they had been donated to the zoo to accompany the two pygmy hippos he had in the beginning.

After raising pets for so long, Su Yehao finally discovered that turtles were the easiest to take care of, but the two red pandas at home were also very interesting. If there was anything wrong with red pandas, it was probably that they were too cute. Their population has declined sharply in modern times. Some people like to keep them as pets, and even more terrible people make them into hats, scarves, and so on. These little guys are just the right size.

Su Yehao's two were brought back from Japan. They were artificially bred and had complete procedures. They were kept at home in the name of breeding and protection. Air conditioning was turned on for them throughout the summer, and a cool cellar was also dug.

He never expected that these two little guys would actually produce offspring.

Arriving next to the glass room, Su Yehao stopped Nangong Tian and said:

"You wait for me outside. You're usually in contact with the baby a lot. It would be troublesome if there were any bugs."

"Okay, then bring the cubs to me to see through the glass. I didn't see them at all yesterday."

Su Yehao nodded in agreement and said with a smile:

"I remember there was an animal protection organization that said it was bad for me to keep them. The problem is that I also want to let them return to nature, but these two little guys have to have the ability to survive in the wild. I'll post something to clarify, saying that I'm really protecting animals here, so as not to be relentlessly attacked, which would affect the work of the charity."

There are bad people who do bad things all their lives, and are called prodigal sons returning home if they do one good deed at the end.

There are also good people who do good things all their lives, and are scolded for finally revealing their true colors if they do one bad deed at the end.

People often like to seize on a fault and then completely deny a person's merits.

Knowing this, Su Yehao chose to live his own life behind closed doors from the beginning, neither deliberately creating certain personas nor thinking of being a completely good person.

Su Yehao was thinking of taking the opportunity to post something now mainly to avoid affecting his animal protection project, and to let more people care about red pandas. It had nothing to do with him personally, and it was purely to protect the species on Earth.

Squatting at the door of the small wooden house, he poked his head inside and saw three little guys moving, occasionally making weak noises.

He put the apple on the wooden board, got up, clapped his hands, and didn't disturb them any more. He said to Nangong Tian:

"Due to human influence, it is said that the rate of species extinction has been almost a thousand times faster. Someone wrote to me before, saying that there is an animal in the mainland called the Chinese pangolin. The ancients believed that its scales were a valuable medicine, and they have been continuously hunted for a long time. In fact, their shells are almost equivalent to human fingernails. If fingernails cause a species to disappear completely, wouldn't that be a joke?"

"...That's so pitiful. Are there still such animals in the world?"

"Yes, but the number should not be large. Wild animals are too fragile. Even elephants or tigers cannot escape human hunting methods, so they must be protected."

Su Yehao was just chatting.

He had already lost his pursuit in terms of material things, so he chose to spend more time pondering some other issues.

Nangong Tian, who simply felt that many animals were pitiful, replied seriously:

"Then, Brother Hao, work harder and earn more money to hire people to take care of them. The alpacas at home gave birth to many cubs before, and now the red pandas have also given birth to three cubs. I feel that if you were a breeder, you should have a promising future."

"...That seems to make sense. It's probably because I usually take such good care of them that they're well-fed and start thinking about other things."
