No matter what Daddy Bai talked about, Curtis was about to make a response to it. It was impossible to tell that he wasn’t a human and had only e to this world from another world a few months ago.
As a taxi driver, Daddy Bai was able to meet many people and hear about a lot of news. He talked about this and that, then suddenly brought up the rumor that had spread like wildfire about a leopard hurting people.
“People these days are so used to being the higher species that they’ve forgotten about the laws of the natural world. They dare to do any idiotic things.” As Daddy Bai said this, he took out his phone and tapped on the screen, saying, “Look, this guy even tried to kiss a crocodile!”
Daddy Bai flipped his hand upward. “He ended up getting his face bitten badly by the crocodile. What can we say about this?”
“Pffft!” The picture of someone kissing a crocodile was too painful to the eyes. Curtis was caught off guard and ended up choking on the wine.
Curtis agreed with Daddy Bai’s words, but as a non-human, he felt that he had to bootlick the humans in front of his father-in-law.
Making a few light coughs, Curtis said, “But people can only be spoiled into having such daring characters because humans are smart and have access to resources.”
Daddy Bai smiled. Already half-drunk and groggy, he didn’t continue the conversation.
Mommy Bai was done eating long ago and had been sitting there with them. Seeing the silence between them, she asked casually, “Little Ke, what’s your major? What do you plan to do in the future?”
Bai Qingqing panicked and looked toward Curtis, feeling worried.
Curtis’s expression looked very normal, but his gaze looked a little blank. This made Bai Qingqing even more worried.
Curtis looked like he was drunk!
Two 500ml bottles of wine consisting of 40% alcohol content were already emptied. Out of which, at least one-fourth was drunk by Curtis.
Curtis only reacted to Mommy Bai’s words after a few seconds. The moment he did, his voice still sounded gentle and cold, not showing any signs of drunkenness.
“To speak the truth, I’m in the midst of preparing to open a zoo.”
Daddy Bai, Mommy Bai, and Bai Xiaofan were all taken by surprise. Bai Xiaofan was the first to speak up. “Is that true? Can I go and visit for free?”
“Of course you can.” Curtis supported his head with his left hand to prevent it from smashing onto the table.
He felt as if he had been poisoned by something similar to the scorpion’s hallucinating poison. But this poison was a lot lighter than the scorpion’s and he could still resist it.
“Wow, cool!” Bai Xiaofan was extremely agitated. Bai Qingqing was seated between him and Curtis. Bai Xiaofan inclined toward Curtis, looking like he had a strong urge to squeeze his sister away so that he could pounce on Curtis.
“How’re the preparations? When can you bring me there? What animals are there?” Bai Xiaofan shot out questions after questions.
Curtis’s lips curled up into a mysterious smile and said, “You can e anytime. As for the animals…” After thinking about it, Curtis said, “There are… three leopards, four large-sized eagles, one tiger, and a snake.”
“Cough cough cough…” Bai Qingqing wasn’t eating anything, but she ended up choking on her saliva.
Curtis really was drunk! What were those animals? He had counted himself, the children, as well as the two leopards Parker stole.
“Wow! I want to see them!” Bai Xiaofan said with great yearning.
“Alright! I’ll bring you there tomorrow!” Curtis said.
Mommy Bai threw Bai Xiaofan a reproachful glare, then looked toward Curtis again with a beaming face. “Don’t pamper him. We’ll go visit when your zoo opens.”
Bai Qingqing also twisted Bai Xiaofan’s ear, saying, “Ke Di is very busy. How would he have time to bring you out to play? I agree with Mommy’s words. We’ll go together after it opens.”
Bai Xiaofan wasn’t too willing, but he still gave in.
