The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s-Chapter 844: Insane Zoo (3)

"Wow, it’s your birthday? If I’d known earlier, I wouldn’t have eaten that cake this morning," Feng Tian said with a look of regret on her face. The thirteen-year-old girl still hadn’t completely shed her baby fat, and her cheeks were a bit puffy. When she was frustrated, her cheeks puffed out, making her seem so pitiable.

Ruan Jiaojiao immediately responded, "It’s okay, there’s still the candy, thank you so much."

Perhaps it was habit, but Ruan Jiaojiao always spoke with a smile, her eyes perpetually curved, and being so pretty, Feng Tian just followed her out of the exam room and was already smitten with her to no end. Feng Tian reluctantly parted ways when they reached the Ruanlin Family, though the teacher was already prompting their group to leave, so she had to go with heavy reluctance.

In this day and age, communication wasn’t well-developed, so there was no way to exchange contact details—it was likely this meeting would be their only one.

Ruan Jiaojiao felt a bit of reluctance as well, but this soon dissipated with the "big surprise" from Ruan Jianguo.

Changling is the most bustling area in their province; if something isn’t available in their city, it can be found there, like a zoo, for instance.

Ruan Jianguo bought ten tickets to the zoo; he was taking Ruan Jiaojiao to see the animals!

"..." Ruan Jiaojiao felt that Ruan Jianguo might have misunderstood the meaning of "big surprise."

In their village, there wasn’t an animal you couldn’t find on the mountain in front. If they ever wanted to, they could ask the silly wolf to bring whatever they wished to see right to their home, no need to spend so much money to see them here.

Of course, while Ruan Jiaojiao was inwardly criticizing, she still had to pretend to be surprised on the outside; otherwise, it would be too disheartening for Ruan Jianguo, who apparently had to wait in line for a long time to get these tickets.

Today was Ruan Jiaojiao’s birthday, so naturally, the lunch was quite a feast. To make the most of their time, Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t sleep at noon, and after eating they all went to the zoo.

Zoo tickets were not cheap: twelve yuan for adults and half price for children. However, the child ticket wasn’t calculated by age but by height instead, so except for Ruan Jiaojiao, they all bought full-price tickets.

"..." Once again feeling dejected by her height, Ruan Jiaojiao was quite annoyed.

It wasn’t a holiday, so there weren’t many people in the zoo, just a few adults bringing their kids to visit.

The group that Ruan Jiaojiao was a part of took up ten slots, sticking out like a sore thumb wherever they went.

Ruan Jiaojiao wasn’t very interested in seeing animals; after all, their mountain had everything they could want, and they also had Xiaobai, Meatball, Sanmao... She didn’t find these zoo animals very attractive.

But what she didn’t realize was how much attraction she had toward these animals.

As soon as they entered the zoo, they first saw some peacocks roaming around. Directly opposite the entrance there was a small artificial hill, surrounded by a fence, with a grassed area inside where four peacocks stood.

The four peacocks all seemed lethargic and didn’t pay any attention to the visitors, either dozing off with their heads lowered or preening their feathers while tilting their heads.

Beside the fence stood a little boy, looking somewhat upset at the peacocks: "Mom, I want to see the peacocks’ tails, why won’t they show them to me?"

This appeared to be a family of three who had come to the zoo specifically to see the animals.

The mother standing beside the little boy, with her hair curled into big waves and dressed in bell-bottoms, was very trendy. Hearing her son’s words, she also looked a bit aggrieved and turned to the man beside her, "Honey, I want to see it too."
