Whine~
The white albino panda responded softly with two sentences.
But instead of lowering its head, it shyly yet curiously stared at Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng's heart was filled with joy. As long as this little one wasn't shy, things would be much easier.
Otherwise, even communicating would be a hassle.
Seeing this scene, the online viewers were amused.
"Um... This is the first time I've seen a streamer ask someone's name right off the bat. Our host is a real straightshooter."
"Haha, and it's a panda he's asking!"
"Looks like this white albino panda isn't too shy either."
"Maybe it's because bun is around. Otherwise, it probably wouldn't dare come out."
The white albino panda's response also delighted the viewers.
This rare white panda was already a precious sight, and they couldn't risk anything happening to it.
At that moment, seeing its friend call out, the nearby bun happily called out as well.
The two differently colored pandas had completely contrasting personalities.
Not only was bun a little glutton, but it also had a big heart.
If Jiang Feng hadn't unintentionally mentioned its friend today, bun probably wouldn't have remembered this albino panda.
Jiang Feng realized then that this albino panda must be too shy to venture out of the bamboo grove.
Otherwise, it would have found bun long ago.
Jiang Feng squatted down, smiling as he petted bun, then reached out to pet the albino panda as well.
The albino panda instinctively shied away but hesitated for a moment before allowing Jiang Feng to place his hand on its head.
It tilted its small head, staring at Jiang Feng with great curiosity.
As Jiang Feng stroked it, the albino panda slowly closed its eyes.
It wore an expression of bliss.
That smile was incredibly healing, instantly brightening one's mood.
It stood in stark contrast to bun's grin beside it.
Bun grinned wide and uninhibited, while the albino panda smiled with its mouth closed.
Jiang Feng's heart settled.
It seemed this albino panda had gradually accepted him.
"You're so white. How about I call you Yuan Xiao?"
Jiang Feng spoke up, taking the liberty of naming the albino panda.
The panda, in the midst of enjoying the petting, was stunned. It opened its eyes and stared dazedly at Jiang Feng.
Clearly, it didn't understand what he meant.
Jiang Feng realized this little one's intelligence might not match bun's.
After all, bun had "evolved" once before.
So he pointed at bun, "Bun, you explain it to her."
Following Jiang Feng's instruction, bun immediately started whining at the albino panda with its mouth agape.
The albino panda, however, just cocked its head in confusion as it watched bun.
It wasn't until a while later that the albino panda finally understood the meaning.
It raised its small head, its small mouth closed and eyes squinted in a smile as it gazed at Jiang Feng.
Although it didn't understand the meaning of "Yuan Xiao," it quite liked the name.
"Are we settling on that name already?"
"I'm really curious why you didn't call it Tangyuan."
"If you called it Tangyuan, you'd just ask why not Yuan Xiao again, you nitpicker."
"I think Yuwanr would work, since they all look about the same anyway."
"Ah yes, yes, yes!"
"Let's just go with Yuan Xiao. I quite like it!"
The viewers chimed in with their own comments.
They hadn't expected Jiang Feng to decide on the albino panda's name so quickly.
Jiang Feng finally felt at ease, as it seemed the albino panda had truly accepted him.
Then all that was left was to take Yuan Xiao back with him.
"Bun, shall we take your friend Yuan Xiao back with us?"
Jiang Feng petted bun's small head as he spoke.
Hearing Jiang Feng's words, bun excitedly whined in response.
It was clearly overjoyed.
After all, the two had always been together.
If Jiang Feng hadn't suddenly appeared, they would still be living in this bamboo grove.
Bun turned and whined at Yuan Xiao, its happy calls evident.
Hearing bun's cries, the albino panda Yuan Xiao squinted its eyes in a smile.
"Mission accomplished!"
Jiang Feng grinned as he stood up.
Then he bent over and scooped up the two little ones.
"Let's go home!"
With a panda in each arm, Jiang Feng left the others in the livestream green with envy.
Even the forestry officials felt the same.
They had only photographed albino pandas but never captured one before.
So the albino panda Jiang Feng encountered was especially significant.
"Jealous, so jealous. I want to hug a panda too."
"Is this white panda going to become a streamer too?"
"It's quite possible, since the host was the first to adopt a panda."
"Brothers, charge! Take down the host and snatch the pandas!"
"Forestry officials, come manage this! This guy has two pandas! So unfair!"
"I think the country should give each of us a panda. Me first!"
"Get lost! Why don't you ask the country to give you a wife while you're at it?!"
Meanwhile, after picking up the two pandas, Jiang Feng closed the livestream and headed out of the dark bamboo grove.
...
Soon, he emerged from the bamboo grove with the two little ones and reached the village entrance.
When the villagers lounging at the entrance saw Jiang Feng carrying two pandas, they were startled.
Good heavens, he went out and came back with another bear?
They stared at Yuan Xiao in curiosity.
It was the first time they had seen such a rare creature.
The elders gathered around, constantly asking Jiang Feng what kind of animal the white one was.
They had never seen anything like its snow-white fur before.
However, some elderly villagers mentioned seeing such white animals when they went hunting in the mountains in their youth.
As Yuan Xiao had never seen so many people before, it timidly covered its eyes with its paws, not daring to look at the crowd.
Bun, on the other hand, was much bolder.
It had already become familiar with the villagers and kept reaching out its small paws to greet them.
The villagers roared with laughter as the two little ones amused them.
"This is a white albino panda, a kind of giant panda, and bun's friend."
Jiang Feng smiled, then placed bun and Yuan Xiao in the trailer of a tractor.
He walked to the front, started the tractor, and it rumbled off toward his home.
Just as Jiang Feng was nearing home, his phone suddenly rang.
He stopped the tractor, took out his phone, and frowned upon seeing the caller.
Su Qinghuan from the forestry department?
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ...

to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.
