Chapter 94 Li Shiming's Little Thoughts (3K)

Sunday.

Chen Jingle was busy collecting moon dew last night, so he stayed up until dawn and then used meditation to replace rest. He went out at the entrance of the Forestry Bureau at around 8 o'clock.

Fortunately, whether he sleeps or not doesn't affect him much.

Not long after WX sent a message, Chen Kexin came out from inside carrying Lin Yuqing.

"Uncle~"

The children called out from afar, and before the person even arrived, their little arms were already outstretched, wanting a hug.

Chen Jingle caught her with a smile.

The little guy rushed into his uncle's arms and hugged his neck tightly, refusing to let go.

Sister Xin immediately transferred a large red envelope to Chen Jingle as the expenses for today's activities, and said with a smile, "I'm troubling you with Yuqing."

"Okay, leave it to me." Once you've taken the money, you're bound to do the job.

This amount of money is more than enough for the two of them to play all day.

Boss atmosphere!

Sister Xin turned to Lin Yuqing and said, "Be good and listen to your uncle, okay?"

The little guy nodded obediently.

After Sister Xin returned to her workplace, Chen Jingle asked Lin Yuqing, "Uncle hasn't had breakfast yet, Yuqing, have you had breakfast?"

"Eat~"

The child's voice was sweet and childlike.

"Why don't you and your uncle go have breakfast first?"

"Good~"

"Then sit down properly!"

Chen Jingle put her on the back of the electric scooter and told her to hold on to her clothes so she wouldn't fall off while the scooter was moving.

First, I found a popular breakfast shop nearby and ordered two servings of rice noodle rolls and two bottles of fresh milk.

The rice noodle rolls were Chen Jingle's, and a bottle of fresh milk was given to Lin Yuqing so she could sit next to him and drink it slowly. The long-haired leash was handed to her so she wouldn't get bored.

This combination of a big cat, a small cat, and a kitten is truly eye-catching.

While eating rice noodle rolls, Chen Jingle glanced at the pedestrians and vehicles passing by.

The place was bustling with activity, and the blaring of horns was incessant. Occasionally, people would almost bump into each other, then stop and exchange greetings with each other's mothers.

Faced with this situation, passersby not only did not step forward to dissuade them, but even hoped that the two sides would fight, so they could watch the spectacle.

This is what morning is like in a small town.

Chen Jingle smiled slightly; he enjoyed the feeling of observing the masses from the perspective of an outsider.

……

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, they prepared to meet with Li Shiming.

The two agreed to meet at 9:30.

Too early and the other person might not be able to get up, plus there's likely to be traffic jams during rush hour. Too late and the sun will be too strong, so 9:30 is just right.

The aquarium is located in the southeast of Jiangbei City.

As mentioned before, Jiangbei is a coastal city, but its coastline is not very long. Aquariums are usually built on the beach.

Jiangbei has very limited marine resources; it doesn't even have a decent beach. It's already quite good that it can build an aquarium; we can't ask for too much.

Upon arriving at the aquarium, I could see Li Shiming waiting at the entrance from afar.

Today, Li Shiming is still dressed as a pure and sweet girl. She is wearing a white tank top with a blue sun protection shirt, a white knee-length skirt, and white sneakers.

She carried a white canvas bag, and her long hair, styled in soft waves, was draped over her shoulders.

Chen Jingle was more concerned about why this woman always arrived earlier than him.

Impressed!

I parked my electric scooter and walked over.

When Lin Yuqing saw Li Shiming, she was taken aback at first, then pointed and said, "It's Sister Piaoniang!"

She still remembers the other person.

Chen Jingle was too lazy to correct him; let him call her whatever he wanted.

Li Shiming greeted her with a smile: "Hello, little Lin Yuqing, it's nice to see you again."

The little one is so cute. I wish my daughter would be this cute when she grows up.

She then looked at Chen Jingle, her eyes filled with a smile, and asked, "Have you bought tickets?"

Chen Jingle said, "My sister bought it. What about you?"

"I've bought mine too," she said, waving her phone to indicate.

Chen Jingle nodded: "Then let's go."

"Good~"

Li Shiming squatted down, picked up Changmao, and took the leash from Chen Jingle.

Go get your tickets first, then have them checked before entering.

Despite Jiangbei being just a fifth-tier city, the aquarium gets quite a few visitors on weekends.

It might be related to the fact that there really aren't many places to go in Jiangbei.

To outsiders, their combination looked like a family of three going on a weekend trip; the man was handsome, the woman was beautiful, and the child was adorable.

What an amazing family!

The key is that she still looks incredibly young after giving birth.

Looking at her own husband, wife, and children, she could only say they barely resembled human beings.

Can't compare, can't compare.

……

The first marine creature you see after entering the aquarium is a sea turtle.

It's quite large.

There were also many colorful tropical ornamental fish nearby. Lin Yuqing's eyes widened, and she pointed with her little hand: "It's a turtle!"

She had only seen them in books and on television before, and now that she saw them in person, they were much bigger than she had imagined.

Chen Jingle laughed and said, "To be precise, it's a sea turtle, which lives in the ocean and is a bit different from ordinary freshwater turtles."

He quietly explained to Lin Yuqing the differences between the two, as well as the different types and habits of sea turtles.

Don't be fooled by the fact that kids seem to know nothing; they're actually quite smart. Their new brains work much better than their old ones, so whenever they have the chance, they try to share as much scientific knowledge or common sense as possible, and the kids might just remember it.

Li Shiming watched with a smile from the side.

She admires Chen Jingle's patience and ability to guide and teach children, as this reveals a person's character and temperament.

As for the long-haired creature in her arms, it stared wide-eyed at its surroundings, overwhelmed by the sheer volume of pheromones its brain couldn't process.

The sea turtles swam around happily in the water, and when they saw children lying on the glass, they would swim over from the side and expose their bellies.

"Yeah~"

Lin Yuqing's eyes widened. So that's what a sea turtle's belly looks like. She'll definitely tell her mother when she gets back.

For some reason, Chen Jingle suddenly remembered the talking sea turtle and the lecherous old man carrying the turtle shell.

After watching the sea turtles for a while and taking some simple photos, the three continued walking.

We arrived at the Beluga Whale Stadium.

The beluga whale is in a separate pool, and there's only one, but it's very popular with children.

Because beluga whales have a relatively high intelligence among marine animals, roughly equivalent to the level of a human child aged 3-8, they like to play with children.

Chen Jingle held Lin Yuqing in front of the large glass window, and the beluga whale would come over and roll around and blow bubbles, making the child very happy.

Further in is the shark tank, which contains quite a few sharks swimming back and forth in the water. Even through the glass, you can feel the ferocity of these marine creatures.

Its enormous size, coupled with its sharp and terrifying teeth, creates an overwhelming sense of oppression.

Lin Yuqing's eyes widened, a mixture of curiosity and fear. When she saw the shark swimming towards her, she instinctively hid in Chen Jingle's arms.

That's considered good; some timid children nearby were so frightened they cried.

Li Shiming was also a little nervous and subconsciously leaned towards Chen Jingle. The natural oxygen bar scent emanating from him made her feel much more at ease.

There is also a very large pool containing all kinds of marine fish, including manta rays.

Then there's the mermaid show, which attracts the most viewers.

Many mermaid costume actors have become internet sensations in the past, prompting aquariums across the country to follow suit, including those in Jiangbei.

Amazingly, they were able to stay underwater for several minutes without any diving equipment and even interact with the audience.

Chen Jingle watched with great interest.

According to his observation, mermaids can stay in the water for more than two minutes without performing any large movements.

If it's a performance, a set of movements lasts about 40-50 seconds, and then the performer will float up to breathe, instead of staying in the water the whole time.

After looking at it for a while, I actually started to feel a little itchy to try it out.

It's not that I want to go in and perform, but I admire their swimming skills.

In fact, Chen Jingle is a landlubber and can't even learn to doggy paddle. Moreover, because his optic nerve endings are too sensitive, he can't open his eyes in the water like others.

Fortunately, he can now make himself a water-repelling talisman, so he can walk directly in the water without worrying about getting his clothes wet.

……

Seeing that he was staring intently at the mermaid, Li Shiming asked, "Is it pretty?"

Aside from being fresh, it seems to be just so-so.

Chen Jingle didn't answer directly, but instead asked Lin Yuqing, "What does Yuqing think?"

"nice!"

Lin Yuqing answered loudly.

Chen Jingle laughed and said, "I was curious about how long the mermaid performers could stay in the water and how long a set of movements took, so I observed for a while and felt that they were quite impressive."

Li Shiming was somewhat surprised: "Do you have a timer?"

Chen Jingle nodded: "Currently, it usually takes about 40 to 50 seconds to complete a set of movements, and then they float up to breathe. If they're not performing, they can stay up for about two minutes."

Li Shiming blinked. She had originally thought Chen Jingle was looking at the beautiful woman's figure, but now it seemed that she had been judging him by her own petty standards.

Seeing that Chen Jingle's eyes were clear and his expression seemed genuine, she felt secretly ashamed.

Chen Jingle glanced at Li Shiming's face out of the corner of his eye and smiled slightly.

Watching a mermaid show is just for fun. As for how beautiful it is, after the internet revolution, everyone's standards and requirements for beauty have risen a lot.

Actually, when a mermaid looks out of the glass from underwater, she can't see clearly; it's about the same as having 1000 degrees of myopia plus 800 degrees of astigmatism.

If you want to interact with the mermaid, you have to get close to the glass and make dynamic movements so that she will notice you.

Seeing Lin Yuqing's curiosity, Chen Jingle lifted her up to the glass wall for a closer look, and the mermaid lady even blew her a kiss.

I'm finally satisfied.

Let's go to the next venue!

After Chen Jingle asked Li Shiming and confirmed that she had no objections, the three of them and the cat continued walking inside.

Further inside is the jellyfish wall, filled with all sorts of colorful jellyfish, attracting many people to take photos and check in.

In fact, most jellyfish are poisonous. If you encounter them while swimming at the beach, it is best not to touch them. Do not poke them with your hands just because they look pretty, as you may get stung and experience adverse reactions such as allergies, burning, or severe pain.

Finally, there was the seal show.

Everyone says to refuse animal performances, but the animals themselves want to perform! Look at these seals, they're having more fun than their keepers, and they can get food just by balancing a ball on their heads.

Is there an easier job than this?

They have official government jobs!

He really didn't want to head the ball, so he just lay there patting his belly, which still made the spectators laugh non-stop.

Li Shiming was engrossed in the book when she suddenly felt her phone vibrate in her bag. She took it out and saw that it was her mother calling.

Surprised, I quickly answered the call.

"Hey, Mom, what's wrong?"
