Tiger, I rejected the iron rice bowl.

Tang Li was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Wang Yuyu was talking about. Helplessly, she gently tugged at the leash: "Alright, don't be angry. We're about to enter the village. No more yelling."

"The villagers are all afraid of you. It would be bad if you frightened the elderly and children."

Wang Yuyu was filled with resentment, yet dared not disobey Tang Li. He could only sob softly, secretly vowing, "Hmph, once I'm healed, I'll settle the score with you!"

"Even if you didn't set this trap, you can't escape responsibility!"

"To allow bad guys to pull off such dirty tricks right under our noses—that's a serious dereliction of duty!"

"Just you wait!"

Seeing that he was still muttering under his breath, looking like he wouldn't give up, Tang Li simply stepped forward, reached out and pinched his mouth shut, forcing him to shut up, and deliberately said with a stern face, "Alright, stop making noise! ​​Come into the village quietly with me, no shooting, understand?"

Wang Yuyu, whose mouth was being pinched, glared with her large amber eyes, full of anger. She struggled to break free from Tang Li's grasp, but also obediently kept quiet. Her tail was still sulking as she followed Tang Li obediently.

Upon entering the village, the villagers in the houses on both sides of the road hid behind doors and through window cracks, peeking out furtively with curiosity and nervousness in their eyes.

"My God, this tiger is huge! It's even bigger than the ones I've seen on TV!"

"That tiger's eyes are fierce. Could it be holding a grudge against us for being injured in the back mountains and is taking it out on us?"

"You never know! This is a wild Siberian tiger, it's very wild!"

"Probably not? Look how well-behaved it is with that little girl, it doesn't even dare to bark loudly, so it probably won't bite people randomly."

"..."

The villagers were in an uproar in the chat group, their words filled with unease.

When everyone saw Wang Yuyu's enormous size, they were terrified, fearing that this injured tiger would bring trouble to the village!

Tang Li was completely unaware of the villagers' commotion. The man and the tiger slowly walked through the village and stopped next to the animal transport vehicle that was already waiting at the village entrance.

She carefully helped Wang Yuyu into the car, then climbed in herself, signaled the driver to start, and sped off towards the zoo.

A few hours later, the car slowly drove into the zoo, where night had already fallen.

The group had been waiting for a long time. When they saw the car lights coming on in the distance, they immediately ran out of the veterinary room, their expressions full of urgency.

Tang Li was the first to open the car door and immediately saw a group of people surrounding the car.

The shadow of being trapped at the bottom of the pit had not yet dissipated when Wang Yuyu suddenly became restless, letting out a low warning sound in his throat, his massive body twisting uneasily in the carriage.

Tang Li quickly turned around and hugged his neck, pressing down hard on his agitated head, and shouted loudly outside, "Don't come any closer! Stay away! Don't provoke him!"

"Roar!" Wang Yu looked at the crowd that was gathering around him, a cold glint of vigilance flashing in his eyes. Even though Tang Li was suppressing him tightly, he still managed to break free, raise his head, and let out a deafening roar at the crowd, which was extremely intimidating.

The crowd instantly stirred, retreating and not daring to move forward.

Seeing this, Wang Weiguo immediately stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, get out of here! Except for Dr. Cheng, everyone else, leave this place!"

His tone was authoritative, carrying the aura of someone who had managed the zoo for many years. No one dared to disobey him, and they immediately dispersed, running to the high places on nearby buildings to peer out from afar.

Once only Wang Weiguo and Cheng Yongnian remained around, Tang Li released her grip on Hu Tou's head, gently scratched Wang Yuyu's chin, and softly comforted her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here, no one dares to hurt you."

"It's safe now, shall we go down for a check-up?"

"It's completely dark now. Let's rest after we're done checking. I'll prepare something delicious for you."

Wang Yuyu's tense body gradually relaxed, and she stuck out her tongue to gently lick Tang Li's cheek, letting out a low whimper as if she had agreed.

Tang Li breathed a sigh of relief and slowly led him off the train.

As soon as it landed, Wang Yuyu keenly spotted Wang Weiguo and Cheng Yongnian standing to the side. It immediately shrank behind Tang Li, only peeking out half of its head. Its amber eyes were fixed on the two of them, and it would occasionally bare its sharp fangs and let out a threatening growl from its throat.

"Stop messing around, they're here to help you."

Tang Li gently patted his back and patiently explained, "That's Dr. Cheng, who specializes in treating animal injuries. Don't you want to get better quickly? You need to have him examine you."

Wang Yu looked up at Tang Li, whose eyes were full of gentle smiles, without a trace of malice.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he ultimately chose to trust Tang Li. The low growl in his throat gradually subsided, but he still clung tightly to Tang Li, not daring to let his guard down.

Seeing that he had calmed down, Wang Weiguo and Cheng Yongnian both secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Cheng Yongnian's gaze fell on Wang Yuyu's slightly curled right hind leg, which had landed abnormally. He immediately said to Tang Li, "Tang Li, quickly bring Tie Fanwan inside for a checkup. The external injury is fine, but I'm afraid there might be hidden injuries to the joints or bones. The longer it's left untreated, the harder it will be to recover."

"Okay." Tang Li nodded and led Wang Yuyu toward the veterinary room.

Wang Yuyu stayed close to her legs the whole time, and whenever Wang Weiguo or Cheng Yongnian took even half a step closer, he would immediately turn his head and bare his teeth in a warning.

Their wary demeanor left the two of them both amused and exasperated, so they could only slow down and follow at a distance.

Stepping inside, the room was filled with various veterinary medical equipment, including X-ray machines, stethoscopes, sterilization instruments, and so on, all neatly arranged.

Tang Li turned to Cheng Yongnian: "Dr. Cheng, what should we do next?"

Wang Yuyu also looked around curiously, but when her gaze swept over the veterinary syringe in the cabinet, the tiger froze instantly.

Those syringes were thicker and larger than any needle he had ever seen, and fear instantly enveloped him.

He suddenly shoved next to Tang Li, so forcefully that he almost knocked her off her feet.

Tang Li staggered back a step before regaining her balance, frowning as she lightly patted his head: "A secure job, what are you doing? You scared me!"

But Wang Yuyu completely ignored her reproach, her eyes fixed on the syringes, her body pressed against Tang Li's, as if she wanted to crawl between her legs and hide.

Tang Li followed his gaze and immediately spotted the syringes that terrified him. She couldn't help but chuckle, "Hahaha...you really are afraid of needles!"

"You're such a coward! Where did all that bravado go when you were yelling at so many people?"

She bent down and gently stroked his tiger fur to soothe him: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I promise you, I won't give you a shot, don't be afraid!"

"Can I ask them to take these things out?"

"Really?" Wang Yu immediately looked up, her amber eyes filled with urgency. She nodded vigorously, urging in her mind, "Hurry, hurry! Get those junk things away quickly, they're so annoying to look at!"
