Tiger, I rejected the iron rice bowl.

"Don't worry so much, it's not that serious."

Cheng Yongnian smiled and waved his hand, "Both of his fractures are minor and have not shifted. As long as they are properly immobilized and carefully cared for, I guarantee I can heal him completely, and it won't affect his ability to jump around in the future."

Tang Li finally felt a little relieved and forced a smile: "Dr. Cheng, I'm counting on you for everything. You must get that 'iron rice bowl' job back!"

"Don't worry, it's nothing!"

Cheng Yongnian patted his chest and pushed the stretcher to do other examinations to ensure there were no other hidden internal injuries.

Not long after, the full set of examinations was completed. Apart from the fractures in both hind legs, there were only a few minor abrasions on his body.

Cheng Yongnian took out medical tools and prepared to bandage and stabilize Wang Yuyu's wound.

Tang Li frowned instantly as she looked at the buzzing clippers, and hesitantly grabbed Cheng Yongnian's hand: "Dr. Cheng, is it really necessary to shave?"

Cheng Yongnian stopped what he was doing and looked up at her with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Tang Li pouted, her tone full of disdain: "Tigers look so ugly after shaving their fur, they're bald and not good-looking at all."

In her eyes, Wang Yuyu should be a majestic figure with fluffy hair all over his body.

"Hahaha..." Cheng Yongnian was amused by her and patiently explained, "Don't worry, I'll only shave a small area around the wound. I'll wrap the shaved area with a bandage later, and you won't be able to see it."

As he spoke, he swiftly and precisely shaved the hair off the wound on Wang Yuyu's right hind leg. He explained as he shaved, "Besides, you can't leave it unshaved. If the hair gets stuck between the splint and the skin, it can easily cause redness and inflammation over time. That will make things even more uncomfortable for you, and you might even scratch it, reopening the wound and worsening the injury!"

After shaving the fur, Cheng Yongnian held the wound up to Tang Li's face: "Look, it's just a small patch. Once the splint and bandages are put on, you won't be able to see it at all. Our Iron Rice Bowl is still the most handsome tiger!"

The exposed tiger flesh was pink and tender, with black stripes on it. Tang Li curiously reached out and touched it. It felt hard yet soft, and warm to the touch.

Her eyes lit up, and she immediately took out her phone: "Dr. Cheng, wait a moment, I'll take a few photos to remember this moment."

"Go ahead and take pictures." Cheng Yongnian shook his head helplessly and amusedly. "Once his hair grows back, you won't see him like this anymore."

Tang Li took several photos of the wound before finally putting her phone away, satisfied.

Cheng Yongnian immediately disinfected the wound, then precisely placed the splint on it and wrapped it tightly with bandages to ensure that it provided just the right amount of support without making Wang Yuyu uncomfortable.

Since the injury to his left hind leg was relatively minor, Cheng Yongnian did not use a splint, but simply disinfected the area and bandaged it.

"The left hind leg doesn't need a splint, firstly because the injury isn't serious, and secondly because leaving the leg intact allows him to move around a little."

As Cheng Yongnian packed up his tools, he explained, "If both of his legs were immobilized, he would be lying down, and given his personality, he would definitely cause a huge commotion."

After treating the wound, while Wang Yuyu was still asleep, the two found warm water and a towel and carefully wiped his body, cleaning away the remaining mud, snow and dirt, and disinfecting and treating the small scratches hidden in his hair.

After everything was ready, the two pushed Wang Yuyu into a specially prepared monitoring room, where she would be observed overnight.

If there are no abnormalities, we will move him to the back gate of the zoo tomorrow so he can recover slowly.

Just a few minutes after Wang Yuyu was wheeled into the intensive care unit, he slowly woke up.

In fact, the anesthesia effect is not long, and the whole treatment takes only about forty minutes, less than an hour.

He groggily opened his eyes, and as soon as his vision focused, he saw Tang Li and Cheng Yongnian standing in front of him. He was instantly awake, his ears snapped to the floor, his muscles tensed, and he growled at Cheng Yongnian in a low voice, his eyes full of vigilance.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Yongnian immediately took two steps back, smiled, and waved his hand: "Looks like you're in good spirits, even able to grin at me. I'll go rest now, call me if you need anything."

He had long since figured out this tiger's temperament, and he was only afraid of Tang Li.

"Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Cheng!" Tang Li smiled at him, her voice full of gratitude.

Cheng Yongnian turned around, waved, and gently closed the door before leaving.

As soon as the door closed, Wang Yuyu immediately suppressed her fierce demeanor, obediently quieted down, and turned her head to look at her two hind legs.

Seeing that his legs were wrapped in clean white bandages and had a faint medicinal smell, he curiously raised his front paw, wanting to go over and touch them.

But in Tang Li's eyes, his action was seen as a mischievous attempt to remove the bandages.

Tang Li immediately grabbed his hand, her tone stern: "Don't touch it! This is for bandaging your wound; it'll help you heal faster. If you take it off, all the progress will be wasted!"

Wang Yuyu gave an impatient snort and rolled her eyes, thinking to herself, "I know, do you have to say anything? I was just touching it, so what?"

"Bang!" Tang Li wasn't having any of it. She raised her hand and gave him a sharp rap on the head, the sound of the blow making a soft noise.

Wang Yuyu's large, amber eyes widened suddenly, filled with anger and grievance. She bared her fangs slightly and growled softly, but didn't dare to actually move: "Try hitting my head again! Believe me, I'll bite you!"

"What are you looking at?" Tang Li raised her head, a mischievous smile playing on her lips. "Let me tell you, Dr. Cheng said your leg injury will take at least two or three months to heal, and during that time you'll be under my care."

"If you dare to upset me, I won't give you any meat, and you'll have to eat vegetables every day!"

Wang Yuyu froze on the spot, her eyes wide open, her mind exploding with joy: "This...this is the government-affiliated life I've always dreamed of!"

"They just came all of a sudden?"

"I thought that after they applied the medicine and bandaged me up, they would send me back to the mountains..."

"Is this a dream?"

Seeing his stunned and incredulous expression, Tang Li chuckled, reached out and ruffled his tiger-like head, teasingly saying, "What's wrong? Weren't you always hoping to be adopted by our zoo? Now that your dream has come true, you're making this face?"

"Hahaha! I've been kept by a sugar daddy!"

Wang Yuyu instantly realized what was happening, grinned widely, stuck out her tongue, and happily shook her head in place, "Finally, I don't have to work myself to death hunting anymore, that's great!"

Tang Li looked at his smug and lewd appearance, shook her head helplessly, stood up and dusted herself off: "Alright, you're awake now, I should go back to sleep."

"I've been busy all day for you, I'm exhausted."

"You're leaving? No way!"

Wang Yu panicked immediately, rushing forward and grabbing Tang Li's leg tightly with her front paws. Her head gently nuzzled against Tang Li's trouser leg, her amber eyes filled with a pitiful look. "What will I do if you leave?"

"There's not even a place to use the restroom here. What am I supposed to do if I need to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night?"

"And what about Dr. Cheng? What if he sneaks in at night?"

"You have to stay with me, I'm scared to be alone!"
