章節 11: Chapter 577: Approaching May 20
Time flows on, and the construction work at the zoo continues methodically!
Fang Ye plans to introduce gibbons and, after inquiring among his contacts in the zoo community, hears that Feiyun Zoo has an extra pair of male White-browed Gibbon brothers available for transfer.
Although he preferred a male and female pair, White-browed Gibbons are quite rare in domestic zoos, and those capable of pairing had already done so. Having only males was not ideal, but he thought that perhaps a female could be found for them in the future.
Recently, he further refined the design of the gibbon exhibit, adding not only natural trees but also aerial corridors such as ropes and wooden ladders mimicking vines to connect the habitat trees in the area. This way, gibbons could move throughout the entire pavilion without touching the ground.
Initially, he thought a 4-meter wide water barrier would suffice. However, gibbons have strong swinging abilities and are lively by nature, unlike the more subdued Golden Monkeys. A narrow moat might tempt them to swing out of the enclosure.
They can leap 7.62 meters in one go among trees, so the moat needs to be wider than 7.62 meters—the wider, the better.
Vegetation on the visitor's side should not extend into the ditch as it reduces the gibbons' jumping distance.
If they jump across, it's not a big issue since gibbons are not dangerous predators and pose little threat to visitors. However, if they don't make it and fall into the water, drowning could be a concern.
Shelters and shading spots should be distributed throughout the exhibit, providing more options for the gibbons.
Gibbons can coexist with other animals, including orangutans, leaf monkeys, small-clawed otters, tapirs, and mouse deer, in a friendly manner.
Since only two gibbons are planned for introduction and the exhibit is so large, it'd be wasteful not to make full use of the space.
As gibbons use the upper space of perches, other animals could utilize the lower space and water areas.
Adding a few leaf monkeys, raising some mouse deer on land, and keeping some Asian small-clawed otters in the water would make the exhibit livelier.
...
As May 20th approaches, the zoo's WeChat public account released a notice three days in advance.
"Counting down on fingers, May 20th is almost here. Did you almost forget this sweet day?
If you're only remembering now, frantically planning to pick a lipstick or buy a bag, it's already too late! What to do?
Don't panic! Let me tell you how to prepare for 520 urgently!
Real romance doesn't need anything fancy. Just the day before May 20th, show the reserved zoo tickets and say "Let's walk around the zoo!" to them.
Hand in hand, stroll around the zoo, visit the adorable capybaras and monkeys, chatting and laughing along the way. That's romance!
From what I've observed, couples visiting the zoo have their sweetness index increase by at least 5 percentage points, and the success rate of confessions also jumps!
Let me teach you a few cheesy pick-up lines. Though a bit corny, combined with adorable animals, they might make your partner smile~

There are so many Asian elephants in the zoo, but you're the only one for me.

Though my body is armored, since being with you, I've acquired a soft spot…
…
Besides visiting animals on May 20th, we've prepared various exciting activities for everyone!"
The May 20th events at the zoo, besides discount tickets, include a two-person three-legged race among couples, competing in groups for a honey lemon tea coupon redeemable at the beverage stand, and promotional offers for the opening of the hot spring resort, among others.
Once the article was published, netizens began leaving lively comments!
"Ha, those pick-up lines are cheesy enough! I'll see how they work!"
"Wow, the hot spring resort is open! It must be so cozy to soak in."
"Shocked, there's a hot spring in the zoo? How did I not know?"
"I saw the director mention it in a live stream; it's next to the snow monkey area by the cherry blossom forest. The environment is outstanding! Though now the cherry blossoms are almost gone, it would've been great if it had opened earlier."
"I didn't catch much, but I remember the honey lemon tea! Looks so delicious!"
Response: "Haha, this is a new product from our zoo. Want a free taste? Then, why not come play at our zoo?"
"Protest, why is there only one cup of lemon tea! Is this your zoo's way of promoting lemon tea? /dog head"
Response: "One cup, but we'll provide two straws, isn't it sweeter to share?"
"What about those without a partner? Can your zoo provide one? /melon eater"
Response: "Then, you should visit the zoo for a romantic encounter! Who knows, you might find a match?"
Yan Ganghui, seeing the hot spring bath's environment and checking his phone's calendar, made a resolution.
Not working on May 20th!
Taking a day off to relax at the zoo with his girlfriend.
They could arrive at the zoo the night before and stay at the hot spring resort.
Zhou Ke, Yan Ganghui's former colleague, often shared his daily life at the zoo on social media - cute animals, good cafeteria food, praising the delicious vegetables grown by the director, and morning exercises.
He looked healthier and no longer wore hats in photos!
Before, Yan Ganghui and other colleagues would discuss which shampoos to use or which hair transplant facility was better, considering a transplant.
Now, Zhou Ke's bald patches are barely noticeable, while Yan Ganghui's hair is thinning towards baldness.
Envious, indeed.
Facing the mirror, looking at his thinning hair, he wondered, is this the price of becoming stronger?
Recently, Zhou Ke shared another post about a barbecue and hot springs experience.
"The zoo's hot spring resort is amazing. The director is generous!"
Yan Ganghui initially thought Zhou Ke was traveling, living a great life. Realizing it was at the zoo, he became interested and inquired further. One must enjoy life when they can afford it!
Zhou Ke strongly recommended trying the hot springs, claiming they were beneficial for hair growth. After soaking, he felt his hair was even fuller.
Yan Ganghui scoffed at his exaggerations.
Despite skepticism, he secretly followed the zoo's public account, eagerly awaiting the resort's opening.
After reading the article, he rushed to book a room at the hot spring resort.
