I have a wildlife zoo-Chapter 444 The Parrot’s Unsophisticated Love Words
The black business van headed towards the zoo, with team leader Ran Qingqing sitting in the front, holding a selfie stick in her hand.
Sitting behind were Yang Xiaochao, Shi Xi, and others.
"Oh oh oh~ we're off! Off to the zoo to have fun!"
The Sparkling Girls cheerfully shouted while waving at the camera with poses.

They then started chatting.
Shi Xi looked quite excited, "Last time we came here to film the MV, there were no giant pandas in the zoo! This time we'll get to see the pandas; I always made sure to see them when I visited the zoo as a kid."
"The panda exhibit at Linhai Zoo is super cool! It's shaped like a Tai Chi pattern."
Yang Xiaochao lazily leaned back in his seat, "What do you say we eat for lunch?"
Ran Qingqing couldn't help but tease, "You're such a foodie! You're already thinking about what to eat before we've even arrived."
Shi Xi said, "Oh right, I heard we can also see baby lions."
"Eh?" Everyone turned their heads in surprise, "Baby lions?"
"Yeah, I heard the lion cubs have also been put on display these past few days!"
"Little lions must be so much fun!"
"So looking forward to it~"
By the time the business van arrived at the zoo, Yang Xiaochao had fallen into a bit of a daze.
Hopping out of the van, he stretched and flexed his arms.
The others also rubbed their eyes as they got out of the vehicle.
A fresh and cool breeze greeted them, instantly reviving their spirits.
Yang Xiaochao lifted his selfie stick and, holding hands with Shi Xi, happily hopped and skipped their way into the zoo.
After all, since they were shooting a group variety show, they had to put on a performance and show how happy they were!
Of course, their happiness was genuine; they had always wanted to come back to the zoo when they had some free time, and to their surprise, the show team had made arrangements for this trip.
At the zoo's entrance, there were a few fans waiting like cats on a hot tin roof, waving enthusiastically at them!
The Sparkling Girls responded with polite smiles and waves.
Some of the regular visitors nearby, witnessing this scene, looked on curiously.
After entering the zoo, Ran Qingqing looked back and suggested, "Hey, where should we go first? See the pandas or the macaws?"
Yang Xiaochao quickly raised his hand, "Macaws!"
Shi Xi, not to be outdone, "Pandas!"
"Hmm~"
The two locked eyes, neither willing to back down.
Suddenly, in a moment of synchronicity, they both took a step back, extended their arms, and got ready to settle the dispute with rock-paper-scissors!
Just then, a staff member approached, "Your next stop is the souvenir shop, to pick up the cards for the following activities' route!"
The show team was really considerate!
They had arranged for the souvenir shop to get some camera time right at the start.
Yang Xiaochao widened his eyes, "Is this us doing a promotional spot for the shop?"
The staff member felt a bit awkward; that was the reason, but you're so blunt about it, why did you have to say it out loud?
Pretending not to have heard, he left the scene.
Yang Xiaochao remained persistent, "Hey hey, if we're helping with publicity, shouldn't we get some sort of reward? Can you talk to the director and let us have a meal at the Lion Restaurant?"
Shi Xi stepped back two paces, looking embarrassed by association, while Ran Qingqing also covered her forehead and teased, "Are you still thinking about eating!"
Yang Xiaochao retorted confidently, "Because it's really delicious!"
Shi Xi exclaimed, "Come on, let's go, don't embarrass us! I'll treat you to some snacks we find along the way."
Yang Xiaochao fist-pumped, excited, "Deal, let's go!"
Under her lead, the girls started running with a skip in their step, quickly arriving at the souvenir shop!
"Wow!"
As they stepped in, the girls unanimously gasped in astonishment, turning their heads to gaze at the dazzling array of products all around!
Recently, Linhai Zoo's souvenir shop's offerings had grown significantly in variety. A multitiered, cake-like display at the entrance was stacked layer by layer with many adorable animal head pillows.
Shi Xi's eyes sparkled with delight as she picked up a cartoon panda with big eyes, "Wow, so cute!"
Ran Qingqing patted the head pillow, saying, "It's quite soft!"
She hugged it and posed with it for the camera.
Shi Xi then picked up one shaped like a red panda, squeezing its ears. Holding two head pillows, she found each one incredibly cute.
Reluctantly putting them down, she thought to herself, "I'll buy them all after filming today's show."
Ran Qingqing and Yang Xiaochao moved on to a rack hanging with many animal-themed hairbands!
Compared to ordinary hairbands, these had an addition of animal ears on top.
Though slightly different from actual animal ears, they were chiefly designed to reflect the animals' characteristics.
For instance, tiger ears often have a conspicuous white spot behind them, believed to help cubs follow their mother without getting lost.
The hairbands lacked this, featuring stripes on yellow plush that actually resembled their fur, but better represented the tiger's features.
Ran Qingqing picked up a leopard-spotted hairband and tried it on, "I like this one!"
Yang Xiaochao chose a White Tiger hairband and, making a claw gesture, chuckled, "I am a tiger!"
Shi Xi put on a fiery red fox hairband, "This is so pretty!"
Ran Qingqing didn't forget their primary task, "By the way, where's the card with the tour route?"
After looking around, they saw part of a brochure sticking out from beneath the plushie's rear.
It clearly didn't match the style of the other souvenirs at Linhai Zoo.
"Oh, I found it!"
She pulled out a card that had the visiting route written on it, and the group gathered to take a look. The first stop was the Bird Pavilion.
...
They hopped and skipped their way to the Bird Pavilion.
The rainforest plants inside the pavilion were still as lush as ever, oozing with vibrant life and greenery!
It gave off a sensation of healthy vigour.
"Squawk! Squawk!"
"Chirp! Chirp!"
Listening to the pleasant singing of the birds and watching various brightly feathered birds flit through the trees, Ran Qingqing couldn't help exclaiming, "It's so beautiful, like a fairyland on earth! I wish I could stay here forever."
Yang Xiaochao pointed at a bird with pure white feathers and silky head plumes, "That bird has such a cool look!"
Shi Xi said, "I remember it's called the Bali myna!"
They continued to admire the birds, walking and stopping in turns.
Brilliant golden sunshine filtered through the gaps in the tree leaves, and every now and then birds chased and frolicked past, their gorgeous plumage reflecting dazzling colors.
"So beautiful!"
"It's so amazing!"
Everyone expressed their amazement simultaneously, and suddenly, Yang Xiaochao spotted a familiar figure on a tree ahead, excitement bubbling up, "Hey, hey! Macaws!"
Two red-and-green macaws were snuggling affectionately on a tree branch!
It was Jinzhi and Jingwen.
Jinzhi nuzzled Jingwen's beak gently, whispering softly, "Baby, I'm off to get an IV."
Jingwen pecked Jinzhi's beak in response, asking, "An IV of what?"
"Miss-you-fluid."
The girls were stunned, their eyes nearly popping out!
"The parrots have become spirits!"
