I Unlocked Beast Language and Became a Bigshot After My Rebirth!-Chapter 15

A Pay Raise

Xia Xin’s decision to adopt a stray dog did not surprise Gu Fan and Xia Song because Xia Xin had always loved animals since she was young. She would often go and feed the stray cats and dogs in the neighborhood.

Due to Old Mrs. Xia’s poor health and mild asthma symptoms, the Xias could not keep pets. Now that Xia Xin lived alone, it was not a problem for her to have a dog.

Gu Fan was quite happy and said with a smile, “You’ve always envied others who could have cats and dogs. Now you can have your own dog. Dogs are great; if there are bad people who want to harm you, the dog can protect you.”

“Alright, let’s talk more when Xin has her day off. She had a busy day, so let’s not disturb her rest.” Xia Song urged Gu Fan to hang up the phone.

After the video call, Xia Xin prepared for bed. Before falling asleep, she saw that the data panel of the system had been updated after closing her eyes.

Today, Xia Xin had accumulated 400 animal affinity points and her human affinity points had increased to 4000.

Xia Xin speculated that the reason her human affinity points had not decreased but instead increased might be due to the continued public opinion of her. More and more people had seen the videos of her interacting with the pandas and developed a favorable impression of her.

After hesitating for a moment, Xia Xin tried to “inquire” with her consciousness, “Can I know where these 400 animal affinity points come from?”

After two seconds of silence, a light screen panel popped up. Behind the photos of Pipi and Dodo, it showed “+100” and behind the photo of Layle, it showed “+300”.

Today, Xia Xin had taken care of Pipi and Dodo, soothing their emotions. The two pandas had become more familiar and reliant on her, so it was not surprising that their affinity points had increased. However, what Xia Xin did not expect was that Layle had instantly given her a 300-point increase, which was more than Pipi and Dodo combined.

‘Perhaps it was because Layle genuinely liked me…’ Xia Xin thought as she looked at Layle, who was peacefully sleeping in the box, and a gentle smile formed on her lips.

Xia Xin allocated all 400 affinity points to her Stamina. Currently, her Stamina has reached 71 points.

After the Stamina points were updated, Xia Xin clearly felt her tired body instantly becoming energized. It even gave her a feeling that she could do a hundred push-ups right now. She adjusted to the changes in her body, regulated her breathing, and quickly fell asleep.

The next day, when Xia Xin arrived at the zoo, she saw Lu Yuan standing at the entrance of the panda house, seemingly waiting for her.

Xia Xin immediately called out, “Good morning, Mr. Lu!”

Before Xia Xin started working at the zoo, it was normal for her to call Lu Yuan “Uncle Lu”. Now that she had joined the team, their relationship had become that of superior and subordinate.

Lu Yuan smiled and nodded. “I didn’t expect that you would become a star caretaker in our zoo just two days after joining. The number of visitors to the zoo has increased a lot these days, and it’s all thanks to you. I have already spoken to the finance department, and you will receive a pay raise.”

Xia Xin was somewhat surprised, but of course, she would not refuse the boss giving her a raise. She felt happy inside but still honestly said, “I just did what I should do.”

Lu Yuan was very satisfied with Xia Xin’s attitude. Originally, he only brought Xia Xin in due to Xia Song’s face, and he did not have any expectations for her.

But to Lu Yuan’s surprise, even Li Li praised Xia Xin for quickly adapting to the work environment. Both the pandas and the visitors really liked her.

After seeing Lu Yuan off, Xia Xin cleaned the panda house and also had to tidy up the outdoor area. As she cleaned the outdoor area, the visitors had already entered the zoo, and there were crowds of people by the railings.

While Xia Xin was sweeping the ground with a big broom, Pipi and Dodo saw her and immediately ran over to play with her. One hugged her leg, and the other sat on the broom.

Xia Xin could not help but cry and laugh. She had to put down the broom, pick up Pipi, and place it on a nearby climbing frame, patting its large panda head to indicate that it should play by itself. Then she found a large bamboo basket and stuffed Dodo inside.

Dodo did not like playing on the climbing frame, but enjoyed crawling into various cages and holes. A few days ago, Xia Xin saw a panda climbing into a bamboo basket in the next-door enclosure, which gave her inspiration, so she immediately borrowed one.

‘Sometimes the passive function of this Beast Language System is quite troublesome. These two pandas I’m raising were too clingy! As soon as I appeared, they would immediately stick to me like magnets to iron.’ Xia Xin complained in her heart.
