“Don’t worry, Jing Mo. Everything will be alright,” Xia Xin assured Jing MO, her voice tinged with a soft warmth.

As she spoke, her fingers gently caressed the wolf pup nestled in her arms. “I should let you go back to your family now,” she whispered to it.

“No!” The wolf pup’s refusal was resolute, its tiny paws clutching desperately at Xia Xin’s clothing as it looked up at her with a face full of anguish.

Unable to hold back a smile, Xia Xin asked, “Don’t you want to return to your parents?”

The wolf pup shook its head vigorously. [Anww, that pup is too adorable! I want one just like it!] [Why doesn’t Xia Xin adopt it? It’s so cute.]

[This live stream is so uplifting. It’s an instant mood booster.]

[Crowdfund the wolf pup!]

Unaware of the animated conversation taking place among her viewers, Xia Xin was preoccupied with prying the wolf pup’s paws off her clothes. But the wolf pup was unyielding, leaving her feeling somewhat exasperated. “What exactly do you want?” Xia Xin finally voiced her perplexity to the wolf pup.

Holding onto her clothing, the wolf pup said, “Being close to you feels so comforting, and I can eat my fill here. I like it.”

“You can’t get enough food at home?” Xia Xin queried, her eyes narrowing.

“Yup…” The wolf pup hesitated, feeling somewhat guilty but nevertheless forced itself to admit that it couldn’t get enough to eat at home.

Skeptically, Xia Xin’s gaze shifted to the alpha wolf. To her surprise, the regal creature lay there with its eyes partially closed, resting on its front paws as if disinterested in vindicating itself.

[The alpha wolf seems incredibly sentient.]

[I don’t know why, but I sense a message in the alpha wolf’s gaze, saying, “It’s up to you, humans.”]

[Same here.]

Just as Xia Xin reached out to touch the alpha wolf, intending to communicate with it, a loud crash broke the silence. Turning around, she found the cameraman hanging upside down, his camera shattered on the ground. Heart pounding, Xia Xin hurried over to assess the situation. Finding no immediate danger, she and Jing MO lowered the hapless cameraman back to the ground.

“Why would there be a trap here? That was terrifying!” The cameraman was visibly shaken. “What would’ve happened if something had gone wrong?”

Frowning, Xia Xin acknowledged that it did indeed seem like a trap for capturing prey. She wondered, ‘Could someone be living in these mountains?’

“I have to report this to the director since the camera is broken. Let’s go back,” suggested the cameraman.

Shaking her head, Xia Xin said, “I have something else to attend to. You go on ahead.” Then Xia Xin turned to Jing Mo. “What about you, Jing MO? Will you stay with me?”

“Of course, I’ll stay with you,” Jing MO affirmed, adamant that he wouldn’t leave her alone to face potential danger.

“You two are not leaving?” The cameraman was astonished. Typically, artists wouldn’t opt to stay behind in circumstances like this.

“We have this, so it’s fine,” Xia Xin said, pointing to the recorder strapped to her shoulder. Unlike live streaming, the recorder could capture their animal rescue activities less immediately.

Meanwhile, viewers found their screens plunged into darkness, the audio gone.

[What just happened? The screen turned upside-down for a moment, and then it went dark.]

[Did something go wrong?]

[They should be fine. The screen flipped, but both of them were still standing there motionless, so it must be the camera or maybe the cameraman.] Not wanting to keep the viewers in suspense for long, the production team sent a message after contacting the cameraman.

[An unexpected incident caused the camera to malfunction. Both the artists and the cameraman are safe. Please do not worry.]

[Phew, that gave me a scare. I was so worried about Xia Xin.]

[The production team better take good care of them. This isn’t actually a survival show.]

[Agreed. They must be well taken care of.]

Blissfully unaware of the chatter among the livestream viewers, Xia Xin and Jing MO remained where they were. Jing MO noticed that after Xia Xin approached the alpha wolf and gently touched its head, she acquiesced to keeping the wolf pup with her. Frowning slightly, Jing MO felt the stirrings of suspicion.

When Xia Xin returned to him, he chose not to press the issue but rather subtly warned her, “Your talents are extraordinary. If the world ever found out about them, it could cause quite a stir.”

Caught off guard for a moment, Xia Xin smiled back, “I don’t possess any special abilities, really. I just understand animals’ emotions a little better and know how to calm them down, that’s all..”
