I have a wildlife zoo

"Wow, such a big tree, it really looks just like in the MV!"

Dressed in a pink Hanfu, Tong Yiya walked along the Sky Bridge in the bird exhibit, looking towards the distant and massive tetrameles nudiflora with some awe.

Today, Linhai Zoo was busier than usual, with many beautiful girls in ancient-style clothing flitting around.

Of course, they all came for the check-in event.

Other visitors encountered on the way sometimes cast curious glances.

The companion responsible for filming suggested, "The scenery here is nice, shall we film right here?"

"Yeah, that's fine!"

The companion set down a portable speaker, played a song, and a bright smile appeared on Tong Yiya's face as she began to dance gracefully.

After a few takes, she said, "Let's go, time to change spots."

She planned to film her dance at different attractions, to gather more material for a seamless edit later on.

Walking through the bird exhibit, looking for the perfect backdrop, and then dancing several times over!

If she got tired, she'd rest right there—with such beautiful scenery, it truly was an immensely enjoyable experience.

...

After dancing for two hours, Tong Yiya left the bird exhibit at 11 o'clock.

Upon arriving at the zoo restaurant, her face immediately showed a look of delight.

In one corner of the restaurant, there were beautiful girls dressed in ancient costumes!

Some of them she knew quite well, and even had collaborated on dance videos with; they waved to her happily.

"Fairy! You're here!"

"Lizhi! Wow, your clothes are so pretty! Taozi, you're here too!"

Tong Yiya sat down and was about to wipe her sweat with the back of her hand when Taozi handed her a handkerchief with a giggly smile, "Sis, use this!"

"Mua, thank you!" Said Tong Yiya as she wiped her sweat, "The bird exhibit is actually quite warm. It feels like the temperature is way higher than outside. The scenery is genuinely beautiful, even more so than in the MV, I think."

Taozi had obviously seen the behind-the-scenes footage and asked curiously, "Did the parrots disturb you while you were dancing?"

Tong Yiya laughed, "No, actually, I was kind of hoping they would come over! To dance along, it would have been fun."

Lizhi, wearing an elegantly simple blue and white long dress, expressed a bit of regret, "So you were in the bird exhibit this morning. Taozi and I went to the bamboo forest; otherwise, we might have run into you."

Taozi excitedly said, "Speaking of which, there is a red panda exhibit near the bamboo forest. The red pandas are really super cute! They're fluffy and were running around in the snow, looking extremely happy."

"There was snow?"

"According to the animal keeper, the temperature has dropped these past few days, so they spread some snow in a few exhibits with a snowmaking machine."

The girls chattered on about what they'd seen, and Taozi proposed, "Hey, let's not film this afternoon and go check it out together!"

Tong Yiya thought for a bit and agreed, "Okay!"

As a southern person, hearing about snow stirred something innate within her.

Since they couldn't finish filming in one day anyway, they might as well go have some fun first, and she really wanted to appreciate the zoo under a blanket of snow!

...

The tiger exhibit!

Usually, the most noticeable feature of the tiger exhibit is the verdantly spreading, shimmering pool.

The water contains some decorative reeds, surrounded by lush green grass, with a dense backdrop of pine trees standing tall, giving off a vibrant life force.

But today, the entire exhibit had turned into a pristine white world, covered in a thick blanket of snow, all vitality concealed and hushed, with an absolute stillness that offered a tranquil, serene atmosphere.

The undulating contours of the raised hills shimmered in an off-white glow under the gentle sunlight, as if draped in a silver-white overcoat.

The half-moon-shaped pond, usually with circulating water, keeps flowing, creating a spray of water at the steps.

Today the water circulation was also turned off, turning it into a silver mirror, calm and undisturbed, reflecting the surrounding white snow and the pale blue sky.

The lush green grass and trees of days past felt bedecked in silver. The proud pines stood erect, still majestic even when covered with snow, like straight swords piercing the clouds. The snow accumulated on the pine needles formed alternating white and green pine balls.

It was like a crystal clear, pure and beautiful fairy tale world!

"Wow, this snow scene is so beautiful! I love it when it snows the most."

Tong Yiya couldn't help but exclaim as she looked at the tranquil scenery of the park.

Lizhi was also astounded and nodded, "It would be nice if we could go in and play in the snow."

Of course, she only said this casually; after all, there were tigers inside.

However, with the beautiful snowscape as a backdrop, recording a dance video wouldn't be a bad idea.

"Hey! There's a tiger, a tiger!" Taozi pointed in one direction.

Jiaojiao was strolling leisurely on the hillside, patrolling!

She had been in the zoo since she was born, had never been to the north, and was experiencing snowfall for the first time, which felt very novel to her.

Amur tigers, distributed in the Northeast and the Russian Far East, thrive in snowy, icy environments. The thick fur was made for this, and she didn't feel cold at all, but rather quite comfortable.

Walking on the soft snowy ground, she left behind clear tiger paw prints.

A touch of coolness transmitted from the pads of her paws up to her nervous system, making every cell in her body shiver and come alive with joyous cheers.

The snowy environment was awakening the Amur tiger's instincts!

Jiaojiao didn't know why, but feeling the softness and the cold of the snow, looking at the white expanse of Dadi, and gazing at the snowy pines brought her great happiness!

High on the hillside, a large golden tiger with striking fur roamed through the white snow, majestically surveying its territory.

Muscles rolled beneath thick fur like golden waves churning.

Below the hillside was the tranquil half-moon-shaped pond, like a silver mirror.

The beautiful white snowscape perfectly showcased the tiger's strength and agility merged, a charm unique to the great cats!

Visitors excitedly snapped pictures, discussing with lively interest!

"Seeing a tiger in this snowscape makes the usual scenery so much more beautiful!"

"The tiger belongs to the snow land, and the snow land belongs to the tiger! The king has returned!"

Tong Yiya's eyes widened, completely mesmerized: "So handsome!"

She seldom visited zoos, and today completely overturned her impression of them. Explore more stories at My Virtual Library Empire

Jiaojiao stopped in front of a pine tree, looked it over, then stood upright.

Her sharp claws scratched on the surface of the pine, one mark after another.

Swish~swish~

As Jiaojiao scratched hard, the brown thick bark of the pine displayed white marks, and the accumulated snow on the pine needles also fell in puffs like someone sprinkling flour from above as the tree shook.

A layer of snow settled on Jiaojiao's head; instead of shaking it off like shaking water, she let the snow stay there, squinting her eyes comfortably with the cool feeling.

Then she stood on the hillside, overlooking the snowy landscape of the park, suddenly feeling an urge to roar and run.

Taking a deep breath, her chest heaved, and she let out a deafening tiger roar!

Roar!!!!—

The tiger's roar echoed to the heavens, like thunder rolling endlessly through the park.

The snow on the surrounding trees was shaken so much that it fell with a "flutter."
