Chapter 70

Shi Qing was stunned, never expecting that taming a dolphin would be so simple.

Xue Zonghong, Gu Mei, and the others were completely in awe of Su Jing from a professional perspective. Xue Zonghong considered himself to have a certain level of expertise in training dolphins, and he had once been quite proud of it. However, at this moment, he felt utterly inadequate.

Under the stunned gazes of everyone, Su Jing rode the dolphin back to the shore. The dolphin's head emerged from the water, affectionately nudging Gu Mei's foot. It was clear that the dolphin still liked Gu Mei, but had previously been immersed in depression.

"Xiao Chong, good boy." Gu Mei hugged the dolphin, tears of joy streaming down her face.

"Mr. Su, can you actually communicate with dolphins?" Xue Zonghong, an expert in the field, asked a very amateur question. He was completely baffled because all Su Jing seemed to have done was talk to the dolphin, and it had come out of its depression.

"Ha ha, how could I possibly communicate with dolphins? I just happened to guess the reason for Xiao Chong's depression and won his favor. Perhaps this is the intuition that animals possess," Su Jing explained ambiguously.

"What was the reason for Xiao Chong's depression?" Gu Mei asked.

"Because the audience's applause and cheers were too loud," Su Jing said. Xiao Chong nodded in agreement and let out a call.

"Is that really the case?" Xue Zonghong and Gu Mei were taken aback. Xue Zonghong thought for a moment and said, "I know dolphins are sensitive to sound, but I never expected that cheers and applause would make them depressed."

"Mr. Xue, Xiao Chong's condition is more serious than just depression. If we delay any longer, he might commit suicide," Su Jing said, causing Xue Zonghong and Gu Mei to change their expressions, almost breaking out in a cold sweat. To them, Xiao Chong was like a child.

"I will suggest to the director that we require the audience to remain quiet in the future. If that's not possible, the performance will have to take place in a soundproof enclosure," Xue Zonghong said. However, performing in a soundproof enclosure was not practical, as the dolphin pool was large, and covering it with a soundproof glass enclosure would be very expensive. Moreover, the audience enjoyed hearing the dolphins splash and being splashed by their tails. If a glass enclosure were used, much of the fun would be lost. The best approach would be to educate the audience to remain quiet.

"I promised Xiao Chong, so if you can't do it, I will do everything in my power to take him away and give him freedom," Su Jing said calmly.

"Don't worry, I guarantee it with my career," Xue Zonghong nodded. Both of them spoke in a calm tone, but it was clear that they were serious.

At this moment, Gu Mei fetched some fresh fish to feed Xiao Chong. Xiao Chong no longer refused to eat and ate happily, even jumping out of the water to catch the fish with his mouth. Seeing Xiao Chong return to his lively self, everyone finally felt relieved.

"Mr. Su, are you interested in visiting the fish I keep?" Xue Zonghong suddenly asked.

"Yours? Not the aquarium's?" Su Jing was puzzled. Could someone privately keep fish in an aquarium?

"Ha ha, they are privately kept by me," Xue Zonghong smiled. He was the only one who could privately keep fish in the aquarium. The director gave him such freedom for two main reasons: first, as a trainer and veterinarian, Xue Zonghong also conducted his own research, and keeping fish was the best method; second, many of the fish he kept were extremely valuable, and occasionally placing them in the display tanks attracted visitors.

The reason Xue Zonghong invited Su Jing was not only because he thought Su Jing was a fellow fish enthusiast but also because he had a bit of a private agenda. He wanted Su Jing to check if his fish had any problems. After seeing Su Jing cure the dolphin, he already considered Su Jing's skills to be superior to his own.

"Oh, let's take a look," Su Jing, unaware of Xue Zonghong's thoughts, was simply interested in Xue Zonghong's collection.

When Su Jing was about to leave, Xiao Chong surfaced and called out to him, his reluctant expression making all the trainers envious and moved. They wondered when they would receive such treatment from a dolphin.

"Xiao Chong, eat well and be good. I'll come back to see you," Su Jing patted the dolphin's head. The dolphin nudged Su Jing's hand, still somewhat reluctant, as Su Jing was the only human who could understand him.

Xue Zonghong led Su Jing and Shi Qing away from the dolphin pool to his office and opened the door.

"Isn't that Su Jing and Shi Qing? What a coincidence to see them again," a girl said nearby.

"They're not going to the dolphin area," Wu Min was puzzled.

"That's Mr. Xue's private office," Yang Tong frowned, suddenly feeling even more uneasy. He knew that Xue Zonghong's office was generally not open to outsiders. Those who could enter, besides assistants, were people Xue Zonghong highly recognized. What did Su Jing have that gave him such treatment?

"Yang Tong, is Su Jing really as bad as you said?" a tall boy asked, puzzled. Yang Tong remained silent.

Su Jing, Shi Qing, and Xue Zonghong entered a very spacious office. It was more like a small aquarium and a small clinic, with half of the space filled with various fish tanks and fish, and the other half with medical equipment. A few assistants were examining the fish on the medical side.

"Mr. Su, these are the fish I keep. I hope you don't mind," Xue Zonghong smiled.

"This could be an exhibition hall," Su Jing marveled. He could see that the fish here were not only numerous but also of rare and excellent varieties. The total value of these fish must be very high.

"Ha ha, some are gifts from friends, and some I've collected from various places. Take a look and see if there's anything you like."

"I'll take a look," Su Jing said, suddenly his gaze fixed on a small fish tank. "Shi Qing, come look here."

"Where?" Shi Qing followed Su Jing's gaze and blushed, lightly scolding, "Pervert."

Inside the tank, two fish were kissing, completely oblivious to their surroundings, kissing passionately, more intimately than a French kiss.

"These are kissing fish," Su Jing smiled.

"They should be called shameless fish," Shi Qing rolled her eyes, her face flushed.

"That's their nature. These fish are famous for their mutual 'kissing.' Interestingly, they not only kiss between different sexes but also between the same sex. Kissing is not a sign of friendship or love but a form of competition. Of course, many people ignore this and buy them to symbolize lasting love," Su Jing said with a laugh.

"Mr. Su is indeed knowledgeable," Xue Zonghong praised.

"Not at all, I just read it in a magazine. I only know a little," Su Jing humbly replied.

As they continued to look around, Su Jing became increasingly amazed. There were golden arowanas, lionhead cichlids, and red-crowned koi... Although Su Jing was not an expert, he knew enough to estimate that the total value of these fish must be in the millions. Xue Zonghong was truly a super fish enthusiast.

"Mr. Su, do you see any problems with my fish?" Xue Zonghong asked.

"I don't see any problems; they are all well-kept." Hearing Xue Zonghong's question, Su Jing guessed his intention and found it somewhat amusing. In terms of expertise, he was far inferior to Xue Zonghong.

"That's good," Xue Zonghong chuckled, relieved.

"Hey, are these all lionhead cichlids?" Su Jing's eyes lit up as he saw a tank full of fish fry.
