However, the ability of this vine is indeed impressive. With it by Chu Jiangyue’s side, their safety is greatly enhanced.
But seeing the little vine looking resentful next to them, Chu Jiangyue and Little Fox felt a bit helpless.
Since it’s already contracted, they couldn’t just leave the vine behind.
Moreover, the little vine had just gotten into a fight and clearly lost. If you lose, you admit defeat, and it’s not their fault.
Chu Jiangyue and Little Fox exchanged a knowing glance, a hint of helplessness in the eyes of both human and fox.
"Alright, alright, I’ll give you a bit more of my superpower today. Look, you are all vines, you might be family from 500 years ago, so don’t be upset."
Chu Jiangyue reached out another hand to let the little vine wrap around it.
Although unwilling, the little vine knew that the situation was a done deal and could only compromise.
Seeing Chu Jiangyue’s hand always adorned with the "Jade Bracelet," Shen Zhigui and the others looked at Chu Jiangyue with complicated expressions.
Whenever they saw mutated animals, they prayed not to provoke them, yet Chu Jiangyue casually carried two of them.
Is the gap between people really this big?
Chu Jiangyue also noticed the complicated gaze of Shen Zhigui and his group and gave an awkward smile.
She didn’t want this either; perhaps it was just her good fortune.
"Let’s go, we should head back to the hotel as soon as possible."
Even with the vine contracted, Chu Jiangyue still felt uneasy and wanted to return to Jianglin Hotel as quickly as possible.
Shen Zhigui and the others nodded and left the base with the black and white pandas.
However, the pandas were quite large, and Chu Jiangyue’s car could fit at most two. Eventually, Shen Zhigui’s group chose three of them, opened the navigation, and selected the silver off-road vehicle as their transport. One vehicle held two pandas, and the last vehicle had one panda along with the remaining people.
Soon, the group of six with seven pandas were all in the cars.
Chu Jiangyue’s car took the lead, heading for Jianglin Hotel at top speed.
After leaving the base and driving 500 meters, a loud noise suddenly sounded, making Chu Jiangyue instinctively hit the brakes.
"Host, just now, a sinkhole appeared at the Panda Base, and the entire base has sunk."
The Little Fox, perched on Chu Jiangyue’s shoulder, patted its chest with its paw, relieved they had left in time. Otherwise, escaping from a sinkhole wouldn’t be easy.
Hearing Little Fox’s words, Chu Jiangyue also exhaled a deep breath; she hadn’t expected her anxiety to be because the Panda Base was about to collapse.
Shen Zhigui’s car was right behind Chu Jiangyue’s, and when she stopped, they stopped as well.
The next moment, a message came in asking why Chu Jiangyue had suddenly stopped.
Chu Jiangyue explained the sinkhole incident at the Panda Base and then continued driving forward.
The moment the sinkhole occurred, Chu Jiangyue’s anxiety dissipated.
Without the anxiety, Chu Jiangyue drove very steadily afterwards.
The two pandas in the backseat were very well-behaved in Chu Jiangyue’s car, not disturbing her driving at all along the way.
Finally arriving back at Jianglin Hotel, Chu Jiangyue let out a sigh of relief; they were safe at last.
Chu Jiangyue was the first to get out, then opened the back door to let the two pandas out.
"We’ve arrived, you can get out now."
Shen Zhigui and his group’s actions followed Chu Jiangyue’s, and the sudden appearance of the pandas in the hotel attracted a lot of onlookers.
"Wow, where did Boss Chu ’steal’ these pandas? They’re so cute!"
"Cute indeed, but a bit skinny."
"In the apocalypse, who knows what happened to the keepers. The fact that they’ve survived this long is quite a stroke of luck."
