Do Not Speak Ill of My Mother!
Chapter 455: Earned enough tears

Chapter 455: Earned enough tears

Still drinking hot water?

Is it really that exaggerated?

The online audience claimed to have seen the world, fearless of anything, and even said the Animal Base was learning to tease by playing coy?

Xiao Yu didn’t explain much and continued filming with the cameraman towards the second hall’s infirmary.

The furry kids who came to the Animal Base, as long as their injuries weren’t too severe, could be discharged after being treated by Doctor Xu and kept under observation in the isolation room.

Those with serious injuries needed to be transferred to the intensive care ward in the second hall, commonly referred to as the veterinary ICU.

To allow the doctors to constantly monitor the health of the furry kids, the intensive care ward was fitted with one-way glass; the doctors could clearly see the animals from the outside, and the animals wouldn’t feel scared by seeing people walking around outside.

The camera turned to a monkey.

Xiao Yu said with a heavy heart, "Look at this monkey, everyone. It’s already very old. It was trained to pick coconuts in the past... We can pick at most 120 to 160 coconuts by hand in one day, but a trained monkey can pick at least one thousand. The ruthless foreman not only made it work but also knocked out its teeth for efficiency’s sake, to prevent it from eating the coconuts when it got too hungry from picking..."

The camera zoomed in, capturing the frail monkey struggling to breathe.

In its slightly open mouth, there was a mess of blood and pus, and many burnt blisters burst open, looking mottled and terrifying.

The live comments were frightened.

"Damn, I’m eating, why suddenly show this?!"

"Wow... is that foreman too cruel? Knocking out the monkey’s teeth to increase efficiency?"

"Our country doesn’t have animal protection laws for ordinary animals, and many people use the most brutal methods on these animals..."

"When I bought coconut water, the packaging had a monkey symbol crossed out in red. I thought it meant monkeys were prohibited from drinking it... Later, a friend from the southern province told me that it meant this brand of coconuts wasn’t picked by monkeys, but all picked by hand."

"I’ve learned something new..."

"My boyfriend is ridiculous. When I talked to him about this, he thought monkeys working for their food, just like us humans, was no big deal, so why feel sorry for them? Absolutely speechless! This isn’t about work; it’s about abusive raising, okay!"

"Look at the sister above, she’s so angry, she even got the ex-boyfriend status wrong!"

"Break up quickly, I’m scared this indifferent guy will do something terrifying to missy!"

"+1."

The topic drifted a bit.

Xiao Yu quickly brought it back, "After the monkey got old, the foreman didn’t want it anymore and sold it to a street performer, where it was whipped into performing hard labour for several more years... Not long ago, it contracted a disease and its body was covered in sores, so it was abandoned next to a trash bin... A kind-hearted lady brought it to us here. After being treated by Doctor Xu, we’re still struggling to snatch it back from the jaws of death."

The live comments were a mix of tears and laughter.

"Everything before was so sad, but why did I burst out laughing when I heard about snatching the monkey from the jaws of death."

"The host is really something, so good at adjusting the atmosphere..."

"Boo hoo hoo, this monkey is so pitiful..."

"I’ve already dumped my ex-boyfriend! The sisters are right, someone who is indifferent to life might do something terrible to me later! You didn’t see his nonchalant attitude just now; it even made me feel like the monkey was abused by him!"

Xiao Yu signalled the cameraman to film the next animal.

A two-year-old puppy, crushed by a car accident and abandoned by its owner due to expensive treatment costs...

And a kitten with feline distemper, isolated alone in a small storage room...

In the Animal Base’s intensive care area, not a single animal was whole... The sight of them missing limbs was very heart-wrenching.

Not just the online audience, but even the staff filming the live broadcast had red eyes.

Many people hit the follow button.

"Wow, this is the first time I’ve paid such close attention to an abused animal..."

"Honestly, such terrible live broadcast footage would have been reported and taken down for gore on any other platform! But Big Cat is amazing, truly worthy of Big Boss Yue’s promoted app, daring to record the most real scenes..."

Xiao Yu didn’t let everyone watch for too long, her eyes brimming with tears as she quickly took the cameraman to a hall.

There, people holding their furry children were lined up, a young nurse was checking on the animals one by one, letting those with the most severe conditions go first, while those with lighter symptoms could wait a bit.

The camera shifted from the sick animals to that group of compassionate individuals wearing masks.

It had quite a redemptive feel to it.

The world is vast with many problems, but there are always people patching things up.

Big Boss Yue was working hard, and so were these compassionate souls.

Had they not brought the furry children all this way, they would have ended up as nothing but bones by the roadside! Dying on the cold, despairing ground, looking at the sky, not understanding what they had done wrong to deserve this fate.

Such a contrast really makes one sigh.

The fans shared their thoughts:

"I never understood why Big Boss Yue invested so much money in the Animal Base, but now I get it... Life on earth isn’t just about humans, every life deserves respect."

"Yeah, every time someone brings up the topic of animals, some idiot jumps out and asks why not spend the money on humans or something? But if you look closely, you’ll see that Big Boss Yue’s investment in the foundation for critically ill children has already relieved pressure on most struggling families. The Animal Base does the same! It shelters many abused animals, and most of the staff it hires are disabled... She really puts her heart into respecting every life."

"She’s the woman I admire! Perfect!"

The live broadcast didn’t last too long because the base was short-staffed, Xiao Yu broadcast for only two hours before preparing to sign off.

The netizens all expressed their reluctance to see it end!

It wasn’t until Xiao Yu promised to start the broadcast every day at ten in the morning that the fans were satisfied.

As she was packing up the equipment, Xiao Yu was saying goodbye to the fans one by one.

It was just then that Yan Yueqing came down with two children.

She had been in the cafe, watching the live broadcast on her tablet, and thought Xiao Yu did an amazing job!

She could control the pace, stir the viewers’ emotions, and timely pull back, offering them positive guidance instead of letting them wallow in sorrow.

What a divine broadcaster!

When Xiao Yu saw her coming, her face instantly lit up: "Our boss is here~ Boss, do you want to say hi to the viewers?"

The fans’ brains were bogged down with tears, and they didn’t immediately realize who Xiao Yu’s boss was.

Then they saw a stunning face enter the screen, "Hello, everyone."

The barrage of comments paused in surprise.

After a moment, they uniformly started sending messages saying "Hello Big Boss Yue."

Yan Yueqing asked with a smile, "Do you all like the broadcaster Xiao Yu I picked?"

"We do!"

"The broadcaster is really great!"

"We love the broadcaster, but we love Big Boss Yue’s hard work in establishing the Animal Base even more!"

Yan Yueqing corrected, "I just established the base, but the real hard work is done by the staff here~ Like our Doctor Xu, who has to treat many different diseases in furry children every day... The nurses in the recovery area always have to keep a close eye on their health... and the caregivers in the rehab area, aunties, and uncles, everyone is working hard, hoping they can be healthy in body and mind~"

"Wuwuwu, Big Boss Yue is beautiful and kind-hearted!"

"We hope the base grows bigger and stronger~ But will bad people target the base if it becomes too well-known?"
