Chapter 98 President Lucas is actually him? !
Following the host's introduction, an old gentleman slowly walked towards the podium. There was a little marmoset sitting on his shoulder. He was as naive as a doll and instantly attracted the attention of everyone present.
Isn't he the old gentleman she met on the starship?
"Hi, I'm Lucas."
Lucas has been president of the Interplanetary Humane Society for nearly thirty years, but he doesn't attend every training session.
Therefore, the appearance of President Lucas was a complete surprise for everyone.
"Oh my God! It's really President Lucas! He is my idol!"
"We share the same responsibility! I chose the career of a breeder after listening to the legend of President Lucas since I was a child!"
"Legend? What legend? Isn't President Lucas the president of the Animal Protection Association?"
There were people whispering to each other in front, back, left and right, and Lianghe took advantage of the situation and listened briefly.
It turns out that President Lucas was also a breeder before joining the Animal Protection Association, and he was a very good breeder.
He has participated in animal rescues of various sizes. In addition to physical injuries, most of the furries in his hands also suffered psychological trauma.
"Every time an animal has been harmed by humans, no one else can get close to it. Only President Lucas stays with it day and night and never gives up on any animal."
Unlike Liang He's natural sense of closeness, President Lucas used his sincerity to gain the animals' trust. After a period of getting along, the animals were willing to get close to humans again.
The animals, who gradually let down their guard, finally recovered under the careful care of President Lucas. Even when they left, they had gained a lot of weight. Netizens of Blue Star even jokingly called President Lucas a gas tank. Tank Keepers.
"Later, President Lucas chose to join the Animal Protection Association because he had seen too many animals harmed by humans, so he wanted to do his best to protect more animals."
Every rescue effort is limited. Only by solving the problem at its root can we save more animals.
In this regard, Lianghe agreed with his point of view.
"Lianghe?"
Thoreau saw that the speech was over and Liang He had not gotten up yet, so he poked her arm and tried to remind her.
"Hey! Wake up!"
"Huh?"
Liang He, who was fascinated by the gossip, finally regained consciousness. She turned to look at Thoreau and silently rescued her sleeve from his hand.
"What's wrong?"
Seemingly sensing that Liang He didn't like physical contact, Solo smiled and retracted his hand.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to do it. The main reason is that the speech is over and I should go to the luncheon."
Lianghe looked in the direction of Thoreau's finger and found that only the staff carrying the machines were left on the podium, and President Lucas was nowhere to be seen.
"It's okay, thank you."
There were basically only the finishing staff left in the large conference room. When Liang He saw that the cleaning staff had already moved towards their row of seats, Liang He quickly stood up and walked towards the door, followed closely by Thoreau.
"Ms. Lianghe, please wait a moment."
Just as Lianghe was about to go to the banquet hall, she was suddenly stopped by someone. She looked at him in confusion, as if she didn't recognize him.
"You are?"
"Hello, I am President Lucas' special assistant, and my surname is An."
After listening to the other party's introduction, Liang He remembered that he had introduced his profession and name to President Lucas on the starship. It seemed reasonable that he would look for her.
"Hello, Assistant Ant."
After a friendly handshake, Lianghe observed the surroundings and did not find President Lucas. "Is it the president who is looking for me?"
"Yes, the president is waiting for you in the VIP room. Please come with me."
Perhaps it was President Lucas's special attitude towards Liang He that made Assistant Ant respect her particularly.
You know, if a person who can become a special assistant to the president wants to be promoted, the vice president will basically not run away.
"Okay."
Seeing that Liang He was planning to go to the VIP room with Assistant An, Thoreau left alone with great self-awareness, which actually made Liang He feel more favorable to him.
After she followed Assistant Ant into the VIP room, a very small figure rushed into Liang He's arms. When she lowered her head, she saw a pair of big round eyes staring at her unblinkingly.
"Coco, we meet again."
Liang He stretched out his fingers and gently stroked the little marmoset in his arms, but Assistant Ant beside him was stunned.
The little marmoset that President Lucas carries with him is also a rescued animal. Not long after it was born, it witnessed its parents being brutally murdered by humans.
As primates, they are very humane and naturally more prone to psychological problems.
Except for President Lucas, who fed it little by little, it was impossible for anyone else to get close to the little marmoset, let alone take the initiative to embrace it!
"Ms. Lianghe is familiar with An An?"
Looking at this skillful interaction, no one would believe me even if I said I wasn’t familiar with it, right? !
"We had a chance to have a meal together."
Lianghe fed the little marmoset a meal at that time, which is correct.
"Have you fed Cocoa?!"
Assistant Ant was so shocked that his eyes almost fell out of his sockets.
The parents of the little marmoset ate poisonous food fed by humans and were tortured and killed without the ability to resist.
At the beginning, even President Lucas couldn't feed the little marmoset, so he still found a way to find a ewe and let the little marmoset get close to it and take the initiative to eat.
"Ah? What's wrong?"
Lianghe didn't quite understand what Assistant An was making. After all, the furries she had taken care of all liked the food she fed.
"No...nothing."
On the surface, Assistant Ant's facial features were restrained, but behind his back, he was already screaming like crazy.
What's wrong? The matter is big!
How could someone be so unreasonable and grasp animals that they have only met once?
No, according to Lianghe, the little marmoset was taken advantage of the first time they met...
Okay, okay, as expected, he is the only clown. What does all his years of trying to please mean? ! Assistant Ant felt that he had to crawl in darkness for a while to soothe his traumatized heart.
"Ms. Lianghe, the president is inside. You guys can chat slowly while I wait outside the door."
Watching Assistant An, who was full of mourning, leave, Liang He blinked innocently, moved the little marmoset to his shoulder, and then walked into the back room of the VIP room.
"President Lucas?"
"Haha, Lianghe is here! Come quickly!"
Liang He, who originally thought that President Lucas was the only one in the VIP room, never expected that the experts and professors who had just given a speech on the stage were gathered in the small VIP room and chatting animatedly.
"I just said why Keke was so excited and ran out all of a sudden. It turned out that he was going to pick you up."
President Lucas looked at the little marmoset on Liang He's shoulder, affectionately checking her hair for fleas and the like, and teased her with a hint of jealousy.
"If you have a beautiful young lady, you don't need a bad old man like me. It seems that I am not far away from abdicating my throne in favor of someone more worthy."
