Diary of a Panda Cub’s Foster Care

Ruan Ruan, a panda who has only just learned to take human form, leaves the mountains to go to school. Her master has her stay with the human Lu family.

The Lu family's mother is a cultured and elegant philanthropist who chairs a foundation and has built a successful career. Yet she gently dries Ruan Ruan's hair, cuddles her to sleep, and makes her delicious desserts.

The Lu family's father is the president of a publicly listed company. Always dressed in a suit, he seems stern and hard to approach, but he's given Ruan Ruan a whole room full of presents.

The Lu family's older brother is passionate, outspoken, and upright. He thumps his chest and promises to protect Ruan Ruan.

Her schoolmates are warm and friendly. Their biggest problem is that everyone loves pandas too much, so Ruan Ruan has to be very careful to hide her panda tail.

Her senior fellow disciples, who have been traveling through the human world, also gradually find Ruan Ruan...

Ruan Ruan is so happy that she's almost sprouting the tips of her fluffy ears.

Before she left, her master took Ruan Ruan aside and warned her again and again not to reveal her true form.

Ruan Ruan clenched her little paws and nodded vigorously.

Who could have guessed...

Humans get into trouble when they drink. Pandas get into trouble when they drink milk.

Lu Jiu gazed at the panda cub in his arms, hiccupping from milk and drunk as can be, lost in thought...

A new post with an eye-catching title appeared on Panda High's school forum: What should you do if you find a panda drunk on milk?

The comments piled up like crazy: Squee!

Raising Cubs as a Panda: A Diary

Pan Nuannuan is young but seriously ill, and needs constant, careful attention. She's a delicate rose raised in a greenhouse.

Before undergoing surgery, she wants to experience what it's like to be in love, so she accepts the Zhu family's request for an arranged marriage and gets engaged to their eldest son, Zhu Sun.

After the surgery, whose outcome could mean life or death, Pan Nuannuan never expected to wake up as a panda, and one about to give birth!

Looking at two red, wrinkly panda cubs bawling for food, Pan Nuannuan's heart softens. What else can she do? Raise them, of course.

Through mountains and forests, up trees and down rivers, life as a panda is hard. Nuannuan sighs.

One day, Pan Nuannuan happens to discover that her neighbor, the owner of a luxurious villa in the mountains, is none other than her nominal fiance, whom she's met only a few times.

Pan Nuannuan immediately scoops up the two panda cubs playing in the mud. "Come on, let's go find your dad!"

The villa's owner opens the door to find three fluffy pandas, one big and two small, sitting side by side and gazing up at him in unison.

Nuannuan puffs out her round cheeks and holds up a bouquet of wild chrysanthemums in her furry paws. Her eyes sparkle as she pleads: Squee me, take me in.

Zhu Sun: ...

Nuannuan cracks fresh bamboo with her left paw and scoops up a panda cub with her right for a big sniff. Today is another hard day of raising cubs (and happily squeeing pandas).
