Li Du had never participated in hunting before, and was actually looking forward to such an activity.
He had wanted to invite Sophie along but she had rejected him. "Sorry Li, I don’t wish to raise any guns at animals. Um, but I respect your hobby, I just don’t want to do it."
Mr. Li said, "I understand—actually, I don’t want to kill small animals either. It makes me seem cruel."
At the other end of the phone, Sophie laughed, "Don’t misunderstand, I’m not some animal rights advocate. I eat meat too, but because at work I encounter too many instances of fresh blood and wounds, I don’t wish to see these in my personal life."
She was worried Li Du would overthink matters, and added, "It’s good that you guys participate in hunting, this is to protect the ecosystem in the country’s parks—my father has participated before."
Li Du smiled; the lady doctor was really an understanding lady.
