A Recipe for a Double Whipping

Candy furrowed her brows.

"But after looking at it, I don't feel like eating any."

Mo Jingchun pointed at Candy's stomach and said crossly,

"For the past few days, your little mouth hasn't stopped from morning till night. Feel your belly—it's still stuffed full. It'd be strange if you could eat any more."

After noon, there were generally very few people who came to pay New Year's visits in the afternoon. Besides, someone was keeping watch outside, so Mo Jingchun wasn't worried at all about not knowing if guests arrived.

So that afternoon, Mo Jingchun made Candy sit obediently by the fire in the Fire Pit Room instead of letting her go out and run wild with Zero.

"Meow~"

Baozi had been purring, but when she saw Mo Jingchun bring over a plate of sunflower seeds and everyone start cracking them, she got up and rubbed around their legs ingratiatingly.

"Meow~"

Mo Jingchun raised an eyebrow, unsure what Baozi meant.

Only when Candy joked, "Hahaha, does Baozi want to crack sunflower seeds too?" did he get it.

"Meow~" Baozi nodded.

Candy, who had been laughing, froze, disbelief in her eyes.

Could cats crack sunflower seeds too???

To test her guess, Candy picked up a tiny handful of sunflower seeds and put them on the Cement Floor.

As Mo Jingchun, Candy, and Zero watched, Baozi put the seeds in her mouth.

The next moment, the familiar sound of sunflower seeds being cracked came from Baozi's mouth. Candy and Mo Jingchun looked at each other, stunned.

But what happened next stunned the siblings even more.

Baozi spat out one nearly whole seed shell after another.

She'd already finished the few seeds Candy had given her.

"Meow~"

Baozi slowly swished her tail, staring intently at Baozi, who still hadn't recovered from the shock.
