But when Xiao Xiao got a clear look at the figure's pose, he couldn't help finding it both funny and exasperating.
This old man... He sure was stubborn.
The old man was clinging to the monster's tail like a sloth, arms and legs wrapped tightly around it.
He looked like he'd rather die than let go.
"Pfft~"
Little White Fox couldn't help laughing. A hint of amusement shone in its narrow fox eyes. "Is it really that impressive?"
"Hiss~ What a shameless pest."
