Wangliang Gui searched back and forth along the lakeside for a long time.
It even stuck its head into the lake.
It wondered if Chiu Chiu had fallen into the water.
It tried hard to open its eyes underwater.
Out of the corner of its eye, it caught sight of a dark shape swimming rapidly toward it.
It almost thought it was Chiu Chiu.
But the sudden alarm in its heart saved its life.
It wasn't Chiu Chiu.
It was a fierce monster.
If it hadn't reacted in time, the other creature would have bitten its nose off.
It was still shaken.
"Wawa~"
Wangliang Gui took a few steps back, but still felt unwilling to give up.
What if Chiu Chiu really had fallen into the lake?
Could that creature have eaten Chiu Chiu?
The thought flashed through its mind, and Wangliang Gui froze.
It clenched its fists.
No... No...
It stared fixedly at the monster in the water.
The creature looked like a fish.
But it had wings.
Wangliang Gui's gaze involuntarily settled on those wings.
After all, ever since meeting Chiu Chiu, what it envied most was Chiu Chiu's pair of wings.
It had once imagined having a pair of wings of its own.
Then it could fly through the sky with Chiu Chiu.
The sky... must be a lot of fun, right?
It had done plenty of silly things for that dream.
For instance, it had tried making a pair of wings to attach to its body, then flapped them like Chiu Chiu, hoping to soar into the sky.
Naturally, it had failed.
Every time, it fell and wound up bruised and battered.
After that, Chiu Chiu forbade it from making any more wings and stopped teaching it how to fly.
It had been terribly disappointed.
