"Don't speak too soon."
Xiao Xiao raised an eyebrow.
"Who was it that said he wouldn't eat too much, then ended up stuffed?"
Taotie:...
The eyes under its arms immediately began to dart around.
It was feeling a little annoyed, too.
That was the darkest stain in its life.
It had only been an accident!
Did they know what an accident was?!
Taotie glared at Xiao Xiao.
"Once was an accident..."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"What if it happens a second time?"
"Would that still be an accident?"
Taotie had the classic childish temperament of someone who remembered the treat but not the lesson.
It always did exactly what it wanted.
It paid no attention to what its body could actually handle.
Its willfulness was enough to give anyone a headache.
"No bargaining."
Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly.

Taotie turned its back.
Stingy!
Miserly!
Hateful human!
"Is it angry?"

Zhuge Yun held out his hand.
A few candies wrapped in pretty candy wrappers lay in his palm.
Under the lights, they shimmered in a rainbow of colors.
Zhang Bo:...
