All right.
Looking at the little Taotie clutching the roasted corn for dear life, Xiao Xiao thought, The world hadn't changed.
Xiao Xiao pulled out a tissue and laid it underneath.
Then he set the roasted corn, little Taotie and all, on the tissue.
Little Taotie never strayed even an inch from the roasted corn while Xiao Xiao was moving it.
It nimbly scampered to the top of the corn.
Then it grinned, baring its sharp teeth.
Time to dig in!
Looking at the roasted corn, now half gone, Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly.
He took another tissue.
He put the other ear of corn, the one for little Taotie, on the tissue.
Then he picked up the last ear of roasted corn, which was his.
He dug in.
"Third Brother, where did you buy the roasted corn?"
Zhuge Yun asked through a mouthful of food. "It's pretty good."
"Just near our school."
Xiao Xiao smiled. "Go out, turn right, and keep walking."
"It must be a new stall."
"They're doing great business."
"I saw a lot of people buying it, so I went over and got some too."
"Good thing you went to the trouble of getting it."
Zhuge Yun gave his approval. "The roasted corn tastes pretty good."
"Yeah."
Zhang Bo nodded.
"I think it's really good too."
Zhao Luzheng grinned.
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"Glad to hear it."
Little Taotie nodded.
The flavor was decent.
There just wasn't enough.
Heaven knew how much it had wanted to sweep up every last ear of roasted corn from the stall.
Of course,
it had only thought about it.
Lord Xiao Xiao certainly wouldn't have let it do that.
Humans were such a hassle.
Little Taotie snorted.
Hmph.
Xiao
