This was what Xiao Xiao had deduced from some of little Taotie's remarks just now.
"Can you tell me..."
Xiao Xiao was a little curious. "What happened between you and that stray dog just now?"
Little Taotie shook its head instinctively.
No way.
Was it supposed to tell Lord Xiao Xiao...
That stupid dog had not only misunderstood its relationship with Lord Xiao Xiao, but had also confidently told it... that Lord Xiao Xiao had abandoned it?
As if.
It would never tell Lord Xiao Xiao something so embarrassing.
Little Taotie's expression was resolute.
Xiao Xiao laughed and shook his head.
"Little Taotie, you're being very sneaky."
"I told you everything that happened to me just now."
"In exchange, you should tell me what happened to you, too."
"That's only fair."
Little Taotie turned its head away.
Its face was set in a firm expression.
It wouldn't.
Besides, it wasn't stupid.
Lord Xiao Xiao had told it what had happened to him because he had kept it waiting.
It hadn't kept Lord Xiao Xiao waiting.
A hint of amusement flickered in Xiao Xiao's eyes.
He lightly tapped little Taotie on the forehead with a bent finger.
"Little Taotie, you're getting clever."
Little Taotie lifted its head.
It looked a little smug, and a little indignant.
What did he mean, getting clever?
It had always been smart, okay?!
"Yes, yes."
Xiao Xiao smiled and nodded. "You've always been smart."
He stopped pressing little Taotie about what had happened between it and the stray dog before he returned.
After all, little Taotie had a point.
It had no reason to tell him.
Little Taotie bit down on its straw.
Having gotten the answer it wanted, it turned all its attention back to the food.
