But Xiao Xiao's umbrella did not fall.
A split second before Xiao Xiao let go, Little White Fox, who had leaped onto his shoulder, wrapped its tail around the umbrella handle with lightning speed.
The umbrella tilted for only a second before once again steadying itself over Xiao Xiao's head.
Xiao Xiao's series of actions—saving the person, saving the drink, switching places with Little White Fox, and catching the umbrella—all happened in the blink of an eye.
Before anyone else could react, they had already completed the rescue perfectly.
No one had even seen clearly how they—no, how Xiao Xiao—had done it.
When the old woman came over, Xiao Xiao backed away several steps while holding up his umbrella, making room for the old woman and the child.
After repeatedly examining the child and confirming that he was unharmed, the old woman finally remembered the child's lifesaver.
The old woman slowly straightened her back.
She was getting old.
Even after bending over for only a short while, straightening up again was somewhat difficult.
The old woman looked at the young man before her, a grateful smile appearing on her face.
"Young man, thank you."
The old woman thanked him sincerely.
She hadn't even seen what the young man had done...
And her grandson had been saved.
This young man was incredible.
The old woman was filled with emotion.
As expected of a young person.
His reactions were so quick.
"You're welcome."
Xiao Xiao curved his lips.
"It's good that the child is fine."
"He's fine."
The old woman lowered her head and looked at the child standing beside her and drinking his beverage.
She shook her head slightly.
"Lele."
"Why aren't you thanking Big Brother?"
"Thank Big Brother for saving you."
"Otherwise, you would've fallen."
