Suddenly, I stop, eyeing the still-shaking Wangzai mischievously: Hehe, an opportunity right before my eyes! I pounce like a hungry tiger.
“Ah—” Damn, I forgot I’m a peerless master! With one effort, I leap over!
Wangzai curiously watches the little girl leap into the water, perplexed by humans. Mom said humans are unpredictable, and now I understand.
Thinking this, Wangzai sneezes, shakes its tail, and elegantly trots away.
I raise my head from the water, angry. Damn fox, I’m not done with you!
“Hey, don’t run!” With a delicate shout, Wangzai darts into the forest like a black whirlwind and disappears.
“This bad thing stole food again?” Taibai looks glumly at the empty bamboo basket, heartbroken. His favorite corn flowers were taken by that despicable fox!
“Damn, my hard-earned corn flowers are all gone. You better not let me catch you, or else, hmph.”
“What are we eating tonight?” Taibai looks at me pitifully, trying to appear innocent.
“Eat fart,” I angrily throw down the basket and storm back to the room. How infuriating! A human and an immortal can’t handle a small fox, what kind of world is this!
Taibai follows, happily asking: “How do you eat fart? Steamed or braised?”
I roll my eyes: This Taibai has gone crazy from eating!
A small hind leg kicked, and the door closed with a creak. Wangzai swayed towards the stove with its proud fox dance steps. A large steamer was emitting something hot.
Climbing but unable to reach, it slid down, leaving six claw marks on the stove. Drooping its fluffy ears and fanning them, it had another idea. With a burst of energy, it charged!
“Squeak—” Ouch— it smashed its head into the stove, forgetting to jump. Covering its head with two small paws, Wangzai rolled on the ground in pain.
Getting up, its emerald green eyes rolled around, retreating backward. Was Wangzai about to try again? Its buttocks raised high, it suddenly kicked its hind legs and dashed forward, targeting the small stool, then the table, and finally, the stove!
Clinging to the steamer, Wangzai licked its lips. Since that last time it tasted some delicious food, it knew that human food was incredibly tasty. No wonder mom said humans are the most enjoyment-loving animals.
Pushing with its small paw, it seemed heavy and unmovable.
