Compared to the time and effort it took to communicate with the koala, interacting with the little monkey was noticeably easier. At the very least, Liang He no longer needed to gesticulate wildly to help it understand her.
"SQUEAK SQUEAK! SQUEAK SQUEAK!" The little monkey thought for a moment before suddenly jumping up and down. It bounded over to the riverbank. Just as Liang He worried it might fall in and stepped forward to stop it, the ensuing scene froze her in place.
"Is... is it performing?"
Beside her, Hoder clearly hadn't seen this kind of spectacle either. His eyes were wide open, staring unblinkingly at the little monkey's every move.
"More accurately, it's imitating." Liang He recalled a monkey's natural trait: they were adept at mimicking humans. Since it couldn't speak, it could only answer Liang He's questions this way.
