"Meow~!"
'You little glutton, all you think about is eating!'
Xiaojiu couldn't stand it any longer. He leaped down from the stone block, landed precisely on Leopard's broad back, and swatted him on the head with a paw.
Leopard let out a whimper, shrinking his neck resentfully. He hid behind Hu Zi, peeking out with only half his head, his eyes fixed pitifully on Yang Qi.
Amused by his furry kids, Yang Qi reached out and patted each of them on the head.
"Don't worry. There's plenty to eat."
Surrounded by his furry kids, he walked into the small courtyard and shut the door behind him.
He went inside and turned on the lights.
Yang Qi put down his small bag, sat on the living room sofa, and poured himself a glass of cool water, sipping it slowly.
Xiaojiu hopped onto the arm of the sofa and lay down gracefully.
Bai Wan lay down at his feet.
Hu Zi and Leopard settled down on the rug beside the sofa, one to the left and one to the right, keeping him company in silence.
