Chapter 1216 - 383: Shadow, Scalding_4
freeweɓnøvel.com Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives—in a flash of silver, Little Flower’s front paw deftly landed on the grill. By this time, the temperature near the grill had also become very high, scalding it as it yowled in pain.
This guy still couldn’t bring itself to pull its paw away, shamelessly stretching further to poke at the oven. Mo Yan, seated and unable to prevent it in time, heard a pitiful "ow" as the creature hurriedly withdrew its paw, hopping and jumping about on the ground, clearly burned severely.
"Oww—oww—" I’m scorched to death, scorched to death! Little Flower’s pain was so intense that tears were streaming from its eyes.
Following a step behind was Dabai, who looked at this embarrassing performance with thick disdain in its cool gaze. Yet, unconsciously, all four of its legs moved closer to the grill, its front paws restlessly shifting before, ultimately, reason triumphed over the temptation of the delicious scents, and it slowly backed away. Settling next to Mao Tuan, Dabai watched gleefully as the unfortunate Little Flower bounced around.
The Golden Beast, Black Cloud Leopard, and Red Python also returned, quite accustomed to Little Flower’s wailing. They found a cool spot to lie down, occasionally sniffing the air, waiting for the moment when the mooncakes were ready.
Mo Yan found the spectacle distressing yet amusing. She picked up Little Flower’s paw, seeing that the pad had been burned and was swelling visibly at an alarming rate. She quickly directed Lixiu to keep an eye on the fire while she fetched a half block of unused ice from the cellar and placed Little Flower’s burned paw on it.
