"Huh?" The girl in the yellow dress blinked.
"Who told you snakes like to eat grapes?" Ah Qing pinched the little girl's nose again.
"I'm not a doll... Ms. Qing, please don't always pinch my face." The girl in the yellow dress squirmed and then said, "My sister always says so, and besides, under the grapevine in our town, don't we always see long... snakes?"
She wanted to say 'worms' initially, but seeing Ah Qing, she dared not say it.
"Even that snake you keep, Xiaoqing, likes to coil under the grapevine. I almost stepped on it a few times while passing by." The girl in the yellow dress nodded. "So, people thought you might like eating them too."
"..." Ah Qing's eye twitched slightly.
What could she say?
The helplessness one feels with ordinary girls was also one of the pleasures she found at the Flower Moon Building.
Ah Qing explained, "Staying under the grapevine is just to cool off..."
