Jane Sampson bent down, and the little fellow made a "mwah" sound as he gave her a kiss on the face. Then, he stood there holding onto her, laughing foolishly.
James Black heard the sound, turned his head, and saw the little fellow hugging Jane and stealing kisses. Afterward, the child just stood there giggling like a little fool.
James took two steps back, reached out directly, grabbed the little fellow, and handed him back to Oliver Black, with a slightly displeased tone, "Keep an eye on your kid."
Oliver Black and his wife stood there shaking their heads repeatedly, "Peter Gingery says you're a jealous old pine tree brewing vinegar, and I thought he was exaggerating. Turns out, that description isn't even close!"
James's face remained unchanged, as if he hadn't heard at all. He reached out, grabbed Jane's hand, leading her to the tea table, pressed her down into a seat, and started preparing to brew tea for her.
