Dou Dou's laughter drifted far into the night of the grassland, but his steps intentionally slowed down. He could have transformed into a Yin Wind and evaded instantly, but he left a bit of room for Tang Tang to happily chase after him.
Finally, Tang Tang caught up with her little legs fluttering, but instead of the expected tumble and play, she opened her small arms and gave Dou Dou a solid hug, squeezing him so tightly he almost couldn't breathe.
"Han~"
Tang Tang grinned foolishly, her eyes curving into crescents, and swiftly reached into her pocket to rummage around, pulling out half a wrinkled tangerine.
But the moment she took it out, she froze.
The tangerine had already rotted, with only the very middle segment barely staying intact, and the sticky juice dripped through her fingers, making her hands smell sweet and tangy.
"Oh~"
