Upon turning his head, Baili An, who had walked away with the girl on his back, had at some point looped back and was now staring at Shou with an open and candid expression.
Shou felt so guilty that his eyes couldn't stop darting around, and with a deceiving clumsiness akin to covering his own ears while stealing a bell, he kicked at the vines with his small feet, attempting to cover the hand underneath.
Baili An raised an eyebrow and chuckled, squatting down and nudging the little one's plump feet, saying, "Are you a cat? Are you planning to dig a hole and bury it?"
His face was serious as he teased, "But I have seen that you've produced nothing, what is there for you to bury?"
Now, there was no way to keep it hidden anymore.
With the little feet pushed aside, the sight of the hand almost completely dragged under by the Demon Vine surprised Baili An for an instant, but he quickly regained his composure.
