"I don't understand you... you're either a cute little rabbit or a demon pretending to be one. Just pick a side already, will you?" Wen Ran muttered as he accepted the paw tap with a sigh. It didn't hurt at all—far from it. Her soft little paw was more like a warm cotton ball brushing against his cheek, fluffy and harmless, almost soothing in a weird way. He didn't want to admit it, but it actually felt kind of nice.
He gently brushed Xiao Mo off his lap and stood up, his eyes locking on the nest high above like a skilled thief memorizing the path to the emperor's vault. The wind whispered through the leaves, but in his chest, tension simmered like a blade pressed to the throat.
"That bastard bird... has five of my fruits, just sitting there like it owns the damn place," he muttered, the corner of his mouth twitching with suppressed rage.
If I charge in now, I'll die.If I try to sneak up, I'll still die.If I wait, it'll eat them all one by one… and I'll die on the inside.
