Xu Youliang wanted to trick Dou Dou and Duoduo into revealing their secret of becoming human, but he couldn't just ask directly; there had to be a gradual process.
So he feigned confusion and questioned them, because the evidence of shadows was right there, even if the two little ones denied it, they couldn't really deny it.
And based on what he knew about the two little kids, they were quite honest and wouldn't lie or deceive.
But now, when he asked the question, unexpectedly, both of them shook their heads in unison.
"No?"
Xu Youliang's voice rose significantly, feeling a sense of anger from being deceived.
He liked deceiving people but didn't like being deceived by others.
"But you clearly have shadows."
"It's not only humans who have shadows," Duoduo said.
But she still caught the odd tone in Xu Youliang's voice and stared at him intently.
Xu Youliang, worried that they might see through him, forced a smile and asked, "Then what is it?"
