It was deep into the night when Li Si and Leng Mochen brought Buding back from the old house to their own home.
After each had finished washing up, Li Si went to the children's room to check on her already sleeping son and comfort the sulking Xiao Guai.
Xiao Guai's big eyes looked pitifully at Li Si, scratching the back of its head with a toothy grin. Despite its considerable weight, its endearing innocence made it very lovable.
"Xiao Guai! Why are you still unhappy?"
Li Si roughly guessed that Xiao Guai might be upset because they all left without taking it along.
Xiao Guai thumped its chest, expressing its dissatisfaction.
Li Si patted its furry head, glanced at her sprawled-out sleeping son, and softly said, "Today, because it was a crowded banquet, we couldn't take you along! But don't worry, soon, we'll definitely bring you out to play, okay?"
Under Li Si's gentle consolation, Xiao Guai finally calmed down.
