Wen Shi grinned broadly and announced joyfully to Yi Chichi, "There'll be big meat to eat tomorrow."
Yi Chichi, "Did you spot the prey?"
"No, but we put some bean paste in the trap."
Niu Niu was puzzled, "Why put bean paste? It's such a waste, people don't even have enough to eat."
Kang Youxin knew the reason but he tends to speak in a way that makes people anxious, so he opened his mouth but swallowed back his words, leaving it to Wen Shi to explain.
"People can't live without salt, and neither can animals."
He got into a talkative mood and started giving Niu Niu a live lesson, discussing everything from animal traits to dietary habits, and the unique preferences certain animals have for specific foods.
At first, Niu Niu listened with great interest, her expression giving Yi Chichi and the others a sense of wonder at how fascinating the world could be.
But as she kept listening, her expression began to turn blank.
Then it became empty.
Yi Chichi, "..."
