Chapter 1216: Chapter 383: Shadow, Scalding_4

Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives—in a flash of silver, Little Flower’s front paw deftly landed on the grill. By this time, the temperature near the grill had also become very high, scalding it as it yowled in pain.

This guy still couldn’t bring itself to pull its paw away, shamelessly stretching further to poke at the oven. Mo Yan, seated and unable to prevent it in time, heard a pitiful "ow" as the creature hurriedly withdrew its paw, hopping and jumping about on the ground, clearly burned severely.

"Oww—oww—" I’m scorched to death, scorched to death! Little Flower’s pain was so intense that tears were streaming from its eyes.

Following a step behind was Dabai, who looked at this embarrassing performance with thick disdain in its cool gaze. Yet, unconsciously, all four of its legs moved closer to the grill, its front paws restlessly shifting before, ultimately, reason triumphed over the temptation of the delicious scents, and it slowly backed away. Settling next to Mao Tuan, Dabai watched gleefully as the unfortunate Little Flower bounced around.

The Golden Beast, Black Cloud Leopard, and Red Python also returned, quite accustomed to Little Flower’s wailing. They found a cool spot to lie down, occasionally sniffing the air, waiting for the moment when the mooncakes were ready.

Mo Yan found the spectacle distressing yet amusing. She picked up Little Flower’s paw, seeing that the pad had been burned and was swelling visibly at an alarming rate. She quickly directed Lixiu to keep an eye on the fire while she fetched a half block of unused ice from the cellar and placed Little Flower’s burned paw on it.

The ice eased the pain on its paw, and Little Flower’s cries slowly subsided. Looking at Mo Yan with gratitude, it extended its pink tongue to tenderly lick her hand, pathetically whining, "Yanyan, adversity reveals true friends. In my hour of need, it’s you who treats me best. I should bear you monkeys!"

Without Xue tuanzi there to translate, Mo Yan couldn’t understand Little Flower’s thoughts and assumed it knew it had done wrong. She pointed her finger and poked its head firmly, "For your gluttony, for your mischief, if you dare to behave so recklessly again, I won’t take you to the city tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Little Flower, without a care for its still throbbing paw, sprang upright and wrapped its front paws tightly around Mo Yan’s neck, crying out desperately,

Yanyan, Yanyan, I was wrong, I truly was. Please take me with you!

"Pah, pah pah, Little Flower, get your paws off me!"

Standing erect, Little Flower towered over three meters tall. Caught unawares, Mo Yan’s face was buried in its thick fur, prompting her to involuntarily scream after swallowing a mouthful of wolf hair.

Realizing it had made another mistake, Little Flower quickly removed its paws from Mo Yan’s shoulders. As soon as its paws touched the ground, the pain from the burn twisted its wolfish features. It yelped in agony and hurriedly placed its paws back on the ice.

For the following half hour, Little Flower was disciplined by Mo Yan as though it were her grandchild, standing in the corner with its tail painted a mournful green, much like a schoolchild who had done wrong. Mo Yan said nothing, and it dared not move, with only itself knowing what it was thinking.

The interaction between the human and the beast amused Xin Er and the others tremendously. Especially when the freshly baked mooncakes came out batch by batch, and the other five beasts devoured them joyfully. Little Flower’s pathetic look, yearning to join yet deterred by Mo Yan’s threats, made them laugh the entire afternoon.
