Big White Wolf was somewhat disdainful, "Such a tiny thing, not even enough to get stuck in my teeth, and we each get half?"
As if understanding Big White Wolf’s look, Little Taotie hummed, "You don’t understand! This isn’t just any candy!"
Little Taotie tilted her head and thought before explaining, "Do you know what compressed biscuits are?"
Big White Wolf gave her a sideways glance, "I am an enlightened wolf! Of course, I know!"
"My appetite is very big, and although many things seem to never fill my stomach, it’s different when I eat Evil Spirit Chocolate and Resentment Candy! It’s like eating compressed biscuits that make you feel full; a small piece is equal to lots and lots of candy!"
Big White Wolf looked at her skeptically, "Human cub’s brain must have been kicked by a donkey, right?"
"You don’t believe it?"
"Just eat it! Then you’ll believe!"
Little Taotie placed the candy in her palm, and with her other hand, she made a chopping gesture, splitting the candy perfectly in half, as smoothly as if cut by a knife.
Little Taotie proudly curled her lips, "I’ll untie you; just don’t bite me, okay?"
Big White Wolf nodded his big head.
Little Taotie patted its head, touched the little white flower, and seeing that Little Flower was no longer crying but swaying with the wind, she couldn’t help but giggle.
Big White Wolf gave Little Taotie a bewildered look: Did that human cub really get her brain kicked by a donkey?
Little Taotie untied the bow, and Big White Wolf felt its mouth numb, struggling even to open it.
Little Taotie ate half of the candy herself, her eyes curving happily, "It’s strawberry flavored!"
She stuffed the other half into Big White Wolf’s mouth, giggling, "Try it, it’s delicious!"
If anyone saw this scene, they would surely scream, as the little girl’s hand was almost inside the wolf’s mouth.
Big White Wolf licked the girl’s fingers, didn’t bite, and waited for her to pull back her hand before chewing the content in its mouth, a tiny piece, seemingly bland, but unexpectedly...
Big White Wolf’s eyes brightened more and more, tasting a flavor it had never experienced before!
"It’s delicious! So delicious!"
The voice came out sharply, stunning both the person and the wolf at the scene.
Both the human and the wolf stared in astonishment.
After a long while, Big White Wolf snapped back to reality, wanting to howl, but instead spoke human words, "Heaven, I almost thought I was so formidable that I could speak human language! Eh?"
As they made eye contact, Little Taotie came back to her senses, hugged Big White Wolf’s "Dog Head" excitedly, "So it turns out wolves can speak human language after eating Resentment Candy, how amazing!"
Big White Wolf was shocked, tremblingly said, "I...can really speak human language?"
I’m not turning into a human, am I?
I remember that old man and the Masked Man wanted to turn us into humans!
At that time, they could not understand our wolfish conversation; all my wolf friends and I were cursing them for their absurd ideas, as if their brains had been kicked by a donkey.
We have such powerful limbs and such sleek fur, why would we want to become thin-limbed, bald humans?
"No!" Big White Wolf felt sorrow welling up, tears flowing, "I don’t want to become a human!"
"Are you turning into a human?" Little Taotie tilted her head, her look filled with confusion.
Big White Wolf pressed on, "Cub, what on earth did you feed me! Oh, can I throw it up?"
Big White Wolf tried to vomit, but its stomach was empty, having not eaten for two days and nights, and the half piece of candy had long since been digested.
"No, I don’t want to turn into a hairless two-legged beast!"
Little Taotie looked at it, then at herself, her mind full of question marks: Two-legged beast?
"Cub, you better run; I need to go and die." Big White Wolf hung its head, looking like it was ready to die, and walked towards the light.
