Not only that, it even turned around and buried the fruit with its hind legs.

After that, the little beast put down its paws that were covering its nose.
“Hahaha.”
Xia Muqing was amused by the little beast’s reaction and was also surprised by its human behavior.
She had never encountered such an animal before.
In her previous life, Xia Muqing had always wanted to raise a small animal.
But she couldn’t because of her job.
Looking at this little beast now, Xia Muqing suddenly had a thought.
“Do you want to eat roasted meat, puppy?”
Xia Muqing’s seductive voice sounded.
However, she didn’t expect the little beast to protest.
Squeak squeak.
These two sounds fully expressed its anger.

Xia Muqing was stunned. It’s reaction was so drastic. Did it have an owner?
That would be tricky.
If it really had a master, she would have to bear with the pain and give it up.
“This is for you.”
Xia Muqing dismissed that thought.
Seeing how cute it was, she offered it a piece of roasted meat.

The little beast studied the roasted meat warily. There was desire in its eyes, but it took a step back.
Xia Muqing immediately understood what it was thinking.
She retracted the roasted meat and took a bite in front of the little beast before offering it again.
Before the meat reached its mouth this time, the roasted meat on the stick was gone.
The little beast gazed at Xia Muqing in confusion. It didn’t know why Xia Muqing would give it meat to eat after playing a trick on it earlier on.
“If you don’t ask before you take something, that’s stealing. I offered the meat to you just now.”
Xia Muqing could tell that the little beast was puzzled and explained calmly.
Squeak.
The little beast responded. She didn’t know if it understood her.
It sat on the ground gracefully and licked its paws gently.

Its gaze was fixated on the meat on the grill.
When it couldn’t endure any longer, it quietly placed a paw on the roasted meat.
Slap!
Squeak.
Xia Muqing used a stick to tap on the little beast’s paws, causing it to cry out in dissatisfaction.
“Have you forgotten what I just said?”
Squeak.
The little beast lowered its head, looking like it was admitting its mistake.
In the next moment, it did the same thing again. It dashed and placed its paws on the grill and froze after taking a bite.
When it returned to its original spot, it started vomiting.
This one smelled worse than the first one.
It vomited until its eyes were red and its entire body collapsed onto the ground.
It didn’t forget to bury the meat that it had just spat out.
Xia Muqing nodded in approval as she chewed the roasted meat.
This was a hygienic puppy.
Xia Muqing firmly believed that this little beast was a puppy.
The main reason was because it looked like a Pomeranian.

Both had round faces.
The little beast looked at Xia Muqing sadly. How did this human know which stick it would steal?
Watching Xia Muqing eat the roasted meat, the little beast felt that this human was too evil!
“Little dog, where’s your master?”
Squeak squeak squeak—
The weak little beast suddenly regained its strength.
It growled at Xia Muqing.
Xia Muqing was puzzled.
Recalling what she had just said, she repeated tentatively, “Puppy?”
Squeak squeak—
This time, it made longer sounds.
Its eyes were filled with humiliation and indignation.
Xia Muqing understood now. So this little fellow wasn’t angry because it had a master, instead it was angry because she had called it a puppy.
That meant she had a chance.
Xia Muqing was delighted.
Putting on her best attitude, she offered a piece of roasted meat to the little beast.
“Don’t be angry anymore. I’ll offer you some roasted meat as an apology, okay?”
Without waiting for it to suspect anything, Xia Muqing took a bite of the roasted meat.
The little beast grunted and lowered its head to finish the roasted meat.
It continued to accuse Xia Muqing angrily by making sounds.
Xia Muqing was speechless.
“What sort of animal are you?”
Xia Muqing looked around but she still couldn’t figure it out.
