The little one crawled to the front of the bed. She craned her neck but still couldn't see the person on it. HUFFING AND PUFFING, she pushed a stool over and climbed up. Using the stool's height, she struggled her way onto the bed.
"GAH GAH, GAH GAH."
Her chubby little head nuzzled against Sangqi.
As the little one grew bigger, Sangqi was one of the few who could still carry her easily. Sangqi hadn't come to her room to hold her today, which was unusual for her. She'd followed his scent and crawled all the way here.
"Gah gah?"
She nuzzled him several times, but her brother didn't react. The little tiger cub plopped down on the bed, blinking her big, confused eyes.
Reflected in her bright, golden pupils were faint black tendrils. The little tiger cub blinked curiously. She found these things seeping out of Sangqi's body very novel.
"Huh?"
The little one tilted her chubby head and reached out a tender little finger, snatching one of the escaping black tendrils.
