The sky gradually darkened.
Two little beans hid in a cool cave.
The cave entrance was not deep, just enough for two little beans to conceal themselves.
The Little Princess had eaten the last candied fruit and the second-to-last piece of osmanthus candy.
The two little beans' clothes were torn and their faces were dirty; where could one see the semblance of noble Clan School students?
If they walked onto the Avenue, they were likely to be mistaken for little vagrants from who knows where.
The two little beans sat with their backs against the wall.
Xiao Jingkong sat on the outside, shielding the Little Princess with his body on the inside.
"Are you still hungry?" Xiao Jingkong asked her.
The Little Princess nodded then quickly shook her head and swallowed her saliva, saying, "Not hungry."
As soon as her words fell, her stomach started growling.
She covered her little belly and whispered, "I didn't tell it to growl; it did it on its own."
