Chapter 1138 Gift
Finally, the human cub broke the promise.
It is obviously so happy and looking forward to it.
Even though a long time has passed, I still can't let go of Yu Hu when I think of her again.
Bad-keeping human cubs.
A promise was made casually, but completely forgotten in the blink of an eye.
There was a bit of indifference in Yihu's eyes.
Maybe it was wrong to trust a human cub in the first place.
Maybe there's something wrong with your brain?
Just
It really wants a Christmas gift of its own.
Yihu, who originally wanted to answer this human question, closed her somewhat open mouth again.
It doesn't like humans who don't keep their word.
……
Looking at the monster who turned his head and seemed a bit angry for some reason, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but slightly raised the corners of his mouth, even though it was a bit inappropriate.
"Then I'll pick one for you."
As expected, Yihu turned her head.
What was a bit surprising were the words from Yi Hu's mouth.
"妦HU~"
fraud!
The monster seemed a little annoyed at his subconscious reaction of expectations. It muttered angrily, and then looked at the gifts under the Christmas tree over there.
There are fewer and fewer gifts.
There was anxiety and sadness in its eyes.
……
fraud?
Xiao Xiao was thoughtful.
This monster's vague rejection of humans...is it because...it has been deceived by humans?
He didn't rush to get to the bottom of it, but smiled slightly and said, "Then I'll just choose."
"Wait for me."
……
Xiao Xiao walked out.
Yihu hesitated for a while and looked over from the corner of her eyes.
Seeing this human being walking towards the huge Christmas tree, it tilted its head and followed the human's back subconsciously.
But I saw this human being walked straight past the Christmas tree, without stopping, but continued walking forward.
Then, the human figure disappeared behind the glass door that opened automatically.
Yu Hu blinked, "...Liar."
……
Xiao Xiao walked into the mall and paused slightly. He really didn't know what to buy.
He slowly looked in front of various shops.
Suddenly, the tip of his nose moved.
Well, no need to hesitate.
"Dingling bell~"
“Welcome next time.”
Xiao Xiao walked out of the colorful and tempting dessert shop holding a large bag of cakes.
……
Wu Hu's eyes suddenly widened.
The already round eyes became even rounder.
The human came out again.
Then its expression froze, and it became angry at its unconscious attention to this human being.
What is it expecting?
……
Even though she was thinking this, Yihu's eyes never left this human being.
It watched the human walk toward the giant Christmas tree.
Just when it thought the human was going to continue walking past the huge Christmas tree, the human stopped.
Yihu's two front legs were slightly bent and her body leaned forward.
I don’t know whether it’s because he leaned out a little bit so that the lights on both sides fell into Yihu’s eyes, or because of the emotional changes in Yihu’s eyes, the monster’s wide-open eyes shone slightly.
It watched as the human handed something to the human with a white beard and dressed in bright red.
There is a small creature that looks like it on the shoulder of a white-bearded human.
Not a living thing.
The horns on the little creature's head are like tree branches.
From time to time, it would collide with the white ball hanging from the red hat on the head of the white-bearded human.
……
Yihu retracted her gaze from the white ball, and when she looked at the human again, she saw him pointing at a gift. It narrowed its eyes slightly, and it was a gift wrapped in paper with a red background and a white snowflake pattern.
There was also a bouquet of mistletoe stuck under the golden ribbon.
……
It watched the white-bearded human pick up the gift and handed it to the human, and said the words it had heard many times, "I wish you a Merry Christmas."
The human took the gift.
Because the human's back was turned to it, it couldn't see his expression. It could only hear him saying something it had heard many times, "Thank you."
"Merry Christmas."
……
Sensing that the human turned around, Yihu retracted her gaze in a panic.
Even the body that was leaning out shrank back slightly.
Try your best to act like it hasn’t seen anything or knows anything,
Just from the corner of his eye, he was still paying attention to that human being.
It saw the human being walking towards it.
Its body couldn't help but feel a little stiff.
It thought of the human who asked it before, "Which one do you like best?"
……
"Yuhu, Merry Christmas,"
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows were slightly curved, and he handed the gift in his hand to the direction of the monster who was holding on and did not turn around.
He said no more.
The scene fell into silence for a while.
Yihu stared forward, and another gift was held in the hand of the white-bearded human.
One, two, three...
It counts how many presents are left under the Christmas tree.
Only five? !
Ah, only four left!
Seeing the white-bearded human extending his hand again, Yihu almost wanted to rush forward and stop him.
Maybe humans are just as anxious as it is.
The last four gifts were given away by the white-bearded human in just a blink of an eye.
The empty Christmas tree is a little less lively and a little more quiet.
The snow is still falling.
Snowflakes swirled down.
It adds a bit of aesthetic atmosphere to the already festive street tonight.
A snowflake fell on Yihu's nose.
A chill spread across the air.
Its eyes drooped, staring at the snowflakes that turned into shallow water stains.
Another snowflake fell on its nose.
After being stunned for a while, it suddenly woke up and turned its head to look over.
The next second, it met a pair of smiling eyes.
It looked anxious for a moment, not knowing how to react.
It was relieved that the human hadn't left yet.
However, his nervousness just now was clearly revealed, but it made him feel very embarrassed and slightly embarrassed.
……
Xiao Xiao's expression remained unchanged. He was not frightened by the monster's sudden movement, nor did he make an expression that would make the monster feel more embarrassed or angry. He just stretched out the hand holding the gift as before, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "I hope you will like this." Gift.”
"I don't know what's inside."
"But I think it will be a surprise."
……
Yihu stared at the gift in front of her for a while.
Whether it's the red snowflake-patterned packaging, the golden ribbon, or the green mistletoe inserted under the ribbon, these make his eyes light up uncontrollably.
Gift.
What a gift indeed.
The Christmas gift it always wanted...
Yihu couldn't help but stretch out her hoof and slowly approach the gift.
Xiao Xiao did not move and allowed the monster to move cautiously.
This gift box is not very big, and he also considered the problem of monsters carrying it.
Although maybe he was overthinking it.
