In the depths of Mingtang Mountain.
At dusk.
"Squeak squeak!"
The Double-eyed Mouse, like a little rooster with puffed-up feathers, bared its teeth and snarled at the Little Dream Fox, scaring the latter into cowering and not daring to move.
"Stop that!"
"Scare it again, and I won't feed you anymore."
Chen Shaohu reprimanded sharply and gave a flick of his toes, sending the little mouse flying far away.
"Ooh ooh~"
The Little Dream Fox was a mischievous creature itself. Seeing its nemesis get scolded and kicked, its face scrunched up as it burst into a smile, its eyes and brows disappearing into laughter.
The enraged little mouse was fuming, about to explode with anger.
It spun around a few times but didn't dare to disobey Chen Shaohu. It dashed off to perch silently on a beam, stewing in its frustration.
