Full of food and wine, twilight had settled in. Gu YuMian was satisfied with his own food. He sat cross-legged on the mat, and the little snow leopard nestled in his arms. He dozed off without moving his tail.

The baby panda was at a very active age lately. He probed under the wooden table and came out with a bowl that he had accidentally dropped. He put the empty glass bowl on his head and looked up curiously. Through the pattern of the glass bowl and the transparent dome of the sunroom, he saw stars all over the sky in the midsummer night.

The baby panda was dazed with his round eyes widening a little bit.

There were stars in the bowl!

He watched for another half-minute to confirm that the stars were still in there, and then offered his treasured empty bowl to Gu YuMian, and tried to put his chubby self and bowl into Gu YuMian’s arms, whining twice.

Gu YuMian, after all, was a person who had raised the two wok babies from Big Wok. He soon understood the meaning little Tangyuan wanted to say: This bowl is very good-looking. It is a good thing for you.

He couldn’t help but touch the baby panda’s head, put the ordinary glass bowl he bought from Star Network into a box, and put it in the valuables cabinet at home. The things in the cupboard may not be very expensive, but they were all important to Gu YuMian. They were only for the three of them.

For example, his small half-bag of tea, the hairball made of the silver-white hair that the snow leopard dropped when Gu YuMian first combed his hair, the optical computer that the baby panda brought when he came, and so on. Now there was another item in it.

The baby panda was very happy. He liked to give all his valuables to Gu YuMian.

The little snow leopard was very dissatisfied. But he couldn’t figure out what he could do to make Gu YuMian feel happy. Gu YuMian only seemed to get happier at the stupider things he did. He was very depressed and bit his tail and lay down.

After a while, he reacted and went stiff. He quietly loosened his tail and curled up to hide.

Gu YuMian, “……” He came back to the sunroom just in time to see it.

Help! The two babies in the family were lovely. Gu YuMian felt that he was also critically hit and needed a blood transfusion.

[Little Game Enthusiast: Is this an albino species of leopard? Just lovely! Hahaha!]

[A Piece of Breeze Coos: Anchor’s attitude towards children is so equal and respectful. It’s because they’re children that many don’t take them seriously. It’s too much for me.]

[There’s a Family in the Mine: I love the atmosphere of the MianMian’s family so much! Wuwu! I feel very free and happy every day. I don’t want to live in the mine. How many mines does the Mianmian family need to buy me?]

“Well…” Gu YuMian coughed, “Let’s finish the barbecue with a rice cake.”

This was Gu YuMian’s favorite way of eating and it was not authentic or anything. He didn’t like most of the popular rice cakes on the market. He went out once in a while to have a barbecue and baked two rice cakes at the end. He was shocked by their delicious taste. And when it was hot, it was delicious. When it was cold, it was not bad. It could be a snack made at any time.
