"Weren't you saying it tasted like spinach? How could it be bitter?"
"Raw... spinach."
Little Taotie blinked: "Can spinach be eaten raw? Have you ever eaten raw spinach?"
Hua Jinyan: "It has the unique flavor of cooked spinach, but with a bitter raw taste. I think it's raw spinach, with the candy's sweetness overshadowed by bitterness, it's very astringent."
Little Taotie stepped back: "Why would a vengeful spirit like raw spinach?"
Since eating the Resentful Spirit Candy, Little Taotie had also had some missteps, having once tasted spicy candy with a heat that overpowered any sweetness, showing that the spirit had loved spicy food when alive.
Although Little Taotie was overwhelmed by the spicy candy, she handled it well, needing only to drink a lot of water. Little Taotie was someone naturally unafraid of spice—a spicy girl indeed.
But she never expected that besides spicy candy, there would also be bitter raw spinach candy!
