He had just chilled the fruits in the cold stream, so they were perfect to eat now. He couldn't let these troubling matters delay such an important thing as his little companion eating fruit.
When he returned to the cabin, Ji Nuan was sleeping. There was an additional pen behind the house, presumably for the little female to raise some Giggle Beasts or some small wild animals again.
Throwing the Giggle Beast he was carrying into the pen, the fruits in the basket scraped against the roof, and only then did Xiu Yan pick up the branch to continue the project the little female hadn't finished yet.
After Ji Nuan woke up from a wonderful nap, she smelled an incredibly enticing fruity aroma.
She looked around the cabin and indeed saw the basket scraping against the roof.
Happily, she ran over to pick up the basket, and the fruits inside were not too warm, with a slight coolness to the touch.
