However, in the dim night, Ruan Jiaojiao didn't notice his unusual behavior.
The two of them walked and stopped along the way, chatting occasionally, and soon reached the road at the corner of the Ruan Family's villa.
Ruan Jiaojiao had good eyesight and spotted a yellow-orange figure jumping down from her home's wall from a distance, then strutting towards them.
As it got closer, Ruan Jiaojiao clearly saw that it was holding another chicken leg in its mouth!
And behind the wall, the mournful howling was almost ear-piercing, obviously annoyed and embarrassed after repeatedly having its chicken leg stolen.
"Sanmao?" Ruan Jiaojiao heard the urgent howling from inside the wall and looked at Sanmao, who had stopped upon seeing them, squatting down curiously.
Sanmao wasn't particularly close to the Ruan Family, but it was fond of Ruan Jiaojiao.
Ruan Jiaojiao squatted down to pet it, and it stood obediently but did not let go of the chicken leg in its mouth.
