Little Fox was awakened, not yet understanding the situation, but someone in the family was alert. Having heard Wen Yan specifically mention Little Fox, it meant nothing had been told to Little Fox, allowing him to judge for himself first. Telling a child about reason is actually futile, as they may not understand or remember the lesson; a painful experience through an ordeal, however, becomes a lesson learned after just once.
In the Wenyan Family, there were little ones, as well as those who had suffered and experienced the warmth and coldness of human relationships; it wasn't that Wen Yan's absence would lead to panic when faced with trouble. Even Sparrow Cat, lazy to death, was like that only because it was certain someone else would shoulder the burden for it; when it was on its own in a safe environment and didn't need to worry, it would just lie flat. Without Wen Yan, Sparrow Cat started to take charge.
