Aunt Xiao looked at him with an even more pained expression. "You poor little baby."
"AWOO~" Shi Tou cooperatively licked her hand.
Bai Jiao's mouth twitched. 'A puppy-baby half as tall as a person?'
"No, no, Aunt Xiao. What I mean is, Shi Tou is a new breed developed in a lab. He can eat anything—whatever humans can eat, he can eat too!"
She couldn't tell anyone about the Jade Pendant Space just yet, so she had to make something up.
Aunt Xiao looked at Shi Tou with wonder. "Looking closely, he really does look different from a normal dog. Better, and sturdier. I thought he was just well-fed, but I didn't expect him to be a different breed."
"Is this dog okay?" she asked again, hesitating.
"He's fine!" Bai Jiao shook her head. "He's even healthier and will live longer than a regular puppy."
Among everyone in the family who had drunk the Spiritual Spring Water, he was the one who had grown the best and benefited the most.
