章 50: You can say that

"You made it."

Penny almost wept when the boy smiled at her. This little great aunt felt so remorseful she could cry a river. What a precious child.

"Did you bring her?" he asked, snapping her attention back to him. 

She smiled at him apologetically and nodded. "Wait here." 

Having said that, Penny quickly pulled herself out of the bush. She picked up her pets and crawled her way in like a soldier crawling across some unexplored terrain. In no time, the two of them sat opposite each other with Chunchun in the middle. 

"She looks more healthy now," said the boy as he tickled Chunchun's chin with his index. "I'm so glad she's doing better."

Penny smiled proudly, respecting this guy's time with Chunchun. He was the one who found her, after all.

As Chunchun nuzzled the boy, he couldn't help but glance at the other pet carrier. He furrowed his brows and lowered his head, only to see it eating a slice of apple.
