Hai Dongqing is, after all, not a domesticated bird, but rather a wild creature, and when it attacks, it doesn't peck like an angry chick.
It lunged into the girl's bamboo hat, opened its rigid beak, and aimed a brutal peck at the girl's eyes!
The girl instinctively raised her hand to block, managing to protect her eyes, but exposing her neck. Hai Dongqing promptly bit down on the girl's neck!
"Ah——"
The girl screamed in pain, flailing her arms in panic. Although she managed to shake off Hai Dongqing, her hat was also knocked off in the process.
Xiao Jingkong turned his head at the sound and looked at the chaos. He then looked at the girl's face, puzzled.
The neighbours, hearing the commotion, came out of their homes in droves.
"What's going on?"
"What happened?"
"Who is it?"
Seeing the sudden influx of people, the girl dropped her quarrel with Xiao Jingkong, covered her face with her sleeve, and fled in a panic.
