Upon hearing Professor Hao's voice, the four furry balls immediately hid behind Xia Yue, concealing their presence so as not to be seen.
"Good morning, Professor Hao. I just came to visit the plantation area and unexpectedly found these four adorable little critters munching on cucumbers. Watching them eat so heartily, I couldn't resist picking a cucumber for myself and joining them." Xia Yue said with a smile.
"Were they a macaque, a bear cub, a rabbit, and a leopard cub?" Professor Hao asked.
"You knew?" said Xia Yue in surprise.
"Yes, they've been coming around for a while now. We knew they belonged to Ziluo and as they didn't cause any harm, only stealing a bit of food, we didn't mind them."
"A while back, the leopard cub led the other three to the farming area, intending to chase the chickens there. But the chickens gave chase back and they ended up running back here. From then on, they have been frequenting this place." Professor Hao said with a laugh.
