"Naming it?"
Lu Qing wiped his hands.
"Yeah, the little beast and us are friends now, and all my friends have names, like Big Girl, Little Houtou; they all have their own names!" Little Yan counted on her fingers, earnestly adding, "So the little beast should have its own name too."
"Is calling it 'little beast' not good?"
"'Little beast' doesn't sound nice, and there are lots of animals called little beasts. We need to come up with something special," the little one shook her head.
Lu Qing really wanted to say that even names like Big Girl, Little Houtou were pretty commonplace outside.
He thought for a moment, seeing the black little beast peering curiously into the kitchen from outside.
He asked, "Little thing, what about you? Do you want a name too?"
The black little beast's eyes showed a moment of contemplation, then it nodded.
"Brother, look, the little beast wants to have its own name too," Little Yan said happily.
"Since that's the case, then let's pick one."
