Pepsi pouted. "Yes!"
Si Bai turned pale and began to cough violently.
Mrs. Si was worried, but Si Bai said, "Can you give us a moment, please?"
The grownups exchanged looks, then left the room as requested, leaving the two kids to themselves.
"I'm sorry," Si Bai apologized. "It was my fault that day."
"Of course it was!" Pepsi stood her ground. "You lied to me!"
Si Bai blushed. He had indeed tricked Pepsi and kissed her…
He had never expected the little girl to stay angry for this long.
Pepsi sounded aggrieved. "You promised! You said you'd come after I ate all the candy! I ate them all that night! My tummy ached for two days! But you didn't come…"
Si Bai apologized involuntarily. "I'm sorry. It was all my fault."
… Wait. What?!
"You finished all of it in one night?" Si Bai asked in disbelief.
Pepsi nodded. "That's right. I worked hard!"
Si Bai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The little glutton!
