Zayden looked at his lollipop and then at Joy’s. He pouted unhappily.
Why did I get the wolf? I like the one Joy has too!
Joy was an observant child, and she noticed Zayden was unhappy. She asked, “Do you want mine?”
Zayden blinked and nodded.
“I’ll exchange it with you then,” Joy offered.
She then smiled cheekily and said, “The wolf catches the sheep, so mine is better than yours. Mine is
the best!”
The best?
Zayden stared at the sheep lollipop in his hand and looked a little lost. He couldn’t believe he had just
exchanged the best for this. His heart wavered. He wanted the best too.
He stared at the wolf lollipop in Joy’s hand and wondered how he should get it back.
Davin sighed internally at this sight. He wished his son could be a little more decisive instead.
There must be a reason for Joy to say something like this.
He cleared his throat and said to Zayden, “Son, listen to me. The wolf never managed to catch the
sheep. You got the sheep, and that means you got the smartest one!”
Zayden gave that a thought and decided that his words made sense. He then gave Joy a smug look.
“Your wolf is dumb!”
Joy pouted. “Even if it’s a dumb wolf, it can still eat your sheep. But your sheep can never eat my wolf.
My wolf can chase your sheep everywhere. Hmph. Mine is still more powerful than yours.”
Is that so? Joy makes sense too.
“Daddy, the wolf eats the sheep. I want the wolf!” Zayden started throwing a tantrum.
Davin sighed. “Son, the wolf isn’t more powerful. Your mom is the Sheep. If you don’t trust me, you can
ask her if she’s more powerful than the wolf.”
Is Mommy a sheep?
Zayden stared at Sheila with his wide eyes. But she doesn’t look like a sheep.
Sheila glared at Davin. “Son, don’t listen to your dad. I’m not a sheep. If you like the wolf that much,
you can ask Joy to exchange it with you. Is that okay?”
Zayden nodded vigorously.
Sheila asked pleasantly, “Joy, can you exchange your lollipop with Zayden? I’ll get you a treat in
return.”
Joy thought about it for a while before handing the lollipop to Zayden. “Sure.”
After exchanging, Joy looked at her sheep lollipop and then sneaked a glance at Zayden with a
mischievous glint in her eyes.
The lollipop with the sheep was orange-flavored, and the lollipop with the wolf was mint-flavored. She
did not like mint. That was why she purposely tricked Zayden into exchanging it back with her.
Zayden was still wondering if the sheep or the wolf was more powerful.
Evan saw right through his daughter’s trick. “Why didn’t you say you like orange flavor?”
Joy licked the lollipop before pointing at Zayden and whispered, “He will snatch the flavor I want, just
like how he wanted the wolf once I said the wolf is more powerful.”
Evan patted her on the head. She’s smart enough to trick her opponent into giving her what she wants
instead of snatching it. I guess she takes after me.
There was a proud glint in his eyes.
Zayden also licked the lollipop, but in the next second, he immediately shrieked, “Daddy, this is spicy…
Spicy…”
Davin took over the lollipop and licked it. “Son, this is how mint-flavored tastes like. It’s not spicy, but it
has a refreshing taste. Come on, taste it again.”
Zayden pouted as he saw Joy enjoying her lollipop. That looks so delicious.
Davin pinched lightly on his cheeks. “Stop looking. You’re the one who wanted to exchange yours with
hers. Do you know the pain now? Next time, you should be smarter. Do you get me?”
