Am I such a petty person?

"Why? Don't you like it?"

"Like it! Like it!"

The little chap bobbed his head hurriedly. He held the gift protectively in his arms, seemingly fearful that his uncle would change his mind. There was no more of that aloof attitude as he clung onto his uncle's neck and caressed his handsome face lovingly with his cheek. "Thank you for your new-year present! I love it!"

"I'm glad that you like it!"

"But you mustn't regret your action. Since you've given this to me, it's no longer yours!" The boy reminded him warily.

The corner of his lips twitched involuntarily. Feeling displeased, he pinched his nephew's cheek and asked, "Am I such a petty person?"

"Yes…"

The man was dumbfounded by the boy's reply. Suddenly, he reached out to grab the present without warning. "If you think I'm that petty, then you'd better return this gift to me!"

"No way!"
