The story of the wolf and the baby rabbit begins precariously:

Tù māma yào qù shàngbān, tā qǐng lǎoláng zhàokàn xiǎo bǎobao.
兔  妈妈   要   去    上班,   她  请    老狼      照看     小    宝宝。
When Mother rabbit would go to work she would ask the wolf to take care of her little baby.

From there, a suspenseful story of dialogue between the wolf and the rabbit takes place. A sample of the dialogue:

Xiǎo bǎobao xiǎng māma, tā wèn: “Lǎoláng Lǎoláng jǐ diǎn le?”
小     宝宝      想     妈妈,他 问:“ 老狼       老狼    几 点  了?”
When the little baby missed his mother he would ask: “What’s the time, Mr. Wolf?”
 
Lǎoláng huídá:  “Yī diǎn le.”
老狼       回答:“一 点   了。”
The wolf answered: “One o’clock.”
