Early morning...
Walking out of his tent, Wu Yan yawned tiredly as he straightened out his rumpled clothes...
Yesterday, because Purple had returned, the girls had decided to hold an impromptu celebration for her return!
Originally, Purple had not particularly wanted to celebrate. Compared to that, she was more curious about what had happened around everyone during the time she had been away. As for celebrating, couldn't they do that anytime?...
However, when Purple used "couldn't they celebrate anytime" as her reason for refusing, the girls used "couldn't they explain anytime" to completely shut her down. Left with no choice, Purple could only follow their arrangements and join the celebration.
That was when Wu Yan, who had been ignored the entire time, was finally "picked up" by the girls...
The reason they had "picked him up" was simple: celebrations required delicious food...
Thus, while the girls happily celebrated Purple's return, Wu Yan spent the entire night acting as their chef. By the end, the girls had all enjoyed themselves to the fullest, while Wu Yan kept making stir-frying motions even in his sleep...
Fortunately, vampires were nocturnal creatures with virtually endless stamina. Otherwise, after all that fuss last night, Wu Yan's hands would have been sore and numb when he woke up this morning...
At this time, the sky had only just begun to brighten. Even the sunlight had not fully spread across the ground yet; it could only be considered dawn. After staying up so late last night and then getting up so early, it was no wonder Wu Yan looked exhausted, considering his personality of preferring sleeping in to anything
