Unlike Xi, who preferred staying cooped up at home, Nian liked visiting interesting places and meeting interesting people.
Nian had already seen all the interesting things Xi had mentioned over the past few days. It was time to leave.
"No need. I'll just stay home." Xi involuntarily stepped back.
"Hehe, why do you look like that?" Nian was puzzled when she saw Xi shrinking back as if she wanted to run away.
She was about to leave Xi's painting. Xi should have been happy, right?
"Oh, because Xi just submitted an application to join Rhodes Island. Perhaps this is what they call great minds thinking alike," Chen Luo said.
"That's great! The two of us can go to Rhodes Island together." Nian grabbed Xi, who was trying to leave, and slung an arm around her shoulders.
"I don't want to go to Rhodes Island anymore! Chen Luo, help me deal with Nian!" Xi said.
"Chen Luo, stay out of this," Nian said at the same time.
Ding! You have a new commission!
Ding! You have a new commission!
"...Sorry, Xi. She's simply offering too much," Chen Luo said helplessly.
"So you two should work it out yourselves." Chen Luo took a step back and went off to play with the Herrscher of Knowledge.
"I don't want to go to Rhodes Island with you. Stop pestering me!" Xi said impatiently.
"Don't say that. How about this? If you're willing to go to Rhodes Island with me, I'll never barge into your paintings without permission again. What do you say?" Nian tried to negotiate with Xi.
"..."
"And we can invite Sister Ling over too. Have Chen Luo invite her!" Nian continued tempting her.
"...It's a deal. If I go to Rhodes Island, you can never barge into my paintings without permission
