Bai Ge wore a complicated expression, utterly speechless. He had thought of many possible reasons, but never imagined Cecilia had simply forgotten. Do all Saintesses have a natural airheaded streak?
"But didn't you also not call Cecilia?" Theresa jumped in to defend her best friend.
"Because I don't like phone calls. Voices and video alone can't satisfy me at all—they only make me miss her more. That's why I came here in person."
Bai Ge spoke with perfect justification, directly wrapping an arm around Cecilia's slender waist and resting his chin on her fragrant shoulder.
He flaunted this before the envious and jealous Theresa.
"Only meeting face-to-face like this—hearing her voice, seeing her face, sensing her presence, touching her body—can make me feel satisfied. Got it, Judah's Oath over there?"
"Y-you greedy bastard! Who are you calling Judah's Oath?!"
"Whoever gets worked up is who I mean."
"I-I'm not worked up!"
"Um, don't fight."
Cecilia looked helplessly at Bai Ge and Theresa as they began arguing. She felt that both of them were rather childish, though... they were both incredibly cute!
"Alright, I've seen her. I'm leaving."
"Huh? Bai Ge, you're going back already?"
"Hmph! Go, go! You pervert, barging into a girl's bedroom in the middle of the night. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're handsome."
"Theresa~ Do you believe I'll smack your butt into bloom again right in front of Cecilia?"
Bai Ge revealed a radiant smile, but it chilled Theresa more than the night wind. She instinctively hid farther behind Cecilia, then stuck out her little pink tongue.
But just as Bai was preparing to return to Eternal Paradise, he found Cecilia tightly gripping the hem of his clothes.
"Bai Ge... can you... stay tonight?"
"Cecilia?"
"I-I really miss you."
Her eyes
