"Is Spring Never Ages really that bad? Why does it feel like all of you are so opposed to it?"
As Belle asked the question, Fu Hua turned her gaze toward the others.
Li Sushang and the others immediately stiffened.
"Hehe... they're just sick of eating it, that's all. Don't mind them, Belle."
"So that's how it is. Indeed, if it's something you eat all the time, it can become hard to swallow."
Lunch soon came to an end. After the group gathered for tea and chatted for a while,
Fu Hua stood and said to Belle,
"It's time to attend the banquet, Belle. I'll take you down while I'm at it."
"Ah, okay, Ah Hua~"
"Wait, I'll do it! Old Fossil, leave taking her down to me—"
Belle recalled how she had felt when coming up the mountain after glancing at Herrscher of Reason.
She decisively moved closer to Fu Hua.
"Little Herrscher, no need to trouble yourself. Belle, let's go."
Wrapping an arm around Belle's waist, Fu Hua slowly rose into the sky.
The two flew away side by side, leaving Herrscher of Reason standing there foolishly, watching them go.
"Ohoho~ Herrscher of Reason, that's what you get for being so rash~ Are you satisfied with this outcome now?"
Book of Cang Xuan ran over and teased her.
"Hmph, I really do hate that cereal girl."
"Hey~ She knows how to handle things better than you do, Herrscher of Reason."
"Tsk~ Even though I'm unhappy about it, I don't think Old Fossil likes someone like her."
"Oh? You understand her?"
"Of course."
Hearing that, Book of Cang Xuan asked curiously,
"Then what kind of person do you think Wooden Head likes?"
"Obviously me~"
Book of Cang Xuan twitched at the corner of her mouth and turned away speechlessly.
