"Forget it. I didn't come here to hear you explain these things."
"Though your explanation passes muster with me."
"But I still have to say this."
"Or rather, as your confidante, I need to remind you..."
"You should be thinking about how to explain this to Xun'er and the others now!"
At that, Little Fairy Doctor let out a faint sigh.
Strictly speaking,
she and Gu Xun'er were the same kind of people.
She was scheming.
Gu Xun'er was even more scheming.
