Little White Fox curiously tapped the crystal ball with a paw.
At once, the snowfall inside grew a little heavier.
The glass reflected Little White Fox's gleaming ruby-red eyes.
"Hey, what's this?"
Zhuge Yun leaned over curiously.
"A crystal ball?"
"Third Brother, you—"
As he spoke, Zhuge Yun reached for the crystal ball to get a closer look.
But Little White Fox stopped him with a paw.
Seeing those sharp claws, Zhuge Yun's eye twitched.
He raised both hands.
"Okay, okay, I get it."
"I won't touch it."
That's fine, right?"
"Pfft~"
Zhang Bo and Zhao Luzheng couldn't help laughing at Zhuge Yun's comical expression.
Zhuge Yun rolled his eyes.
"A Jiu is an elderly man."
"I'm just some nobody."
He backed down.
"Third Brother."
Zhuge Yun continued with his question. "What made you suddenly think of buying a crystal ball?"
"Is it a gift for someone?"
It didn't look like one.
There wasn't even any wrapping.
"Someone gave it to me."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"Oh, I see."
Zhuge Yun nodded.
Since he couldn't pick it up for a closer look, he squinted at the crystal ball.
"Inside the crystal ball... is that a glass greenhouse?"
Zhuge Yun exclaimed, "It's beautiful."
"...I think this is the first time I've seen a crystal ball like this..."
"Huh?"
Zhao Luzheng leaned over the back of the chair.
He couldn't help leaning forward.
"Inside the glass greenhouse..."
His eyes widened.
"It's Third Brother!"
"And A Jiu and A Bai?!"
"Really?!"
Zhuge Yun immediately moved closer to the crystal ball.
A Jiu startled him with a swipe of its paw, making him take a step back.
He rubbed his nose, wearing a rueful smile.
"A Jiu, a good fox shouldn't be so stingy."
"I'm just looking."
