Zhuge Yun was startled.
The words he was about to say caught in his throat.
He couldn't get them out.
"Third Brother!"
Zhao Luzheng's eyes sparkled.
"It's a demon!"
"I was just about to say..."
Zhuge Yun rubbed his ear and said with a touch of reproach,
"Third Brother, are you trying to drown everyone out?"
"Your voice is way too loud."
"Sorry."
Zhao Luzheng gave an awkward grin.
"I just suddenly thought of demons... I got a little excited."
Zhuge Yun let out a breath.
His heart was still pounding erratically.
He couldn't help saying, "Little Fourth, I never knew you had the potential to be a musician."
That voice of yours is loud...
Zhao Luzheng rubbed his throat.
"Ahem~"
"Third Brother."
He looked at Xiao Xiao. "A demon ate Second Brother's meat, right?"
"Ahem~"
This time, Zhuge Yun started coughing.
What did he mean, a demon ate his meat?
Why did that sound so weird?
"Pfft~"
Zhang Bo burst out laughing.
"Second Brother, I never knew you were Tang Sanzang."
"Even the meat on your body has demons after it."
Zhuge Yun: ...
Only then did Zhao Luzheng realize that what he'd said could be taken the wrong way.
He waved his hands.
"Don't get the wrong idea."
"As long as you all know what I mean."
Amusement shone in Xiao Xiao's eyes.
"Mm."
"Oh, oh."
Reassured by Xiao Xiao, Zhang Bo and the others looked enlightened.
"Are you all full?"
Xiao Xiao's sudden question left everyone stunned.
"...I could still eat a little more."
Zhuge Yun answered without thinking.
"I'm not full yet."
Zhang Bo grinned.
"Then you'd better eat now, or there won't be anything left on the table."
Xiao Xiao reminded them.
