"Tell her the good news."
Lu Xiaoxiao was overjoyed.
"Ye Zi will definitely be so happy..."
"Wait, wait."
Yu Yuer hurriedly called for a stop.
"Let's slow down a little."
Huh?
Lu Xiaoxiao and Yang Jialing looked at Yu Yuer in confusion.
What?
Yu Yuer rubbed her temples.
"Um..."
"Are we really just going to believe it?"
Could it really be that simple?
"You don't believe it?"
Yang Jialing's eyes widened.
"Then why were you celebrating with us just now?"
Yu Yuer: ...
She was at a loss for words.
"...I was just caught up in your excitement."
No matter what, she'd joined in the cheering and screaming.
Yang Jialing: ...
"Fine."
"So what do you think now?"
"I don't really have any thoughts."
Yu Yuer sat up straight.
It was just...
"Little Deer, why don't you ask Master Xiao again?"
"Master Xiao's answer was way too brief."
"Only the first sentence was brief."
Yang Jialing couldn't help muttering.
At least he'd explained a little more afterward.
Yu Yuer pretended not to hear Yang Jialing.
She looked at Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Just ask Master Xiao to say a bit more."
"Look."
Yu Yuer spread her hands.
"Even now, all of us—including you—are still completely in the dark about what's going on with you."
"Don't you want some answers?"
Yang Jialing tilted her head.
"I'm fine either way."
"As long as Little Deer is okay, that's all that matters."
She wasn't particularly attached to getting an answer to this question.
It had been unclear for this long, after all.
She didn't mind if it stayed unclear a little longer.
"...Of course."
Yu Yuer nodded.
"Little Deer being okay is the most important thing."
But...
Yu Yuer pressed her lips together.
"Little Deer."
"Do you want to know?"
"You don't mind either way?"
