Xiao Xiao was about to step into the rain.
Wait.
The River God stopped Lord Xiao Xiao.
It turned around.
In a flash, it vanished.
Xiao Xiao raised an eyebrow.
Before long, the River God returned.
Holding...
A look of understanding flickered in Xiao Xiao's eyes.
It was the princess's white lace parasol.
The River God handed the parasol to Lord Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao looked at the River God.
Was this...
to shield him from the rain?
The River God nodded.
Lord Xiao Xiao didn't have an umbrella.
It remembered that it had just happened to find one.
So it had brought this umbrella for Lord Xiao Xiao.
Looking at the River God's slightly smug, eager-for-praise expression, Xiao Xiao smiled wryly.
The River God meant well.
It was just...
Xiao Xiao reached out and took the parasol from the River God—
Their current position was difficult for other people to see because of the angle.
But there were always exceptions.
It was better to be careful.
"Thank you."
Xiao Xiao thanked it.
He opened the parasol.
He didn't need to say anything. The smile on the River God's face froze.
It had realized the problem.
The umbrella was for a child...
How could it be suitable for an adult?
Especially for a grown man using a little girl's umbrella...
In Xiao Xiao's hand, the white lace parasol looked like an accessory for a doll.
Well.
Xiao Xiao's eyes lit up a little.
It was just right for shielding Little White Fox from the rain.
The River God immediately grew flustered and embarrassed.
It hadn't known...
It had forgotten...
The River God felt rather regretful.
How could it not have known?
How could it have forgotten?
I'm sorry,
