Ye Qing spoke up at just the right moment. "Maybe too many people have the same name."
"Maybe."
Zhang Sisi did not give it much thought. Overworking her brain could affect her skin.
Ye Qing breathed a sigh of relief at that. He had not expected to be so famous that even the Ice-type Elite Four member out here on the distant frontier had heard of him.
Fortunately, she might only have heard a few snippets. Otherwise, if she really recognized him, he would have to waste words explaining.
In this frozen wilderness, where water froze the instant it dripped, Ye Qing's principle was to never say an extra half a word if he could say one word less.
Zhang Sisi glanced at the Shiny Gardevoir and made a slight adjustment to what she had originally prepared to say.
"You were the one who saved my son this time, weren't you? Don't take his earlier joke to heart.
I'm very grateful to you for saving my son. I'm sure you know who I am and what I'm capable of, so if there's anything you need my help with, just ask."
Zhang Sisi's overbearing words made Ye Qing somewhat uncomfortable.
Of course, he also knew she was not doing it deliberately. It was inevitable after spending so long in a position of authority.
"Do you have a Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon Egg?"
Ye Qing spoke after a moment's thought, still unwilling to give up on a Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon Egg.
"Well..."
Even the well-mannered Ice-type Elite Four member could not help wanting to curse at that. Did this guy really think Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon Eggs were as common as cabbages...?
Having suffered a small setback, Zhang Sisi's imposing air weakened considerably.
"It's fine if you don't."
Seeing Zhang Sisi's embarrassed expression, Ye Qing spoke lightly.
