In Hexi's private garden at Merlot Heavenly Court, a figure slowly descended from the sky.
Her long, loose hair was somewhat disheveled from flying. Kaisha casually swept it behind her head, revealing a flawless jade-like face carrying the majesty of a Queen before Hexi, who had been looking in this direction.
Under Hexi's gaze, Kaisha strode toward her.
Hexi could see clearly that although Kaisha looked no different from before on the surface, her steps were somewhat hurried. A distance that would previously take four steps to cross took Kaisha only three today.
Hexi quietly waited for Kaisha to enter the pavilion. Only when Kaisha reached her side did she speak.
"What's this? This should be the crucial point of your deliberation. Why did you suddenly come here? Have you figured it out? Made your choice? Found the direction toward a bright future for Angel Civilization?"
Faced with Hexi's questions, Kaisha said nothing. She merely walked straight to the seat beside Hexi and slowly sat down.
"Not talking?"
Hexi frowned as she looked at Kaisha, who remained silent, making not a sound and merely sizing her up from head to toe with those bright eyes.
The way Kaisha was looking her over made her somewhat uncomfortable.
Kaisha looked like some... hooligan appraising her figure...
"Old woman, what exactly are you doing? You came here without saying a word just to disgust me?!!!"
Hexi shifted her body slightly, preventing Kaisha's gaze from settling on her ample chest. Kaisha's undisguised stare made her uncomfortable.
Hexi muttered inwardly, Could it be that Kaisha found the choice too difficult, the pressure too great, and suffered a mental breakdown that exposed some dark corner of her heart?!!!
Otherwise, they had been partners for thirty thousand years. Hexi had never thought Kaisha was someone who harbored such desires toward women. With the little angels of Merlot Heavenly Court worshipping Kaisha so much, all Kaisha would have to do was crook a finger and...
Hexi had just turned aside and avoided Kaisha's blatant stare. Before she could even breathe a sigh of relief, she felt that familiar gaze appear again. This time, it was not in front of her, but behind her...
Her ample chest had escaped, but her perky rear had fallen!
Hexi glanced at Kaisha, who still said nothing and merely wore an expression of satisfaction. Gritting her teeth, she summoned a ripple from a miniature spacetime wormhole beside her. The next moment, a silver-white longsword appeared in Hexi's hand.
"Kaisha, if you keep looking me over with that disgusting gaze, I'll chop you up!"
Hexi gripped the sword hilt and threatened Kaisha.
Seeing Hexi's furious expression, Kaisha knew that Hexi had nearly reached her limit. Thus, she withdrew that improper gaze and returned to her usual Queenly bearing.
At last, Hexi sensed Kaisha's improper appraisal disappear and finally let out a breath. Just now, she had been afraid Kaisha had gone mad and was lusting after the beauty of the mighty Heavenly Base King!
It was not that Hexi was narcissistic. Her looks and figure were among the very best even in Merlot Heavenly Court, where beauties gathered like clouds!
"Old woman, what madness were you up to just now?"
Hexi asked Kaisha irritably.
A faint smile rested on Kaisha's lips as she replied with a trace of praise in her voice.
"I was merely admiring your beauty, Hexi."
Hexi frowned, clearly dissatisfied with that answer, but Kaisha gave her no chance to question further.
"I never paid close attention before, Hexi. But now that I look, I realize..."
"A willow-slender waist, peach-like hips—graceful and curvaceous, yet plump and juicy!"
Hexi felt goosebumps rise all over her body.
"Old woman, if you don't know how to compliment someone, then don't. It isn't just my waist and hips that are beautiful. Everywhere else is beautiful too!"
Hexi snapped back at Kaisha, but Kaisha did not get angry. Instead, she nodded in agreement. Her gaze fell upon a certain place before Hexi's chest.
"Mm, this part is very full too!"
Hexi felt as though her punch had landed in cotton.
She glared at Kaisha once more.
"If you have something to say, say it. If not, you can leave!"
Hexi did not want to continue talking with Kaisha. Kaisha was acting a little strange now.
"Don't rush, Hexi. Wasn't I just about to say it?"
Kaisha smiled at Hexi. Looking at her, her expression became solemn and serious as she slowly spoke.
"Hexi, I've made my decision."
"You've made your decision?"
Hearing that, Hexi looked at Kaisha. Seeing the solemn, serious look in Kaisha's eyes, her own expression grew serious as well. Though she did not know what had been going on with Kaisha earlier, this was not the time to dwell on it.
"Would you like to guess what my choice is?"
Perhaps because she had already figured things out, Kaisha instead had the leisure to joke with Hexi.
Hexi glanced at Kaisha, shook her head, and had no intention of indulging her. She merely picked up the teapot from the table beside them and poured a cup for both Kaisha and herself.
"Since you want to keep us in suspense, why not have a cup of tea first?"
As she spoke, Hexi placed Kaisha's cup before her. Steam rose from the tea, and ripples spread across its surface.
"Drink it while it's hot."
Hexi said this to Kaisha, yet she did not lift the cup she had poured for herself. Instead, she silently watched the rippling tea in the cup.
Kaisha looked at the tea before her, then at Hexi. After a moment, she understood Hexi's meaning. A smile touched her lips, and she did not move her own cup either, merely watching the ripples on the tea's surface gradually settle into stillness.
The ripples in the tea gradually vanished, returning to stillness. The moment the tea became calm, Kaisha and Hexi simultaneously lifted their cups and drained the still-steaming tea in a single gulp.
"Fine tea!"
Kaisha praised it casually.
"The tea leaves were a gift from you!"
"That only proves I have good taste!"
Hexi looked at Kaisha, shrugged, and rolled her eyes at her.
"Before I came, you already knew my choice, didn't you?"
Kaisha looked at the teacup before her, her voice carrying a peculiar undertone.
"No. I only knew what choice I hoped you would make!"
The smile on Kaisha's lips became even more pronounced.
"Then now, you know."
Hexi looked at the empty cup Kaisha had drained and nodded.
"I know. So?"
Kaisha shifted her gaze away from the cup and looked at Hexi's fair, jade-like face.
"So what?"
"So, what are you going to do?"
Seeing Kaisha pretend not to understand, Hexi silently scoffed. But she had been the one to begin this little game of mystery, so she could only continue playing along with Kaisha.
"What am I going to do? I already said it just now!"
"You already said it? What did you say?"
Hexi frowned and thought back. Aside from Kaisha disgusting her by acting like a hooligan when she arrived, Hexi could not remember Kaisha saying anything else.
"I said your figure is great! A willow-slender waist, peach-like hips. According to the saying in Lieyang... you have the standard build for an easy delivery!"
Kaisha looked at Hexi with a beaming smile.
"Kaisha, you really are after me! I'll fight you!"
The moment Kaisha finished speaking, Hexi understood what she meant. With a shout, she drew her royal sword again and chased after Kaisha, who had already retreated several steps from her seat the instant Hexi cried out.
