"Little Fish, big sis, I spotted you from way over there! Are you going to Aurum Alley too?"
Once Stelle and Jiang Yu drew near, Bailu greeted them first.
Jiang Yu narrowed his eyes at Bailu. "Well, this is rare! How come you're out having fun all by yourself? Did that visit the other day actually make those pointy-eared old men see reason? They're not so rigid after all!"
"What? Those stubborn old men would never be that agreeable! They act one way in front of you and another behind your back!" Hearing Jiang Yu's words, Bailu immediately protested, but then she laughed, her tail swishing rapidly twice behind her.
"Hehe. I actually asked Sister Banxia to handle the Dragon Masters for me, then sneaked out on my own!"
Hearing that, Stelle raised an eyebrow and gave Bailu an odd look. "She became your follower... just to do this for you?"
"What do you know? This is called making the best use of your resources." Bailu tilted her chin up. The Dragon Lady wore a confident expression as she pointed her little finger. "Little Fish and General Jing Yuan both do it. You've been adventuring with Little Fish for so long, and you still don't know that?"
Stelle: "..." Banxia really has a good temper... No wonder she's always so gentle and friendly when she talks.
With a sigh, Stelle looked at Bailu again, only for her expression to freeze.
The Dragon Lady of the Healer's Apothecary was gazing at her pleadingly, her clear eyes sparkling.
Knowing Bailu's personality, Stelle immediately went on alert and realized that this was a trap the Dragon Lady of the Healer's Apothecary had set to get a free meal out of her!
But trying to win her over like this was far too naive.
