Boss murmured to herself like that. By the end, a trace of melancholy had even appeared on her lovely face. She touched her cheek, looking rather helpless. "This won't do. The next time I see Lin Yi, keeping a straight face seems like it'll be a little difficult."

"If you can't keep a straight face, then don't, dear brother Lin Yi," the Law-Crafting Master muttered mischievously, putting on Boss's voice. "Ah, suddenly I'm a little envious of that girl called Li Huiyuan-"
