"It’s true."
Yin Yuchen said softly, "They asked me to save them."
"They don’t want to die yet."
Yulin was taken aback.
She looked at Yin Yuchen, puzzled, "You... aren’t lying to me?"
Yin Yuchen shook his head, "No."
Yulin fell silent.
She hadn’t expected that Yin Yuchen really didn’t intend to keep the Lotus Pendant for himself.
He truly felt compassion and wanted to save the pair of Lotus Pendants.
Such a pure-hearted person...
Yulin felt a bit complicated inside.
She looked at Yin Yuchen and said softly, "So what do you plan to do now?"
"Let’s return the fish."
Yin Yuchen said gently, "They’ve been out of water for too long."
"If we delay any longer, they will die."
Yulin sighed.
"Unfortunately, I don’t have a spirit beast pouch."
She said helplessly, "Otherwise, I could help you take them out."
Yin Yuchen thought for a moment, "I can give you a ride."
Yulin was surprised, "You’ll give me a ride?"
Yin Yuchen nodded, "You helped me, so I should thank you."
"I’ll give you the Lotus Pendant."
"Consider it my gift of gratitude."
"You want to give me the Lotus Pendant?"
Yulin looked at Junior Brother, a playful thought crossing her mind. She rested her chin on her hand and pondered, "But... I like eating fish."
She gazed at Junior Brother, blinking her eyes, "What should I do?"
Junior Brother was taken aback, staring at Yulin with a confused expression.
Yulin chuckled lightly and continued, "Let me tell you something."
"I have loved eating fish since I was little."
"As long as there is delicious fish, I can ignore everything else."
She fixed her intense gaze on Junior Brother, "If someone tries to stop me from eating fish..."
"Then I won't be in a good mood."
Junior Brother's face turned pale instantly.
He stared blankly at Yulin, stammering, "S-Senior Sister..."
Seeing him frightened and pale, Yulin couldn't help but feel amused.
Clearing her throat, she continued, "So, you said you would give me fish?"
Lowering her voice, she asked softly, "Will you try to stop me from eating fish later?"
Junior Brother trembled in fear.
He looked at Yulin helplessly and shook his head repeatedly, "I won't stop you."
"Really?"
Yulin was skeptical, "You wouldn't lie to me, would you?"
"I wouldn't," Junior Brother assured earnestly, "I absolutely won't lie to you."
"That's good to hear."
Yulin huffed lightly and stood up, saying, "Let's go."
Junior Brother got up alongside her.
They were in a very intimate position. Yulin was sitting on Junior Brother's lap, her body unconsciously leaning against his shoulder.
She stood up, intending to put away her magical tool and leave together. However, just as she took a step, her body suddenly lost control. She slumped back into Junior Brother's arms once again.
Yulin thought to herself: "..." She wanted to explain, but she felt that after what had just happened, there was really nothing to explain if it happened again.
"Um." She patted Junior Brother's shoulder and said seriously, "Do you believe me when I say it wasn't intentional?"
Junior Brother's face turned bright red. He replied softly, "I... I believe you."
Yulin sighed in relief. Thankfully, although this Junior Brother wasn't very skilled, he was genuinely kind-hearted.
"Wait a moment," she said as she gathered the surrounding spiritual energy, hoping to recover quickly. "I'll be fine soon."
This time, her recovery was quite fast. Junior Brother stared at her in a daze, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"Come a little closer," Yulin waved her hand. "Let's stand up together."
Junior Brother didn't move. Instead, he tore off a strip of fabric from the hem of his robe.
