He made a sound of acknowledgment and then murmured to himself in confusion,
"It's just, this is something only very close people can do...
"And since I promised you, then surely before achieving that, we must already be in a close relationship, right?"
An Le pursed her lips, feeling parched, and hurriedly called out to Little Thumb in her mind,
"Li... Little Thumb..."
"Ah, what's up?"
Little Thumb materialized, listened to An Le explain the current situation, and couldn't help but flick its tongue, hesitating,
"Hiss... well...when I corrected the memory, I just anchored that promise, making it feel natural to him...
"Mm... as for the rationalizations he later developed in his mind over time, I don't know how that worked..."
As expected, it was because of the memory correction!
Listening to Little Thumb's words, a tiny bit of guilt surfaced on An Le's face.
And upon seeing the guilt on An Le's face, Yan Huan immediately realized his guess was correct.
