"Looking might make you lose some moisture, but it won't cost you a piece of flesh." Qiu Qingtang squatted on the ground, holding her tail as she licked her fur. "No need to be so nervous."
"No way." Mu Qingyue picked up Qiu Qingtang and placed her on her shoulder: "Can't see the ground now, can you?"
"You're showing off the coconut, aren't you? You're showing off, right?" Qiu Qingtang looked down indignantly. "Even in human form, I can't see the ground..."
"But I can let you listen."
The next words from Mu Qingyue immediately silenced Qiu Qingtang. She tilted her head, looking at Mu Qingyue's side profile: "Really?"
"Only listening." Mu Qingyue stepped toward the window of Huangyu Palace's bedchamber. "If you look, you'll get scolded."
"Fine... don't you like being scolded by Young Master Lu?"
"Shh."
Mu Qingyue made a silencing gesture, then sat beneath the window, listening to the increasingly uncontrollable sounds coming from inside.
