The little girl sniffed, knowing that their master let them sleep comfortably while he toiled over alchemy to earn Spirit Stones.
If it weren't for the burden of having them, their master wouldn't be working so hard, would he?
Chen Ye was momentarily stunned, taking the towel.
The warm sensation from his fingertips somehow calmed his slightly embarrassed heart, which had been laid bare.
This girl misunderstood...
The innocence of the little girl's heart made Chen Ye feel ashamed.
He placed the towel on his face, taking a long deep breath. The fatigue from staying up late for alchemy dissipated greatly in the warm steam.
"Qing Jun ah..."
Feeling guilty, Chen Ye decided to confess,
"Actually, it's just because Qing Jun's talent is so strong. Master wanted to train a bit more..."
The little girl held another towel, wiping Chen Ye's neck, her voice muffled:
"Qing Jun is no fool."
Her words surprised Chen Ye.
Then the little girl softly said, "But Master is a fool."
