"When I was ripening those plants, didn't all the spiritual power I absorbed end up in your stomach?"
"Don't think you can trick me just because you assume I don't know."
"I can sense my own spiritual power, you know." Shi Li lifted her chin, signaling for Bingbing to pull her up. If he did, she wouldn't make a fuss about the fall.
But Bingbing just turned his head away again, clearly trying to distance himself from Shi Li.
The sight gave Shi Li a headache.
'Why is this man so hard to placate? He's even more difficult than my Beast Husbands.'
'Could it be because we don't have any real emotional connection?'
"Fine, if you won't help me up, I'll get up myself."
"But I was just thinking, and I realized I've never even gotten a clear look at your face."
"Say, if I manage to clear this maze of yours, will the Wolf Clan's territory return to normal?" Shi Li said, slowly getting to her feet while holding her back.
Yet her steps carried her closer to Bingbing.
