Nian Shutong bid farewell to Fu Yunhe and walked straight out the door, where Lian Qing waited for her.
"Let's go."
"Yes."
Lian Qing continued to follow behind Nian Shutong, neither subservient nor overstepping bounds.
"Master, when will we go to investigate the Crystal Stone?"
Little white mouse's transmitted message prompted Nian Shutong to ask, "What do you think I'm doing now?"
"Have you ever seen me throw money away?"
"No! If Master saw it, she would definitely dive for it desperately."
Nian Shutong's steps paused for a moment, but then she quickly resumed walking as usual, though she flicked her hand vigorously in her pocket.
"Ouch! Master, we're so familiar with each other, don't you mind?"
Little white mouse's words almost made Nian Shutong laugh.
She found that not only had the people around her become much more relaxed in her company, but even the zodiac had become much more comfortable.
