"That's not funny. Not even remotely funny at all. You know how close I was to breaking that promise instantly?"
Xiaoyun murmured as his mind let out a sigh of relief. But at the same time, he could feel his inside feeling a little disappointed.
"So you wouldn't be with me if I were younger?" Lily questioned.
"Yeah. Not that young. It's just... just fucked up. Even I have lines that I had drawn for myself not to cross."
"Then how about sister Nami?"
"She's an adult when I was with her. Don't try to spin it into something weird." Xiaoyun immediately clarified.
"You don't have to answer so fast like that... You know, it makes me really think you have some weird fetish, brother Xiaoyun."
"I-I'm completely normal. I don't know what you're talking about. Stop trying to gaslight me into confessing something I don't have."
"But what if I wasn't joking earlier?"
