Taotie thought for a long time before he finally remembered his promise to see a movie tomorrow with that female employee from his wife's company. He hesitated for a good while but ultimately decided against saying anything.
Xu Lai patted the First Divine General's shoulder, speaking earnestly, "Yiyi is quite fond of Yun Jin. Let her stay here for a few more days."
"Of course." Taotie immediately cupped his fists.
Xu Lai continued, "As her guardian, you should stay for a few more days, too."
"...Your Majesty, this humble general is concerned with official business in the Heavenly Court. I implore you to let me return to the Immortal Domain tomorrow night," Taotie said solemnly.
Xu Lai was speechless. Taotie is the one who most hates dealing with all that messy paperwork in the Heavenly Court. Is he really that afraid of some girl that he'd use this excuse? It's not like the young lady is some kind of monster. Besides, he's the real ferocious beast here... a Taotie!
