Ai Lun sighed again with a ghostly air.
"You two, don't blame me for being harsh, but what matters can't you tell me? Am I incapable of doing anything? Am I missing an arm or a leg? I'm a living person, what can't I do?"
Casting a sidelong glance at the girl who had good intentions but no sense of gravity, Zhan Se shook his head with a smile.
"Alright, stop flustering. I'll give you an important task right now."
As soon as Ai Lun heard about a task, she immediately calmed down and stared with wide eyes.
"Tell me, what's the task?"
Zhan Se looked down at the bluestone pavement under his feet, and seeing her gaze follow his, he furrowed his brows as if struggling, and said in a faint voice, "This task is quite difficult, I'm really afraid that you..."
"What exactly is the task? I promise to complete it, okay?" Her fingers dug tightly into her arm, full of vigor, her eyes brimming with eager anticipation.
