"Hey, what do you mean by that?" Lai Mingjie frowned at the child, but the child was too happy to be scared. Since she had already done what she had to, she felt free to share her purpose. She was about to go home now anyway. "Uncle, Uncle! Lina is a seeress now! When I get home, I'll find Brother Rou and tell him I was brave like him!"
"A seeress?" Chartreuse listened and hummed. "Aren't you too young to be a seeress?"
"No, no, Lina is not! The beautiful Auntie said anyone could be a seeress at any age as long as they are willing." Mao Lina continued to cheer up. "Uncle, Uncle, am I really brave? You think Brother Rou would say that, too?"
Lai Mingjie's frown was locked. He didn't know why this princess was asking him like this now. He only thought that she grew close to him to locate Lai Mingyan, and now she was asking him things about what this Brother Rou thought.
