The meal was enjoyed thoroughly by all, and with their bellies full and thirst quenched, Wufu glanced at the sky and suggested it was time to leave.
"It's getting late, and you want to go back to the village?" Ah Jiu gently persuaded, "The journey home is not short, and you are but a young lady with only a lad by your side. It's not safe. Better to head back early tomorrow morning."
Wufu gave him a peculiar look, "Ninth Master, how old are you this year?"
Ah Jiu was taken aback, blinked twice, and replied, "I have just reached the age of adulthood."
Wufu laughed, "The age of adulthood, huh? If you hadn't said, I would have thought you were of a venerable old age!"
What did she mean by that?
Her eyes gleaming with mischief, Ah Jiu couldn't help but laugh, feeling the tips of his ears heat up. Was she implying he was being long-winded?
Hoo Die, standing on the side, glared at Wufu, Little Fox, even daring to tease his master.
