LIE, SHAME, FEAR

It was a surprise as well as a disappointing answer from Zhu Ge, and Bai Chen widened his blue eyes when he heard the answer.

Zhu Ge had agreed to be his servant, and he had also agreed to help him prepare for the Beast Hunting Event. Moreover, the man in red also asked him to be his friend, and even if Bai Chen didn't say yes to the request, he still had positive thoughts that the man would return to him soon after the barrier between the two empires was lifted.

He didn't expect the man to say that, and that was why he was disappointed in the man's answer.

Bai Chen didn't even notice that he was frowning until a hard flick greeted his forehead. The culprit was, of course, Zhu Ge.

"I really don't like seeing you frown. You look like an old man with wrinkles on your forehead," the culprit casually spoke, and even if Bai Chen felt a sting in his forehead, his frown only deepened upon hearing the man's careless words.
