“Painting Fairy, the Painting Fairy is here!”

“Where? Let me see”

“Where, where?”

Hearing the various voices, Gu Nan stopped her cup midway and unconsciously turned to look at the source of the disturbanceSo to an elevated platform above

Gu Nan’s gaze turned towards Painting Fairy’s face, but it was mostly covered by a soft veil

She then saw a pair of eyes that were charlance over the crowds, it caused all the men to fall into a stupor
