“...Uh… About that….” Ye Lang had no words.

“Stop wasting time, go plan! This is a good opportunity!” Coldblood Five gave him a swift kick so he would go to the Full Moon Festival.

“Alright, alright! I’ll go!” Ye Lang did a magnificent backflip, landed, then left.

…

Upon arriving at the festival, Ye Lang was surprised to find the place busier than he expected!

This year’s Full Moon Festival was held in the yard of Zhu's Soup House. The place was spacious enough to house a thousand attendees comfortably, yet right now Ye Lang was very, very uncomfortable. This proved that there were definitely more than a thousand people here now.

“Fuck me, how can I get closer to Li Yue in such a setting? I might as well take a nap at home!” Ye Lang was about to go home upon seeing the crowd.

However, there was a very unfriendly gaze coming from another direction… Ye Lang realised it was Athena. She was invited too.

Under her watchful eyes, he had no choice but to squeeze himself into the crowd. Athena watched as he disappeared quickly amongst the sea of attendees, making her frustrated. He was obviously avoiding her… Was she really THAT scary?

You’re not scary, you’re just annoying!

If she asked, this would be Ye Lang’s answer. It was his truth. Right now, Athena was the most inconvenient person ever because she was too smart for him and always needed him to follow her plans exactly.

Ye Lang usually ignored her when it became too tedious but this Li Yue plan was too important to not listen to Athena.

“Thud!”

He collided with a little girl as he was forcing himself through the crowd.

“Are you alright? I’m sorry, it was an accident… Hey, it’s you again! Looks like fate wants us to meet.” Ye Lang realised it was the same girl he’d collided with at the door when he helped her up.

“Eh, it’s you again!” The girl was equally surprised.

“Alright, let me buy you something. Do you want another toy?” asked Ye Lang.

“It’s fine, one’s enough! Do you have anything else fun?” said the girl, her eyes gleaming with anticipation. She was very satisfied with the toy he’d given her previously.

“Fun? I’ve got a lot of things that are fun! But they’re not suitable for a little girl like you.. Right, I think you’d really like this. Girls usually like this.” Ye Lang retrieved a huge teddy bear from his space ring almost as tall as the little girl.

“Wow, it’s adorable! What’s it called?” The girl was ecstatic, hugging the bear excitedly.

“This is called a teddy bear! See, I told you girls liked teddy bears. You can hug him to sleep at night, it’ll be fun!” Ye Lang smiled, then couldn’t help but stroke her hair.

“...” The little girl froze suddenly. She stared at him in confusion, her eyes filled with confusion.

“Hey, our boss Miss Zhu’s so playful today, she’s like a regular little girl!”
