Chapter 331 - 331: Thoughtful Junior Sister (2/2)
”And it's not even what I meant.” That's exactly what she meant, but Lillie pretended it's not. She raised her eyebrows and said, ”Get your mind out of the gutter, Senior Brother.”
Death wanted to vomit blood in anger. Could you blame me?!
Peace had once again prevailed after that. Seeing that his Junior Sister stopped bullying him, Death hopped inside and made himself comfortable on the seat.
”I'll be separating from you two after we dock back on the first port, so don't worry about me ruining your lovey-dovey time afterwards.” Death waved his hand in reassurance.
”From everything you'd said priorly, that statement was the only thing I found pleasing to hear.”
”The feeling's mutual, sissy boy.”
The five year olds in the body of a.d.u.l.t males glared daggers at each, both opting to strangle or throw one out of the suspended lift, blissfully unaware of the impending danger the only female, who has grown tired of their nonsense, leeks out.
”I see you two need a mind refresher.”

”Aiyo, what happened to your face? Did a crab pinched you or something?” Arriving back at the initial port, Master Qi quizzically looked at the wincing white-haired man whose cheek was marred red.
Grand Disciple Life's husband was acting odd too, cautiously holding his left arm as if he's afraid someone would bump into it.
”A crab jumped on the ship, and Senior Brother thought it'll be fun to play with it.” Lillie smoothly lied with a straight face.
You would've believed her if not for the fact that what she said sounded so bizarre and unbelievable.
Or maybe it did happen? Who knows what kind of bizarre phenomenon Mother Nature brews.
Saying their farewells to Master Qi and the crew, Lillie, Ethan, and Death walked towards the bustling streets that's not too far away from the port and stopped by the side of the busy road that's lightly crowded with cars and other vehicles.
”This is where we get separated.” Death turned to Lillie. ”Take care, Little Flower.”
”You as well, Senior Brother.” Lillie gently smiled at Death.
”You want a hug?”
”No, thank you.”
”Aww...”
”That reminds me, if you plan on barging in our home again in the future, do notify me in advance, alright?”
”Yes, ma'am.” Death nodded nervously at frosty gaze his Junior Sister casted.
A taxi pulled over right ahead of them after Ethan hailed it. The door opened and Ethan stuffed his and Lillie's duffle bags inside.
Death didn't moved from his spot yet, deciding to see the two off before he, too, proceed to where he's heading.
Rolling down the taxi's window, Lillie faced her Senior Brother and said her final remark, ”I packed a jar of wine on your bag, if you haven't noticed yet.”
The taxi already drove off when Death woke up from his state of stupefaction. He hurriedly brought his duffle bag on his chest and opened the zipper.
His eyes glistened and tears nearly rolled down.
Aiyo, his Junior Sister's truly thoughtful. Brushing aside her affectionate bullying, she knows how to treat him well.
