After the three of them finished their coffee, Lin Huang went to the counter to pay immediately. Yi Yeyu was holding onto Si Kongrou’s arm when he came back, and he could not help but feel like a lightbulb between them.

“Big sister, since your family name is Si Kong, do you happen to be related to Si Kongjian?” Lin Huang thought the atmosphere was awkward, so he broke the ice as they strolled.

“You know Xiao Jian?” Si Kongrou stared puzzledly at Lin Huang.

“He was one of the examiners when we were training in the ruins.”

“Oh, he’s my brother. My cousin brother to be exact. But I have more than ten cousin brothers, so we hardly talk to each other,” Si Kongjian explained.

“I knew it when I heard his name the last time, but I didn’t ask.” Yi Yeyu smugly seemed like she had it all figured out.

“You attended that training as well?” Si Kongrou asked with her eyebrow raised.

“Yeah, that was how I leveled up to holy fire-level. It was Lin Huang who helped me to kill the monster.” Yi Yeyu did not forget about Lin Huang’s help.

“It’s nothing.” Lin Huang faked a laugh as he needed to please Si Kongrou. After all, it was not in his best interest to be hated by an immortal-level.

“Oh, which monster did you kill to level up?” Si Kongrou looked at Lin Huang and asked again.

“The Fire Phoenix. It was difficult…” Yi Yeyu started telling the entire story about how they killed the Fire Phoenix.

And that was how Si Kongrou found out that Lin Huang was an Imperial Censor with great abilities. However, she did not have much comment on him.

“The Fire Phoenix is a double mutated monster with phoenix blood. It’s a great choice for people with fire attributes.” That was all Si Kongrou said.

Yi Yeyu then talked to Si Kongjian about her training while Lin Huang listened as he thought it was eye-opening. However, the conversation then shifted to some girls’ talk that included which facial mask was the best, which lip color would be attractive to guys, the latest arrival of the trendiest brands, who just got married and who got divorced, and so on…

Lin Huang was staring into space as he listened. He even followed the both of them into a shopping mall without realizing it.

The three of them shopped at the ladies’ department. Only Yi Yeyu tried on clothes while Si Kongrou did not. All she did was pick out the largest size for the clothes that she browsed through. Lin Huang did not dare to ask if she was buying them for herself or for someone else. They shopped all the way to the fourth floor where Si Kongrou stopped to gawk at a white wedding dress.

“Such a pretty dress!”

“I think it’s pretty too. Sis Rou Rou, buy it if you like it,” Yi Yeyu encouraged.

“Why should I buy something that I would never wear in my life? Which man would ever want to marry me?” Si Kongrou shook her head and looked away. To Lin Huang, her gentle expression and eyes that dimmed in disdain confirmed that she really was a woman.

“Fate is odd. There’s always someone for you in this world. It’s just that you haven’t met him yet,” Lin Huang comforted her, but he soon regretted what he said as he was afraid that she might think that he was interested in her.

“Maybe…” Si Kongrou only looked sadly at Lin Huang, obviously still down.

To make her feel better, Yi Yeyu brought the both of them to a dessert parlor upstairs.
