Gu Xi wasn't surprised that Ye Junhan had noticed something was off with Yabao.
After all, the man had always been sharp.
What did surprise her was the timing of him speaking up...
Everyone thought Yabao was her companion plant. And one of the conditions for a 'plant person' to successfully integrate was for the companion plant to be powerful enough, with the highest possible degree of fusion with the ability user.
For Ye Junhan to point out Yabao's strangeness at this particular moment... it was hard for Gu Xi not to read into it.
"Yabao really likes you." She calmly poked the little sprout, which had secretly twisted itself into a pretzel, and looked up at the man. "Would you like to... interact with it?"
But what Yabao was actually expressing was a desire to "play," a word Gu Xi just couldn't bring herself to say to Ye Junhan.
"Alright."
