Alchemy With Imperial Dragonforge Cauldron
"So you're jealous?"
Before she could answer, he reached out and pinched her cheek as well, spreading the love evenly.
Liza Voss froze for a brief second before letting out a soft huff. Her puffed cheeks relaxed, though a faint blush quickly spread across her petite face. She instinctively covered the cheek Julian had pinched and glared at him with mock annoyance.
"Hmph... I thought Young Master was only rewarding Sister Lina."
Julian chuckled.
"Would I really play favorites?"
Lina Ashford smiled quietly beside them, brushing a loose strand of emerald hair behind her ear.
"I told you he wouldn't."
Liza crossed her arms.
"I know... but you still got pinched first."
Julian laughed helplessly.
"So that's what this is about?"
Liza looked away.
"...Maybe."
The atmosphere instantly became lighter.
The exhaustion from the mission gradually melted away beneath their playful conversation.
