She dazedly stopped moving, her cheeks puffed out, forgetting to chew. Then she heard Yusen let out a soft chuckle. "Go on, eat."
Oh… Yu Zhizhi swallowed the egg-yolk pastry in her mouth. She licked her little rabbit paw and looked troubled when she saw the crumbs that had fallen on the soft cushion.
Yusen took out a tissue and wiped up the crumbs.
While he was at it, he also took her little rabbit paw and gently, meticulously wiped it clean.
'Yusen today...'
'...seems different than before.'
'That faint sense of distance is gone.'
Yu Zhizhi thought about what Shen He had said. 'Was Sensen threatened? I'll definitely do my best to avoid the Big Shark from now on...'
As it grew later, Yu Zhizhi leaned against Yusen's body and slowly began to doze off.
Once the political affairs in the Undersea Palace were settled,
Yusen carried the sleeping little rabbit back to Bishui Pavilion.
