Lorraine had just arrived.
Kaoru Amagawa immediately rushed in front of him, looking both aggrieved and angry, like a kitten about to be abandoned by a heartless man, staring intently into his eyes.
"Xunzi?"
Lorraine still didn't understand what was going on.
Kaoru Amagawa grabbed his clothes and questioned him, her voice trembling with tears, "Are you really going to go out with Yoru for a whole week, to have a happy honeymoon and enjoy your vacation? And you're leaving us here to deal with the villains of the evil organization, just so you two can be all lovey-dovey and do all those filthy things in places we don't know about?"
Even Hua Lingyao, who was standing to the side, looked at him with considerable frustration and disappointment.
"Brother Lin, Xiao Ye told us she's going away for a week. Is that true? Why Xiao Ye? Does Brother Lin like Xiao Ye more?"
Water Goddess Xiaoye remained calm.
"It's alright, Lorraine. Just tell everyone our decision from last night."
——
The three people reacted differently.
Lorraine probably understood as well.
He laughed and gestured for Kaoru Amakawa to let go of him. Then, Lorraine found a corner under a tree and sat down, saying to Kaoru and Haruka, "I was just about to tell you about this."
"Lorraine, you know the consequences of toying with me, don't you!" Kaoru Tenkawa felt like her heart was about to break.
"Brother Lin, you can come to me if you need anything." Hua Lingyao still firmly believed in the promise she made to Brother Lin.

"Lorraine (Brother Lin)!" x2
"but!--"
Lorraine's tone became serious and earnest as she said, "This isn't about going out to play, nor is it about irresponsibly dumping all the work on you. This is about spiritual practice!"
"Cultivation?" x2
"Yes, that's right. Originally, it would have taken longer to complete, but considering your studies and work pressures, I have to shorten the time to one week. Time is tight and the task is heavy, so I hope you can secure this week of special training time for us."
Lorraine explained earnestly, though she still hadn't made Amakawa Kaoruko and Hanabishi Haruka fully understand what was going on.
But at least they understood one thing.
That is...
The story of the week-long honeymoon that Shuishen Xiaoye mentioned during her lunch break is completely fabricated and never happened!
As for the others...
Amakawa Kaoruko and Hanabishi Haruka didn't seem to care much anymore; they both breathed a sigh of relief, finally putting down the heavy weight that had been hanging over them for so long.
Especially Kaoru Amakawa.
She also glanced at the water goddess Xiaoye and murmured meaningfully, "On your honeymoon~ Xiaoye, you're really something."
Who knew?
The latter blushed and said, "Anyway, we spent a whole week together, which is no different from a honeymoon for me!"

Her casual remark immediately made both Kaoru Amakawa and Haruka Hanabi feel terrible.
