For example, right now, the girl is leaning against Shen Yunhao's shoulder, her eyes sparkling with an unprecedented happiness.
That's a feeling that video calls can't provide.
Every word and action of her little brother released an element that made her happy, making her feel that just quietly listening to him talk and chatting with him was a very happy thing.
"So...do you know who won the final match?"
Who is it?
Zhu Li raised her head, her eyes shining, seemingly genuinely curious.
"Of course it's our Mr. Krabs!"
"Huh? Why?"
"Because he put everything he could take from the inn into his bag within the rules, and upon closer inspection, it turned out he had even pried off the door of the room and taken it! It turns out he's the stingiest crab in the world, because he really is stingy!"
"puff!"
Zhu Li seemed to be able to imagine that scene, and she leaned against Shen Yunhao's chest and giggled.
When she smiled, Shen Yunhao smiled foolishly along with her.
Then the two looked at each other and laughed even harder...
Mu Shuangshuang: "..."
So... is it really that funny?
At this moment, Her Highness the Saintess was soaking in the bathtub, her body leaning against the edge, having listened to the two men chatting idly for half an hour... The water had gone cold, yet they were still talking...
It's so easy, I don't feel tired at all.
The seventh princess was initially quite angry, but unfortunately, the lecherous brat seemed to have completely mastered how to change the subject and make her happy.
The anger dissipated in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, and they spent the rest of the time chatting.
One minute they're talking about a giant python swallowing a monkey, and then they end up building bridges and ships for it...
Hmm, I'll have to talk to Hongyu when I get back and tell her to be careful not to accidentally swallow the monkey.
Then they say that there is a scorpion demon on Ziyun Mountain who shattered the dreams of countless monkeys with her tail.
Haha... Where is Ziyun Mountain? Which of my relatives there is always catching monkeys?
This is even more outrageous; crabs in the sea are running a restaurant while being stingy...
That's utterly absurd.
The problem is that no matter what Shen Yunhao says, that silly dragon listens very attentively and laughs heartily at the slightest provocation.
I just laughed.
You're such an old dragon, how come you're so easily amused?
You, a dragon princess, know better than him what crabs in the sea look like.
And this lecherous brat, all he does when he's with me is talk about the most beautiful colors and the ultimate romance, and he even stares at my portrait and fantasizes about it right in front of me.
Why don't you tell me these strange and wonderful stories too?
Although I'd definitely be too lazy to listen...
Mu Shuangshuang was unaware that her eyes were rolling to the sky and her lips were pouting.
For some reason, the happier the two of them laughed, the more unhappy she became.
"Sigh...when will this end? I, a dignified Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, am about to be boiled into scorpion soup..."
Just then, the sounds outside suddenly ceased, leaving only silence.
Mu Shuangshuang immediately perked up her ears, but could only hear a very faint whispered sound.
A moment later, the girl's voice, barely audible, rang out: "Yun Hao... are you... alright...?"
"Shh! Don't move... Sister Li'er, I can't hold back anymore!"
Mu Shuangshuang: "???!!!"
A moment later, just as Mu Shuangshuang couldn't help but want to get up and rush out to interrupt the spellcasting.
"Achoo!!!! Oh my god! I've been holding this sneeze in for ages, and it finally came out!"
"Clang... gurgle gurgle..."
Mu Shuangshuang slipped and fell into the bathtub, nearly drowning in the bathwater.
Mu Shuangshuang, who had just gotten up, was flushed and wished she could rush out right now and give that brat a good beating!
Why are you so easily startled by a sneeze?
However, when she calmed down, she was surprised to find that she had actually felt a surge of indignation when she thought the two were about to do something.
I was so angry and felt so wronged!
He left her here soaking alone, and then started showing off their affection as if no one else was around.
They really don't care about the little scorpion's feelings at all...
Thinking of this, Mu Shuangshuang gritted her teeth fiercely.
Mustering his courage, he shouted, "Shen Yunhao!"
"Whoosh!"
The two people sitting on the edge of the bed had their heads five centimeters apart and were almost about to kiss. Hearing this sudden shout, Zhu Li was so startled that she raised her hand and pushed Shen Yunhao away.
With a thud, Shen Yunhao sat down on the ground, looking completely bewildered and questioning his life choices.
Just a little bit!
It was so close!
Zhu Li blushed deeply and turned her head away, not daring to look at him.
"She...she's calling you!"
Shen Yunhao took a deep breath, three black lines appearing on his forehead, and gritted his teeth, saying, "You stinky scorpion, what do you want to say? Speak up now! Otherwise, I'll throw you out!"
Mu Shuangshuang was clearly unaware that she had thwarted a good show. Hearing Shen Yunhao's unfriendly tone, she immediately cowered and crouched down, stammering, "The water... the water's cold, could you add some hot water..."
"..."
Shen Yunhao remained silent for a long time before suddenly standing up.
"Okay! Let me add some for you..."
As he spoke, he walked toward the screen.
"Add hot water?"
Two seconds later, Zhu Li suddenly realized what was happening, and her figure vanished from the spot with a whoosh.
"You brat! What do you think you're doing!"
Shen Yunhao, who had just walked to the screen, was instantly thrown over by a strong force. When he looked up again, Xiaobailong was already standing in front of him with his arms crossed.
"What? You really want to go in?"
"..."
Oh no! Just a little bit more...
Shen Yunhao inwardly lamented his loss, but outwardly he said righteously, "What nonsense! I was just pretending. Sister Li'er, don't overthink it. Even if I go in, I'll close my eyes and not look at her!"
"hehe……"
Zhu Li rolled her eyes: "No need for you to bother, I'll add it myself..."
Shen Yunhao returned to the bedside dejectedly.
I failed to gain any advantage twice, this time I suffered a huge loss...
Behind the screen, Mu Shuangshuang squatted in the bathtub with her legs wrapped around her waist. Noticing the commotion outside, she couldn't help but feel a little smug.
"You lecherous brat, you deserve it..."
However, her smugness vanished the next moment.
"What...what do you want to do?"
"It's alright, I'll use magic to heat it up for you!"
"Alright, alright, the temperature's right! That's fine!"
"No! It's hot enough already, there's really no need to add any more!"
"Ouch! It's scalding hot! Let me out! Are you playing at boiling a scorpion in lukewarm water?"
"..."
Back in the room, the little white dragon's shy demeanor had completely vanished. Looking at Shen Yunhao, she coldly snorted, "I forgot to ask you, where did you get this dead scorpion from? And how long have you two been sneaking around here?"
