Liu Ruyan, covering her burning cheeks, rushed all the way from the Uncle Niu's Kitchen God restaurant back to Liu Hong's residence.
She burst through the main door in a flurry, darted into her room, and buried her head under the covers.
"So embarrassing! So embarrassing!"
Liu Hong, who had witnessed the whole thing, was completely baffled. 'What's wrong with her? What happened?'
'Could it be Mo Qi?'
'That's impossible.'
'Didn't I already chase away those little brats from the Mountain and Sea Empire?'
'With those three old-timers from the Secret Realm backing him, he should be fine.'
Unable to make heads or tails of it, Liu Hong yanked Liu Ruyan out from under the covers.
"Kiddo, what in the world is wrong? Did someone bully you? Tell your grandpa, and I'll skin him alive!"
Hearing this only made Liu Ruyan more embarrassed. 'How could I possibly say it out loud!'
