The little guy secretly noted down their identities.
It was almost ti for the auction to start, and many guests were rushing back to the main courtyard.
Feng Fuce intended to settle Lu Wang, but when he turned around, he found that Bai Zhi’er hadn’t left yet.
The little one stood with her hands behind her back, smiling as she looked at the two of them.
Feng Fuce looked down at her: "You’re not leaving?"
Bai Zhi’er gave a sweet smile: "I haven’t thanked this little brother who helped us yet!"
She was referring to Lu Wang.
At this mont, Lu Wang was standing behind Feng Fuce, with deep eyes full of scrutiny.
He probably understood now.
The mortal girl the Demon Lord spoke of must be this Princess!
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have such patience when speaking to her.
Thinking of the Demon Lord having to reveal his identity for this girl, Lu Wang clenched his fists, his face unfriendly.
Bai Zhi’er walked over to Lu Wang with her little steps, tapping her feet as she went.
She was so petite that compared to the tall Lu Wang, she looked like she was standing before a great mountain.
"Little brother, what’s your na? I’m really grateful for what you did, lucky you caught them!"
Lu Wang furrowed his brows and stared at her, a faint anger burning in his eyes.
He only needed to reach out a hand to snap this little person’s neck.
She looked so tender and fragile.
However, before Lu Wang could make a move, a familiar intense gaze like a knife landed on him from the side.
Lu Wang glanced sideways, seeing Feng Fuce’s clear, cold eyes full of warning.
Feng Fuce’s tone was somber: "The Princess is asking you a question, are you mute?"
Bai Zhi’er quickly patted his arm: "Brother Fu Ce, don’t be so harsh to others!"
At that mont, Lu Wang understood Feng Fuce’s aning in his eyes.
The Demon Lord wanted him to answer this little girl’s question.
He paused for a mont, suppressing the violence in his heart.
"My na is Lu Wang."
"Brother Wangwang, right? Today you helped catch two bad guys, thank you so much, this is for you!"
She took out so candied fruit from her small satchel and offered it to him, smiling.
Lu Wang silently stared at the little one’s tender white hand.
Just a piece of candied fruit, and it’s called a big thank you?
Only Feng Fuce knew that for Bai Zhi’er, the most perfunctory way to express gratitude was to reward with gold and silver.
But if she was willing to share her food with soone, it was a sincere thank you.
After all, she cherished food above everything else.
Lu Wang didn’t like or was interested in mortal food.
However, before he could decline, Feng Fuce patted his shoulder.
"Why not accept the Princess’s gift?" the young man said somberly.
Though Feng Fuce’s two slaps seed light, Lu Wang felt the weight of a thousand pounds!
Lu Wang nearly fell to his knees but managed to stay standing!
In his peripheral vision, he saw the look of nace in the Demon Lord’s eyes.
Was the Demon Lord really so concerned about this little girl’s feelings?
"Here, take it, don’t be polite," Bai Zhi’er said, standing on tiptoe, her eyes smiling.
Lu Wang reached out, took it, and dumbly murmured: "Oh..."
Feng Fuce sneered: "Not going to say thank you?"
Lu Wang: ...
"Thank you," he said reluctantly.
Bai Zhi’er was even more delighted.
"You’re welco, why aren’t you eating it?"
Lu Wang looked at the candied fruit in his hand, falling into silence.
Wasn’t it just enough to play along? Do I actually have to eat it?
Bai Zhi’er blinked her round eyes, looking at him expectantly.
"Don’t worry, it’s not sour. It’s my favorite flavor."
