Su Lingyue showed an uncertain look when reuniting with her pet, which looked completely different from how she remembered. Just like the other customers, she would have believed that Su Ping snatched it away and gave her another pet if not for the pet contract still in place.
The Phantom Flame Beast had remained lethargic in the shop since morning. As soon as it saw Su Lingyue coming, it shook free from Su Ping's hand and bounced into Su Lingyue's arms, leaving two streams of tears behind.
"Miaaa!"
Su Lingyue gently stroked its head. She almost asked "what have you done to my pet," but managed to change that phrase into something more proper.
"Why does it look so… odd?"
