Zhu Jiao smiled and said, "I really like this little deer, thank you, your Highness, for your gift! It will be perfect company for my rabbits!"
Even though Wei Jiuzhong had intended this gift for someone else, Zhu Jiao had unceremoniously intercepted it. He couldn't refuse now, so he said indifferently, "It's not a matter of whether it's a gift or not. If you like it, take good care of it! I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving first!"
Everyone hurriedly stood up to see him off.
The little deer was left behind, with its watery, frightened eyes evoking compassion in anyone who looked at it.
Su Qing exclaimed, "See, I told you so! Even if we didn't lift a finger, we wouldn't have been able to keep the deer. And you didn't believe me. After all this fuss, it still ended up in our hands!"
Su Luo glared at him, then said to Zhu Jiao, "Why did you have to accept it? My reputation is already ruined, so it doesn't matter to me anymore!"
