Ji Nuan's eyes were sincere and serious. Ya Li, the towering orc, blushed almost instantly. He lifted his head high, but the sunlight shooting directly into his eyes brought tears flowing down.
He quickly lowered his head to wipe the tears from his eyes. "The sun is really glaring today," he muttered.
Ji Nuan's little hand made a small tent above his eyes, looking up at the gentle sunlight, and earnestly nodded his head. "Indeed, it is very glaring. You shouldn't stare directly at it. It's not good for your eyes."
"I want to be your guardian orc, the kind that's purely to protect you," Ya Li said very seriously.
"Meow Meow~" A soft meowing sound attracted the attention of both of them.
Looking down, Ji Nuan saw a tiny furball pawing at his shoes, looking utterly adorable.
Ji Nuan quickly picked up the little creature, "Meow Meow, how did you get here?"
The little one scratched at Ji Nuan's small waist bag, puffing out its chest, "Meow Meow Meow~"
Ji Nuan looked at Ya Li.
