"Oh," Ah Dai nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "I, Ah Dai, swear that from today, I will serve as Miss Xuan Yue's attendant for one year without leaving. If I break this oath, I shall never be able to eat delicious steamed buns again. Is that okay?"
Xuan Yue said, "That's fine. Let it be so. Oh, go outside and see if you see anyone dressed as a knight wearing silver armor, and come back quickly to tell me."
Ah Dai asked, "Yue Yue, your father has come to look for you. Why won't you go back with him? Doesn't he treat you well?"
Xuan Yue shook her head and said softly, "It's not that he doesn't treat me well; it's just that life in the church is really dull, and it's more fun outside. Once my injury heals, shall we go be mercenaries for a few days?"
Ah Dai glanced at Xuan Yue and thought to himself how nice it would be to have a father who cared about him! Thinking of his father, he remembered the deceased Owen, and his eyes reddened, almost shedding tears.
