A mysterious woman emerged from the Prince's chamber early in the morning, instantly shocking the entire East Sea Dragon Palace.
The Turtle Prime Minister hurried over to apologize, saying, "Your Highness, I am an old fool. Last night, I mistook her for an enemy. Please forgive me."
The Dragon King coughed and said seriously, "My son, if you need money for a room, just tell your father. After all, it’s not good to have such influences at home."
The Dragon Princess pointed at Long Yuan with a pained expression and exclaimed, "A Yuan, you are truly disappointing. Ms. Xiao Man told me that you didn’t even kiss her! How could you have watched so many Spring Palace Pictures and still be like this? You’ve let me down."
Long Yuan silently accepted the criticism and quietly escorted Yu Xiaoman to the door. Along the way, he didn’t remember much of what she said and couldn’t understand why she looked so excited when she waved goodbye.
Yu Xiaoman's excitement had its reasons; she was determined to fulfill a wish for her benefactor—she wanted to meet Chang'e!
As for why she wanted to meet Chang'e, she wasn't quite sure herself. However, their conversation as they walked went something like this—
Yu Xiaoman: "A Yuan, I’m going home now, but I haven’t repaid you yet."
Long Yuan: "Oh..."
Yu Xiaoman: "What do you want as repayment? To pledge myself?"
Long Yuan: "Sigh..."
Yu Xiaoman: "But you already refused to force yourself on me last night... How about you make a wish instead!"
Yu Xiaoman: "What do you want? Like stars or the moon?"
Long Yuan: "The moon... because Chang'e is inside it..."
And thus, Long Yuan's wish was born.
Yu Xiaoman clenched her fists, unable to hide her excitement as she constantly motivated herself to fulfill this wish for him.
As soon as she returned home, she couldn't wait to find her elder brother.
When Yu Renjie saw his little sister running back with red eyes, he completely misunderstood her condition. He thought she had just been crying and comforted her gently, saying, "Yu Xiaoman, if you can't leap over the Dragon Gate this year, there's always next year. You're still young."
Yu Xiaoman nodded, panting as she asked, "Brother, how can I meet Chang'e?"
"Chang'e?" Yu Renjie was taken aback.
Yu Xiaoman clutched his sleeve tightly, her eyes filled with hope as she inquired, "Do you know Chang'e, Brother?"
Yu Renjie clenched his fist and coughed awkwardly into it. "I'm not very familiar with her..."
Yu Xiaoman's face fell in disappointment. Seeing this, Yu Renjie quickly added, "But someone is familiar with her."
"Who?" Yu Xiaoman asked excitedly.
"Tian Peng Marshal!"
There was no other choice; to protect his little sister's tender heart, Yu Renjie had to seek help from a friend of a friend of a friend.
Who didn't know that Tian Peng had a heart full of warmth?
But he forgot that Tian Peng also had a fiery passion!
When Long Yuan found Yu Xiaoman, she was squatting outside the Southern Heavenly Gate, bored out of her mind as she drew circles in the dirt with her finger, muttering to herself.
You see, when Long Yuan learned that Yu Xiaoman had gone to seek help from Tian Peng Marshal to fulfill his offhand comment about a "wish," which indirectly led to Tian Peng being punished and banished from the heavenly realm for teasing a fairy, he was completely stunned. He even lost his composure and tripped over the threshold, nearly falling flat on his face.
He had merely mentioned that there was a Chang'e in the moon; who would have thought she would take it so seriously?
He couldn't help but wonder to himself whether he should call her simply foolish or naively silly.
But when he saw her, so silly and clumsy, with a face full of grievance and tears brimming in her eyes, his heart inexplicably skipped a beat, and his pulse quickened for no reason.
"Hey!" He raised a hand to pat his wildly beating chest, then leaned down and gently patted her shoulder.
Yu Xiaoman looked up at the sound, staring blankly at him for a second, as if confirming whether he was the one she had been longing for day and night. Then, with a sudden leap, she sprang up like a joyful little deer and rushed towards him.
"A Yuan... Wuwuwu... It's all my fault..."
She threw herself into Long Yuan's arms, crying uncontrollably, her shoulders shaking as her voice was thick with nasal sounds.
Long Yuan instinctively wanted to push her away, but as his hand reached out, for some reason it turned into a gentle pat on her back, so tender that even he didn't realize it: "It takes two to tango; Tian Peng is destined for this calamity, so you can't blame yourself."
"But... but... he's so miserable..." Yu Xiaoman's tears fell like raindrops, soon soaking a large patch of Long Yuan's shoulder. The warmth of her tears seemed to drip onto Long Yuan's heart.
"Though he has been cast down to the mortal realm, it’s not that bad... right?" Long Yuan said this out loud while thinking to himself that he had heard that guy was living it up in the Mortal Realm, thriving quite well.
As soon as Yu Xiaoman heard the words "Mortal Realm," it was as if she had been electrified; her delicate body trembled violently. "I want to find him."
Long Yuan stared at her in shock with wide eyes before teasingly saying, "A day in heaven is a year on earth. Where do you plan to find him? Besides, he’s turned into a pig... um... quite plump and round. Even if you find him, what then? Do you expect him to return to the celestial realm?"
Yu Xiaoman sniffled, her red nose resembling a ripe cherry as she shouted loudly, "I want to pledge myself!"
