Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu was taken aback, then asked with a wry smile, "Why does Yue'er say he's pitiful?"
Yue'er looked up at her mother, her innocent eyes blinking. "Because I don't talk to him much, so he just sits there quietly. He doesn't talk to anyone else either. And he often stares into space, like he's thinking about something."
She continued, "But when Yue'er talks to him, he's very happy. He smiles, and he lets me call him Master. He also gives Yue'er delicious fruit to eat. Mother, Yue'er secretly saved it for you, even though Big Brother and Little Brother don't get any. They're for you to eat." Like a cunning little fox, she pulled the fruit she had hidden from her space and presented it to her mother as if it were a treasure.
"This is... a Nine-Precious Fruit?"
