Chapter 489: Chapter 489: The Virtuous Unpolished Jade

The two guards, totally devoted to protecting the Fool, were disoriented after receiving the steamed buns and seriously set to gnawing at them.

And the Fool, after taking a bite of this familiar delicacy, couldn’t help but curve his lips into a smile.

"This truly is the most delicious food I remember."

At that moment, the Bai Family as well as the friends from the Seven-Person Team were all staring intently at the Fool across the dining table.

The Fool himself, after happily eating a steamed bun, finally realized something was amiss.

In his memory, their meals were always like fighting dogs for scraps, each person gobbling down their food.

But today, for the first time ever, he was the only one eating, while they were all staring at him motionless.

Even for the Fool... no, even Yuwen Qi, who had thick skin, now felt embarrassed.

He coughed lightly, asking with some discomfort, "Why aren’t you eating?"

"Are you... better now?" Bai Junjun pointed to her own head.

Li Wenli caught sight of this out of the corner of his eye and silently pushed down the young lady’s rather impolite finger from her head.

"..." Bai Junjun.

Yuwen Qi slightly curved his eyes, "I’m already better, I’ve been a trouble to everyone these days."

"Not at all, not at all." Bai Sasa and Xiao Yu finally came to their senses, nodding their heads.

Yuwen Qi glanced at Bai Sasa and Bai Lingyu and couldn’t help but laugh shyly, continuing to eat the steamed buns seriously.

It wasn’t until the two guards behind Yuwen Qi also silently stretched out their paws wanting to ask their master for a second bun, that Bai Junjun finally came to her senses and composedly took a bun from the large basin.

With Bai Junjun starting, everyone gradually began to eat the steamed buns.

Only Bai Sasa was somewhat melancholically still.

But before long, a bun was passed in front of her, smoothly filled with a layer of beef sauce that looked very appetizing.

Bai Sasa lifted her head in surprise, to see the Fool looking at her with a smiling face, the bun having been passed by the Fool himself.

Bai Sasa was somewhat awkwardly at a loss for words. Usually, the Fool would pass her food, and at that time, she didn’t think much of it. But now, seeing it again, her heart was complex, and she didn’t know what to say.

The Fool, however, didn’t wait for Bai Sasa to speak, but put the bun in Bai Sasa’s hand, "Eat quickly, or there won’t be any left."

"..." Bai Sasa.

Seeing the sharp-witted Fool, Bai Sasa felt sad. In a short while, to avoid the awkwardness, Sasa silently went to the kitchen.

Watching Bai Sasa depart in low spirits, the Fool was startled for a moment.

Bai Junjun sighed, "Sasa is a sensitive and emotional child. She finds it hard to let you go, that’s why she is like this."

The Fool’s eyes dimmed for a moment, his lips curving, "I know."

"You made a decision to come here?"

"Yes." The Fool nodded, "I’m grateful for the care you’ve both shown me. If there is anything you need help with in the future, Yuwen Qi will do his utmost to assist."

While saying this, Yuwen Qi took out two jade pendants from his bosom, "This is my token. With it, you can find me in any Dongsheng Tavern."

Li Wenli and Bai Junjun took the jade pendants and saw that they bore the simple image of a small river.

However, Yuwen Qi’s father was Prince Heqing, so perhaps this small river was their family’s emblem.

"The path you have chosen is bound to be rough, take care of yourself from now on," Li Wenli reminded softly.

"Yes, thank you for the advice." The Fool bowed in thanks once more, and then turned to his two former companions.

"Thank you for your care as well, I’ve been very happy these days."
