Upon hearing Ning Rongrong's words, Lin Yu was stunned at first, and then a mischievous smirk appeared on his face. He replied nonchalantly, "The Tulip of Luo... I don't have it! I was just teasing you back then. Who knew you'd actually lean in and kiss me? Haha!"
Ning Rongrong widened her eyes in disbelief, staring at this untrustworthy guy in front of her. Her eye sockets quickly filled with tears, a mist swirling within them as if those crystal-clear teardrops were about to roll down the next second. She bit her lower lip, struggling to keep herself from crying out loud, and said in a slightly trembling, low voice, "Lin Yu, you actually lied to me! I'm going to go tell your dad—Uncle Lin!"
Seeing Ning Rongrong's eyes turn red and tears well up because of his teasing, Lin Yu felt a pang in his heart and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her. "Oh dear, my little ancestor, I was just joking with you earlier! Who knew you couldn't take a joke at all?" As he spoke, he hastily and carefully retrieved a Tulip of Luo from his Heart of the Stars.
