Because Russell was originally scheduled to visit Spring Island tonight to partake in the encirclement and suppression of the Monkey-faced Eagle.
Therefore, upon hearing Wolf Sound's request, Russell pondered for a moment.
"Good strategy, but I think I'd like to make a slight adjustment."
"What?"
"No, nothing. It's just that Cui Que and I have some things we need to do right now…"
Russell said with a light chuckle, glancing at Cui Que who sat beside him.
Cui Que, noticing Russell's gaze, giggled and bowed her head on the table, tilting her head to look at Russell. One of her ears stood erect while the other drooped, and the erect ear even gave a slight twitch.
Seeing her reaction, Wolf Sound's eyebrows gave a small twitch and he hesitated: "Are you two… planning to meet the parents?"
"I'm an orphan,"
Russell replied without hesitation: "I have no parents to bring Floddi to meet."
