For the whole day at the start of a new arc, Daoist Panda had been out of it.
He knows exactly how things will happen upon the arrival of the Fleurys anyway. And the next arc after that, and the next, and the next.....
It's all boring and troublesome to deal with. The only thing that keeps him going.....
Is that morning.
That morning when he woke up with Zhe Chouhen watching him sleep.
He could not stop repeating it again and again in his mind. It never goes away. His brain is only occupied with that scene, like a broken record. It keeps him wide awake, yet drowsy and tipsy at the same time.
"Panda-laoshi! Why are you doing this to me!? Why are you pushing me away all of sudden, when I have done nothing wrong to you!? Explain to me, huh! I want to hear you explain, okay!?"
"Sigh... I'm sorry for shouting at you... I...."
"I need you right now."
"I need you so badly, someone I can talk to about..... about myself."
