Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Uh, uh, uh...

For some reason, hearing Red Dragon Shadow say that, Rose felt somewhat disappointed.

Maybe it was because his response was so far from what she had hoped for.

"Thank you, Great God Red Dragon Shadow, for going through the trouble," Rose said, regardless. She still owed him thanks.

Actually, upon further thought, Red Dragon Shadow had saved her and even gone to great lengths for her, which was already quite honorable.

If he had been as indifferent as those assassins, she might now be crippled, missing an arm or both legs.

After the thanks, the atmosphere in the cabin became eerily quiet.

Since Rose did not recognize herself, Xia Liu didn't know what to chat with her about.

Rose had her own concerns.

Red Dragon Shadow was the king of the Underground World, and she was just a weak woman who couldn't even beat Loki, who was number eight on the Blood List. What right did she have to make small talk with Red Dragon Shadow?

Ding, ding, ding...

As the two sat in silence, suddenly, Rose's phone rang.

She looked at Xia Liu, somewhat bemused.

Having this happen in front of her idol was downright embarrassing.

"Answer the call, don't mind me," Xia Liu said warmly.

With Xia Liu's permission, Rose turned around, took out her phone, and answered it right away.

She couldn't even think about turning it off now.

Because Great God Red Dragon Shadow had told her to answer it.

"Hello, Yanzi, what are you up to?" Rose started talking in fluent Huaxia as soon as she answered the call.

Thinking that Red Dragon Shadow couldn't understand, her tone was a bit rushed and even carried a hint of anger and resentment.

"Sister Rose, the kids heard you'll visit them tomorrow, and they can't sleep. It's past one o'clock already," came a bitter voice from the phone.

Rose was taken aback and a bit embarrassed, then adjusted her mood and said, "Yanzi, try to soothe them. I'll try to come over earlier tomorrow."

"Hmm-hmm, I'm trying hard, but how about you? Have you found a suitable task?" Yanzi asked worriedly.

"There's one, and there's something else. I saw my idol today! And I'm in the same room with him right now!"

Rose sneaked a peek at Xia Liu, noticed he was bending over, stirring the flames with a twig, and then she boasted to Yanzi.

"Your idol! Is it Treading Snow Without a Trace Movement?"

"Treading Snow Without a Trace Movement is my junior idol. I'm with the great idol right now," Rose said excitedly.

Because she was speaking in Huaxia, she wasn't afraid of Red Dragon Shadow overhearing her chat with Yanzi, which was why she dared to discuss him and Treading Snow Without a Trace Movement so freely.

"The great idol? You mean Red Dragon Shadow??"

"Yes! The Great God Red Dragon Shadow! Let me tell you, someone challenged me earlier, and at the crucial moment, Great God Red Dragon Shadow saved me..."

"My god! You are so lucky to have been saved by the Great God Red Dragon Shadow," Yanzi said enviously after hearing Rose's bragging.

"Yeah, I'm just that lucky, it's just a pity that after entering the cabin, he didn't do anything to me."

Pfft!

Yanzi and Xia Liu both burst out laughing at that very moment.

Fortunately, Rose was focused on the phone and did not notice anything off about Xia Liu.

"Oh my dear sister, what do you expect Great God Red Dragon Shadow to do to you? Stop being silly. He's the king of the Blood List, not someone we can reach," Yanzi splashed a bucket of cold water on Rose's head with her words.

"Hey, I get it, a little fantasy never hurt, right? You should head to bed early; I'll hurry over as soon as dawn breaks."

After a bit of idle chit-chat, Rose and Yanzi ended their phone call.

"Phew... Honored Great God Red Dragon Shadow, I hope I didn't disturb you?" Rose said, slightly blushing as she looked at Xia Liu. They always conversed in English in the chat group.

Because she didn't believe there would be others from Huaxia on the Blood List just like her.

She had grown up abroad since she was young. If it weren't for a grandfather who spoke the Huaxia language, she probably wouldn't be able to speak it either.

"No worries, I'm quite bored too. Even though I didn't understand what you and your friend were talking about, I could tell you were happy," Xia Liu responded in English.

"Hehe, my friend runs an orphanage. We were talking about the children. They have so many fun stories every day, and we just ended up laughing together as we chatted."

...

Hearing Rose's fanciful explanation, Xia Liu suppressed a burst of laughter, offered a slight smile, and nodded, continuing the discussion about children with her.

Ever since Rose discovered that her idol, the Great God Red Dragon Shadow, also liked children, she seemed to have become a different person, much more lively.

And somehow, the appearance of her face began to change.

It reverted to that charming, adorable face—bewitchingly sexy and radiantly lovely!

In the morning, to the crisp sound of flowing water, Rose slowly opened her eyes.

Upon waking, she immediately checked her clothing and found it hadn't been tampered with.

And there was a blanket covering her.

A memory struck her, and her face turned pale. She then quickly ran out of the cabin.

"You're up, have some breakfast," Xia Liu said as he offered Rose a deliciously roasted big fish.

"Honored Great God Red Dragon Shadow, I'm sorry for imposing on your cabin," Rose said, her face flushing with many shades of red as she awkwardly apologized to Xia Liu.

"It's fine, no one has visited here in a long time, and you're very pretty. You add a lot of life to this place."

"Ah..." Rose touched her cheek, realizing for the first time that her face had reverted to its usual state.

Flushed with the compliment from her idol, her face grew even redder.

After a simple wash by the river, she returned to the cabin to join her idol for the roasted fish.

Although she was close to Red Dragon Shadow, Rose was very puzzled.

You could say she couldn't see her idol's face clearly last night because it was dark.

But now it was broad daylight, and still, she could not see his face clearly.

Even though he was wearing a black robe that covered his entire body.

No matter what, his face was always partially obscured.

It must have been some magic.

After many sneaky glances at her idol's face and still not being able to discern his features, Rose gave up.

After breakfast, she was about to leave for the orphanage.

"Thousand Faces Rose, last night you mentioned those orphans to me. I feel I have the means to help them, will you assist me in this?" Xia Liu asked suddenly, just as Rose was about to say goodbye and leave.

"Ah! Honored Great God Red Dragon Shadow, you like children too?"

It was such an unexpected surprise that Rose was nearly at a loss for how to react.

"Yes," Xia Liu responded with no further comment, simply nodding.

"That's wonderful! I can take you to the orphanage. The children will definitely love you!" Rose was extremely excited.

She didn't know how to express her emotions. The king of the Underground World actually liked children and was now about to accompany her to make a donation. This was just too good, too wonderful!
