“Princess..? I do not deserve such a title.” her fine lips formed a tender smile. “All of these compliments will be the death of me..” she released an melodic chuckle. “My name is Diaochan.”
“It is an honor too meet you, Lord Zhu Ran.” her innocent smile remained on her lips, once again they had parted after taking a few moments to carefully observe this man’s attire. “Correct me if I am wrong, but is it possible you hail from Wu?”
❝ Well, princess or not, angel or not, (though I still believe you’re both those things) I think you’d still top ‘em all. ❞ Diaochan was definitely an angel’s name. He couldn’t forget it even if he wanted to. Was he even worthy of uttering it under his breath?
With a cheeky grin, he strengthens the resolve in his words before giving her a determined nod.
❝ Oh–from the Kingdom of Wu? That I am! ❞
he answers proudly, resting a fist over his chest. ❝ We sport the color red pretty well, huh. ❞
