After leaving the waterfall, Yang Wei and Zhu Wenqian arrived back at the cliff as they set up a formation.
"Ugh, can't believe this dignified queen must run away from those Killer Bees." Zhu Wenqian complained as she sat down on the ground.
"Eh, what are you standing there for, Yang Wei?" Zhu Wenqian asked when she noticed Yang Wei stood still like a statue.
"Did you turn into an idiot after getting rejected?"
Yang Wei had his back facing Zhu Wenqian as he shook his head.
"Why would I turn into an idiot?" Yang Wei asked.
"Isn't it obvious? You tried to persuade the damn Ice Egg and you got the cold shoulder treatment." Zhu Wenqian laughed as she mocked Yang Wei's failure.
.
Yang Wei turned around and stared at Zhu Wenqian. With a bright smile, Yang Wei opened his mouth to speak.
"There was a time when a minister tried to invite an expert to help him out. However, he was rejected ruthlessly and the expert even shouted that he did not want to see the minister ever again."
Yang Wei then paused slightly as he sat in front of Zhu Wenqian. "Now tell me, what did you think the minister did in response?"
Zhu Wenqian pondered for a few moments as she tried to think of multiple scenarios.

"Nope, try again."
"The minister was left in a fuming rage as he killed the expert for disrespecting him?"
"Wrong again!"
Zhu Wenqian pouted as she continued to answer multiple but similar responses of her guess.
However, every time she finished her guess, Yang Wei would shake his head and tell her to try again.
"Damn it, I'm not guessing anymore." Zhu Wenqian shouted angrily. "There is no right answer since I'm sure you're just playing around with me."
Yang Wei laughed heartily at her attitude. "I'm not trolling you, Zhu Wenqian. The answers you gave me are all wrong."
Zhu Wenqian still held a doubtful look on her face as she refused to believe Yang Wei's words.
"Fine, swear to heaven that you aren't lying." Zhu Wenqian demanded.
Yang Wei twitched his mouth. He was dumbfounded that Zhu Wenqian would make him swear to heaven for a minor thing like this.
"Is it really necessary?" Yang Wei asked.
"Tch, you made me guess your story outcome so it's a given that you would do what I say." Zhu Wenqian snorted coldly.
Yang Wei heaved a soft sigh as he nodded his head and swore to heaven.
"Alright, what is your final guess then?" Yang Wei then asked.
Seeing how Yang Wei really swore an oath to heaven, Zhu Wenqian began to wrinkle her brows as she tried her best to guess.
Sometime later, Zhu Wenqian said her guess in full confidence. "The minister was disappointed and left the expert alone as he tried to find another expert to help him out?"
Since all her previous answers were about the minister getting angry and killing the expert. This time, she decided to change her response to the minister being a reasonable man.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei smiled slightly as he opened his mouth. Zhu Wenqian held a smug expression as she prepared to hear Yang Wei saying she was correct.
Alas, her expectation was not even close to the reality when Yang Wei spat two words at her.
"Wrong again!"
"WHAT??!" Zhu Wenqian screamed in anger as she stood up with her fist clenching tightly.
"How is it still wrong, Yang Wei?" She asked.
Yang Wei curled his lips upward and said, "Do you want me to reveal the answer to you?"
Zhu Wenqian nodded her head vigorously.
She was itching to find out what the outcome of his story was and she would be enraged if her answer was really close to the answer.

Yang Wei smiled, "The outcome was that the minister went back home when the expert rejected him. However, the very next day, the minister would go back to the expert's home again to convince him to help him out."
Zhu Wenqian held a dumbfounded expression as she continued to listen to Yang Wei's answer.
"The minister made three personal visits to the expert before finally managing to convince the expert to help him out."
"And? That's it… what a crappy outcome is that?" Zhu Wenqian twitched her mouth when the outcome was nothing like what she had guessed.
If she was the minister, she would have dragged the expert to help her out whether the expert is willing or not willing.
"What's the point of telling that story to me then?" Zhu Wenqian then asked as she found it confusing that Yang Wei would suddenly become a storyteller for no reason.
Yang Wei lay down on the ground. "I thought I was being very obvious of my intention already."
"Although the Ice Egg has rejected my pleas, that doesn't mean it would reject me tomorrow or even the day after." He added.
Zhu Wenqian held an O shape in her mouth as she realized what Yang Wei's next step was about.
"You wanted to follow that story logic and make three personal visits to convince the Ice Egg for help?" Zhu Wenqian asked.
"Finally, you're using your brain for once instead of becoming angry." Yang Wei laughed as he teased her.
Zhu Wenqian crossed her arms. "Hmph, I shouldn't have dragged you back then and allowed you to turn into a frozen statue."
She then laid down on the ground as well.
If people were to intrude again, they would think that they were two bickering couples that sleep next to each other.
As Zhu Wenqian continued to complain about how much she regretted saving Yang Wei, the buzzing noises around the sky became louder.
"Damn those Killer Bees." Zhu Wenqian clicked her tongue. "Just wait till this queen recovers her strength and kills them all."
