Chapter 4409: Uninvited Guest

“Ah… This…”

Chu Feng had no idea how he should respond at all.

He was afraid that he would hurt Long Xiaoxiao if he were to refuse publicly. She was the lofty princess of the Dragon Clan after all.

But if he didn’t reject her, it would only cause a misunderstanding to Long Xiaoxiao and her mother.

“It hasn’t been long since Feng’er met Princess Xiaoxiao, and there’s no deep relationship between the two of them yet. I heard from Feng’er that he’s deeply grateful to Princess Xiaoxiao for helping him on one occasion, and it’s due to that that he came to the Dragon Clan and braved through danger to help Princess Xiaoxiao during her time of need.

“Alright, mother. You should quit it with the jokes now. Look at how you’ve scared my little benefactor.”

As Long Xiaoxiao said those words, she flashed a beaming smile toward Chu Feng before continuing on, “Little benefactor, you shouldn’t take what my mother said to heart. She’s just joking with you. You might not know her well since you have just met her, but she likes to pull people’s legs.”

Long Xiaoxiao’s smile was very sweet, such that it was hard not to believe that her mother was really joking.

Hearing those words, Long Xiaoxiao’s mother fell silent. The smile on her face looked much less graceful than before, and the gaze she shot toward
