Chapter 1246
“Wow, you’re good! Your rank is so high?”
“Of course!” Desiree proudly showed her equipment. “Look at these. Not only did they cost me a lot of
pocket money, but also a lot of effort!”
“I have a lot of equipment too, but my level is not as high as yours!” Toph gave her a thumbs-up. “It
seems like you’ve deployed your resources well. Very strategic!”
“Cough…” Renee’s expression changed as she looked at Toph, chuckling lightly, “ying games all
day long… Be careful not to let it consume you!”
“Renee, you don’t understand!” Desireeughed, “This game is called God of War, and it’s incredibly
fun! You start as a small soldier and gradually rise to be a general, expanding your territory step
by step. The game tests your patience, perseverance, strategic thinking, and more!
“Heh! Maybe you won’t quite understand anyway since most girls like you don’t enjoy ying military
games.”
Renee nced at her. “Aren’t you a girl?”
“Her?” Toph burst intoughter. “She’s not. She’s our bro!”
“That’s right!” Desiree squinted. “It’s strange. I feel like I should’ve been born a boy. I get along better
with boys, and our discussions are more in sync! I guess I was meant to be a boy!”
Desiree paused the game to look at Zuko with a smile, tilting her body slightly toward him. “Isn’t that so,
Zuko?”
Zuko did not respond and “unintentionally” moved his cushion to the other side of Lina. Now, with a wall
on one side and Lina on the other, no one else could get close to him.
Desiree was taken aback. She froze before she dragged her cushion back to its original position.
“This establishment is so slow. I’m getting parched waiting!” She struggled to find a topic and noticed
Zuko’s cup on the table.
Zuko had moved to another side of Lina, but his cup had yet to follow.
Just as Zuko was about to reach for it, Desiree smirked slyly as she quickly took the cup for a

“Oh, Zuko, I’m so sorry!” She looked at Zuko. “I used your cup… It’s an old habit from childhood, and I
still haven’t changed! Excuse me.”
Lina frowned. Desiree was holding Zuko’s cup that he had not touched. Her expression seemed to be
filled with remorse and guilt, but why did Lina see a hint of smugness and provocation in her gaze?
As she began to doubt her judgment, Zuko smiled and said, “It’s fine. You can use it.”
Desiree smiled as well and looked at Lina. “Lina, you… won’t misunderstand, right? You see, Zuko
says it’s okay… In fact, we were like this when we were young. These two and I are buddies.
Sometimes, we don’t pay too much attention to certain things. Please forgive me! Ask Zuko to tell you
about our childhood stories next time!”
Zuko raised a brow. His smile at Desiree was barely a smile, and his eyes were as cold as ice. “I’m
sorry, I haven’t finished what I said earlier.”
“What?”
“I said, you can use my cup, it doesn’t matter—because I haven’t used it.” Zuko casually picked up
Lina’s cup and took a sip of water.
He had specifically observed that Lina used this cup earlier. The spot where he drank from was where
her lips had touched.
Desiree froze, clutching the cup tightly until her knuckles turned white.
“Oh, really?” Desiree forced a smile. “Zuko, how could you? You’re so careless. Lina’s a girl. She’s
clean. Would she be willing to share a cup with you?”

“You didn’t ask if I was willing or not when you used my cup!” Zuko’s gaze was like a gleaming dagger
thrust directly at Desiree.
Desiree panicked. “W-We are buddies! I’m different from those girls!”
Lina, who had been quiet all along, suddenly spoke in a gentle tone. “Desiree, it’s kind of annoying to
always emphasize genders.”
“Huh?”
Lina smiled and took the cup that Zuko had just used to also take a sip.
“That cup is yours.” Lina raised a brow. “I’m willing to share one with Zuko. He’s my fiance. We’ll share
everything when we get married, so what’s the issue with a cup? Am I right?”
