He saw the girls opening their mouth and stopped them. "Please, let me explain. Please..."

He could see a small vein popping up on Kendra's forehead and rushed to explain himself.

"I heard some cultivators talking badly about you. I actually wanted to beat them up into pulp but thought about you. So I tried to make friends with them and spoke well in your stead." He looked at his hands with a worried expression. He really didn't want her to hate him. 

She could see the girls having serious expression but let him continue. "What happened next?"

This time he closed his eyes as his face became red in anger. "I tried changing their attitude by giving them gifts and telling them about your positive aspects. But who would have thought..." He pressed his lips while his hands became fists and his knuckles became white.

Gloria couldn't look at him anymore and explain. "In the end, people started trashing you behind your back just to get his attention."

Kendra rolled her eyes. "So now I have a bad reputation, even tho I was not even doing anything. So about my reputation... What kind of person am I now in eyes of other cultivators?"

Bess glanced at the young man and sighed. She knew he meant it good, but made the wrong move. She wanted to say something to support him, bit heard Rorry talking. 

"You became nasty, overbearing and disrespectful person that is holding in Grandmasters thigh and use his power for your own wishes and needs." Rorry shook her head. "The way they spoke about you, if I didn't know you, I'd dislike you to the bone." 

Someone is moving against her and using this dumb fool. Kendra looked at Cethin's stiff expression and sighed. "I understand your motion. But making friends is not easy. There will be always those that dislike me. I just need to concentrate on those that are my true friends. If people can't understand my being, why do I have to get all worked up? I live for myself, not for others. Hate... is an ugly feeling. I don't want it. If someone likes that feeling, let them enjoy it and turn ugly and rotten. Tsk."

Her words clearly meant she didn't care about all those gossipers and she just needed people that cared about her.

He glanced at her and saw that she was no more angry. His face suddenly brightened up. "Then you forgive and accept to be my wife?"

Zami was about to drink tea and suddenly spewed it all over his face. She started coughing and laughing loudly. "Ahahaha, you... Oh, my belly hurts." She held her stomach as Rorry punched her lightly. The other two shook their heads.

Kendra saw him slowly standing up with a pale expression and summoning water. He then started washing his face and shook as he saw his robe being tainted by spewing tea. "How dirty..."

Oh, no. He has OCD!

She looked at Zami and she stopped laughing. Zami could see his discomfort and felt apologetic. "Hey, pretty boy. It was not my real intention to do this. It was accident. You shocked me with your sentence. Sorry."

Cethin stopped in his movement. He clearly could hear the sincerity in her words, but still held a little grudge in his heart. "I'm a man, not a boy."

The girls simultaneously rolled their eyes and nudged Zami. She could see him staring at her and sighed. "Yes, yes, you are the man. I give up."

He rose his head proudly, almost victoriously and smiled. "Then I shall forgive you. The food is here."

He graciously waved her off, making Zami almost curse. She stopped as she felt small hands from both sides patting her under the table and she just huffed. 

Rorry and Grace chuckled as they saw her giving up. They could see a few people glancing towards them and they wanted to stop the fight. Who knows until when this crazy situation would last?

Kendra could see some people pointing in their direction but smiled. So what? Maybe it's better. People won't bother me then so much. 

As the food was served Cethin rushed to fill Kendra's plate and almost made her hit him again. 

"I like to enjoy my food. Will you please stop mixing sweet and salty!" He put meat, vegetables, rice, potatoes, noodles and ice team together, making Kendra feel woozy. 

Who wants to eat this mess?

So she pushed the plate towards him and filled her plate on her own. She beautifully arranged meat, potatoes and vegetables and made girls sigh in astonishment. Food can be this pretty?

He looked at her plate and then at the food on the plate he arranged and sighed. He wouldn't eat this mess, why would she? With this plate he probably made her think lowly of him.

So he started arranging a plate as well. This time with sweets. He realized she likes to separate it. If she already ate salty, he can arrange sweet, right?

Girls could see him carefully trying to arrange it and then turned their eyes towards Kendra that ate, but stared at the plate he had in front of him. Somehow she knew he did it for her, so she wanted to see how it will look on end.

Everyone in the dining room could see his movements and turned to look closely. Silence enveloped the surroundings while the group at the table continued to eat as if nothing was going on.

Just as he finished and he was looking if his work of art was good enough, a hand came closer and snatched the plate.

He turned his head furiously and almost puked blood in anger...
