"Huh? Ma-master?!" Huan made a bewildered look. {Oh, no! I am screwed.}

Suddenly, a hand patted his head and his hair.

"Ma-master." Confused he looked upward and made a stunning look. Yuan was looking at him smiling, and it wasn't like the other smiles he had seen, this was a natural, a genuine one.

"Relax, why are tensing up? Did you think I would punish you?" Yuan spoke. "Come on get up."

"Th-thanks, master." Huan was still processing the whole event. "I will continue."
