Chapter 145: One Hundred and Forty-Fifth

Adrien didn't know...

He had no way of knowing, right?

"Is that it?"

"W-What is what?" She stammered, feigning ignorance.

It was difficult, but she was trying her best.

She had no idea why this was happening to her.

This wasn't some shoujo manga!

It didn't make any sense that she'd just get randomly embarrassed or flustered like a schoolgirl over things like that!

She was a full grown woman!

This was a serious situation!

She needed to learn some self control.

"This carving... is it the one to continue from here?" Adrien asked again, frowning in concern as he held out the carving in question.

"Y-yeah."

"Excellent. That is also what I thought." He nodded in satisfaction, adding the carving to the sorted stack. He moved towards the next one, looking over the next in line. He stopped abruptly and peered closely at the image for several seconds.
