Although the amount of pearls Xavier and Isaac had dived for was enough, Jasmine was not in a hurry to set off for the White City right away.
She still had to wait for Angus to transport the coal dust and coal slag back and finish processing them before she could hit the road.
After dinner, Xavier obediently went to take a bath, but before leaving, he gathered his share of the pearls back into the backpack, hugged it with his two front paws, and flew out unsteadily.
Black lines formed on Jasmine's forehead as she watched Xavier pack the pearls to take away. Without needing to guess, she knew what Xavier wanted to do. When Xavier reached the door, Jasmine couldn't help but remind him: "It is not early anymore, do not stay in the public bathhouse for too long."
"I know." Xavier turned his head and replied, looking very happy. In his heart, he was calculating how to wash each of his pearls until they were crystal clear and shining brilliantly.
