The monkeys in the tree looked less wary as they peeked over at Ruanruan and the others.
"Monkey King, may we pick some dates?"
Ruanruan's finger touched the scales under the Snow Dragon's chin, and with her other hand, she waved to the monkeys above as a greeting.
The Monkey King of this group had changed, replaced by a younger and stronger monkey.
However, their relationship with Ruanruan remained unchanged.
The Monkey King plucked some winter dates from the tree, its tail coiling around a branch while its hind foot swung down.
It directly brought several dates over to Ruanruan, stuffing them into her hands, one after another.
Seeing she couldn't hold that many, it tossed the rest into their basket.
Ruanruan took out a piece of candy, unwrapped it, and handed it to the Monkey King.
The Monkey King eagerly stuffed it into its mouth.
