Nala knew this merchant was a little bit… out of ordinary, but his sense of humor was something that she couldn't comprehend at all. His joke could be so dark and he would say it with straight face, which would make the other people thought he was serious with what he was saying.
"How can I take that as a joke? Who would make a joke like that?" Nala felt her heart was almost stopped beating.
"I would."
Nala took a deep breath and stared at the little bottle in Lou's hand, which he played between his fingers. "What is that?"
"Hair tonic," Lou replied nonchalantly, as he leaned his back against the pillow and raised the bottle in his hand, as the light from the luminous pearl glinted on it.
"Lou!"
"For your breasts. So, they will get bigger. They are too small for my liking."
"Lou!" Nala felt so embarrassed. No one had ever talked like that to her.
