Zuko had just finished eating some grilled chicken wings on a skewer. He glanced at Toph, wishing he could use that bamboo skewer on him.

“Mom was right about you.”

“What do you mean?” Toph asked, confused.

Zuko gritted out two words through his teeth, “Too dramatic!”

With that, he got up and left, heading over to where Chris and the others were.

Toph remained bewildered but was tempted by the lively scene on the other side. He had a natural desire for lively atmospheres.

He smiled and picked up his paintbrush to sketch the scene. He outlined everyone else, but he drew meticulously when it came to a certain person. That person stood out oddly in the sketch.

With everything settled, it was time for Chris and Lena’s wedding.

Zuko also wanted to contribute, so he had been staying at home these past few days, discussing plans with his parents to carefully arrange things for his dear cousin.

“Chris and Lenny prefer things to be quiet, so there’s no need for a big ceremony. Something small and pleasant will suffice.”

Zephyr took various treasures from a box to use as gifts. Cordelia noticed a set of pink pearl jewelry. “This one is perfect. Lenny will look great in it!”

Zuko hesitated. “Mom, isn’t this the set Grandpa Rowan gave you? I remember these pearls are a specialty from the waters around Southeast Aciatic.”

“Yes, but…” Cordelia blinked. “The pink is so delicate, and how old am I now? It doesn’t suit me anymore!”

“Who said that?” Zephyr retorted, trying to put the pearl jewelry away, but Cordelia slapped his hand away.
