Winona was still curious. "Why the sudden breakthrough? How did you get over her?"
Keaton was silent for a few seconds before answering. "I don''t know. All of a sudden, I could just talk about her."
Winona: "..."
They looked at each other for a moment, then Keaton cleared his throat. "Hey, uh... don''t go sleeping around, okay? I don''t think that method I taught you is very reliable."
Winona: "..."
"Look at me," Keaton exined. "I slept with so many people and it never helped me get over her. It feels like I was only liberated today. So the whole ''sow your wild oats'' method? It''s a bust."
Winona felt a wave of awkwardness talking about this. She forced herself to ask again, "But how did you really get over her today?"
Keaton replied, "I really don''t know. Maybe I already got over her a few days ago. It''s strange. But I''m sure it wasn''t because I was sleeping around. Anyway, just listen to me. Don''t go sleeping around!"
Winona: "..."
*For crying out loud, I already slept with you, and NOW you''re telling me the method doesn''t work? It sure as hell doesn''t! After sleeping with him, I don''t feel liberated at all. I feel even more anxious!*
"Ancestor!" Keaton suddenly called her name again.
"What?!" Winona snapped, irritated.
Keaton grinned. "Let me see the phone first."
Winonaposed herself, took out her phone, found the video she had just recorded, and showed it to him. "I recorded your conversation so that everyone knows you''re really done with Shifra. It''ll stop her from using you for clout outside."
Keaton seemed to not hear her. He sighed. "I''ve lost a lot of weight. I''m not as handsome as I used to be, am I?"
Winona: "...Can I post this video? Just the first part, not the part where you talk about your first love."
Once the video was out, everyone would know that Keaton and Shifra were well and truly over. Shifra''s days of using him for personal gain were finished. They would finally have a clean break. And only with a clean break would Shifra stop bothering her and Janelle.
But Keaton said, "Why not post that part? Post the whole thing."
Winona looked at him suspiciously. "If you post it, people will get curious about who your first love is. They''ll talk."
"It''s fine," Keaton said. "I''ll answer them openly."
Winona: "... You''re really over her?"
"Yeah. It''s not a lie!"
Winona pursed her lips and took back the phone. "I''ll have someone post it now."
"Can you edit it to make me look more handsome?" Keaton asked.
Winona nodded. "Sure!"
"Do you know how? If not, I''ll do it myself," he offered.
Winona ignored him. "Ancestor," Keaton called.
"I know how!" she snapped.
She went back to the sofa and fiddled with her phone for a while before finding someone to leak the video.
Soon, the video exploded online.
When Keaton saw it, his world came crashing down. He furiously confronted Winona. "Why did you rece my face?!"
"You said to make you look more handsome," Winona said nonchntly.
Keaton''s eyes bugged out. "And you think *that''s* more handsome than me?!" Winona nodded. "I do think it''s more handsome than you. And cuter."
The video showed the Sky City''s cartoon snake mascot edited over Keaton''s head.
Keaton looked at her in disbelief.

"Are those big eyes of yours just for
nation? Or is there something
wrong with them?!"
Winona pressed her lips together and didn''t reply.

After ring at her for a moment, Keaton found a selfie on his phone,
and quote-tweeted the video with a

[The content of this video is true, but the face is wrong. This is what I look like,
folks!]
Instantly, thements under his post flooded in:
Some were fawning over how drop-dead gorgeous he was.
Some were asking about his health.
Some were curious about his first love.
Others were publicly ming Shifra in hisments.
And a special group showed up just
to mock the Sky City''s snake mascot One user''s scathingment read: "Looks
that
snake ate the wrong kind of mushrooms and is seeing things.''
And then there was a whole contingent of Sky City fans who came just to cry.
