Chapter 379: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [379]
Despite her earlier declaration to "take the lead," Matori found herself flustered the moment she arrived at the beach.
Once again, it was clear that when it came to these situations, Matori was all talk.
When reality hit, the confident bravado she'd displayed about taking control was nowhere to be found.
"You really didn't have to distance yourself so much," Luo Yuan teased, watching her hide on the far end of the beach, nearly burying herself in the sand.
Ever since she arrived, Matori had been acting like this.

"Fresh Alolan coconut—I just picked it. Want to try?" Luo Yuan asked, using telekinesis to crack one open and holding it out toward her.
Matori flushed red, staring at the coconut in his hand.

While he hadn't said anything yet, Matori knew him well enough to realize he was planning to recreate that moment with her.
