You Won't Be Leaving Either

They never expected Tang Lan to treat a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone with such calm indifference.

Nor had they expected him to make such a generous, selfless, and utterly inconceivable decision.

Wang Dong's hands trembled,

but she ultimately accepted the soul bone.

Her eyes were filled with gratitude and resolve,

and she choked out,

From this day onward, I will work twice as hard

Her lips quivered slightly,

and tears shimmered in her eyes,

as though the soul bone carried an immeasurably weighty debt of gratitude.

as though he were trying hard to restrain his emotions.
