Shen Wan paused and got onto the carriage.
This Tiger Chariot Jade Carriage Hidden Wheel was designed for lightness, fitted with only a single seat on top. Though extremely comfortable, the interior was not very spacious. Yu Ci sat in the middle and Shen Wan stayed at the corner, yet the sound of their breathing remained audible, looking quite intimate indeed.
"What is Shopkeeper Shen looking for me about?"
"This humble woman's wealth and the lives of my entire lineage rest entirely in the true person's hands. How could I not come?"
This was the first time Shen Wan showed such a respectful attitude in private. The contrast was stark enough to make Yu Ci almost think it was sarcasm, and he paused for a moment before reacting.
Yu Ci gazed at her, his look piercing enough to pass through flesh and bone.
Unbeknownst to them, the boundary of superior and subordinate had already formed clearly between him and Shen Wan.
Obviously, this was driven by the series of developments in recent days. Moreover, they had communicated prior to the great battle, and Shen Wan should have had certain suspicions, which was not surprising.
As for Shen Wan, perhaps feeling the pressure, she softly explained, "Over these years, I have bitterly cultivated the dharma gate bestowed by my lord, and spiritual resonance has arisen naturally. From the ethereal void, I have recognized many figures and learned of certain secrets, yet the true person alone was missing. Yet the true person happens to be the most crucial one. Naturally, I wondered: how could this be?
"If the spiritual resonance is true and undeluded, there can only be those few possibilities."
She still did not state it explicitly, perhaps due to a rational judgment while her emotions found it hard to accept.
