No wonder he had always felt there was something different about this man when they first met.
Back then, Xue Qian had noticed how extraordinarily handsome he was. Afterward, he had completely shed his former cowardly disposition. If he wasn't a demon, how could his temperament have changed so much?
Convinced he had discovered the truth, Xue Qian reined in his excitement, coughed softly a few times, and said, "Oh, I understand. You came to see my elder brother."
Shen Yangge, who had just come up with another idea and was about to voice it, was speechless. "..."
The way Xue Qian looked at him sent a chill down his spine. He shook one hand lightly, as though shaking off nonexistent goosebumps, and his sleeve fluttered.
A gust of wind swept past, lifting the little blue feather and sending it drifting away. Xue Qian reached out and caught it in his palm.

Shen Yangge gave him a strange look, exchanged a few casual remarks, then bid the two brothers farewell for the time being and returned to the Shen Residence.
It had been so long since they had last seen each other that Shen Mother's eyes filled with tears the moment he appeared. She stepped forward to look him over carefully and touched his face, her voice tinged with sorrow. "Why has my Yang'er grown so thin?"
"What exactly did you go to do? Have you finished everything His Highness asked of you?"
Shen Yangge caught on immediately and answered with a smile, "Not yet. I just came back for a visit. It's been so long since I last saw you, Mother."
