After receiving Ye Feng's promise, Shion gave him a delighted kiss and left.
Ren Xiaoyao was about to follow her when Ye Feng called him back.
Ren Xiaoyao was in a very poor state, radiating dejection, with none of his former confidence and carefree ease on his face.
Ye Feng knew that Ren Xiaoyao was still brooding over what had happened to Wansi.
Seeing this, Ye Feng gave Miroku a meaningful look.

"Still thinking about Wansi?"
Ren Xiaoyao froze slightly. Knowing that Ye Feng was concerned about him, he forced a smile and said:

With that, Ye Feng turned and left.
