"Whoa, a woman's voice? What did you do last night, you brat?"
"Wait a sec..."
Li San obviously heard Leng Yue speaking earlier, and when Xiaofan saw Bai Xue coming over, he told Li San to wait a mont.
"Sothing up?" Xiaofan asked Bai Xue.
"Yes, calling you all to have breakfast. I'll be heading out later, Leng Yue can have breakfast with the captain first."
"Oh, okay." Leng Yue nodded.
Afterwards, Bai Xue left, and Leng Yue returned to her room to change clothes.
Actually, Bai Xue felt uncomfortable seeing Leng Yue dressed like that coming out of Xiaofan's room.
If it had been her lying next to him last night, what would have happened? Of course, Bai Xue now isn't as carefree with Xiaofan as she used to be.
Seeing Leng Yue's strange expression, she was sowhat worried that Leng Yue might beco peculiar like Ruyu did before.
Leng Yue also had so thoughts about what had just happened.
The captain made a call in front of her without any secrecy, but when Bai Xue appeared, he suddenly stopped. Was this intentional, or just a coincidence?
Does the captain distrust Bai Xue? Is there a rift between them?
Such speculation could only be kept in Leng Yue's heart; she couldn't speak, nor could she ask.
"Hey..."
"What's going on?"
After Bai Xue and Leng Yue left, Xiaofan picked up the phone and continued talking to Li San.
"Get Penghai on the phone..."
"Hey, Peng, Xiaofan's looking for you." Li San handed the phone over.
"Hello..."
"You guys shouldn't go near that base anymore."
"Why not? As long as we're careful."
"You're no match for Muto. Going there is just suicide."
"But the Yanhuang Soul has ordered us to seize the opportunity to capture Muto alive..."
"Then do you think there's any chance of capturing alive?" Xiaofan retorted.
"You? We... to fight you head-on, probably not a chance."
"Muto's strength surpasses mine, and I'll honestly tell you, even if all twenty of you attacked together, I could take you all out in ten minutes, believe it?"
"This..."
Xiaofan wasn't exaggerating; scaring them was pointless. He didn't want any more innocent lives lost.
"So what do you suggest we do?"
"Wait for my news. If you trust ..." Xiaofan continued.
"Alright, I trust you."
Without hesitation, Penghai had no reason not to trust Ye Xiaofan. Before eting him, Penghai might have thought Xiaofan was bluffing, but after Xiaofan risked his life to save everyone that night, he needed no proof to fully trust him.
"Give so ti. I'll give you an explanation. Pass the phone back to Li San..."
"Okay."
"Hello, tell , what's with that woman earlier? What are you up to?" Li San asked irritably.
"Just stay put and hold onto the phone, I'll call you back..."
"Explain yourself first!"
"Hungry, let's have breakfast first..."
"Hey, hey, Xiaofan, damn..."
The phone was hung up, leaving Li San scratching his head in frustration. Fortunately, he knew Xiaofan well; if it were anyone else, Li San would have smashed the phone on the spot.
Half an hour later, the phone rang again. But this ti, it was from an unfamiliar number.
"Hello... who is this?"
"Caterpillar..."
"..."
Thud, the na, the call, the voice... Li San's body suddenly froze, breathing beca erratic, his heart started pounding uncontrollably.
"Ruyu?"
"Ah, it's ..."
"I... are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm okay... how about you?"
"I'm good too. How did you get my number?"
"Ah, the captain is beside ; he used my phone to call you."
"Xiaofan? He's with you? Was it Leng Yue speaking earlier? How did you guys end up together?"
"Don't know, I just t the captain."
"Ah, so, you now..."
"I'm not married, and I don't have a boyfriend..."
"Hmm, neither."
"Hee hee... I'm DJing."
"I... I'll ask Xiaofan. If I can, I'll co find you right away."
"Hmm. If you're busy, I can co to you..."
"No, no, I'll co to you. Wait for , don't go anywhere."
"Okay..."
The conversation seed a bit silly, but the atmosphere was very heartwarming.
Tang Tianyou and Penghai saw Li San after hanging up the phone, acting like a fool, scratching around, suddenly giggling like an idiot, then jumping around. If this isn't silly, what is?
On the other side, Leng Yue watched Ruyu's sweet smile and satisfied expression after hanging up the phone. She knew that Ruyu's heart was completely lted at that mont. Her gaze seed to tell everyone that she had found her life's goal again and had regained the motivation to keep living. Moreover, she hadn't forgotten him. He hadn't given up on her either.
In fact, just after Leng Yue took Xiaofan to eat, Xiaofan's first task was to et Ruyu.
Li San knew Xiaofan, and Xiaofan naturally knew what his brother's heart desired.
Though both would boast about any topic over drinks, when quiet monts ca, they shared heart-to-heart conversations.
Xiaofan once asked Li San if he could truly let go of Ruyu, and Li San answered: Once everything settles, I'll go to Japan to find her, provided she hasn't married.
Now that they were at Bai Xue's house, finding Ruyu wasn't difficult at all, and Xiaofan used Ruyu's phone to call Li San simply to tell them that they should handle their own affairs, without needing to inform anyone else.
"Do you think she and Li San will end up together?" Outside, Leng Yue casually asked Xiaofan.
"They've been together for ages; their longing for each other has never stopped. This connection, no matter how far apart, cannot be severed, even if one side dies." Xiaofan said casually.
"Ah, true..."
"You're not going to tell Bai Xue about their situation, are you?" Xiaofan laughed lightly.
"Hmm? Bai Xue actually hopes Ruyu can... Why? Do you not trust Bai Xue?" Taking this chance, Leng Yue slowly inquired.
