Yu Wenquan's brow furrowed slightly.
Shang Ruyi immediately turned her head, seeming like she wanted to say something, but after considering it, she stopped and only looked at him quietly.
That glance was extraordinarily calm, and it exuded a clarity free of the slightest impurity. Although Yu Wenye's gaze was stern, the moment it met hers, his breath still caught slightly.
Then, Shang Ruyi gently said to him, "It's not what you think."
"...!"
Yu Wenye's breathing deepened.
He seemed to realize something, a flash of insight darting across his eyes, and his tightly pressed lips parted slightly as if to speak, but after pondering for a moment, he refrained.
Yu Wenquan looked at the two of them and then said, "You go back first. I still have some words to share with Ruyi."
Yu Wenye also raised his head to glance at him, said nothing more, simply bowed and turned to leave.
