Lu Shinian's eyelashes fluttered slightly.
The wolf tail had already retracted, and the wolf ears were likely concealed back within his body.
From the surface, he indeed seemed to have awakened.
But in reality, his rationality had never disappeared.
Lu Shinian lowered his gaze, his pupils reflecting the image of Su Ruan's small hand, and he responded softly, "Hmm."
Su Ruan let out a breath of relief, "It's good that you're awake."
She patted his shoulder, "This time during your Ancestral Stage, you didn't seem as agitated as before. Is this a sign of improvement?"
Not as agitated as before? Lu Shinian narrowed his eyes.
In his view, this was already the limit of what he could achieve.
Although he had seen his childish behavior during the Ancestral Stage before, actually doing those things while maintaining rationality felt somewhat... shameful?
The word inexplicably emerged in Lu Shinian's mind, and his ear roots, hidden under his hair, blushed slightly.
