"You're back?"

"Yes, Grandpa Fan."

"When are you going to Yanhuang Soul?"

"I'm not going over there..."

"Not going? Why?"

"Without inner strength, I'm not even as good as a newbie warrior there. Now, I just want to live a normal life."

"A normal person, that's something you're destined not to be."

"Willing but unable."

"Alright, it's your choice. So, what are you going to do in the Capital City?"

"Study, finish university, and then see what comes next."

"Then, what about Junjie's sister? Red Butterfly is no more, you can openly be with her now."

"Zuimo?"

Every time he thought of her, Xiaofan's heart was never at ease.

"With Red Butterfly gone, just let her be. In the future, nothing can bind her to a life without freedom."

"You brat... Alright, the transfer notice from Capital University will be delivered to you tonight..."

"Capital University? I'm studying at Yuanming."

"Yuanming has expelled you."

"Cough, cough..."

Being expelled from university was obviously a setup by Fan Lingtian, because Xiaofan was, after all, the champion of the free combat competition, and with the help of the Ren Family, everything was arranged properly even though he hadn't attended many classes for a whole year. It was impossible for Xiaofan to be expelled.

Of course, Xiaofan didn't point this out directly to Fan Lingtian. His intention of letting him go to this school was goodwill. Anyway, finishing university is the same regardless of where he studies.

"Alright then, let's leave it at that."

"Oh, Xiaofan, when you extinguished Red Butterfly, you mentioned that some Federation Bureau agents aren't afraid of bullets. We've investigated and indeed found something on their bodies..."

"This is something Yanhuang Soul can handle. Also, Li San and the others have always been lazy by nature. If they have any violations at Yanhuang Soul, please, Grandpa Fan, bear with them a bit."

"Naturally, after all, they are rare talents, elites. But when you're not around, it always feels..."

"Alright, I'm going to eat now, talk later."

Xiaofan didn't want to hear more about Yanhuang Soul, feeling that without his inner strength, these matters had nothing to do with him anymore.

However, Grandpa Fan's information was really up-to-date; his phone rang just as he got off the plane. He must want him to return.

Zuimo can now live in peace without worrying about Red Butterfly bothering her. And what Xiaofan needs to do now is return to normality. The first step is to seek forgiveness from the goddess.

Oh dear, how should he explain it to her? What identity should he use to face her? If Siyan asks whether he still loves Zuimo, how should he answer?

Oh heavens, and then there's Ren Ling and Chen Mei'Er, what face does he have left to ask for their forgiveness?

With his high school-purchased backpack, Xiaofan frowned and got into a taxi.

On the other side, hearing Xiaofan hang up, Fan Lingtian helplessly hung up the landline, glanced at Shen Junjie in front of him.

"How is it?"

Shaking his head, Fan Lingtian said lightly, "Even Third Ye has no solution. It seems that Xiaofan recovering his inner strength is really too difficult."

"That brat doesn't want my sister?" Shen Junjie was most concerned about his sister's emotional issues.

"Actually, it's up to Zuimo. You see, if it were the Zoumi who lost her memory back then, she would definitely follow Xiaofan without hesitation. But now? She's regained her memory and forgotten Xiaofan. So what to do? Now Xiaofan has paved all paths for her future. How she walks and chooses is up to her."

That's right, what Fan Lingtian said is exactly Xiaofan's intention. After all, a normal person has the right to choose how they want to live. Just because Xiaofan cleared all the worries for her doesn't mean she has to spend her life with him. It's her path, she chooses it.

"Then should I go tell her?"

"Yes, go ahead, but don't mention Xiaofan losing his inner strength..."

"Why not?" Shen Junjie immediately asked.

"You fool, you're usually so smart, how can you be so clueless about this? I'm telling you, if Zuimo knew that Xiaofan exhausted his inner strength for her, her choices would definitely be biased, and she'd unconsciously carry concerns when choosing. Xiaofan's intention is for her to choose peacefully and give her enough time."

"Oh, oh, I get it. Elder Fan, you're really amazing, to be so clear about these things too."

"Shoo, shoo, after all, I've been through it."

Through it? Hearing this, Fan Lingtian must have had a passionate love during his younger days.

Shen Junjie wanted to ask but didn't dare to and slightly bowed before heading out the door and down the stairs.

With Red Butterfly gone, if Zuimo heard the news, she'd definitely feel relieved, surely happy.

"Hmm? Ye Xiaofan did it?"

In the cafeteria, a woman dressed in sportswear sat down gracefully. Her appearance always attracted a lot of attention from the opposite sex, eyes tracking her every move, but that beauty was surrounded by an icy aura that kept people at a distance, as if approaching her would freeze them.

The loose sportswear seemed intent on hiding her impressive figure, yet her stunning beauty could kill any competition.

Red Butterfly is extinct.

This was what Shen Junjie said to his sister when he sat down. He wanted to see her surprised expression, but after a slight initial surprise, she immediately guessed who the instigator was.

"How do you know it was Xiaofan? And, is that all your reaction is?" Shen Junjie asked, somewhat surprised.

"Hmm, I should be very delighted. But for some reason, I can't smile."

Saying this, Shen Zuimo continued to eat, elegantly and properly. She took big bites of what she liked and then chewed slowly. She carried herself like a lady of a noble family, every gesture radiating a perfect goddess aura. This wasn't an act; it was genuinely how she was.

Can't smile? Hearing this, Shen Junjie was taken aback. Is it only he who can make his sister laugh? Or is there some other reason? Could it be that his sister no longer cares about the Red Butterfly?

No, Shen Junjie suddenly figured it out. The reason Zuimo couldn't smile was because the person in front of her wasn't Ye Xiaofan. If it were him, what kind of scene would that be?
