The surroundings quieted down.

Fang Yu didn't even look around, but went over to Xu Zhaopei, took her hand, and said, "I'll take you back."

It had only been ten minutes since they entered the lobby.

Yet such an unimaginable thing had happened.

It reminded Xu Zhaopei of the first time she saw Fang Yu killing someone under the cover of night.

At that time, he did not heed any persuasion and resolutely killed.

He seemed accustomed to killing.

Killing as if it were nothing.

Now, she saw Fang Yu kill again. Only this time, the method was beyond her imagination and left her unable to recover for a long time.

Once in the car, she remained silent.

After a long while, Xu Zhaopei finally spoke, "Why has it come to this?"

"What do you mean why?"

"Were you always that kind of person from the beginning?" Xu Zhaopei didn't want to use the word 'cultivator,' instead, she described him as 'that kind of person.'

She couldn't imagine that the man she wanted to marry harbored so many secrets!

Unthinkable and even harder to accept!

The car sped through bustling streets.

Vibrant nightlife, streams of traffic.

None of which could capture Xu Zhaopei's attention.

"Are you scared?" asked Fang Yu.

"I'm not scared... I just want to understand!" Xu Zhaopei said earnestly.

The car fell silent.

Silence lingered.

Fang Yu finally spoke, "Peipei... the world is much more complex than you imagine. I used to be called a frog in a well, so I tried hard to leap out of it. One day, I did jump out, but I found, I was still in a well... No matter how I jumped, I felt outside was still a well..."

Xu Zhaopei looked puzzled, not quite understanding what he meant.

Fang Yu continued:

"Later, I realized that no matter how I jumped, I couldn't escape from these wells... When I wanted to go back, I couldn't find the original path."

The car stopped.

It was near the airport.

Fang Yu looking at the outside airport continued:

"Sometimes, I really envy you. You can live an ordinary life, be a dedicated doctor... Go, this place isn't for you. Where there is turmoil, wherever I am, peace will never abide! A slight carelessness may lead to utter destruction!"

Xu Zhaopei was stunned.

How could she not know this was the airport.

Is this driving me away?

Is this a rejection?

Tears welled in her eyes, her emotions swirling uncontrollably.

Tears flowed freely.

"Fang Yu... you jerk!"

With that, she got out of the car, not bothering to say anything else, and ran towards the airport.

Watching her retreating figure, Fang Yu sighed and murmured, "To gain something, you must let go... Being by my side only brings danger."

After Fang Yu drove away.

At the entrance of the airport terminal, Xu Zhaopei came back out.

She stomped her foot petulantly and whimpered, "Jerk! Almost tricked me... Saying it's daytime, you just want to ditch me? No way!"

"Is it because you think you're not worthy of me? What does it matter! I like frogs too! If you are a male frog, then I will be your female frog. If you jump in a well, I will jump with you... If you can jump out, so can I!"

As she spoke, Xu Zhaopei's gaze gradually hardened.

Watching the sun sink behind the West Mountain, Xu Zhaopei did not go in search of Fang Yu, instead, she faded into the vast crowd of the City of Eternal Night.

...

Achoo!

Just as Fang Yu arrived at the Ye Family villa entrance, he sneezed.

"Which beauty is thinking about me again, quite strange!" Fang Yu scratched his head and got off the car.

"Master is well!"

The guards on either side bowed in salute, chuckling simultaneously.

Fang Yu looked around suspiciously and said sternly, "What's so funny?"

The two guards immediately straightened up, standing erect.

"Speak," Fang Yu demanded.

"Master..."

The guard on the left coughed and whispered, "Have you run into some romantic luck?"

"Romantic luck? Speak your mind frankly! Don't beat around the bush," Fang Yu frowned.

"There's a woman looking for you. She said she knows you. I didn't let her in, but she left a note for you!"

Saying this, the Hidden Dragon guard handed over the note to Fang Yu.

Fang Yu opened the note, which had elegant handwriting:

"Yanjing Four Seasons Hotel, Room 501."

What...

What does this mean?

"Son-in-law, this is your room key." The Hidden Dragon guard respectfully handed over the room key.

Fang Yu took it with suspicion.

He glanced around and said, "No one is allowed to speak of this!"

"Understood, understood..."

"Understood my ass, take this seriously!" Fang Yu glared.

"Yes!" The two guards straightened up.

He quickly returned to the car, and with a buzz, the car sped away.

Arriving in the bustling area.

Passing through streets, he finally reached the Four Seasons Hotel.

Fang Yu got out of the car and went straight upstairs.

"Fifth floor, Room 501. Hehe..." Fang Yu held the room key in his hand.

Soon.

He arrived in front of Room 501.

He took the room key and placed it on the reader.

Click—

The door opened.

Fang Yu slipped into the room.

Just as he entered, he heard a shout from the bathroom.

"Who?"

"Eh, taking a bath?"

Whoosh!

A snow-white figure flashed out of the bathroom.

Thump, thump!

With agile posture, she danced back and forth, kicking at Fang Yu repeatedly...

Thump, thump!

Fang Yu raised his hand to block, saying, "Is that necessary!? "

With a gesture, he slightly used some Gang Qi to repel the figure!

Bang!

"Ah..."

The silhouette cried out in shock, retreating repeatedly, spinning 360 degrees, and fell onto the bed.

"Bai Ruoling?"

Her vision had been blocked by wet hair and a white bath towel.

Pushed back by the Gang Qi, as she turned around, the bath towel fell off!

Hair scattered!

Bai Ruoling's complexion changed slightly, her hands raised to cover her chest, angrily said, "Is it you who came?"

Fang Yu spread his hands and said, "My dear lady, it was you who arranged this meeting, and now you're not owning up to it?"

No kidding, Bai Ruoling's stunning figure was indeed breathtakingly perfect.

Slender yet proportionate, petite yet charming.

Bai Ruoling, noticing his gaze sweeping over her body, quickly grabbed the towel, turned around, and covered the crucial parts.

"Indeed, I arranged it." Bai Ruoling calmly spoke.

"Speak then, what's the matter?" Fang Yu leaned against the desk, shaking his leg.

Bai Ruoling stood up.

The two looked eye to eye.

"That day when you spoke to me about love, I thought about it a lot... and felt that what you said made sense. My grandfather is getting old, and he said his biggest wish is to see me married. So, I tried interacting with other men... but I discovered that none of them could touch my heart."

Fang Yu rolled his eyes:

"Then there's no use finding me... I can't help you. Matters of the heart must take their natural course!"

Bai Ruoling ignored Fang Yu and continued:

"After careful thought over this period... I think I might have fallen for you! Grandpa says, love will crystallize, and only men who have shared a bed won't have a wandering, restless heart."

As she spoke, Bai Ruoling took off her bath towel!
