Yun Zhi Yue had just finished washing up and was about to sleep when she suddenly heard that her progress had increased, leaving her puzzled.
In the past, when she was by Nan Jing's side, no matter what caused the increase, she could always find a way to benefit from it. Now that he was gone, could she still gain progress?
"Shi Ge, how do I respond?"
"What do you mean how to respond? Don't worry about it; it just increased. By the way, let me tell you something."
"Go ahead, why are you being so secretive? This isn't like you."
*Cough* "Well, last time you mentioned that you weren't doing anything in the Dimension. I want to make a trip back to the Underworld. You know I'm Ming Wang Hun Yan; I can't be away from him for too long. Besides, there are many connections in the Underworld."
Yun Zhi Yue sighed in relief. "I thought it was something serious. So you're missing the Underworld King? Then just go back! By the way, has the Underworld King come out of seclusion?"
"I don't know; I'll have to go back and see."
"Well, while you're at it, could you say a few words to the Underworld King for me? After all, we have a good relationship. I did sacrifice my innocence to help you save someone for Meng Po's position. Shi Ge, you have to look out for me in the future."
"Alright, alright, I get it. Don't worry; from now on, you'll be one of the Underworld King's people. No one will dare to touch you. I'm off now; take care."
After Reincarnation Stone went silent, Yun Zhi Yue felt a bit confused. Why did this broken stone give her a sense of urgency? Was she overthinking it?
Things here were almost settled; it was time to go meet Yue Tong at the National Assembly. She had already arranged for Gang Zi, her bodyguard who often accompanied her to nightclubs, to go ahead.
Gang Zi had been a special forces soldier and worked as a mercenary after retiring. He had been saved by his father and stayed with Yun since then. His loyalty was unquestionable and he was well-suited for dealing with troublesome matters.
In the past, when she went out late at night, she only brought Gang Zi along for a reason.
Lying on her bed deep in thought, just as she was about to close her eyes, her phone rang—it was a video call from Nan Jing.
Yun Zhi Yue chuckled softly; no wonder her progress had increased—was he missing her?
Indeed, after being taught by those perverted uncles and aunts in the Underworld, she had evolved from a naive girl into a little enchantress; capturing one man was just the beginning.
With a slightly aloof expression, she answered the video call. The time difference between the two countries meant it was just dusk back home.
Leaning against the large floor-to-ceiling window, behind her was the warm glow of the setting sun.
When she met those clear, noble phoenix eyes, for a brief moment, Yun Zhi Yue felt that as long as Nan Jing stood there, he was the center of her world.
The allure of his presence overshadowed everything else, and words slipped out before she could think: "Nan Jing, wait for me to come back and marry you. Have you prepared for the wedding?"
His cold gaze gradually softened as Nan Jing's fingertips brushed lightly across the screen, tracing her brows and eyes.
"Yun Zhi Yue, do you love me? I want to hear the truth."
The word "love" lingered on her lips but was swallowed back down as she caught a glimpse of the sadness in Nan Jing's eyes.
Realizing something was off with him, Yun Zhi Yue finally asked, "What's wrong?"
"Yun Zhi Yue, answer my question."
She should have instinctively replied with a lie, but at that moment, she found herself unwilling to do so.
Lying on her bed, she gazed at the man on the other side of the phone and pondered for a long time before finally asking, "Nan Jing, what do you think love is?"
