Tip of the Iceberg

In the dessert shop, Chen Yichen ordered a piece of cake for Yun Xi.

After not seeing her for three months, he noticed that she had grown taller and looked better. Her eyes now had learned to conceal her emotions, and she seemed more calm and comfortable in her own skin.

Compared with the young, immature girl he had first met, Yun Xi's eyes clearly had thoughts and emotions he couldn't understand.

He did not know if they were thoughts that a girl should have at this age or if her change in character was due to the many hardships she had encountered.

Or perhaps, her every move had now been deeply influenced by Young Commander Mu. There was a depth to her that made it difficult to see what she was thinking..

"How have you been these past few months? I heard that you moved out of the dormitory. Where are you living? Is it safe?"

"I'm staying near the school. It's safe and convenient to go to and from school."
