Making a deal with Ye Feng!

On March 30th, 2023, exactly two weeks had dragged by since the unfortunate day Lin Ruoxi and Ye Feng had the displeasure of making direct contact with Zhang Wei.

Coincidentally—or perhaps predictably—both of them now found themselves confined in separate quarters, experiencing the luxury of having an abundance of time, resorting to counting their own hairs to stave off boredom.

Ye Feng resembled a ghostly shadow of his former self. His body appeared skinnier than a starving scarecrow, and his eyes were puffier than a marshmallow left out in the rain.

Sharing this bleak dungeon were Ma Cheng and Tang Shen. They, too, had undergone a dramatic transformation. For lack of a better word, they looked as dry as desert cacti, their spirits crushed by the weight of their predicament.
