Xu Hu Zhe's subtle concern did not go unnoticed by Xu Feng. As the teen's concerned eyes met his, Xu Feng's smile grew and brightened, taking on a bewitching quality.
It was as if his energy had been revitalized by this simple display of care and understanding. "Thanks," he said softly, his voice carrying a warm undertone of gratitude.
With that, he let the train of thought go, focusing on the present moment.
Hu Zhe was indeed a very good and unusually shy and slightly awkward boy. Xu Feng understood that he had a responsibility to nurture and support those closest to him in this world, and there was also the matter of bringing Xu Zeng back.
However, he didn't need to feel rushed. Being stressed wouldn't solve any of his problems. It wouldn't make time move faster and opportunities present themselves.
It was all about luck and the right timing.
