By the time the four returned to Dragon Realm Manor, it was already late at night. As soon as they entered the hall, Qi Yue spotted Hai Ruyue, who was reading on the couch, and Ming Ming, sweetly curled up asleep on another couch.
Hai Ruyue looked up at the four, her gaze first landing on Qi Yue with a bit of mockery in her eyes. "You're back quite early!" she sneered.
With a slightly gleeful look, YanXiaoyi gave Qi Yue a glance and said, "I'm going to my room to practice." With that, he quickly went upstairs. Xu Dong acted no differently, greeting them and then promptly disappearing.
Qi Yue grumbled, "These guys, no sense of camaraderie. Ru Yue, don't misunderstand. We were just taking the master out for some real-life experience."
Hai Ruyue feigned surprise and responded, "Did I say you were doing anything else? Besides, you don't owe me an explanation, you should be explaining to Ming Ming."
