“I have returned,” Xu Yi gently patted Yu Xiaoyu’s back and nodded at Hongjing and the others.
Hongjing’s expression softened upon seeing Xu Yi, as if a weight had been lifted from his heart.
For some reason, when he saw Xu Yi, it was as if all his uncertainties suddenly became less daunting.
Bei Xinghan felt a sense of unease and subtly tilted her head, secretly relieved.
“Where are you all planning to go?”
Xu Yi asked softly, once Yu Xiaoyu’s emotions had settled a bit.
“Well…” Yu Xiaoyu and Hongjing spoke simultaneously.
After a few words, Hongjing voluntarily stopped speaking, allowing Yu Xiaoyu to finish.
“We plan to find Xi Ren and ask for his help in resolving the misunderstandings between us,” they both said.
“Xi Ren owes you a favor?” Xu Yi asked.
“He…” Yu Xiaoyu’s eyes turned red, struggling to find the right words.
Xi Ren and she were both disciples of the academy, so naturally, Xi Ren wouldn’t dare to make any overly aggressive moves.
