Weisheng returned to the residence after ensuring the Arbiter had calmed down. He headed straight toward Xiaoling's room as Mengzhen had told him earlier that she had returned along with Hai. They took three days on their special rescue cat mission. Although Weisheng supported the initiative, he felt uneasy about Xiaoling's safety. 

He knocked at her door and stood outside quietly, waiting for her to call him inside. Day by day, he was losing his patience. She always took a long time. 

"Come in!" 

He finally heard her voice, so he entered the room. She was seated at her study, writing a letter to someone again - most likely the Arbiter. Weisheng sighed deeply as he walked over to the study and sat down before her. 

"I thought you didn't have work today," She murmured while glued to the paper, "Where were you?" 

Weisheng took his suffocating mask off and set it aside on the table, "Lord Arbiter called me."
