209, Mo Xianxian's Dream

The scorching sun seared the heart, while a gentle breeze caressed the face.

In the small courtyard, the standoff continued, as sharp as blades and shadows of swords.

Xu Yuan knew they couldn't keep this deadlock any longer.

Though Mo Xianxian did not show signs of madness now, the longer it dragged on, the greater the likelihood of her becoming ill.

Furthermore, Tian Liuli might not have the patience to keep this up with Mo Xianxian.

He had to find a way to break the impasse.

Without a change in expression, Xu Yuan used his chopsticks to take the piece of fish that both were fiercely contesting for.

If he allowed them to continue, the fish might be destroyed by the spiritual power contained in their chopsticks.

Seeing him intervene, Tian Liuli suddenly had an idea, and promptly retracted her chopsticks, silently watching him.

She did not speak, but the meaning in her eyes was self-evident.
