The performance traces were too obvious, but Zhao Yi didn't expose it; instead, he smiled warmly:

"It's fine, no one's seriously hurt, that's good. You've worked hard too. Let's head back down the mountain."

Sun Yan completed her mission and duty, except she didn't actively get killed by the Yu Family.

This might be an extremely ironic point, that Zhao Yi, who is skilled at manipulating people's hearts, judges people by what they do instead of what they think. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

On the other hand, the emotionless Li Zhiyuan values and is more critical of his partners' inner selves, and on this basis, even created the Red Line.

When they got back down the mountain, they met up with Xu Ming again. Without delay, they headed straight to the city's guesthouse.

Just as they settled in, Wu Xin came riding his three-wheeled motorcycle.

He had just finished his tasks and made time specifically to take the support team out for some fun.

Zhao Yi: "You guys go ahead. We'll take care of the injured. I certainly wouldn't harm Mr. Li here; after all, my whole clan is still waiting for the promotions."

These words were quite reasonable, putting even Run Sheng at ease.

Previously, Brother Xiao Yuan definitely couldn't be left alone with Zhao Yi. But now, there's no such worry, because Young Master Zhao might be more concerned than anyone about Brother Xiao Yuan getting into an accident.

So, Run Sheng, Lin Shuyou, and Yin Meng went along with Wu Xin for some fun.

Wu Xin initially thought Run Sheng's mention of "seeing pandas" was just a joke. But seeing that Yin Meng, a woman, had also come along, he realized that such thrilling activities were no longer an option.

He could only play the role of a proper tour guide, taking them around the panda park and a few attractions in Rong City.

While watching the pandas, a panda sat adorably across from them, munching on bamboo with great relish.

Unable to resist, Run Sheng drew out a piece of bamboo, took a bite and chewed it. After swallowing and finding it tasted awful, he tossed the remaining bamboo back.

The panda paused its bamboo eating for a long time, gaping at Run Sheng.

Stripped of the former identities of an official and the White Crane True Monarch, Lin Shuyou was still essentially a male college student. At this age, they are fond of playing around. He even spent money on an experience session, holding a baby panda and taking numerous photos.

Compared to leisure activities, Yin Meng enjoyed the "hometown accent feeling" more.

Whether it was the "Hou" from Nantong or the sarcasm from Jinling, she preferred the dialect from Chuanyu. The way the tone would rise as if breaking into a song when speaking a few words made her feel extremely light and joyful.

After dinner, Wu Xin took them back to the guesthouse in Dujiangyan.

At their parting, Wu Xin courteously said, "There are plenty of fun places in Rong City, I truly hope you can stay a few more days, so I can show you around properly."

Yin Meng: "Sure!"

Wu Xin coughed and asked, "So, tomorrow, continue?"

Yin Meng: "Sure."

Wu Xin pursed his lips and said, "Should I come pick you up tomorrow morning?"

Yin Meng: "Sure."

Wu Xin laughed: "Alright, it's settled then. I'll get a car tomorrow, it'll be more convenient."

The three-wheeled motorcycle was indeed a bit crowded. He drove while Run Sheng sat behind him and Lin Shuyou sat on the luggage rack. Wu Xin was astonished at this young man's remarkable strength, getting off without a hitch.

After Wu Xin left, Lin Shuyou scratched his head and said, "I get the feeling he was just being polite."

Run Sheng: "She knows."

Yin Meng: "Anyway, since Brother Xiao Yuan and Zhuangzhuang aren't awake yet, we might as well stay and keep having fun."

Lin Shuyou: "Agreed."

The next morning, the three went out with Wu Xin again.

Upon their return in the evening, Wu Xin no longer politely inquired about the next day's plans or expressed any sentimental thoughts about Rong City's vibrancy.

He didn't mind spending money and was willing to buy gifts to express gratitude, but being such a pure tour guide was incredibly dull and uninteresting.

Therefore, on the third day, Yin Meng drove her pick-up truck to continue the outing, while Liang Yan and Liang Li, having tended to their injuries, also wanted to join.

Run Sheng originally didn't plan to go; he wanted to stay behind and bask in the sun.

But after Yin Meng glanced at the guesthouse entrance bench and the receptionist girl sitting there, she decisively refused Run Sheng's request.

Run Sheng had no choice but to continue tagging along.

"Creak..."

The door was pushed open, and the room was full of cold air. Zhao Yi shivered as he brought in a bowl of herbal medicine.

Tan Wenbin lay on the bed, a talisman stuck to his forehead, still asleep.

Zhao Yi was sure he was pretending to be asleep, because Zhao Yi knew with Tan Wenbin's current state, managing even a light doze was tough, let alone sleeping for three days and nights straight.

He was faking it, which Zhao Yi understood; after all, waking up for real meant facing him.

"Heh, pretending to sleep to avoid me, but I'm the one worried you might starve yourself to death."

Zhao Yi placed a large bowl of herbal medicine on the bedside table, which Sun Yan had prepared as per his instructions.

He turned to leave, but hesitated.

Zhao Yi's eyes widened, his heart racing, as he saw the two children laughing and playing by Tan Wenbin's pillow.

The kids had solidified a bit more in the past few days, and the cold air in the room more intense, with frost accumulating.

"With this cooling effect, it'd be a waste not to sell refrigerators. Draw the kids and put them on as a logo."

The kids ignored Zhao Yi, continuing their game: "You pat one, I pat one, a baby sits on a plane..."

Zhao Yi made a funny face at the kids and said:

"Nanny nanny boo boo, your daddy will soon not want you anymore~"
