And Ye Wudao wasn't looking at her because he recognized Fang Yi or because he took pride in being her lifesaver; rather, he saw an inescapable sense of sorrow on Fang Yi's face, as if she were troubled by something.
Truth be told, Ye Wudao hadn't quite decided whether to greet Fang Yi or not; after all, they didn't have much interaction besides the time he had saved her life. Ye Wudao knew virtually nothing about Fang Yi.
Fang Yi, unaware that the man sitting next to her was her savior Ye Wudao, didn't return to Europe voluntarily but due to family pressure.
It was more accurate to say she didn't want her family to suffer pressure because of her. To be precise, the pressure came from the prominent Chu Family of Jiangnan, as she was engaged to their eldest son, Chu Shaoyun.
Logically, being a well-known and wealthy family of Jiangnan, marrying into the Chu Family would be Fang Yi's entrance into high society, and she should have been happy about it.
