The people at Peace Manor had just returned from their most recent mission. They were incredibly excited when they saw Gu Xiqiao return.
"That's enough guys," said Gu Xiqiao upon seeing how close Wu Hongwen and the rest of his team were on the brink of breaking down into tears. "I'm not dead, alright?"
"What are you talking about!" Yao Jiamu was frowning. What an inauspicious word to say!
"Where's Xiao Yun?" Gu Xiqiao asked while rubbing her nose. Her eyes scanned across the crowd in search of her friend. It was a convenient opportunity to change the topic anyway.
Too bad, Xiao Yun was nowhere to be found.
Wu Hongwen pursed his lips. "Her? She left with Tang Qingqiu right after our mission ended. But…" He was a little worried when thinking about this. "She did not seem particularly happy when she left. I wonder what happened to her."
