"Wen Xin, I've never pried into your affairs, but could you satisfy my curiosity? Are you from the Independent State? How else could you know so much, even their exact location?"
Chu Yunxuan's curiosity was something Wen Xin understood. As she hesitated while fastening her pajama buttons, she admitted, "There is indeed a connection, but it's not convenient to discuss now. You'll find out eventually."
"Alright, if you don't wish to discuss it, I won't press further. Knowing eventually is enough for me."
After ending the call with Chu Yunxuan, Wen Xin leaned against the wardrobe in the dressing room, a bitter smile on her face. She knew that revealing her identity would bring danger.
She would prefer a peaceful life without any ties to that place if given the choice.
In bed, Mu Chengxi sensed Wen Xin's unease and wrapped his arms around her gently,
"Are you feeling off today? Is there anything you'd like to talk about?"
