That night, Shen Qingcong stayed in the room next to the Hall Master.
According to the Hall Master, dwelling next to him would allow him to keep a watchful eye on her condition and protect her flexibly.
Although no one in Sikou's hall dared to challenge his authority, he still wished to take these precautions.
He felt that if he could be closer to her, his heart could be more at ease.
In his life, he had lost way too much.
Yet, the joy and happiness he had gained were far too few.
Shen Qingcong's appearance was like a ray of sunshine in his gloomy world, warming his body and reigniting a new lease of energy within him, giving him hope and anticipation for the future.
One needs to have something to look forward to in life to feel motivated.
Otherwise, like how he used to live, unaffected, desireless, and unambitious; if he passed away like that, he wouldn't feel reluctant.
Because in this world, he no longer had any loved ones to worry about or miss.
