Ling Menglu gently took Long Dangdang's hand without speaking, but communicated through a Spirit Crystal.
"Dangdang, are you okay? Ever since we came here, I've sensed that you've been feeling down," she transmitted.
Long Dangdang replied through sound transmission as well, "Don't worry about me, I'm fine. In the Wraith Kingdom, it's natural for emotions to be affected."
Ling Menglu leaned her head against his shoulder. "Then can you tell me why, ever since you returned from the Wraith Kingdom, you've been distancing yourself from me?"
Long Dangdang was stunned for a moment and instinctively responded, "No! Why would I distance myself from you?"
Ling Menglu sighed. "You have to understand, girls are very sensitive. The old you, when you saw me, your gaze would sometimes fixate, and although you covered it well, occasionally your eyes would still drift over to more embarrassing parts of me. I just pretended not to notice, we're both young, and it's all normal."
