Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang, left alone clutching the small porcelain bottle, looked at the now-closed elevator doors with eyes full of gratitude. They knew what the elixir Situ Xin had given them meant; it was the security for their futures. In the path they treaded, they lived dangerously, potentially luxuriating in the comfort of their beds one second and struggling on the brink of death in the next.
Carrying the items collected by Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang, Situ Xin headed home, satisfied. She wore a smile on her face all the way, a smile that was not merely polite or distant, but one that came from within. This made the driver, who was familiar with Situ Xin, wonder what good fortune had befallen the household's princess, making her so joyous.
Situ Xin was happy, simply because she thought of having more fruits to eat in the future. She didn't have to be a little rabbit anymore, always eating vegetables and not getting to taste any meat.
