Weisheng and Xiaoling returned to the residence together. After learning about Lady Ren's death, Xiaoling had been quiet and lost in thought. At first, Weisheng didn't pay attention since no one had been concerned about the death of someone free of Karma. But when he noticed Xiaoling's quietness during dinner, he couldn't help but call her out.
"Master," Weisheng said amidst their meal, "Are you feeling okay?"
Xiaoling raised her eyes slightly to look at him, "Of course." Her confident voice sounded genuine.
Weisheng was still skeptical. Her quietness was concerning, so he looked at her from the corner of his eyes.
"What?" Xiaoling asked in a complaining tone.
"What's on your mind, then?" Weisheng asked skeptically.
