He saw how the man's eye color, as well as his complexion, visibly darkened.
Caught off guard, the speed of the change startled Yao Qing for a moment.
What had she said that upset him so suddenly?
"So, you think the changes in me right now are terrible and disappointing?"
His voice, moistened by water, remained deep, but it lacked the previous raspiness, so while it was heavy, it wasn't frightening.
Yao Qing curled her lips, "I didn't say that. I just feel... you've changed quite a bit, and it makes me feel a bit estranged, that's all."
Compared to before, whether it was his principles, emotional intelligence, or anything else, he had undergone significant changes.
If before Yao Qing felt a distance from Yu Yanshen, now she truly recognized the changes this man had undergone throughout these four years.
It turns out that a boy shaking off his immaturity to become what he is now is such a stark transformation.
