Unexpectedly, as Lin Xin offered the bone shard, Xiao Lingling did not take it, instead staring at herself somewhat astonished.
"Lin... Brother Lin, I'm not... I'm not..."
"Take it quickly, isn't this what you're here for? What are you hesitating for! Stop wasting my time!" Lin Xin was becoming rather impatient.
The footsteps from behind were drawing nearer, and Lin Xin decisively stuffed the bone shard into Xiao Lingling's arms before turning and leaving.
Holding the bone shard, Xiao Lingling, for some reason, felt her eyes moisten.
"Brother Lin... is this how you see me?"
By this time, Lin Xin could no longer hear her, his figure swiftly disappearing around the corner of the passage.
Xiao Lingling stood alone in the corridor, and before long, a man and a woman arrived from behind— it was the Peng Yan couple they had encountered earlier on the stone bridge of the underground river.
