But if you really ask what's different this time..."
Like a flash of lightning, Bai Xian immediately thought of Liu Yi.
Bai Xian said, "I think, perhaps I've been dragged into this by someone else."
Shu Yu brought a cloth bag. He tossed the bag to Bai Xian and then gave a look that signaled he was ready to hear more.
Bai Xian instinctively caught the bag, surprised by its weight. "What's this?"
"Food!"
"Oh, I absolutely adore you, Liang Shuyu!" Hearing it was food, Bai Xian quickly opened the bag, discovering roast chicken and braised pork. Though someone injured shouldn't eat greasy food, Bai Xian had been surviving on bland soups, pretending to have no appetite due to his concern for the missing Eighth Princess, but in reality, he was starving and desperately needed nourishment.
Bai Xian tore off a drumstick and devoured it ravenously, biting into the meat quickly. While chewing, he began recounting the incident when Liu Yi and Bazak visited him that day.
