Zhou Qing's expression was sincere, his gaze steady.
A trace of disappointment flashed through Xuanyuan Yichen's eyes. He was just about to speak when he saw Zhou Qing already standing up. "I suddenly remembered I still have some important matters to attend to, so I won't disturb you any longer."
"You're leaving already?" Xuanyuan Yichen's tone carried a hint of reluctance. "Isn't this a bit too soon?"
Zhou Qing shook his head slightly. "I want to first look for my senior brother in secret. Staying here, I really can't calm my mind."
Xuanyuan Yichen let out a soft sigh. "All right. Mu Qian even specially came today to play with you for a while…"
"Another day." Zhou Qing's gaze darkened slightly. "Besides, we're long past the age where we can just mess around without a care."
