"..."
Shang Ruyi heard this, frowned slightly, and turned to look at Shen Wuzheng.
Shen Wuzheng shook his head and said, "No need."
"..."
"We have already made arrangements; at this moment we shouldn't disrupt our plans."
"..."
"The opponent might be someone with foreknowledge — we don't know as much as they do, so we must think more, and deeper, than this person; otherwise, it won't be easy to catch them."
Hearing the words "and deeper," Shang Ruyi took a deep breath.
She nodded gently, "I understand."
Then she turned to Wo Xue and said, "You should go back and assist Su Yizheng. Do not tell anyone about what just happened."
Wo Xue immediately nodded, "I understand, my lady."
After speaking, Wo Xue turned and walked away. Shang Ruyi stood there, watching her slender figure blend into the crowd before turning to look at the distant Yanzuo Square, shrouded in smoke and appearing unfathomable, deepening her gaze even further.
In the blink of an eye, half a day had passed.
