Night fell, and Lin Zhuqing snuggled next to Ye Chen on the bed, her delicate face bearing a faint smile as she said, "In my youth, I wholeheartedly pursued the Penglai Immortal Sect, fantasizing that entering martial arts was my true fate. But now, I think perhaps this ordinary and peaceful life is what suits us best, isn't it?"
"At least, we don't have to sleep in the wilderness anymore, nor face hunger or confront fierce beasts…"
Ye Chen suddenly looked at Lin Zhuqing and asked, "Do you regret it?"
Lin Zhuqing was momentarily stunned, then shook her head slightly, "No regrets."
Ye Chen smiled and said, "Sleep now, it's getting late."
...
The next day, Lin Zhuqing slowly opened her eyes, only to find the room empty, with no sign of Ye Chen.
Her heart suddenly tightened, and she quickly got out of bed, only to see dozens of gold ingots and a letter on the table.
