Chu Qianli took out something from the Universe Chain.
A lock.
Chu Wang was puzzled: "What do you want to lock?"
He couldn't react because it was just an ordinary lock. Was it worth her taking it out with such importance?
Feng Yexuan was momentarily stunned, then his brow immediately furrowed.
"Heaven and Earth Lock?"
Unbelievable! The Heaven and Earth Lock they've been seeking for so long was unexpectedly in Chu Qianli's hands!
His heart suddenly sank, and he said in a deep voice: "Put it away!"
"Are you afraid that after Hua Rong knows, she'll force you to snatch the Heaven and Earth Lock from me?"
His "put it away" instantly melted the tension Chu Qianli had been holding, like sunlight shining onto a glacier.
At least while Hua Rong doesn't know, he's willing to hypocritically cater to her feelings.
That's rare enough.
It's clear that Feng Yexuan's feelings toward Hua Rong, aside from filial affection for his mother, included a sense of guilt.
