Ling Qingyu continued teasing Astrid for a while before deciding she would simply ambush Kate at her office. With Athena's assistance, finding the exact location wasn't difficult at all—after all, Athena had practically dug through Kate's entire family history earlier. Tracking down her office was trivial.
That evening, Astrid said goodbye and reaffirmed her decision to travel the world with Ling Qingyu.
Their protagonist was delighted. Her mood soared straight to cloud nine.
However, Ling Qingyu would never have foreseen that while she managed to stop Astrid from falling further into the abyss because of William, her own actions would eventually lead Astrid to meet her true soulmate.
The encounter would happen in the eastern part of the world, near Ling Qingyu's Phoenix Continent, not far from Province N. What began as an ordinary sightseeing trip—visiting temples and ancient heritage sites—would lead Astrid to meet the man who would become her future spouse.
