The envy Li Dayu felt, and the revelation he experienced in that moment, were his alone. He had been standing at the door for a long time. It wasn't until Yang Rong came out and spoke to him that he snapped back to reality.
"What's wrong, Village Chief? You've been out for a while. Aren't you going home for dinner?" Yang Rong was still wearing that enchanting outfit. Her gaze followed the direction of Li Dayu's stare, but she saw nothing. "What are you looking at?"
"A phoenix!" Li Dayu laughed. "What, you want to see it too?"
Yang Rong gave Li Dayu's shoulder a playful pat and teased, "What are you talking about, Village Chief? I thought I heard you talking to someone just now. It was Wang Jian, wasn't it?"
Li Dayu chuckled. "You knew, but you asked anyway."
