Qiong Xing was genuinely happy to see him again as Rohen greeted him with a smile.
"I have. As for you... have you lost a little weight?"
"..."
Why did everyone around Qiong Xing always seem to remember every change in his figure?
His silence must have been answer enough, because Rohen burst out laughing.
"We were training nearby, so I thought I'd stop by to check on the area and say hello. We haven't seen much of you lately. The captain has been feeling lonely, too."
...That man?
Qiong Xing did not doubt Rohen's words, but he found that hard to believe and was about to laugh it off when...
"You're Qiong Xing? The one the captain keeps talking about?"
"And who might you be?"
One of the men standing behind Rohen stepped forward.
Qiong Xing did not recognize him.
He looked like a new recruit.
Yet when Qiong Xing asked who he was, the man offered no answer.
Instead, he simply stared at him from head to toe as though evaluating merchandise.
