A tremor seemed to stir within Zhuge Lan's heart.
Perhaps, between him and Dongfang Jingjing, it was more than just a confidante relationship?
Perhaps, they were two halves of similar souls.
He…
Zhuge Lan stopped himself from thinking too much. He still had many things to do and couldn't delay Dongfang Jingjing.
Wang Qiran and Xiao Yan carried Zhuge Lan. When he was looking for Zhuge Lan earlier, he had glanced at the sky a few extra times. Initially, he had only sensed a formation appearing around the villa, knowing it was Zhuge Lan's doing.
But not long after, the immense commotion, the vast formation that enveloped Shashi, startled him.
Was this truly something humans could achieve?
He had noticed earlier that moonlight, starlight, everything was being drawn into that formation. Was this what the mythical stories called absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, gathering the vitality of the sun and moon?
Although there was no sun, the starlight was almost equivalent.
If all of this was Zhuge Lan's doing, he would have to re-examine his master.
Could it be that Zhuge Lan was not human! He was an immortal descended to the mortal realm?!
Dongfang Jingjing over there also didn't seem human, likely an immortal who had descended with him. Otherwise, how could such an ignorant human exist in this world?
He became increasingly certain of his judgment.
…
Ning Fengzhi and Yuan Feifei, after meeting, did not linger in the noisy bar.
Yuan Feifei had specifically asked her senior sister for leave.
The two of them were in a private room upstairs in the bar, just the two of them, and it was not as boisterous as outside.
"You… move closer!"
Yuan Feifei called out impatiently to Ning Fengzhi, who was sitting on the other end of the sofa.
"Coming."
Ning Fengzhi immediately moved over. He had a shy expression on his face. On the way there, his mind had prepared a plethora of things to say, but upon seeing her, he felt as if everything he had prepared was deleted.
"Drink?"
Yuan Feifei stared at Ning Fengzhi with annoyance.
She had also been a bit shy earlier, but after they had been silent in the bar for quite a while, her senior sister had arranged for them to be here.
Yet, upon arriving here with no one else around, they were still silent. She couldn't hold back any longer. Why did this guy seem even more shy than her? Was he afraid she would do something to him?
Although Ning Fengzhi was somewhat handsome, she was a woman of principles!
How could she so easily do something to him?
"Okay."
Ning Fengzhi nodded quickly. "But not anything too strong."
"You're a grown man, how can you not handle strong alcohol?" Yuan Feifei looked at Ning Fengzhi curiously.
Normally, when men heard about drinking, shouldn't they be overjoyed and ask for the strongest possible, hoping to get her drunk?
But what was with this Ning Fengzhi?
Why did he want low-proof alcohol? How could he get drunk then? If he didn't get drunk, how could he speak his true feelings under the influence of alcohol?
"Drinking can lead to mistakes, and if I drink too much, my hands will be unsteady. As a doctor, if my hands cannot remain steady, I won't be able to act when I'm needed." Ning Fengzhi quickly explained.
He was always ready.
However, Lin Xiao and Ming Yi seemed to have forgotten him.
