Zhuge Lian watched Fang Bai's departing figure, her face brimming with a sense of loss.
Ever since she met Fang Bai in Purple Flame City, Zhuge Lian had come to regard him as family. The fact that he was leaving now without even bidding her farewell truly saddened her.
In the midst of her sorrow, Fang Bai suddenly turned and walked back towards her.
Zhuge Lian's heart leaped with joy. As Fang Bai approached, she lightly bit her lip and softly said, "Brother Fang, you... you're leaving now?"
"Xiao Lian, would you like to come with me?"
Fang Bai stared intently at Zhuge Lian's fair and delicate face, asking her earnestly.
"Ah?"
Zhuge Lian hadn't expected Fang Bai to ask such a question and was momentarily stunned.
