Long Linger still didn't listen to Stephen's advice, recklessly climbing into the overturned carriage. She searched inside, and soon emerged. Under the burning flames, she's holding onto the missing ring with a look of delight, clutching it in her hand and placing it against her chest.
Yeh Huang stood by quietly, watching everything unfold, observing the look of joy on her face from the recovery, feeling a surge of gloom in his heart.
"Let's go home!"
Long Linger nodded...
On the way back, it was silent again, Stephen drove, with Yeh Huang and Long Linger sitting together in the back seat, side by side, but neither spoke.
"How did you appear here?" Long Linger finally broke the silence, after all, Yeh Huang saved her, remaining silent seemed inappropriate.
"Passing by," he replied briefly.
"Oh..."
"Why didn't Aphrodite come to pick you up?" he asked unexpectedly, "Oh, I got off work early today, and I didn't want to trouble her."
