Lin Ye subconsciously turned his head.
He looked toward the other Virtual Pod beside him, which had just opened.
Inside, Zhang Yuqing was also struggling to sit up. She dazedly rubbed her drowsy eyes, her fair cheeks still flushed from the intense battle before.
She wore the same expression of dazed bewilderment.
It seemed she hadn't fully recovered from the self-destruction.
Looking at that living, unharmed face,
Lin Ye's heart inexplicably eased.
An indescribable feeling of post-disaster relief, the feeling of 'we both survived', quietly washed over him.
He opened his mouth, and two words squeezed out from his dry throat.
"Thank you."
The two words were light, yet heavy.
Zhang Yuqing froze for a moment. She seemed to finally snap out of her daze and heard Lin Ye's words.
She looked at Lin Ye, their eyes meeting.
Zhang Yuqing's heart skipped a beat. She quickly asked, "Did we succeed?"
Lin Ye nodded heavily. "It's all thanks to you!"
