Han Youyue, Sima Qing, Yamada Keiko, and Sugihara Yui all followed behind Nangong Aoyue and went inside to talk with Xuan Wanzhu...
Meanwhile, Chen Tang stayed outside in the courtyard, chatting with his friends, when the Second Prince and Great Commander arrived after hearing the news.
"Young Master Tang, you're finally awake. I've been so restless because of you..."
"Hahaha... It's good that you're alright!"
Seeing Chen Tang full of vigor, with all signs of weakness from yesterday gone, the Second Prince shook his head with a wry smile, while the Great Commander looked relieved.
"I feel embarrassed for troubling you both with worry,"
Chen Tang clasped his hands in greeting, smiling in gratitude, and then shifted the conversation: "By the way, where did my adopted daughter and that zombie monster go? How are things now?"
This wasn't a decision he made lightly; since adopting her, Chen Tang felt responsible for guiding her onto the right path—this relationship was inevitable.
