Upgrade Specialist in Another World - Chapter 680

"Yunfei, are you awake?"

As Bai Yunfei was ruminating on the problems of yesternight, a knock on the door and a voice from behind signalled to him a visitor.

Snapping out from his thoughts, Bai Yunfei gave a small smile. Rising up to walk to the door, he opened it to see a young woman wearing a white-robe stand on the other side.

"You're a little early, Xinyun. You must've been tired yesterday, a little more rest wouldn't hurt."

"We were only strolling yesterday, what is there to be tired about?" She smiled, "But what about you? Are….are you fine?"

She looked up and down at him, only to see how bright and energetic his soulforce was. Without any other wounds to be seen, Tang Xinyun sighed inwardly in relief and felt at ease.

A warm sensation filled Bai Yunfei from the chest up. He nodded his head, "Haha, I've said not to worry about me. You know about my circumstances. With all my 'stuff' on me, a little wound will heal quickly."

"You say that, but weren't you covered with bruises yesterday? You only went to investigate yesterday, so how did you get into a fight?"

"Ah….that—well, it's a long story, but in short, I didn't really have a choice."

The two moved their conversation out to the courtyards where Tang Xinyun sat on a stool next to the central stone table. With a gentle wave of her hand, Tang Xinyun had bowls of congee and vegetables places onto the table. "Let's eat first or the meal will get cold."

A little surprised at the prospect of having a meal, Bai Yunfei acquiesced nonetheless. Sitting at the table, he took a bowl of congee into his hand and drank a bit of it. As the grains flowed down his throat, Bai Yunfei smiled warmly at the taste—the congee was quite sweet to the taste.

He kept drinking the congee, never once touching at the vegetables on the table, much to Tang Xinyun's displeasure. She pursed her lips so that her dimples could be seen on her cheeks and deposited some vegetables into his bowl. Handing his chopsticks to him, she asked, "What….happened yesterday night? You said you were only going to look, but how did you end up like this? How did you end up fighting someone else?"

Bai Yunfei pinched at the vegetables with his chopsticks and washed the rest of the congee down in two gulps. Eating the vegetables afterwards, he wiped his mouth and looked around the area. "Yesterday was…." he spoke slowly, "is actually my fault. When I came to the Capital, I….came into a bit of trouble. I never thought they'd go after you. But it's fine now. I'm sure they won't be causing trouble for us again."

The eyebrows on Tang Xinyun's face rose in astonishment, "Did….did you kill them?"

There was only cold fury in Bai Yunfei's eyes. "They asked for it! I was so patient with them, but this time, I've gotten rid of the problem. They won't be causing any more troubles now."

Tang Xinyun looked at Bai Yunfei. There was something off about Bai Yunfei, she could tell that much. The aura of one who was prone to killing was more palpable to him now.

"But….won't this cause any problems?" She asked him in concern. "Who were those people? Won't you be at risk of revealing your identity? If someone finds out it was you who did it, won't they…."

"Haha, don't worry. I was very careful on how I did this. There won't be any proof, they won't be able to find out anything."
