"I... we..." She tried to find something to say to end the deep silence that had taken over the room while the three of them stared at one another with different expressions.

"You want something, Brother Ming?" Zhe Yuan asked politely as he looked at Dao Ming. The latter kept his gaze fixed on Xiang Ling with an unreadable expression on his face as he replied, "I have some unfinished business with Ling'er."
