"No...nothing happened." Wei Yichen replied.
"Did you encounter any danger?" Xiu Fengyuan felt Wei Yichen was not telling the truth.
"No, I was just lost in thought about a question." Wei Yichen quickly explained.
"I see. Wei, you're quite diligent, no wonder our teacher always praises you. But we're in the back mountains now, it's not too safe. You should pay attention to your surroundings and your feet. You can ponder your question back at the academy." Xiu Fengyuan advised.
Wei Yichen nodded, but his expression remained somewhat troubled.
He had just been making excuses, that he had mistaken someone for Wanwan, they only looked quite alike; or it must be a misunderstanding, there must be a reason why Wanwan would show up in the middle of nowhere with a stranger.
