Hao Xuan visited Third later in the day without Jin Wang.

He met the person or the 'creature' impersonating as Fifth. If he hadn't buried her himself, there was no way he would have ever known that the red-haired woman sitting across from of him, laughing and giggling like a little girl was not the same person he knew.

How she looked at Third, with those loving eyes, even made Hao Xuan doubt himself.

Originally he wanted to kill or expose the thing for what it really was, but after spending a couple of hours with her and Third and listening to Jin Wang's words, he chose not to, or rather couldn't bear to.

He had never seen Third this happy before, ever. The bear-like man that exuded an aura of strict brotherly love was nothing but a lovestruck fool right now.

"Ninth brother, don't tell the others just yet. We'll announce our engagement after the war is over," Third whispered to Hao Xuan as he was leaving.
