章節 113: One hundred and thirteen. The source of everything

```

Tick-tock tick-tock tick-tock tick-tock tick-tock tick-tock—

The sound of droplets blended together.

They were like the world smashing in front of Lu Li, where a spread of light and shadow writhed and shook, causing ripples like those on the surface of water.

"Alright."

An old, familiar voice suddenly rang in his ear, clashing with the surrounding ethereal sounds.

Lu Li opened his dark eyes, with everything in his mind vanishing like bubbles.

He had just been reminiscing about the first time he met Liu Wenwei.

It was then that they got to know each other.

Both had similar personalities, both indifferently tempered, not good at revealing their emotions—of course, one could also say they both had poker faces.

Perhaps it was precisely this similarity that inexplicably brought them together. Though their relationship was delicate, such as always together from nine to five, with limited daily interactions, often not speaking a word throughout the day.
