After Geng Chen finished washing upstairs, he pushed open the door to his room and saw Shen Yan lying motionless on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. He didn't even notice when Geng Chen entered the room.
He closed the door, walked to the bedside, and startled Shen Yan, who was lost in thought.
Geng Chen chuckled and reached out to rub Shen Yan's head, trying to comfort him.
"What are you thinking about so intently?"
Shen Yan looked away somewhat embarrassedly. "It's nothing, you're done washing."
"Hmm, let's go to sleep. How are you feeling today? There weren't too many people, so you weren't too scared, were you?"
"Hmm, it's alright. With you all here, I'm not too scared. The human world is very lively, unlike the Mountain and Sea Realm. It's very interesting."

Shen Yan was shocked. "You...you recognize me?"
Geng Chen asked in confusion, "Of course I recognize you. There are only so many Mirage Beasts. I've been with you for nearly two hundred years. How could I not recognize you? Besides, haven't you been secretly watching me all this time? I'm not blind."
